and harder to keep them alive
an carni apex used to be hard to keep alive
but than the devs overbuffed
the hunger need
not everyone, last updates when they incorporated the hunger buff on juvies and sub apexes there were alot who complained
We just need randomly spawned ai instead of "oh you are hungry lets spaw Some ai Next to you"
by not only reducing the food the apexes need
but also adding avas
and boom you broke the dam
imo pack limits
Utah: 6
Dillo: 6
Cera: 4
Allo: 3
Sucho: 2-3
Giga: 2
Rex: 1-2
"oh you are making it tedious and difficult again" they said
there is no need for any bigger packs than I just suggested
sucho doesn't need a pack limit it needs god
cera in its current state should defo not be 4 😛
why not?
its weaker than a dilo
It is currently tedious, is just braindead easy to afk and wait for ai
a bit of bleed res buff and that could be it's pack limit
and what will it add to have more than 4?
will it take on anything else?
no
it will still prey on the same stuff
just because he is weaker, doesn't mean the pack limit needs to be higher
sure what kind of pack limit would you put on herbies though
4 ceras can take an allo or a pair of allos
herds tend to be bigger than packs for the most part
I'm not sure about herbs because they mixpack
so there's not really any limits
i think packs should be naturally limited in size
cuz of food issues or the like
its more fun that way
why not? does it make it sense to have 20 allos at once in a pack?
people aren't always the brighest if you let them decide for themselves
seeing how big your pack can be and still survive
then we have the ai problem again
they just made it too easy right now
that is close enough to a megapack
allowing packs to have no limit
that's the first thing that needs to be fixed in the line
pack limits only after ai changes
and megapacks are about the worst thing one could have
yes, by changing the way ai spawn
the solution is pretty simple tbh, the execution tho
only because they fucked up the ai
maybe the affinity system will dictate how many dinos of your kind can you have in your group
37 dilos is rare and not that big of a problen
37 allos then
seeing as a lot of dinos can straight up one shot dilos
37 allos should be insanely hard to keep fed
37 dilos attacking at once
maybe not right now
it isn't atm
just think about it
u just spawn 37 ai
that would be a lot of friendly fire @grand brook
ai should spawn around areas, not near players
^
ye thats an option
for several reasons
also just plain less ai
but
or maybe not depending on how they do it
not really
much like bushes bound herbies to areas
as long as you make it work like herby bushes
have areas through out the map, near water sources that ai can spawn
a lot of places dont allow for a big herby pack to stick around
that way you can jump from one place to another
also bushes are technically everywhere but they are very limited in a lot of spots
not be bound by it, and avoid constant camping
it would also give carnis a reason to contest each other over certain ai spots
and with the changes in herbivore diet you will see herbies sticking to certain biomes
correct
herbies only nest in the big bush zones
that's it
so yeah carnivores would still roam in search of larger prey
and in fact they would roam more as they would not depend on ai
would also make it easier to find prey/ a fight
because atm a lot of people just camp in a corner of the map
making it really hard to find people unless you camp the water spot they are using
cough twins cough
ye and some water spots like twins are so big its hard to catch em
lazy river is an amazing spot for herbies to grow
corner of the map and lots of food
garantueed succes
I found a new pond between titan and the great falls
ive grown trikes there even on a 200 pop server without hearing as much as a shout
Where I.encountered a lot of herbs last weekend
The worst aspect of the JW franchise so far incorporated to a game with already plenty of crazy shit? Nah man, hybrids are a bit unnecesary
I like jp and jw but pls dont mix It with ti
Is like saying i want blaster for mercs because i like star wars
@velvet elk ignoring all other arguments against hybrids for a second, lets say the devs are on board for this idea. Cool, there's a fair roster of playable dinosaurs right? I can't remember the exact number and there are new additions coming e.g ptera and stego to the survival roster but lets say for examples sake there is 20. So 20 base animals that can be hybridized with the 19 others right?
This would mean the devs would have to model 380 models total to accommodate this hybrid system, and then you also have to balance all 380 animals.
and then each hybrid would need its own sound set right?
^ not to mention all the balance issues
the isles got its strains, that's the closest you're gonna get to genetic freaks
its a cool idea just not viable in this circumstance basically
thats unfortunate but you posted a suggestion and opened yourself up to criticism, im sorry that you feel downtrodden and i understand why you would feel so, but unfortunately thats how stuff like this works. it sucks but thats how it is
Take the criticism and use it to improve.
This is a democracy, we're not here to like every idea, there's plenty of other people that get downvoted for suggestions
@velvet elk please, at this point ur just asking for downvotes. If u have a suggestion, you put effort in making your point known.Which pterasaur and which sauropod do you want to see, why do you want to see them, what purpose will they serve and how will they be different from the other creatures that are currently in game or are planned to be added
Not sure why hybirds are needed whatsoever
We already have normal dinosaurs and multiple strands of mutated animals.
