#

maybe its like only you can see if theyre feathered or not but the other players are what they have chosen

#

It would definitely be different thats for sure

#

But These are man made dinos so who knows mate

blazing charm
#

@barren zephyr Was not expecting you to literally copy and paste what I wrote before, not entirely sure how I feel about that but, you do you.

barren zephyr
#

o i can delete mate

#

Oi yea you want me too?

#

there we go

blazing charm
#

I'm not too bothered, but i'd probably work on the idea a little more since what I initially wrote there was a bit vague.

barren zephyr
#

Yea your point of view is better sorry mate

blazing charm
#

All good.

valid zephyr
#

@neon tide It used to be. Not sure why it isn't anymore.

neon tide
#

ah didn't know, would love it being readded

brittle bough
#

@nimble yoke alberto isnt in survival, and is thus liable to be unfinished/unbalanced/etc

cyan token
#

@barren zephyr a bit late, but i dont think the creature from the avatar movie is a fit for a type h-pteranodon

nimble yoke
#

@brittle bough, then why can the spino?

brittle bough
#

not all non-survivals are created equally

#

all of them can be unfinished/unbalanced, they may not necessarily be so, but they can be

vestal rune
#

can alberto not smell?

nimble yoke
#

nope.

vestal rune
#

oh actually that's not surprising, alberto actually never even made it into progression didn't it?

nimble yoke
#

I don't remeber, I just think it would be a great alternative for people who like sub rex gameplay but not adult rex.

sick crescent
#

Damn

grave karma
#

damn anyone remember the old progression trees?

#

like bleeder, crusher, fisher, venom

nimble yoke
#

yes and I agree, cerato needs a buff.

barren zephyr
#

cerato and pachy could do with a bleed resistance/heal buff

#

also how does anybody feel about pachy being able to breack things, such as small trees or door entrances

grave karma
#

would be neat

#

but cerato and pachy bleed res buff good

grand brook
#

how does it die easily to fall damage though?

barren zephyr
#

@valid flower

#

are you serious right now

valid flower
#

Yes, I fell 2 feet from a cliff and died instantly

#

instead of breaking my leg

#

which is unrealistic af.

grand brook
#

seriously?

barren zephyr
#

are you sure you fell 2 feet

grand brook
#

maybe a bug perhaps but the utah can fall from high places and land undamaged

barren zephyr
#

^

valid flower
#

It was a tiny ass fall

#

literally

barren zephyr
#

It was a bug then

valid flower
#

you'd be suprised

barren zephyr
#

Why would they buff utah's fall damage because of a bug

#

just fix the bug

valid flower
#

Not even a rex could die from that fall

barren zephyr
#

Its a bug[2]

grand brook
#

probably a bug then

valid flower
#

Damn....

grand brook
#

sometimes happens, same with hitboxes

#

the game will be more optimized once the recode is done so many bugs probably will go aswell

barren zephyr
#

A flare lol 😂

#

An actual one

#

@barren zephyr So basically better A.I mate?

#

Because A.I right now is a lot dull

grand brook
#

honestly seeing ai of playable species is...uncanny in a way?

#

maybe if it was from other non playable dinos perhaps

neat flicker
#

@sleek anchor #1527 Troll suggestions aren't allowed

grand brook
#

and bigger ai specially the type you describe will only increase the number of carnivores, and herbivores will be even more difficult to grow

barren zephyr
#

Well their will be different Herds of nonsurivial dinos and survival

paper oriole
#

Eeew people who react to their own suggestions

barren zephyr
#

More Variety in grass. Nuff said

#

@wintry cipher Well said

wintry cipher
#

Mhm. I saw lots of plains today and it's a patchwork of dark and light greens

barren zephyr
#

Gotcha, yea The Isle’s grass is fine but anything can always get better and it does need some work and I think its very obvious

wintry cipher
#

Mhm

azure viper
#

Kinda wish they let carnis be full white :I

#

How is my giga going to be a glorious indominus rex wannabe if it's color is a trash grey/whiteish mix

brittle bough
#

about the utah fall damage thing, ive definitely had that happen; fell from a great height with a broken leg, fell half the height later and died on impact from full health. its just buggy and inconsistent is all, rather than an intended thing

crimson phoenix
#

not sure if your just trolling, PaoDeQuejo, but a female giga with the skin Utah 2, Utah 2 ,Utah 2, Carno 2 is pretty accurate to the indoms colors

#

yea fall damage is just buggy right now, dilos can fall from really high and walk away unscathed while other times they will fall half their height and die

brittle bough
#

little did you know, a trike attacked a tree somewhere across the map

crimson phoenix
#

yes, not a shitbox at all, dem horns

valid zephyr
#

@barren zephyr I agree that AI has caused huge problems. Trouble is as you've mentioned, V3 is just too large to not have it.

barren zephyr
#

well yeah, but v3 sized maps never worth to play on

#

honestly

#

its too random

#

sometimes you literally doesnt see any dinosaur in a 3 hours of gameplay

valid zephyr
#

The combination of massive map which is easy to hide on and not see players for days, along with AI delivery via helicoptor the second you get hungry just results in the sever being a sea of rexes and gigas.

#

Yeah I often go entire play sessions seeing nothing

#

Thenyaw or R2 without AI was so much better imo. There was tons of action, and AI wasn't needed for carnis to eat.

barren zephyr
#

rn the game isnt as fun as it used to be

#

in the old days

#

but hopefully this will change after recode

#

wich probably will come before 2020 hits

#

xd

valid zephyr
#

Keep hearing about how the new map is apparently bigger than V3, which will make the games issues even worse.

barren zephyr
#

Well we don't know how it will work out if we have flyers and aquatics

#

but yeah, from this very few info, bigger map than v3 probably will give you the worst experience

valid zephyr
#

Good chunk of players will be ptera so basically not in game, and the map being much larger means you won't see anyone in weeks.

barren zephyr
#

Isle needs thenyaw or maybe a bit bigger map

#

and thats all

#

every other big maps is a ghost town

valid zephyr
#

I loved Thenyaws size, but the map itself was meh.

#

No good sized water sources for suchos, no open plains areas.

barren zephyr
#

I like how some retarded people are can't understand the meaning of my suggestion

#

probably they are maining rexes and gigas in a bush

#

and afking for 7 hours

#

😂

valid zephyr
#

Yeah my worry is people are now too used to how rexes are super easy for everyone to grow, and any move away from that will be met with complaints.

barren zephyr
#

I dont care how much the community will cry about they can't get rex so easily

#

they should fuck off and think about the balance of the Isle ecosystem

valid zephyr
#

Back in prog region 2 we had an actual ecosystem, with rare apexes and no need for AI.

#

Herbis were common.

#

The actual stats of the dinos isn't an issue currently.

#

Para is pretty equal to allo.

#

But it will always be one para vs 5-15 allos.

#

The carni/herbi player numbers right now are the worst they've ever been.

barren zephyr
#

Agreed but even getting rid of Ai will let you die of starvation anyways.

