I know, last Sunday checking into it.
I can keep it under my hat if you don't want to jot anything down so far in advance? I'm not sure what your cycle of revisions is.
Just making sure, I've had people use my outdated revisions before.
I usually just revise them whenever I think of something, so please enligthen me.
Although, after the Rugops one I am waiting until the code rework.
I did read the most recent one, I just didn't have a firm memory of when.
So. Main thing that got me thinking is the camelback gimmick. Fat & maybe water retention, with a metabolistic overdrive mode for fighting off other apexes. I thought that was very neat. It made me think of Acro as a kind of woe & weal creature, not just in the sense of famine, but of being suitable for extreme and varied conditions the proper apexes might not be suited to. Giga likes the plains, Rex likes the temperate forest, Spinosaurus the main waterways. Presently, with little in the way of a weather system and no climate, the main thing keeping them from stepping on each others' toes is combat balance.
Acrocanthosaurus is interesting. Its niche is, partly, the margins of every territory. It's a hobo dinosaur, a mendicant that might not claim territory as much as carve a path through others' turf, gassing up before moving on to the next area. But the camelback had me thinking on climate. Acro is unique among the large theropods in that it has lips. As I understand it, there's been plenty of debate as to whether theropods would've had exposed teeth in general- lots of griping about dinosaur reconstructions coming too close to the skulls and not thinking or speculating enough about soft tissue- but as it is, this is a unique feature. And the reason exposed teeth have been thought of as implausible is water retention.
What I'm driving at is that whenever you get around to a fresh revision, go in on the hump over the Acro's muscular ridgeback acting as both a water & fat reserve. I think there's no question that it should be dual role. But also consider the lips and their effect on overall water drain, and furthermore on climate viability, because the Acro could have the interesting distinction of being a viable desert predator.
No one else can really get into a hot, dry climate for long among the large theropods, making the desert a possible refuge for small to medium sized herbivorous prey that's fast and knows the terrain, thus being able to get to oases and to root for arid plants. And likewise their small to medium predators that have adaptations suitable for arid living in any future climate system.
Acro, in pursuit of these creatures or in very lean times in the less extreme climates, has one secure locale in the badlands of any future map iteration. It doesn't have the strength of the top tiers and it's a little clumsier than the other midweights like Allosaur, but secures itself as a go-anywhere live-anywhere extremophile that works in the margins available for it.
Another good key in is the night vision. Desert living is two extremes of blistering, beating days and chilling nights. When other creatures hunker down to conserve energy, Acro, with its fat reserves and at least semi-warmbloodedness as dinosaurs are speculated to have had combined with binocular night vision, will be capable of happily roving in conditions that other predators are not inclined to as a matter of energy conservation, catching herbivores with their pants down during otherwise safe if lean hours. In general, Acro roves a lot, because staying tied down at its awkward weight is a recipe for something big putting its foot down or the peanut gallery of proper midweights falling on it.
Does any of that seem reasonable? I realize this is a bit more than I thought it'd be in advance, but I didn't want to put out too little information to wrap head around and have to clarify.
First of all, I wanna make it clear that I reaveally love all of that. First to address the uh, water retention thing. I did mention in the doc that I personally was not sure, my reasoning for that is I wanted to provide the option for Acro being kind of a nomad, but not the degree where it rarely has to go near any kind of water, I know in the older iterations I had the hump store food & water.
As for the rest, again I really like that idea but it kinda ultimately hinges on whether or not some kind of arid biome or arid map is added Which is something I have been wanting for oh so long
The old map before the codebase cock-up did have a desert, didn't it?
Grim Expanse?
I wouldn't know the name, it was before my time.
I believe that is what you were referring to, that was a mod I am afraid.
You know, I gotta say I am super impressed by the amount of thought and detail you put into all of that, there is a certain suggestion doc that I plan to work on soon, something that I think you'd quite enjoy, shall we take this to PMs?
Sure thing. I'm happy to help.
Welp the only thing that Rex really need to nerf rn is it’s massive hitbox
But recoding is coming so not really
So i found out about having to pay for mods, whats up with that?
why wouldn't they do the same thing as most othere games and let the community flourish
There’s no mods on the isle
The modding function is disabled atm
Cus
Recoding of the game
Massive rework
@misty island please read complete sentence before commenting , the comment is towards what the hell was the thinking behind the full for paid work shop content? why not just do dlc and let us do what we do best and thats create cool stuff i have no problem with the workshop being down i care about paying for what on the workshop and how the rest of steam is suppose to look at that, if any of this is true though i have not et been giving proof so thats why i am here
how is this a suggestion discussion tho
I'm suggesting the do DLc and not paid woprk shop content and as the name applys i'm giving a reason as to why
thats not a discussion of an existing suggestion
again please read full sentence before commenting @edgy furnace
i did read the full sentence
huh
and it is if i make it so, why wouldn't my opinion be valid just because you can;t see reason, stop flaming and leave me alone
i dont think seth meant to ping you heckaroo. i think they meant heckatoo
1 letter name difference lol
whoops lmfao
and im not "flaming" you im just saying make a suggestion first and then discuss it
8:05 PM] Seth: So i found out about having to pay for mods, whats up with that?
Suggestion *[8:06 PM] Seth: why wouldn't they do the same thing as most othere games and let the community flourish
like really guys
put a suggestion in #general-feedback
I'm aloud to discusse here, stop flaming
All that's being said is you're putting the cart before the horse.
The thing to do is put in suggestions, 'Please don't ever put in paid mods if you're thinking of doing it.'
you have a problem with me and how i do things, not a legit problem with any currently existing rule, your flaming on me because theres nothing else to, please make reasonable reply's or don;t say anything if you got nothing nice to say
Then discuss it.
whatever
So where's the source on paid mods for Isle anyways? Steam dunked the paid mods scheme a long time ago.
no one's necessarily disagreeing with you or saying it's a bad suggestion. theyre just saying to actually put it in suggestions so people can see it and that this is the place for discussion. it's easier to keep them separate because otherwise your suggestion could get lost among discussion.
@indigo sun at least someone's capable of reason and thought into what they say, thanks for the info i'll do that now
literally said the same thing just simpler lmao
just said you should put your suggestion in the suggestions channel then suggest it
thanks for explaining anyway nines
and there isnt paid mods in the first place btw
not a thing
its all free mods
proof? @edgy furnace
Where did you hear about mods having to be paid for?
