They should be messing things up

viral creek
#

Is gross

restive mesa
#

Spino loses to giga currently

viral creek
#

Shant gives me ptsd

restive mesa
#

Why's that?

silver dagger
#

Shants shouldn't ever be in Survival at least.

viral creek
#

Shants could 1 shot apexes and run them down back in the day

#

And took nothing to grow

restive mesa
#

Cant anymore

#

nah

viral creek
#

Y e s t h e y c a n

barren zephyr
#

Make private good = take carebear rules out, take p2w and global chat and keep pack limits = perfectooo

viral creek
#

Evil beings

restive mesa
#

I agree take P2W out

#

but, global stays

#

lol

barren zephyr
#

I used Shants in a deathmatch server..it 2 shot a giga..logic

violet magnet
#

down with P2W

silver dagger
#

I actually liked strict realism rules like Rogue used to have, but that was back when there were stat mods.

viral creek
#

Shants are disgusting creatures that should stay in the depths of hell where they belong

restive mesa
#

IT WEIGHS 12 TONS WHY WOULD IT NOT?

viral creek
#

I enjoyed rogue until they changed their name, and changed to terra vitae

silver dagger
#

I liked it before and after.

barren zephyr
#

@restive mesa why do you need global? To make friends? Go out at night meet ppl or use facebook or wtv lol

viral creek
#

It kinda went downhill from there, from my perspective

violet magnet
#

i watched some videos from a youtuber who played on rogue realism when the stat and skin mod was in, they were a spino and they buttrode a stego to death

#

like the stego was swiping like crazy but the spino barely even got hurt

#

that was a little ridiculous to me

silver dagger
#

Yeah I remember being a stego and immediately dying to acro and up.

restive mesa
#

@barren zephyr again with missing the point. My irl friends dont play games and not the isle. So, where is the best place to meet people that play the isle?

silver dagger
#

I played stego quite a bit back then.

restive mesa
#

Oh, the isle

viral creek
#

TIL.realism on v4 was the shit for me

#

And normal free for all servers

barren zephyr
#

@restive mesa official discord

silver dagger
#

I actually loved V4.

viral creek
#

I doubt we'll ever have another good private realism server for a long time

restive mesa
#

@barren zephyr Dont play official

viral creek
#

Especially since server locks are broken

#

Official is good wdym

restive mesa
#

Pack limits arent enforced

#

wont play til they are

viral creek
#

They have limits on rex, gigas, and trikes

violet magnet
#

the realism i used to play on is making a comeback

restive mesa
#

and are grossly incorrect. 5 apexes? why?

violet magnet
#

still has profiles but they're not SUPER restricting

Going there now.

#

@true haven you only need to make apexes more balanced and their numbers will decrease

umbral prairie
#

you can make hunger, water and stam permanently visible.

they don't look like a watermark though

night being dark would be cool, but I would like a slight increase of the night vision range for some creatures because it is a bit annoying to only be able to see so little (I know it's supposed to be spooky but I think a slight increase wouldn't ruin that)

Btw guys

#

Cama does dmg while running

#

so pretty much it can step on u

#

it can 1 shot dilos and utahs

#

probably carnnos

#

from just running on it

shrewd python
spiral pond
#

Tbh para still kinda needs a buff of some sort

#

maybe what Watt is suggesting

merry ember
#

What is Para supposed to be threatened by?

spiral pond
#

something that isnt a solo allo

#

i think

#

but single allo can kill you rn

#

you would need to assride it with hearbutt

#

good luck

#

since kick it so shit

merry ember
#

I was under the impression that Allo’s hunted Para’s.

normal fern
#

They do

spiral pond
#

in packs

#

or pair

normal fern
#

Para runs away

spiral pond
#

ambush abuse

merry ember
#

So it’s a Mountain Lion vs. a Deer.

normal fern
#

If you keep running it literally isn't a problem

#

Yep

spiral pond
#

why deer ?

merry ember
#

Bigger and heavier than the lion but not quite equipped to actually stomp it to death like an Elk

spiral pond
#

and what would be giga sir if allo is moutain lion

merry ember
#

Polar Bear

spiral pond
#

and rex ?

normal fern
#

Tiger or any other large predator in this scenario

merry ember
#

Polar Bear with cybernetic enhancements

spiral pond
#

tbh i see allo more as wolf

merry ember
#

Wolves aren’t dangerous solo, Allo is

normal fern
#

Lemme use your logic, what does that make dilo and Utah then?

spiral pond
#

lemme think

#

Dilo would be Caracal possibly, Utah a fox maybe

#

also im not talking about a crazy buff to para

#

not that suggestion that wants to 3 kick for allo

#

how would a 50 dmg increase to kick do ?

merry ember
#

Utah is a wolf or coyote if anything in this analogy

normal fern
#

Personally I think para getting to 3-4 shot would be fine once it had momentum and the kick hitbox is fixed

spiral pond
#

if it got momentum if totally fine with 3-4 shots

normal fern
#

And a fix to the hitbox, that kick goes all the way back to its hips

bronze spoke
#

I agree with the trike stomp thing tbh

#

its literally deafening to every other sound around you

#

"turn your game down" then we wont hear the rest of the shit stomping around us, moreso than we could with the game turned up

barren zephyr
#

buffdilo

carmine echo
#

i will be pissed if this doesnt happen in next patch 👆

barren zephyr
#

ppl are complaining alot about servers being plagued with apex carnivores...this time i have to agree.

#

but

#

i dunno what the devs can do to reduce the apex population and make it more balanced

#

the fact is

#

and its a simple one

#

everyone wants to play the big bad dino or if preferred the flavour of the month...ppl dont usually play what fits they re playstyle

#

sad

#

but true

#

2 days ago Giga was the preferred dish cause it could smash everything...now that its bite force is nerfed and it can no longer shit on a rex few are those that still play giga

#

and now the new flavour is once again

#

...Trex

merry ember
#

@spark carbon Dondi already said earlier today that the Oro and Taco food value is going to be changed back. Apexes are gonna start starving again soon enough with only Ava able to feed them.

barren zephyr
#

and @spark carbon i feel your concerns...this doesnt push me away from the game itself cause i love the hardcore concept of the game...but many ppl are like you...things dont change they just leave. Pack limits should be implemented for the well being of the game...but the fact is...its still unbalanced and those who play the game and dont agree with that have to live with it until some sort of change arrives

merry ember
#

Affinity is presumably going to fix the packing issue.

barren zephyr
#

i dunno what can affinity do regarding megapacks tbh @merry ember

merry ember
#

Penalize you for doing things your Dinosaur wouldn’t do, such as a very territorial species constantly being around a large number of their own kind?

barren zephyr
#

most of the time im a solo player and i feel that i have absolutely no chance of surviving even if i have a full size rex or giga...ill just find 5 gigas or wtv and die

#

@merry ember did dondi talked about the affinity system?

merry ember
#

He has, yes.

barren zephyr
#

any clip about it?

merry ember
#

I’m sure someone could find the imgur with the screenshots for you.

white falcon
#

@spark carbon the problem with reducing AI spawns is that maps like V3 are so large you don’t always find people. You could be moving towards them, but not know because the map is so big.

spiral pond
#

Making dilo turn even worse ?

