Yes, thats the issues
For now Just the body camping thing is good

torn void
#

Some practices will have debuffs, and these debuffs are realistic.

woeful latch
#

what if they killed something near the rock in hiding on top of? what if there’s bugged body somewhere? what if it’s a dead fish in the water? what if i’m nesting and there’s dead hatchling at my nest?

#

should i get debuffs for that?

thick summit
#

Realism.

#

Let's force our playables to sleep, to sit all day and make them die to infections

woeful latch
#

what if i WANT to body camp so a carnivore don’t eat to heal and come back to kill me after?

Because yk...realism

Herbivores don't get debuffs irl

I'm so glad the devs will never add something like that

How dare you to play the game!!!

Man

#

Yk what? You're right

#

In a carnivore but i wanna eat plants

#

This game doesn't even let me play it😡😡

thick summit
#

Nah just imagine you die because of some bs mechanic that won't allow you to properly defend yourself because some meta slaves send in their juvis to give you the debuff so they can kill you with ease

torn void
#

I can't even jump off a cliff because of these realistic mechanics, or even swim to infinity and beyond

No, thanks! I prefer to play a fun game

I don't think you realise that the game can't know if you're defending yourself or attacking something

How would you code it though

Body debuffs for herbis is one of the worst ideas in the history of bad ideas in this game's community

It would though. If you're being attacked by a group of things, and you kill one, being debuffed for your own success mid-fight is HORRIBLE game design

not gonna help. Say you kill half the pack, but they still pursue. What are you going to do? You've succeeded in killing multiple, yet you are again punished for defending yourself

Ok, I won't debate anymore because you didn't even read what I said, I'm trying to find a way to get around this in defensive situations.

And this situation has already been repeated about 10 times.

@torn void #general-feedback message LMAO, first point is just buffing megapacks or further reinforcing juvenile and fresh spawns in a pack as cannon fodder

And honestly you are completely ignoring how hostile herbivores can be despite being too stupid to not be as efficient killing.

Also body camping

I sure would love an infection or being forced to change nest because a fresh spawn troodon decided to die nearby

This whole feedback man

Carnivore kills everything on sight and guards bodies just for the fun of it ✅

Herbivore kills everything on sight and guards bodies just for the fun of it ❌ ❌ ❌

Only carnivores are allowed to be badass and aggressive apparently

woeful latch
#

it’s just when they find each other they usually stay together just to not die

normal shuttle
#

You have to completely neuter your aggression and become a passive, defensive walking steak when you’re a herbivore

#

God forbid herbivores be any competent or aggressive to ambush others instead of being ambushed, or saving plants for themselves

eat grass and meow

Fortunately, I can eat grass and not die because herbis are that cracked

#

Cry about it carni. The dibble will stomp you into the dirt once more if you come close

Ive had people crying in global at times saying very bad things about me all because I kick fresh spawn carnos to death as a galli or dryo

So…should I just let them grow and murder me an hour later? TI_Wheeze

Real

yet Galli canot eat juvis

So that’s something. A perfectly valid reason

In fact, far more valid than carnis other than deino killing for food when AI works since carno and cera can live off ai just fine

Source?

We could probably hop on any server and head to a hotspot like south plains, just to find out how over half of the players there are ceras, omnis, herras and carnos.

because i rarely see any herbivores

Play stego with a friend and you will quickly realize how big a problem it is to keep yourself above 120% diet with a herd nearby

lone kite
#

yeah plant food values need to be increased for the larger herbivores

normal shuttle
#

And I like that actually

#

Makes herbis actually compete and fight each other instead of cuddling together

woeful latch
#

yeah

normal shuttle
#

I hate herbivore (mix)herding and I love herbis and omnivs

#

To me a cera mixpacking with a deino is as dirty as a teno hiding behind a stego when I want to kill it

lone kite
#

yeah ive had times as Dryo where weve had to chase off larger herbis cause they were 2 fat

normal shuttle
#

I play galli and pachy a lot

#

And I always destroy the juvenile dibbles and stegos I come across

#

Even if they’re in a herd when it splits up

#

Because I want MY agaves/papayas/mountain ash (rare depending on your biome)

lone kite
#

honestly the smaller herbis mixherding is fine (like tenno and pachy since dieing to that is a skill issue) or Dryo with litterally anyother herbi

torn void
frank tapir
desert arch
#

Mixherding is just as bad, if not worse than mixpacking because herbivores dont need to worry about food at all

woeful latch
#

i kicked it and 2 called LOL it just ran to the pachys after

I will take the problems mentioned and make a second suggestion, the second suggestion will be more elaborate and the debuffs will be smaller so that the person still has freedom of choice, however, without encouraging actions like that