Neither have I. Closest thing I know is server owners planning on comissioning people to design mods.
steam is pro-consumer theyd never make it like that lol
What are you talking about?
now that your getting the idea that you can't pay for mods on the workshop where do you think you'll be getting it from
server hosts? how does that have to do with the workshop or modding
I'm confused about what you're saying. Again, where did you get this information?
im confused too
if you're having to get mods by paying for it you're being scammed buddy
and tricked
and besides, mods dont even work right now
yeah honestly i have no idea what youre talking about cause theres no paid mods no mods for the games and you went from mods to server hosting for some reason earlier
I think I have a possible reason for Seth talking weird
Maybe he was told to paid the mods
In a particular server
To get Dino or such
And for sm reason he read it wrong or as he said
“Did not read complete sentences”
Btw I read ur entire sentence I was merely telling u there’s no mod available for this game right now
Aka no workshop content
As you would call it
Yeah, this isn't a Suggestion Discussion. Back to the channel topic, thanks!
@timid steeple That is so easily exploitable
Wait i am interested
How did you read it?
xd
You thought it was so that people could look down in the burrow? xD
Thought you were implying they could look around outside, while inside the burrow.
My apologies
I'm not sure how easy that would be since the burrow isnt at the same level the entrance is but is actually a big distance under the entrance (have someone make one on a sandbox test level server with nametags and you'll see how far down their name goes)
This is likely to prevent burrows popping out of the mesh
I don't think you should be able to see out. It's kind of the balance for being able to burrow in the first place.
And its not like you cant hear things approach either
ANd if someone does sneak on you and they're hungry, the AI will give them away also
I think seeing out from the hole would make sense. You never know, a large carnivore might be waiting completely still and not making any noise waiting for you to come out.
Yeah, that's the problem with the burrow. Things can just stand still and BAM once you out
Well, that's the trade off for literally being the only dino with a "safe space"
40 minutes of day and 25 of night.
No, just no. Some thing same.
Like day 30 minutes and night 30 or 25 minutes.
tbh I think it'd be worth it to have a slightly longer day, since the transitions between day and night practically add extra night time, and they should be equal
@swift jacinth I’m pretty sure that’s going to be added (but I may be wrong)
it would be quite helpful
I almost got eaten last night cause I couldn't find the burrow in the dark
And if seasons are added in the far future there could be time differences such as in real life. Example: day would be longer or shorter depending on the season and the same would go for night though I think alot of people would hate that lol
Who would like it also most if the first tissoplastic would be a allosaurus?
Do you have to post that everywhere? 
Sorry, I want answers.
dont gotta spam it everywhere
Posting that everywhere is probably just going to dissuade people more than anything.
has there been confirmed that there would be actual body dragging?
I think so, or at least the ability to carry prey has been in the works
thats not dragging like my suggestion stated
I would assume if they are working on carrying they may be considering dragging corpses
But I’m not sure
I could have sworn though some ask-a-devs back dragging was mentioned
If you have a respawn button after 1:30 hours, it's just useless except for apex 
they meant picking up stuff🤦 thats not dragging
I think "respawn button" should exist
It does, in Sandbox mode
No no, I mean I thought I saw something about dragging, Chungus. Not carrying. I thought I saw it discussed in a ask-a-dev.
But it’s been so long since I’d seen it though
Dragging was discussed, I'm looking for it now.
both is planned afaik
Yeh the click of Dondi carrying a galli and saying that he'll be able to work on actual dragging soon
So both planned
^
didn't he talk about picking things up that are still alive and killing them in your mouth? not sure on that but iirc he said that in one of the galli carrying clips
Naw, don't have to take it down
Does anyone know if alt turn is gonna stay in the game or if it will be romoved
it will stay
sorry that im askin here dont think there is an channel for such things
the option to disable alt turn will go away
so only alt turn will stay
yes
it just needs an animation
and it will maybe get slower for some dinos when combat gets reworked
np
As much as I adore George's idea of a Tisso Allo, but the fact that it is partially based off of dober-guana Allo is yucky
I did not need a reminder of that abomination.
Oh, also upvoting your own suggestion is yucky.
Tisso Allo is not a half bad Idea though
shut
Tisso/nu-Tisso anything would be nice, really. What's the deal with the strain being reworked?
That thing is the coolest thing I ever saw(Tisso Allo)
@fervent hearth excuse me what
😄
what in the holy hell is going on there
the new gallie!

i hope to have it approved my monday 😄
no
YES O?O
Approved by who?
wait what?
Nothing, you see nothing.
lmao how does a pack of 5 allos kill a herd of 5 dibbles
The last thing the official servers need is dumb "can't kill this" rules, every server I've been on with rules about when you can and cannot kill always turns into a reportfest and it takes a lot of fun out of the game imo
If you dont like being mass killed grow a trike, log out and grow a trike in the same place.
bet you will kill those pesky bois then 😃
@desert prairie What about a pack of 13 Utah’s killing a whole heard? Rofl
I personnally dont like mass killing but rules against mass killing are even worse
True, but I hate seeing a giant Utah pack hunt everything it sees down even tho they have plenty of food around lol. Also on EU 1 was there a Hypo who killed 4 rexes and 2 gigas and 1 trike?
So?
It's a hypo, a relentless killing machine endlessly hungering for more and more meat
or plants, as the herbs may turn out to be
if you cross the path of the hypo, death is an expectation, not a possibility
Yeah
It's the same with mass killing, in my eyes. If you get into a big herd for protection, big packs will form to hunt them. Utahs are forced to pack because it's the only way they can really be effective at the moment, but in general you're never truly safe. And that's the name of the game. In a herd you're safer and have allies who can help you if you get attacked, but it doesn't necessarily mean you're automatically protected
Along with big packs comes more mouths to feed, more hunger to deal with.
Killing big herds fufills that
I have a camouflage dilo skin and was hiding in a bush when a hypo carno came by, i was so scared rofl
There's no reason to restrict mass killings
That's true
If you heard
I was a carno with 3 other friends
then we started nesting people in
Like super super grazy nesting
We ended up having 28 carnos in 1 group
Running amock on the server
I love how a group of 3 rexes just looked at us and ran for their lives lol
But yeah, the larger the herd the more carnivores it will attract
Idk some people like playing differently
I like how there is servers with rules
Having no rules on any server would get annoying after a while
Keep your realism rules out of my servers. 
