then a fg dilo
Oh well that’s not bad
I meant like 50% to what percent case fg Omni is slower
When dilo is 50% is it faster?
That’s just
yes i think it is
i saw a sub dilo on my sub omni yesterday
and it was so fast XD
I haven’t even played dilo yet
i just stood there like... ehm ok, forgot they also faster till fg, gg
My last time playing Omni I had a whole pack of like eight and half died to one cera because they had zero stam and tried to run but just died
Can't wait for dilo to get a jump so no Omni is safe ever 😔
i cannot pop control them, even if i try to weed out the little ones ( sub else no food value)
on a carno i probably could tho, but meh do i wanna go out of my way so far
it wont
It's not?
it wont get a jump i think
Buff troodon jump the thing ways less then I do and I can jump higher than it
i did suggest it in the past to give juvis a jump that gets less and less high off the ground as u grow bigger ( at one point u lose the ability to jump)
but people didnt like it, i guess all the afk growers on raptors hated it
Troodon afk growing is just waiting to get stamina back and by the time you have a full bar again ur fully grown
😂 fr
Like literally
30 minutes to full grown and it takes 30 minutes to get your stamina back
i find it odd
when ur hurt as hell, ur stam regen is close to 0 , but why dont we get benefits? when we have perfect diet and are in the best shape of our life
Because the isle god hates us and wants us to suffer
Honestly at this point I would be playing POT if it was on steam lmao
fair, i think the vision is somewhat of a dinoshooter game in the end , mostly ai , but community is here for the dino simulator, at least i am
The isle is in such a questionable state that I believe will get better with time but, a quite long time
It's supposed to be a more realistic survival take on the genre while pot is super Arcady
Remember if u wanna grow ur Rex u gotta collect those pine cones
playing the isle sometimes reminds me of dino documentaries and u just living out your life, and i am all forit, love that this exists. Compared to other dino games this one still takes the crown. Bob is too cartoony, Pot = weird , i aint collecting bs sticks , and isle is just raw realistic graphics and dino experience
Bweasts owof bewmuda
Yeah but the “Dino experience” is far from perfect rn, but I believe they’ll get there one day
its a bump in the road
I just like the fact the dinosaur in the isle atleast move and look like somewhat living animals
yep, i can immerse myself
True
It's all abt that aesthetic
tho currently i cant cuz the "RUBBERBANDINGGGGG" but it got less after last update, so imma shut up about it till it irritates me again 😂
But the game can break immersion a little quick,
Truly the best dinosaur game is saurian 
Path is pretty okay despite being arcady, definitely has my attention, I'd love to play this game more if my laptop could actually run it without either crashing or lagging constantly. Though the rubberbanding sounds like a server issue and not just my system being poorly
Remember u can always play it on ur phone
yea but you'd have to play PoT
True
yeh the rubberbands aint u, also if u go into my youtube and type "fps" if u search in my vids, u should run into a little trick i got ( ducktape fix) , it boosted my fps from 30-50 range to 60-130 range
the game where a rex takes 10 bites to kill a megalania
Did not see that video while I was watching your solo omni plays (very inspiring btw for a legacy utah main), will have to check it out later and see if it helps next time I attempt playing!
our rex will pick that thing up and throw it
im also legacy utah main! hawwo
Legacy dilo has my heart
automaticly best friends now
legacy dryo is the only legacy dino i like lol
Eyy! It's been a long, long time since I played admittedly. But hey, I would be up for giving TI another go some time
15 newtons of damage 25 bleed crazy stat spread
Did try growing a troodon in the past a few times but I think it was during the AI drought
Troodon best dinosaur
true but legacy dilo is way weaker then our evrima dilo is imo, this thing can actually kill me
and legacy dilo was considered the "easiest of all" matchups for a utah
I only played legacy Dino to bite Rex's feet till it had 100 bleed
like i havent died to a dilo in 3 years on legacy, so i threw a fit when i had to fight naruto in evrima
i mean dilo... my bad!
Does the game seem playable at the moment? I have been wanting to try and reinstall and play omni for the first time since erivma launch, but watching the game has been a bit of a yikes
10 bites dead rex (legacy at least)
Sorta
you eu?
At the moment, yeah
intresting answer
Idk if they changed it but when I played legacy the thing with Rex is if you started biting it as a dilo or Utah it could legit sit down and wait the timer to safe log
alr lemme slide in yo dm's and give u a inv
still the case, biteforce ttk for a utah on a rex is around 2 min and 15 sec? (i might be a bit off) and on average with the reg its 2 min 40 sec
and this is constantly applying dmg
so yes they can safelog as u start to bite them
and log back on in the night, heal the bleed , low server pop so all the ai is theirs
as a means to recover
Yup
Yo is there something i can do if i got stuck between two rocks as a adult stego?
@hexed timber if dilo is slower than utah, it wont be a unter but a worse cera. Plus, it is faster but ITS AGILITY SUCKS, dont run in straight line as an omni, dodge its attacks and stop complaining about your own skill issue.
Yes it would? It's close to double the weight and has a much stronger bite? And venom?
It doesn't need to be as slow as Cera, just a one km difference would be enough
it would be ass rided by everyting, be killed by tenos that do someting more tan stay still and let the dilos kill them, not to mention ceras already outmatch the dilos and so do carnos
you're brain dead or someting? tey changed the alt bite u cant nomore use it while running
So don't use it while running, it sounds like your parents are siblings
bro and ure uncle is ur dad, stop being so toxic. your iq level must be low, if i didnt run away from cera or teno as slow dilo i would be killed
No one's asking for it to be slower than teno or Cera
but its still less agile than a carno
That's just blatantly false
if a teno ass rided it like cera, it would just bleed out and die easily
If you are getting ass rided as Cera you must be terrible at the game
It has one of the quickest alt bites
No one wants it to be slower than teno or Cera, they are asking for it to be slower than Omni, an animal that's weaker in every aspect outside of turning
i dont mean to be ass rided as cera, of course a teno can still kill a cera by some chance. If dilo was almost as slow as cera it could become the prey
then make omnis bleed better
dont nerf other creatures just because u play as a terrible one
No one wants it to be slower than Cera or near that speed????? They want it to be slower than Omni?????
is "?????" your signature mark or smth
i said if it was almost as slow as cera (45 km/h) which is still close to ceras speed, it would die from almost anything at that point
and its agility+ alt bite are quick, dilo would need agility of omni then considering it would be SLOWER than it (omni)
No it wouldn't as it's 350 kg heavier with a stronger bite and venom
It has better stats in every regard
so basically if tey fixed it dilo wouldnt need to be slower than it
plus logically it has longer legs, faster but less agile
It's a dinosaur that has shadow clone jitsu logic barley matters
if omni had it fixed, u could out manouver dilo and bleed it lmoa
It's abt game balance, dilo is currently the strongest carnivore on the roster by a large margin
carno can easily maul it
it can drift, as insane hitboxes and is faster than it
a teno can easily bleed it out
u just gotta learn ow to counter dilos venom
Yeah if you get hit cause your bad
If your trading hits against a larger dinosaur then yeah
you lost the argument from every angle starting with respect, firstly u said something about my parents being siblings, now being hit= bad
You called me brain dead off the bat
because you act like one tbf
nerfing more dinos bc one has an issue killing it
That's not what's killing it, what's killing it is dilos are faster and can run them down on sight
pachy can also kill it, carno kinda 50/50
Yeah, but they can run away
just like from dilo
And Carno has a much worse turn
use terrain as ur cover, and ur agility as your skill
what i dont get is how u can run in straigth line, come here and complain about dilo being faster than omni then wanting to nerf the dilo bc u dont know or u dont want to out manouver it
u cant just face tank a dilo
u need to bleed it
and ambush it
No ones running in a straight line and I'm not talking about killing dilos, I'm talking about giving Omni the chance to get away
i would only agree on speed nerf if it had ambush mechanic
its broken, how u wanna fix one with breaking another one?