#

Even Velo ai is vulnerable food, may not be much but atleast it's something.

#

but do you have fun hunting ai?

#

cause iirc ai takes up slots actually

#

i mean an ai requires the same thing as a player would do

#

performance wise

valid zephyr
#

I'd much rather have 140 players than 100 players and 40 AI

barren zephyr
#

That's why i suggested different ai like shants, trikes, paras, etc.

#

And yes i do have fun hunting ai mostly ava, i once heard a ava 4 call and i ran to it to have a nice jump scare by a giga @barren zephyr

valid zephyr
#

AI quite simply makes growing apexes far too easy. Especially avas.

#

it's an utter joke to grow a rex right now

barren zephyr
#

Well it helps out new players too tbh, they are new to the game and they don't know what how to really hunt so Ai helps that and bigger Ai will make those Cocky players go after them.

#

Plus in prog, i died all the damn time, i never had the chance to do anything and Ai gave me that opportunity to hunt and grow and enjoy the game.

valid zephyr
#

AI could spawn around juvies still or somthing as they can't hunt

#

but you can't deny there is a massive population imbalance between carnis and herbis

#

and apexes which are supposed to be a challenge are not

#

rexes should not be for new players to grow

barren zephyr
#

well it isn't my fault that are more carnivore players than herbivore players.

steady cosmos
#

You gotta get used to hunting players and taking risk somehow

#

AI wont help that

#

maybe in the future

barren zephyr
#

it will help them having a opportunity to grow to kill bigger things.

#

We cant have a Juvie trying to kill an adult just for food.

steady cosmos
#

Why give someone who doesnt know how to play a bigger gun to shoot stuff with

barren zephyr
#

along with trike.

steady cosmos
#

And there are other options for food

#

than just a trike

barren zephyr
#

well those new people don't know how to fight just yet and they are probably scared to loose their dinosaur.

steady cosmos
#

there are small carnivores that require less time to grow

barren zephyr
#

i know.

#

Like utah.

valid zephyr
#

Back in 2017 there were lots of herbi players.

barren zephyr
#

And today those herbi players are killing things for no reason

valid zephyr
#

and carnis arn't?

steady cosmos
#

carnis have more reason to kill for "no reason"

barren zephyr
#

They need to hunt in order to live.

valid zephyr
#

aka 3 gigas ignoring dibble bodies they killed to kill para hatchlings

steady cosmos
#

Did the para hatchlings decide to walk out in the open?

barren zephyr
#

Most dinosaurs like to feed on kills they killed.

#

oof

#

herbis arent allowed to do anything huh,,,,

valid zephyr
#

no the paras were hidden in the bushes

#

the gigas killed the dibbles and para mother, then ingnored the bodies to kill the hatchlings

#

but that's ok apparently

steady cosmos
#

I doubt they werent doing something to get seen

#

IE talking in game

#

or moving around too much

valid zephyr
#

one maia kills a dilo and it's 'toxic herbis nerf them'

steady cosmos
#

Maia does need a nerf

barren zephyr
#

Maias are insanely terrifying

#

But like i said, herbi and carni players are the same

valid zephyr
#

if a dilo walks near a maia nest then it should expect to be killed

barren zephyr
#

Agreed

valid zephyr
#

herbis are nest in an awful state right now, and not due to their stats.

#

a maia fights a carno pretty evenly, but it will always be tons of carnos vs one maia

steady cosmos
#

Yep

barren zephyr
#

is there any update on how the recode is doing?

valid zephyr
#

which then makes the herbi players more frustrated so they go to carni instead where they can get groups to play with

steady cosmos
#

Not that i know

barren zephyr
#

no shiba

valid zephyr
#

@barren zephyr no

languid ember
#

I see 1 carno for every 2nd or 3rd maia i see, there’s not a lot of carnos around

barren zephyr
#

Ϛf

valid zephyr
#

carnos are actually not as common as they used to be. rexes, gigas, allos, and dilos are the meta

barren zephyr
#

gigas for me are hard to spot

#

yea

#

But tbh everyone is around the same areas

#

the amount of gigas i meet is insane

valid zephyr
#

maias and dibbles are the most common herbis

languid ember
#

It’s not that carno is unviable, it’s objectively the most viable dinosaur together with galli, but Carno is just boring

valid zephyr
#

I see more ceras and suchos than maias or dibbles though

languid ember
#

X

barren zephyr
#

I see many utahs than anything

valid zephyr
#

8 ceras killed my para, then next day 10 succs killed it

languid ember
#

Ceras are fucking extinct on US servers

#

Maybe on EU

valid zephyr
#

I saw no other paras

steady cosmos
#

Cera is sad rn

#

Methink it needs a slight weight buff

valid zephyr
#

bleed res buff

steady cosmos
#

Along with septic bite

valid zephyr
#

massive one

barren zephyr
#

I use to be cera but than i decided to be rex because i'm better with it.

languid ember
#

It doesn’t need a weight buff, just bleed res

steady cosmos
#

either weight buff

#

or nerf allos ambush

#

Cerato literally gets fucking dunked on by allo

#

even with bleed res, if it gets it

languid ember
#

If you give it weight and bleed res it starts getting the advantage vs an allo in a 1v1

#

Which it isn’t supposed to have

#

So no to weight, just bleed res

valid zephyr
#

Just thrown out another AI suggestion

#

something has to stick

#

no one can deny there is a serious population imbalance, but no ones solutions seem popular

#

if the rexes have to hang in popular spots to grow then they will struggle to reach adult

#

and mid tiers will do well

rigid tartan
#

i never have trouble playing cera. and i kill (1on1) everything i fight. apart from the odd apex., deffo not adult giga's but sub rex's and sub gigas easy. adult rex's if theyr dumb#

#

alt turn on adult giga is way too good xD cant even risk a bite as cera

#

@night mountain you cant just "make a.i unlikely to spawn" because you cant account for players actually being online for people to feed on... if no ones on u just gonna starve?

#

as i keep saying they need to make apex's an EARNT playable dino.. meaning less people taking risks fighting trikes/ other apex's less people getting a chance to play them

#

meaning more medium dino's

#

exactly lol

#

yeah its stilly lol

#

silly*

barren zephyr
#

ai should be random

rigid tartan
#

@barren zephyr if a.i is random they need to severely increase the amount that spawns.

