#

Yea, it would

#

Especially for the newer players who don't know any better

knotty spindle
#

You can't even cancel out of the animation so it makes you extremely vulnerable

#

the Rex animation lasts at least 5 seconds

#

and is somewhat loud

mint gull
#

Mhm

#

@lime oasis upvoting your own suggestion is uneeded

lime oasis
#

sorry is good idea and most people wont like something that others dont like so got to make then realise its good idea😛

jovial arch
#

uh

#

ok

pure copper
#

Most carnivores don’t attack groups of large herbs head on to begin with when they’re close together unless they’re an apex chasing down paras and the group loses their nerve

clear turret
#

Should add another Apex carnivore to survival since there is only one. Idk, maybe like a Giganotosaurus or something? That would be cool. I seem to remember something like it being in game maybe, 2 whole weeks ago. But maybe I'm the crazy one?

@clear turret giga was removed bc it's being reworked, it's said to be coming back next patch

clear turret

I know m8, I'm making a funny

@jovial hazel

"A fix to where general chat is useable for more then 20+ people"

Can you elaborate?

#

Is it unusable because 20+ people spam the chat? Or does it only show messages from a few people and others' don't show up? If Other people's messages don't even show up, that could be a bug.

pulsar lake
#

The pachy speed boost okay @barren zephyr BUT the para need not 36.5 but 33.4
Just be little more speeder than allo and sucho, because cerato is slower than allo and such.

vestal rune
#

@elfin crystal We had servers with players over 100 in the past, however these were rather unstable so the devs decided to keep it at 100. In the future with further optimization it may be possible and to be stable but for now it's not.

Also I never really have problems with finding people

manic ibex
#

I'm ok with a Pachy speed boost, IF it also get a nerf to its stam and stam regen. You can't have everything

tawny dust
#

@pulsar dagger go on a sandbox server and use the same colors on the sub adult model as you pick on you juvi in survival so you can see

manic ibex
#

the EU2 server is on the way @kindred dagger

pulsar dagger
#

@tawny dust Yeah I thought of that but it's a bit of a pain going back and forth, and the servers I play on are full most of the time so getting back into it would be difficult

barren zephyr
#

@barren zephyr people will use it to turn around and murder the carni

severe walrus
#

@compact matrix lol good catch

native nebula
#

@urban raven we originally tried having custom stamina icons for each class on the main HUD but there were concerns it'd be confusing to players, so the HUD was standardized to always look the same regardless of class. Since the character info screen is supposed to give more detailed info, the individual species footprints are used there instead, although the screen is still subject to change so who knows if they'll stick around.

valid zephyr
#

@reef merlin why would alt turn be removed. animals can turn on the spot in real life.

#

they can also go backwards

leaden night
#

@reef merlin Stop trying to fight a Triceratops and also their walk turn is better than their alt-turn

#

So removing it doesn't help your illogical choice

reef merlin
#

i was defending my baby

#

but i remembered quickly alt turn are on for official haha

#

he attacked us at the pond im not going to let him kill my baby for free

#

was a good laugh anyway XD

jovial arch
#

If he’s chasing your baby

#

The strat here is not to run at and attack him

#

Just get behind him and ghost him

brisk mesa
#

You gotta pull aggro away from your kid...

#

not suicide into a Trike

#

lol.

jovial arch
#

Even if he has to turn back every couple seconds

#

He won’t catch your juvie

brisk mesa
#

^^^^^^

#

Harass it...

#

your goal isnt to kill the trike, it's to buy time for your baby to escape

jovial skiff
#

Alt turning

#

first why would a trike need to alt turn .-.

leaden night
#

^

jovial skiff
#

and why fight a Triceratops as a allo

#

I'd run away instead of fighting something that can probably one shot u with bleed

wintry cipher
#

a trike that uses alt turn is a shit trike >.> also. yes. get behind it. if it wants to chase your baby its going to have to deal with you biting at its ass.

jovial skiff
#

I mean sure I'd see a pack

#

but thats suicide too

wintry cipher
#

you dont actually have to bite you just gotta get close enough to make them uncomfortable. theyre only going for the baby because they can. they dont want to get injured so they will get defensive if you nip them. did that as a utah vs gigas when they tried getting my hatchlings even. it always works.

#

just need to buy the baby enough time to hide, and if you were out in the open well thats your own fault

#

need to stick to treelines to hide them

jovial skiff
#

Make the fat trike run out of stam too

#

they can't regen stam while standing

#

harass it

#

don't let it sit down

mighty girder
#

Why are allos hunting trikes and getting salty that they die lol

jovial skiff
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

wintry cipher
#

this isnt about allos hunting trikes this was a case of an inexperienced mother trying to defend their kid (scroll up and you will see). different scenario.

#

but if the trike stopped to alt turn that means it wasnt chasing the baby. so moot point

jovial arch
#

Allos can hunt trikes just not solo

jovial skiff
#

Keit either way

#

it'd work

#

don't let it get stams

#

harass it

#

it'd stop it from chasing ur child

#

if u can make it run out of stam

#

ur child can run away and u can meet up back with it

#

when ur done giving ur young time

#

so ye

mighty girder
#

if I had a dollar for everytime someone had posted that dumb igaunodon clip here I'd be able to get myself a nice blizzard from DQ z-z

jovial skiff
#

Im thinking that the combat overhaul would solve it and probably replace Alt turning from what I've heard

mighty girder
#

yeah

#

once they cleanse the code

#

p sure they're gonna try collision boxes again

jovial skiff
#

we might get more mechanics if the code is cleanse

#

and new fancy stuff

mighty girder
#

we're def going 2

#

they've said before that its pretty bad with how stuff is atm, hence why they want to do a full revamp

#

Even if they dont do collision, alt turn isnt just for combat

#

its for getting out of certain areas as well

jovial skiff
#

like at the edge of a mountain

#

if I had a dollar for someone asking for walking back

#

I'd get 23$

unborn wraith
#

gally sould be omnivore like in real life but like it could be blanced some how and eat buggs what would be in serent areas and a certent bug and eat eggs ,

pearl yoke
#

I’d like an omnivore but idk what to make it

#

Oviraptor could be neat

split notch
#

Omnivores have been denied multiple times iirc. But if it were to happen in some capacity, it would probably just be them being able to eat gore meshes, or maybe fish

pearl yoke
#

It’d be relatively weak so it’s not an easy to feed powerhouse

#

Yeah

#

Hoping for a mod

jovial arch
#

yeah trike needs to give more food trike doesn't even give as much as rex apparently

pearl yoke
#

Really?

#

I didn’t know that

jovial arch
#

yeah

pearl yoke
#

I knew Rex gave a lot

jovial arch
#

i feel like it should give like

umbral prairie
#

didn't trike give less than a juvie giga

jovial arch
#

125% of rex

barren zephyr
#

even tho

pearl yoke
#

But trikes so round

barren zephyr
#

trike is heavier

#

and fatter

jovial arch
#

yeah

bold fjord
#

trike thicc

#

confirmed

jovial arch
#

imo doesn't really make a lot of sense

pearl yoke
#

Heck yeah

#

Thiq

#

Didn’t it used to give a lot though?

jovial arch
#

🤷

umbral prairie
#

the food values are pretty weird rn, but I think the devs know that and will fix it later

pearl yoke
#

Then food values got changed

#

Yeah

jovial arch
#

well

#

one way or another trike could do with droppping more food

umbral prairie
#

yeah trike used to give a lot, then it gave less than some juvies, idk how it is atm

#

but think it's still weird

pearl yoke
#

Juvie Rex is a whole months worth

jovial arch
#

juvie trike gives a ton of food too thjo

#

dw

#

im p sure sub rex gives more tho

pearl yoke
#

I feel like corpse/ gore decay should be longer too

jovial arch
#

sub trike doesn't give a lot

uncut zenith
#

adult rexes can't eat trike ribs, but they can eat maia's ribs?