Having more, and stronger pack members is way more worth than giving yourself +15% health regen and +10% stam regen

woeful latch
# lone kite like a 10% dmg debuff at most and dont touch my HP or i stab u🗡️

hm.. i don’t like the damage part.. i think what we can have instead is giving better diet buffs.

like perfect diet for galli is everything, you NEED IT and i will never choose a giant herd over cool speed buff, other animals can get something too, but not combat related ofc.

like deino can get more time under the water with the perfect diet, or troodon can get larger pack limit, teno could get better swimming speed and etc

normal shuttle
woeful latch
#

so my idea is make every dino even more unique and better if it has perfect diet and that way majority of megaherders will stop to just be unique and cool

#

because if they’re in a large herd they will not get enough nutrient to get the perfect diet

if i see a dibble getting jumped by 4 ceras i will totally join and murder those ceras, i want a herbivore friend around, it can help me in the future, because i may get jumped by 4 ceras myself in 10 minutes

@bitter sandal the only thing I feel like you are really missing is a proper tutorial to learn the basic mechanics and skills. Even when fish does not spawn, you are very much an omnivore and can live off plants (and there is a very good and expansive spawn of edible ones right next to that pond) until you are capable of swallowing frogs or foraging for crabs.

woeful latch
#

50% rexes 50% allos lol

bitter sandal
lone kite
normal shuttle
#

There’s ALWAYS food

#

Always plants there

bitter sandal
normal shuttle
#

It is impossible that they just ran out because plants are scripted to spawn in from the very moment the server is up again after a restart and periodically regen

frank tapir
bitter sandal
normal shuttle
#

You just need to move a little northwest from the pond and there’s an area with literal tens of plants sitting around

In that jungle right there

Where were you even going?

😭 there’s no way not a single edible plant spawned there bruh

You somehow fumbled but I guess that is impossible because F me if I say skill issue or even suggest that something could have been done better

But it just reeks of that

bitter sandal

You somehow did something because never in my life have I ever heard of patrol zones literally not spawning plants

But seriously, that’s just unheard of. And I play mostly things that can eat plants

granted i was freshie so thats why i couldnt pick the lil thing up

I knew about diets not appearing and bugging but you can eat the plants if you really need too

call it my luck or what ever its just been a sh*ty experience with food spawns for me whenever i play beipi

bronze matrix
# bitter sandal what can i do to make food spawn? or if it has spawned and ive been walking arou...

the food spawning mechanic is extremely forgiving and easy to meta game:

  • when you don't have a patrol zone assigned it unlocks at the nearest concentration of non-nutrient plants
  • when it unlocks it unlocks the whole biom not the zone. so if you have trouble finding food at a patrol zone in highlands, you can just search the whole highlands there should be nutritious food anywhere
  • if you are in a herd, dissolve and reform the herd to have the patrol zone dissapear which then you go back to the first point
#

basically you dont even have to move as a herbivore to max out your diet

bitter sandal
#

but galee ive probably spent half my time on beipi jumping off cliffs or starving. not counting when i didnt know how to play or didnt know where to look for food.

bronze matrix
#

and if you are not in a herd just wait for a while in a place where non nutritious plants are
patrol zones refresh after some time on their own

bitter sandal
#

idk at this point I'm just thinking I keep running into a rare bug or there's something wrong client side for me (which shouldn't lead to these things happening)

bronze matrix
#

ah and if its about ai like schooling fish or crabs or anything
in my experience they are not linked to zones but more linked to multiple players being around
but I'm not really that confident about that info

normal shuttle

#

#general-feedback message @ancient sphinx the bleed is essential to ensure that the opponent dosent book it after getting hit and surviving the initial ambush, once the element of suprise is gone, herreras effectiveness is mostly diminished and it has no follow up capabillities to capitalize on the situation

#general-feedback message deino surviving in one corner of the map eating schooling fish and keeping perfect diet is crazy. Also boar, deer and turtles lmao. More AI than carno or cera but for an 8 ton apex this time who also has a base 90 minute hunger drain time

#

Ideas to improve deino life: rework the whole thing and make it not stink

wooden agate
#

it will be legacy apexes all over again, and everyone LOVED that as we all remember

normal shuttle
#

You are totally right

wooden agate
#

growing in a corner of the map for 6 hours waiting to hear an ava 2 call. that was really engaging gameplay

normal shuttle
#

And if you don’t agree you are a rampant deino hater

wooden agate
#

or sometimes you even had variety... with a taco or oro call. that was when things got truly interesting

normal shuttle
#

Which to be fair, I am

But I hate deino because it sucks ass design wise, not because I die to it often

wooden agate
#

im excited for deino kit adjustment

normal shuttle
#

Same

#

Although I prefer ptera rework but deino really needs it to not be a miserable experience for everyone

#

Getting 5% hunger and also carbs on a schooling fish you just caught is crazy

#

That is actually wild seriously

#

It’s like if stego could fill 10% of its stomach with one pumpkin

#

Deino would be so easy to maintain if so

#

8 ton creature getting 30% hunger filled from a 90kg elite fish TI_Troll

#

What’s next?