#

the maps huge.

barren zephyr
#

carnivores already got a hour worth of hunger duration

#

lol

rigid tartan
#

only when full grown.. during that time theres many opportunity to starve

#

specially the last 5%

barren zephyr
#

ai shouldn't be given for free smh

rigid tartan
#

now making a.i spawn randomly and it is coded to migrate from lake to lake on set paths. that would be interesting.. could get player mixed in with a.i herbi herds going lake to lake or w.e would be great

#

a.i shouldn't be free but it needs to be lol

barren zephyr
#

ai for different biomes and shit could be great too

rigid tartan
#

until they add ones that fight back

barren zephyr
#

the isle is supposed to be a "hardcore" game anyway

#

just spoonfeeding afkers is lame as fuck

rigid tartan
#

it is.. the game in no way explains how to play your first ever first few dino's are dead to starvation or thirst

#

until u learn map and mechanics

barren zephyr
#

the game explains how to play

rigid tartan
#

barely lol i've met loads of people that didnt even know they had night vision on N

barren zephyr
#

their fault for skipping the ingame tutorial

rigid tartan
#

@valid zephyr btw if u make a.i spawn around lakes you will just have an even bigger problem than it is now of carnivores lake camping

#

herbi's will never be able to drink lol

grand brook
#

there is such thing as rivers though

valid zephyr
#

lakes were just an example. it could be near interesting rock formations

#

just some points of interest rather than some random spot in the middle of the woods no one would ever find

grand brook
#

but yeah in some spots scattered throughout the map to allow carnivores to be in more than one place

barren zephyr
#

there should be different ai's for every biome and nocturnal ones

rigid tartan
#

i think make a.i randomly spawn, but code them to seek out lakes/points of interest whatevers closest to them when they spawn, they roam the point of interest until enough of them arrive/survive the trail getting to said location then they will form their own mini npc herd and migrate the different Point of interest around map at a time, giving player herbi's an option to go with them or just ignore them as the carnivore buffet they would be.

barren zephyr
#

ai is gonna be a big part of the game anyway instead of being free food for carnivores

jovial moss
#

There should also be a considerable amount of bushes everywhere on the map IMO so that there aren't just 3 herbivore nesting spots that can be spawn camped

grand brook
#

with herbivore diets it's likely that plants will spawn in certain habitats and that they will have to constantly migrate

rigid tartan
#

@jovial moss pretty sure food bushes will be biome based aswell dude. hardly gonna find bushes in the desert etc

jovial moss
#

well yeah lol I'm just saying

valid zephyr
#

the varied diets will help I think. herbis will go to the spots with their preferred food. carnis will follow their preferred herbis to those spots too (and to areas with their preferred AI.)

jovial moss
#

LOL

rigid tartan
#

lol

jovial moss
#

an ava following a trike around honestly sounds cute

rigid tartan
#

give trikes bioluminescent signs that say "im right here guys"

valid zephyr
#

i'd like to see trikes, dibbles, and avas grouping

rigid tartan
#

should be the other way round players, should wanna follow some of the npc's

#

yeah thats what i meant about in my comment up there ^

#

going to Points of interest

#

ill put it in suggestions fkit

valid zephyr
#

the actual AI moving around sounds tough

#

don't know how they will pull that off

#

as they will get stuck on trees/cliffs/rocks

rigid tartan
#

yeah they just need to set a path for them to follow

#

from one place to the next

#

yeah npc pathing is pretty simple as far as games go

#

its when u give them free roam it becomes derpy

#

it would be good because during the day the chance of the npc herbi's getting to the lakes would be lower due to more carnivores but at night they would al survive. so we would wake up to large a.i herds migrating each day lol

grand brook
#

and even then some games do pull it off quite well

rigid tartan
#

yeah^

valid zephyr
#

maybe there would be obvious AI trails which didn't have trees or rocks

#

would make pathing easier and players could follow them

rigid tartan
#

yeah thats what i mean

#

like the gap in the tree's between the two twins lakes.. obvious paths like that

valid zephyr
#

they would look like trampled dirt rather than grass

rigid tartan
#

also it would really help herbies out.. need a bush in a rainstorm? follow the a.i

#

they are your salvation lol

valid zephyr
#

could have certain AI species in different areas as well

rigid tartan
#

yea

valid zephyr
#

I do suspect that a lot of these issues will be fixed in the next several patches

rigid tartan
#

probably. i still want migrating roaming a.i tho

#

be baller.

#

no REAL downside to it either

grand brook
#

i guess tacos would probably appear near conifer forests, oros in the plains and avas in the jungle

valid zephyr
#

migrating AI would be a great thing to have

grand brook
#

specially if it's from non playable species

valid zephyr
#

could have it to carnos get more food/affinity from oros, so they chill on the open plains

rigid tartan
#

well. faster dino's gonna chill in the open plains like carno's and utahs

valid zephyr
#

same for other dino species

rigid tartan
#

but bigger carni's need the camouflage

valid zephyr
#

maias and gallis could have plants they prefer on the plains

#

so you end up with oros, gallis, maias, utahs, and carnos all living there

grand brook
#

utahs would probably be at home on all places tbh, they are not as specialized to the plains as carnos are

rigid tartan
#

how much food do utah's get out of a fully grown galli?

#

cos as far as i know theyr barely worth killing

valid zephyr
#

food values are odd atm

#

adult dilo can feed apexes

#

they seem endless

rigid tartan
#

mmm

valid zephyr
#

not sure about gallis as never seen one as utah or carno

rigid tartan
#

i think any adult dino's should be a few bites atleast

valid zephyr
#

galli should feed a few adult utahs

#

it weighs as much as an entire utah

rigid tartan
#

yeah

grand brook
#

dryos have less food than avas, though i guess it makes some sense

rigid tartan
#

when i ate you on my rex as galli it didnt give me anything really.

#

were u full galli?

wintry cipher
#

@formal vine that's the idea. They're supposed to be stupidly rare and essentially act as a reset button for the server. You literally can't take a hyper down. The only thing you can do is hide. The reason there's so many visible rn is because the devs are handing them out randomly for shits and giggles.

formal vine
#

I mean, you see what a Hypo CARNO can do

wintry cipher
#

All hypoa also have the same stats right now

formal vine
#

Imagine what devastation a hypo rex or giga can do?

wintry cipher
#

They do the same

formal vine
#

And they're definetly gonna make hypo carno use his horns

#

Because come on look at that shit

wintry cipher
#

Yeah. That's why hyper are a rare reset button and unplayable ATM as they aren't done xD I'd just take that video as a tip off of how scary they will be if you ever have the bad luck to cross one

formal vine
#

Hypos are meant to be like

#

Final stage

#

Where you have no other danger that threatens you except another hypo

wintry cipher
#

Yeah. They're an end game thing caused by human interference.