#

how does that make sense when the trike is the 'apex'

native nebula
#

@knotty spindle that's an intentional tradeoff. you have to consider whether you want to see better or track better.

knotty spindle
#

Ah okay

#

makes sense for gameplay reasons i guess

leaden night
#

@trail tide Local man already starts suggestion with an inaccuracy

#

Triceratops doesn't outrun rex in anyway shape or form

severe walrus
#

yes it does

trail tide
#

I literally watched one chase an adult rex down.

#

Rex got a speed nerf. Lol @leaden night

leaden night
#

Wait when

#

Why

trail tide
#

Yea.

#

Exactly.

leaden night
#

Why the fuck did rex get a speed nerf

trail tide
#

🤷

#

@leaden night Probably shouldn't be a douche like that though.

leaden night
trail tide
#

Ya butt.

#

Meanie bo beanie.

leaden night
#

Anyway

#

Uh

#

Un-nerf the fatso's speed

#

And give adult rex better turning

trail tide
#

^

leaden night
#

Triceratops' greatest mostly comes from adult rex being trash

trail tide
#

Yea, but if they can see a Rex and chase it down and murder it, kinda dumb.

leaden night
#

Though I really hope that was just a young adult rex

trail tide
#

Nope, it was a full.

#

RIP

jovial arch
#

well

#

the other day i was in an allo horde

#

and we killed 2 trikes with only 1 loss

#

so

#

there's that

#

technically 4 trikes but 1 was a juvie and another was a sub

trail tide
#

You can outrun em though.

#

and they could have not been 100% adult.

tepid echo
#

Who else would like a server queue to join function?

minor basalt
#

2 trikes with only 1 loss? How the hell

#

they must've been terrible considering their turn and massive hitbox

jovial arch
#

epsilon one wasn't full adult but one was

barren zephyr
#

@worn rover wh o t

#

allos are considered the best survival dinos atm

#

for canivores

worn rover
#

Like i said from what I've noticed maybe I've had very unfortunate circumstances

barren zephyr
#

you prolly had

fickle root
#

@tribal kayak they are working more more to be added later they need time to add them

tribal kayak
#

@fickle root hope so...game is fun but its repetitive if you keep chosing the same specie over and over.

fickle root
#

they are just making new models for everything coming like spino stego are some of the confirmed one that i know are coming

restive summit
#

Plus adding in new species requires a lot of work and money, and they want to get the game actually functioning the way they want before they throw in more models

#

Which means mechanics, the code rework, affinity, combat, ect ect

jovial arch
#

let's just be real tho

#

if you want trike to be unsafe

#

it's gonna be pretty bad

#

i think trike is fine as it is rn

#

to be unsafe you'd either have to make its turning worse or it's stats worse, and half the community would freak out if it happened

#

nerf the stats and it becomes rex chow, nerf the turn and utahs and dilos will pick trikes apart easily

tawny dust
#

@leaden night and @trail tide i've very late but eh, i justed tested on a deathmatch server and adult rex is still faster than trike :I

shut gale
#

@jovial arch making it so low weight dinos don't inflict damage or bleed on things like the trike would fix that. and they could still nerf the turn radius. making it so a pack of allos for example could hunt one

jovial arch
#

I dunno about that

#

The game rn is Rock Paper Scissors shoot

#

Small tiers beat apexes beat mid tiers beat small tiers

void kiln
#

try alt turn

jovial arch
#

Small tiers being relegated to just handling juvies would be boring

lime olive
#

and annoying

jovial arch
#

And Sean wym

void kiln
#

just in my experience apexes dont get fucked by small tier if they use alt turn

jovial arch
#

Well

void kiln
#

without alt turn ye, apexes get killed by small tier

jovial arch
#

I’d disagree, I’ve seen apexes get dismantled on alt turn servers

#

But even then

#

Regardless of whether apexes are beaten by small tiers small tiers can easily outrun apexes and just steal their ai

void kiln
#

ye starving them out is a viable tactic but alt turn servers dont mean your opponent uses alt turn... ive seen plenty of people get ass riden on official servers just cause they were noobs

#

biggest prob a the moment is hat you bleed out after any way

jovial arch
#

Well, admittedly, the sort of players that know how to pack hunt effectively are extremely rare. I’d say in general a max skill pack should beat most things

#

But uh

#

No ones that good

#

And it’s extremely rare you actually get 3-4 players together that know what they’re doing

#

Which is what you need

void kiln
#

ye every allo pack i join recently gets themselves killed in 5 mins or less

jovial arch
#

Yeah

void kiln
#

''lets kill the trike''

jovial arch
#

They just run straight at whatever they’re hunting or don’t go in at the right time

void kiln
#

ye no one seems to know you need a distraction on one end before you attack the other....

jovial arch
#

Yeah

barren zephyr
#

@candid thorn the first dinosaur was megalosaurus so

#

we need more ceratosaurs

#

like masiakasaurus or skorpiovenator

frail cargo
#

@real whale yeah no

#

All trexes would die from no food

#

And bite force doesn’t translate to damage like that

valid zephyr
#

@ocean vortex the bleed is the venom

#

It’s meant to be an anticoagulant

manic ibex
#

Dryo is planned to have a night vision almost as good as Dilo's. And about the venom, I'm quite sad to tell you this, but @valid zephyr is right. Dilo will not have any special mechanic for its venom, that's just bleed damage.

ocean vortex
#

rip

#

its satisfying to hit a juvie and walk away slowly and see it plop onto the floor

clever leaf
#

didnt they say that the bleed from dilo will still be able to kill you?

ocean vortex
#

@clever leaf you may have, but I have not

clever leaf
#

I mean

#

It'd make sense to still have its bleed kill

ocean vortex
#

yeah because it's super reliant on bleed more than other dinos, which makes sense

#

I can see it still surviving past the nerf, but it would be less fun to play, and would not very good at stalking herds anymore

clever leaf
#

Even other bleeders have plenty of base dmg to afford not having their bleed kill

#

not quite the case with dilo even with its 50 dmg buff

manic ibex
#

no, that was just a suggestion that several people made, me included @clever leaf

clever leaf
#

ah

ocean vortex
#

RIP little hit-and-run nightmare

#

I'll miss the days where juvies bleed and are surrounded by the parents hoping it lives, and then it just dies

#

that is one of the most satisfying deaths to watch as a carnivore

white torrent
#

This might be a’little bit of an unpopular opinion but does anyone else think the current trike model is kinda ugly?

ocean vortex
#

only the back

white torrent
#

Hm?

