rigid tartan
#

thats what im saying...

#

u dont need to nerf rex speed

shut gale
#

but yeah slayer the rex would still need a good ambush

rigid tartan
#

nerf gamma boost

burnt lodge
#

It's two entirely different things

rigid tartan
#

how so, they affect each other

#

speed of a dinosaur vs distance you can see it away from you.

#

...

shut gale
#

hey when they make it all dark again

#

rex gets even stronger 8)

burnt lodge
#

^^^

shut gale
#

woooo...

#

dies inside dondiSucc

rigid tartan
#

thats the way it is lol even more incentive to be grouped up

shut gale
#

5 diablos all grouped. rexes shows 10 meters away from them

#

woooo....

#

fun times..

rigid tartan
#

yup, rip one of them

shut gale
#

one?

rigid tartan
#

thats the way it is unfortunately. lol

shut gale
#

most of them 😂

#

if not all

rigid tartan
#

naaah only douche bags kill every1 for shits and giggles.

burnt lodge
#

And there's a lot of those here

shut gale
#

ah... sure...

#

apexes players are all good people

rigid tartan
#

there are indeed, but if theres no challenge in them fighting back whats the point, u only need 1

#

^ no theyr mostly kids with a power complex

shut gale
#

well most people don't see it like that slayer

rigid tartan
#

but its their right 😛

shut gale
#

that would 80% of the time mean rip 5 diablos

rigid tartan
#

yeah i know

#

when its all dark tho they have as much chance coming across you, as you do them. if theyr loud they deserve to die

shut gale
#

i mean you can choose not to be so loud and get in ambush as rex

burnt lodge
#

Hopefully... it won't be that way... game gets darker... less exploits then rex has its speed and anguish adjusted

shut gale
#

you can't choose that as a diablo..

rigid tartan
#

no i mean the diablos being loud

#

rex speed is fine... theres like a 20meter safe zone u have away from a rex and he hasnt got the stam to keep up for longer chases

#

just stay away. if u get ambushed in the night well thats just the way it goes boys lol

#

im primarily a herbie player and i see thats how it should be x]

shut gale
#

eh just think it would make the game a bit more fair and fun for everyone...

#

rexes would get to be stronger ( vs gigas ) and gigas faster again

burnt lodge
#

"Just how it is" yet there's no counter play

shut gale
#

^

rigid tartan
#

why should there be counter play as a diablo vs a rex

#

are u mental

#

the counter play is dont be loud

#

lol

shut gale
#

cause peopel don't like playing something that is just dead meat..

#

its a game...

#

its supose to be fun...

#

for everyone not only "meta" dinos

rigid tartan
#

rofl

#

if u dont want to be eaten by a rex.

#

play a rex.

burnt lodge
#

Interesting...I bring up counter play and get insulted 🤔

shut gale
#

....

rigid tartan
#

if not... dont complain if u run INTO a rex

burnt lodge
#

Ew no

shut gale
#

^

rigid tartan
#

then stop complaining about dieing to a rex?

shut gale
#

ah? i haven't

rigid tartan
#

if a deer runs into a lion, what counter play has it got =/

#

lol

shut gale
#

deers can outspeed them, diablos can't 🤷

burnt lodge
#

Didn't know I was complaining about dying to a rex when all I said was counter play

shut gale
#

yeah i think i'm gonna stop arguing xD

burnt lodge
#

Same

rigid tartan
#

i know but dont you see how irrelivent the idea of "counterplay" is to such vastly different dino's

#

ones a small herbie, ones a large carniv

#

its like top trumps

#

does diablo have decent-ish damage against med-tier carnivs?

#

like could a diablo 1v1 a carnataur or allo?

shut gale
#

yes easily

rigid tartan
#

right... so theyr fine then i dont see the objection

#

why would a diablo have any counter play against an apex carniv when it, in itself is a med tier herbie

#

a strong one at that

shut gale
#

play diablo... if you don't mind the get run down by gigas / rexes on sight gameplay... i fear you might've had some bad relationships...

lilac swallow
#

@rigid tartan dryo is even a low tier and has a counter play against apex

shut gale
#

^

rigid tartan
#

yeah but can a dryo kill allo's or carnataur?

#

they trade damage, for speed.

#

do u see the top trump mechanics?

shut gale
#

no but it has a counter play for it

#

that's all it needs

rigid tartan
#

lol only because it has no damage for its own tier range

lilac swallow
#

No but It can hide or out turn the carno,

shut gale
#

counter play

lilac swallow
#

Dryo Will most likely die but has some methods to try to not die

rigid tartan
#

ofcourse, because its trade all of its OFFENSIVE options for DEFENSIVE options

#

a diablo has not..

#

so u cant complain

#

if the herbie specialises in being good at damage, it just goes without saying if you run into something with MORE damage, your time is up

lilac swallow
#

No matchup should be a 0-100 survival rate

rigid tartan
#

what? lol

#

ofcourse there are some of those match ups. you're dealing with dinosaur's that were nowhere near each other in the evolutionary chain mashed together into a map. OFCOURSE theres going to be some that completely out play others

lilac swallow
#

Even if you have a really bad matchup you should be able to TRY to survive, just try, not saying you need to survive a bad matchup

rigid tartan
#

its like a tortois running into a tiger, it has 0 chance

#

i disagree leg. not every single dinosaur should have a survival chance. they need to be balanced and unfortunately for diablo its balance was giving it some damage. if it runs into something with more damage/hp its screwed

lilac swallow
#

But some matchup are just, "fine i will just sit and wait to get killed"

rigid tartan
#

yes... which shouldn't be a problem

#

dont play slow moving damage dealers if you have a problem with running into bigger dino's occasionally =/

#

every dino has something theyr good against, and something theyr bad against. and that my friend is fair

lilac swallow
#

@rigid tartan exactly what i said but being nada against isnt being literally a walking food, a para has a really bad matchup against allos but at least can try to run away

rigid tartan
#

difference is theyr both med tier- dinosaurs

#

to be fair tho para is in need of some love

#

so its a bad example of you

#

lol

#

i didnt say a diablo cant try to run from a rex XD

#

just saying its gonna RIP

lilac swallow
#

That just what im saying a diablo will most likely be dead but It can try to run

rigid tartan
#

it already can "try"

#

lol

spiral pond
#

It can try to juke Rex

#

Dibble still needs a bit of speed buff

#

To at least outrun gigas

#

Since you can’t avoid gigas with their amazing turning radius

#

In forests

#

Dibbles only counter to apexes is to try to run, run out of stamina, get bit 2 times and die

#

Or log off

clear turret
#

Slayer are you actually trying to argue that "lay down and die" is healthy balancing?

spiral pond
#

Pretty much

clear turret
#

When it comes to balance, your realism takes a backseat to good gameplay. No and, ifs, or buts.

rigid tartan
#

yes im trying to argue that a med dino like a diablo, if unfortunate to run into a t-rex and be close enuff that the rex can catch it, has simply nothing to do but die. thats literally the fundamentals of balancing big dino's vs smaller

#

its not about realism, its about the fact that not ALL the dino's can be good against ALL the other dino's @clear turret too many "BUT MUH FAV DINO" fan boys complaining tbh

spiral pond
#

Huh ?

rigid tartan
#

am i saying ALL med tier dino's cant avoid a rex? NO but that specific one? yup. unlucky

spiral pond
#

Eh only sucho and dibble get run down by apexes

leaden night
#

Only Dibble*

#

Sucho can run from Giga and has enough stamina where it isn't an easy follow

rigid tartan
#

i put it to any rex to chase down a dibble that is more than 30meters away. there stam just isnt up to it, and if you're closer than that to a rex. well you've got unlucky my dude

leaden night
#

Rex is less of an issue to Dibbles

#

You can juke them in the treeline

rigid tartan
#

thats what im trying to tell these people ditto

#

they think dibble should have a counter to rex

leaden night
#

Gigas are the issue

rigid tartan
#

kills me.