They not yours 
If a herd of maias are being killed by 13 utahs those maias deserve it
@dark basin Got to work on those social skills, can‘t enter a discussion like that throwing random stuff around and then ask people to leave you alone 
@lethal sparrow I think there should be more of an outline for your dinosaur when in a higher-foliage area, or maybe a white outline for yourself in general or something. Good idea tho!
@fading shadow I suggested that too
@barren zephyr outstanding move
@jovial blade I assume you mean for things that would migrate (because fat dryos and gallis aren’t very... desirable for herb players)
But I do like the concept of a fat reserve- maybe during combat it can work as a slight armor as well
But maybe as a trade off falls can be even more fatal for those with a higher current fat reserve (more weight to splat on the ground)
Dryos and gali wouldn't really migrate their fat storage wouldn't be that big anyway
I think this will help herbs alot in the future I'm sure there will be more plains with less plants
I mean, yeah, but your speed gets you places @coarse shell. Trikes don’t have that luxury.
VR Veiw
Last I checked, Mercs will have a first-person view while Tribals have 3rd, but I could be wrong. No need for something like VR.
And Brachio is still in the works, so I doubt the devs will just randomly pass them out to players.
I hope both mercs and tribals will not be able to look behind them without turning around, it would be cooler to be able to strafe left/right with A and D instead of turning the camera behind you
@torn thistle seeing as its just a reskinnned Pue it would slowly starve to death and such. I just see it as a fun and short lived experience. Since you'll eventually starve to death and all lol. Its functional enough to be fun and the model looks up to par.
To each their own.
@willow zealot whyd you react to your own suggestion xD
Here's a suggestion, outlaw people upvoting their own suggestions.
King i agree 100%
@dreamy basin theri is a sandbox dino, they're not a priority at the moment
@umbral prairie I know. Thanks. Was just hoping for a quick speed change when it's possible
yeah quick stat changes would not be hard to do, I could also imagine theris run animation looking ok when played slower but I think they won't change sandbox dinos for quite some time, even though it might not be hard to balance in some cases
and if they make an exception many people will probably ask for changes for other sandbox dinos
then it'll never end
@white falcon The thought was that it's strange that you can't generally see forward past a tree or bush stand when you're sitting in it, no matter how hard you twist the camera around, where you may be able to if there was a first person camera or a plugin opacity toggle with a modest radius, keying off the same function that makes foliage transparent when you zoom in inches away from it. I do agree a self-highlight function would be helpful for just assessing how you're physically oriented on the fly in, say, some of the solid brush sticks in Thenyaw.
@heady sun did you just have a stroke there
cause that seems more like a stroke more than a suggestion
^
@south flower its not a survival
But it is still a playable dinosaur. I understand they are working on survival dinosaurs now but at some point it would be nice to see the Theri be able to be able to fight more realistically, or at least in my opinion.
Why work on a dino that barely anyone plays or cant play
Theri might not even make it to survival
I see people playing Theris all of the time, and if Stego makes it to survival I don't see why Theri couldn't somewhere down the road.
Unless they absolutely plan for Theri to not be in survival, anyway.
I almost never see theris
They want to make gameplay realistic, I just feel that it would be more "realistic" if Theri did some form of bleed damage.
I don't think they're going to bother on non survival they still have to do loads to do
And that may be so, but I can still at least make the suggestion for the heck of it. Maybe they'll read it, maybe they won't, but at least it's there.
Aside from Theri just being a sandbox dinosaur currently, hence irrelevant right now
Gameplay "realistic" wouldn't work because if that applied then T.rex would fuck the ecosystem.
Realism is rendered irrelevant if it clashes with gameplay.
I hadn't heard them "wanting" to make gameplay realistic
So are you saying Theri with those machetes for claws shouldn't cause blood to spurt from any creature it slashes into? How would that clash with the gameplay if it was somehow balanced?
You said "They want to make gameplay realistic"
And I always was under the impression that, as far as anatomy, habits, etc go for dinosaurs to make each unique, was to be realistic
I'll say again that with sandbox dinosaurs being almost entirely third party server owners' problem outside of sandbox servers, where nothing has consequences or matters, that throwaway experimental balancing of said dinosaurs is perfectly reasonable.
The team itself won't have to do testing of said changes or any hard math metabalancing until the time they want to bring a dinosaur over from sandbox; until then, players on third party survival servers with injection systems will bear with the changes and act as pay-to-play outside testers, as is the case with basically all early access games. Ignoring the ethics of the concept, it's technically sound to do whatever and let the problem sort itself out through 'nerf X/buff Y' reports for further rough balancing.
theri needs to be slower, then it can have high damage and/or bleed
plus if the gameplay was 'realistic' apexes (or at least rexes) would snap a theri's neck in one bite
but if they change one sandbox dino there will be tons of requests to change the other ones
and complaints about the changes done since there was no real testing done
Theri is already sort of fragile, so isn't that already sorted?
idk about the stats, or maybe I am just bad at fighting or the hitboxes were buggy, but theri always seemed way too strong to me
it is fast and has high damage
idk about the turn or the bleed res or anything so I don't know how apexes fair against it
@craggy geyser Just ask in global who wants to join
If no one replies no one is interested
Yes but not on every server you can talk in global @jovial blade
I haven't been in a single server that doesn't allow global
I feel like people will just spam invite all
Will be annoying for solo players
You should just suggest in the community server you play in to enable global lol
most servers that don't have global have a global chatroom in their discord to somewhat solve it anyway
Sure Theris are decently fast, with high damage, but they can’t take a hit. They’re Glass cannons
How is a trike breaking bone with its stomp
If something gets stomped that's small would just die by the sheer weight
And if you're stomping something bigger then you all you will be breaking is toes 😂
this would not work with locational without looking goofy
also i think trikes stomp should be replaced with a run trample so stupid small packs can stop trying to hunt it
When people say that theri is balanced despite the fact that it's faster than a cerato and would routinely run down every carnivore that isn't an apex
🤔
And people say that carnivores are "OP"
and theri is sandbox
so its relevancy is null and void
you cannot compare sandbox dinosaurs to survival dinosaurs.