#

I don’t like the face

#

The way the beak looks, and the neck, and the skin under the lower jaw

ocean vortex
#

well it's accurate to how the real one looked like

#

so I cannot complain

white torrent
#

Everyone can complain about anything lol

ocean vortex
#

the only reason why I dont like the back is because at certain textures, a glitchy strip appears

white torrent
#

Also the beak can be changed

#

If you look at a lot of trike skeletons, yog can see there isn’t such a weird...gap

#

Maybe is a style choice

ocean vortex
#

I'm certain the deep seam found on TI's Triceratops is the the area where the teeth are stored

white torrent
#

Heaven knows they went with style when they made the v2 allo, hah

ocean vortex
#

surprisingly enough a lot of TI's survival dinos are nearly scientifically accurate

#

with some exclusions such as the utahraptor

#

Carnotaurus being the most accurate out of all the dinosaurs, fitting every body plan the real creature had, including its ability to run at incredible speeds

white torrent
#

Oh, I’m not saying they aren’t accurate

#

I just don’t like the model

#

It’s not a bad model, it’s better then anything I’ll ever do

ocean vortex
#

when you talk about this 'gap' are you referring to the antorbital fenestra or the molar seam

white torrent
#

Mm, hold on

#

I’m not knowledge able about the what the parks of a trike skull are name, so sorry about that 😅

#

When the mouth is closed, and yuh look at the trike from a profile view, the tip of the upper jaws beak and the lower jaw leave a large gap that looks funky in my opinion, I’ll try to grab a picture but I’m not home atm

ocean vortex
#

I think you're referring to the molars

#

if you look at a triceratops' skull, its beak is clenched with many grinding molars

#

that large gap is probably the skin that covers over the teeth

white torrent
#

Alright

#

This is what I’m talking abut btw

#

Just how much the upper beak hangs out over the bottoms

#

Always looked weird for me I guess

ocean vortex
#

oh

#

yeah they had an overbite irl

#

but yeah TI's triceratops' overbite is a bit exaggerated, but, it's still similiar

wintry cipher
#

Think of it like a shovel for roots and tubers.

white torrent
#

Alright

#

It does look exaggerated, and I know they did have an over bite, but the way it hang out to that extent kinda bothers me

ocean vortex
#

you know what annoys me the most though?

#

the trot animations of every dino in the game...

#

these dinos are like behemoths, thousands of pounds in weight and stuff

#

and their trot animations make them look like they're made out of air

#

they look so weirdly nimble when they trot

blazing charm
#

@scarlet root Acro needs more than just some stat changes to be considered for Survival.

white torrent
#

Agreed

#

Agreed with both of you- the acro and the trot things

#

Hell some of the runs

#

The diablo run makes this giant ceratopsian look light as a feather

#

The allo’s trot makes it feel like a lion sized animal

#

Meanwhile it’s a thirty foot long monster

scarlet root
#

@blazing charm i know it but they do changes for rexes why they can't see there is many dinos.. not only rex

umbral prairie
#

they mostly do changes for existing survival dinosaurs

next nexus
#

because rex is in survival

blazing charm
#

They change any animal that is in Survival.

next nexus
#

acro isnt in survival, if it does come it will be completely overhauled

blazing charm
#

Rex isn't the only one who was gotten huge changes recently.

umbral prairie
#

they won't put acro in survival anytime soon, it would need a big rework to be a viable creature

scarlet root
#

@next nexus what about shants, alberto that two was deleted from survival its time to add again

blazing charm
#

Hopefully they'll find a place for it.

#

@scarlet root You mean the injections?

#

Wait, Alberto?

next nexus
#

they are not in survival, if they do come they will be completely overhauled

blazing charm
#

Now I'm confused.

next nexus
#

how is this a hard concept

scarlet root
#

@blazing charm how long you playing this game ?

next nexus
#

oh here we go

blazing charm
#

Why do people keep doing this-

#

Since it was released, why?

white torrent
#

Is the rex getting a new batch of animations?

blazing charm
white torrent
#

Ah heck yeah

#

The rexes animations friggin suck rn lol. Well the walk a good

#

Just the running looks WEIRD

next nexus
#

@vernal siren dinosaur only servers will be a thing later down the line if you dont want humans in your game, unknown if any official servers will be dino only but we'll have to see

white torrent
#

probably

lament thorn
#

I think there'll be at least 1

white torrent
#

A lot of people will be wanting dino only servers

vernal siren
#

^

white torrent
#

Humans are going I be very very annoying occurrence

vernal siren
#

Yeah, I can see people wanting Humans, but I see WAY more people not wanting them

blazing charm
#

I'm still waiting for what Wiru was gonna say.

white torrent
#

Agreed

vernal siren
#

@next nexus Thank you for the response anyway my man!

white torrent
#

Well I kinda agree about the acro stuff. I just don’t like it atm. I can see why it’s not gonna be changed any time soon

#

Because survival stuff

#

But right now, for sandbox players such as myself..it’s annoying when your an allo, and you get chased down by a Goliath acro 😂

vernal siren
#

And by the way, as long as the Devs are fully aware of that people's will (of Dinos only) it's a step in the right direction already.

white torrent
#

Honestly

#

I like the idea of tribal humans

#

The merc’s are an eh, in my opinion, mostly because guns will be op. But I can see how human game play can be fun

#

People will of course abuse if

#

*it, and the devs can’t stop that

warped harbor
#

Oh no guns won't be a problem

#

Guns will be more of a curse

white torrent
#

They will when a big group of humans find them

warped harbor
#

You will hope you won't have to use them

lament thorn
#

Ammo is gonna be rare

#

Shooting a creature will likely only happen if your life depends on it

white torrent
#

That’s what it sounds like

#

But

warped harbor
#

Dinosaurs will remain the most efficient things as they are guaranteed to get better with time

white torrent
#

People always find a way to abuse it, that’s just what people do

warped harbor
#

I can see it being a little abusable in the very first version of the game with public and working humans

#

But even then, point still stands... You are signing to be fucked when you pick mercenary

#

As a tribal, maybe a bit less

white torrent
#

How so,

#

?

vestal rune
#

well tribals are actually adapted to the enviroment the same way the dinosa re

white torrent
#

Mercs will probably have access to buildings

warped harbor
#

Who's to say something else isn't inhabiting them?

lament thorn
#

Cause the mercs don't really compete with dinos without big guns

#

^ a base isn't only a good place for humans but a great area for the smaller dinos

#

So entering a building and being jumped by a family of utahs is probably gonna happen more then you'd like

white torrent
#

Well they might give them special access you know?