#

yes but giga is designed to chase down meds... so u cant complain about a giga either 😛

leaden night
#

There's basically no way to escape a Giga that wants you

#

But you can

rigid tartan
#

"stop being good at that thing you're meant to do" =/

leaden night
#

Dibble's speed along with its stamina makes it easy as fuck for Giga to follow it

#

It runs for about 30 seconds more than Giga

#

All while leaving a long yellow brick road with the amount of footsteps

#

Dibble's trot is also extremely slow making it stupidly easy for Giga to close the near non-existent distance you got from it

normal fern
#

@thorny lynx you mean that bitespeed that's gets out dps by sucho accounting for weight?
Or how cerato bites just as quickly, or giga?

violet magnet
#

@rigid tartan then people would just AFK in the hidey holes

#

or there'd be the issue with dryo burrows we have now where preds camp out around the holes and wait for dryos to come out

rigid tartan
#

if they chose to thats well within their rights, what i mean is

#

people complain that X dino cant out run X dino so its unfair...

#

if there was certain spots X dino could fit through but X dino couldn't

#

no1 needs to be nerfed

#

just an example. but i think terrain affects the dino balance hugely

#

like jumping dino's not enough opportunities on current map to take advantage of jumping to avoid death

#

ledges etc

violet magnet
#

utahs have Raptor Rock that they can get up onto, and we all see how that's turned out

#

they never fucking leave

leaden night
#

I mean it is the only spot as well

rigid tartan
#

yeah im not saying give them one spot to be

#

make it more and more normal to see these certain terrain patterns when you're being chased

leaden night
#

Along with beint completely safe because the only things that can kill them are random adult Gigas and Pachys

rigid tartan
#

memorise them. stay near or around them

leaden night
#

Pachys stay far away because there's literally no food anywhere near the area

rigid tartan
#

yeah

#

its just an idea.

barren zephyr
#

@icy ridge when it comes to combat their is more than just base damage to take into account, you also need to think about agility and speed

copper cradle
#

@regal pecan Hypno already confirmed there will be a marker above the burrow at some point

regal pecan
#

oh..lovely👌

copper cradle
#

yea indeed ^^

regal pecan
#

im trying dryo right now and i always lose track of my burrowdondiLUL

copper cradle
#

yea that is annoying :/ if i move far i always destroy mine in case i can't find my way back, but i always put mine in bushes and hope that i can find it again xD

ocean vortex
#

is it really mandatory that herbivores need herds?

#

not everyone has the time and organization to form one up from thin air

hazy sparrow
#

not really... you can go around solo, but if you come across a pack of ... something, it might not go well for you

#

depending on your dino

#

their dino, etc

#

same as any carnivore 😃

jovial arch
#

@pulsar lake 29 mph or Kmh???

pulsar lake
#

Kmh

#

Sorry

jovial arch
#

Ok

#

Was worried lol

rigid tartan
#

@ocean vortex honestly i think herbie footprints should last like 10mins or so on herbie scent, so its easy to see where other herbies have been and follow/link up with them

#

so if u choose to group u can do so with relative ease

ocean vortex
#

ik but

#

are herbivores just gonna herding creatures in the future or no?

rigid tartan
#

i mean herding is there thing i dont understand what you mean? example of a solo herbie oO?

#

ofc u can play one solo but you're only gonna benifit from a group

meager hamlet
#

I wish they would bring this to consoles

outer nebula
#

i already told you why rapgod

civic sky
#

i mean carnivores form packs, i personally don't get this.

barren zephyr
#

@copper cradle I find that a great idea too. But such a system has to be build. Bonebreak already excists. I would be fine with that to replace bonebreak in the future for herbs. But i dont want to have to wait a year or more for such a feature without giving bonebreak in the meantime.

civic sky
#

@rigid tartan Trike is a perfect solo herb arguably even diablo. As i said before though, carnivores can form packs so i don't get that sentiment.

next nexus
#

@wet canyon yes, server options have been stated to be a thing

#

so there will be no human servers

#

even no dinosaur servers if people are into that

#

It is unknown if there will be any "official" servers with these options- but there will be plenty of unofficial servers who will turn them off, guarantee it

paper oriole
#

yeah checkboxes to disable humans and mutant strained (hypo, neuro, etc) would be nice to have if they are planning on that

hot heath
#

@copper cradle I like that suggestion for herbivores but I do think the anky should still have bone break. I mean thats literally hitting a carnivore’s leg with a sledge hammer on steroids I’m sure it can break bones xD

lone crypt
#

^^

thorny lynx
#

@pulsar lake I know what you're trying to get at, but that spinosaurus model you just showed us is practically skin and bone. We want f a t, which is why a lot of people disliked your post. The juvie is cute as shit, tho. Not too big of a sail.

jovial arch
#

Also your run speed is still 29 mph

#

...

pulsar lake
#

Yes you're rigth

#

But it's for the base body, after yes he need to be more massive

thorny lynx
#

I don't want spino to be a fast boi who can chase after utahs, cuz that is what he is, right now.

#

Also, I am not for buffing Spino's bite damage. In fact, Spino's bite damage should be very low with the only purpose being to grapple onto something. Spino isn't meant to bite and bleed and tear into shit with its mouth... Its jaws were meant to snap shut very quickly and grip onto its prey, like a crocodile. I can imagine spino using its jaw to grab onto a smaller dinosaur and then working its giant meat hook claws into the prey.

pulsar lake
thorny lynx
#

Our spino is going to be a mix of terrestrial and aquatic, iirc

#

As long as he can fish, I think he will be okay.

pulsar lake
#

I know it will be a Terrestrial tank and a fisher

thorny lynx
#

Spino should not be able to chase after shit on land.

umbral prairie
#

I always thought of spino (in-game) as something too slow to actively chase after apexes but as something very hard to kill, as it is pretty heavy and sort of tanky.

thorny lynx
#

If it does, not for long.

pulsar lake
#

Spino shouldn't hunt any fast thing

#

Because he is not do for this

thorny lynx
#

Spinos weighed upwards of 14 tons. Something that heavy shouldn't be able to run on two legs.

pulsar lake
#

Yes but for the BB, he need to haven't a big mass

thorny lynx
#

Honestly, I think 10 tons would be an absolute maximum.

#

8 sounds reasonable.

#

Rex weighs 5.8 tons right now and if Spino were 10 tons, even 350 damage would destroy it, especially with its impressive bite speed

pulsar lake
#

Because with the actual spoon, rex just loose to him because the weight mass is so important than rex never break legs to spino.
I think rex should break him bones like giga and trike.

#

It's why he should have not a heavy mass but enormous HP

thorny lynx
#

Something like

#

maybe 8 tons and 14k health

umbral prairie
#

I feel like spino should have a claw attack in addition to a bite, I'd make the bite very fast but very weak, the claw attack would do significantly more damage but it would be slower.

thorny lynx
#

I feel like the bite should be used to grab onto something, then its claws do the attackig

pulsar lake
#

After I think dev will do what they want, I do a suggestion about Spinosaurus because it's my favorites dinosaur and I want than he'll be balance and accurate.

A claws attack can do more bleed too.

umbral prairie
#

maybe a pose like this could support the use of claws, also it doesn't look as front heavy as many other spinosaurus artworks

pulsar lake
#

This spino is great

#

JP colors

#

And accurate body

#

👌

#

Or PK spoon too

#

But no super crocodile scale or tiny legs

pulsar lake
#

I loved this allo model @desert prairie

#

I think we should get back the old dino except the rex

desert prairie
#

Yeah it looks great

pulsar lake
#

I've played so many times with this allo

#

😍

lone crypt
#

If anything, I’d want to see a mix between current allo and old allo, but I’d prefer current allo. Maybe a ridge of spike, but nothing else

desert prairie
#

Thats why it would be an option to pick it

#

plus the old allo moved more... like a dino

#

to an extent

#

current one feels like a robot lol

lone crypt
#

At least it moves anatomically correct and doesn’t move its knees high enough to touch another dimension when it runs

#

I strongly dislike any dinos that move like the old ones

desert prairie
#

true the old allo's animation was weird

lone crypt
#

Like Herrera, it’s fun but those legs are yuck

desert prairie
#

Just a suggestion, don't see much harm in adding it but im not a game dev so whatever

arctic shell
#

I can imagine all those older dinosaurs are gonna get an overhaul on the animations at some point. Acro and Cerato used to use the same rigs, but now Cerato has his own animations when I remember the story being Acro was getting new animations, and Cerato was keeping Acros because it "fit better".