Trike breaking bone with a stomp is the only BB that makes sense other than like Pahcy theoretically breaking bones again. It weighs 16,000 lbs and you're literally having its weight thrown on you. I could def see giving it that or trample (one or the other) logically. Rex only makes sense because of its bite force, but from a balance perspective giving something highest raw damage + bleed + bone break on its one single attack doesn't make sense, especially when you're trying to create playstyle diversity through different species/differentiate the roles of different species
rex needs both the high damage and bb for it's hunting style, without bb it would run out of stam/lose it's ambush before it could kill it's target, but bb will probably be changed with locational damage and dino collision
so you can't break legs by biting tails
we definitely don't need more things with bb lool
It’s fine to have bb, but definitely don’t think it needs as much as it has
I think it’d be fine to give other dinosaurs bonebreak where it makes sense imo
not now
Pachy makes sense and trike makes sense imo, even if you make them lower chances for it
because currently bone break fucking sucks and it should be kept minimal
I agree that we don’t need other things with 70% bonebreak
But you can give other things bb without making it 70%
when it gets reworked, sure, ofc add it to anything that needs it
trike does not need to break legs, if anything is small enough to be stomped on by trike it would be dead anyways, otherwise the trike would only hit the feet/lower legs of the dino it attacks
K'sariya that's not the problem
the bb chance needs to go away
it would be cool to have different bb stages
70% bb is actually good because you know you're gonna get the bb lol
so you're not instantly fucked if you're bitten unless you're significantly smaller
Yeah, that I’d be fine with, but i figure that they won’t rework a mechanic while recode is going on
The chance of bb is probably just a variable somewhere
ye, so no bb for now
because we don't want it to be how it used to be when like half the dinos had bb, and every single fight was purely luck based
I really hope juvie speeds will get looked into after the code rework and some new mechanics
some juvies are so painfully slow
because they use the same animation as the adult
some should be slow
Yeah I agree the rng sucks, because rn trike vs Rex 1v1 is rng, just heavily tilted in Rex’s favor
rex can kill both other apexes 1v1 because of bb
because you can't alt turn with bb
rex should definetly have the advantage over giga lol
Well and because you can’t stomp as trike, you just can’t facetank Rex bites even wh I’ll spamming gores
I think rex should win a clean 1v1 with giga
idk about trike, some people say that they can actually win with trike in a 1v1?
but giga should be able to bleed it out if it surprises the rex
trike should be next to impossible to kill from the front
If you manage to get off more than one stomp before bonebreak as trike, yeah
But the odds are heavily against you
but more vulnerable if attacked from behind
Otherwise, you have to have other herbies around to keep the Rex moving and off of the trike
And to wear down its bleed
But if you only get one stomp (or less) off as trike 1v1 and you don’t have some terrain advantage (like your back to a cliff or something), you lose because of the sheer difference in bite force
a rex should almost kill a trike if it manages to bite down on it's neck for some seconds (idk if that will be a thing, but I really hope grabbing necks or other things will be a thing at some point)
And terrain only counts if you bait them into breaking their leg or something lol
Yeah, we’ll just have to wait and see what they do to the systems after the recode
ye I wonder how combat will actually be after the rework
I think it would be cool if rex killed most smaller things up to allo size with a neck bite tbh, but it would have to be very hard to get a good grip on necks so it is not too easy/strong
will you still just get some bites in or will you be able to grapple
with a chance of slipping and giving the prey a chance to run off
I wouldn’t expect anything too complex or accurate or riveting, though. Not a AAA game
I really hope that they will get hitboxes fixed
I imagine if they plan for quality they get it
if they do that, licational damage will probably be fairly easy
Locational damage will probably be the best we get. Hit boxes will hopefully be improved, but if MHW can’t get it completely right, idk if The Isle can
the only difference between this and a AAA game is the time it takes to actually make it
dino collision and momentum will be harder to do
because both speed and weight will play a role in ramming things
Yeah, and the time it takes to develop = money
and the speed/weight difference of the dinos running into each other
Assuming they’re employing developers and it’s not just volunteer work
Either way, could probably waffle about what we hope to see all day and nothing will come of it unfort, just have to wait and see
I'm most likely overestimating the possibilities of what they can implement
without it being buggy and not working
@blazing charm i am absolutely in love with your suggestion, as i really look forward in playing the velociraptor i feel like that is the most accurate i'd want the playstyle to be 👏
Yeah, that’s kind of what I was getting at; collision probably won’t be anything more than not being able to walk through Dino’s and getting stuck on them, and locational damage probably won’t be any more than landing attacks in certain hit boxes on a model for multiplier damage. That kind of stuff takes a lot of time and money to do, and is stuff that even AAA games haven’t quite gotten right. But it’ll be a fun improvement regardless, just have to manage expectations
I think dondi said something about ramming, not sure on that though
yeah locational damage will probably be damage multipliers
I wasn’t there when Utah pounce was out, but heard it was retracted for business
So probably @ without it being buggy and not working part
*buginess
Autocorrect pls
yeah pounce caused bugs
but it will return eventually
and locational damage will probably be multipliers at first, but I hope there will be grabbing/impaling/clawing at some point, although that will be time and money consuming and hard to do
I just dont see why trike needs bb
Why tf would it be stomping a fucking apex in the first place
it's suppose to charge it's horns and cause bleed
the stomp is dumb in general
Literally imagine that
a trike trying to stomp
a tier 4
when it can just stick its horns and cause massive bleed
I could imagine an attack where the trike pushes itself forward(not much distance, just a short increase of it's speed)using some stamina, ramming it's horns straight in the direction it is facing and slowing down again if it misses (and obviously slowing down if it hits aswell since it gets stopped by the dino it is attacking) and maybe dealing some more damage if the attack is used while sprinting
Only stomp i see trike would be using is like a small stomp for like smaller dinos, not like the long necks where they go on their back legs and drop
trike doesn't need bb anyway this is stupid it still loses to rex in a facetank
it should get its old turn back instead of this annoying "give it BB" no thank you
@barren zephyr Its ok
When collision is a thing rex wont be able to face tank a trike
lol
but collision= more face tank lol what
How?