#

Just so human players will have something while they are defenseless

warped harbor
#

Mercenaries will spawn in with "something" but they will have to look for other things if they want to survive

white torrent
#

Most likely a small firearms

warped harbor
#

They won't be completely destroyed the moment they spawn in but they won't be cocky little apes either

vestal rune
#

nah I believe dondi said mercenaries will only have a knife and flashlight

white torrent
#

I hope not

vestal rune
#

or something else incredibly miniamlist

#

they will lol

white torrent
#

That’s a death sentence

warped harbor
#

And I think also a pistol with minimal ammo

vestal rune
#

I've never heard him say that

warped harbor
#

I remember others saying it, but it doesn't really matter what anybody says prior to their release, it's all going to be fine tuned later

vestal rune
#

ye

#

I mean there's very minimal difference as it's only if you can survive 0 or 1 encounter lol

#

you're still gonna try and avoid encounters as much as possible, almost buying "survival points" by finding more weapons and ammos

warped harbor
#

Human progression is going to be much different and probably difficult as only "surviving" ain't gonna cut it

#

Sitting your ass in a building (similarly to how dinosaurs sit in bushes) won't do anything for you as no other ammo or guns will magically appear and your hunger and thirst will only decrease

vestal rune
#

ye...

white torrent
#

Mhm

vestal rune
#

wow... that suggestion is uh...

white torrent
#

Humans will probably be the only omnivores in the game, huh?

wintry oracle
#

i wonder if people will be able to eat dino meat

#

for hunger

white torrent
#

Probably as a tribal

#

Meat, and berries

wintry oracle
#

but the merc tho might have food in the buildings?

umbral prairie
#

@lone hatch would be abused for food

white torrent
#

Which brings me to this

vestal rune
#

rex isn't OP, if anything it's actually underpowered lol

white torrent
#

I wonder if there will be different classes of tribals and mercs

wintry oracle
#

probably with time but not rigt away

vestal rune
#

there was concept art of such a thing in the past, idk now

wintry oracle
#

right now i think there’s only one model for each

white torrent
#

Tribals have hunter and gatherer things, and humans will have mercenaries and researchers

vestal rune
#

we haven't seen any models for the humans I don't think

#

the placeholder tribal model is definetly temporary, idk about the merc model though

white torrent
#

We have for the mercenaries, and we have concept art of the horribly mutated(possibly inbred) tribals

vestal rune
#

has there been concept art for the final product?

white torrent
#

I believe so

vestal rune
#

I've only seen just basic concept art from a wihle ago

#

actually yes I remember

#

dondi showed it in his QA stream

white torrent
#

Being inbred would explain why they are mutated and so violent

vestal rune
#

hmm I also think there's some lore reasons for that too

white torrent
#

I wonder how much variation the humans will have beyond basic skin coloring(black, white, Mexican) all that

#

That’s why I brought up human classes

#

A berry gatherer night look different than a hunter

#

*might

#

I remember when they had horse models in the test level 😂

#

Utah raptor hunting a horse ridden tribal

#

Whack haha

#

Wait I worded that wrong

vestal rune
#

@lone hatch There's gonna be a more complex spawning system in the future, for now you can just nest. V3 is just fine, could use a little more players but tbh even that's not even true. Rex is not OP, from what I heard it's actually struggling. We don't need more dinos, Quality>Quantity. Rex needs bb... or it won't be able to hunt anything. More AI are very much planned. Idk about how giga is now, hopefully it will be better too. And no.... just no... Quetz and hypos are broken and not ready

white torrent
#

A tribal ridden horse

#

Trex being op? In damage yes but

#

It’s far from op

#

As a creature

#

Spinosaurus kills it, a decent sized dilo pack can get the job done

#

A single trike can unleash a can of whoopass on a pair of rexes

vestal rune
#

rex is not OP in damage

#

the damage is the only thing that makes it good lol

lone hatch
#

a lot of stamina too, spino is loosing with rex 1v1

#

he has more stamina than giga😄

waxen elk
#

Seeing people still say a Utahraptor should survive Allosaurus lowers my faith in humanity tbh.

vestal rune
#

matchups against non-survival dinos don't matter

#

also he needs the stam to find food for his insatiable appetite

lone hatch
#

but his dmg, stam, breaking legs..

vestal rune
#

are things that counteract his flaws of Hilariously slow speed, Intense hunger needs and overall clunkiness

#

all dinos have their ups and downs dude

#

it's how you balance them

umbral prairie
#

of course it is hard to fight a rex solo as long as you aren't a trike/rex, but it's really not op, even a bunch of decent dilos can kill a rex atm

vestal rune
#

ye... like I said, rexes if anything need a buff

umbral prairie
#

damage is what makes rex a viable creature

languid ember
#

no, ai is what makes rex somewhat viable lol

umbral prairie
#

ok, damage is what should make rex a viable creature

#

but it isn't at the moment because food values and balancing of are weird atm

languid ember
#

rex ambush buff wen

vestal rune
#

doesn't rex have a semi-decent abmush?

umbral prairie
#

hopefully rex gets better with the new anims it'll get

languid ember
#

rex ambush is garbage

vestal rune
#

it should be really slow with a fast and quick ambush

leaden night
#

Rex ambush doesn't even catch Dibble

languid ember
#

rex ambush is like 15 cm/s faster than giga base run

waxen elk
#

Fast short ambush

vestal rune
#

ah oof

#

don't play rex much so idk lol

umbral prairie
#

also rex has endurance-hunter like stam but is too slow to be one

leaden night
#

Just give it more stam

languid ember
#

give it better ambush peepoSREGG

vestal rune
#

rex shouldn't even be an endurance hunter lol

#

#BetterAmbushShittierStam

languid ember
#

it's not an endurance hunter tho

#

@restive viper flyers are easily abused and exploitable

#

they never were in the game, it was just a test run

#

as far as ive heard the devs have a way to make them viable, they just wont share it

vestal rune
#

they don't wanna raise hopes in case it doesn't work lmao

jovial skiff
#

Im just reading these suggestions

unborn wraith
#

@restive viper they where in the game along time ago only 1 a qetzul

lament thorn
#

They weren't actually 'in the game' it was just for testing

mental sleet
#

meh

limpid dove
#

any reason why I got pinged

vestal rune
#

@fathom idol honestly what are you on about?

#

just because people complain means they can't be ingame?

restive summit
#

"People complain too much and want all the herbivores nerfed so lets just removed them all together from survival so they have nothing to complain about"

#

But. Why though.

fathom idol
#

Herbs were never ment to be playable remember...

restive summit
#

Not true

leaden night
#

Actually he is correct

vestal rune
#

they weren't...

#

but who cares?

restive summit
#

Thought it was a rumor?

leaden night
#

Originally the game was planned to only have 3 playables

vestal rune
#

no dinos were meant to be playable originally

#

but look at the game now

leaden night
#

Herbivores are here and playable now

vestal rune
#

^

leaden night
#

And that won't change

vestal rune
#

same with every other dino lmao

restive summit
#

I still do not see a reason to remove the herbivores from survival just because babies are whining about not being able to 1v1 a Trike as a Carno

fathom idol
#

Im just saying that carn players will keep on b*** about herbs needing a nerf because they cant kill them. Well.. if you make em AI, the big ones i mean, they can kill them and then they dont have to complain about it.

restive summit
#

But that punishes all the people who play Isle for the herbivores for no reason????

vestal rune
#

they'll still complain about the herbs because they'll still be ingame...

#

that literally makes no sense

fathom idol
#

Trust me im playing a ton of herbs but its the herbs that get nerved all the time

restive summit
#

And?

pure copper
#

All I saw was “remove Herbivores from survival”

#

So you’re gonna let people play a whole subdivision of dinosaurs for 3 years then take it out? Bad idea hombre

restive summit
#

People will ALWAYS complain, even if you take Herbivores out they will move on to complaining about eachother, it's human nature to whine and bitch

vestal rune
#

herbivore players complain about carnivores, by the exact same logic we should remove carnivores

restive summit
#

^

pure copper
#

The whole “herbs were never meant to be playable thing” was before the games release

#

That’s ancient history my homie

restive summit
#

Ancient and outdated

leaden night
#

Though carnivores tend to avoid being fully nerfed into the ground

vestal rune
#

like legit every dino was not meant to be playabl at one point

#

it was originally meant to be only humans

pure copper
#

Nesting wasn’t meant to be in at one point

vestal rune
#

and look at it now

restive summit
#

To be fair, in nature, predators only succeed like 1 out of every 10 hunts or something, depending on the animal, so I'd honestly like to see Carnivores work for their food, I'd like to see more mechanics for ambush, more "you have to time this right" stuff.