#

No thank you

barren zephyr
#

no

#

decrease its turn radius

#

as in

#

make its turn

#

b e t t e r

spiral pond
#

oh like this

barren zephyr
#

yes

white falcon
#

Don’t increase its speed then

#

They’re already nuisances. They also need to balance them.

barren zephyr
#

they are easily one of the weakest carnivores rn

spiral pond
#

they are the weakest carnivores

barren zephyr
#

yea

#

they are

spiral pond
#

since utah facetanks them

#

outruns

#

outturns

barren zephyr
#

pachy can do the same thing

#

same with maia

spiral pond
#

except way better

compact matrix
#

give dilo 100 bleed

barren zephyr
#

carno doesnt outurn

compact matrix
#

perfectly balanced

barren zephyr
#

that wouldent saveit

spiral pond
#

bleed is useless

#

if something like utah can literally facetank you

barren zephyr
#

its like giving a gun that cant shoot 100 billion damage

#

if you ever shot anything you would win but it cant shoot

white falcon
#

Hit ‘n run. If you want to have a better use than Utahs then increase speed.

spiral pond
#

hit n run can only work if you are ninja that can get outta sight

#

but wait utah can still bite you

#

and sniff you out

white falcon
#

THEN WHY DOES THE DILO HAVE THE BEST NIGHT VISION

spiral pond
#

CAUSE NIGHT IS BRIGHT

white falcon
#

Not really... granted you can see but not very well

spiral pond
#

you can literally see everything if your not in a forest full of bushes

white falcon
#

There aren’t too many places, especially with water

spiral pond
#

also gamma

acoustic basin
#

My opinion: Revert the night darkness change. It SHOULD be pich black and dangerous. Current state causes dilo to lose its pro, and people abuse it with gamma.
Secondly: Apexes ruin the game for non-apex dino's. They are everywhere and you can't do shit against them unless you are one yourself. In the current state, the game without Apexes is better...

@topaz sierra Camarasaurus is already confirmed to be coming into survival

Is it really now?? When did I miss that

It was announced on stream a couple of days ago

True, imagine the hatchling's "squeak"

#

@shrewd python I don't want it to be that strong, I just want the swing to do more damage.

astral forge
#

imo i dont think night should be literally pitch black

#

maybe close to it but

spark carbon
#

I mean I like night as it is right now since it's more realistic, but it's true that Dilos nv is useless atm. Maybe making Dilos have infinite night vision would make a difference?

jolly willow
#

just buff dilos fucking turn radius

#

no idea why they thought to make it turn like a literal train

vague salmon
#

I feel that growing up to an adult apex with slow hunger rate should be a reward for spending hours as a smaller stage. I agree with ponk- make the juvie and subadult stages more difficult to maintain with hunger and thirst so that they can't just camp an area and live off of the area, at least for rexes. The rex's younger stages are much more mobile than their adult counterpart, so while they do get hungry quickly they don't have to lug around this giant sluggish beast to find food.

barren zephyr
#

@valid flower that is gonna be fixed on the next patch

jolly willow
#

before the patch, apexes were more challenging

valid flower
#

@barren zephyr Next patch? When? End of march?

jolly willow
#

now its pretty goddamn easy to grow a rex or giga whenever u please

#

even before the patch they were fairly easy

torpid wedge
#

i agree with siv tbh

jolly willow
#

ya

barren zephyr
#

@valid flower let the devs work and for now just play the game has it is...

torpid wedge
#

if the sub and juvi stages are so much harder then let people complain

knotty wadi
#

Tbh it's hard to play with the screen shake

torpid wedge
#

people deserve it after getting to adult

knotty wadi
#

Makes me nauseus

astral forge
#

am i the only one who doesnt experience this???

#

or is just immune or somethin

torpid wedge
#

it’s worse on bigger dinos

#

if you play utah, dryo, etc it’s not as intense

astral forge
#

ive been playing trike in another server but

knotty wadi
#

Yeah I really noticed it on my adult Allo, but if you walk slow or crouch it juvi 8t doesn't happen

astral forge
#

i havent noticed it

torpid wedge
#

it’s very prominent on allo, rex, giga

#

just trotting on my giga yesterday

light oak
#

Just make apex hunger to pre patch

vague salmon
#

It makes me so dizzy playing carni apex. I can't wait til the fix for it

light oak
#

They were pretty balance before

torpid wedge
#

i don’t see why everyone is this frustrated with the hunger

light oak
#

Nobody is frustrated

#

It's really lame

knotty wadi
#

I think it's cause they decreased hunger AND added ava, so now you're always at 100 food

torpid wedge
#

ohh yeah i see with the ava added in

jolly willow
#

Make apexes hongry again

torpid wedge
#

but soon they won’t be able to eat oro and taco

jolly willow
#

Oros and tacos are already p light for giga/rex arent they

#

Like 2 bites I think lol

astral forge
#

yea p much

torpid wedge
#

still something

knotty wadi
#

Yeah it's like 2 percent lol

#

Ava is like 35

torpid wedge
#

i survived off of those when i first reached adult

vague salmon
#

Before I completely survived off of oro and taco to adulthood pre-patch

jolly willow
#

yeah

torpid wedge
#

was a mad rush for food and i didn’t die because of the tacos/oros

#

yeah same siv

knotty wadi
#

Keyword is preadult

#

I mean full adult

barren zephyr
#

some ppl dont understand the context of earlier access😐

torpid wedge
#

i certainly don’t think packs of rexes/gigas should be able to live on ai lol

#

like they have

light oak
#

Apex were able to reach adulthood with IA prepatch

#

Now is just ridiculous

torpid wedge
#

this is suggestion discussion venom we’re allowed to talk about what we think 😂

barren zephyr
#

unfortunately

torpid wedge
jolly willow
#

Make juvie/sub close to living hell in terms of hunger and thirst, then adult is average/somewhat slow as a reward

#

Gotta get hongry

#

I'm sure there are other ways to make it challenging

vague salmon
#

The only thing playing adult rex pre patch was that I felt like it was a gamble to wander the map and lots of times I just didn't find anything anywhere especially when playing solo lmao
So I usually camped a spot unless I was in a pack

light oak
#

Even if affinity is added, you will have tons of apex roaming around on their own, because they are Even easier to survive than mid carns now

jolly willow
#

probably :/

light oak
#

You have nothing to fear except other apex, and if u are on a pack, theres literally nothing that threats u

jolly willow
#

mhm

vague salmon
#

Maybe a long way in when strains are finally in, the apex pop will be culled, along with the rest of the pop dondiTroll

#

I wonder if people are also seeing more apexes around the map because they can finally wander around without potentiall starving to death

light oak
#

I don't play apexes, I like mid tier, mostly cera now, and I tell you, theres more apexes now. Even if you don't see them, if pretty obvious from just reading the patch notes ...

#

Debes should stop taking suggestion and just read feedback. You will have always people qqing about a thing, and if change, you will have the people that liked the old way qqing, it's a endless cycle. Happened with rex buffs, with night brightness... Now is apex poblatión, and if ir get change, you will have the kids that love their big scary dinos qqing about it in just a second...

stiff fiber
#

the new AI and hunger is great

#

you guys talking about servers being overran with apexs, do you actually play the game?

#

so many people crying about it 2 hours after patch hit acting like map is full of grown apexes that take 6 hours to grow lol

#

@light oak LOL "Even if you don't see them, if pretty obvious from just reading the patch notes" I guess you guys do just complain without actually playing the game huh

merry ember
#

It’s like y’all haven’t been paying attention

#

Dondi already said its being addressed earlier this morning.

vague salmon
#

I play both midtier and fairly recently apexes and I don't really see much to complain about except for the occasional full pack apexes, but even then anything in a full pack is scary asf. I don't think they're running rampant as people say they are and it's just apexes that can actually move around and not camp a spot their whole loves

#

Lives*

light oak
#

@merry ember Even dondi notice it. Yet for some kids it's not a problem.