Drawasaurus you seem completely oblivious about whats going on, omnivores has been Sort of unconfirmend, spino will get swim buff but not until remodeled due to sandbox exclusive dinos been irrelevant. Pteranodont has been confirmed playable and brachio too as an ai
And this game is definitely not following scientific studies about most of their dinosaurs, since you know, giant jaw splitting Giganotosaurus, jellyfish looking spino with EMP attacks
So asking for accuracy and any scientific studies following will be completely ignored
If it doesn't affect the game in any way
Hypos are out of question about realism talks, we could perfectly have full realistic dinos and hypos in the same game. Im not a realism boy but if you are gonna talk use actuall arguments like the fact that utahs dont jump
We can have realism in this game
But we won't, because that's not what the game is about, if someone wants accuracy in a dinosaur game Saurian exists
regular dinos should still be somewhat grounded in reality imo, but gameplay takes priority. And omnivores would just be ez mode
They go on and off from realisim
Most of the realism is broken once humans, mutants and monsters are introduced into the same game
They got giga and allo pretty realistic
They got the weight right
And looks
So I think they like bit of both
giga's turn radius is pretty bad in terms of realism
Realisim but balancing
Anatomically they are correct
But still have a lot of liberty taken into account
Whether some animals are accurate or not depends on the developer's tastes. Some animals look cool while still being accurate, others...not so much.
Lol I wasnt around for that
Utah looks a lot like JP raptors along with the Rex looking like JP's and now the new spino looks like the JP spino
I hate that tbh
I don't
I never thought the new spino looks like the jp spino.
It doesn't
depends on which head they go for
The snout is very reminiscent of it
He looks far more intiminating. \
Head A at least
if they go for the chunky head, then it's JP3
but if they go for notch head, than it's realistic-ish
Also jp spino has a puny sail and I think even longer legs?
ye
The sail is different pretty much it
regardless TI spino is pretty far from JP3
I like the jp rex and raptor-ish. But I don't really like jp's spino design.
TI designs are pretty much JP with corrected anatomy
Change my mind
Rex too
JP Rex has a more bulky looking skull
Yeah that
But the similarities are there
Packy is also a little reminiscent of JP's Packy in some ways
Pachy is super thicc
pachy just looks like pachy
not much wiggle room there
Yeah
I wouldn't say all the designs, most bare no resemblance to jp /jw
Allo, Carno, and Sucho for example
I mean, you posted a suggestion. People didn't like it.
👀
You are opening yourself to criticism.
Guy you just propose either things people dont want, things that has been said no by devs or confirmed things
- Do not provoke, or continue a "flame war" (ex. If someone were to insult you, instead of replying you should inform a moderator)
Chill. Everyone
👀 🍵
But you better
@feral wedge help
Excuse me?
It seems having an opinion makes you a bad guy
Bye
- Chuckles*
I'm in danger
this is the good tea
Well now that that’s over, Jaffad, you’re suggestion about the biomes you posted days ago, I like it
I never got around to voicing my opinions
I mean, ya kinda did. We were talking while I was brainstorming
but thank ya, any criticisms?
Nah it’s good; I’m not a fan of the biomes you put in but that doesn’t mean they wouldn’t be a good fit
Also they would add diversity
id take any biome honestly
which the isle needs
i cant see the same pine trees anymore
@ionic comet You need to offer some kind of proposed solution.
Like, should it be made FASTER, more health, damage?
Damage
Okaaay, how much?
I'd probably wait for the new combat
Buffing stuff rn or nerfing wouldnt be wise
Because we don't know how well they will perform in new combat. They might be strong or weaker in it so I'd wait before having those suggestions
"giga is an apex"
So is rex
Yet rex is actually killable for midtier packs
Apex doesn't necessarily mean be invincible
Apexes should be killable to keep the ecosystem in check. And giga fucks up literally everything below it. It shouldnt do that
To the giga thing, apexes are stronger they are afterall giants and can deal incredible damage and their health is very high as to be expected, that doesn't mean however they are invincible. A lion is very strong, yet a clan of hyenas can tear it to pieces if bold enough, a tiger is argueably even stronger on it's own and yet if a herd of buffalos gets pissed they'll send it's ass flying. What I'm trying to say is this is survival, no animal is a 100% safe, welcome to the jungle
And to the maia suggestion, it may look weird but it literally is the only way hadrosaurs could run, if they ran at all fours they would break their arms. Hell that's the reason they have a giant stiff tail in the first place to balance the animal and steer it's running
the shants run on all 4s...
This game doesnt aim for realism, but hadrosaurs like Maia did run on 2 so idk why you complain
and they are hadrasaurs that are way heavier
because they look stupid
I love maias but I hate playing them because they look goofy and stupid when they run
also, I am pretty sure the game does aim for realism ==
=/
Para is heavier and run on 2 in fact Maia is a small hadrosaur
paraa bodies arnt like a straight horizontal line
And no, this game doesnt aim for realism thats why our utah looks nothing like utah
how tf do u know what a Utah looks like? only thing it is missing is the feathers... which is a thing in the future
what about the fact that shants run on all fours changes the fact that hadrosaurs ran on 2?
And talking about realism, shantu running the way It runs being as heavy as a sauropod would break its front legg
the shant's animations are outdated at best
not necessarily... u dont know how strong their legs where, and they where mostly back heavy too
, first utah had feathers second utah skeleton structure is nothing like our utah, real utah is robust
Guy shant litteraly puts all its weight on its front leggs during run It will break it
they call it utah because of the size, in everything else it's a more anatomically correct JP raptor
it's just a game and everything need to be balanced
so what will happend if the humans come in
I have seen an actual paleontologist say the Utah in this game was accurate =/
then what will we be complaining about
wut?