But we can't get everything we want, and whatever is coming to the game that we are unaware of will get here when it gets here

#

If a pack of allo's were coordinated enough and timed each attack right and took me down as a Trike main, I'd be fucking overjoyed. Like, godamn good job, pat on the back, you deserve my dead body.

I wouldn't cry and bitch that I died

valid zephyr
#

i still here the herbis being removed line on a regular basis

pure copper
#

Kindve annoying

restive summit
#

Yeah it is

valid zephyr
#

pretty sure it aint true due to brand new ones being brought out to play

fathom idol
#

They wont be, its just a suggestion

pure copper
#

It’s literally just “I died because this herd wouldn’t let me eat one of their members , remove herbs plz”

fathom idol
#

If you make the so called OP herbs AI, nobody will complain about dying to them, thats the point

restive summit
#

Stego is getting a remodel, as well as being tossed into survival, as well as them mentioning Kentro is being updated and used in the future.

So they certainly aren't going to remove any if they are still working on new ones.

Part of what makes this game fun is BEING hunted.

spiral turret
#

@slate pecan
Imagine your are a Rex and there is a dryo/lone utah preventing you from logging for 40 minutes.

pure copper
#

We’re in waaaaay too deep for Herbivores to be completely removed from the main game with no repercussions (and no before you mention sandbox nobody cares about that because it’s an aimless dumpster with no meaning to life)

restive summit
#

I yodeled so damn loud when a Giga ambushed me at night as a Maia and one shot me, my folks ran in the room thinking someone broke through my window and murdered me.

This game is supposed to make you jump. What better way to do that then be the prey.

fathom idol
#

And i know its not going to happen, but im just saying it because people now keep on trash talking diablos and trikes because they already can facetank paras.

spiral turret
#

you aren't going to catch it, and its probably never going to kill you. It just would force you to alt f4 and wait the 5 minutes to get out.

restive summit
#

So if I trash talk you enough will they remove you @fathom idol

#

That is your logic right now

#

And no you cannot facetank a Para, para is a useless lump of lard right now, sit down boy

fathom idol
#

But its the truth. Para got a kick in the balls, hes USELESS now, he cant even run away anymore. If you do that to trike, hes not worth 6 hours of growing

vestal rune
#

I trash talk like every carnivore as a herbi because I find it fun lmao

restive summit
#

^

vestal rune
#

Para was being adjusted for being WAY to ridiculous

#

it was just over adjusted

#

it'll likely be fixed in the future

restive summit
#

Para is not FINISHED being adjusted I'm sure, so maybe don't complain when the game is legit still EA and everything is always changing or being tweaked

pure copper
#

Don’t be gentle it was hit in the knees with a bat

fathom idol
#

He was ridiculous because people were working in groups. Herbs were all gathering at the rock, and one allo isnt gonna do mutch then. Herb rock is gone now, so the nerf was unnessecary because you wont find any large KOS herb groups anymore

restive summit
#

Sure you do

#

Look at Trike

vestal rune
#

you will find large KOS groups still...

#

also one para could KOS

jovial skiff
#

no matter if theres nerfs or buffs

fathom idol
#

There we go...trike again...so were gonna nerf him again too? So a rex can one or two shot them again? Is that ANY fair to the players who invest 6 hours into this dinosaur?

pure copper
#

You can Kos asa Lot of creatures , some more efficiently than others

jovial skiff
#

theres gonna be kos groups

leaden night
#

Para being fixed in the future dondiLUL

jovial skiff
#

Crazy

#

its 50/50

#

Trike vs Rex

restive summit
#

Unless they add in some sort of server setting that limits your group numbers per species, then add in a comfort system so overcrowding weakens or lowers your Health, we will continue to see large megapacks and megaherds. Just be patient, changes are on the way.

jovial skiff
#

Affinity

#

^

restive summit
#

Exactly

pure copper
#

At shant rock it’s an open field with food at the forest edges , that means a huge open space where predators can be spotted

restive summit
#

So sit your arse down and wait xD

jovial skiff
#

Affinity would discourage Mega packs

pure copper
#

Trying to rush them in broad daylight when you’re not fast enough to evade is a bad idea

restive summit
#

Honestly non of the creatures will be properly balanced until we get our new systems and mechanics in

jovial skiff
#

and Combat overhaul

fathom idol
#

But thats what people did, and died, and complained, and got what they wanted

restive summit
#

Yeah, and I bet you AFTER the new overhauls and mechanics Para will be adjusted PROPERLY

jovial skiff
#

tbh if ur playing in a 100 person server

#

u probably will die

#

alot

restive summit
#

^

vestal rune
#

Crazy that's not what happened lol

jovial skiff
#

unless u have friends

vestal rune
#

people provide feedback, devs review it and decide if they should take it

#

para was actually overpowed because it was way too fast and strong

jovial skiff
#

^

vestal rune
#

they decided to take it down a notch but did it too much

#

it's likely gonna bounce back up in a near update

jovial skiff
#

I would make Para faster than Giga at least

fathom idol
#

He wont be, because then other people say they cant catch it

restive summit
#

I had a herd of me and 2 other Para, fully grown, been on the server for hours growing, finally find a nice spot to eat and potentially nest, and a Sucho (before the recent patch) murdered all 3 of us, outran us too even though we had a head start.

Was I salty? Yeah. Did I complain? Yeah.

Do I care now? Not really.

You know why???

Because the game isn't done yet.

vestal rune
#

no... he will...

jovial skiff
#

tbh I hope its not just Para that gets balanced

#

I hope it all the herbivore

#

Trike is at a good spot

#

Dibble and para got the nerf hard

restive summit
#

People who complain that they couldn't catch Para before it's speed nerf just weren't good at ambush and being concealed enough. You have to surround the damn thing so someone can cut it off and get bleed on it. It's called COORDINATIO. It's very useful

leaden night
#

Dibble needs 100-200 more raw and its fine

jovial skiff
#

ye

fathom idol
#

Ima, people complain about Diablo being to OP now .. theres always the next and then the next and then the next untill theres nothing left

vestal rune
#

pachy could also use some love I think

#

diablo isn't OP lol

restive summit
#

Did Dibble get nerfed? I didn't know :0

leaden night
#

Yes

#

And no

restive summit
#

Aw, poor potatoe

leaden night
#

It got nerfed a way long time ago

restive summit
#

Last time I checked you can assride Acro to death with Dibble

leaden night
#

Still can without alt-turn

jovial skiff
#

I remember when Allo first came out

fathom idol
#

Acro isnt survival

jovial skiff
#

and got destroyed by the potatoes

restive summit
#

Even with alt turn, Acro's face is pretty far out, if you stay by the ankles alt turn is useless