lone crypt
#

New cera animations are some of the cleanest in the game except for the bite, which is under-exaggerated

native nebula
#

you want to know where your bite will hit. having a gigantic sweeping arc which takes multiple seconds to complete does not help that.

subtle wind
#

quad spino

blazing charm
#

Putting a thumbs up on your own suggestion

barren zephyr
#

we do not need herbis to have bb for last time herbis had bb it was a disasterdondiLUL

#

mad cows

clever hinge
#

@desert prairie do u mean the allo before the current one or the real old allo, because the real old allo was the best allo model over ever seen, I’m assuming u don’t know what it is as you referred to the middle one as the old allo, so I’ll post a link to an old vid with it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=t2h2SN1Wws8

One I posted was the one I was talking about

hazy sparrow
#

@echo zinc I knew a deaf person who played Arma, he had his speakers wired to lights... I don't know if this will help you, but hopefully you can work around!

echo zinc
#

@hazy sparrow I'm not sure how that works.

hazy sparrow
#

I don't know either, but he used left and right lights for where sound would come from... I don't know his setup at all. I never met him in person.

echo zinc
#

Interesting...

hazy sparrow
#

Maybe an electrician would be able to wire speaker to something similar. It would be custom work though.

echo zinc
#

I wouldn't do it now, as I live in a lease right now, so I will find something when I actually settle down 😃

ocean vortex
#

@thorny lynx Cerato is fast enough. Most carnivores never reach 40kmph

#

However I can see dilo needing it

thorny lynx
#

Uh

#

Cerato is 36.5

ocean vortex
#

Standard running speed right?

thorny lynx
#

yes

ocean vortex
#

Ye

thorny lynx
#

Dilo is 38.8

ocean vortex
#

I know that

thorny lynx
#

Utah is 43.6 and it has a 1.3x ambush modifier

#

How is that fair

ocean vortex
#

Cerato is gifted with a brawly turn radius

#

Dilo doesnt really have this

shut gale
#

@thorny lynx Utahs strenght is in its agility. that's why its ambush is better

thorny lynx
#

Cerato can't escape allo ambush or rex ambush

#

it's bs

ocean vortex
#

Also I do not want to see a giant 2-ton cerato running at utah speed

#

its your fault you didnt see them sneaking onto you

shut gale
#

not escaping the allos ambush is fine imo... the rex... eh 🤷

ocean vortex
#

Rex can only sprint for 30 seconds before needing to rest so...

#

It already has a really tough time going up to prey

thorny lynx
#

So you want an almost 3 ton allo sprinting at almost 44 kilometers an hour, @ocean vortex ? K.

#

Giving cerato a 1.2x ambush makes it go at a speed of 43.9344. Barely faster than a utah and a tad faster than allo's ambush. Not to mention, it doesn't have a 12 second ambush like allo does.

#

And slower than dilo's ambush

#

I really do not see the problem.

ocean vortex
#

I have a feeling that Cerato's ambush speed is because its normal sprint speed is faster than average to others...

#

Then again that may not be the case

thorny lynx
#

No, it's because it and dilo had their ambush since before they've been put in survival

#

They both need at least 1.2x

ocean vortex
#

Seems legit

#

I'd make Dilo's stamina a bit higher tho

thorny lynx
#

I could ask for 1.25x but that may be pushing it

polar juniper
#

Even Juvie Cerato ambush is faster than adult

thorny lynx
#

Yeah, give dilo the same stam time as juvie

#

IT IS

ocean vortex
#

Ye

thorny lynx
#

OMG Juvie cerato ambush is so good ❤

polar juniper
#

Yes

ocean vortex
#

Stay juvie 1.0

#

Heee

polar juniper
#

It’s what adult cerato should have

thorny lynx
#

I believe its ambush is probably 1.2 or 1.25

polar juniper
#

More like 1.4

thorny lynx
#

Anything above 1.25 would be excessive

#

Like, I'm not asking for it to chase gallis

#

But a dryo would be nice

#

Ambush can't catch dryo sniff

polar juniper
#

It barely edges out pachy speed too

#

Like

#

Barely

thorny lynx
#

1.25x would put it at 45.765km/h

#

Total 'fuck you' to allo

#

As it should.

polar juniper
#

Agreed

thorny lynx
#

Putting dilo at that modifier would give it 48.6km/h. Galli speed, but still faster than adult rex ambush lol

polar juniper
#

I don’t know what Cerato needs more though

thorny lynx
#

Can't just

polar juniper
#

Bleed resist or ambush buff

thorny lynx
#

all carnivores have a flat 10 mile an hour ambush boost

polar juniper
#

Cause its’ bleed reisst is also garbo

thorny lynx
#

That seems to be what's happening

polar juniper
#

Like real bad

thorny lynx
#

Like, I wouldn't mind it taking away half its health at 3 bleed

#

Right now, it can live on only 20% on 3 bleed

ocean vortex
#

I miss old cerato

thorny lynx
#

me too, tbh

polar juniper
#

It was okay

#

But was apex kibble

thorny lynx
#

If cerato had better bleed resist and a better ambush, it would be so nice.

#

I would play it more often

polar juniper
#

Cerato would be in a perfect spot balance wise^

#

Better bleed resist and its old ambush speed

thorny lynx
#

I mean, when I first ambushed with Cerato, I was like... 'what the fuck is this'

polar juniper
#

Its’ ambush speed fresh rework was perfect

#

Then it got its actual run speed and had the ambush changed

#

To this sad 1.1x multiplier

thorny lynx
#

No ambush should be 1.1x

#

In fact, juvenile ambushes should be worse than adult ambushes

lone crypt
#

@slate pecan hide in bushes, out of sight and away from crowded areas when logging off will fix your problem

slate pecan
#

I pretty much already do that, being a predominately solo player. I myself don't think I exactly have a problem with it, but i was just curious on opinions for the topic and wanted to ask about it. But now that i think about it, people just really need to secure a kill quicker if people are just logging out. :T

shut gale
#

@brazen wolf sub giga needs a lot of changes imo. its boring ashell to play.

#

compared to the sub rex for example*

brazen wolf
#

yes@shut gale

#

Sub giga is food for midtire dino and apx

#

it's so slow

#

It can only kill juvies

#

Sub giga life is just hiding

shut gale
#

pretty much

thorny lynx
#

Juv giga is so thicc

#

I think it fills adult rex up 50%

pseudo falcon
#

I'm so sad that Galli's heal is so low

#

I hate it 😭

#

I get bitten once and I have to start back from square one

#

Even a Utah puts you on second screen, third if you let yourself bleed to long

#

Or rather pretty much always 3rd 😠

clever leaf
#

tbf since galli has so much speed and maneuverability

#

you kinda deserve it if you get caught

#

most gallis die cuz of cockiness

lone crypt
#

^^^^

misty island
#

Yes galli dying is very satisfying since most of them are very annoying, had a galli tailing me as a Rex for a good thirty minutes just 1calling every three seconds

barren zephyr
#

gallis are those types of players that think they can escape unharmed if they kick a utah/everything else

leaden night
#

Because they are capable of doing so

barren zephyr
#

@weary plover as neither shant nore anky are in survival they are currently deemed irrelevant balance wise

weary plover
#

@barren zephyr I forgot to mention Trike's bone break got removed recently as well. Shant and Anky may not be in survival, but Rex being the only one with bone break and my point still stands.

#

8 tons of mass stomping on you should break bones shouldn't it

violet magnet
#

"recently" as in a year ago

#

when everything's bonebreak was removed except rex

weary plover
#

my point still stands how is that so difficult to understand

regal pecan
#

raptor rock being deleted was the best thing about this patch that arent even in the patch notes

#

hope that with this ppl will spread more around the map and not focus on only one spot

cinder zenith
#

They'll probably find a new spot

barren zephyr
#

@regal pecan They still got the spot near throne

finite perch
#

god forbid a dinos ability give them an advantage

barren zephyr
#

what?

#

the problem wasnt it giving them an advantage

#

the problem was it made them 100% invunerable for a time

#

to anything but utahs

viral creek
#

Utah rock was cancer.

Pretty much every utah camped on that rock, making them invulnerable to any danger.