its pounce sucks, probably be fixed in the next 6 months
and if u want to get away as omni, put ur headphones and start listening to loud footsteps
dilo is literally a carno but with worse stats
Basically what's happening is you have been playing dilo, a dinosaur considered by the large majority of the player base as too strong currently, and are on a power trip and don't want it to be nerfed in any regard
That's just not true so the we, carno and dilo are not the same at all
i would make dilos stam weaker
dont project i dont want to nerf it in any regard, i dont want jus to get dilo a utah treatment
which is the only thing people like you offer
if you wanna discuss it more, go on. Im free to talk.
which would give what
It would let Omni run away from it
1 km isnt even much of a difference
Yeah I know
its more of a skill issue coming from u
It would mainly only effect that matchup
give dilo worse stamina
and fix omnis pounce
plus if u wanna solo a dilo as utah, then mf there is something wrong with u
That's literally not what I'm asking for
neither
And nerfing its stamina would be a larger nerf than what I suggested
so buff omni
So it's faster? That would work too
my man whole issue with dilo is that its faster than trash utah and its venom lasting too long, the only thing what i agree to tweak on is its venom
bc nerfing a dino to give more chance for the worst dino in the game is ridiculous
Omni isn't even the worst Dino in the game
with its pounce it kinda is
Hypsi :
Better than dryo ptera troodon hypsi beipi Herrera
my ass only begginers plays it or for fun to blind others
Still the worst dino in the game
small tiers lack abilities
utah got punished too much, thats why its worst from mid tier. Bc who even plays lil dinos?
people who can get amusement from anything other than "hurr durr I'm big"
Lmao "Omni is the worst Dino in the game because to me the other ones aren't real"
Directional pounce is something that has been asked by members of the community for a long time and was once a thing
Now it's just a hitboxes/latency issue
doesnt disprove small dinos lacking attention
It's not small dinos
It's just hypsi
It has consistently been the worst dino in the game since its addition
i said worst mid tier, stop reading so quick or u gonna fail not just exam but life
No u didn't you
Said it was the worst Dino in the game
Dryo recently got new attacks, herrera is fine, ptera is fine (bar the bugged fish spawns) troodon is only "bad" because dilo outperforms it (but has an otherwise solid kit)
.
ure blind
Lmao throwing insults out constantly to try and make your point better is hilarious
said the one who (quote) ur parents are siblings
-you are brain dead
-your dad is your uncle
-your trash
-your blind
im throwing insults at you, then u taking vengeance and saying something about my family is better?
I matched your energy
i just got that energy from u
No u didn't? You started the insults first?
bro but u tink talking about someones parents is "matcing the energy"?
thats already dumb mindset u represent
like i dont need to be kind to you, but starting with "ur parents bla bla bla" is just off the line
Musta hit a nerve then
no, its u who gets every insults to their heart
then starting with parent jokes
dont require kidness from me if you answer with violence on violence
You haven't been kind or respectful in any way since the beginning, I opened the conversation up with a counter argument to your point and you instantly went to insults
saying that "if you run in straigt line u're trash" is an insult?
We'll see that's not what you said at all
dont worry im looking for it
Your argument is full of contradictions and it's already hard to follow with the spelling, I'm done with this conversation anyway
ye now lets start topics about my spelling, who cares if i spell like acoustic guy or like someone who writes books 24/7
I think beipi with its webbed feet should be able to run on mud. It would provide it a unique getaway and fits the character of the animal. This ability to run on mud should be exclusive to beipi as a neat mechanic.
Does anyone know how to open 2 the isle evrima at the same time?
why would you do that
so you agree omni is currently terrible,also just took my time reading your arguments and all i hear is you panicing that dilo will magicly get ass-rode by teno and cera, wich is not true if its 45km/h ? (its only 0.6 slower then omni) , dw this wont break your easy-mode dinosaur in the slightest, it just makes omni able to exist without hitting the dino gym and being above average with it.
idk both of you were being just straight up nasty to each other lol
Dilos r too op right now, they r very fast, they resist a lot of hits, and the clones made a lot of damage
is not a skill issue, what u can do vs 5 dilos and they clones? u cant do anything
i guess run is the only option
depending on what you are playing of course. groups are stronger than solo, and prey can be weaker than predators. surviving is winning and running is all you can do sometimes
new thing fun thing?
Yeah
But they should limit the amount of 1 type of Dino in a server at a time 🤷♂️
idk
im sure if they bring out brachio, every grass eater will be playing it or playing bird to watch how tall they get
its just the cycle of the new thing
yep. people who were playing the strongest brokest dino said 'heyoo new dino dropped, lets all play it'
No anything but Dilo
they also released herrera, who much less people play because it's not half as OP as dilo
it's absolutely more than "new dino hype", which often wears off after a few weeks
i wonder how many of the same arguments made supporting stego supremacy will still be made
this is like when they released cera and it was an endurance goliath that would run down most of the roster
Herrera just need a tiny buff to it’s max stam and it would be better
why would you want to play stego it's so bad lol
On gateway yeah
because prior to dilo it was the biggest toughest alpha
?
elaborate?
It can go toe to toe with a deino?
at no point has a stego posed a meaningful threat to me as anything but a stego
then you are a super player, and your skill set doesn't reflect the average player, and your viewpoint applies only to the top 10% of all the players
more that deino is absolutely dog-tier when it comes to punching up above the 4 ton mark, as its whole niche is "lunge and drown" and it can't do that to a stego
Exactly
but stego itself is absolutely garbage at fighting any apexes besides that, and we will see that with rex's soon arrival
for the average player, who doesn't have high skill ceiling skills nor the time to dedicate to learn that, stego hard countered nearly every possible averagely played dino
?????
yep
No…
its attacks and movement are too slow and sluggish to do enough DPS or escape a rex
it will absolutely die to the first rex that sees it
its weight, speed and DPS are too low
There are no Rex’s in gateway though
"huge alpha strike" would only hit rex's legs and do basically a tenth of its health
but until dilo, for the average players, it was the biggest badest option
source?
nah that was deino
i'd love to read it if you have access to the testing of hitboxes in a youtube vid or something
math. Stego does 1250 damage, leg hitboxes more than usually have a multiplier of 75%, and rex has a health pool of around 8-9 thousand
1250 x 0.75 = 937
You'd be doing a little bit over a tenth, but not much
source document showing that math? you state 'usually have a multiplier' can i see where that's from?
also stego's swing is very low to the ground. It's why stego is getting a brand new attack which will apparently be much more powerful and capable of going upwards
i gotta call bs here, because the stego swing was huge. was it nerfed?
in fact stego is getting a plethora of buffs just to exist in a post-rex world
…..
future argument, not based on today
:I
Exactly
when i think of good animals, i dont think of stego
we're talking today, on the server, right now. not of future and why its goona be so broke in the future which is why its bad now. that doesn't argue
He just want to argue 🤷♂️
stego has never been dominant, it is always somewhere, but has never reached the popularity of other "apexes" as you call them, because it isn't that good
again, you are a super player with high skill set. you aren't the normal player
deino has always outpopulated stego
its been absolutely dominant in the average player skill region
I’ve seen packs of stegos in 8-20 ranges 🤣
Not true (but it is now)
deino gaming was honestly a completely different game
on spiro deino was literally always in insane numbers. On Gateway, people generally started to diversify (with some omni and carno preference because those two were significantly overtuned). Then when dilo came out, that was the champion
floating around, eating fish, chill gameplay
i think you are missing datapoints
spiro had insane stego numbers too
my datapoints are watching a pack of 15 deinos run down everything in central river
i think people played teno, people played tons of stego. you could always find stego's around especially at that highland lake
i'd be happier if it did lol, but it didn't
?