#

Just gotta be real careful my dudes

#

I'm talking about sandbox obviously

#

With the survival Dib

fathom idol
#

^

restive summit
#

Dib is in an okay spot imo, Gigs can p much melt one

#

But imo honestly

#

Every animal needs something it has to hide from

#

You cannot 1v1 everything, esp as a smol little dude like Diablo against a titan like Gig

#

You better hide and pray

fathom idol
#

I think the game was balanced before the last update but i wasnt playing carn so cant really judge in what spot allo and cerato and carno were

leaden night
#

Cerato sux

#

Carno and Allo were already great

#

Just got better

restive summit
#

Last update Sucho was eating everything that moved wym

leaden night
#

Yeet

restive summit
#

Sucho was swallowing Para's hole 😂

leaden night
#

It was Carno and Allo packs

#

Everything does that

fathom idol
#

Well... guess we just have to wait and see. But i woudnt mind of bigger herbs would become AI only. To end this discussion about what is OP and what is not. I mean, hit a trike in the back, its dead..

restive summit
#

I always thought Sucho was a slow dude until I saw the Para nerf and watched him run me down like an ice cream truck

leaden night
#

Sucho is faster than Cerato rn

restive summit
#

I think I'd quit if bigger herbs became AI, I'm too much of a slut for Ceratopsians to tolerate that buffoonery

#

Trike is not a balloon animal either, you gotta WORK to hit a Trike in the back with his turn radius so godly

fathom idol
#

Turn radius .. hm jeah...needs to be adjusted then, made slower

#

or not

#

I DONT KNOW XD

restive summit
#

I can see that

fathom idol
#

It would be nice to have some sort of info chart on each dinosaur species what they can handle alone and what not

#

So people can kinda expect what they are getting into

#

Or maybe a combat tutorial

vestal rune
#

@brazen wolf they had servers with player slots over 150 in the past, however these were extremely unstable and as such they stick with 100

fathom idol
#

Jeah i remember these on the old v3...servers became really unstable after a few hours

vestal rune
#

maybe in the future with more optimizations we'll be able to have those servers

fathom idol
#

Isnt it the AI that keeps the devs from putting up servers with higher population slots?

tribal kayak
#

what AI? the AI spawn is horrible...if you rely on AI to spawn you ll die from starvation

coarse shell
#

@limpid dove late response but i pinged you by accident trying to ping someone else, sorry

severe walrus
#

@echo bridge there's servers like nycta that have rules to prevent the killing of entire herds and stuff

#

if a body drops then all combat stops there

#

no need to change key game mechanics to stop asshole players

#

it's realistic for massive carnivores to always be hungry

#

they have to sustain that mass somehow

pseudo falcon
#

@echo bridge I get where you're coming from but I feel it keeps the game for both parties more interesting. Idk about you but staying in a herd gets stale quick and you want things to try and hunt you.

#

@severe walrus agreed

severe walrus
#

and a large body will usually sustain any carnivore for a long time

#

long enough for them to start getting bored

echo bridge
#

I'm not annoyed about being the herd getting obliterated, that's part of the game and you shouldn't be mad about dying. What I'm more annoyed by is the fact an apex actually has to kill that much and that often to stay alive

pseudo falcon
#

Honestly people just need to stop caring so much about their dinosaurs. If anything I think the time it takes for dinos to age should be a editable value in servers to allow players to be fully grown quicker.

severe walrus
#

apexes realistically had to kill a lot to sustain themselves it's basic nature

#

the energy required to sustain 5 or 6 tons of weight was extreme

leaden night
#

Yes but one entire Allo is half a rex's hunger

echo bridge
#

You have to eat someone that spent 3 HOURS GROWING every 30 minutes

leaden night
#

Large animals aren't bloody shrews

severe walrus
#

okay?

echo bridge
#

It's hard not to see the problem with that

severe walrus
#

and i've seen rexes die to utah packs it's not hard to kill one

#

same with gigas

echo bridge
#

Especially when the map is so big everyone just hides in the corner

severe walrus
#

if you want to keep your damn dinosaur then assride them

leaden night
#

Thunk

pseudo falcon
#

I just think there are far better alternative solutions to your problem

leaden night
#

What does that have to do with anything

pseudo falcon
#

Bigger AI

leaden night
#

This is about apex hunger

#

Not if rex is killable

pseudo falcon
#

Shorter Growth times

severe walrus
#

the current survival apexes are easy to kill if you aren't dumb

leaden night
#

Once more

severe walrus
#

so their hunger is basically acceptable in my eyes

leaden night
#

That is offtopic

severe walrus
#

since most of the time they're gonna be tackling things way too strong for them thinking they're OP

echo bridge
#

So they are easy to kill so garbage hunger balances them 🤔

pseudo falcon
#

Which feels super bad when you're a fully grown starving adult rex

severe walrus
#

or they're going to attack small creatures

#

this game isn't about having your feelings hurt because someone wasted 3 hours of your time to keep 7 hours of theirs alive

#

their hunger is realistic idk how else to say it

leaden night
#

No it isn't

severe walrus
#

yes it is

echo bridge
#

No it isnt

severe walrus
#

yes

#

it

#

is

pseudo falcon
#

Oof

echo bridge
#

Can I use your time machine then?

severe walrus
#

🤦

hoary moth
#

their hunger would be realistic if there was enough of an ecosystem to feed them

pseudo falcon
#

🤦

leaden night
#

How does something over half its size barely fill something to half hunger

hoary moth
#

Going after AI/things that are too fast for adult rex, not so much

echo bridge
#

Thing is realism should be rarely prioritized to game balance

pseudo falcon
#

Which is why the solution would be to add bigger AI not reduce their hunger

severe walrus
#

a t-rex would need to consume around 500 KGs of protein a day to live

leaden night
#

Or, or

#

Make shit give more food

severe walrus
#

a triceratops body already gives a shitload of food

#

same with everything else

echo bridge
#

How much does an allo in game weigh again... 3.25 tons right?

hoary moth
#

2.8

severe walrus
#

an allo realistically isn't going to fill up an apex

hoary moth
#

what

leaden night
#

What

echo bridge
#

So that should theoretically last about 3-4 days by your math

hoary moth
#

do you think an allo weighs less than a rex needs to eat daily

severe walrus
#

not all of that is pure meat

#

or protein

hoary moth
#

if 10% of it is meat it's still going to fill it up

#

for multiple days

#

not one

pseudo falcon
#

I mean lions are smol bois and they eat a shit tone

echo bridge
#

A rex will eat all if it if its hunger is that demanding. Bones, meat, organs and all

severe walrus
#

then increase the hunger an allo fills

#

not to mention allos can easily fuck rexes but

#

you know

echo bridge
#

That's because lions often kill smaller, leaner, and less filling prey more than the dangerous ones

leaden night
#

How easily something fucks the other is pointless to this topic

pseudo falcon
#

True that

echo bridge
#

Thet have to eat more because they are in a pack, and they often eat smaller things

severe walrus
#

because an allo can kill a rex and reverse the situation on it

#

and your point on wasting hours of time

hoary moth
#

smaller animals also have relatively higher metabolism

leaden night
#

No it isn't

severe walrus
#

would you rather waste 7 to 8 hours to starving?

hoary moth
#

so they need to eat more proportionally

echo bridge
#

A solo allo can have fun killing a rex

brisk mesa
#

On official servers?