#

Thats the problem with suggestion. You have very delusional people trying yo balance the game.

stiff fiber
#

@merry ember where do I need to pay attention in order to see what you are talking about?

merry ember
#

Wasn’t specifically talking to you

#

Moreso the people flooding suggestion with “Apex Swarm pls nerf”

stiff fiber
#

@light oak You literally admitted you haven't played it yet but can already tell there is a problem from patch notes. Get out of here kid

simple wagon
#

@mystic kestrel Last days I played a lot of apexes to test them. Juvie giga has big hunger drain, juvie rex also is poor. The sub period is long so they need to have nice hunger system to keep them. It is okay right now, if it is decreased they can die from hunger if there is poor ai spawn.
I know that there are a lot of apexes, but rn they are hard to grow in populated hours. People grow them when there are very few players in the server so that they can abuse adults later. Even if you decrease the hunger there will be no efffect, bcs people will still grow them when there are no players around.

mystic kestrel
#

Its really not hard

#

to grow apex currently

#

u can seriously afk and just start eating ai at 20%

#

it would be an actual reward for going trough the constant eating and drinking

simple wagon
#

those arent only apexes, these are all the dinos, the only viable strategy beside a pack

mystic kestrel
#

i played fuck ton of rex and giga recently

#

its really easy

umbral prairie
#

@mystic kestrel I agree that it should be more challenging to grow apexes, but I think doing that with very fast hunger decay would just be annoying. I think this afk sitting in a bush might lower your affinity because you're not doing anything your dino might want

mystic kestrel
#

No affinity in yet

#

something needs to change

#

im fine with apex being top of the food chain

umbral prairie
#

but just searching for food constantly would be just as monotonous as afk growing and would just be more frustrating

mystic kestrel
#

It would force them

#

to come out of the shadow

#

no affinity yet to fix that

#

i'd rather make it frustrating

#

to grow apex

#

and be super fun at the end

#

as an reward

umbral prairie
#

It would be more rewarding I guess

#

but I think it will not solve the mass apex population, it will just result in more people complaining, because it wouldn't be hard to grow an apex with the current AI spawns, just really annoying

#

but there would still be many adults as it isn't a challenge

fathom idol
#

So...this is getting pretty weird huh...first, everyone is complaining about how little AI there is and now, with Ava AI, tons of people complain there are too many apax players. Well most people love giga and rex and thats why they are so many. There is no other way around it then to accept it untill humans and cannibals are around. People are always going to pick the thing that rocks the most. I do agree on nerfing hunger and water for subs BUT as a sub, 9 out of 10 times you die by some adult rex or giga. Remember some weeks ago it was the Allos.. overrunning the servers, then the Suchos. I dont think its the dinosaurs that are causing the issue; its the PEOPLE themselves and the way they act/think.

coarse shell
#

thats why affinity is gonna be a thing

mystic kestrel
#

@umbral prairie the Taco and Oro will give less food in next patch

#

that + hunger reduction for apex should be ok

#

hard annyoing but , tough luck if u want to be apex better harden your self

fathom idol
#

I think some AI that is a challange might be a good idea, something people can really hunt when in groups, let say Shant and Brachi. Something that can KILL an apax but isnt a human they can blame ^^

mystic kestrel
umbral prairie
#

I just hope that we will have hadrosaur AI at some point, I'd imagine that hadro AI wouldn't spawn close to hungry dinos, but just spawn randomly on the map (maybe in more open areas) and just wander around, so mid tiers and Apexes have to roam the island but then, once they find a herd, can live off of it for a while (but they have to follow it, so no sitting in bushes all the time)

cyan flame
#

The issue is that the gameplay has to be enjoyable, no matter what you play as, even if it is difficult/hard, it has to be fun. It's not fun if all you constantly is doing is running between water/food, back and forth with no time for anything else, or that you can't actually sit the night out without panicing in the morning cause you're a few minutes away from starving. Or for that matter finding someone, but not having the time to stalk them/plan and execute a proper ambush, or pass up the target if it turns out to be too much, like one rex vs three trikes or something, in which case you may have to pass them up and hope for the next target to be a bit easier.

umbral prairie
#

right now, you have a better chance at finding AI if you sit for 20 minutes and then wander around in a radius of 100m, with herds randomly spawning you will have to roam up to multiple kilometers but have a lot of food in turn

fathom idol
#

I think one of the issues is now is that AVA is spawning in too close to said carni, and it should spawn when they are close to starvation. Im sub rex now and when im at 70% food level theres a very high chance avas spawn in that will fill me up all the way to 100%

cyan flame
#

Sounds more fun Sam, though I'd like it if the herds roamed and came by, so you'd be able to keep an area, knowing that things would come by reasonably often, giving you the chance to hunt and get food to sustain yourself

violet magnet
#

and avas are loud as fuck and could draw in other carnis

fathom idol
#

I dont mind them being loud, they just give to mutch food.. ??

dark hedge
#

It’s fine, but it makes the bigger dinos an easy catch

cyan flame
#

I think the food value is fine, sounds to me the issue is when they spawn, if anything. Ai should only spawn at.. 30% or less food, until then, you can and should prioritize players, but after that, it might be worth taking an ai to boost the food before going back after players?

coarse shell
#

@dark hedge im sorry but if you play on no alt-turn servers thats your problem

umbral prairie
#

It would be cool to keep an area, but right now the areas are way too small, often limited to two smaller lakes or one big lake, and with the herds not specifically spawning close, you would have to expand your territory a bit. you can also roam the whole island as you don't have to wait for AI to spawn close to you, because right now it feels like your get more AI if you stay in one place

coarse shell
#

not a valid suggestion if its not from an official server lel

dark hedge
#

Looks like I’m going to use the Cerato then

fathom idol
dark hedge
#

Absolutely destroy everyone

violet magnet
#

ok

umbral prairie
#

just don't play on no alt turn servers. It's an important game mechanic, it just needs an animation so nobody complains about 'dinos being ballerinas'

#

The [ and ] buttons cycle left and right between Local, Group, and Global

verbal acorn
#

It seems getting an Ava spawn is a dice roll. Ava are currently served to us on a silver platter though...there needs to be some improvements to them to keep the challenge.

#

In terms of making Apex survival more challenging. There needs to be a broader approach to “surviving” other than eat not to starve, drink to not die of thirst and dont get killed. The current survival model is too narrow, and therefore, any attempt to balance or make survival challenging through those three areas ends up being too heavy handed and annoying.

We need additional threats to survival to broaden the spectrum of survival challenges.

cyan flame
#

That should go for all critters though, not just apexes, unless they should have less challenges? :p

lone crypt
#

Hey can we stop using alt turn as an excuse for a dinosaur not having a good turn radius? From what I’ve heard, alt turn isn’t gonna be around after the combat overhaul, so anyone who thinks a Dino is balanced simply because it can alt-turn to defend itself, can drop it already.

umbral prairie
#

well It will hopefully be there in some form, just slower and with a proper animation

cyan copper
#

Avas should probably be able to fight back a bit. As it is now, they just kinda run in circles.

@verbal acorn

#

I totally agree, maybe some infection system.

@lone crypt you can stop lying to yourself my dude..and speculation and false expectations arent good for your healthdondiLUL

Dondi already said this morning that soon it will be permanent.............

Going to be awkward when alt turn disabling is removed.

#

@lone crypt

stiff fiber
#

my friends and I don't play on official because of alt turn

#

will have to quit playing all together if they remove the ability to disable it

violet magnet
#

it's a core game mechanic

stiff fiber
#

so how does it help and how is it not destroying the whole point of dinos having different turning abilities

violet magnet
#

it helps in that with alt turn you can negate buttriding

idle needle
#

If you suddenly find yourself at the edge of a cliff, you need to be able to turn around without walking off the cliff. Every animal on land can turn in place.

violet magnet
#

and alt turn isn't an instant turn, rex's alt turn is still pretty slow

#

*and cliffs

stiff fiber
#

so basically why play anything other than rex because rex should have no weakness

knotty wadi
#

The biggest issues are alt turn is not consistent (gigas is instant, allos is slow) and there is no animation

violet magnet
#

rex is an animal in a game, it should have weaknesses

idle needle
#

Cerato has an animation

#

It's just a little clumsy

knotty wadi
#

Most don't

idle needle
#

And it's very difficult to do that

#

This is an early access game

violet magnet
#

the default alt turn "animation" is the dino's walk turn animation, just slowed way down

stiff fiber
#

so if working properly it won't be a turn on a dime type thing?