The masses of utahs there attracted other carnivores that wanted to eat the utahs. People started camping said area because of the huge population.

Utah rock was a cramped mess of carnivores, it deserved to die.

#

Utard rock was cancer indeed. I'm surprised that it wasn't taken down sooner tbh.

#

survival game

#

unreachable prey item

hazy sparrow
#

There are other rocks unreachable by any other dino, especially now with dryo and gali jumps being less vertical

#

"Utah" Rock was just the biggest and most centralized.

#

Get out and explore 😉

#

@woven marsh Net code needs optimizing for such large player pool

woven marsh
#

Ye, but until they have the tech for that it would have actually been better to make the playable area on V3 smaller not bigger. Like a wall that blocks off an area of the map but that can be disabled on custom servers with higher counts.

frozen latch
#

Honestly Idk why everyone was so salty about utah rock, utahs were killed/died there ALL THE TIME. You just had to be smart about hunting them since they have to get down to eat/drink

Not gonna miss the cancer it attracted though jfc

jagged badge
#

I hardly see anyone on Utah rock only cause I don’t usually play packed servers

pulsar lake
#

You can survive at rex attack

#

But for me it's logic than 1 or 2 allo can't beat him

#

Or sucho

#

But giga can

lone crypt
#

Before making a suggestion, can y’all try playing survival? You’re all basing balance based on deathmatch and it actual survival, and nobody takes into account how combat plays out in a map that isn’t the test level. A rex is strong as hell in test level, because it knows a fight is coming, and it doesn’t go under the same conditions it would in survival.

#

stop making balance suggestions purely on how it functions outside of survival

hazy sparrow
#

Too many burrows around might cause performance issues

carmine echo
#

@hardy kernel utah rock is compleatly removed

hardy kernel
#

That really sucks.

#

its just flatland now?

carmine echo
#

nah a small hill with trees

nocturne blaze
#

It means utahs can't just take up half the server population sitting on a rock, completely invincible to everything except other utahs

hardy kernel
#

I mean i guess thats better than nothing

#

Which is why you make it possible for other carnivores to climb up

south flower
#

Maybe the burrows can despawn after a certain amount of time so as long as nobody is occupying it?

barren zephyr
#

do burrows despawn after killing its owner

south flower
#

I believe so

barren zephyr
#

or as a juvie utah can i kill the owner and then stay in the burrow

south flower
#

I don't believe you can

sweet narwhal
#

Someone had a glitch where they killed the burrow owner and it killed the Utah too because they were both in the burrow

south flower
#

that's why I made the suggestion, because as far as I am aware, the burrow despawns when the owner dies

nocturne blaze
#

we already had a climbable rock, do you not remember herbi rock ??

#

it was even worse

topaz sierra
#

Utah rock may be gone, but they will definitely find another place to afk again, if they already havent found one

umbral prairie
#

yeah they have

carmine echo
#

ye there are plenty more rocks

topaz sierra
#

Its gonna be the same as before

carmine echo
#

where @umbral prairie ?

topaz sierra
#

They are still gonna get camped and cry about it

south flower
#

Maybe the burrow can be added to the scent system, such as a cloud of some sort to show the burrow is or has been occupied?

umbral prairie
#

I played utah on EU 2 and there was like a 20 player group and 10 of them were heading somewhere utah rock like

#

I died on the way

hardy kernel
#

Well to be consistent you would also need to remove radio tower

umbral prairie
#

but I'm not really a fan of this afk sitting on a rock anyway

carmine echo
#

anyone can get up on radio though

nocturne blaze
#

radio tower has stairs

south flower
#

Is this on the thenyaw or v3 map?

nocturne blaze
#

you can get up it as anything

topaz sierra
#

Its stupid, afking on a rock, you take a server slot for no reason, plus, it shows that you are a coward

hardy kernel
#

Never seen anything inside radio tower that wasnt a raptor or herra

carmine echo
#

i dont even get why you want to play like that

ruby temple
#

hey haki_user87 just posted some interesting suggestions anyone have a take on it

carmine echo
#

just keeping your character alive? fun

umbral prairie
#

yeah it's very boring but for some reason everyone in this utah group I was in was very excited about the fact one of them found another camping spot

hardy kernel
#

It was nice being able to grow a raptor, which normally gets two shot by anything anyways

topaz sierra
#

They claimed that the previous utah rock was the only place they could survive and raise their babies. Like, really?

#

Also, how do dilos manage to survive out there, yet utahs claim that they cannot? Utahs have actually more speed, and a jump too

umbral prairie
#

I mean it's very easy to grow up there, but it's not hard to grow a utah anyway, even if you get nested in some random bush

topaz sierra
#

Yes exactly

hardy kernel
#

Dilos could see for miles in the dark

topaz sierra
#

How do other dinos survive?

nocturne blaze
#

I played as a utah last week and never once set foot on that fucking rock, and I survived perfectly fine

carmine echo
#

in day they are weak af though

umbral prairie
#

nothing will really catch a utah if it isn't afk, so most people will just get annoyed by them and move on

#

nobody would try to eat utah hatchlings

nocturne blaze
#

How do they survive in the day though? they didn't have a magic rock to sit on where they were invincible ?

topaz sierra
#

Utahs dont need stupid rocks to survive, in my view they have the best survival tools in their possesion

nocturne blaze
#

agreed

#

it's stupid easy to grow a utah, you're almost invisible as a juvie

hardy kernel
#

idk me and friend just avoided literally any interaction with anyone

topaz sierra
#

And then at adult stage, you pretty much outrun everything

umbral prairie
#

and the only thing that is faster than you turns like a bus

barren zephyr
#

also

#

before night changes

#

even if dilo had best nv

#

you could still see fine

#

ezpz

topaz sierra
#

Yes, you can out-turn carnos easily, and even maybe 1v1 one if you manage to get behind it

umbral prairie
#

it would be nice if cloudy nights were be as black as thenyaw nights used to be, and clear nights were like they are now

barren zephyr
#

yea

topaz sierra
#

I understand that reverting night time to pitch black as it used to be might not be very appealing, but they should at least make half the night extremely dark, so that you have to use your night vision for navigation

glass blaze
#

I've said it before and I'll say it again: they just need to bring back the Region 2 shadows and night time will be perfect.

regal pecan
#

perfect for Dilophosauros..the rest need to hide cause their nightvision is trash😂

carmine echo
#

ye mby you could give some dinos a little bit better nightvision

hazy sparrow
#

Some dinos do have better NV, raptor for example has a pretty big radius, somewhere near 30-40m, no where near dilo of course, but that's not what raptors about

#

Sucho has about 15m of NV, etc

blazing charm
#

Dinosaurs are supposed to have varied night vision.

clever leaf
#

I have said this many times, but I will say it again because it's relevant here.

#

We just need varied night vision within the dinosaurs, that way night can afford to be pitch black again to have Dilos get back to their prime.

umbral prairie
#

@left storm I'd imagine pachys having a bb chance once the combat rework is done, but I think that pachy doesn't really need it atm, plus if it had it and broke the leg of something it could just ass ride it to death as things with a broken leg can't alt turn (same problem with rex atm)

#

It's just too easy to break a leg at the moment because you can break a leg by hitting the tail

true furnace
#

Well pachy having bone break should only work on dinos slightly larger or smaller than it

#

We can't have pachys running around breaking rex legs cause it wouldn't make much sense

#

It should be a charge attack too

umbral prairie
#

also I hope that once locational damage is in you actually have to hit the leg to break it instead of hitting the tail

true furnace
#

Probs but theyll have to increase the chance if you need to hit a right mark to get it

umbral prairie
#

yeah of course, a pachy ramming a utah leg should break it

compact matrix
#

Is Tyrannosaurus Rex overpowered with this patch relative to giga and relative to trike

umbral prairie
#

It is way too easy to kill people with bb atm

#

But I think rex should keep it's speed and damage, just the bb needs to be reworked after the code rework

#

also with locational damage you will hopefully not be able to ass ride sth

lilac swallow
#

@vernal moon i get your idea but if i actually killed the dino who made me bleed and i have to logout what do i do? Waiting 20 min because my dino is bleeding?