Utah in this game is the less accurate dino
and? what the hell has to do with what we are discussing?
We are discussing if the game is reallistic or not, not if It should be
haha.. so it's just about the balancing , dont have to do with reality
you can make the Trex fly
wtf r u going on about?
the thing is, it needs to be somewhat grounded
if this game makes the rex fly, I am quitting it
wait @brazen wolf are you talking about the giga thing?
no we talking about realism
it's all similar topic
No
not at all
We are just talking about if the game is reallistic or not, is not a balance vs realism disscusion
why not with realism there is no balancing
ok so balancing to you means an untouchable giga?
that is just a load of bs raptor =/
giga is mortal
Uncle seriously you read anything i write?
and?
it's just it's harder
tf u mean all herbis where slower?
it's Apex bro
Ha, giga is inmortal to non apexes
and?
u can't honestly tell me you think a rex could outrun a galli
what do you expect from 7 hour growth
6,5 hours
Idk, neither rex nor trike are inmortal
trike is pretty mortal
nobody said anything was immortal dude
rex too if under the right conditions
no
they just get bullied by dillo
alt needs to be removed imo
Alt will stay forever
it is temporary
Allo need bleed nurf
dude did your giga get killed by dilos?
deves have said it themselves
Confirmed by devs
yes multiple time
alt is a temporary solution to ass riding
Alt is staying
need to get some bites and let it bleed
not for long
For ever
will most likely be gone after the recode
i got kill by rex
Alt turn will be staying mate
killed by allo
Seriously ask on #401464048610312195
well yeah, for all it's perks apex growth is hard and it needs to be
They've said theyre getting rid of the option to disable it
you just want to grow 2 hour dillo and kill all the Apex
not really, one bite and that dilo is gone
how do you feel about a guygrowing 6 hour dino harder
Raptor stop saying thing we never said
it's very weak outside of it's bleed
If they are good enought why not? Rex and trike can actually die to them
They are called Apex for a reason
takes 6 hours
if you find them in that 6 hours
you could easily kill em
Apexes because they are the strongest not inmortal, for inmortal we have hypos
You dont think about killing a sub
you guys are happy
but that sub takes 4 hours
to grow
Nobody said they die easy, It just that is posible they die
then when adult you cry about not being able to fight it
coz they are op
alt and bull shit
I primarly play trike, i know what is a long and shitty grow
Trike is worse
Giga is killed by rex cause it kills everything else super easiy
Ha, giga can run away, what can trike do vs rex
alone?
*easily
Trike need buff
but that's different topic
i main giga
so got to diefencd what it currently have
there is too less giga players
Is not like ai spawn just at your side when you are hungry its not different from a bush
but rex comes to check it out
^
and they will kill you because you are a future threat
how does that feel for 6 hours
predators do that
growing in bush
Trike cant move without whole the map noticibg it
trike have herds
Giga has packs
no they are not
And no, actually trikes rarelly has herbs is just thet the ones you see is because they are in herbs if not they are hidden
they slow
by that logic dibbles are going extinct because they aren't usually common
well let giga keep it's alt turn
the thing is giga is not fast
and you can run away
you choose to fight it
so you die . why cry
and be an almost untouchable midtier nightmare? Pass
haha ... midtier can run away easy
Giga has twice the Rex stam and rex is a fucking loud battleship if It gets to you sorry, you deserved it
trike?
Giga is about endurance
rex is super fast
it's slower?
Actually giga is the most capable apex at moving
but need to land the bite
it's slower then rex
and it's hard to trot and catch prey
Rex run only 30 sec and its ambush is 5(with momentum is even less) is easy to run away
if you carch them by surprise they aren't
the tracking system dont work half of the time
You say you main giga but you seem you dont know how is It played
I have even tested, Rex has to stay 20 meter from a giga to catch it, 20 metters is nothing
Giga runs at 30, Rex at 33 they are almost the same speed
What the hell is that formatting.
well there is alot of rex player right now then giga players
i would choose rex too but dont like it's style
of fightin
what you play legendary
Rex?
Only played Rex once, never again
Im on logic and balance side
Im not a biased bitch that only wants its dino to be good
Once skilled gigas startes decimating herds
And doing good in tournaments
Theres gigas every where now
Giga just isnt played like rex
Combat in general
And a rex fight is the worst
Nah
Giga is fun
Bleeding stuff is fun
Vs rex its interesting
I try not get bit once
I bait out the ambush and make it turn and I abuse that
the thng Good Giga player does if it sees Rex is Run now
Bleed dont work While Rex is faster and is on you ass
with 1 or 2 hit bone break giga is a dead meat
That's why I avoid getting bit lol
Just keep distance
I'll stay in ambush most of fight
And if rex gets close I trot back to my safe distance
To where I can sprint away if he ambushes me
Seriously uncle i cant stand anymore It is burning my brain cells, if you so sincerely think that giga is fine and Rex is too fast ask in #401464048610312195 they will argue with you if you are right or wrong
Wait are you suggesting that giga shoudn’t be vulnerable to small,mid and apex tiers Uncleraptor ?