How tf is a rex biting a trike where its horns are
It need to bite the neck for more dmg
it is stopping going trough people
and leg to break bone
Biting tail for bb wont be a thinfg
thing*
You will need to bite the leg
ofc
So how is a rex face tanking a trikes horn
locational damage = anything facetanking trike dies
You would do the least damage
It's protected on its front
I would much rather go for neck shots
and leg bites for the bb
i dont remember it being mentioned that facetanking a trike would cause it so u take some dmg from biting it in the face
No the part where the trike is stabbing you in the face with its horns
you don't but the trike also takes next to no damage
thats locational
@umbral prairie the anky will eventually be in survival dude
of course it will get bb once it is in survival, but right now it is not so it won't get bb
there is no reason for it not having some form of bb once it is in survival
how do you know? it used to have it, they removed it for some reason... so they can re-add it
they do not do anything with sandbox dinos
they won't change sandbox dinos
still wrong
They don't? They're currently working on a stego right now...... 😉
yeah
yeah because it will be in surv
sammel don't act like you know everything about something you know nothing about
you are making no sense sammel
they don't get changed until they're getting worked on for surv
They do work on Sandbox dinos, just not the same priority as survival.
exactly
yes
sammel stop trying argue something you know nothing about, even a moderator is saying your wrong, and you keep going... just shush
I am still very sure that anky will not get bb right now, especially with how bb works
they kept it for rex because of it's low stam and it relying on it to have a successful hunt
I just don't see a point in suggesting non survival dinos atm
I feel like your suggestion will just get drowned out
XD
i honestly could not care less about your opinion whether you think it will or wont, I put it in the suggestions section, not the IT WILL HAPPEN section...
even though you don't care about what I think
I know you can, but stop telling everybody that they don't ever work on sandbox dinos when they actually do
they do ?
they are working on stego right now david
...
Well from what we know stego is only thing eing worked on
that makes stego a survival dinosaur
not it dosn,t, because it isn't
I didn't say they will never work on sandbox, but they will not be a priority for quite osme time
they are working on it, new animations and model
its being modeled to be playable in survival, explain, reaper.
its a survival dinosaur.
so it is pointless to suggest things like anky bb
that is exactly what u said sammel
it will be balanced toward survival
So?
it's still not a survival dino
It's only a survival dino when its in survival
XD
...
it is getting ready for surv
Nothing wrong with suggesting things for Sandbox dinos.
it dosn't matter if it is fucking pointless, I put in the suggestions because people wanna see it, and I wanna see it... for the final fucking time, just because I put in the suggestion box, DOES NOT MEAN IT WILL HAPPEN
I still know that
so shut up
Calm down folks, don't argue over suggestions.
and I will still say that it is pointless right now, idk why you're suddently so angry
if you know that, then stop complaining about it, and shut tf up
Let's just take a break, eh?
ye
finally
But still
He said stego is a survival dino just because its being worked on
It's not in survival atm
So it's a sand box dino
it is being worked on because it is getting ready for surv
Yeah
they do not work on it to stay a sandbox dino
that is the difference between stego and anky (atm)
I don't want to continue this, but I didn't mean that all sandbox only dinos will stay that forever and will not be changed ever, if it seemed like that is what I meant then I am sorry
I keep seeing that start of game being an ear rape suggestion But I don't see any proble m are they talking about the ae intro?
It’s not an ear rape on my end so I don’t even know what that’s all about. 🤷
It is very loud
Just at 60 volume its loud
When it starts up theres a really loud sound
homo complainopithecus
could it be possible that no one in your group can do damage to each other. I dont know how many times i've died from team mates by accident 😦
put it in there before you put it in the discussion channel
and you gotta coordinate your hunts/fights better
punishment for not doing that is you die to your team mates on accident
imagine a pack of 5 rexes ambushing in all biting the same thing, killing it in a single second and repeating it with the next thing they see
because they can't hit each other
yeah it would ruin the combat
or 5 trikes standing in the same place horns facing outwards constantly attacking and nothing would happen to them
because they can't hit each other and nothing can attack them
2 is a little much
2 is just for balance where other dino have a pack limit
I think than 3 apex would be nice because these dinosaurs lived in group.
And bigger group.
But for balance I think other dino should have a pack limit
realism doesn't matter in balancing, but 3 would be still a good number
I don't think they really need a pack limit
maybe affinity will affect packs that are too big
but right now it is fine how it is
I think they need because meet an allo pack and these allos are 8 or 9 is too much
A limit like 5 is good
OR 6
After, this depend of how many are other dinos
I think affinity might get lowered if there are like 20 allos
Like if you meet a diablo pack and they are 6 or 7 yes
or 20 anything
Affinity will nerf mega pack
yeah hopefully, although mega packs are rare anyways
Affinity will, what I've understood, obligated player to play a little bit "realisticly".
there are as good as no herbis
Like no mega pack, mix pack, herbivore corps guarding, spawn kill etc
hypo dryo 😂
Why didn’t they add a hypo dryo for April fools lol
Too much work for a joke.
oof
hypo [insert herbivore here] wheeeeeeze le epic joke my dudes
never heard that before
sure slaps me on the knee
Because herbivores being engineered to better killing machines seems logical
@violet magnet that’s something to ask discord devs
Heck. Its an in-game thing. XD
Ohhh
I’m dumb

I was like why are you asking these devs
I always just use steam chat or discord chat so i forgot that was a thing
It happens to me on discord so I thought they meant that lmao
Your discord is stuffed then
idk a ton of fans are carnivore bias just as much as the devs lol
this game has a Trex bias ... 60% of the players are Trex .. why? because it is OP
on thenyaw dilos seem to be the most popular dinos
It's also a very famous dinosaur
Same if spinosaurus was a survival
You would see a ton of spinos and rexes
how are rexes op, sure bb is too strong and you have no chance once your leg is broken but unless you let the rex get close to you before it starts it's ambush it can't do anything
the ambush is fast but short, with the ambush a rex only runs about 70-75 meters far, if you run away while the rex ambushes you that is nothing
because it has to catch up
how is alt turn disgusting
do you like utahs soloing rexes?
some creatures need slower alt turn once locational damage/dino collision are a thing, and it needs an animation
plus bb needs some changes
but I don't understand what is disgusting about alt turn besides battles needing timing and baiting instead of ass riding
i really dont understand how people are starving as sucho
you can eat small ribs as a juvie, fill up on one before progging then live off of ai
fresh prog adult shouldnt be hunting shit either way cause youre still the same weight as a carno
hardcore sucho players try to survive off of only fish 
this is where id survive off of fish
IF THERE WERE ANY
that's the point 
but memes aside
Honestly it just seems like they're area locking themselves
Granted, all the common areas for sucho players have decent ai spawns
sucho is literally one of the easiest juvies to survive as, ^
not to mention that to my knowledge sucho still has prog hunger values no?