umbral prairie
#

this would also mean that like a juvie dilo can keep a rex from logging out

#

by continuously hitting it while it stands still to log

vernal moon
#

Idk man, combat logging is so broken though

umbral prairie
#

yeah combat logging is stupid, but I mean you have to hold still for a full minute to log out, I feel like if you can't kill something in a minute you shouldn't attempt to do so.

lilac swallow
#

@vernal moon as many people say, if you cant manage to kill a dino in 60 sec of defenseless biting, you shouldnt have tried it

umbral prairie
#

Only way to combat log is if others protect you until you're logged out

#

but I mean they could also just protect you until you're healed and the attacker would only have wasted time

vernal moon
#

Its mroe that a Dilo bites and watches shit bleed out ya know? So The sub rex bit me, so I laid down to get the bleed off expecting her to bleeding out shes logging out

#

Its just a suggestion.. I'm sure people have suggested it before so it will probably be overlooked

true furnace
#

Look if you lost the dino long enough to let it combat log thats your own fualt tbh. You can sniff out the blood and foot prints and if it's out running you itll probs escape anyways. If anything they should make the sniff range longer to hell tracking

vernal moon
#

but its extremely frustrating trying to bleed out a larger predator and they just poof

lilac swallow
#

As i said if it takes you a minute to kill something that doesnt fight back dont try it

true furnace
#

Then bite it

#

If it's sitting bite it

vernal moon
#

I was bleeding as well though

#

and I kept my eyes on her the whole time

true furnace
#

So? What's the issue then you got hit and they got hit you went to heal so fight over

vernal moon
#

If she had tried to run i would have been there

#

but I was just letting her bleed out

#

Like I said its just a suggestion. Im sure its been said before

lilac swallow
#

If you couldnt logout during bleeding a juv utha could make a rex or giga lose an hour of their lives trying to logout

true furnace
#

Mhm

umbral prairie
#

Of course you should bleed things out as dilo, but you still have to watch it and bite it occasionally so they either start moving -->logout timer reset or they don't start moving--> keep biting

vernal moon
#

Guess ill just have to be more careful

true furnace
#

Logot timer resets if you do anything

lilac swallow
#

Bleeding isnt bittin, forgeting, remebering later

true furnace
#

Look at character sheet

#

Resets

#

Look at hunger resets

#

If they made it to the point where you couldn't logout while bleed than bleed would have to be reworked for every dino

vernal moon
#

You're prolly right. Its just frustrating I guess

true furnace
#

Yeah ik

cyan flame
#

Would perhaps be better if all things recovered bleed faster, but also took more damage, thus you'd have to reapply the bleed more often, instead of the longer "wait them out" time

true furnace
#

Then stacking bleed would have to be lowered

lilac swallow
#

@cyan flame this would mean bleeders have to take risk more often which i like

true furnace
#

You can't have something do huge amount of DOT in the middle of a fight. Most things would die that way if the bleed was changed thus making allos, carnos, and dilos a issue again.

vernal moon
#

I'd be okay with that. As long as it does the same amount of damage in a shorter time

cyan flame
#

The issue with damage over time I suppose, too short and it's not really a point, too long and it gets that weird "wait it out" while the opposition can't do much one way or the other :p

#

Also, Roz, how badly hit were you?

vernal moon
#

I got hit by a sub rex, so 3rd screen with a bleed

umbral prairie
#

I made a suggestion on bleed not being a simple DOT anymore as that can cause you to die to a single utah bite just because you are bleeding (which makes as much sense as a bleeding human dying to a cat biting his toe) a while ago

true furnace
#

It was a sub rex roz was fighting I believe

cyan flame
#

Hm

vernal moon
#

I snagged that person like 4 times or so

#

they were going down regardless

#

if they hadnt poofed

true furnace
#

Takes about 12-14 to kill a sub rex as a dilo

#

Or more

umbral prairie
#

Imo it would be cooler to have bleed be like an own stat, maybe showing in liters or in percent, and the more blood you lose the weaker you get, and once it gets below a critical level you die

true furnace
#

Probs alot more

vernal moon
#

Yeah but she was running and bleeding out pretty badly

true furnace
#

Yeah but that one bite she got ended the fight

#

The second she hit you it was a draw or a win on her side since she was being hunted

umbral prairie
#

you would still have to heal the bleed off but then you would regenerate blood, getting faster and stronger again instead of healing damage

vernal moon
#

I mean she wasnt a BIG sub rex, just a sub rex

cyan flame
#

It's sort of like how rexes do bonebreak, then run off to heal while you're broken, only to come back to fight more, allowing them to play badly and still survive if they do it right.. :p

true furnace
#

3rd screen is 1 or 2 off from death my dude

vernal moon
#

I mean for her, she was prolly at a 3 screen as well

#

she was covered with lacerations

true furnace
#

If you would've kept running you would've been dead in a few seconds

cyan flame
#

Not neccesarily, if the heal tick had come at that moment, Roz should have been perfectly fine, dilos recover bleed very well I think

true furnace
#

Maybe 2nd screen

vernal moon
#

Twas a 1.5Bleed laying down my dude

#

I could have walked that off

true furnace
#

That's laying down

#

It goes higher standing u0

vernal moon
#

3 bleed walking right?

true furnace
#

Kinda 4 or t

#

I've had 13 bleed as allo standing up and 3 sitting down

cyan flame
#

Too bad we can't see what running does to it.. :p

vernal moon
#

rexes have a low bleed though so i dont think it was that bad

cyan flame
#

They should have kept the 10% no matter if you're resting or not, that would have made this situation much more interesting :p

true furnace
#

3rd screen with bleed is a instant sit down or die

#

And if it was a fresh juvi sub it wouldn't have put you on 3rd screen in one hit

#

Probs slightly larger or mid tier sub

barren zephyr
#

@untold sail Everyone should be able to play what they want. Limiting the way you suggested would be very bad to keep servers full. What the game needs in more balancing in favor of herbivores so more people want to play them.

coarse thicket
#

How about certain servers like realism servers can enforce limits if they want without affecting the main official servers or game.

untold sail
#

@barren zephyr Was a suggestion, hence why i typed it 😄 Pretty boring just trying to get by as a herbi and just 5 Carnivores (Trexs) come along and kill you when they are adults and you just a Juve 😃

barren zephyr
#

I feel your pain cuz Im a herb player haha

untold sail
#

Its just annoying when people just wonna go out and kill shit and not actually survive :/

barren zephyr
#

It would be fine if herbis were capable of putting up a fight

#

Herbs of the same tier as carnis cant duel them. Which is weird imo

untold sail
#

Yeah balancing is a must and i see why people would dislike Herbs as even though foliage is all around you can only eat a certain bush 😛

barren zephyr
#

The amount of times I starved with 10000 bushes around me but not a berry bush :')

jolly willow
#

limiting what u can play isnt the right way to go imo

#

people would just wait for spots to open in big groups, and its just not fun

#

unfortunately

#

affinity will likely help this situation out

umbral prairie
#

also maybe locational damage and collision will maybe require a little more skill from the carnis, also ass riding and running through others will hopefully not be possible at some point

glass blaze
#

@untold sail The only thing this would accomplish is allow griefers to monopolize carnivore classes and prevent people from playing the dinosaurs they want.

pearl snow
#

lmao people being salty because Raptor Rock was unfair and now they deleted it, DELETE GIGA THEY UNFAIR XDDD ;_;

normal fern
#

@calm lily what's the point of Acro in survival? We have giga

calm lily
#

Acro will basically be a faster, weaker, and probably a better version than giga because it will actually have a chance to escape rex

#

Not saying giga cant escape rex, but Acro will have a better chance to get away

normal fern
#

That doesn't make it unique

viral creek
#

We already have 2 very large predators ingame and a 3rd coming. Balancing acro sounds like a nightmare

normal fern
#

Acro is literally a smaller giga.
Asking for Acro is like asking for tarbo, bary or Alberto despite the fact that we already have T. rex, sucho/cerato and sub rex filling those niches respectively

viral creek
#

Balancing giga is hard enough as it is

normal fern
#

^

#

As it stands you really haven't given any valid justification for Acro

calm lily
#

Gulpy whats the 3rd coming?

civic sky
#

Spino

normal fern
#

Spino

civic sky
#

Granted, personally, I’d be fine without spino.