That’s some bullshit right there
And thinks Rex are un scapable
i just dont wantgiga to get nrfed anymore
Arent games supposed to be balanced?
Alt turn makes it invincible to anything that isn’t a Rex
I would rather the sub and juv stage to get speed buff instead of adult
Its not invincible
People consider
giga top 3, a bit nerf wont hurt it
you just too bad to play dillo
I see you go from meta Dino n.1 to meta Dino n.2
a pak of dillo can easily kill giga
Lol giga isnt invisible
You wish
Its just very hard to kill
With that hitbox
Not really
well what do you expect grown one hour dino and kill 6 hour dino?
Cause it will just shrug it off
they suppose to be hard
Unless you expect cera pack to donit
it's not a free meal
Hard =/= almost imposible
In the process
Do you expect a 6 hour Dino to win to a pack of 3 hour Dino’s in group of ten which is 30 hours ?
Lol yes
well what do you want you want to grow 2 hour dillo form a pack
They're individually half the ammount it took
and kill all the Apex in the server?
Mini
A pack of say 4 allos should fuck up a giga
We just want giga to be killable in the same lvl a Rex is
Because together it's more hours
Giga is in point where it 3 shots trike with bleed and 1 shots all midtiers
Mini, Nines seriously bring this convo to #401464048610312195 , let the guys show him the truth
Yea because 100 dryos should beat giga
Because more hours together
You got the math right
Yeah thats why im telling you tonlet the guys Talk for you
Ok
😂
Go
They do
They do
Maybe because you're god awful
They get 1 shot
No they dont wtf
They do. Because giga's fuckin untouchable and 1 shots them all
Rex doesnt even 1 shot sucho
Yes they do
Ok should we call an admin?
"1 shot"
If you have 10 suchos and you can't beat a single giga I'm sorry that you're that bad
Yeah you will losse some suchos in the fight
Giga can spin like a goddamn beyblade and kill them easily
Yeah if you're aren't coordinated at all
If you're fighting like headless chickens
It also comes down to player skill
I've seen 6 allos beat a giga
And only 2 allos died
They coordinated really well
But it depends if you're using vc
i mean, like one dilo can kill a rex if you're good enough
And calling attacks
This conversation is being continued in #401464048610312195 feel free to go there
You chose to go there
Not sure why
But I've put my points
So no point repeating
Because there are people who actually have time to repeat every thing to you
"100 dryos should win" I mean...a 100 rats could devour a tiger alive if they were coordinated
Actually I’d believe that
do you know how much is a 100 small creatures?
Those rats in plague tale: innocence are hella scary
that's legit a swarm
well anyway, the giga is the midtiers nightmare and it should be kept that way, but it shouldn't be invincible to it's own prey
cape buffalos die to lions, yet a buffalo will gore it if it defends itself
It will still kill its prey even if you nerf its alt turn to absolute garbage
It should have decent alt turn, but not like what it has currently
It has no need for the alt turn speed it has now
I agree
They act like if we want giga useles but we dont
cape buffalos win against lions 1v1 so thats a bad argument
alt turn should be based on the size and weight of the animal
you can already sort of see it with the trike and rex where it actually is slower than in smaller dinos
because they are tanks
swim speed...well i'm not sure about that one i don't usually swim as a trike
i mean yeah but i dont see any reason to make their swim speed one centimeter an hour
sure maybe they could buff it's swimming speed I guess
im gonna suggest that actually
makes crossing water a nightmare and its not like it swimming a bit faster breaks anything
but it's not really an aquatic dinosaur, sure maybe in the future it may require mudbaths to up it's affinity
but otherwise they are basically land creatures
what I don't get is why the giga swims fast
anyways the gigas alt turn should be similar to the one of the other apexes, is a multiton animal it's going to take an effort to turn around
“Cause it needs to catch suchos in water”
imo all the swimming species should be faster than they are
because of pred bias
its dumb they're no faster than non aquatics mostly
you cannot have a giant dino turning around faster than a diablo wich is smaller and quadrupedal
I think that someone should make a meme out of giga and ballerina
yeah quadrupeds should get better turning automatically
diablo is kind of a bad example though, it's walking turning speed is marvelous
it can turn mid run without stoping
sucho should be faster than a giga on water it's a no brainer
@night mountain you have my attention 
The multiple trike buffing suggestions is lovely to see <3
giga is not hard to grow stop acting like a crybaby with that suggestion most gigas i been with always grow their "hard to grow" when low players are on and ai becomes so fucking retarded and easy it spawns inside your fatass sub giga that afks and watches anime instead of actively playing the game.
sorry for being toxic 😇
giga is not hard to grow, it's just not fun
but since you can afk your way up to adult
the shitty juvie/sub stages don't really matter
It's literally the least fun thing to grow
Its along side the sucho on fun level
To grow
It has no good gameplay
People literally afk grow gigas
Rex atleast is fast as a juv, the sub is all round good and does really well making growing fun
@barren zephyr
@stray cloak
could be abused by taking bites out of pack members to keep from starving
I have a question so how can i get food easier than finding ai or player bcus my smell only goes so far and its such a largge map
You really just have to be on the move and listen
Don't rely on smell, rely on hearing
^
a good headset is actually a huge advantage because you can locate sounds much better
@burnt fern emphasis on small amount it should be enough that it helps stave off hunger for longer fights, but not enough that you could make any real progress towards survival by nibbling party members.