#

Deino being able to sustain 3 generations of its own with one fg stego?

normal shuttle
#

“HERBIVORES IN NATURE ARE NOT HOSTILE THIS SHOULD BE PUNISHED!!!!”

Meanwhile the game and its developers:

#

Completely accepting this is normal

#

And also balancing out herbis based on also other herbi matchups, not just carnivores

thick summit
#

Wasn't pachy shown to bully other animals as well?

#

Like, it attacked a kentro

normal shuttle
#

And in another concept a shant kicks a galli

thick summit
#

So it's designed to KOS TI_Troll

normal shuttle
#

Because OBVIOUSLY whether or not you can eat someone isn’t the only reason you can have to attack others

#

Including other plant eaters

thick summit
#

I mean hippos attack stuff for fun as well

normal shuttle
#

Or because they’re anywhere close or they’re making noise

#

They don’t like that and immediately run on to break up any fight or kill that thing that is in THEIR water

#

And this territory thing applies to other herbivores as well

#

Such as horses or moose

urban flax
#

Hippos attack things they see as potential threats
They have a very broad definition of what's a "potential threat"

especially in a 1v1

yeah cuse you'll die to the clones afterwards due to 0 stam

precisely

also regarding the pinning your packmate, I think that's part of the risk/reward tbh

#

not that I haven't had COUNTLESS times where I pounced a friendly that was nowhere near my destination

supple spoke
#

i think it is unnecessarily clunky, is all. perhaps if the pounce and pin werent so buggy, i wouldn't feel the need to suggest it.

indigo gulch
#

but I think that's more a hitbox issue

#

wait let me see if I can find the clip

golden horizon
golden horizon

U can also see in the clip I posted, where i wanted to pounce the cera, but the game was like "hey, there is an omni nearby that we can pin instead, lets do that"

thick summit
#

yeah that's the desync issue

#

it screws squishy things over

indigo gulch
#

pouncing your full stam bar only works if you can guarantee the death of the opponent

#

and even then, third party does exist

#

like, I'm never ever gonna 100% pounce a cera. That's gonna get me killed x)

golden horizon
#

If im in a big pack i just pounce till 25%, but if we are few, i pounce till around 60%

indigo gulch
#

not how I wanted taht to work xD

#

I pounced when I was at the tail

#

game was like nuh uh

#

this was my friend's POV and he is a bit laggy, but on my screen he was behind me T_T

#

but hey, at least I died and not my friend TI_LUL

golden horizon
#

Were you aiming for the tail, or the central mass of the carno?
Whenever i pounce, I always try to aim for the legs, cause the tail has no pounce slots

#

Also huge respect for your friend, i couldnt stand playing under 30 fps 💀

i ment to say that herreras shouldnt be able to kill each other by accident when jumping from one centimeter height, but instead it will knock them out

Im genuinely curious as to why some people think its fun to aimlessly wander around sanctuary looking for mushrooms, when you can smell every other plant that exists in the game, even those not on your diet? Why is this an asset to the game?

woeful latch
#

i think the reason for devs not to make shrooms sniffable is so juvies spend more time in the sanctuary, wondering around, actually searching

#

because it would be too cheesy if we could smell the plant that gives all 3 diets, BUT i want it to glow in the dark instead, because some herbivores have awful nightvision and it’s legit impossible to find shrooms during night

Very random getting something if you’re in a river

golden horizon
#

Is there like a dice roll or something ?

indigo gulch
#

That and of course guaranteed safe spots

golden horizon
#

If you mean wether if something is comming to drink from the river, its not a random chance, it depends on multiple things like location, server pop etc.

golden horizon
#

They are cannibals for a reason

#

With saltwater mutation, you can even get to places like west access and west rail where there are no safe spots

indigo gulch
#

Also

#

Most of the time you eat other deinos

#

we went from 50/50 to 90/10 ?

indigo gulch
#

I haven’t seen a lot of people that don’t use a safe drinking spot

unreal ridge
#

@sonic tangle shant will be about 18 tons if we are going off legacy

golden horizon
#

Like i said it depends on multiple factors like location, server pop, pz, mz etc.