severe walrus
#

and a rex can have fun trying to kill apex herbivores your point

#

rex can't take on anything its size right now

brisk mesa
#

What.

severe walrus
#

unless they're really good

echo bridge
#

The problem is having to kill an allo every 30 minutes when 1 should feed you for days realistically in your terms

brisk mesa
#

Trex slaughters a Giga.

severe walrus
#

not if the giga is smart

pseudo falcon
#

I just think maia AIs would be a great solution

brisk mesa
#

That's around his size?

severe walrus
#

i've assriden rexes to hell as gigas

#

same with trikes

brisk mesa
#

Assride trike?

leaden night
#

Alt-turn is a fun thing

severe walrus
#

no

#

trikes

#

assride

echo bridge
#

Trex slaughters anything in a fight if it kowns what its doing

severe walrus
#

rexes

brisk mesa
#

Well yeah

pseudo falcon
#

Trike turn radius 👌

severe walrus
#

rex has one advantage and that's BB

brisk mesa
#

Thought you said Giga assriding Trike

severe walrus
#

no

leaden night
#

Triceratops could assride anything

brisk mesa
#

Except Spino

leaden night
#

Excluding Galli and Spon

brisk mesa
severe walrus
#

spino isn't survival

pseudo falcon
#

$pino op

brisk mesa
#

Yeah ik.

leaden night
#

Anyway

echo bridge
#

Still tho the problem is having to eat medium sized dinosaurs every 30 minutes

severe walrus
#

30 minutes is a good time frame

echo bridge
#

And never being able to nest because you need food that often

severe walrus
#

and medium tier carnis are usually the only prey item available to apexes lmao

leaden night
#

No

severe walrus
#

everything else is either gonna not be nearby or be in a herd

echo bridge
#

Have fun nesting 1 person because you'll starve out by the time they can leave the nest

leaden night
#

Rex cannot catch any medium carnivores

#

Like

brisk mesa
#

^^^^

severe walrus
#

then why do you care if rexes are eating allos

leaden night
#

All of them are far faster than its ambush

echo bridge
#

Rex cant catch shit my dude, what drugs are you on

severe walrus
#

since they obviously 'can't'

#

then why are you obsessed

#

with allos

brisk mesa
#

That's actually... a valid point.

#

Lol.

echo bridge
#

Because allos are the carbon copy mediums sized dinosaur

brisk mesa
#

Trex cannot catch something, why make it yield more? Just fattens up Gigas

severe walrus
#

exactly

leaden night
#

True

echo bridge
#

I even pasted maia and diablo in my suggestion if you read it

brisk mesa
#

Trex only ctaches Diablos

severe walrus
#

barely

brisk mesa
#

Legit.

#

Barely

#

yeah

#

point blank ambush gets it

echo bridge
#

Have fun getting that close as a rex tho

brisk mesa
#

All making mid tiers yield more food

#

Yeah we know

echo bridge
#

At least you can outstam it

hoary moth
#

I mean

severe walrus
#

you're obsessed with people losing '3 hours of work' for an allo when rexes can't even catch them?

#

and you say i'm intoxicated

#

ok

hoary moth
#

if rex can't catch anything we have bigger problems than how much an allo gives

brisk mesa
#

Mid tiers yielding more only feeds Giga plagues

#

Downsized gets it.

#

It's not that Trex starves too fast.

severe walrus
#

i've already stated rex needs like a .5 mph ambush buff

echo bridge
#

I'm saying the math doesn't add up not that I'm angry about dying

brisk mesa
#

It's he cannot catch shit.

#

He starves fast and would need to bully or scavenge because he's too slow, but cannot eat jackshit for gores

#

And nobody leaves carcasses just lying around.

echo bridge
#

And you cant smell them unless they are right next to you

severe walrus
#

that's a speed problem then

#

not a hunger problem

brisk mesa
#

Yea

leaden night
#

This is why a scavenger niche fails hard in this game

brisk mesa
#

It's a speed problem

hoary moth
#

Rex not being able to eat gores is pretty ironic since it's like the best adapted dinosaur for bonebreaking

brisk mesa
#

Ikr

hoary moth
#

Could just crunch through the little ribcages lmao

severe walrus
#

it's been said you'll be able to sniff out bodies soon

#

and i hope rex gets better scent than a lot of other dinosaurs

echo bridge
#

Rex not eating sucho gores is one of the most frustrating things to see

brisk mesa
#

Look, honestly, I feel Trex would need something drastic, but problem is we'd have 2 options.

leaden night
#

Even then, wouldn't literally every other carnivore smell them

brisk mesa
#

A) copy-paste Giga's fix

#

B) make Trex the terminator with stupid Stamina levels

#

If you can't shake a Trex

#

it will run you down...

#

and make mincemeat of you.

#

Which feels suitably balanced and terrifying.

#

Shake off the slowest motherfucker.

leaden night
#

Just balance everything with realism so rex runs down everything at like 25mph

brisk mesa
#

begone

leaden night
brisk mesa
#

I mean, Giga's runtime is 2min 40sec right?

#

Imagine, keep Trex slow as he is, don't buff ambush, but a whopping 5min runtime.

leaden night
#

Spooky

brisk mesa
#

You have a lot of time as anything to break line of sight

#

evade him

echo bridge
#

Well maybe not increasing the mid teirs body values so gigas get more food but maybe trikes because it is surprisingly small for the effort you have to put in to kill one

brisk mesa
#

But if he doesnt lose track of you

#

he will eat your ass

#

Also

#

that would let Trex travel.

#

So they'd be less prone to be up shit's creek without a paddle

leaden night
#

Probably would have shit regen so it doesn't chase everything across the map

brisk mesa
#

I mean even with his current resting regen, he'd take a shitload of time

#

to fill bank up full stamina

#

His current regen is under 45sec iirc

#

and he has 110 runtime

#

If he has 300 sec runtime (5min)

#

regenning it will take him some time.

#

over 2min

leaden night
#

🤔

brisk mesa
#

Honestly, that feels like the best rendition of Trex, to truly make it unique and not inferior to Subrex

#

Bloody Terminator the dinosaur.

echo bridge
#

Yeah actually I like that

#

Buff rex speed by a small amount and give it a massive stam buff but keep the regen the same number as it is now basically

#

Wonder how giga is gonna work around that tho

leaden night
#

Uh

#

Via

#

Fuck Giga

echo bridge
#

Maybe a little bigger of a speed gap between the two and then rebalance everything elses speed around that

#

Hey Why Watt, you cool with me editing my suggestion and put what you said or do you want to make your own

brisk mesa
#

Nah Giga can fight back now.

#

Trex is not as untouchable, and while a lone Giga has big regrets

#

it would at least put a check on Gigas.