Could also give less when biting a fellow carnivore and next to nothing when biting the same species
BOB Did everything man
;_;
I suggested vulture sounds for pteradon
and apparently they did that already

@spiral ravine #401464048610312195 if it isn’t a suggestion
I like the idea, as I feel it forces players to actually build good combat skills.
I have a suggestion, more content almost june and nothing. Oh and quit teasing everyone by playing dinos not yet in the game. Many bad reviews.
1.) Recode
2.) they play them to show them off and get people interested and show what's to come
3.) half the bad reviews are from people who are assholes and don't understand jack shit about balance, game development, or treating people like fellow human beings. Those people talk shit on the devs constantly and then get pissy and whiney when the devs defend themselves
If you'd like to take a game with gum and popsicle stick code and turn that into concrete to make the game playable with, what, one other person? then be my guest mate.
but until you've done that, don't beg for content that cant come yet until the recode is done
No content added for months
Doesn't bother to check steam news or the announcements on this fucking server which explains why there's no content
@cobalt summit You do understand acro was a massive creature, about 5 and a half tons in game if he were to be properly balanced? He was 38 feet long and 6 and a half tons maximum, seven if I am being generous. He really should have upwards of 400-500 damage, weigh 5.5 tons, and 25-30 bleed. The fact you want to give acro 150 damage is absolutely ludicrous.
Plus he needs a stam increase, since he will be downsized and so would his speed, which would give him Ceratosaurus Rex syndrome.
To give it so much damage and weight would be to increase its growth time and make it fill a different niche than it does now. If we're talking realism, Rex should do upwards of 35k N damage with each bite, but that would be absolutely absurd. A giga shouldn't be able to run faster than 31KmH, but that would also be ridiculous. Game balance is as important to consider as realism.
Why are you giving it less damage than a Utah, though?
Its current stamina is what makes it such a subject of complaint from mid-tiers, and given how much ground it can cover with each sprint, a stamina decrease won't affect it too negatively, especially if it were to regenerate faster.
You have to understand acro's model is oversized and needs to be shrunken considerably, somewhere between rex and sucho size. Thus, his speed would dramatically decease
Think old cerato speed but just a bitfaster
He won't be getting anywhere with the stam he has right now after he is resized
Weight must always be taken into consideration. An animal weighing nearly 5 tons will hurt nearly anything it bites even with a small bite force, and to give it as much bleed as I think it should have while keeping its current bite force would be too much for something that is deliberately not an apex.
It's already 4.79. Tons. Giving it at least 5 tons would not hurt it very much.
That's an option I listed in my recommendations, as you'll see
It has 250 damage right now. You know this, right? It has less damage than a cerato.
A spinosaurus has the same.
And it can battle against rexes and gigas because it has 8 tons on it, in game
Don't compare acro to an apex
This isn't anything new, really. And with that much bleed it's not an unreasonable ask. Acro isn't meant to battle rexes and gigas.
Neither are allos, utahs, carnos, ceratos, dilos, suchos, but they try, anyway
And some succeed
If properly balanced, a pack of 3 would give a rex a run for its money.
And acro does not need that much bleed. 30 is fine right now.
Drawing on what an acro was to make it a more interesting dino to play, and given that it definitely had shit for bite force — maybe, like allo, even less than a lion — I think making it a bleed machine is the best way forward. It's not realistic to make acro a brawler, given its jaw and teeth type, so to compensate for the bleed it should have, it shouldn't bite so hard.
But look how big acro is. It's a heavy boi, it's a tank.
It should be at least 5 tons, maybe 350, 400 damage if I am generous.
It has 25 bleed right now, which is very generous for its size.
And allo already holds that sort of middle ground between relying on bleed and relying on bite. Alberto will rely on bite and hopefully be something of a brawler. So, to keep Acro a dinosaur that's less than 4.5 hours max of growth time, it can't be OP. And it's not meant to bite hard. Its jaws are even less optimized for biting than allo.
Then give it upwards of 30 bleed or something, 350 damage
Don't give it 150 damage.
It has plenty of teeth to shear off flesh.
Being big doesn't make something a tank, necessarily. You can't facetank with everything over 5 tons and you shouldn't. Having a large carnivore that relies on bleed instead of bite, as the acro surely did, is a more nuanced and novel concept to implement with current gameplay. Letting it keep 250N of damage, if we're increasing its bleed to a more appropriate amount for its size (having less than Dilo and the same as Allo doesn't suit the Acro), is too powerful for a dinosaur that takes four hours to grow.
The changes you're suggesting would necessitate a longer growth time, and if you get any longer than 4.5 hours, the acro loses its appeal and its niche.
When its size is refitted to a proper scale, you're right -- its stamina shouldn't decrease, and perhaps its running animations need to change to account for the fact that it's not as heavy as it looks at its current size. Constant speed, whether trotting or running, is a critical part of acro's identity.