#

locations like west rail access 0% of players can use safe drinking spots

indigo gulch
#

I think west rail access is one of the few spaces that doesn’t have a guaranteed safe spot

#

But it is very shallow so I usually just walk around to look for a deino

golden horizon
#

Its not shallow at west rail, you cant see if a deino is hiding in that pond

West rail has a safe spot tho

@tulip pasture deino or any other apex isn't meant to live off ai
With that said, I agree it's too opportunistic of a creature to survive on just players
The devs said it's getting a kid adjustment at some point this year I believe, so maybe that'll help fix things
Also the introduction of larger species means more food rather than just tiny meals that barely fill you

indigo gulch
#

I’ve had multiple times that I grabbed them but the game just let them go because the model would have clipped undermap

Just stay still after grabbing for a couple secs, walk forwards around the log, slowly turn back into the water

I’ve tried that

#

But it let go as I grabbed the dibble

#

(Yes I held the button)

#

Look, regardless, I don’t think it should be living of AI either, but currently it lacks any interaction unless it goes to hotspot lakes. Maybe it will get better when migration zones get fixed because I used to see tenos in the migration zone I was but now it’s as dead as a door

#

Again, I would personally just add schooling fish on JUVI deino diet to make up for elite fish killing you and frogs being rare af

anti-deino propaganda: any time you drink anywhere always hold sprint + a direction while you do it and just let go of E if you see a deino, the rest takes care of itself.

what i can really recommend and what I did recently as well is to play Pteranodon and to observe where AI tends to spawn

its just not a strong apex in terms of fighting

normal shuttle
#

and it is perfectly acceptable for an apex to not specialize in fighting other apexes

lilac bolt
#

yup

normal shuttle
#

doesn't have to stand a good chance against a rex to be an apex predator regardless when it can one tap stegos and potentially will be able to drown sub spinos, suchos or even acros

#

that is crazy strong offensive power

lilac bolt
#

yeah exactly its very strong just not in specifically fighting which is nice

normal shuttle

@scenic eagle as a local pteranodon enjoyer

  1. Nope, it is not 10 minutes nor anywhere close to that. To go from 0 to 100% you need a little over 4 minutes of resting
  2. You lose a lot if you fly up excessively because it is a pterosaur and not a bird, gliding and managing your altitude is your main flight method, and that allows you to comfortably cross over half of the map quickly or staying in the air for +15 minutes
  3. All of the above doesn't really matter anyway because ptera is getting a rework VERY soon, with wind currents to allow for upward movement without wasting stamina and also being more efficient on land so you dont need to take off every time you want to move
  4. You may be disregarding how absurdly lightweight pteranodon is compared to everything else, and on top of that it is not meant to have some weird eagle niche. Wait for quetz if you want to snatch things and fly away
lucid mauve
#

Yea its strong with grab, other then that its not much strong. And very limited. I know they have said its a apex and also some have said its not

normal shuttle
#

tbf deino being strong without grab would be very problematic

#

like when two people in a row suggested giving it FRACTURES and a stronger bite TI_Yikes TI_Yikes TI_Yikes

lucid mauve
#

fracture sounds like pot balance, off. Have that on the deino there. Stronger bite, hell would need alot stronger then. Cus you prob just gonna get one bite then whatever you bit gonna dip

#general-feedback message

What do you think would be fair? Galli isnt a tank and theres no reason a near fully grown omni shouldn't be able to pin it

#

And you can outrun omnis, just run if you keep dying to getting pinned

olive bolt
#

"Oh a deino hit me, wait i cant get away"

#

Especially with how quick deinos bite is

grand flicker
#

everytime i get swamp spawn as deino literally no food is found. Im currently in a hunting zone and have been for 15 mins, no a single ai has spawned haha. Anyone else have issues with swamp? or tips maybe

unreal ridge
# olive bolt Maybe a stronger bite but FRACTURES??

The only way I could see this is if they meant the lunge

Like you know how if deino lunges something it can’t grab it does a little tear and shake then lets go

100% giving deino fractures is a terrible idea but like for large prey, what if deino could grab onto like legs and stuff start thrashing

Could still probably take damage so be careful who and or what you grab

#

on a serious note, thank you for the copypasta

secondly, no

#

balance takes priority over IRL properties when it comes to these animals. deino fills a specific niche right now and needs help to further fill that niche, not a super buff

unreal ridge
#

So they want

  • armored deino
  • deino death roll ability
  • tail attack WITH leg break
  • remove deino from deino’s diet
  • bite force stronger than Rex
  • the ability to sniff underwater
  • underground nests (probably will happen)
  • and to make females larger than the males
#

what kind of super soldier do you think deino is

#

Let me try and rewrite this hold on

urban flax
unreal ridge
#

Whatever

urban flax
#

While technically, they're right, deino most likely couldn't do that because it was too heavy
It's not like it's immersion-breaking to have it

unreal ridge
#

Deinosuchus needs more health.
Give it harder skin, like an armadillo like the deinosuchus. Remove the death roll, the real deinosuchus couldn’t do that. Give it a bite force stronger than tyrannosaurus and a tail atack to stun attackers and break their legs. Remove deinosuchus’ cannibalistic tendencies and add a better way to see what you are scenting underwater. Deinosuchus should also take advantage of underground nests like the real deinosuchus or modern alligators. The female deinosuchus should also be larger than the male.(??? Untranslatable???) thanks for nothing