#

Giga and Diablo could use a buff

#

To compensate for such a Trex buff.

echo bridge
#

Honestly it might be better for you to sum it up, just threw this up here when I started thinking about it

brisk mesa
#

Yeah I'll post my idea on it's own

languid ember
#

Wyatt been typing for 15 mins, wall incomingdondiLUL

coarse shell
#

@brazen wolf more server slots means a more unstable server

jovial arch
#

I still want Giga nerfs

coarse shell
#

i'd prefer more servers than more slots tbh

jovial arch
#

Well as for how to fix this and nerf Giga is rather simple

#

Just buff Giga flat damage

brisk mesa
#

Yeah that's what I was going to propose but

jovial arch
#

Trike?

brisk mesa
#

didn't wanna start a potential bonfire

languid ember
#

good luck getting that approved from allo players

brisk mesa
#

Trike currently can beat Trex

jovial arch
#

Buff it’s bleed res slightly

#

Imo 5 min is way too much

brisk mesa
#

Nah, Threetails lemme hop on DM with you.

jovial arch
#

It doesn’t need more than like 3:30 to get the job done

brisk mesa
#

Allo runs longer than that

#

So.

languid ember
#

allo runs 3:20

brisk mesa
#

Oh, my bad but like

#

speed difference would give Allo a huge lead

#

He needs substantially more runtime, for example when Subrex out-stams a Maia

#

you basically have no gas left by the time you reach it

jovial arch
#

Wait a minute what

languid ember
#

i mean, that's almost double the giga runtime, so there's that old issue back again

vestal rune
#

the thing is, rex SHOULD be the ambush predator

waxen elk
#

Imo

brisk mesa
#

Why?

languid ember
#

should it though? it's only a game

vestal rune
#

because he's incredibly powerful and has bb?

brisk mesa
#

Trex is legit an endurance predator.

vestal rune
#

I'm talking about ingame

brisk mesa
#

Yes. But look at all needed to be a too effective ambush hunter

#

Long ambush time; High mult; high crouch speed; high trot speed

#

That's all the shit

#

Giga has.

vestal rune
#

no?

brisk mesa
#

You'd want new animations

vestal rune
#

well yes...

brisk mesa
#

for Trex to pull that off.

#

And would need new ones for Giga

#

to do something else

vestal rune
#

but you really only need a decent ambush to turn rex into a good ambush predator

clear turret
#

You won me over with the Garchomp v Megachomp comparison

brisk mesa
#

XD

languid ember
#

imo it would be cool to have two different playstyles for the apexes, instead of both just ambushing shit

jovial arch
#

I always saw rex as hunting apexes

vestal rune
#

well ye rex should be more suited to brawling with apex herbis

jovial arch
#

This would extend rexes hunting range all the way to the small tiers

#

Ie Dilo

languid ember
#

nah, dilo is too fast for that

brisk mesa
#

^^^^

#

Dilo gains too much distance.

vestal rune
#

actually I guess he could work for an endurance predator

brisk mesa
#

With his speed.

languid ember
#

it's like 12 km/h faster and has good stam

brisk mesa
#

^^^^^^

#

Unless he happens to stumble upon

#

a Dilo migration

#

and they all burned their stamina

#

they are fine.

vestal rune
#

his bb would become a bit less useful as an endurance hunter though, since if he succeeds in running something down they're gonna be unable to escape anyways

jovial arch
#

With 2:20 of extra stam in the tank

brisk mesa
#

Well think of it as like, finishing something off instead of being vital to actually eat.

#

If you let the loudest

#

slowest carnivore

#

Keep track of you until you tired...

#

well, that's on you :P

jovial arch
#

What’s the point of bb tho

vestal rune
#

most herbivores aren't even suited to eating grass lol

jovial arch
#

What’s the point of his damage also

vestal rune
#

ye that still doesn't make the bb useful

#

as just having high damage will be enough

brisk mesa
#

Ok but... it adds motive to remove BB

#

Which isn't a bad thing lol.

vestal rune
#

true

normal fern
#

So what would be an allos, diablos and paras counterplay to this exactly?

brisk mesa
#

If you have the stamina, the devs finally can remove that god forsaken shit

jovial arch
#

None

vestal rune
#

ye I guess like that we'll be able to remove bb entirely

normal fern
#

Just give up?

brisk mesa
#

No

jovial arch
#

They just die taco

brisk mesa
#

Breaking line of sight

vestal rune
#

the more I think about it the better it seems lmao

brisk mesa
#

Which would be easy given he's the slowest thing

#

Likewise being smart about their stamina

normal fern
#

Scent?

brisk mesa
#

Tracking footprints w/o blood

vestal rune
#

scent can be dealt with...

brisk mesa
#

isn't super reliable

white torrent
#

They are removing bone break??

brisk mesa
#

No.

jovial arch
#

Well then by that argument there’s no reason to buff Maia stam whywatt

vestal rune
#

like losing an apex isn't really that hard

brisk mesa
#

Erm

white torrent
#

That’s real dumb

brisk mesa
#

Maia is horribly out stammed

vestal rune
#

no...

jovial arch
#

Which is literally something you’ve suggested

vestal rune
#

but with whywatt's suggestion they'll be able to

#

and that's a good thing

normal fern
#

Not really

jovial arch
#

And this rex gorribly outstams at least 4 Dinos

brisk mesa
#

Threetails, ignore Giga and Diablo.

languid ember
#

and is also slower by a ton

jovial arch
#

Why dondiSquint

brisk mesa
#

For now, because I said those would need changes.

#

I acknowledge that.

#

Shifuckery would be the case.

jovial arch
#

That’s not how balance works

brisk mesa
#

Threetails, I acknowledge they'd need adjustments

#

I even mentioned it.

#

I'm bringing up Allosaurus

#

Sucho et

#

*etc

normal fern
#

Everything slower than a dilo would need adjustments

brisk mesa
#

No, not quite.

vestal rune
#

ye... no...

brisk mesa
#

Allosaurus has a substantially better trot, a better sprint speed, a good stamina pool, high stamina regen

vestal rune
#

I imagine most animals would be able to easily get a rex off their trail

brisk mesa
#

Allo's fine, if he's smart.

#

Yeah.

#

You have a long time to do so.

#

It's not like with Giga

#

who was totally dicked down

vestal rune
#

tracking actually takes skill, and stopping someone from tracking you also takes skill

normal fern
#

Except T. rex can simply scent and find you

vestal rune
#

no? what?

brisk mesa
#

You act as if scent is the easiest thing to use lmao

languid ember
#

it's not easy to sniff down mid tiers taco

brisk mesa
#

^^^^^

jovial arch
#

This encourages packing on rex

vestal rune
#

if you're fast enough you may be able to entirely leave his scent raduis

#

what?

#

how?

brisk mesa
#

Your appetite doesn't Threetails

vestal rune
#

it'll take even longer to get kills

languid ember
#

and affinity will prevent megapacking anyway right?

jovial arch
#

Two rexes are practically inescapable if the know what they’re doing

vestal rune
#

and you're guranteed to get one if you success

#

more rexes doesn't help you succeed

jovial arch
#

They can just ortinate scenting

#

I’ve literally tracked down a dryo with two Allos b4

brisk mesa
#

Allos have amazing trot

#

lol.

#

And stamina regen

#

Trex still has his shitty slow trot

#

and is obvious as fuck

#

Hide-and-seek

jovial arch
#

These guys have 5 min of stam

brisk mesa
#

Threetails, there's a way we can test things

#

we'd need Ditto's help as a third volunteer.

compact matrix
#

Rex should have his life cycle be a bit more well rounded

#

ATM adult rex is nearly impossible to play against players who know what they are doing unless you are lucky enough to run into a trike or you outsmart a weaker enemy

#

A very unforgiving hunger bar as well

jovial arch
#

Yes

#

You’re right