No
They changed that
Juv Sucho starves in roughly 30-or so minutes now
Compared to not needing to eat at all during its growth

That's plenty of time to get an oro though
From just about any spawn
Northernmost and canyon can be hit or miss for ai, but everywhere else is easy
I disagree
i just experienced it then
Surviving off of ai is simple
i starved twice as a sub sucho because ai wouldnt spaawn
I'm not a part of this conversation, but let me just quickly say, AI spawns almost everywhere- Even sometimes in the middle of absolute nowhere, if you sit and wait, chances are, AI will spawn nearby.
I did
twice xD
idk its rlly weird
it only happens on Nycta
particularly nycta 3
so i wonde rif its somethign to do with the amount of people on
Nycta has many issues of its own
since it had 200 people
Like rubberbanding off cliffs because your ping is above 1000
Ah, so one of those 200 count servers where it's been admitted things get wonky when there's more than 100 players.
very tru
yea idk its very odd
idk abt other servers but definetly on nytca its very hard to grow a sucho
fish are planned, and sucho will be able to eat them (and probably spino aswell once they add it to surv) but idk about bary
what bugs are there on bary
I don't think they will do anything to sandbox dinos (in the next months)unless there are some very serious bugs
yea its rlly sad
@barren zephyr I never knew baryonyx was bugged? it's a sandbox dino so it likely won't be fixed for a while anyway
ok thx firefish, shame though
What are the bugs though? @barren zephyr
@umbral prairie Because I've seen vids of alt turn its stupid
I rather wait for collision
Or a form of trample
Wdym alt turn will be permanent in every server?
el devs are disabling the ability to turn alt-turn off
Damn
It woin't be the pirouette it is now though
Hopefully it will be better with collision
'I've seen vids of alt turn its stupid' still doesn't explain why you think it is disgusting
have you seen vids of no alt turn?
Because it encourages face tank battles
utahs and ceras soloing apexes?
Yes
Yea but your bad for letting people ride you
bb encourages ass riding at the moment, sadly
A skilled player knows ways around it
most times it is really not 'your bad'
Also it makes ambushing much more important
just kosed a juvie giga for sport
most times you cannot do anything against it
With alt turn you just face tank
you don't
no, with alt turn it encourages group play
now i know why ppl kos
Literally every alt turn vid I've seen they jsut turn and face tank
one man keeps their focus, and the other goes in for ass bites
Gives rex such a big advantage
bb is too strong imo
but again, rexes can only ass ride things with broken legs because they can't alt turn
if they could turn rexes would still need to do something to not get hit
So you dont jsut turn and face tank lole that
Like*
10/10 idea
you can't juke as an apex
i would rather sidestepping be a thing
You can
then the assrider is dumb as shit
if you get juked by an apex as a utah or cerato then you're either new to the game or just bad
With collision and a new form of alt turn then it can be good
collision and locational damage will make ass riding harder and inefficient
and then alt turn can be made slower
but it is a necessary mechanic
It can
giga is fast though
goddamn dummy trike
Looks fast to me
giga alt turn is very fast
Clearly haven't killed enough people using alt turn then
they have watched videos
fucking mai fucks with me and why i show that i do not like it he comes and kills me.. the fucking trike
go officials
ah yes, because watching a video and actually experiencing it are the same thing
Nah
Officals m ping is too high
My
Vralen
I dont need to be in game
To see how fast it looks
When its on video
@jovial blade, I can help fix the ping. There's something you can do to lower it a bit
it shows a ping of 300 for me on officials and I still hit when I click
I'm told that the ping in the group tab actually reflects your ping
opposed to the tab view
I'd suggest playing on alt turn servers to try it, of course there are people not doing anything but turning in place, which is why I hope alt turn will get slowed down for some creatures, but hit and run still works with alt turn, just ass riding is not a thing
@craggy river the servers can't handle more players at the moment without the AI spawns being weird, since every AI is almost as much as a player for the server
@craggy river Apparently the game doesn't really support server counts over 100
that is why some people say it is 'too big'
I don't think it is too big, I like that you can travel long distances without just walking in a circle like on thenyaw, but many spots on the map are way too empty
It has the right size just not the right amount of people
Yep and people just go on certain spots because you wont really find other people if you travel
Yeah, personally, either the map is too large or more mechanics need to be introduced to keep all players constantly moving around the map, or make it easier to find large groups of players that stay on one place for a long time (ie the scent clouds suggestion, and other suggestions that force players to move around)
Now that I've played for a little while, I typically know the spots that people frequent and can find people, but there was a time or two when starting off where I would travel for hours without finding a single player on a full 100 person server
Same with spawning in a place either far from water or where you can't visually see water from, as a newbie if I headed the wrong direction for water, I would just walk forever, see nobody, and then die of thirst. And by the time I'd get the RNG to respawn there again, it was easy to forget which way I'd gone
fortunately I liked playing as a dinosaur enough to continue playing, and I had one good spawn near Pride Rock where I was a tiny dryo surrounded by predators, but wasn't exactly a riveting introductory experience on the others
finding a balance between difficult survival and enjoyable enough for new players so that they keep playing the game is hard, but not impossible
I made a suggestion on (maybe) improving herbivore gameplay a bit yesterday that would make them move around the map more, but in general there need to be some things to make more spots more populated, either just water/food, interesting terrain (so no constant steep hills you can break your legs on) or something else so people want to go there or at least not specifically avoid these places
that combined with the servers being able to hold more players without the AI bugging out would improve the map and the gameplay on it
AI spawns need to be changed aswell, it is easier to get AI if you stay in one spot all the time than when travelling around, that should definitely not be the case
i play on a server on v3 where everybody tends to hang out at Twin Lakes, under the Radio Tower
herbivore food HARDLY EVER spawns there, but the herbivore herds INSIST on hanging out THERE, even after what little food spawns around the lakes runs out
there are herbivores on officials?
there's bountiful food almost everywhere else on the map, but these players will not move and it dumb
on an unofficial server
the only ones I ever see are at this lake in the mountains close to the jungle docks
there are always 20+ bushes there
there are usually a lot of bushes up around radio tower and behind twin lakes toward the mountainside temple
but for some reason herbis won't move from the lake that's infested with carnivores and then they cry foul when they get hunted
people don't like moving.
so in response to "people will move if food is somewhere else"...nah. They won't
Because bushes spawn like carnivore ai when they get hungry lol
not exactly like carnivore ai but still
bushes don't run around and scream at you
@shrewd beacon Drinking is SUPPOSED to be a risk. If you could just drink while running, Deinosuchus would be completely obsolete.