I would be mad if someone made be play deino too i can’t lie

deino is honestly the most boring playable at times because most of it is “oh he’s there, I will now starve”

It is just Deinosuckus and it needs that rework badly

unreal ridge
#

How do we feel about cooperative deino

normal shuttle

For a long time it has been the most boring, artificially difficult, uninteresting, unfair, miserable and also oppressive playable in the game

Deinosuchus manages to be both extremely boring and unfair for both itself and its prey

“We’ll use the power of friendship!” Ahh rework

normal shuttle

It is a bad experience for everyone involved

#

And it has been like that FOR YEARS

Which is crazy to think about

Yeah deino kind of sucks where it is especially balance wise
Because while I understand the 8 ton crocodile should kill me, why is he also like the most fragile creature in the game

They only play deino, get a terrible experience, and assume the entire game is like that

Oh you mean fragile in the way that it's hard to get food with it

Yeah fragile in the way it’s very easy to fall down a slippery slope of starvation

normal shuttle

But it is very much true. So many people play deino for starters

Because gators are cool

But then this thing, a giant prehistoric gator, just sucks

Okay first of all who goes to a dinosaur game and plays as a crocodile first

And also it is a noob stomper lmao. It undeniably is a noob stomper which is a terrible design for an apex

Neither am I but if you put a baby in front of me and I’m playing tenonto, I’m kicking it

The current problem with herbivores is they are easy to survive as, but not enjoyable enough to thrive as
A lot of the time I’ll see the migration zone change and just say “that mfer too far im not going”
And I feel like that thought resonates with a lot of people considering how once the MZ hits swamp nobody goes

I love herbis and omnivores. I just find most carnis cringe

I just love dinosaurs, I can’t stand when people get picky with what they play because they are all so unique

Also I lean towards playing the minorities because no one uses them

which is also why I hate making a creature more generalized instead of leaning into what makes it special
If you want a default carnivore add megalosaurus

make it into a gif of the guy writing and the paper lighting on fire

normal shuttle
#

Suggesting fracture on a deino tail attack. Absolute cinema

unreal ridge
#

I hope Shant or para gets some sort of tail whack

#

Imagine you get hit by a Shant tail slap and it’s just instant concussion

normal shuttle
#

Also shant was shown kicking behind already in the concept art

unreal ridge
#

I mean that was kind of the large hadrosaur defense mechanism, maybe not the saurolophines but things like Edmontosaurus would’ve had very flexible yet powerful tail muscles

#

they figured the best way to not get mauled by Rex was to make him keep his distance

#

Constant face slaps

#

See how it gets really thin at the end

unreal ridge
#

Shant has a much thicker tail so it wouldn’t work to the same extent, but Shant is also 18 tons

normal shuttle
#

Damn then, my bad. Thought dinosaur tails in general except for thyreophorans had rather rigid tails

unreal ridge
#

It’s kind of the opposite lol

#

Thyreophoreans had very rigid strung up tails

normal shuttle
#

Then how do they swing it

unreal ridge
#

Stego couldn’t sag its tail or else the muscles would strain so tightly it would snap

unreal ridge
#

See how many connections are in that tail? It’s like that one baki image with like infinite joints

#

Tail couldn’t really go up or down at the base since the muscles were so tightly strung for maximum power, the tip could move more freely for accurate jabs

#

ankylosaurus is WHOLE different story

#

Stego is a fencer, Anky is a guy with a baseball bat

normal shuttle
#

Well

#

Stego my beloved

unreal ridge
#

So basically anky’s tail was all the vertebrae fused together which connected to the spine where all the back and leg muscles tapered into it

#

Take your arm and completely straighten it, then whack it back and forth without moving your elbow or your wrist

#

That’s Anky

#

Cus they both did different things

#

Anky just had to sweep and hit the ankle

#

Stego had to hit testicles lmao

#

and we know stego specifically aimed for the inner thigh/center of gravity to cripple attackers out of pain rather than pure damage

#

But yeah, while most dinosaurs had tails for balance which they could manipulate and change very swiftly in any direction
Those with specialized tails for defense/offense had actually more restricted tail use