#

I personally think it’s only coming in since it has strains.

#

Deino and sucho pretty much take the niches spino would likely thrive in in terms of uniqueness.

barren zephyr
#

how so?

topaz light
#

hey guys

umbral prairie
#

I imagine spino as something too slow to actively chase after the other apexes but as something extremely hard to kill because of high mass and claw attacks, with the option to fish, but not as focused on fishing as sucho

topaz light
#

how to contact to make an masse to get unban and say sry

pseudo falcon
#

At least with spino we'd have a new thing to resent

umbral prairie
#

woluex did you get banned on official servers?

topaz light
#

I get banned cause my name was an other Isle servername and someone says chance youre name but i was on groupchat so i dont see and then i got banned :c

normal fern
#

I resent that we want something to resent

pseudo falcon
#

Lol

#

Diversity in resentment is better than not

barren zephyr
#

i don't think that just because spino and sucho are both semi-aquatic that they will have identical niches

normal fern
#

I want peace, love and all that hippy crap

pseudo falcon
#

Lol

umbral prairie
#

I think spino will be less focused on fishing

pseudo falcon
#

I want blood! War! Camara!

barren zephyr
#

hello mr.shant...

hasty parcel
#

Spino is said to be more of a land predator

pseudo falcon
#

Shant dondiSmug

hasty parcel
#

but still have access to fishing

barren zephyr
#

i have not forgot your heresy

pseudo falcon
#

S H A N T for survival!

#

Shant > Spino

barren zephyr
pseudo falcon
umbral prairie
#

I really hope that the updated spino will have a pose like this to support claw attacks and make it look less front heavy

normal fern
#

Shant needs to be castrated then fed its own special bits, then he needs to watch his family slaughtered and skinned like animals.
Then shant must wear those skins around being sewn to his hide

#

That's what shant needs

blazing charm
#

@calm lily Acro needs more than just a new model and new stats. It needs some sort of playstyle and mechanics.

#

Also I love it when people never give feedback on my docs and just leave a frowning emote

normal fern
#

To be fair your bary doc seems like something very similar to cerato just with the ability to dive

#

I feel like it doesn't make bary unique enough on its own

blazing charm
#

Alright, that's fine. I can work on adding more stuff

normal fern
#

Bary isn't really necessary as it doesn't really give anything new and it doesn't even look too different to sucho

#

I don't want to come off harsh but that's my honest opinion

blazing charm
#

No no, that's fine.

#

I WANT people to be honest

#

I want to imrpove the concept until it's perfect.

#

That, or I'm told no.

normal fern
#

What I'm trying to get at is if the concept is even worth it in the first place.
Cerato being a bulky little pugilistic carn already seems fairly similar to a jaguar.

Once bodies float and corpse dragging is a thing it's not inconceivable to think that cerato, or any carnivore could ambush anything wading in the shallows from the treeline

#

I feel like bary is one of those animals that if it was added would just be too forced

blazing charm
#

I personally think it has potential, if I thought otherwise I wouldn't keep revising it. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

I'll probably revise the Bary doc again once Spino's revealed or more information on fishing is revealed. I was originally going to hold off on this one until then but I decided to post it here now so I could get some more feedback.

normal fern
#

I think bary is one of those things were you just have to wait until the game is close to completion before tying to add Alberto and bary into survival.

Maybe they could work, but we should really wait until things after dinosaurs like mercy and strains are added in seeing as most of the dino vs dinos niches are taken

blazing charm
#

Oh I'm not saying it has to be added soon.

topaz light
#

cüüc

blazing charm
#

I just disagree with people they can never work.

glass blaze
#

@calm lily I don't see what Acro would add as a playable character. I say keep the current model and make it a hostile AI like the velociraptor. Maybe make it a rare spawn since it's close to apex levels of power.

blazing charm
#

If all herbivores could group together again we would just get giant death herds.

jovial skiff
#

I could just imagine gallis scouting for bigger herbs

blazing charm
#

Also dear god no to random strain mutations.

ionic comet
#

Preds already do that with utahs, and just because herbs can communicate with different species doesn't instantly mean "giant death herds"

jovial skiff
#

nah but it'll mean more of them

shut gale
#

tbh i like that trikes can't understand diablos.
its makes it so the diablo is the weird lonely guy in a group for example. giving him alot of joy if another joins. x)

#

just an example

ionic comet
#

Herds should be encouraged considering how stagnant and boring herb gameplay is without them

jovial skiff
#

Dondi himself said I think that Herb being a enjoyable experience was a mistake

thorny lynx
#

I really think juvie rex should get a walk and trot turn radius buff... Check bug discussion. It's evident juvie rex's turn speed is too slow for its animation

desert prairie
#

Heres a thought

#

apexes being hard till adult

#

wild

outer nebula
#

Well its hard now since they have faster hunger drain

desert prairie
#

About time

#

should start seeing the apex spam go down

outer nebula
#

Only juvies and subs tho adult have the same

desert prairie
#

still

#

more of a chance of dying from hunger at sub

umbral prairie
#

I really hope there will be other things that will make apex gameplay challenging as it isn't really harder to survive with faster hunger drain atm, it's just more annoying

wheat hemlock
#

@lone hatch That natural bridge would be amazing, or like a shallow'er area, great shortcut for herds, but a great hunting spot for Deinosuchus once it's added

desert prairie
#

@umbral prairie Until they add some type of carnivore AI doubt that will happen

lone hatch
#

I'm just lazy and after spawn it's annoying xD @wheat hemlock

outer nebula
#

@lone hatch i dont think that be a good idea the point of that being an open area is because there is a docking station in the bay so a natural land bridge would be horrible

umbral prairie
#

maybe if they add bigger herbi AI aswell, at least if the herbi AI doesn't spawn near apexes but randomly. That way apexes are encouraged to wander around the map to find AI herds or player herds and can't just camp out in a bush. Of course there would still have to be some small AI to delay starvation, but apexes should not be able to live off of small AI for long periods of time (at least not adults)

desert prairie
#

Well if they add bigger herbi AI like brachi I doubt a juvi or sub will go after it

outer nebula
#

Maybe acro can kill subs

umbral prairie
#

yeah I imagined sauropods like brachi for gigas and hadrosaurs like cory for rexes, of course gigas might also be able to hunt corys

lone hatch
#

@outer nebula maybe you right but they must do something with that

umbral prairie
#

I'd find it really cool to travel around following an AI herd, killing one of them from time to time, follow the herd again and so on

#

instead of sitting around waiting for something to spawn close to you

outer nebula
#

maybe once aquatics are in they can add a coral reef

lone hatch
#

and about ai, they should make groups of gallis

desert prairie
#

Lets be real

#

If AI is taking up server resources

#

they wont do that

@maiden forum Such teleportation indeed exists, it's called nesting. Like, that's literally what nesting was put in the game to do.

from my understanding it doesnt work in sandbox because you dont grow. I've been told you stay as a baby

You're not really intended to play the game in sandbox. It's just there for people to fool around in. =/

dull jungle
#

So ik that allo got a speed buff but it still feels underpowered and can you please make it so a crash turn is basically a alt turn

jolly willow
#

acro cannot be functional in survival as a playable unless they really want to do that and somehow make him unique and set apart from giga

#

which would be difficult.

#

as of now acro will be AI, giga has already taken his spot as big bad bleeder, and considering we just got done with balancing giga

#

we dont need another big bad bleeder thats hard to balance..

hollow sorrel
#

I don't know about teleporting to a group member. I mean, if your herd separates you definitely should not be able to simply instant transmission to someone, even if there's a 20 second timer.

#

But I do feel like being able to spawn in as a herd/pack could work, possibly.

The juvy giga is still slow as fuck

probably very damn hard to get food as a fresh juvie x)

Yeah it is not to mention now u starve faster

While challenging I get it, they still haven't balanced the juvy giga

spiral pond
#

@barren zephyr you do realize that allo has the same speed as para right ?