In one spot?
your datapoints are ignoring our experience, where we say 'this is what we saw, this is what we experienced'. you don't get to say 'nah fam' and continue your argument when we have contradicting experience. you dont get anywhere convincing people that way
teno didn't see as much play because of the dominance of omni and carno
now teno is actually in a quite good spot, but migrations combined with the new super hotspots seem to be not helping them have any fun, and dilo is still the favourite child
More than 15 in one spot on spiro? And they didn’t eat each other?
nope, deino doesn't really need to
But they do anyways
they had fish, a billion corpses/bones
well clearly not these ones because i saw 15 move as a single unit lol
sounds like a multi boxer
Just because they didn’t need to does it mean that they don’t though
It would be rare to see more than five anywhere close to each other without them fighting (on spiro)
you found a single player who connected 15 times and was running 15 clients to win the fight
i don't think that equates to 1v1 performance
No, there were legitimately groups of 10+ deinos that would exist in Spiro
i honestly had more of a problem getting killed by stegos as stego than deino as deino
Primarily in northwest and center
Center was alway deino killing each other
Never saw otherwise (except 1 Christmas)
Bepi would probably be great right now, with so much focus on dilo
unfortunately it absolutely is not great
its fun as heck, what is not great about it?
i absolutely wish i could agree, but it has some really gross issues
- its stam drain for diving is still tuned for Spiro, making it EXTREMELY punishing to move underwater
- its dolphin dive (the absolute most fun thing about it), completely loses its vertical component when an adult, meaning that you go from leaping in and out of the water gracefully to bellyflopping clumsily over and over again, failing to properly capitalise on the speed boost. Juvis and subs don't have this issue and are legit fun
- no fish spawns
the worst part about a lot of these issues is how they make beipi feel... clumsy, which absolutely it should never feel, because it is meant to be exceptionally graceful
my dude, i have to completely disagree
-i played it recently, it didn't have huge stam drain for diving
-i played it recently, the dolphin dive didn't lose vertical component
-fish spawns are plentiful if you don't camp a lake and move along the rivers
where is your information from?
playing it
when, on spiro a year ago?
there's no way you played it recently if you think fish are plentiful
because there is an actual, documented bug which has caused fish AI to never respawn, meaning that the entire map will become barren of them very fast
are you meaning no elite fish?
no ANY fish
its a very big issue
made a lot of animals very hard to sustain (ptera and beipi mainly)
Is the fog bug gonna get fixed soon? 😦
@wide tinsel its more of a geforce now issue rather than the isle. you'll have to wait till evrima becomes the main branch.
When is that happening?
we dont know
ima have to agree with this, as someone whos recently played beipi for the first time(a few weeks ago, I immediately noticed the flaws.
fish arent plentiful
even in hotspots, and trying to move around is a nightmare
fish are literally bugged, so your chances of finding them are little to none
they need to add compy and or ptero to its diet
you have to agree that the juvi and sub stages are by far the optimal experience when playing beipi, right?
yeah because of its next to infinite stamina
try the dolphin dive
yeah its a bit less fun
it's subtle, but it gets gradually worse as you grow
you don't notice it because of the time taken
but spawn in as a beipi with admin, then grow to full, and it's night and day
i get that, but primarily my main erk is the stamina, but that applys to the system as a whole
i genuinely like the stamina system for the mostpart
i think beipi drains too much while diving but that's it
mhm I think it should freely swim underwater without draining little to any stam
i don't really agree
i personally think the fact that beipi drains more stam underwater is fine
because the entire point is beipi is fighting against its own bouyancy to stay down there
yea, i think it drains too much, but that doesn't mean i think it shouldnt drain
dude ur kinda contradicting yourself,
im not
its just an option, but I think due to its size a little stam drain would be fine
how about on land? I get its not a runner but when you are forced onto land because of deinos
as an adult I found its stam on land was eh, its just in ne lake tho
cause u cant see anything, weird how the chocolate water is less murkey then the mountain lake
Bro why u think it would be a bad idea to let herbis talk to each other cross Species 😄 guess you are playing your 10 ppl mixpack on discord 🙂
what a wild and wacky conclusion to jump to
Because different herbivore species probably couldn’t communicate with each other either. Most of them.
^ this, basically, but if it makes you feel better, this is something one of the developers said very recently
so SOME herbis of similar species will be able to communicate
Most of them ... doesnt change that Herbivores in the NATURE IN REAL LIFE ... are building herds together (LIKE IN AFRICA) why do you think it wasnt a thing at that time ...
Yes but this is normal ava and diablo or not much different
okay but a zebra can't communicate effectively with an antelope or an elephant
and usually they prefer to move with their own kind, not with other herbis
pretty sure herbivores will nuke each other for fun sometimes... or because they both wanted the same plant...
Like it would be nice if it were like ceratopsians could communicate with each other
It's a possible mutation
But not a trike with a theri for example
overall, i think herbis should have a healthy level of competition
I would still prefer to move with my own kind if I could talk to other species ... because you could make nesting an advantage or sth ...............
Herbis shouldn’t always be friendly to eachother thats not realistic
^
ah yeah the 10 people on a server with 100 guys who play herbis should compete yes ... I dont know see it different
sounds like a herbi issue if that little people are playing
you are not always friendly with each other if you can communicate
I didn’t say that😂
yeah several ... Migrations, Mixpackers (like you I guess), and that u cant even talk!
why am i mixpacker for not wanting a mixpacking tool?
than this isnt a point
it isnt a mixpacking tool ... discord is a mixpacking tool 😄
you're using it... hmm... suspicious
are you a mixpacker?
I dont want mixpacking with herbis/carnis but it would just be realistic if you can make a herd of some Stegos/Tenons
Its pretty obvious you can’t deal with people who disagree with you.
no reason to get personal 🙂
he immediately ran out the gate calling me names based on nothing so yea lol
so u dont like mixpacking in general ok ... I see it different
You legit did it yourself but okay buddy.
i personally think it's fine if herbis cooperate, but i don't like the idea of them all chatting to each other
i agree with Kw1, mixpacking under herbivores is sound but carnis mixpacking is just unrealistic
the point I wanna make ... your argument seems to be the realism ... but the reality isnt like it is
@limber hull yeah he is calling me out for something he did himself very mature.
reality doesn't usually have herbis existing in these massive mixpacks
herbis prefer to migrate amongst their own kind
most congregations of several species happens near vital resources, like water or dense food, but they typically stay away from each other in most cases
why do you wanna make it look like if you can talk to others you hate your species 🙂
that is... confusing...
You can’t take criticism man. You could’ve just been friendly but okay
in reality, most herbivores tolerate each others presence. They WILL become aggressive if another herbivore species makes a move they dislike, so it's less "let's work together to survive the scary carnivores" and more "you mind yourself, and i'll mind myself"
you didnt criticize me you argued and I tried to show you why some of your points arent valid
all species generally do not spend much time near other species unless specific conditions are met, such as a mutually beneficial relationship, or specific conditions in their upbringing that integrates an animal into a group of another species
I don’t agree with your point but you can’t take it. But its fine yk no hars feelings
Yeah that might be true ... but if the whole world would only have species of herbivores and 10 carnis ... you dont think they would develop some symbiosis?
i'd prefer getting to the root of why herbi is so underplayed and addressing that, rather than granting features for the enjoyment of the 2 herbi players
If you really see it this way we are completely fine ...