@lethal shell is planned
^
@blazing charm but it would be for like lakes and streams where the Deinosuchus would be more visable.
Wha-
Hold on, just so I am 100% clear.
Your excuse, is that you can run-by drikk in lakes and streams, where Deinosuchus would normally be.
There's more aquatic predators than just Deino to worry about.
Okay, so now no one will ever go near a lake again.
Because why risk my life when I just do a drive by drinkie?
mm, you have a point
didn't dondi talk about fixing your camera in one position (or limiting your ability to move the camera around as freely as you can when walking) while drinking so it is more risky
Also drinking while running sounds like a good way to choke.
I could see a herbivore drinking and being able to slowly walk along some shallow water
but running is ridiculous
But the thing is, theres no choking yet
....
Maybe walking, sure
I'm legitmately not sure how to respond to that.
Maybe if and when choking gets added, doing that could be a way to die, and you'd have to do it while walking or doing the trot thingy
Choking is not gonna be added what are you talking about
That wasn't like, a suggestion for a choking mechanics ffs, I am saying it would be stupid as hell to have something lower its head down to drink, WHILE RUNNING.
this conversation is truly something
This channel is truly something.
Suggeston discussion is a plauge i'll tell you that much
Next topic dino sex.
oof
I'm happy that there has not been a shitting suggestion in more than a week (or at least that I haven't seen any)
the fact that thats something to look forward to is rather sad
again, oof
Did someone say
Maia milk
i think thats enough discussion for one day
mhm
don't mums already make milk though?
Scent trails need to be more effective. Not just foot prints.
scent is not finalized afaik
but it works ok at the moment so it is not a priority
Nope wanted to discuss it.
I also hope scent will be something else than glowing footprints
yea
but since you can already track people and find food with the current scent system it is probably not something they will change with/shortly after the recode
Being able to smell pray/danger nearby would make the game more immersive. Also adding wind so hunting becomes more than just walking around. It would change the way you position yourself for both types.
poop best mod
@coral jetty omfg YES PLS
That is so easily exploitable
Oh no I died, better switch to my other dinosaur and get my revenge.
true
You would spawn when you left with that dino and need to search the guy who killed you
In my opinion it's rather time wasting
Hear me out, what if I just left all my dinosaurs in one spot, and just lured someone there?
Imagine how shitty that would be.
Upvoting your own suggestion.
oof
Then if you die with one if your dinos and want to play a saved one you must wait 10 min.
Or reduce one's max dinos to 2
that doesnt stop the issue really
^ Not to mention, that just kills the pacing of the game
Why not just start a new life and get right back into playing the game?
revenge can happen anytime. it's not something that only happens automatically right after the incident
Dying is supposed to have consequences, said consequences get removed when you have lifesavers.
imagine the toxicity people would do with such mechanic
Or if you died with one dino then you must wait 20 min to start with the saved one, furthermore the saved dino would spawn randomly, far from the dead one's place
How about that
First of all, deleting all the previous stuff is super shady.
Second, it still has the issue of removing the risk of dying.
Dying is SUPPOSED to have consequences.
It wont remove the risk of dying cause you can have only one more dino and if you die with that then nothing remains
So, you have it ONCE per server?
This idea keeps fluctuating between 'utterly useless' and 'utterly broken'
mongyad el magyarul, lehet hogy tudok segítteni meg magyaránzi mindenki másnak
Na a lényeg hogy ha elérsz egy fullos dínót és máshoz van kedved vagy akarsz egy másik fullosat akkor át tudod csapatni magad valami mássá juvieba úgy, hogy az előző megmarad
ebben én is gondoltam már de az a probléma van vele hogy amikor megölsz valakit akkor ugyan az az eber vissza tud jönni mongyuk egy rex-el és így bosszút állt, tehát jó ötlet lenne de ez az egyetlen hiba vissza fogja hogy jó legyen
főleg hogy ha te egy rex voltál es sikerült egy triceratopszot megölnöd, nagyon gyenge leszel utána és nagyon konnyű lessz majd téged megölni
uh is non-english allowed in here..?
who knows
i just explained why multiple dinosaur saves on a single server wont be a good idea, as i noticed there was a slight language barrier earlier
One dinosaur per server is the standard. Other MMO's usually don't allow multiple characters for one profile on the same server because of scum tactics, so why should The Isle be any different?
We would prefer if you kept it to speaking English if you can.
yeah, i know
Just as a side note. But that was fine there^^
😌
Where did all the different language channels go?
Into the void I guess
People were using them for some unsavory things and it was a bit of a hassle to keep them
Aah ok
Throwing in my hat about character slots, it seems clear enough that it can work. You just need to make sure that logging into any of them means you can't log into the others until the timer runs down, and the swap timer only starts when you fully log out of that server.
That way, you can have more than one dino on a server, but no practical way whatsoever to try to lure people to an area or contrive a revenge kill unless both A: you log out for a full hour after dying, B: they stick around the same general area for an hour for you to do so, and C: you have a big dinosaur in the area. And also D: you get the drop on them in the first place.
It's not useless, since it means you can stock up on a couple different dinosaurs on your preferred server, but you can't exploit it. If you die, you respawn fresh using that character slot, or you take a break away from the game or on a different server. You can furthermore make it a one species per server deal, so you can't have three rexes waiting to go.
Is Utah healing 20+ minutes?
I mean it is too much
But Utahraptor should be by no means resistant
Yeah i'm feeling the effects of not being able to have character slots. I exclusively play on nublar servers (3 total) And i have dinos on 1 and 2 i use to play with my friend. That leaves me only server 3 which is a map i don't like playing on.