#

also it can catch utahs with its ambush now

#

so yea i woudnt buff it anymore

#

it already almost outruns cera

#

also the entire point of it was to outrun rex with normal sprint

#

not catch whatever the fuck it wants for lunch

#

also if he was to run 35 km when adult, his ambush would be 45,5 which is even faster then a GALLI

#

and para, cera and dilo would need a speed buff in return

@clever hinge not even trikes can counter them anymore, Rex can face tank a trike and a giga can wreck 2 trikes easily

Ofc giga and rex fanboys disagree

hasty parcel
#

"disagree"

#

Your suggestion ain't very good anyways

#

They didn't even buff either

#

They nerfed their hunger recently

#

and how is it unrealistic or doesn't make sense that they're as strong as those mid-tiers?

#

Carno isn't even meant to take them on, it's a small game hunter

valid flower
#

A fully grown allo cant take on a sub rex or giga

#

ur telling me that makes sense?

hasty parcel
#

Yes it does

valid flower
#

your obviously a rex player

#

mate no it doesnt

hasty parcel
#

I'm far from a rex player

#

I've played rex once

#

They're sub-adults, they're not juveniles anymore

valid flower
#

Sub adults, they shouldnt be stronger than a fully grown Allo.

#

Freaking allosaur

#

lmao

#

Trust me a sub adult would be no where near as strong as an adult allo irl

hasty parcel
#

Too bad this isn't irl

#

You have to realize this a videogame

valid flower
#

its a realistic game

#

well

#

should be

hasty parcel
#

It's realistic to a point

#

Balance is the more important factor

valid flower
#

exactly

hasty parcel
#

And that's why they're as strong as the adult mid-tiers

valid flower
#

They are making apexes easier to grow

hasty parcel
#

No

#

They aren't

valid flower
#

thats why the servers are filled with rexes and gigas

hasty parcel
#

They nerfed the hunger on the juveniles and subs in the latest patch

#

They made it more difficult to grow the apexes

valid flower
#

Wasnt a big nerf tbh

hasty parcel
#

How are you sure

valid flower
#

They didnt change it that much

hasty parcel
#

Well, from what I've heard from others, it's way more difficult

valid flower
#

Well, you cant disagree with the fact that Trikes are weak rn

#

can u?

hasty parcel
#

Getting to the fully grown sub-adults still takes basically as long if not longer to grow an adult mid tier

valid flower
#

And as a sub trike, ur a walking burger for 200 mins

#

For every carnivore out there

hasty parcel
#

Yes, I know, and yes that's weird to me

valid flower
#

I got face tanked by rexes muiltiple of times which is pretty annoying

#

they just run to me, and bite.

#

with 0 skill.

hasty parcel
#

weirdest part being the recent buff to juvenile trike with 120N at full grown juvie and then 20N at fresh prog sub nivisoSquint

valid flower
#

When bleed killed u, skill was required, now not rlly.

#

Cause rexes had to worry about bleed dmg

barren zephyr
#

wdym it makes no sense their larger than u and carno is known for having a shitty bite

earnest cave
#

@valid flower I agrre with you you as a Diablo you can't out run a sub Rex and you can't fight back

hazy sparrow
#

Gotta love people discussing how rex and giga subs can kill allos and then somehow get into discussion about trikes...

valid flower

lol

#

@earnest cave yeah..

#

@valid flower Why does cera need a size buff?
Explain

hasty parcel
#

I mean, Cerato is my favorite dinosaur in Survival, but I am not very sure it needs a size buff, which would also mean a weight mass buff, probs health buff and possibly bite force buff dondiThink

#

It's in a pretty nice position in my opinion

normal fern
#

I know, random suggestion with no justification what so ever

hasty parcel

We don't want it to go back to Ceratorex

That's literally sucho

With the added ability to fish

@normal fern Mate

#

its sooo tiny

#

to the point where I cant tell if its a juvie or adult

#

for real.

#

I mean not a HUUGE size buff

#

Just a little bit bigger

#

its a size of a utah

#

almost.

waxen elk
#

Ceratosaurus is a god

#

All it needs is some bleed resistance and healing

valid flower
#

cera's use to have the best bleed resistance

#

what happened with that?

waxen elk
#

Was taken out

#

Because

#

?

#

No one knows

valid flower
#

Because rexes and gigas should be the strongest

According to the devs and dondi

#

Nothing should be better

than rexes and gigas

I tend to agree with the suggestions to reduce giga grow time by an hour. After the recent nerfs it's really doesn't need to take as long as it does

#

For the performance you get for the time, why not grow a rex? Which is what everyone is doing. Rex's outnumber gigas 10 to 1 on survival servers

desert prairie
#

@lone crypt Great idea, BB is a busted mechanic which makes rex stupidly op.

barren zephyr
stark ruin
#

@blazing charm Just read your "Baryonyx Survival Document", and it was so awesome. There was also a mention of an Austro document you had written. How many of these have you made and where can they be found? xD Because they're cool

barren zephyr
#

Rex needs bone break otherwise it's useless for crying out loud the animal can only run for 30 seconds before stopping

desert prairie
#

Yes because if a rex tags me as a giga its death

#

rip 7 hours of growth

barren zephyr
#

Well then you are a bad Giga player

desert prairie
#

Or hear me out

#

The rex actually has IQ above 10 and uses ambush correctly

hazy sparrow
#

🙄

desert prairie
#

The fact you think that an RNG mechanic that can basically make a dino immobile and trash hours of growth is dumb

barren zephyr
#

It's your fault then

#

If you can't hear a loud rex

desert prairie
#

I dont know if you know this

#

but you cant hear anything behind you

#

It's legit mute

hazy sparrow
#

Turn your head and you can

desert prairie
#

Oh damn

#

Didnt think of that

barren zephyr
#

Also the fact that you are saying that Rex having bone break is a broken mechanic is completely dumb cause as a Rex you need bone break to stop your prey otherwise your fucked since everything with a brain can outrun you

desert prairie
#

Well say if they do remove it

#

IF

#

They would obviously change its kit

blazing charm
#

@stark ruin Check the bottom of the document, there's a link that will take you to an index with every document i've done.

barren zephyr
#

Rex is fine right now it doesn't need to be changed

blazing charm
#

Granted, alot of them are outdated and I'm gonna start updating a few of them.

desert prairie
#

I don't know, rexes imo are to good right now

barren zephyr
#

How they're balanced with Giga right now

desert prairie
#

The bone break

#

an RNG mechanic

#

that tosses away 7 hours max

barren zephyr
#

I just told you why Rex had bonebreak

#

Cause it can't catch shit

wintry cipher
#

If rex didn't have bonebreak it would be giga chow

desert prairie
#

Yes because for some reason they made it an ambush predator

barren zephyr
#

Also Rex has a 7 hour growth time aswell

#

So what is your argument here?

desert prairie
#

Give rex a stun instead of a cripple

barren zephyr
#

That is basically what it does right now

desert prairie
#

no

barren zephyr
#

It hits you, you get a broken leg dead

#

You get stunned dead

desert prairie
#

Exactly most big dinos like giga or trike could have a chance to get away

#

maybe not trike

wintry cipher
#

A stun implies you can't even retaliate. With a broken leg you still can.

barren zephyr
#

^

#

Both of them immobilize you

desert prairie
#

my bad ment disorientate or knock over

barren zephyr
#

And die anyways

#

Alright

desert prairie
#

Rex doesn't 3 shot a giga

wintry cipher
#

....still worse than broken leg

desert prairie
#

it would have a chance to run

barren zephyr
#

No it wouldn't

#

Tell me that as a Giga you'd survive being knocked over by a rex no cause it would eat while your still alive

wintry cipher
#

If you are knocked on your side the animation alone would take 5+ seconds to get back up

#

You are dead

desert prairie
#

Got me there

#

Idk I just feel like the BB is annoying

barren zephyr
#

???

wintry cipher
#

Just keep your head on a swivel like everyone else. And if you need to learn to act like prey to survive, then do it

desert prairie
#

losing hours just because you are unable to get away

wintry cipher
#

You had the chance to get away before the rex could ambush. It also lasts only 6 seconds?

barren zephyr
#

That might suck and all but imagine if you were in the Rexes shoe you'd have to go through same hardships as him

wintry cipher
#

So he had to get super close

desert prairie
#

You're assuming the rex is alone

wintry cipher
#

All the harder to go unseen then. Everything runs in packs

desert prairie
#

Fair point

wintry cipher
#

I'm no Apex player mind you but that's pmuch my angle on it. You see rex you run/trot away. He can't tail you for long as a giga with that swagger