knotty wadi
#

Then there are clearly bugs in that because that is not true for all dinos

idle needle
#

Look, Wattzson

#

Stand in place

#

Don't move, then turn around

#

You can turn on a dime

#

Dogs can do this

#

Ostriches can do this

#

Snails can do this

violet magnet
#

hell, elephants can do this

idle needle
#

You just have to be stationary

#

The only things that can't move in the air or water when they can't

#

It's so dumb when people try to rationalize video game mechanics with reality

idle needle
#

I mean, it's our frame of reference

cyan flame
#

Turn radius still matters in movement, and we need something to prevent people from just staying behind someone "forever", since that doesn't make for fun combat, and not fun for the one that can't do much about it.

stiff fiber
#

Only if you decide for it to be

cyan flame
#

So.. if you dislike alt turn, come up with a better alternative to it that works better and prevents assriding just as well, if not better even :p

stiff fiber
#

a better frame of reference could be making a decent combat mechanic for a survival game

idle needle
#

Part of the selling point of this game is immersion, it's hard to be immersed if you are constantly having to suspend your disbelief that a fully functional predator can't turn around and bite the thing behind it

#

Look, that is coming

#

There is going to be a combat overhaul

#

They've been talking about it for some time now

#

The devs are doing a re-work of the base code of the game to make that happen

#

Collision will exist. No more "stand inside the butt and bite"

#

Locational damage will be a thing

violet magnet
#

until we get the combat overhaul, alt turn is essential to counter buttriding

idle needle
#

no more "rex bit the tip of my tail, now I'm dead"

#

Yes

#

Exactly

#

Please take a moment and consider that you are trying to emotionally manipulate an entire team of developers because the game doesn't work exactly how you want it to

#

Which is what you're doing, threatening to quit the game if you don't get your way

#

Thank you for your consideration. Happy dino-ing!

Are we doing it again?

#

alt turn discussion

idle needle
#

They stopped

#

It's done.

mystic kestrel
#

good

#

when will they learn

sly hatch
#

Imagine saying someone not liking how the game works is emotional manipulation

#

But I agree alt turn isn’t needed

versed blaze
#

Dondi has ruled his ruling, good luck changing it.

verbal acorn
#

Alt-turn is a reasonable stand in as a simplified mechanic to provide a large dino protection/deterrence from being unrealistically ass-raped by smaller, more maneuverable dinos.

The desire to deactivate alt-turn is for the sole purpose of letting small dinos to grief large dinos. Alt-turn is and should be countered by one things....numbers.

Alt-turn deters the unrealistic and unbalanced soloing of larger, stronger dinos with a smaller, weaker one...but what people fail to mention is that well executed attacking with a reasonable amount of cumulative tonnage through packs defeats alt-turn.

Alt-turn isn’t granting large dinos invincibility, it encourages a much more realistic requirement for group tactics vs larger dinos.

cursive wind
#

what if nests increased the chance for ai to spawn nearby? it is influenced by the number of dinos around it, eggs hatched, gestang, and incubating. potentially lowering ai spawns aswell.

#

this would only allow sub adults to make such affects, or perhaps the ai spawn influence only begins once the nest owner is a full adult?

hazy sparrow
#

Some dinos like Utah do very little bleed to large dinos, something in the area of 0.25dmg/second (per bite), even though it LOOKS like they're bleeding more @weak herald

#

You can't die from bleed while sitting, bleed still heals naturally over time while standing. (Just slower)

nocturne skiff
#

@brazen wolf there is a way to make it visible all the time you just have to change it in settings

silver dagger
#

@kind blaze I'm with you on the elder mechanic. I've been drawing elder concepts for awhile now. I don't think it's anything that needs added until the game is totally done otherwise. It's a lot of work to make them unique enough to be worth the extra development. I'm sure they'll be modded in for realism servers even if we don't get official elders ever.

coarse shell
#

@weak herald will be a thing soon

weak herald
#

@coarse shell Awesome, thank you 😃

astral forge
#

and maybe the elders could be slightly bigger

#

juuuust a bit

silver dagger
#

Yeah I know I make my elders look huge in concepts I draw of them, but they're intended to only be a bit bigger than regular full sized adults.

#

Mostly just fatter.

astral forge
#

i had the gentle thought of a hypo while looking at that

silver dagger
#

My elder trike definitely went a little over the top and into magna territory. Tried to dial up the herbivores and dial down certain carnivores with strains in mind. But anyway probably not how the team would end up doing it if they have official elders.

astral forge
#

i feel like elders wouldnt be too different

#

just a lil bigger and looking olde

#

maybe scars yknow

silver dagger
#

Mhm, I heard Dondi on a stream play around with the idea of having male highlight colors go whiter.

astral forge
#

ooo

silver dagger
#

Nothing set in stone, but something along those lines would be neat. Really anything to show you've been alive longer than others.

thorny lynx
#

I just wanna see what allo mouths do. It looks like they have some sort of jaw gape restriction in their models and cannot open their jaw wide enough.

brazen wolf
#

@nocturne skiff ThankYouIdidntKnowThat👌

violet magnet
#

@kind spire very much against involuntary, unnecessary calls

#

if there are any carnis around to hear the herbi 4-call then they would flock to the herbi and hunt it instead of eating whatever food's there

#

@kind spire i did offer a counter argument...

kind spire
#

So no canris ever sniff?

#

Gotcha.

violet magnet
#

i doubt a pack of allos would bother sniffing for other food if they heard a para 4 call nearby

#

they'd just hunt the para

kind spire
#

Right in 30 mins of a hunt to look for tracks and no further calls no one would ever sniff

#

You got it bro

violet magnet
silver dagger
#

I'm confused what you are meaning. You want herbivores to involuntarily 4 call, I get that. But why do you think they wouldn't hunt the living herbivore?

kind spire
#

I feel like as a carnivore you'd hear a fear call in the area and approach as the rest are encouraged to evacuate. Meaning carnivore hears then semi homes in then sniffs when no sounds (unless someone has a death wish) as do others.. Unless the heribivore outside of the corpse range say.. Idk 20m keeps yelling.. Why chase what's gone when ya got free food.. Then canri stand off.. Herbs furthe away thus (realistically) and then the smart or strongest survive

silver dagger
#

They'd just eat the corpse and hunt the herbivore because it would be easy to track.

kind spire
#

Think of it as a sirens call as the vulnerable flee and the ships or killers sail in

violet magnet
#

the carnis would hunt the herbis

kind spire
#

Would they? Everyone just ran in

violet magnet
#

carnis on official will literally walk away from food to go hunt something

silver dagger
#

I'm kinda confused about your whole scenario, I've seen carnivore packs kill as much as possible to save food for later. They'll kill what's running then go back for the corpses that they've left behind.

kind spire
#

I assume all of that has been visable

silver dagger
#

All of what?

kind spire
#

The kills

silver dagger
#

Either way. They like to chase.

violet magnet
#

also
"no sounds (unless someone has a death wish)"

#

yes, because making noise in this game gets you killed

#

and you want to force herbis to 4-call if they walk into the vicinity of a dead body?

#

how would they even know if there was a body nearby?

silver dagger
#

They already plan to have it lower herbivore affinity to be too near a corpse right?

kind spire
#

It does. It also gets your killer killed a lot of the time

violet magnet
#

the killer won't be forced to 4 call tho

#

the killer can remain silent

kind spire
#

Idk about the lower affinity..

silver dagger
#

I'm pretty sure that's the solution they will have for corpse guarding.

kind spire
#

Sounds ok to me though. Out of sight out of mind

violet magnet
#

the heck is that supposed to mean? 😂

kind spire
#

Side note :how would herbs know? Same way carnivore finds ai when close

violet magnet
#

i will definitely mind if i'm foraging for bushes but 4-calling every 5 seconds because there's a body nearby i can't see

#

carnivores find ai because it makes noise

kind spire
#

And herbivores avoid because noise..