#

We don't even have humans yet, and they will be very rare. So I wouldn't worry too much. The devs know how dangerous they are

formal vine
#

They've gotta make em really hard to get

wintry cipher
#

They are

#

I'm telling you they already will xD

#

They're just spawning them in randomly rn so they're not nearly as rare. Like one being spotted every 3 months rare is my expectation

formal vine
#

Theres like gotta be something intresting to make them hard to get but make it fun at the same time

#

instead of bush sitting and eating Avas every 2 minutes

wintry cipher
#

You won't grow them for starters

barren zephyr
#

Tbh this topic is cool to talk about, but until we get them in the game its like talking about fantasy

wintry cipher
#

Pmuch

#

Hyper will come after humans and we are nowhere near that yet

formal vine
#

Well

#

Grow is a technical term

#

More like progress

barren zephyr
#

Exactly

wintry cipher
#

Your an experiment. There's your fun. The thing is I'm pretty sure hyper will be an accidental creation and a bad one

barren zephyr
#

I would wait until we get every normal dino in game first

wintry cipher
#

Since if it is intended, people will spam it to grief the server

formal vine
#

I agree with toil

valid zephyr
#

honestly I think hypos are a stupid idea

valid flower
#

Hypos are useless

valid zephyr
#

I don't care how rare they are, why do the other players which have worked hard deserve to be 'reset'

barren zephyr
#

Welp the devs dont think that so opinions are opinions

valid zephyr
#

all hypos are is basically the ability to act like a 5 year old on the beach kicking peoples sandcastles

formal vine
#

A hypo has been the menu screen of the game at early stages

#

People used to think the rex on the menu screen was like a mutated rex

#

before dondi sorta revealed Hypos

gentle blade
#

Regardless if you think it's stupid or not, it's an intended mechanic and part of the lore. I doubt any suggesting "make it not happen" will ever cause the devs to say "sure let's not add the hulking beast that has a model and animations and sounds already"

barren zephyr
#

Comrade chances you get to play as them are very slim so everything will be fine mate

#

hyper carno uses same stats as the other hypos

formal vine
#

Yeah

barren zephyr
#

its just faster

formal vine
#

Still though

#

They're OP

valid zephyr
#

well i'm a herbi player, so no i'll not get to play them

#

all hypos seem to have the same stats or somthing atm

barren zephyr
#

yea ofc they are Op. the hypos purpose to wipe servers

#

Shout out to the herb player we dont have a lot of those

#

and kill everything on sight

valid zephyr
#

but why is wiping a server a good game mechanic?

formal vine
#

^

#

With hypos playing the isle pointless

barren zephyr
#

They will figure it out

formal vine
#

You're gonna die none the less

wintry cipher
#

Maybe to keep a certain faction from getting a stranglehold

#

Like mercs or tribals

barren zephyr
#

The Isle, a World Designed to KIll you

gentle blade
#

Besides I'm sure after hypers are a thing then you'll find servers either with them off, if that is something they allow configurable, or where they have a rule where you're not allowed to achieve them or some other thing like it. Cuz realism or w/e

wintry cipher
#

Imagine dying at aoawn due to infinite bullets or arrows

barren zephyr
formal vine
#

lmao

valid zephyr
#

it's basically you see somone on the map has a hypo and you all log. great 10/10 mechanic

wintry cipher
#

Inb4 the devs make you unable to log for the 45 minutes a hypo exists

formal vine
#

Take into consideration, that 'a world designed to kill you' is but a term to describe the game, if it actually was a serious term, people will STOP playing the isle after constantly loosing their 7 hour apex

gentle blade
#

Wasn't hyper Rex in the game a long time ago and people didn't log then dondiThink

formal vine
#

Players will leave the game because of frustration

barren zephyr
#

I heard hypos cost hella money to create also

formal vine
#

You actually had to try to get that hypo rex

valid zephyr
#

people used to constantly lose their 7 hour apexes on thenyaw. apexes shouldn't be easy to grow

wintry cipher
#

I'm fairly certain apexes will get very rare and small tiers become the meta once humans are in just to avoid the bullets.

barren zephyr
#

The issue is

#

Hypos are meant to be super rare world ending abominations taht bring fear on players hearts.

valid zephyr
#

small tiers can hide

barren zephyr
#

Just imagine how long you gotta play to become a hypo. The devs will have it under control.

#

atm they are only nuisances

#

because of youtubers

#

using them all the time

wintry cipher
#

Small = less chance of getting spotted by the mercs to begin with

barren zephyr
#

from "OH S#@#@ A HYPO" to "oh look.. another hypo"

valid flower
#

Youtubers shouldn’t be able to play as hypos and wreck a god damn server just for fun

barren zephyr
#

Youtubers are at fault for Ruining Hypos for most

wintry cipher
#

Are horror games fun for the victim? Or are they(you) just a masochist?

valid zephyr
#

oh look a trike herd that has a combined 30 hours grow time.

oh look they're all dead with no chance of fleeing, fighting, or logging in time

#

great game mechanic

barren zephyr
#

And thats why they will throw the dinos in sandbox or give an option to turn the way you can get a hypo off

opal moth
#

Im pretty sure the hypos will be part of the dna thing not to grow but to evolve from your dino

wintry cipher
#

Honest question since first horror game

#

It will be later xD but yeah

formal vine
#

Yeah thats another thing

#

The NV is the only horror thing but it gets annoying at most

grand brook
#

hi guys this is my edgy oc hyper carno, it's name is bloodhorn and pls do not steal

formal vine
#

lmao zor

valid zephyr
#

I think the horror part is meant to be playing as humans and having cannibels clicking in the darkness

opal moth
#

The ilse is if your a dryo and on thenya and you hear dilos

wintry cipher
#

The clickers (cannibals) are blatant horror material

barren zephyr
#

its supposed to be okay? ;_;

#

I actually do feel sort of horror ingame.

grand brook
#

teleports behind you

formal vine
#

Cannibals?

#

well those are not the thing

barren zephyr
#

I felt like I was being stalked by gigas as a Sucho when playing with Azure

formal vine
#

The tribal and cannibal are the same thing

barren zephyr
#

I felt like on an abandoned ghost swamp

#

where alot of suchos meet their fate

#

i mean ive had genuine scary moments in the isle

opal moth
#

On thenya if you are a dryo at night the scarriest thing to hear is a dryo call and your not near your burrow

barren zephyr
#

@night mountain Minecraft Cave Sounds dondiYikes

formal vine
#

^

opal moth
#

Not dryo call dilo call

barren zephyr
#

These cave sounds usually made me quit MC for a month

#

Minecraft is scarier indeed

#

Weird. a blocky game is scarier than a "horror" realistic game

valid zephyr
#

mc is terrifying

barren zephyr
#

i always felt uncomfortable mining alone

gentle blade
#

Think y'all are getting off topic, might be best to go back to isle discussion?

barren zephyr
#

Lol

formal vine
#

There needs to be something to give you a feeling of UNEASE in the isle even if you're in a pack/herd

barren zephyr
#

Hold on.

#

What suggestion

#

was the discussion

#

about

#

Hypos

gentle blade
#

Suggestion was hypers

barren zephyr
#

so lets come BACK into IT

formal vine
#

yeah

wintry cipher
#

The worry of the suggestion was that hypos wouldn't be rare

#

They will be

formal vine
#

A single hypo rex can destroy an ecosystem

valid zephyr
#

I understand how strains are meant to be a long term goal/aspiration for carni players, and I think having a long term thing is essential for them.