We can disagree. No problem
Migrations are a jail for herbis atm you cant roam the map ... you run into mixpackers who play idk 5 carnos and 2 Tenons and just kill you ... the herbis dont have same migrations (Stegos dont have NE for example) ....... and last you cant interact ... but u dont see my last point which is ok
herbis shouldn't have the same migrations
but yes, migrations feel like a jail, i agree
migrations suck but whats wrong with different migrations
I agree with the migration being a jail too. There should be something different because rn its getting boring.
all the time when i im migration zone i can find nothing to eat. Just food doesnt spawn there ._.
theres nothing wrong if you have more than 5 species ... atm you play stego ... your migration: swamp ... no one else there (except a hypsi sometimes you cant talk to him) you play Teno ... migration: NE you go there ... 3 pachys there no tenon ... 3 carnos with two tenons run to you and kill you ... if there would be the stegos too for example they could protect you from this hell
thats another big problem too but I think its just a bug
the boring thing would get better with communication lol ... but you could change the migration too sure
i dont get it...
different species dont interact with each other because balance...
and food...
no its not a balance thing ... they do it because "realism" ... it would be balanced if you can talk to other herbis (no carnivore gets damage when I talk)
having more species means less likely that someone else is playing same species, which means that options of grouping up lessen, further making x playable having smaller pick rate
ah sure but having 10 Carnivores is not a problem? 😄
pachys deal the fractures the rest of the herd runs you down - teno gets hurt - hides behind the five stegos. that is not balanced
I mean technically you don have 5 herbis because literally no one is playing dryo atm
you can't fix it, there are way too many species in comparison to server slots. and no way of grouping up aside from randomly running into someone
if you want group play is better to just pick omni, not demanding and easy to find friends
For me its not about communication but more about having to stay in a certain part of the map for a certain amount of time.
I see your point but you could easily fix this with excluding pachys from this chat ... or make groups like (Stego/Tenon) (Pachy/Dryo)
yeah this is the bigger Problem I agree
stegos shouldnt be mixpacking with anything. ever.
dryos are whatever because... its dryo...
wow big argument
whats it gonna do? kill you?
Still: You dont mixpack directly if you can CHAT
itll run around a bit... not much more...
if u dont want mixpacks hack discord and delete it lol
but it allows mixpackers to easier cooperate
yeah but only between herbis which isnt a big problem
the biggest problem with mixpackers is that herbis pack with carnis and thats lame yes ...
herbi+different herbi can be a very powerful group
unless that different herbi is like... dryo... or beipi...
you cant balance it without making solo herbis crap
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnJ5iFEU6xg thats my favorite symbiose
Fish • Watchman Goby & Pistol Shrimp • David Attenborough
dryo is actually insane now with its attacks lol, can 1v1 herreras and win
yeah than go play dryo 🙂
well... yeah... if the herra doesnt jump from a tree... which makes perfect sense
i do
besides herra nad dryo arent that different in terms of size
how often do you meet other dryos? really wanna know this
met a few once. got obliterated by a raptor but still
not often, but adding herbi chat won't fix that lol
burrowing, however, sounds like it absolutely could
thats true ... and there are several things that could be done to make herbis more fun to play then chat ... but I think the chat thing is a general problem with this game ... I dont know if u played Legacy but the global chat was an important part of this game
^
yeah and now you cant talk to anyone not even in the area and no one plays your species ... amazing 🙂 if people are toxic to you mute them 🙂
"everyone come to twins, if you see a brown allo with yellow markings, kill on sight"
there's no mute option lmao
I dont even want global chat but atm you dont interact with anything
and there's no option to prevent people putting out KOS requests on me for playing the game
not chating is an option, like cannibals do
dont know what you did in legacy but I never experienced that ... but I like herbis so ...
devs, we need more fish. gateway have way bigger lakes and rivers than spiro. why no fish in gateway?! T_T
as I said ... global chat isnt the thing I want ... ALL I WANT (for christmas is you) ist local chat with other herbis
oh, that, yea i agree
and there's the possibility of a mutation that allows you to talk to select herbis
this wouldnt be a thing if you give herbis the ability to talk to others ^^
It would. being a herbi doesnt mean you cant attack, since there are no rules on those servers
nesting could be a big social aspect of the game, but i rarely find someone worthy or willing to
no global chat no global KOS
yeah agree
global chat in legacy was for the whole map or local ? because a local chat cant be that bad right
global was all people on server ... there was local too ... like a small radius people you can see
yeah and the local chat we have atm for same species ... in legacy the local was the same but you could talk to every species even carnis
i wouldnt mind a small radius local chat.. but i know too well how people interact with each other on the internet... sooo... i get it people dont want that
then you should be against the chat in general ... I mean I dont care if I get called names by a stego or a tenon
Like that you use memes 🙂
explains exactly how i feel about it, yeah
i love a chat, and i very well can take it if people get nasty in it, but if it gets too much it just ruins the experience for everyone.. and i am not childcare to put them into their place
doesnt disprove that nerfing other dinos bc there is a terrible one everyone wants to play is a bad idea. just nerf dilos stam and add some more agility to it so it wont be killed by carnos whenever they meet one. And no im not playing dilo bc its easy mode dinosaur, but bc its new and i like it! i find it boring tho, with its venom its just stand back dino.
what i find annoying in people is that they can counter maybe not the venom but the dilos itsself and yet wants to nerf it more than its ability, as a teno use claw attack and kicks, dont stand in one place for it to let it bite you its not like a carno you can just knock out. and with omni idk how hard is it to run away from a much less agile dino- like doesnt carno exist?