#

Your point is?

violet magnet
#

ai doesn't spawn around herbivores

#

or dead bodies

kind spire
#

Pretty sure it does, and the three dryos and dibbles I hit up don't agree

#

No shame old rather eat an an AI than your hour or two of work

spiral pond
#

Ai doesn’t spawn around her is anymore, only near carnis

#

Also imagine you kill a taco that is screaming, what happens? You start 4 calling cause you killed a taco, which means your dead if any carnivore is nearby

kind spire
#

Bummer was that the new update? What about the velico, that chases tiny herbs and carnis

violet magnet
#

3 dryos and dibbles don't agree with.....what?

#

i really don't know what you're hoping to accomplish here. To make herbis more easily tracked, like the noisy ai...?

silver dagger
#

An immediate punishment for simply being near a corpse doesn't make sense. It would doom herbivores even if they're playing smart and planning to leave the area of the body as soon as they happen upon it, or have murdered something. Only once they stay on top of a corpse to guard it for a period of time should there be any negative effect in my opinion.

spiral pond
#

^

coarse shell
#

@junior jacinth that'll be happening sometime already, oro and taco were never meant to give this much food anyway

spiral pond
#

Or let’s imagine a different scenario, you are in a big herd with a dryo, Utah charges through and kills the dryo, the whole herd starts screaming for basically no reason at all. Giga comes up and kills half the herd, and then allos come and bam herd is gone.

kind spire
#

Not saying they need to 4 call on cool down.. Just once per minute till they get out of the area on smell alone... More of a broadcast as they assure "something died here"and gtfo.. Maybe one per 5 mins.. You just need to know before you gtfo and alert a general area. Same goes for a kill for a carnivore.. Some claim roar should go out on auto

spiral pond
#

Just...no

silver dagger
#

No. No please.

violet magnet
#

why tho

kind spire
#

Idk.. Irks an idea

junior jacinth
#

@coarse shell hope so soon, playing carnivore has been too easy since the implementation of AI. I'm aware it is a crutch currently, but it can still be tuned for better balance.

spiral pond
#

Yo can’t force something to make noise

#

That’s a death sentence in the isle if you don’t know

violet magnet
#

if i come across a random body i'll want to make LESS noise in case whatever killed it is still around

silver dagger
#

At least you shouldn't force a player who is playing well to make noise. For example you take damage and make a noise when starving because you've played poorly to allow yourself to begin starving.

kind spire
#

I mean you can force hitman to have people see people you killed.. I just don't know the balance needed to keep from corpse guarding or trying to hide it

coarse shell
#

affinity will fix corpse guarding

#

thats it

violet magnet
#

corpseguarding is a player behavior, not part of the core gameplay

coarse shell
#

we dont need herbs yelling every minute because a corpse is in their personal space

kind spire
#

Corpse guarding for a carni or an herbi?

pure copper
#

You know what else will fix corpse guarding

coarse shell
#

herbs guarding corpses

pure copper
#

Corpse dragging dondiWeSmart

junior jacinth
#

The devs are trying to find ways to mitigate improper behavior via mechanics and consequences, affinity will solve it.

silver dagger
#

Hilla's right though, with negative affinity impact for herbivores staying too close to a body for too long combined with body dragging. Issue will be fixed.

kind spire
#

I got that, but for those that cannot drag, what is the negative incentive? Id figure herbivores in close contact screaming to call bigger carnivores would help

violet magnet
#

calling in bigger carnivores would do the opposite of help

silver dagger
#

It would feed the bigger carnivores exclusively.

#

You can already scream like crazy to attract something to eat your foes lol

kind spire
#

I mean they need more food as well? Idk.. I'm not a paid game dev. It's ultimately just a thought experiment

#

I just have felt like the added danger to a signal is where the majority of where the fun and excitement begins. At least for me 90% of it is like yeah I need to run and hide and I only yell over any food to survive. I don't usually play herbi though.

#

I'd figure screams only around a corpse as you run or walk away would be a good survival thing

silver dagger
#

I think people are just saying you need to let the player choose if they want to call or not. Maybe there will be some positive affinity for calling like to establish territory to make it worthwhile.

kind spire
#

But if I'm wrong that's fair

#

True..

#

It just seems so hard to balance if you don't force at least one aspect on each subclass..

#

Idk maybe a 5 call that neither half could hear even? It almost sounds fair

#

I really have nothing..

#

Dalton Reutlinger really needs a cohost.. Unpopular opinion ik

#

While I enjoy the asmr aspect of his isle videos..

#

If you want more than oof more

#

Idk

nova ice
#

Having a choice in a game is nearly always better than forcing something on the player, even if it is as simple as a 4 call. That and I don't think it makes sense anyway, I doubt any prey-animal that wanders into the vicinity of a predator territory calls a bunch unless it's a sentry warning a herd...in which case the players would do that themselves.

I heard also that affinity thing? Like herbivores acting non-herbivore like in the game (being near carnis/corpses) causes their DNA to degrade or something that's already a negative effect? I haven't had a chance to keep up with videos but that's what some VCs I heard were saying.

silver dagger
#

@lone hatch I'm almost positive that they'll allow servers to turn off certain factions. Humans have always been planned, they aren't going to just cancel them.

spiral pond
#

If I’m honest I don’t like the concept of humans, but I roll with it, in the early stages where humans will probably eat too op a lot of servers will turn them off, later when humans are balanced I wouldn’t have that much problems with em

#

I would start killing all humans as galli dondiTroll

lone hatch
#

@silver dagger but then community will divide

silver dagger
#

What?

lone hatch
#

Sorry now better

silver dagger
#

Oh, well yeah that's kind of the point. The playerbase is only going to grow with the inclusion of the other factions, it's important to have server options to cater to different subsections of the community.

lone hatch
#

Ye I hope they will add this option

silver dagger
#

Like I said, almost positive they will. I'm sure plenty of people will want to have servers with only regular dinosaurs and no strains, only dinosaurs + tribals but no mercenaries, literally any combination of the factions to suit the desires of the server owner. I wouldn't worry too much about it just yet.

spiral pond
#

Actually we kinda want players to kill ai, that way you have a reason going herbivore without anything that sees you wanting to kill you to sustain itself

#

And getting buffs by kills is a real bad idea, since you could basically end up with Rex chasing down carnos

#

You would have mini hypos with less hunger drain

noble dirge
#

Have you played herbivore without anything trying to kill you? It's just a sit around and eat simulator. Now I'm not saying AI should be taken out completely and rely on us strangling each other for sustenance like it used to be, no the AI is a great addition but it also needs to be balanced in a way that people actually play the game again. But yeah that's why I said not game breaking, maybe Rexes wouldn't be able to gain speed or if any make it very little, whatever works for balance's favor but still fun and rewarding.

spiral pond
#

Did you try playing herbivore before ai ? You had no other choice then to hide, since literally EVERYTHING went after you cuz your a herbivore

#

Also this could be job for affinity

#

Who knows

#

Also another reason people aren’t killing herbs is there are almost none since they are really bad in some cases

#

And need to be in corner of the map

noble dirge
#

Oh yeah I remember, but like I think with the overly fattening AI at the moment we hit the scale all the way the other side and now need some balance back. This is just an idea I feel would also make every player unique not just "another Rex or Allo and we know how fast or strong it is".

spiral pond
#

The ai is getting fixed soon

noble dirge
#

I mean yeah they could fix the AI, or maybe take a few things out of my suggestion to implement some more interesting gameplay then what we have now.

spiral pond
#

Also I like that you can tell what can or cannot kill you

#

Again affinity

true haven
#

who said no one hunts herbis

#

every herbis always get the time the he was hunted

#

all players attracted to herbis

#

like shants are untouchable

spiral pond
#

And getting buffs for killing herb juvies or subs would break the game

noble dirge
#

Who said it had to be Juvies?

spiral pond
#

Then subs

noble dirge
#

Or Subs?