I just wish herbis had a long term goal too.

formal vine
#

Because APEXES are meant to be rare

#

Well

barren zephyr
#

Its suggestion about hypos. But to end that discussion, its gonna be very rare and its not in the game yea ok

formal vine
#

80% server rex lmao

#

Imagine hypos

wintry cipher
#

Good. I want the rexes gone

valid zephyr
#

yeah rexes and gigas are meant to be rare. instead they're most of the server

barren zephyr
#

gigas*

wintry cipher
#

Then we get 7 hours of variety

barren zephyr
#

rexes and gigas gone

valid zephyr
#

rex behind every single tree

barren zephyr
#

dont forget every giga

formal vine
#

The apexes both are meant to be 20% of the server

#

Hypos 5%

#

REALLY RARE

grand brook
#

gigas too

barren zephyr
#

@valid zephyr atleast rexes that hide on trees know what they are doing

#

thats the only way they can hunt something efficiently

#

You cant really stop people from wasting 7 hours to grow if they want to be a rex

grand brook
#

i mean you technically can

formal vine
#

They're too EASY to grow

barren zephyr
#

apexes are cringe. cant wait for when mercs get added and the apex populations go down

valid zephyr
#

er somone didn't play the days with smaller maps

barren zephyr
#

Thats if the mercs find the guns

#

necessary

#

to take one down

grand brook
#

the point is difficult long growth that culls their numbers effectively

valid zephyr
#

thenyaw made rex growing hell, and it was great

barren zephyr
#

I doubt it will be easy.

#

Well go on a different server instead of complaining and being negative mate

formal vine
#

Yeah thenyaw was SCARY AF

barren zephyr
#

thenyaw is still scary

grand brook
#

Thenyaw rex growing hell?

formal vine
#

The night in thenyaw is just hell

valid zephyr
#

you seriously don't see a problem with 80% of the server being rex?

barren zephyr
#

its the only good map smh v3 is full of shit

grand brook
#

but ai spawns right beside you in Thenyaw

barren zephyr
#

Thenyaw > Isle V3 in terms of gameplay

formal vine
#

Thenyaw is small

#

And thus AI is LOUD

#

allowing anyone to find your bum

valid zephyr
#

apexes should be hard af to grow, and take a lot of skill. They should not be somthing a noob can grab first time, and sit in a bush while avas walk into their mouths

barren zephyr
#

Ok some of you are herb fans, and you want rex and giga growth hours to take like 10 hours right lol?

#

just kill the ai and move away smh

valid zephyr
#

no 7 hours is good

formal vine
#

lmao

#

The ai Runs

#

Ava AI specially

barren zephyr
#

Then please stop being negative

valid zephyr
#

the problem is AI literally spawning on you when you get a bit peckish

grand brook
#

no mate you don't seem to get the thing, it's not the time it takes it's the difficulty of it

barren zephyr
#

then dont follow it

formal vine

barren zephyr
#

@night mountain

#

Dude

#

Ok im out lol

#

me as a herbi main

#

grew a rex to adult

#

with no problem

#

in EU 3

#

a dead fucking server

#

with just AI

formal vine
#

Yeah

grand brook
#

7 hours in a bush? no problem, people can do it just waiting for avas to enter their greasy throats without moving a muscle

barren zephyr
#

ppl should be able to track afkers by their ai😄

#

Note EU-3 has 3-4 players in max

formal vine
#

I've grown a giga on EU 1

#

with 100 players

#

V3 is huge

valid zephyr
#

yep i'm an awful player and a herbi main, but I can grow a rex to full adult like it's a joke.

formal vine
#

and still didn't find nobody

barren zephyr
#

It is a joke

valid zephyr
#

people are now used to it being super easy, barely an inconvenience.

formal vine
valid zephyr
#

we're still talking about how to balance carnis/herbis and apexes.

#

which is related to the suggestions

formal vine
#

The suggestion was about hyperendocrins

valid zephyr
#

yep avas should punt juvie carnis into the sea

dim ginkgo
#

If they do that there should be more small prey

#

Big dinos should mainly spawn avas and small / juvies small ai

valid zephyr
#

the idea is to make it harder to grow large dinos, not easier

dim ginkgo
#

I agree it should be difficult, but how easy isn’t it for an Ava to kill a juvie

rigid tartan
#

log out timer is fine. if u let someone sit there for 60seconds to log you deserve to miss the kill imo

#

@gentle blade *

#

for the record its easy to tell if someone is trying to combat log on you. move around them, if their head doesn't turn to look at you they are trying to log

valid zephyr
#

if it will take you longer than 60 seconds of biting somthing to kill it why are you hunting it

rigid tartan
#

^

dry cradle
#

@formal vine irc hyper carno still had the same stats as hyper giga

languid ember
#

P sure every hyper has the same stats besides speed and ambush

valid zephyr
#

I like all the small rocks and logs

#

gives small creatures an advantage while running through terrain

pale prairie
#

yes, what we need is more unique biomes.

valid zephyr
#

not even more, just more to make the current ones really different

pale prairie
#

some more open plains, redwood forest, savannah, swamps with different/unique trees such as mangrove rather than just having the same trees everywhere else has.

valid zephyr
#

the main thing imo is having certain AI and edible plants in each

#

in order to make different dinos live different places

pale prairie
#

like V4?

valid zephyr
#

never played v4

pale prairie
#

that'd be nice.

#

it had something similar to what you're saying.

#

or rather, it was going to

valid zephyr
#

aka oros spawn on the plains, along with plants for maias and gallis.

utahs and carnos would prefer oros, maias, and gallis

#

so all those creatures would live on the plains

#

that's how i avoid being chased with small dinos half the time, run into a minefield of rocks

#

maias need slowing to 40-42kph

#

which is a different issue

#

at that speed they can no longer catch utah, but still can flee allo and cera

barren zephyr
#

heheh i got chased by 7 maias as a utah and still managed to live with screen 4

grave karma
#

when we get trample, i want to flatten utahs as maia

#

tisso carno but when it runs into utahs it just slices them in half

rigid tartan
#

@barren zephyr they dont need to reduce the numbers of them they need to just change how they interact with dino's like the rocks should be set by mass. if you are below a certain weight, you collide and they can stop you. if you're above a certain weight you just clip through them. tired of getting caught on a tiny rock as adult rex. then flying off a rock thats shaped like a ramp lol

#

should change with recode tho, so wait and see 😃

barren zephyr
#

sounds like an apex pred main

rigid tartan
#

i play all the dino's they can all be fun. rocks dont take prisoners.

#

try something constructive next time x]

barren zephyr
#

._.

rigid tartan
#

do the rocks irritate u too? 😛

barren zephyr
#

they dont

rigid tartan
#

seriously? dondiOOF

#

is character slots really going to be a thing?

lament thorn
#

hope not

#

kinda takes away from the point of the the whole 'hardcore survival' game thing

rigid tartan
#

yeah

#

first character slots. then microtransactions

#

rip

teal grotto
#

@rigid tartan they disabled family share because people avoided bans.. Its not a problem if you have character slots as your name and id is the same.