carno doesn't have more stamina than omni
the venom needs much less time duration
also, dilo has more agility than carno
only if u Z walk, carno can also drift and dilo doesnt
no, it just has more agility
i've played both, dilo feels immediately more agile while trotting, sprinting and otherwise
okay but carno hunting dilo isn't necessarily bad lol
z walk, aim the target and then charge
agree
i don't think dilo needs more agility, i do think its stam could do with a reduction, and otherwise its stats are fine
people wants to nerf dilos speed so they can do a solo 1v1 with a dilo as utah
its main issue is the venom
thats already dumb as hell
i think the speed is perfectly fine
ye like less time duration
actually, i'd also nerf dilo's damage (on its bite and thus, on its hallucinations)
i would just make im loose 10% of is stamina when spawning the hallucinations
so liek after 10 spawns u can kill the dilo
or like 5%
i know
but i mean it uses venom, and not to be a nerdy stereotype but in real life venom costs some stamina for sure
i know that
but it would probably be cool if there were more dinosaurs roaming the map
pretty much all dinos are intended to be playables
i thought of something like the avaceratops in legacy
that's a playable
and it spawns as AI too
no, it's fully intended to be fleshed out primarily as a playable, not like legacy where it was merely playable AI
i much prefer dinosaurs be playable and AI be non-dinos
(it's why i dislike the rex AI they're working on)
well a large part of what sold me on the game a long time ago was the factor of playing a role of a dinosaur in the human reconstruction of like mezosoic enviroments
which you are
yeah
i guess the main issue is that hunting hogs as a dinosaur feels weird
hunting herbivore dinosaurs as a carnivorous one just feels right if you knwo what i mean
and the hogs and such just take me out of it
i mean, there's also going to be dinos hunting humans, and 8 foot tall human-esque disfigured creatures hunting dinos and humans
so not much out of the realm of normality for this game
not even mentioning the building-sized, heavily armoured apex carnivores with regenerative properties and a near-endless stomach
and the dinos that can create EMP blasts to disable human equipment
and that one thing that can change its form and size based on the biomass it intakes
i guess back to legacy i go
all created by the island's machine god that creates life as it sees fit and is worshipped as a god by the prior mentioned 8 foot tall disfigured humanoids
yea i think boars are kinda normal comparatively
i mean, if you're making dinosaurs, why not bring along some extremely expendable, quick to repopulate animals like boars, deer, rabbits and whatnot? Honestly makes sense to me
yeah that is the headcanon explanation for their presence i came up with when i first found one
i guess the line is drawn at where my suspension of disbelief can eb stretched
game really never has flaunted itself as hyperrealistic
look at omni, troodon and dilo
and herrera
and teno actually
can't forget beipi
cera too
wow there's a lot
what do you mean by those exactly
omni and troodon literally are not real animals
dilo can create hallucinations that damage you by laughing
herrera can climb trees like an iguana
okay fair ig
teno is designed nothing like its irl comparison, whos tail could never be used as a weapon
beipi is modelled after a juvenile specimen
i mean, it has the same lore. That giant EMP dinosaur was actually in legacy
never ran into one
because it was removed, and was sandbox exclusive when it was around
if we’re being realistic to a paleo ecosystem there wouldn’t really be any grass
The only realistic animal in the roster is dryo
Or rather, it was until they gave it a tail attack
i see
the game is semi-realism. The animals appear realistic, but there's plenty of physics-bending, history rewriting shenanigans
yeah ig
so it may feel realistic when you compare it to outright arcadey games like PoT or BoB
but it focuses heavily on a sci-fi element, and a fun > realism mindset
like, certain key facts like carnotaurus movement is kept true to life
carno was indeed extremely fast and inagile
i am glad they do shenanigans
they do many shenanigans
otherwise we would just tailride i guess
i guess i'll get used to all the weird stuff eventually
Reading the lore helps
Well
Tailriding wasn't realistic either
yes, what i mean - different mechanics = more fun and diversity in play
at least for me
smh when will they add the ability to die in such a way the predator is trapped adn dies too
realistic
they are adding burrowing lol
in fact, they're adding burrowing to the exact herbi in that image
yeah
so indeed, that could happen
do any of the in-game dinosaurs get feathers?
hypsi and beipi already do
but ovi will too, as well as realistic utah
oh and austro
and where to start with that?
i always thought the lore wasn't something the game has set in stone to say
i basically thought that it was something like "what if we cloned the dinosaurs and let them loose on an isolated island" kind of deal
Take a look at the pinned docs in #isle-lore-theories
i read through the docs and i understand less than when i started
wonder how long was it since the steam page was updated
also
are the small pterosaurs that seem to attack me after i kill things AI?
yup
I see
So firstly, you gotta pick the barbarian faction, because they have +5% mining buff
you gotta spend a lot of bloodpoints
To all the people mentioning the lack of fish, the devs have already stated they’re aware of this and should release a fix soon
Just hope soon is soooon
Saw that coming😞
@pale niche crocodiles actually have pretty blurry vision underwater, and I think this is a good way to differentiate them from other semi aquatics while also having them rely on their water sense mechanic.
Diving with crocodiles is not for the faint-hearted. In the channels and spillways of northern Botswana’s famed floodlands, Nile crocodiles are the apex predators. Adults can tip the scales at 750 kilograms (1,650 pounds) and spend much of their time lurking in the depths, which makes studying these toothy giants in their natural habitat very di...
Im all for worse vision underwater, but when you cant even see where youre going, let alone your face i think thats a bit much...
Not to mention some players can see fine with nv on, while some players dont
Crocodile can detect change in water pressure at the surface and undewater. For balancing reason, Deino is only limited to surface, ofc they shouldn't have perfect vision but they certainly shouldn't have a bad one either
i already can tbf, my issue is dying 4 min after i ate the bastid 🙂
the speed suggestion is because omni is weaker, but cannot outrun Dilo (or outstam it tbf), wich makes it on paper "dead in the water" when it comes down to it. and you were behaving like "oh teno will assride, cera will assride, no.. they wont, just as omni has a right to outspeed dilo (cuz balance) dilo also has the right to still outspeed teno and cera. But you litterally saying, "hey i like Dilo, its nice and dont touch my baby" ignorant to the overtune situation. all i seen u admit is that you think the combat is too simple, and that should fix if they tinker with the venom duration and require the dilo to do a fresh application of venom every now n then ( if they even gonna go with that)
also when i say overtuned, i am not refering to its hp or biteforce. Im fine with both those things, only thing thats properly balanced if u ask me. Just its speed needs to go from 47.4? to 45 or something ( below omni and above cera/teno) , and that duration has to be heavily reduced from 10 years to maybe 2 min tops at best (when purple)
@summer thistle The penalty is losing ammunition, making a lot of sound and emitting a smell of gunpowder that can be smelled from far away by every dino in the vicinity
If I knew more about how humans work I’d probably be more specific
If that's what you're afraid of, they're probably gonna be more on the side of weak and puny than OP
guns are a last resort
staying somewhere safe as a human is better
but you already know im gonna wipe out the dinosaur population
People go on about real life and realism but I'm pretty sure dinosaurs didn't see in 3rd person
@barren zephyr so you rather have legacy interactions where you can just run through the dinosaur with no consequence? xd
id rather not get stuck inside a cera every single time a bash into it??
then dont??? run into its body???
having the dinosaurs have collisions is far more skillful than just "hurrr i ran through it"
yeah, it sounds like you literally just dont know how to fight without collisions being disabled. many people can fight with pachy just fine, this is maybe the closest defintion to a skill issue in the discord
ok sure-
If it's specifically pachy, it could just be that the ram endlag is the issue.
no i bashed into it, then it tryed to run away, it coudlnt bc it was inside of me so it turned around while i was still getting up from the bash and bit me 3 times
like it did a whole moon walk, we could not move from eachother
Hmm, could be something with latency/lag or something then, performance is a bit odd at times. Cause it doesn't sound like something that would or should happen normally. And if it really is a problem, then hopefully there are better solutions than removing collision.
maybe not removed, but like.. rounded out, whenever i run into something i feel like the hitbox is a square rathere than a circle, i feel like i should be able to still run into things, but slide off of them so i dont get stuck
which it could have been latency or lag but i dont think it was bc i never rly lag on the isle
Saying collision should be removed is the reason it was downvoted. It gives people PTSD from legacy days where non collision was a horrible bandaid for restrictive combat mechanics.