#

"of course balanced enough not to make it game breaking"

#

Devs can take that as they will.

fallen cipher
#

hoy lads, so quick question, what's your favorite dino and why ? ^_^

noble dirge
#

Wrong channel.

fallen cipher
#

Maybe a reddit thread would do better justice to this question actually

#

^

spiral pond
#

Again affinity will give you buffs in reasonable way

#

Pretty sure devs will make it so you can’t feed you adult Rex entirely off ai

#

Without bad affinity

noble dirge
#

I still feel affinity should be something working against you, making you play how the dino is supposed to be. The extra buffs would help you resist affinity, rewarding you with an easier way to survive if just slightly for the more effort you put.

spiral pond
#

I mean slight buffs

#

Not some crazy buffs

noble dirge
#

Yeah that's what I mean basically, I'm not saying a Rex should gain Galli speed for catching one.

spiral pond
#

But buffs from kills is still way too easy

hazy sparrow
#

I can just imagine rex getting gali speed now... the horror

noble dirge
#

Living off AI is way too easy.

spiral pond
#

And it will be punished

noble dirge
#

Shit don't say that my Maia was just jumped by a Rex.

spiral pond
#

Maia has momentum a bit so it will catch you f close enough in a forest

noble dirge
#

Would be nice to be rewarded by something worthwhile like a buff after killing player dinos.

#

It was night and my friend led a Rex to me.

hazy sparrow
#

The affinity system will most likely have something similar. The reward is getting the stronger version of your dino.

spiral pond
#

And this could promote KOS in a way

hazy sparrow
#

Reward for every kill is instant gratification, this game relies more on time-spent playing than just getting kills.

spiral pond
#

Instead of killing 1 para, you kill entire herd to get a bigger buff

noble dirge
#

They could always give the buff a timer when you can gain again, something reasonable.

#

But also this game is meant to be a survival game, kill or be killed. Also in the same way it can make people think twice about getting reckless, dying and losing your buffs.

spiral pond
#

Or it will make you more and more reckless since your bigger and better

noble dirge
#

Balance is the key.

hazy sparrow
#

do bushes spawn like AI? I think they're just randomly placed all over the map, aren't they?

lime olive
#

Yes

hazy sparrow
#

"yes" to which?

barren zephyr
#

they spawn randomly

waxen talon
#

is that confirmed?

#

and where is it confirmed

barren zephyr
#

i can't show you any Dev confirmation but it's what i can tell you out of experience

waxen talon
#

so its not confirmed

spiral pond
#

Tbh there are areas that are completely barren on bushes

barren zephyr
#

nope it's not confirmed

#

sorry if i mislead anyone that was not my meaning

spiral pond
#

So that’s why they are not moving that much

barren zephyr
#

intention*

#

because unlike ai (again from my experience) they do have set spawn points

#

but it's random if they spawn at those point

#

you can actually test this is you dont play on an official dev server

glossy garden
#

They should rollback to the previous hunger values for adult giga and rex since the new AI is in the game.

lime olive
#

They are dotted around the map as edible bushes

#

Not spawn in?? wdf

barren zephyr
#

if you sit at one point on the map where there are a lot of bushes then the server crashes the bushes spawns reset themselves

waxen talon
#

So you're saying they have a set location?

#

And regenerate slowly after being eaten?

#

@lime olive

lime olive
#

Yes

barren zephyr
#

they have set spawn locations i think

waxen talon
#

That was my belief too, glad someone shares it.

barren zephyr
#

then if you eat one bush completetly it respawns somewhere else

#

but there are certain places on the map witch dont seem to have spawn locations

#

again this is all from my own experience/testing no actual dev confirmation at all

waxen talon
#

Val, bushes doesn't despawn.

#

You can still see their model, just without leafes.

#

And they grow back extremely slow.

barren zephyr
#

never seen them regrow actually could be a thing ill have to check that

waxen talon
#

Talking hours(?)

#

From spending way too much time in 1 place ..

lament thorn
#

@fleet flax both males and females I'll need to take part in order to nest

hazy sparrow
#

yea for now you dont need a male to nest, but will eventually

#

It would be cool if AI actually got thirsty/hungry and had to eat and drink. Might be hard to code though 😄

barren zephyr
#

it would probably be doable but takes a lot of time to code in, time they rather spend on other things

#

but yeah would help make the world feel just that bit more "alive" 😄

umbral prairie
#

bushes do 'despawn' after a server restart, the bushes are not in the same spot all the time

barren zephyr
#

but who knows, I'm personally very impressed at the rate they are shooting out updates lately

umbral prairie
#

Does anyone have something I've missed in my suggestions? In my mind they would work out but I'm not sure if I thought about all aspects

true haven
#

and even they release the update like commonly its content actually worth it

#

in the next month we might have locational damage

#

this month body dragging

umbral prairie
#

I don't think so, aren't they focusing on the code rework the next months?

barren zephyr
#

not all of them are gems, it show they are actively working on new features and additional content

umbral prairie
#

I would not expect any updates until late april

hazy sparrow
#

dragging a live dino into the water as sucho and drowning it yes

umbral prairie
#

maybe not as sucho but as deino

hazy sparrow
#

😄

barren zephyr
#

that would be... the best way to troll 😛

#

dino torture

#

"tell me what I want to know! or ill waterboard you!"

true haven
#

yeah and like the dragging it speed is affected by the size if it is 3/4 of the dinos weight it cant be drag in , but if it less it can , and also if it has lower weight it can be drag in faster and so if it has more weight it will have to be drag in slower

hazy sparrow
#

Yeah I was just thinking a gali or something when I said sucho

barren zephyr
#

and stamina drain would need to be taken into acount

hazy sparrow
#

Deino could probably drag a whole para in

umbral prairie
#

depends on how long it has grown, maybe if it's been around long enough it could drag a rex? I'm not sure if it's true but I've heard deinos will not stop growing until they are so big they can't get enough food to sustain themselves

hazy sparrow
#

Even shant and spino weigh more than rex 😄 would be interesting to see the possibilities

barren zephyr
#

well i think there will be a limit to it's size, think there would be to many gameplay issues if they could actually grow for ever

umbral prairie
#

I think the limit will be set with hunger drain

hazy sparrow
#

People would also know to avoid such a creature, except the blind ones

glossy garden
#

what do you guys think about adding in survival hypo classes?

umbral prairie
#

the devs have plans on having hypers playable, but I think that will be in the far future as they never talked about how the hypers (and potentially other strains) will be implemented. I hope it will be very hard and annoying so the servers aren't full of hypers all the time

spiral pond
#

No

#

Magnas possibly

#

But hard to get

umbral prairie
#

I hope there will be no more than 1-2 strains at a time per server, even that is pretty much if you think about how strong and fast hypers are

glossy garden
#

i agree, 1-2 max

umbral prairie
#

first three ideas are nice, but I feel like wind affecting your scent could be annoying, and I don't really get what benefits you would have from marking your territory as it would either lure in big carnivores or give yourself away for potential prey

lament thorn
#

@fading shadow doesnt that just promote excessive killing

violet magnet
#

@clear turret where are people getting "the in-game sun sets at 4pm"? This is the second time I've seen someone complain about it and I don't...get it?

#

is there an in-game clock that i haven't enabled?

#

also the entire day-night cycle takes roughly an hour, going off of music cues, but night seems longer because of the extra five minutes of darkness at dawn and dusk
so day is like 20 minutes and night is 40

fading shadow
#

@lament thorn yes but that’s the point

#

Hypo gotta eat

lament thorn
#

its not a hypo

barren zephyr
#

gotta try a new strat

fading shadow
#

@lament thorn yes it is

#

The deino never stops growing

#

It grows into hypo size

#

With hypo hunger

lament thorn
#

hypos dont grow

fading shadow
#

It’s not called a hypo

lament thorn
#

big doesnt equal hypo

fading shadow
#

But it’s fundamentally the same

lament thorn
#

can you find the confirmation that its hunger drains like a hypo cause that seems very impractical for an ambush creature that has to wait for its food to come to it

fading shadow
#

Dondi said it in the QnA

#

Go look

leaden night
#

They devs said it will progressively keep growing until its hunger is unsustainable

#

Go scroll through offical answers, ya lazy Para bastard

fading shadow
lament thorn
#

lazy?