Honestly, it could use more damage. I think 300 would be decent, maybe 35 bleed
Again, that makes it too much of an in-the-middle. Acro is a hardline bleeder, judging from jaw shape and teeth type, and 300N and 35 bleed wouldn't reflect that. It's merely "just above average" on everything, instead of specializing.
my real issue with acro stats right now is their speed. they one shot things that can't hope to run away
at that size, they should either be slower or be subject to turn radius issues
I mean if we're gonna talk about unfair turn radius let's look at spino lmao
otherwise something like that would more than likely break a leg or fall or both
can't really use non-survival as a standard to compare stats
should be compared against allos, rexes, ceratos, gigas, etc
When acro is resized, it won't be so OP, and given how short its ambush is, it needs that speed to escape something like a giga that has 20 entire seconds more in a sprint and a comparable trotting speed.
imo, it should be just a bit slower than allo
If it were slower than allo it would be a terrible dino. Its resized speeds will already be a huge blow
Allos, remember, have three minutes and thirty seconds of stamina
reminder that acro and spinosaurus arent balanced for survival or at all for that matter
Which is one of the longest in the game
They havent been touched for a good year now.
it either needs a speed nerf to be comparable to allo, or a turn radius nerf like carno
Since acro isn't meant to be a brawler, a running turn nerf makes sense
giving it speed and turn is just making it a utah that 1 shots other dinos
But remember that if too much is nerfed it will become giga or rex food in a matter of seconds, and be especially targeted because it's so large and will give a lot of food
I mean, all I see here is just the exact reason why Acro is being made ai, Too similar to Giga and allo, and has a very rough spot to fit between.
And even then, could just fit Acro between Giga and Rex on terms of speed, and give it a higher stamina value, doesn't need to be faster than something like an Allosaurus to be a viable playing option
Even though it wont be Unless playing sandbox
i mean, from what i'm aware, it seems like it fits as a dino between an allo and rex with speeds slightly over giga but under allo
i mean for rebalanced stats
The gap is way to small without turning acro into another asthma suffering animal
in it's current state, it's faster than dilo and pachy
Putting it between rex and giga allows it to have an actual stamina pool
giving it a poor turn radius to go with a higher speed makes sense both game balance wise and with what we know about real biology
something that size would likely break it's leg trying to turn while running fast i mean
Good thing this game isnt realistic centered
Or animals like rex or giga wouldnt be full on sprinting
yeah, but in that case, that bit of realism also works for balance
most of these things could at the very least run, but the bigger ones couldn't turn very well while doing so
But it also hurts the animal at the same time, if it has a terrible turn radius, barely faster than rex, similar stamina, how exactly is it going to out maneuver a rex
i mean if it is left with a speed above an allo
same way a carno would do it essentially
though wiht better turning than a carno
Yeah, that just sounds like a mess of balance if you ask me
not saying make it slow and unable to turn
i'm saying at that size, it should take a loss in one of those
i agree
Fit it between rex and giga, give it a decent stamina pool
but i know some people like their speed demons
so i was giving 2 options that could work
They have Carnotaurus, Utah, and Galli for thay
Large predator and speed demon should honestly stay away from one another
they can work in theory, but only if the large pred can't turn well
i still think slower would be better for acro
even as an ai
why tf do you want cloacas
nasty
who wants to look at their dinos ass hole whenever they pan up
"""realism"""
Coacas... assholes.... one of these things is not like the other
please understand the difference
it could save your life
i know what a cloaca is tyvm
Rip saurapelta suggestion
When you find out how many players in the community want Dino assholes and the ability to have diarrhea if you stand for too long in one spot 
mild diarrhea
wat?!
Mega hershy squirts
But for real, adding a Dinosaur’s ass in would add 1% realism and 99% people having naughty dinosaur “mating role play”

oh god oh no
.... you know what i'm not going to ask. i'll be going back to my hw now
good choice
^
keep your dino cloacas to your deviantart accts
Plus I don’t think the devs would want to be known for animating dinosaur assholes

imagine being told to go back and add an asshole to every model
Can people just not with these weird suggestions
Saurapelta suggestion lost to the ethers
one guy suggested Maia milk
i think its a cool dino tbh
something that attacks with its sides instead of front or back would be decently unique
remember the fire breathing para suggestion
No I wasn’t there for it
That dino looks cool but I feel itd be like a really crappy anky
Would maia milk come from its cloaca

if they ever do "reskins" where they add subspecies based on existing rigs it'd be a neat edition
oh jesus no
If modding comes back I imagine someone could edit the model to be that
I don’t think the devs would even want to add an animation for laying an egg so I’m unsure if adding milk would be a good idea
yea mods can solve a ton of the desires for subspecies
bruh the maia milk suggestion killed me
the last suggestion physically hurts
it hurts almost as much as Trike's current status as an apex and need of a buff
Not as much as the overpopulation of apexes in general
oh most certainly
ah yes can't have maia milk without maia nipples
@cobalt summit I don't think player based ai should be a thing, it should be something that spawns in certain areas, afterall they are supossed to be animals that live on the map just like you are.