Definitely should've offered a solution such as redirecting the player's momentum away from the animal it is colliding with, as the current collision system causes a lot of problems that you're correct about. You can literally wiggle into a stegos body and just chill with no danger with how it is right now.
i had no idea, i think ive fought maybe 2 people on legacy so idk
@distant osprey f2 starts the recording
im not in a place to talk about alot of stuff, but ik that it is increadably frustrating to get stuck inside of somebody while im winning a fight then die bc of that:/
Really?? Well damn. Cheers dude 
You're not wrong, it definitely needs a rework at some point and I think the devs even mentioned as much a while back
no u wont
@still monolith imagine how aduseable this would be
"a stego killed my utah? time to get my full grown rex and murder everything"
Exactly seems fair
nah id win
lol no
I can’t react to this for some reason #general-feedback message
Though I still like the idea
more than likely he's blocked you
he blocked me too, yet still reacts to my messages lol
i don't know either, but it is what it is
Huh then I wonder why it’s working now
oh hey i can react again he unblocked me
Interesting
im still blocked lmfao
This discussion simply doesn’t exist to them
lost two hours of growing my carno to a speed hacking baby gator wtf is this game man
2 hours? you should be an adult man
a baby gator shouldnt do much
thats because it was hacking
Apparently if you hit F2 you start recording but even so, idk if there’s anywhere to even report hackers. My recording didn’t work either, just showed me a white background as if it was inside a cloud or something.
bro he was hacking did you not read
dmage hacks as well as speed hacks?
yes
ah fair enough
i knew it was speed hacking but i wasnt sure there were any damage hacks in the game
he killed me at 100 % and another 65 % carno
i ran so far after killing my pack mate then he just showed up behind me
i've watched another carno die in such a matter
two bites and i died
Hacks work the same as in legacy. Everyone gangsta until the speed hacking cama show up. xD
hackers are bs
losers with nothing better to do
I used to staff for a community. Favorite pastime was to wake up 5 in the morning because someone messaged about hackers. Chuck them off a mountain, slap in some bans, back to bed within 10 mins.
ive gotten lucky with hacker encounters. only ever met one that tried to kill me... which he did...
its so frustrating because it was my second attempt at growing my carno because the first one died at around 70% to fall damage
the fact he was a juvie deino just rubs extra salt in the wound doesnt it
i ont think its completely useless... i think its supposed to make it harder for hackers not stop them entirely
people that hack deserve the worst
there doesn't exist a single anticheat that can fully stop cheaters
well anyways that just ruined my entire night good luck anyone else that dies to that bs
I havent encountered a hacker yet since evrima came out, maybe ive gotten very lucky
@bitter oriole Damage hack
It's a new hack
are you for real? EU1 is cramped with that. a squad of mini ceras onetapping fgs
Yeah
start over on a different server I guess
You may try to report hackers to an admin in the appropriate channel so they get banned
Make sure to report cheaters in the evrima channels - check the pinned comments if you're unsure on how to go about it.
evrima bug report channel?
check my message, correct?
Remove the location and you're all good. We don't allow locations, names or skins to be given, you can instead leave a note that you've got additional information ready at hand or DM them to us directly.
Sorry, I corrected my message
do people get SO salty over deaths they feel the need to hack in a survival game? Or ppl are just that bad?
A question we have no answer to. People mostly want to feel superior when cheating in online games, since you can't do it for monetary gain (in the isle) it's mostly that.
@stray jewel But Im using a nvidia card an still can't see anything underwater in lakes?
What can I do when my ping is 37 but it still keeps throwing me back?
happened a couple times now where my game crashes, or i log out myself (like rn cuz i was food bugged), and when I log back in, my almost Sub Cera is gone. Bodys not here, nothing so I couldn't even eat myself...wtf
some one how to fix it ?
yes i will
shoot gun
single raptor hears/smells/sees your location
kills you
lmao
@thin meadow Does the fog have a tan/brown tint to it?
You will have to deal with a ton in terms.of guns
shoot the raptor
😹
Ah yes shoot the polar bear sized Raptor.
polar bears die to guns
utah would be easier to kill with one
Yea, after like 5 bullets. And they gotta be big bullets too
have you seen utahs build
Unless you're extremely precise.
polar bear and a utahs build is much different
polar bear is more robust and bulky
utah is more lean and skinny
you cant compare both of them
two entirely different animals
I guess. But also emus have tanked several machine gun rounds.
slightly Evaded several machine gun rounds*
Some emus got hit with 4 rounds from Lewis.
Anyway. What I'm getting at is. You will not be 1 shotting dinosaurs with a gun. Iirc literally every gun will be incredibly rare. And the ammo just as rare.
I get some, Omni probably being the max you could theoretically one shot. But then not only do you have an Omni corpse, but also you just fired a very loud gun, and probably smell of gunpowder
yeah i said last resort
u said u would kill every dinosaur, not fight as a last resort lol
thats the average player
im not scared of some Cera
or a rex
you literally can't see rex through a basic bush lol
in fact im soloing a rex with my bare hands 😹
im more hungry
you can't eat rexes as a generation 2 human
im hungry for their souls
based on how the guns work atm, and how hard it is to kill even a cerato with one, unlikely
also the fact that a stego is faster than a human
I remember that video of someone playing a WIP Gen 2 with a pistol that had the rate of fire of a minigun and infinite ammo
And he was struggling to kill 2 juvi carnos that were stuck and couldn't move
erm its actually gen 2 smh smh
what ?
you bastard
what the hell
atm
atm they have infinite ammo and no sounds, which will be fixed lol, ceratos will be even harder to kill
@summer thistle I have been told, that when humans shoot their guns, it will make them them able to be smelled or something, the smell of gunpowder, also bullets might be expensive, and the gun will be loud, so there will be some degree of penalty I think.
Oh yea it's definitely going to be reckless to fire a gun unless you absolutely have to
Nah it's just gray. Eternally gray lol
You think you could show a screenshot? There's a bug with the Shadows setting that causes constant fog, setting them to Medium usually fixes it
Oh yeah I can once I play next 🙂 That might be the issue since others don't seem to have the fog when I mention it in-game
@swift tendon iirc punch has stated that they're trying their hardest to combat the hackers, many of them have to be banned manually.
sounds great 🙂
where is that located?
yes
#general-feedback message
Need some thoughts
Sorry for taking forever. But here's the wreched fog :k
Yeaaa that looks like the bug, afaik just changing shadows to medium can fix it, you might not even have to relog
Oooof that made it MUCh worse actually lol
Ah okay relogging fixed it 🙂
https://discordapp.com/channels/401464048610312193/401481371249541120/1197368199256215703
global was a cesspool of toxicity and weirdness. if people want it that bad, they can mod it in when the time comes.
group chat, i like though
@autumn bluff Set shadows to Medium to fix that, you're experiencing a bug in that screenshot
ty
thats why u put "Fix it"
If you know it's a bug, you use #🐞-evrima-bug-reports-🐞 and not #general-feedback
its a feedback too

Superlunary - do you happen to know of nesting being bugged? I just thought to ask since I did a feed back thingy on here but couldnt find the bug reports earlier
What problem are you having?
I noticed that in the past there was occurrences of genetics being passed down to offspring in nests. However in the recent patch there is no signs of that said occurence.
I tested it out on three different dino species with it to check but results were showing that genetics were not passed at all ie Eyecolors weren't even changing. For example; Every female hatchling looked like an exact copy of the mother but not even eye color was inherited from the father
Was the genetic inheritance removed or just bugged?
Hmmmm, definitely sounds like a bug, I haven't heard of any intended changes to color inheritance. Do you know if this is happening to anyone else?
It has happened to two other people who have nested
Nesting is a rare occurrence in the community sometimes but I do it most of the time I play as I liked the genetic inheritance in the system of it. I figured it wouldnt be removed out of the blue but also couldn't confirm it was a bug either. Since people aren't nesting I also assumed nobody would report it either because they wouldnt care or notice it.
Oh and it's also seen in a YouTube video from Anthomnia I noticed as well
i dont see whats so good about it besides making cannibalism easier
I nested today as herrera and noticed that
Both offspring were the males colors and males themselves
Yeah normally there's some type of inheritance with the genetics from the mom in males but it wasn't working correctly with this update.