#

Also after you grow a dibo that takes 6.5 hours.. I can understand the whole thing of not wanting to let said 6.5 hours go to waste

rigid tartan
#

i mean i see "oh wanna kill my herbi do u? let me log my adult rex cos i know where u are" a problem tho

#

as a problem*

teal grotto
#

Dinosaur*

rigid tartan
#

whats to stop people making a ptera. and having an apex as their alt.

#

fly around. find people. done

teal grotto
#

Ptera has limited sight in the air lol

#

Also id rather have character slots over having to make another steamaccount and buying the game again another 10 times

rigid tartan
#

or just to stick to your 1 dino and dont die. lol

#

keep it "hardcore"

teal grotto
#

Lol slayer your hopeless to get the point across

#

Alright let me say this

#

Grows an apex right right.. You want to play with a friend buuuuut

rigid tartan
#

im not hopeless. just have a different opinion 😛

teal grotto
#

You gotta kill your 7 hour grind

rigid tartan
#

agree'd its awkward but why commit to an 8hour grind if you're so fickle that you will flop to your friends will xD

#

get them to start an apex.

grave karma
#

limit it to 1 apex lol

teal grotto
#

Not everyone is hardcore loving as you are

#

It gets very very boring as a single character

#

Its a good break away from the hey I don't wanna play but I also dont wanna kill my progress

#

Friends wanna play a Raptor.. I can just hop on another character

rigid tartan
#

its essentially a save button and i dont agree with those in multiplayer games ;P

teal grotto
#

Can't do that with current

valid zephyr
#

on one hand i like the idea of multiple characters, on the other people will just use them to feed their main

rigid tartan
#

people will just abuse it* case closed

#

in all ways they can and will.

#

its why we cant have nice things.

teal grotto
#

@valid zephyr they do it with there be steam accounts already.

#

Character slots make that very hard to do lol

valid zephyr
#

yeah but that costs them money

#

this makes it super easy

teal grotto
#

Also comrad

#

AI limit is being increased

#

So that's no longer an issue

finite perch
#

apexes are apex for a reason, each player should only get one apex slot. if you only play apexes, thats not the games fault lol

valid zephyr
#

great more AI... just what the game needs /s

teal grotto
#

It does

pale prairie
#

yeah, i mean, 4-6 AI spawning every 10 minutes for a hungry carnivore just isn't enough

teal grotto
#

Its bot that sinple

#

Simple*

#

Not

rigid tartan
#

nah i think if you're playing apex and u wanna swap tough luck. this is the literal problem with the community apex's are just a thing u can grow and kill whenever your friends wanna play something different. thats why theres so many. you're an epidemic death lol

valid zephyr
#

every server is a seething mass of apex carnis. it takes the IQ of a chimp to grow one right now

pale prairie
#

we clearly need 10 or more AI spawning right in front of us every 10 minutes.

rigid tartan
#

make apex's harder to obtain, and keep the 1slot. then people wont be so anxious to grow them all the time. if their friends want something else. all the better

teal grotto
#

If there are character slots "which there will be" you will see the whole carni vs herbi thing be more balanced out.

pale prairie
#

how so?

rigid tartan
#

no u will see EVERY person with 1 apex and 1 alt

#

it will be so much worse

#

at least this limits it somewhat

pale prairie
#

are you saying if people can keep animals alive rather than having to kill them off if they want to switch, they will want to play another class?

valid zephyr
#

oooor people can just grab rex mkII to revenge kill their killer, and use the other herbi slots to ez grow their apex

teal grotto
#

Yep

rigid tartan
#

comrade knows.

#

another slot will just make apex's go crazy

pale prairie
#

so if somebody loves playing utah, having the ability to play something else without killing off their utah, they will play herbivores instead?

teal grotto
#

If you already aced the class you want to keep the progress and not delete it

pale prairie
rigid tartan
#

yes but 99% of the time people will choose 1apex + their fav dino lol

teal grotto
#

So people will move on to the next

rigid tartan
#

instead of being stuck with just their fav

valid zephyr
#

the apexes already are crazy. this will just take it from 70 apexes per server to 90

rigid tartan
#

^

finite perch
#

^

teal grotto
#

Not reallly

rigid tartan
#

lol

teal grotto
#

Really*

valid zephyr
#

I want their to be multiple slots. I just don't see how it can be done without exploiters

pale prairie
#

ok, i'll put it to you this way, dragon, let's say i love rex, i think it's the best animal in the game, right.
i have 2 slots for apexes, both of those are going to be rexes.

#

nothing will change that.

#

there are plenty of people who play nothing but rex

#

nothing will change that

rigid tartan
#

its not even that duck

#

issue is

pale prairie
#

people play what they want to play

rigid tartan
#

as it stands u get like what 60% apex players 40% everything else? .. give them an option to grow one and that other 40% will also grow an apex.. making it 100% apex's whenever peeps choose to play them

#

plus their alts

pale prairie
#

no, that example was for the "the whole carni vs herbi thing be more balanced out." thing

rigid tartan
#

oh ok

finite perch
#

if i could pocket my rex and still play, waiting for a better climate to grow (late at night) or for less apexes online as competition/threat, i could grow so easily its laughable

rigid tartan
#

i know fraidy lol specially if u can use your faster alt dino to scope out a growing area

#

fuck

#

"shit someones coming, swap to my alt... hang around faster than them till they leave.. relog"

#

jeeeeez

pale prairie
#

also, when was it stated that we would have more AI? the way AI works will be changing and therefore more AI will need to be on the server at a time, sure.
but for the current system, i don't believe anyone said the "AI limit" would be increasing.

valid zephyr
#

If I was an exploiter, i'd grow rex 1 and 2 as main and revenge kill rex. rest would be maias due to fast growth and large size to feed the rexes

teal grotto
#

Nothing can be done with exploiters example gamma tards. No matter how much we can deal with them you can't just get rid of them.. All you can do is watch them and make sure you ban them.. No matter what you do people will find ways around things.. But if you also limit things you also scare away more people from the game and you lose players because they get "bored" but at thecsanetime people do not want to kill something that put so much sink hole time into.. So the moment they feel accomplished they log out and change there character to ace something else. Look at today rpg games fir that example..

grave karma
#

thats what it was like when steam sharing was enabled

#

tons of revenge killing

rigid tartan
#

the gamma is an easy fix. the devs are just busy frying bigger fish

pale prairie
#

the goal is to have no rules, dragon.

#

no rules needed on official servers

rigid tartan
#

^

teal grotto
#

@grave karma they can't with character slots dont you understand

pale prairie
#

that is impossible if admins need to stay active, banning people for abusing this system.

teal grotto
#

Character slots wont change your id or name

pale prairie
#

ok, but what people can do is feed themselves, @teal grotto

rigid tartan
#

i dont see how the simple mechanic of "choose your dino' ok u play that till u die or make a new one" is going to scare anyone off.

grave karma
#

it wont lmao

rigid tartan
#

isnt that why we all bought it

#

lmao

teal grotto
#

Yeah good luck with that lol

grave karma
#

i think being able to revenge kill almost instantly would though

rigid tartan
#

xD

#

yeah no1 wants to win a big fight and then suddenly be ganked 3mins later

grave karma
#

character slots is bs overall

pale prairie
#

grow a rex in one slot, grow a bunch of maias in the other slots.
go up to an area with a decently high cliff, leave your rex there, bring the maias there and run off the cliff, log back in and boom, you have food.

grave karma
#

exactly

#

theres literally nothing stopping them from doing that

rigid tartan
#

just get your friend to kill you lol relog free food.

pale prairie
#

there's a lot of issues with this system, which is why when slots are added, they won't be on official servers.