#

didn't know asking for confirmation equalled lazy but aight yah bastard

#

In the bottom right corner is the in-game clock

iirc it doesnt need to be enabled, it is just hard to find heh

#

@brazen wolf You REALLY don't like it XD

brazen wolf
#

no

#

it's already hard to grow apex

brisk mesa
#

Uh.

#

Hard?

brazen wolf
#

there is 5 % chance to make make it to adult hood

#

and 12 hour would be im 0

brisk mesa
#

So 80% of the server being apex rn

#

Does that not... conflict?

#

With a 5% success rate?

brazen wolf
#

apex will kill apex

brisk mesa
#

Nah. You sit in a corner.

#

And eat Avas.

#

It's mind numbing.

#

Apex growing is ez.

brazen wolf
#

Who Sit in the corner

brisk mesa
#

But not hard.

brazen wolf
#

after growth they like to have fun

brisk mesa
#

80% of the server, apparently.

brazen wolf

only to be get killed by other apex

I grew one last night and kamikaze into an apex fam

brisk mesa

All sat around doing jackshit

viral creek

It's easy peasy chicken squeezy

warm ridge
#

5% chance? what

brazen wolf
#

so 12 hour would be too much of investment

viral creek
#

I mean

brisk mesa
#

No, it's not; because they'd all need to invest 12hrs

brazen wolf
#

herbs got easy life too

viral creek
#

He said you will become fresh apex at a normal rate

barren zephyr
#

Increasing growth time is the worst way to solve a problem

brazen wolf

why ant you complaing about herbs

brisk mesa
#

What? Herbs have it harder than predators atm.

viral creek

I would like unlockable apexes with 7 hours

what

brisk mesa
#

My idea still gets your apex after like 6hrs lmao

brazen wolf
#

even thought its 6 hours

brisk mesa
#

Just not 1.0 Apex.

brazen wolf
#

not alot of players will make it

barren zephyr
#

fresh adult

#

apexes are trash

#

every fresh adult

#

are trash

warm ridge
#

ok

brazen wolf
#

so increasing time will only make it hard

brisk mesa
#

Does a fresh adult Giga lose to 1 Allo?

brazen wolf
#

and frustrating if dead

viral creek
#

Fresh adult apexes can still stand on their own

barren zephyr
#

make it hard in a boring way

brazen wolf
#

yes it does

#

it has no chance

#

allo too strong

warm ridge
#

allo too strong please nerf

cyan flame
#

Are you currently unable to survive on these servers you play on? :p

brazen wolf
#

try surviving 7 hour in a full server

#

it's impossible

brisk mesa
#

What?

brazen wolf
#

even utha and dillo could kill sub

#

in a group

warm ridge
#

not impossible if there's so many people growing as apexes

#

and succeeding

brisk mesa
#

^^^^

#

XD

brazen wolf
#

They die too

#

it's just that they grow apex when server is empty

cyan flame
#

You're all bothered by something that isn't an actual issue though xD

warm ridge
#

did you hear the part where they succeeded at growing

brazen wolf
#

try growing apex in 200 slot server

viral creek
#

Literally over half of the server is apexes. They are quite literally eating the server

brisk mesa
#

Erik,80% of a server being apexes

#

IS a problem

barren zephyr
#

Lock apexes

cyan flame
#

Watt: Can you survive or not?

barren zephyr
#

bye

#

solved

brazen wolf
#

if they invest time they deserve to eat

barren zephyr
#

make it unlockable by affinity

#

somehow

brazen wolf
#

othher playrs

cyan flame
#

You know my view on that xD

barren zephyr
#

bye solved

warm ridge
#

Raptor did you hear the part where half of the server are apexes

#

imagine half the server eating the other half

brazen wolf
#

who told you that

warm ridge
#

THE CHAT HAS BEEN SAYING THAT

barren zephyr
#

I THINK it's depends on the server

brazen wolf
#

most of the players are mid tire players

warm ridge
#

The whole time

woven marsh
#

The best way to control apex numbers is to make it so that AI doesn't spawn around apexes. That way the server can only sustain a certain number of apexes since they require other players or AI spawned by other players for food. It will also limit pack sizes to 1-2 since bigger packs will starve. Longer grow times is interesting but wont curb apex numbers.

brisk mesa
#

Official servers

#

Are literally all that matters.

brazen wolf
#

not alot of players like to spend 7 hoours on dino

brisk mesa
#

over 60 people on a 100 player server

#

Apparently are fine

#

With spending 6hrs growing Apex

barren zephyr
#

tbh when i die with a sub apex

#

i didnt start apex for

warm ridge
#

you guys need profile pics it'll be hard to distinguish between uncle and pseudo

barren zephyr
#

atleast 3-4 days

brazen wolf
#

6 hour is hard bro

brisk mesa
#

Pseudo has a good point

brazen wolf
#

try growing giga

brisk mesa
#

Dude, it isnt hard.

brazen wolf
#

and talk to me after that

barren zephyr
#

Watt

brazen wolf
#

if ppl see you you dead

brisk mesa
#

Yes.

#

Dont be seen.

brazen wolf
#

even utha could fk you up

barren zephyr
#

As i've said making something harder with increased growth time is the worst thing ever.

brazen wolf
#

you need to drink and eat

#

so need to get out

brisk mesa
#

Ricsi, normally I'd agree with you.

warm ridge
#

do you play on no alt servers

brisk mesa
#

Truly.

brazen wolf
#

it's not that easy as you thin

#

then you get killed after 4 hours

brisk mesa
#

Normally I'm all for harder gameplay

brazen wolf
#

most ppl get pissed

brisk mesa
#

At lower time.

#

But they just made gameplay EXPONENTIALLY EASIER.

brazen wolf
#

it's not easy

#

have you played apex in survival

brisk mesa
#

Uncle, it's absolutely trivial on official server.

#

Yeah.

brazen wolf
#

it's almost impossible to survive

warm ridge
#

yes he did

brazen wolf
#

try it today

brisk mesa
#

If you think this is hard my guy...

warm ridge
brazen wolf
#

if you make it to adult then survive for a week

#

then talk to me

warm ridge
#

no

brazen wolf
#

i bet you wont survive a day

brisk mesa
#

Staying alive... isn't relevant to the discussion?

viral creek
#

I played apex last night. Grew it on 1st try by afking in a corner.

I kamikazed into an apex fam because I realized I was contributing to their cancerous numbers and wanted to die.

brisk mesa
#

We are stating how easy obtaining apex is.

warm ridge
#

We talking growth

brisk mesa
#

^^^^

languid ember
#

i had a 90% success rate growing a giga before the buffs, so if it's not easy for you now you're doing something really fucking wrong

warm ridge
#

thank kev

brazen wolf
#

well 12 hour is too much to ask to play apex

#

the growth time is ok

#

right now

#

and it's hard

viral creek
#

You can be an apex in six hours

brazen wolf
#

not so easy

viral creek
#

Just not a full apex

#

It's easy

warm ridge
#

how about 10 hours

#

same as cam

#

aparently

brazen wolf
#

try is solo anti apex

#

not in a grou

viral creek
#

I did

waxen elk
#

Apexes are easy

#

end of the story

viral creek
#

I told you how I died earlier

brazen wolf
#

if so easy for you and dont like it dontplay

waxen elk
#

There's too much of them and it needs to end

brazen wolf
#

play herbs

#

it's so challengingfor you

cyan flame
#

Too much according to you at least :p

viral creek
#

Nono the issue is. Apexes are literally taking over the server

waxen elk
warm ridge
#

That's a terrible argument uncle like

waxen elk
#

The bias of this dude is unreal

brisk mesa
#

Potato, my suggestion is about offsetting how powerful you are for the time you spend growing.