Do players not know that deino has underwater NV? I'm seeing a couple posts with people upvoting them about underwater vision
What should I put on the bug report? I'm trying to figure out a good description ;-;
The simplest way would be to say that children are always copies of the same-sex parent and never get a combination of colors imo
Oh okay thank you
I'm setting up the bug report at the moment but I need to nest in game again to see if I can gather img evidence so thank you for the help!
i personally still disagree with the notion of removing them from officials and not deino, and frankly feel they add more than deino to the active ecosystem
also, removing another herbi from the very limited herbi faction because people somehow manage to get ambushed by it, despite it being garbage at ambush, is bizarre to me
I'd rather the interaction from a deino than the stego since stego being at the top of the food chain just means it's a gatekeeper to food AND water. At least deino only can use the water and cannibalizes. That makes it a 0 while stego is just a -1 when it comes to interaction. You can't really hunt it without immense coordination and a lot of players.
I agree with the herbivore roster but I'd rather see dibble and something to replace stego that isn't so broken with how tanky this is and power in one hit.
deino has more in the department of tankiness and one-hit KOs lol
That they can be not even fully grown and do that kinda damage and hide in foliage so easily is worse than deino since it has to stay relatively close to water or in it vs anywhere it wants.
I've at least escaped deinos. Can't escape a laggy tail swipe
I literally have never died to a stego as anything but stego
It is such a non-threat lmao
Then you haven't been bored looking for something to hunt as a carnivore before
dying because i decided to take on a stego is not the fault of the stego
that's an entirely me-issue
It is but that doesn't make stego less terrible for the roster
It just means that's yet another thing that you can't interact with it denies interaction because it has that capacity to do so
sure, but it moderates deinos, so that's reason enough for me to appreciate its existence
They don't moderate deinos imo, they jusy can't be brought down by them as easily.
They're just allowed normal water sources when others can't lol
They 100% can. Anywhere stegos are means deinos can't go on land
stegos stop land deinos from stealing all availible food and kills the overconfident ones
Like they camp the banks but that's it
A deino can go to another spot in the water or eat someone else drinking. Just not stegos
But that's it, any deino on land is already suseptible to the fact they're losing hydration and stamina faster
As it stands, deino isn't that bad on land. Can protect itself from plenty of things
yea but that's it, nothing on land threatens a deiono but a stego
Stego isn't one of them but
nothing else is messing with deino on land unless in a big group
Don't get me wrong here and let's not mistake the conversation. I actually like deino's but would like to see them heavily nerfed and more with a purpose that isn't so all encompassing. Stego on the other hand, can go where it wants, when it wants, and do as it pleases with almost no consequences. It just doean't provide to the game back. Majority of people who are about to lose a stego can just run and log too lol.
And that's fair, I agree deino needs changes. But my gripe rn is stego
One evil does not fix another. Just makes 2 evils lol
i mean, you can't nerf deino for this current roster without making it pathetically weak for the future roster lol
Considering it doesn't even have all of its abilities yet, I think it could afford some nerfs.
hell, deino's very niche makes it immune to the current roster
It's supposed to snap things above the water for example. Make pteranodons apart of the diet since its supposed to be able to catch em. But for right now, it doesn't. It generally exists alone atm. I think it picks up its own weight too easily before being more grown. You'll see juvi's pick up grown big things and it looks so out of place. It could afford more balancing, not just nerfs.
Fair enough 🫡 Stego does need more 'competition' though. I don't think removing it from officials is the way forward. I'd rather they add in mid tiers so the power spike isn't as large.
I'm just glad it'll be moving to the apex system. Good riddance to that thing
I hope they look into adding para, allo, maia and whatever else rather than removing stego
Force them to compete via food + have a somewhat realistic predator
agreed, but im worried about allo in the current ecosystem. Maia won't be enough to contest it
Para would be nice
Gimme other big boys but don't make them walking castles that have nothing to do wkth anything else in the game
i mean idk how to tell you this but there will always be an animal like that
like anky
I'm def concerned about anky and hope the devs know not to make stego 2.0
i'm hoping anky is literally just that, an animal that doesn't care and minds its own business 95% of the time
i literally want an animal invincible to most of the roster
I'm all about us getting more herbivores and fine with them being stego sized. But atm, if all they need is one hit to kill something and can eat 90 hits, it's a burden to the roster atm
ceratosaurus.......................
And that will be all you see
im so not excited. i dont play stego, but i very much enjoy its presence as an animal, so i'll miss it a lot. I personally don't like the fact that it specifically gets picked out, nor do I enjoy the concept of animals being banished to unofficials tbh
lmao no
slow herbivore that picks zero fights? It'll be niche at best
I like the dino, I don't like what it does to the game
I very much enjoy it
I love the concept of animals that aren't forced to engage in the deathmatch
As most stego players do lol
I hate playing stego
I don't even want to play anky
I just like them conceptually
As a part of the whole ecosystem
Shouldn't have to, but it also shouldn't be on dino's diets if its near unkillable or has no way to actually die
Do remember growth can be a part of that
I mean any animal on any diet is dumb imho
Also that, yes. Food should be based on what you can hunt, not what a list says you like
The problem with stego is that you don't need it to be FG to achieve that power though.
^
You kind of do, up until 4T+, you're surprisingly weak
Well a not FG one one shot our fully grown dilos
So like, under 60% or where the growth is these days, stego isn't as terrifying as people might think
But the smaller the stego, the lower the damage, but more importantly, the shorter the reach
Meaning that it's easier to bait, juke, and overall approach
Part of what makes baby stegos walking snacks unless you facetank them
With that said, growth curves could do with adjustments again, but so could juvie life being more fun as well
juvi stegos are so easy to kill, because they retain the sluggish attacks of their adult stage, combined with terrible range
Agreed
They also have terrible turn radius I think, or used to. You only get the decent turn late in growth, or used to
Got a whole lot of memories of eating bushes as smaller stego and taking ages to just turn around and get going xD
I'd imagine part of why stego and deino both grow fast is to get them to a point where they can interact with the roster, rather than just live of AI/eat bushes in a corner and otherwise hide
One sec
Moved to computer, phone in bed ain't happening when I'm being called out LOL.
My issue with stego doesn't share with my issues on deino or cera's or anything else fully grown that has that damage capability. A deino ambushes, it sits in water traditionally trying to get food and if desperate, it's going to come on land and get it and place itself at risk. Or deino should receive enough balances that being on land isn't super bad but it's also not a king either. In any case, deino just needs all around adjustments imo.... But it interacts in being a hunter, it sits in water and makes it terrifying to drink from open water sources. Its existance has a purpose to other dinos.
A fully grown cera is the same thing on land, except most people will run away from this thing. It's also a hunter, it looks for prey, if they can kill it or take it on being its size like a carno... fantastic, if not? cera's existance promotes people to have to run or hide. I had an instance earlier where I bumped into something else because I was running from a cera and I've run into this multiple times.
A stego? It's tanky, it one shots... it doesn't look for anyone or anything. It simply exists. You bump into it by accident? It kills you because why not. It's on your diet? Well GL hunting it because a single misstep and hunger becomes the least of your concerns. It eats in migration zones, it can sit on top of food sources that carnivores want just out of spite to bully because it has that power.
Deinosuchus has to cannibalize, ambush, hunt, work at least a little more at managing stamina to make sure it can drown what it wants while not being taken advantage of by other grown deinos. It's a 0 on the roster, it doesn't add to it by being eaten easily or hunted like the rest of the roster, but it does interact with the roster and cannibalizes its own, so while it doesn't give very much atm, it doesn't take away from the population either. It existing will mean a water source is dangerous or another deino will be hunted, etc.
A stego is a -1 imo, it doesn't do any of these things, a player being one of these means 1 less person we see interacting with another since... there's no reason to look for these, or interact with them since they one shot... you're very lucky if they die but they don't provide anything back to the ecosystem because they're not really believably "huntable" outside of LARGE packs and lots of coordination... which is rare outside setup discord calls and groups.