#

Going back to hadrosaurs, para also did have the tapering off tail more similar to edmonto

normal shuttle
#

I have this thing that I can’t shrug off

#

About a certain strain

unreal ridge
#

which

normal shuttle
# unreal ridge which

Suggesting one that I have been thinking about, for a dinosaur with no mentioned strains, so basically a “pls add x” suggestion for something I might need to draw

A few days ago I was playing in a server with altered muts and reinforced tendons gave you a jump with no stam cost, meaning that as a Herrera you remain in the air for long enough to regen the little stamina you waste accelerating and you can run infinitely by hopping like a frog

So I was thinking about a strain to make this sort of official and my head thinks that the idea is good, for a tissoplastic herrersaurus with a smaller size and maybe slightly less speed and offensive power but with modified limbs like those of a jerboa, who can be a lot more stamina efficient by hopping around and being a more capable roamer, and also having a high skill cap and more potential with jumping pounces from hills or while chasing something

#

And I just can’t forget about it

unreal ridge
#

okay hold on I do have something of my own idea if I might try to add onto this

normal shuttle
#

Sure

#

Also obviously jumping just as high if not higher

unreal ridge
#

so I’m thinking since this is a tisso based all around jumping Herrera basically cut off everything to be the most agile jumper ever

I’d like to base it off a glass frog
They can slow their heart rate and go almost transparent since they can store their blood in their liver while focusing and hiding

normal shuttle
#

Oh

unreal ridge
#

very thin herrera you can see everything going on in there, but when he holds still on a tree he can focus himself and go clear

normal shuttle
#

So invisibility to get better ambushes and land pursuer potential with enhanced jumping?

#

I mean, it could be a cool additive

unreal ridge
#

Yeah pretty much

normal shuttle
#

Peak then

#

And yeah that could be a good tisso addition. Suits them pretty well

#

Camouflage I mean

#

Although I am not an expert in modeling and animating

But imagine having to make an animal that is semi transparent and has its organs inside lmao. Dunno if it would be hard to do

unreal ridge
#

If I was gonna do a tisso Herrera my personal pick is to do the classic blind tisso, uses echolocation to get from tree to tree and locate prey

Plus the glass frog

And you know how tissoplastics are always covered in spines and other sharp scales

Give it retractable claws that only come out when jumping, I sound crazy but hear me out

Instead of using the claws for climbing it has really rough curved scales on the pads of its feet and hands that can adequately grip tree bark thanks to herrera’s slightly lighter weight

The claws are longer thinner and sharper

Doing less raw damage but more bleed damage overall

normal shuttle
#

To me it would be the glass frog jerboa

#

To be a high skill cap endurance hunter

#

Also with the need of quick setups and ambushes to play efficiently

#

With a hunger drain too quick to stick too long in one spot

unreal ridge
#

How would you feel about a hypo Herrera being quadrupedal and breaking bones

normal shuttle
#

Bad

#

Only Carch can be quadrupedal. And honestly fracture is cringe on most quick moving creatures

unreal ridge
#

I envisioned hypo Herrera also having fish hooks/arrow barbs on its claws

#

Instead of doing the hit and run of a typical Herrera he stays on

normal shuttle
#

I envision tisso Herrera with a second pair of arms

unreal ridge
#

The more you struggle and the more you buck the more internal bleeding you do

#

if you do get him off he’s taking a chunk with him

#

What about a neurotonic Herrera

#

Echolocation?

normal shuttle
#

I doubt all carnis are getting all three strains

#

So if I had to choose I would prioritize tisso in the case of herra

And maybe then neuro for dilo and troodon in the current roster

unreal ridge
#

Doesn’t dryo have a hypo

#

Am I tweaking hold on

#

Nope I was tweaking, it was stego

deino should get 2.5 per fish

#

bro deino now gets like 0.1

#

its impossible to survive in certain areas cause barely any fish spawn

#

and crocs eat boars and gazeles

#

which are similar to deers

normal shuttle
#

1% at best and we’re onto something

wooden agate
#

deino should not be sustainable purely on ai after 40ish%

normal shuttle
#

Yup

#

That’s like Rex living off boars and goats

wooden agate
#

(40% is only like 2ish tons on deino, its not as bad as it sounds)

normal shuttle
#

Stupid and unbalanced

#

Where’s the difficulty in having to find your own food or fighting for it when you can survive by attacking defenseless ai that doesn’t even run from you?

wooden agate
#

infact id argue that yeah, fish probably SHOULD be more common for juvie deinos. i dont think their challenge should come in the form of fresh spawn suffering from hunger, but moreso maintaining diet throughout its long growth and avoiding threats. the food should become something more worrying around 35%ish imo

#

but yah deino kit adjustment cant come soon enough

normal shuttle
#

Deino needs that rework and some tool to get around safe spots while also being fair for other players

But as it stands now, no change will be good

add boar or deer

normal shuttle
# thick ivy i liek growing deino because its actually hard compared t0 the rest

It is hard, but the way the difficulty is handled is miserably artificial

You have 0 control over your own life and it’s basically gambling until you grow because you have zero agency over what you can eat, you are at the mercy of other crocs, there is no way to escape cannibal couples and safe spots completely counter your playstyle so you depend on bad players.