umbral prairie
#

I'd be ok with 10-12 hours if the stats didn't scale proportionally, but would get better faster at the start of the adult phase and only very slowly at the end, so a full grown rex can't completely fuck over a 9 hour rex. should of course be stronger, but not that much

waxen elk
#

GIGA SHOULD BE GOD AND KILL EVERYTHING IN THE ISLE BECAUSE I SAY SO AND IT'S MY FAVOURITE DINO 😠 😠 😠

warm ridge
#

Yeah but isn't 10 hours already better than 6

brazen wolf
#

well apex is not power ful if attaced by a group of raptor

#

rex could die

waxen elk
#

Apexes literally heal raptor bites when running

brisk mesa
warm ridge
#

do you play on non alt servers

brisk mesa
#

^^^^

#

He does

viral creek
#

Apexes demolish raptors now

brisk mesa
#

Explains everything

viral creek
#

Raptors are like fleas to apexes

waxen elk
#

If you die to a raptor as an apex you might want to reconsider life

brazen wolf
#

no they are not anti

waxen elk
#

And take a good moment to think what are you doing wront

viral creek
#

Yes they are

brazen wolf
#

i have seen 2 rex geting harrased by bunch of raptors

viral creek
#

Harassed

waxen elk
#

How the fuck

viral creek
#

Not killed

cyan flame
#

Depends on if you have alt turn or not :p

brisk mesa
#

Erik Alt turn servers are all that matter.

viral creek
#

I get harassed every day by my mom boi.

brisk mesa
#

LOL

waxen elk
viral creek
#

Harassing and killing are different things

brisk mesa
#

Local man is slayed by mom, who then gives him CPR, daily

warm ridge
#

If you play on servers that cancel a vital game mechanic made to counter utahs and dilos riding you

brazen wolf
#

they kill rex easy

waxen elk
#

They don't

viral creek
#

That's a lie

brazen wolf
#

sub have no chance

waxen elk
#

It's over 100 hits

#

Subs one shot them

brazen wolf
#

no it's not

cyan flame
#

I know that Watt.. xD

waxen elk
#

Yes it is

viral creek
#

Yes it is

brazen wolf
#

they too fast

waxen elk
#

you just suck at the game

brisk mesa
#

Big brain play: stand your ground, alt turn, left click

#

Profit

brazen wolf
#

so who wants to grow 12 hour dino just to get killed by bunch of raptors

viral creek
#

Trust me utahs just think they're doing damage to an adult apex

waxen elk
#

Im sorry but if you die to raptors as apex you're doing something terribly wrong

#

If being an apex is so hard

#

why is 90% of the server Rex or Giga?

umbral prairie
#

you don't get killed by raptors as an apex unless you let them bite you for 10 minutes

viral creek
#

You will not die to raptors as a full grown apex unless you're bad at being an apex, then you should maybe reconsider your dino selection

brazen wolf
#

not 90 % mabe 10%

warm ridge
#

What do you do when you're getting attacked by raptors uncle

brazen wolf
#

most of them are mid tie dino

#

and herbs

warm ridge
#

10%? dondiSquint

waxen elk
#

What?

brisk mesa
#

Uncle, what are you... what?

#

Official servers?????

#

NANI?

viral creek
#

Are you high

umbral prairie
#

I've never seen a single apex get killed by raptors

brazen wolf
#

haha

viral creek
#

Have you been on official

waxen elk
#

Mid tiers barely exist anymore

warm ridge
#

Are you baiting

viral creek
barren zephyr
#

only carnivores that exist are apexes and utahs

brazen wolf
#

i dont see lot of apex around

waxen elk
#

And some Ceratos here and there

barren zephyr
#

wat

viral creek
#

What server are you on

umbral prairie
#

I got killed as a .9 sub rex once but the raptor pack was 11 raptors big and I killed 5 of them

cyan flame
#

Your us servers must be so weird :p

warm ridge
#

you must not get around then

brisk mesa
#

@brazen wolf What servers do you play on

waxen elk
#

I see an apex every corner i go

barren zephyr
#

they must be

brazen wolf
#

us 123

barren zephyr
#

no alt turn

waxen elk
#

w t f

viral creek
#

I don't believe you

brazen wolf
#

they are subs

barren zephyr
#

w b a t

vague salmon
#

Wasn't there already a time where apexes took that long to grow?

waxen elk
#

Lies

warm ridge
#

Again uncle do you play on servers without alt turn?

viral creek
#

Or you are very lucky

barren zephyr
#

potato

#

he plays on us 123

#

he sais

warm ridge
#

what

brazen wolf
#

not fully grown . they will be killed by mid tire players

waxen elk
#

xd?????????????

viral creek
#

I see full grown apexes literally everywhere on official.

brazen wolf
#

what do you play

waxen elk
#

I have seen

barren zephyr
#

dilo

waxen elk
#

two allos since the update

viral creek
#

Pachy and cerato

brazen wolf
#

you could out run them

waxen elk
#

and one pack

barren zephyr
#

i play d i l o

viral creek
#

That's not the pount

warm ridge
#

That's not the point

barren zephyr
#

there arnt any

#

mid tier players

waxen elk
#

Both Allos got killed by a Giga in front of me

brazen wolf
#

sooo if you could run away what is the problem

#

why you want to make life of apex difficult

waxen elk
#

Apexes are everywhere, which obviously is a sign that they're too easy

viral creek
#

The point is apexes have a higher population than mid teirs. Animals like sucho and diablo are practically extinct because of apex

brazen wolf
#

as it alreasdy is

waxen elk
#

It should be dificult

#

It's easy as fuck

viral creek
#

Trikes are also getting crushed pretty bad

warm ridge
#

It isn't difficult rn

brazen wolf
#

nooo herbs are going extinct

waxen elk
#

Sit in corner of the map with river

#

Wait for Ai to spawn

barren zephyr
#

apex life is supposed to be

umbral prairie
#

you can't discuss with uncle raptor, I've tried it when they tried to convince me giga lost on a face tank pre patch although there was a gif in the chat showing giga wins

barren zephyr
#

difficult

brazen wolf
#

just becasue apex are fun to play dont make it difficult

waxen elk
#

Repeat for 6 hours

warm ridge
#

What?

brazen wolf
#

make other dino more attractive

#

to play

brisk mesa
#

@umbral prairie Gotcha

barren zephyr
#

you cant

#

with the way apexes are

umbral prairie
#

it's like talking with flat earthers

waxen elk
#

This is stupid

barren zephyr
#

apexes will always be stronger

brazen wolf
#

for eg make night darkerfor dillo

waxen elk
#

No dude

brazen wolf
#

so pll start playing dillo

barren zephyr
#

that wouldent make people play dilo

viral creek
#

I love mid teirs, many people like mid teirs, but apexes are so strong and easy that thet're becoming the plauge

barren zephyr
#

thats not how that works

warm ridge
#

It's like talking to people on a roblox discord server

brazen wolf
#

so less apex

waxen elk
#

It's not because apexes are fun

warm ridge
#

i'm out

barren zephyr
#

people would still play apex

brazen wolf
#

rgiht now all ppl playing dillo playing other dino

waxen elk
#

It's because THEY ARE TOO EASY TO GROW

barren zephyr
#

what

brazen wolf
#

ambe apex

barren zephyr
#

no one plays dilo

#

anyway

viral creek
#

Dilo is sad what

#

I rarely see dilos

brazen wolf
#

so ppl playing dillo play apex

barren zephyr
#

NO

brazen wolf
#

dillo is no good

waxen elk
#

fuck out

barren zephyr
#

thats not

#

what

brazen wolf
#

with bright night

#

so make other dino attractive to play

barren zephyr
#

thats not dilos only problem first of all

waxen elk
#

This convo makes no sense on a logical scale

viral creek
#

Why are we talking about dilo now