#

they'll be an option for unofficial

rigid tartan
#

official doesn't need them. needs to stay "hardcore" im using that lightly as i know its a buzzword that triggers death

#

cant say it enough here in suggestion discussion

#

Wait, for , the ,recode. first

valid zephyr
#

people will always exploit yeah, but currently they need to buy more accounts which most don't do.

Making exploiting super easy for everyone isn't the answer

pale prairie
#

gotto start saying that to all the people talking about balance, it's not like weight won't affect combat after the recode so everything needs new stats or we're getting a new combat system or anything like that

valid zephyr
#

all that will happen is the entire server will be rexes and the dinos grown to feed them specially

#

yeah no balance suggestions atm. it's pointless when all balance goes to hell soon

teal grotto
#

@valid zephyr I know alot who do..

#

Buy accounts

#

Buy more isle

valid zephyr
#

i know some, but most don't

teal grotto
#

They have like 40 isle accounts

valid zephyr
teal grotto
#

I rest my case

pale prairie
#

ok ok ok, but won't having slots on official servers make it even worse?

#

i don't see how allowing you to basically do the same thing for free will stop anyone from doing it

valid zephyr
#

currently pretty sure they get banned for using alts

teal grotto
#

Least people will learn that hey maybe I should not revenge kill cause im just going to get permabanned again..

valid zephyr
#

hope they at least make rexes super challenging to grow again

teal grotto
#

Character slots again stops this.. How? All progress is on 1 account not mulyiple

#

Multiple*

pale prairie
#

it doesn't stop it.

#

at all

#

if anything it makes it easier

valid zephyr
#

the entire server balance is a joke atm, and people think it isn't enough apexes

pale prairie
#

people will still buy other accounts

#

and as i've already said, the goal is to not need any rules on official.

teal grotto
#

Why hurt the community when your basicly saying to your players hey its not intentional but we dont have slots so we count as a triple A company now buy more games.. Which negatively effects the devs

#

And the product

#

You gotta lookat other things too not just ingame things

pale prairie
#

i don't understand how any of that would negatively affect the devs, it's been this way for 3 years now yet you don't see many people complaining

teal grotto
#

People hold attachments to there characters

pale prairie
#

besides, save slots are already going to be an option for unofficial servers.

#

just not for official

#

the goal is to have no rules and not need admins, which with save slots is impossible.

teal grotto
#

Dev's have alot on there plate and I understand why they "might just use character slots" as a problem fixer..

pale prairie
#

but they're not going to on official servers.

teal grotto
#

You dont know that nor do i

grave karma
#

it'd create even more issues than there already are/probably will be

pale prairie
#

no no, i do know that.

#

a dev has already said that.

#

in this discord.

#

"an option for unofficial servers"

teal grotto
#

Fan base drives the community..

#

And the game it self

rigid tartan
#

yes but as you can see you're outnumbered by the "fan base"

#

i doubt they will come to official

pale prairie
#

ok? what does that have to do with what we're discussing?

teal grotto
#

I never said official lol

rigid tartan
#

then what are you even arguing

pale prairie
teal grotto
#

I just said in general character slots will fix issues lol

rigid tartan
#

unnoficial issues?

#

ok?

#

lol

pale prairie
#

and we said yes, but they're abusable, and will never come to official servers because the goal is to have no rules and not need admins.

teal grotto
#

Take into account that the "unofficial" servers out number the players on official..

rigid tartan
#

because unofficial offers more content for the time being because devs are busy

teal grotto
#

Nyctia is a good example

rigid tartan
#

and that reason alone.

teal grotto
#

200 player max like 20 hours acday

#

A day*

rigid tartan
#

ok but.

pale prairie
#

yeah, 200 players.

#

great

#

but eh

#

have fun during combat

rigid tartan
#

im just saying as soon as the devs update something, ANYTHING watch the population numbers on their servers and the official servers.

teal grotto
#

That's 1 server out of 4 lol

rigid tartan
#

i guarentee. they empty

pale prairie
#

"oh shit, this trike just hit me from a mile away! f*cking broken game! it has nothing todo with the fact this server is 100 players over the max or anything, the games broken!"

rigid tartan
#

x]

teal grotto
#

Lol

#

That issue I never see

pale prairie
#

really? funny, i see that all the time in this discord.

teal grotto
#

All I see are people jumping off a cliff

rigid tartan
#

unofficial is just there for people to enjoy the "short cuts" and less rule enhanced version of the game. in a way not intended by the devs. now its not wrong. but its not how they intended it to be played. again tho soon as devs release something people will abandon unofficial in their droves

pale prairie
#

people coming from unofficial servers complaining about the game being completely broken when it's really server lag, or people complaining about balance without alt turn

#

nah, they won't, slayer.

teal grotto
#

Just recently seen a trike get angry he got killed by a Rex because he tried to run away from him then yeeted off a 3 foot drop.. Then gets angry he got killed by said Rex then complained about it on here.. As a hack..

rigid tartan
#

they will until devs release the files

#

lol

pale prairie
#

maybe some, but not in droves.

teal grotto
#

Litterly like a week ago I seen this when im chilling with my 4 month old giga

pale prairie
#

ok? and eh, so you're agreeing with me there?

rigid tartan
#

weird flex but ok

teal grotto
#

?

#

Im not flexing anything or agreeing about the 100 meter hacking lol

rigid tartan
#

xD "my 4month old giga"

#

totally a flex

pale prairie
#

it's not hacking, it's server lag.

#

the game doesn't use hitboxes currently

grand brook
#

more apexes?

teal grotto
#

I keep my characters alive I dont throw them away

rigid tartan
#

always zorrez

grand brook
#

Exterminatus then

rigid tartan
#

as you command inquisitor.

pale prairie
#

so, because there are traditional hitboxes, some weird shit happens

teal grotto
#

Im not "flexing" I keep track with how old my apex is.. And its so very boring lol but maybe its because I fallow the food chain and don't hunt other apexes

pale prairie
#

why would you not hunt a trike as a giga?

#

anyway

rigid tartan
#

im just messing with you, just you coulda said "my giga" instead of "my 4 month giga"

#

made it a flex.

#

we're off topic.

pale prairie
#

this is starting to get offtopic

rigid tartan
#

get out of my head

pale prairie
teal grotto
#

Lol

#

I meant carnivore apexes

rigid tartan
#

so duck

#

i fixed the juvi's sitting under bushes till theyr adult problem

pale prairie
#

ahh right, because herbivore apexes aren't apexes

teal grotto
#

I do hunt trikes when alone

rigid tartan
#

u ready for it duck?

pale prairie
#

really?