#

You just have to have eyes

desert prairie
#

I've only grown an apex once, it was a giga and I grouped with 2 others. Rex's are insane he 1v3'd us

barren zephyr
#

Were you full grown?

desert prairie
#

yup

wintry cipher
#

Did you try facetanking it?

desert prairie
#

Nope

#

He broke my leg on first hit

#

same with the other 1

wintry cipher
#

Bad luck for picking that fight.

desert prairie
#

Suppose

wintry cipher
#

That's all it is frankly, and if he hadn't you would have bleed him out easy

#

That's how it's balanced

desert prairie
#

Still not a fan of RNG

wintry cipher
#

I mean they could just make it not rng and succeed every time

desert prairie
#

eh

#

at this point im just waiting for path of titans to come out

empty junco
#

With rex bone break chance, the rex only has to get lucky once and its game over

#

high % bone break = very high odds of not survivng the fight as giga, as well as on the official servers rex's and gigas having the same limits creates a real issue

#

on US3 we have 3 5 pack rex groups that have divided the map into quadrants

#

the only counter to that is more rex's, you can't win the 5 giga vs 5 rex fight, you'd need 7-8 gigas

#

It'd be more balanced if the rex max group size was 3 and the giga max was 5, or 4 rex, 6 gigas or something

#

I think just setting the giga grow time back one hour and setting the rex / giga pack limits to 4 and 6

#

would balance things a fair bit

civic sky
#

As Keit said, best way to avoid rex is to simply, well, avoid it. Trike is the only dino I can see destroying rex fir obvious reasons.

#

Not to mention it’s slower so from a balance perspective it makes sense too

lone crypt
#

When regional damage comes in, BB will only be applied if you get bitten on the leg or waist

frail cargo
#

comes in

#

it's not here yet

empty junco
#

It's not possible to completely avoid rex's in the numbers currently being seen on the official dino servers imo, maybe if you stand in the exact center of the largest field you can find and rotate 360 degrees to check with your camera every 10-15 seconds

#

It's not practical

frail cargo
#

bonebreak could be removed from rex temporarily until it is added, to compensate from its removal rex's bleed could be increased a bit

civic sky
#

Not to say “if I can do it so can you” but I easily avoid them. Only time I get caught is when they ambush me but then again that’s on me fir allowing one to sneak up on me.

empty junco
#

When on a 100 player server 15-20 players are rex, its just too many.

civic sky
#

But you do have valid points, due to there being too many it can be hard. But I can avoid a pair or even three quite well.

empty junco
#

It's a struggle we have a megapack on us3 that has the map divided up into quadrants always in packs of 5

#

to not go over the limit

#

They have completely erradicated the herbi population (no herds in a week or more)

barren zephyr
#

@brazen wolf From all the comments you've posted about Giga in #401481402782056460 it just seems that you suck at playing Giga cause Giga can kill Rex and Rex can kill Giga it's a 50/50

empty junco
#

I don't agree @barren zephyr It's not close atm, 1v1 in sandbox rex wins that 80-90% + of the time even in good hands

#

especially with the ability to laydown and always live at the end from bleed

#

It's more damage + more health + bonebreak, and the turn radius is now similar

#

unless the rex player is terrible, they almost always win

barren zephyr
#

Are you on alt turn server?

empty junco
#

Offical, all have it on

#

It's very confusing to call a fight between two dinos where one has less health, less damage, no bonebreak and similar turn radius even.

#

It's really not

#

If stats stay the same giga needs atleast a grow time reduction

#

if unchanged

lilac swallow
#

At least giga can simply dont fight by out staming the rex, not like trike

empty junco
#

It does have that going for it^, perhaps the only thing it does have in its favor after last patch

GigaPlayersAreGoingRexSoThereIsLotOfRexInMap

#

GigaIsSnackToyForRexCurrently

umbral prairie
#

@wheat igloo at the moment, bb is far too easy to apply, just by biting the tail of something, I think once they introduce locational damage and dino collision, you will actually have to hit the leg to break it.I can imagine multiple creatures like anky, pachy etc getting bb once than is in

torpid wedge
#

yeah im sure more dinos are getting BB it’ll just be a matter of time

brazen wolf
#

SoThereIsLotOfSneekyRexOutThere

#

That'sTheGigaPlayers

umbral prairie
#

@brazen wolf agreed, but I think rex should keep it's speed and damage, but right now, with how easy using bb is and with ass riding being a thing, it is not requiring any skill to kill something as a rex except getting close without getting seen (which is also not hard to do). once ass riding is not possible and you don't do much damage when biting tails, also not applying bb when biting tails, rex will be fine

brazen wolf
#

😋

wheat igloo
#

Agreed, I really hope they are able to do locational damage soon

#

Otherwise right now the rex is just.. too much imo

umbral prairie
#

I hope combat rework will be a priority after the code rework, but there is so much more they want to do aswell

#

like fish, corpse dragging, flyers, affinity etc

brazen wolf
#

@umbral prairie Ass Riding Does not work with Rex, Because it would Alt Turn and spam bite.

#

when broken leg Giga is knocked out

#

and there goes 6 hours

umbral prairie
#

no I mean the rex ass riding a giga when it has a broken leg

#

that is the problem rn

#

but with the combat rework ass riding will hopefully be very inefficient

brazen wolf
#

I think giga needs Speed

umbral prairie
#

and breaking somebody's leg will hopefully require hitting the leg

brazen wolf
#

Same as Rex

#

so it could run away

#

It cannot fight Rex

#

only in gang mabe

umbral prairie
#

I think giga doesn't need to be as fast as rex, that would just doom all mid tiers since giga has 2 minutes of stam

brazen wolf
#

if Rex is a good player he could take out 2 giga

umbral prairie
#

giga could be a little bit faster so rexes need longer to catch up

brazen wolf
#

or nurf Rex back to Giga speed

umbral prairie
#

that would destroy it's intended hunting style

brazen wolf
#

i dont' understand why Rex is 3 km faster

#

that's too mcuh

#

even 1 km is enough

umbral prairie
#

it really isn't considering rex only has 30 seconds of stam while giga has 2 minutes and can regen stam by trotting

wheat igloo
#

The giga is supposed to be faster than the rex, rex isn't supposed to be too fast.

brazen wolf
#

Rex is not 30 secound

umbral prairie
#

giga was faster irl (probably, idk) but in game that would just not work with balance

brazen wolf
#

test it

#

am sure itruns like a minute

wheat igloo
#

Right now when running as a giga, it feels like it is running at a crawl speed

umbral prairie
#

giga is supposed to be an endurance bleeder (which it isn't because it kills without using bleed) , rex is supposed to be the fast ambusher

brazen wolf
#

It all started with the Rex speed buff

#

It screwed up all dinos

umbral prairie
#

they fit in their niches, just bb and ass riding is the problem

brazen wolf
#

Nono In my openoin speed is the main problem

umbral prairie
#

the rest is fine except giga could be a little faster so rexes need longer to catch up to them

brazen wolf
#

well i dont know if they will fix it

#

but i will not be playing giga anymore

#

Good luck sammel

#

am tiredof postiont

#

posting

#

and all these Rex players are Crying

#

looking at my post

umbral prairie
#

what rex players are crying? I'm sure every rex player is aware that rexes are too easy to play right now

#

I'm not a rex player myself but I like that it is a fast ambusher, before it's speed buff it wasn't a threat to anything but tacos

Why not let it have a claw attack?

Makes more sense than running and kicking.

@hasty parcel I'm on the right track, I just need more info

barren zephyr
#

Galli would do substantially less damage with an arm attack then he would if he could kick

#

Those arms are beyond frail

blazing charm
#

As for the claw attack, it's arms don't really look suited to clawing

barren zephyr
#

^basically what I'm getting at

jolly willow

Galli is literally an oversized chicken

#

the claw attack would do nothing

indigo sun

I think the legs are definitely stronger than the little arms. Should be better to just fix the kick a bit

jolly willow

Think of it like an emu

Or a cassowary

Although I will admit it does look odd when attacking

Except like 3 times larger

Locational Dmg will help the claw attack.