A cera is a +1, it interacts in the same way as a hunter, it looks, it eats a lot more than it should be its penalty is extreme hunger. If you're not keeping it fed, you lose that powerhouse and die. It's a monster but it's meant to be and earns the spot to be one because your nutrients aren't a guarantee and food very easily goes short if you're not in a populated zone. It moves players to other biomes if it's enough of an issue, it fights, it can be hunted/killed by another dino species... it provides interactions and has its own motives to interact.
/rant
Cerato literally exists to bodyguard lol, that's its core design principle
Right but a carno can kill one, it also has to keep moving and eating.
Stego can sit a long time without food or water supply, it doesn't have to move and even if it does, it can afford to without consequence
This is like the people who say hypsi is a -1. No growth, no need to hunt, can basically stay hidden its entire life and even if it is caught, it feeds nothing to anyone.
I think hypsi's a 1 tbh despite the fact it doesn't grow lol
nvm 0
it's on a lot of diets, it's a neat thing but it similarly doesn't interact with anything in a similar way. However, it's not -1 because at least it can be killed/hunted lol.
you can hunt stego too lol
When I do, it kills everyone.
because we need a few bites each and a few dips into where it can hit us while it only needs 1 hit each.
maybe if you're a cera or carno that changes, but then I ask why is this thing on smaller dino's diets?
because omni and dilo are shockingly good at killing it
Troodon would make sense if it did something with its venom to make the damage not hit as hard or their HP not so bulky
and cerato just scavenges anything it can
I don't agree with this lol
they literally are
not until the pin mechanic is in effect
then I'll say raptor can
dilo, that's very debatable without a group
not at all
I'm debating it so yes, it is lol
dilo can do around 5000 damage with how long its venom lasts lol
all without needing to engage
if the venom's functioning which most of the time, stegos go to a spot where they don't spawn.
this is also a dilo balancing issue imo, it should engage, the hallucinations shouldn't be henchmen
they should be enough to warrant a distraction and work regardless of being near a cliff, water, or mud. But they shouldn't be how you deal damage, they should be a means to an end, the reason your prey turns its head so you can go in for the bite. Not "do it for me because I got my one bite in"
This all also wouldn't be so bad if stego's tail swipe wasn't the absolute strangest thing to hit with. The timing of it, how slowly it whips out, reading how it goes out... it's overall so bad combined with latency. So you might've thought you were safe, but that tail apparently went 2 meters further ahead of where you were and caught you because ??????
Aren't you just describing herbi life in general compared to carni life up there? Sure, deino and cerato "engage" more compared to their herbi counterpart, but that's kind of how that works. And stego is way more huntable than people give it credit for. But if you're asking for more demands on stego to survive, that'd be fine. More herbi competition would be nice, and so on.
I'm not because I've hunted a pachy before, I've hunted teno's before, I've hunted every other herbivore or had a situation with them before. Atm a lot of what we're seeing is problematic due to how the mirgation zone works. However, in an ideal game where it's functioning in a way that forces carnivores to seek hunting herbivores in an area they're in because people are playing them... everything but stego is more capable of being hunted. 1 fully grown stego takes far too many troodons, raptors, dilos, etc to take down competently with coordination and numbers. Not accounting for how latency can ruin this too. Every other dino, you can mistep and take it on. A pachy can blind you, fracture you, so on, but you still can fight back if it's out to kill you or it can run away if you were hunting it and it afforded itself a means to escape. A teno still has to land a straight back kick or the tail slam if you're in range of its butt + some extra damage to kill. It's relatively tanky and heals a decent rate too, it can combo one shot someone, but only if you put yourself in the position that's literally directly behind it to be kicked.
It's always funny to me how people will complain about stego being unkillable but defend deino who is the same level of uninteractive but worse
I already made my claims on that, I'm not defendning that deino is fine and that isn't the conversation either.
Also 2 troodons are enough to kill a stego
I've seen a clip of it
post it
I don't have time to look for it I'm going to work
bet.
people say that stego uses the environment as a crutch, but its current design more necessitates it, because its base kit is that bad
It isn't that hard to envision
Stego's skill ceiling is so low, as long as you're sufficiently skilled you just can't get killed by one
idc how it uses the enviornment, I'm actually fine with it being able to hide or put itself into a position that makes it so its cornered but has the offensive ability to send its pointy bits at the opponent. What's problematic about it is the room for error is none against these things unless you run a tank or a tanky nutrition.
Unless you get a lag spike, but that's the same with every dino
It is but at least if I get a lag spike against a pachy, I won't be dead from that 1 headbutt they got in because of it
tanky nutrition? that ain't a thing
Depends on what you're playing as
that's health regen
and locked hp
stego it doesn't :D
explain
Because everything else is just that small compared to stego
because I was told it was something else
which is a problem
Obviously as a carno you'll have an easier time and more room for error trying to hunt something about 1/4 of your size than hunting something 3x your size
^
locked HP is a specific type of lost health which doesn't heal unless you rest, and takes MUCH longer to heal than regular damage. That's it. Protein isn't unlocking your hidden potential like you're Gohan, it's simply making the more slowly regenerating health regen faster
boy I wish our hud reflected any of that information
I was told it was a % amount of health from damage you take, like a resistance
misinformation fun
you think a straight up health buff would go ignored for stamina? Hell no lol
nutrition is looking less and less important to me the more I find out about it lol
outside growth
well i mean
nutrient buffs shouldn't be so insanely significant
it's why carbs remain my least fave designed nutrient
they're such small %'s that hardly go noticed as is lol
dude 25% is not bad lol
it wasn't until 25% scent/NV I actually noticed any-
exactly, but the others? nah
10% bleed resist, I tried it, it didn't look much different when I tried a pack of stegos earlier with some friends
still bleed, same amount of hits, still red health, still a lot of bleed
which I still don't get how bleed works, because it deals damage to health but running out of it in itself means death... but 9/10 I run out of health from it after a hit faster than it draining by itself
bleed doesn't deal damage to health
then how did I go from orange to red while running with bleed on
you are getting SO much misinformation lol
bleed reduces health regen and stam regen
also, bleed goes faster the faster you go
also, bleed lasts longer the less health, food, water and stam you have
none of this information shown in game :'D
mhm
so then nothing rn has lasting, draining HP value like a dot?
to health specifically
i think troodon does and that's it
and troodon's is VERY minor
I've never heard it deals dot damage, just pounce damage increases through stages gd apparently I know nothing about the game anymore lol or ever did
it does so little DoT you'd basically never notice
every guide, every page, every question I've asked, no one's told me it's a dot lol, god I'd love a proper guide system in the game to be implemented
not even a tutorial, just a page that says "you do this, this is how you live, gl"
Yes, the other, smaller and weaker critters are easier to kill. No dispute there, but I only claimed stegos are easier to kill than people think or give them credit for. Also troodons should never, ever, be able to hunt a stego, the fact that they can speak to how bad stego really is. (yes, you can use the terrain, as everything can, but the fact that you might have to is questionable at the least.)
That stego is on their diet is a concern for me :'D
My credit to stegos comes from the time I've spent playing resulting in every sighting with them resulting in a loss of a group member, me dying, them gatekeeping food I hunted for to bully, or water for that note.
omni has deino on its diet let's not try to think about it too much
They have yet to provide a good experience as far as I've seen.
That is indeed another one I don't understand lol
Not to me, juvies, maybe even very early subs. Hatchlings, if people nested.
omni also has cerato on its diet, the logic isn't quite there
Troodons having stego on their diet only makes sense under the implication you have a quarter of a server's worth in troodons that can all coordinate without killing each other imo. Which is asking a lot