And an apex as a noob stomper is garbage design because it makes it far less reliable

thick ivy
#

exactly why they should add some more abilities

normal shuttle
#

And then the hunting is just not interesting. It is camping herra but without the possibility to master it. Just a short dopamine moment when you snatch a clueless player after 15 minutes of waiting

thick ivy
#

like opening your mouth in rivers waiting for fish to swim into them

normal shuttle
#

They should rework deino as a whole. Not giving it a way to sustain itself of free

heady geode
#

simple fix is just re-add schooling to diet without needing to cook it, 1% minimum food intake, have you SEEN the size of schooling fish when a deino puts one on the shore

normal shuttle
#

Simple fix is reworking deino

heady geode
#

its as large as an fg herra, which give you ~4% food value

And making deino easier to maintain won’t really make it much less miserable gameplay wise. Just another mind numbing afk simulator

but Stillllll, that thing is so big, and it gives you .2% food

normal shuttle
#

It is fair from a game design perspective

#

You’re an 8 ton croc, a full blown apex

You shouldn’t be kept well fed and maintained by something that isn’t even AI, but just an animated, static food source that won’t defend itself nor is it hard to spot

heady geode

well going by the "cant be unbeaten" then, ig deino is apex

so it gets bullied out of all its food location and requires fish even More ; -;

hence circling back to re-add schooling fish and increase the meat inside each one

Carnos chase juvi ceras through entire forests and across the map, its not even on diet

if spino comes around, deino is meat, even if it aint diet for whatever weird reason, carno cant eat cera after all

normal shuttle
#

deino is likely going to be quicker in the water

#

plus it could be that we get some map changes to make some spots more commonly visited or getting migrations fixed

#

however if something like a deino enters a pond with a spino, it should get slammed for such a poor decision

thick ivy
#

fr i think deino spino fight should be 50/50

like spinos water turn is slower

deino is likely going to be quicker in the water and it doesn't specialize in hunting things much larger than itself

you dont need massive bite force on Isle's deino

I'm a crocodilian nerd. I know a lot about them and I do NOT want an accurate deino

they give you enough to endure 30 minutes more or so

#

That thing was a beast. We don't need it

normal shuttle
thick summit
#

Yeah...crocodilian life is quite boring

thick ivy
#

but i feel like deino should have some chance fighting spino because the water is the deinos natural territory and by the looks of the image spino looks like a beast

#

so deinos will just be victims in the water

normal shuttle
#

victims to one matchup

#

and I am pretty sure spino is gonna have trouble in deep water vs two deinos regardless

#

like at the bottom of water access or highlands lake

#

but in something like a pond? Deino gets mauled with no escape

thick ivy
#

still i think spino should be less agile so deino has chances of doign quick manouvers

#

like cera vs dibble

normal shuttle
#

thing is

#

deino is a giant crocodile, it can't be agile

#

and it also has rather low dps for its size against larger animals

Which really isn't going to be helpful by fundamental design against THE tank of the carnivore apexes

thick ivy
#

it is right now

thick summit
thick ivy
#

spino should have terrible turn rate underwater

#

because of its bulk

normal shuttle
normal shuttle
#

if anything it should turn relatively quick

#

and it won't be bad because it is a damn spino

#

it needs to be goated at defense

thick summit
wooden agate
#

especially considering it likely wont have speed on its side whatsoever

normal shuttle
#

yup, that too. And honestly in the water it has no real predators. It is okay and not unfair for this thing to be a slow moving, quick turning powerhouse because nothing can really target it anyway other than deinos reliably

#

in plural because I can assume 8 tons of meat can still afford a trade if there's more than one

#

no way spino is gonna put up with two adult deinos unless it gets some crazy dps ability or it can cc them in the water (not happening)

#

it's like the rex vs giga legacy argument all over again

#

it's okay for rex to have the upper hand against giga. Not everything needs to have a perfectly even matchup just because they're in the same "tier"