You know.. Maybe Ai should be Spawning in Every single place on all Kinds of Dinos in general... In cerian areas.. and you know be a pack of them.. and Not be focused on hunger.. but they still make noises..
cause the island is not very lively..
lag
Yeah it really isnt
@keen trail that would get abused so much though. you're getting hunted? go afk mode as a new form of food denial, more annoyingform of battle logging
invisible is impossible as a suggestion aswell.
No there a timer on it so you can’t
It would get hyper abused, and if there is a timer why not just wait for the logout or take your chances
in a survival game it makes more sense for you to be on edge, if you're willing to commit 6 hours for an apex you can commit 60 seconds to safely log out and get back in
Well I said why in the message did you not read it all?
"What it could do is just make you invisible and so that you can’t die and you have to be sitting down to use it. But you cannot move while using it."
so a rest that makes you invincible or invisible
so gigas can camp out populations and then stand up to murder something.
out of the blue.
Is it really that hard to wait 60s to log out?
Gotta go afk? log out
Otherwise
Getting hunted? go afk mode
Having a hard time getting back into a server? Maybe a que would help more.
I agree on the que
being que'd up would be a nice touch up to that with a timer rather than fingers crossing on if i get in on that 99/100 server
I agree. Having a guaranteed seat in line appeals to me much more than trying to win the lottery
opinions on sucho discussion?
How do we fix the Sucho.
I assumed making them mostly water based and being able to eat water corpses would prevent food deniers aswell as give them a reason to hang out at the beach
I understand that just means that now Sucho's can food abuse or camp out entire bodies of water unopposed
but currently i rarely see them so a little edge wouldn't be too bad
I personally think sucho is fine, and that players are not leveraging it's strengths.
It's got the speed/stam to get away from apex's (granted rex doesn't get too close....It's a walking billboard) It's strong enough to slaughter mids
That's just because ppl would rather invest 2 more hours of growth and be a giga
mm whats the growth rate for one?
sucho doesn't have the water mechanics that ppl desperately want
sucho was never ready for survival
If they're wanting to setup that large water crossing for the spino integration
If you play sucho as a land based creature. It's fine.
they'll need to balance the sucho too
It bullies mids and can escape threats.
Granted, allo does the same job and takes less time
I think the water aspect is something they're working on and they'll get it down by then.
and has a much easier time killing solo apex's with group play
but, for now being able to camp out waterholes would benefit it more
So why play sucho when you can be an allo(less time, or a giga(slightly more time)
See thats the thing, my allo group ran up on two sucho's and slaughtered them outright.
No, camping water as a sucho just means you're gonna die
Sucho's are stronger then allo
you're gonna die but if you let the sucho not lose stam while idling in water
anad I hate to say it, but those were probably not great sucho players
giga's rexes etc.. aren't gonna swim out to the middle of the lake to try and take one on
Yes. Use up all of your stam in the water, so that when you do come to land they can just trot you down.
also maybe not, like we lost one allo in the confrontation and i know for a fact they could outdo us since they have better bleed resist and damage than we have
yeah i just think thats a safe enough defense.
raptors can get on top of boxes, sucho's could sit in the middle of a lake
No. Water suchos run into the water and get motorboated down by apex's.
Future mechanics will help sucho for sure
how would they get motorboated down?
but as it stands, semi-aquatic gameplay is dumb
When an apex ambushes into the water chasing after a sucho they are much faster.
Sucho's got double swim speed though right?
Or they can simply walk along the perimeter of the lake and wait for the sucho to come to land and kill it.
it's swim speed means jack right now
they can walk the perimiter but they can't get around an entire body of water faster than someone that crosses it
They sure as shit can
depends on the water
Not really
I've trotted down suchos at titan trying that
then how would you fix them
Like I said, semi-aquatic gameplay isn't viable until we get new mechanics.
with whats currently had then.
Land suchos are viable, but everyone just refuses to do that for whatever reason
Play like a land sucho and keep your eyes peeled for apex's
Boom. You have a viable sucho.
Boom. You have a viable sucho.
eh debatable but again it just needs somethin'
as for the nursery thing I think just notating what dinosaur you have or if you have a dinosaur on a server would be helpful.
unofficial servers are nice but forgetting or remembering if you have something active on there would be good
@glossy tangle the bite force stat just shows the damage that dino deals per hit
also the one shown is the headbutt attack, it has way less damage than the stomp
plus it weighs a lot and therefore actually deals more than 250 damage to every playable carnivore
@dreamy portal What about the dibbles and trikes chasing an allo group? What's the problem with it?
it was in regards to trikes being able to mix pack
where as other apexes have to stick to their own species
what is so bad about them being able to mixpack
rex has shit for stam and depending on the numbers is dead in the water
nothing is bad.
It's how they can balance.