Really the only way i see it being abused is if you lure someone somewhere then quickly take the 45 sec log, go through the log screen, (maybe put a 45 sec lock on being able to select a dino) then attacking the lured player. And if you think about it can't it already be abused this way
Like through family share (in servers that allow it) or owning a second steam account with the game
@lethal shell use your arrow keys as you look around. It works after some practice
I use the WASD keys but its just annoying.
i thought i was tagged for a sec when i looked in here
Guess that means 2 of us is awesome.
Cerato’s bleed could use a slight boost from 8 to 10 but his bleed resist definitely needs to be changed back to at least close to the old one.
how would sleeping improve the game
it's just an invitation to afk through the night without having to worry about food/water
encouraging to afk is just bad game design honestly
people suggest impractical stuff all the time ngl lol
yeah true
better than poop suggestions lol
Mild diarrhea
what if apexes got mild diarrhea while they slept 🤔 🤔
Oh remember Maia milk
oh no i don't remember maia milk, do tell
Guy said dinosaurs are mammals
I think sleep would actually be a neat mechanic once the ecosystem is more fleshed out.
it would still encourage afk growing
Resting slows your survival bar rates while not messing with your sense, sleep slows them down even more in exchange for dimmed hearing and a filtered screen.
Yeah, but you can't fix that until you have reason to keep moving around.
IE, herbivores migrating to plant hotspots that spawn irrespective of their location. Carnivores following them.
if anything it could make you heal faster, but use up food/water faster in exchange
Maybe healing imposes increased food & water use inherently and sleep speeds up healing?
So, you get dinged up, you sleep to heal quicker, the survival bar mitigation still applies, and the cost is sort of a wash compared to still standing up?
Means it's a good idea to avoid getting hurt in the first place. Helps keep carnivores from constantly trying to eat each other even though it's hugely risky.
Same-size carnos, that is.
@simple mesa don't play on servers that have pay to win, don't give them players
plus I think you won't be able to just buy hypers
I hope they make it so hypers are still a rare thing to see (so disabling them in sandbox for example)
@umbral prairie were supposed to respond to feedback in #401464048610312195
oh ok
Yea
i know but, they just saying it donation to have life, it is like pay to win. donation is not required it should to be, but me I like also love playing non survival. that's why, why they keeping pay to have life or anything else and to have your dino you want. I playing few sever that have discord points system like that and free server. I support that server but some of them is very few player. I hope not only me will not support pay to win systerm i hope other player also. anyway thank for feedback.
for hypo, I just saying for now don't release it. because it is to early for the game. hypo is nice but not now.
And i think add hypo in dlc in the future. If they wany to pay for over power dino. Make it dlc.
I don't think the devs want money for hypers

But @simple mesa ur missing one very important point
Renting a server cost money
It may not be much every month
Smthing like 70-150 usd per month but it can be a fairly big amount if it adds up
Does he want it to be pay to win or does he not
No he doesn’t
confused
He wants free servers
And he doesn’t want hypo in normals
And suggested make hypo dlc
We should go to #401464048610312195 since were supposed to discuss this there
No it was in feedback
And make every dlc worth 20 dollars
Just go to isle discussion and we can still
Also this game really Won’t really be for children down the line I think
Ya......
It will @spiral pond
All the hypos and strains
And them humans with guns
It's for all audience tbh
Everyone loves dinosaurs

even the audience of screaming PTSD-afflicted children who made the mistake of going out at night with no or minimal NV equipment
especially the PTSD afflicted children
😂
I don't think it is intended as a game for children, but of course there will be children playing it
although the gory stuff and tribals killing and eating each other might be a bit much for kids
what
nooooo
are you telling me that Little Timmy wasn't the target audience of this sandbox survival horror game in progress

Considering how most of the community speaks, you'd have a hard time convincing me that most of them are not children already.
I just joined here and someone seriously thinks having people pay for Type-H dinosaurs is a good idea? Holy shit 
true i'm also one of the young ones here, 17, but maybe there are younger ones 👀
Trust me, there are
@barren zephyr
?
sorry im an idiot i wanted to tell you something but accidentally pressed enter
so tell me now? 
there! yeah, it's stupid to have to pay for hypos
Ahh, yes
Elaborate
Read up yourself?
Where am I reading
oh that, that would be neat
How would that be neat?
Twenty Type-H dinosaurs per server because people buy a DLC? What‘s the point of that exactly
hi
Uh, hello there?
lmao
it not dlc or other thing about hypo, again It just my opinion not to release the hypo this early access game, it is very over power dino for now. no one can kill it with our current dino in survival. even if they release it at sandbox the server user have a donate to live to change non survival dino hypo will appear at survival game. I am not against it but on what I see all video about hypo it is game destroyer for now. it is not my decision, it is my opinion. it up to developer.
if they not release it, because every player don't like it, that's be better I think for the future of the game.
All that extra detail on the corpse biting and that is too much work for something so small and pretty much pointless
@misty island
for the comment about the server that have pay to win policy. I just saying to be fair to all player children or not. it should be fair to all gamers. I just hoping this game not be other game die in the future because they losing players.
A better suggestion would be different foot marks
The dinos have like the same foot prints
😂
hahah
yea
@misty island i know how the server working. it is not free I know that. The thing I saying is the work donation should be donation without any exchange other thing (like dino), we (players) donate to servers because we love it. but not donate to have a lives then exchange to instant adult dino or over power dino. that's my point. we donate for server not to be advantage to other players.
@jovial blade just beacue you dont use ur brain doesnt me other dont enjoy using it
and hunting by tracks and traces is one of the big thing in any game involes tracking
so your "too much work for something so small and pretty much pointless" doesnt have a single point
No need to insult each over over a suggestion, as for the suggestion itself I personally have to disagree, it seems like a rather pointless addition that seems like it would be more hassle to implement than it is worth.
^
And wdym use my brain you literally want something so pointless and small
that would take heaps of work
I like the idea of more to tracking
Upvoting your own suggestion
ew
This can not?
There isn't a rule against it, but it is frowned upon.
Took the words right out of my mouth
ok
If you can't hunt a trike herd as a giga then go hunt something else
Giga's versatile and mobile
Well, what if I do not find anything else?
Oh well i guess, sometimes you die

well thats cool