#

Not really very similar aren’t they

thick ivy
#

still think that spino deino fight underwater should be 50.50

normal shuttle
#

Why? Deino is 100% going to be faster in water since it is not at all in land

#

So if it is a 50/50 it would go like this:

wooden agate
#

not to mention, deino literally just is not meant to be fighting things that large point blank period

normal shuttle
#

Deino sees spino, goes for it

Spino is more skilled and starts beating it up

Deino runs away and there’s nothing the spino can do to catch it

OR

Spino wants to flee but it can’t because Deino is faster

wooden agate
#

if you have 2, sure go at it

but if youre a solo, and you know that you kill via drowning instead of raw power and still decide to go for the spino, that is on you

normal shuttle
#

I said it above as a part of basic balancing and game design. BASIC, not just in the isle

How is an exceptionally low dps character going to perform any decently against a TANK that potentially also has more damage?

So if you make deino have enough damage to be a problem to spino, then it is a problem for everyone who wants to go for a drink

thick ivy
#

people will be playing rex and trike which cant get grabbed

#

so deino is just gonan be pointless

normal shuttle

#

as if the spino is not also in its natural habitat

thick ivy
#

as it wotn be able to get most land dinos nd it has to run awawy in the water

thick ivy

# thick ivy so deino is just gonan be pointless

Wait for the rework to see if it gets anything that can help at all without turning it into a water rex

And well, you can just balance them out in a way that Rex and trike are…you know, hard to get

#

if you want to hunt/fight people larger than you, maybe dont play deino

normal shuttle
# thick ivy so much differny

Nope, because deino is designed to not go for things it cannot drown and it’s going with its garbage dps against a defensive tank that is also significantly larger and heavier who is also a water enjoyer

thick ivy
#

so the water fight should be 50.50

normal shuttle
#

And deino can survive spino in the water

thick ivy
#

by running how lame

normal shuttle
#

Just w shift or surface swimming

wooden agate
#

if running away is a valid tactic for spino, why is it not valid for deino?

normal shuttle
wooden agate
#

deino being faster in water means it quite literally would control the entire encounter

thick ivy
#

like in sp

#

i think sp should be connected to main rivers than

#

cause the only populated area for deinos to hunt is sp

normal shuttle
#

Also deino is going to be eating good as it can grab and drown 6 ton spinos with one button press. Is it really that bad and unfair that once it hits 10-11 tons it becomes an actual problem to fight an adult spino? The guy EARNED it coexisting with deinos

thick ivy
#

and now it wont cause of spino

highlands
river delta
various ponds around the map

thick ivy
#

guess what

wooden agate
#

if spinos are there, no one is drinking there either

normal shuttle
#

Ponds are going to be cleansed of deinos even with bary lmao

thick ivy
#

its impossible to fidn things

wooden agate

#

And also migrations could be fixed to solve hotspots. Done

thick ivy
#

exactly

wooden agate
# thick ivy its impossible to fidn things

you think spino being in sp (where it likely cant even hide entirely under the water) is going to just... ruin deino survivability? despite the fact people will very clearly see the spino and not begin drinking there?

#

if spino is there, theyre drinking in other places. go to those other places.

Not everything has to be a scenario where you have to fight, my blud

#

Sometimes disengaging and keeping your distance is better

#

Sometimes you have to let go

wooden agate
# thick ivy thats not the thing

so if spino invading SP instantly makes SP unviable for you (because it functionally is a swimming flare saying "hi im under the water and you can tell because my fat sail is poking out"), why would you go to SP if you know that a) theres likely a spino there, b) its driving everyone away from water sources anyway, and b) you know that you have less options of escape at SP

normal shuttle
#

And it’s okay, it’s part of the game

wooden agate
#

you're describing a problem thats entirely self made

thick ivy
#

i mean the deinos that will eb hdiding there

normal shuttle
wooden agate
#

why are they going there if they know that the river a) lacks reliable ways of escape and b) likely has a spino

normal shuttle
#

Completely their fault lol

wooden agate
#

"they need food" they arent finding it where the giant spino is sticking out of the river

thick ivy

#

It’s like being a dryo in the open plains and complaining when you get spotted by 5 carnos when it released

Duh

liek that

Dark souls interconnectivity

#

Peak level design

#

Although adding more water would suck for deino too, better use the one you have available in a better way

wooden agate
normal shuttle
#

Since that’s more surface to patrol as a gator

desert arch
thick ivy
#

connecting it to river is better

#

so deino actaully has a chance to escape

so the issue isnt with deino but with player activity around the map and 'safe spots'

deino should probably have more bite force in my opinion

wooden agate
#

no its a good question but you have to realize how bad it can be to take away your only source of damage by focusing it on one creature

normal shuttle

They’re like beipis but can afford getting hit and also hit you much harder