Trikes are strong, especially in numbers and they can team up with herbs without reprecussions
i saw 7 allo's trying to take on 1 trike with assistance from a maia
the trike eventually bled to death but another trike came to assist and the maia harassed any sitters
maia and the trike died but only 1 allo made it out
Well trike is also the weakest and slowest apex on survoval anyway
but it's got more stamina
it's better at chasing down over long distances
rex won't survive a pursuit
Rex face tanks that shit
especially if it's bleeding, has a broken leg or is one way or the other. I've constnatly seen rexes get mowed down by trike groups
Giga is way better at long distances
Ive literally stood in front of a hostile trike as a rex and bit it to death
Its sad
1 on 1 yeah you're gonna have trouble
thats why most trikes aren't alone
and as stated before most trikes aren't by themselves with just trikes
Of course they arent
They are hardly viable to be alone when the other two apexes destroy it
and thats why they get to mix pack with other herbs
Yep
Balance around being forced to group is shit game design
It is
lol what
Its literally relying on other players to be playing at the same time
For something in apex tier thats just sad
yeah apexes should be viable when solo
but I'd be ok if things like utah are mainly designed to be played in packs
Everyone should be viable solo, even utah and dilo currently are viable solo they are just harder
Trikes are viable solo just not against rexes point blank
but of course they should be able to survive solo as well
Or any giga who isnt utter trash
even then i've heard the argument of "outplayed"
trying to state that Teaming up in a game that encourages grouping and survival is a negative is a bit obtuse
Teamimg up isnt a negative but not being viable for your tier bracket in a solo encounter is
Of course grouping should be encouraged, but not forced
^
you're a little tank with high damage high bleed and high stam
with a really good turn radius
Even dilos can live solo, they just have to pick smaller prey
And shit speed, unable to opt out of a fight, gets face tanked by rex
I think trike will get an indirect buff with locational damage and dino collision though, since it will probably be next to impossible to kill it from the front, and with dino collision you won't be able to run through it. Most dinos will probably need rebalanced stats because of these things though
Besides it'll be when the spino comes out you'll have something to really worry about.
since they'll have high health, high bleed resist
I certainly hope so, not holding my expectations high though lol
Also hope those horns can be used in a charge
Ah yes another carni apex to pick on trike 👌 👌 👌
it's almost like to survive you should team up with other trikes
Its almost like rexes and gigas team up too
with their own species
when stego comes out
who do you think's gonna hang with the trikes
Thats when stego comes out
yeah and that other apex carni that is gonna pick on trike is also "when it comes out"
I don't know what to think about a charge tbh, I think just a short 'speed boost' or ram while sprinting would be enough (also some impaling when running without using the speed boost, just not as much damage because you are slower), not a button to load up a charge like in ark
Yea a ram is what i was thinking, would be nice to see things like trike dibble and pachy being able to do that
I don't get what all of these exact stat suggestions are for though, they already have a new system for health,stam,bleed and bb finalized and locational damage, grabbing live prey and dino collision will make combat way different anyway and most things will have different stats
and I don't see them changing the stats before the recode
Same, i dearly hope trike is made truly viable for its tier with the recode though
If they are powerful enough to stand up to the other apexes they wouldnt need to pad themselves with mid tier herdmates like dibble and maia
yeah trikes should not be food for solo apexes, even a rex should only be able to kill one if it surprises the trike and gets multiple good hits in on the body or some hits on the neck
and since ambushing rexes will be loud af
it will be hard to get close to the trike without it noticing
they pad with mid tier herbmates because dibbles break bones and are faster sprinters, they're attack dogs for trikes to gore
Would be perfectly fine personnaly if trike could only herd with eachother and low tiers (it is typically viewed as a sort of 'guardian' figure) and not mid tiers as long as it was viable
Ok since when does dibble have bb
Yea only rex has it atm
the current bb system is stupid
which is why I am happy nothing has it except rex
Yea lol locational is gonna be so nice, no more legbreak from a tail tip hit
pack of dibbles suicide a giga
chance of legbreak increased to a definite
this is of course talking about the prior BB Dibble
i can only remember the horror
also hopefully better bb in general, not a chance to have your mobility get very limited instantly but instead multiple stages of bb, like with bleed. So some creatures do X amount of bb, and the more bb you have the more it affects your mobility
I could see a fracture system to SNAP
being a thing.
where it's like a slow that eventually turns to a full on limp
depending on how hard you run on it or otherwise
though if that were the case it would have to go to the third level of extreme of, broken to the point of no movement at all.
Imagine all the servers that would use that for 'pay us so we boost your dino'
I know this will probably take a long time, but I'd just wait for modding to make a return
@void zodiac They are recoding almost the entire game right now, I'm sure they will try to fix many bugs with that
yeah cause they need to fix the trikes hit box
also most hypers except hyper carno were in development for multiple years and are still not finished, they were never a priority and are just a side project
probably often being worked on if they finished what they wanted to do on that day
I agree with you, I'm sure they are working on the bugs with the rework but these, fucking, hypos, they have always jumped the gun with making then when there is currently no spot for them in the game. Eventually there will be but in this state, not anytime soon
I kinda feel you on the hypo
i get theyre a nice addition they're big neat and spectacle monsters
but in the end they're glorified admin tools for now
be they abused or otherwise.
^
But still i much prefer playable content over visually appealing beasts.
I know they have to be added one way or another and little progress shots here and there are great
^^^^^^
How are they admin tools if admins can’t access them
but for a while there it was just kinda.. back to back
fine then.
DEVELOPER TOOLS
Dev tools lmao
Calm your horses