#

how?

#

by making them fun to play?

#

rather than just being worse versions of the adults?

teal grotto
#

Herbivores are nutritional

ok so. an area of the map surrounded by a tall wall with little cracks/tunnels in them. only big enough for early sub/late juvi's. this area with be where juvi's spawn it will be JUVI NATION. juvi's cant hide under tree's cos theyr being hunted by other juvi's. and you leave through a tunnel or crack before you're too big or RIP.

#

boom solved dont @ me

valid zephyr
#

what if you don't leave?

rigid tartan
#

like i said

valid zephyr
#

you can just eat juvies

rigid tartan
#

rip.

pale prairie
#

good point,

#

just live there forever

#

free food

rigid tartan
#

if you dont leave before u hit big boy standards. you are auto teleported i dunno i said dont @ me ok

pale prairie
#

spawncampers paradise

teal grotto
#

Lol

rigid tartan
#

okok ill get back to you when i fix that issue

#

OH i've got it

#

adults cant kill juvi's 😉

#

dondiLUL its like bambi status

teal grotto
#

Also why there are too many carnivores then herbivores because most of us prefer to be a monster

pale prairie
#

Rip ceratos and utahs

#

that was my point earlier, dragon, how would having character slots make more people play herbivore?

rigid tartan
#

it wouldn't carnivore is too fun

pale prairie
#

exactly

rigid tartan
#

herbi's need a "niche" they dont have one theyr just bad carnivores

pale prairie
#

the only way to increase the herbivore population is to make them fun

#

enjoyable

teal grotto
#

Herbis in anything need something new

rigid tartan
#

herbi's can mixpack with humans and become mounts. boom every1 wants to herbi

pale prairie
#

grazing

rigid tartan
#

😮

teal grotto
#

Exactly

pale prairie
#

i got it

#

herbivores won't have a strain right?

teal grotto
#

Which is coming in thevrecode

rigid tartan
#

apparently.

pale prairie
#

so instead of a strain, something like an elder version of each herbivore, easier to obtain than the carnivore strains, not quite as strong but still much stronger than regular herbivores.

teal grotto
#

Wait till the murder turkey gets in the game lol

mental sleet
#

huh, no, duck.

pale prairie
#

yes, let me dream.

teal grotto
#

actually elder stage is going to be a thing as I heard on the grape vine..

#

Aka ancient

#

Not a bad idea

pale prairie
#

no, it hasn't been confirmed by any dev.
just unofficial art work

rigid tartan
#

take away carnivore option to group. carnivore is a solo game. herbivore is the multiplayer experience., i've cracked it

teal grotto
#

Raptors are not a solo

#

Allos

rigid tartan
#

they are now.

teal grotto
#

Etc

grave karma
#

elder herbis please

rigid tartan
#

hey i didnt say it was perfect. but it would fix it

grave karma
#

but before strains are obtainable

rigid tartan
#

im not saying raptors and allo's cant hang out near each other but they cant group, and can only talk through local.

teal grotto
#

Ancient stage able to put up a fight vs a hypo that's a yes in my book

rigid tartan
#

GROUPING should be changed to "HERDING" and boom herbi's more fun

vestal rune
#

I don't think that's really the correct way of going about it

#

plus herbivores are better for groups then carnivores anyway

teal grotto
#

Well if the grind is like 100 hours lol

rigid tartan
#

and yet no one does it fire.

vestal rune
#

more refering to slayer

#

no one does what?

rigid tartan
#

group.

vestal rune
#

what?

rigid tartan
#

herbi's are just bad carnivores atm because carnivore does everything they do but better. including when theyr in groups

vestal rune
#

whenever I play herbivore it's hard for me not to find a group

rigid tartan
#

not my point my dude

teal grotto
#

Carnivores group all the time

pale prairie
#

because a single good giga can wipe a para or diablo herd, not many people herd anymore

rigid tartan
#

thats my point duck.

#

lol

pale prairie
#

i still like this more than back when there were diablo X trike herds that would run juveniles down and make them wish they were never born

teal grotto
#

That's very very very untrue

pale prairie
#

no, that's very very very true

#

paras can run

#

diablos can try to run

teal grotto
#

points to unofficial servers

pale prairie
#

game isn't being made for unofficial servers

rigid tartan
#

if u take away grouping from carnivores. theyr in the dark. they have to rely on mainly themselves. and knowing who their friend is by their colours. this will filter most people who only play carnivore cos its easy. leaving the herbi players organised and content.

pale prairie
#

why do you think the game is balanced around alt turn?

teal grotto
#

Sees a herd of 50 Herbis on 1 server

rigid tartan
#

when xD

pale prairie
#

unofficial

rigid tartan
#

bet it wasnt EU

#

lol indeed.

teal grotto
#

Of you pay attention you would see them

rigid tartan
#

.. u kidding?

teal grotto
#

And on official 1

pale prairie
#

in unofficial servers, dragon.

rigid tartan
#

a 50pack of herbi's u think i would miss that on a 100pop server?

#

are u high

pale prairie
#

yeah no, that only happens if there's a streamer

teal grotto
#

There is a herbi group I know of who have a discord that they group together in

pale prairie
#

yeah, i'm in three of those groups dragon

rigid tartan
#

you're losing credibility here

pale prairie
#

most of them play carnivore now.

teal grotto
#

Nah they still herbi

rigid tartan
#

but on a serious note... i dont think not grouping would hurt carnivore play style THAT much. and it would make herbi's more appealing

pale prairie
#

all the old herbivore mains really only mained herbivore for the herds, herds can't survive giga or rex attacks without trikes sooo

#

i'm afraid not, they do still play herbivore, but not exclusively herbivore like they used to.

rigid tartan
#

imagine not being able to group with the carnivore next to you. it be like dayz "wanna follow them herbies and hunt?" sure.. soon as you turn your back this guy gonna bite you?

#

rofl

pale prairie
#

but then you couldn't tell who's who.

rigid tartan
#

u get local. thats it

#

and u need to be able to remember your friends patterns. like escape from tarkov.

#

no names.

pale prairie
#

well, that would make meeting up with your friends rather difficult

vestal rune
#

no it wouldn't

rigid tartan
#

not really if u know the map. but the point is it wouldnt HURT the carnni's

vestal rune
#

discord would totally ruin that

rigid tartan
#

you say that fire.... amount of times ive been friendly fired on tarkov.... so much "IS THAT YOU? IS THIS YOU?"

pale prairie
#

a system that punishes new players that don't know the map perfectly? sounds great!

rigid tartan
#

it makes it easier but not flawless.

teal grotto
#

@pale prairie well that too.... but you gotta remember also @rigid tartan whispers into ear discord exists*

vestal rune
#

it would possibly cause problems if you ever fight another pack of the same species, but aside from that it would be meaningless

rigid tartan
#

arent fights supposed to be chaotic 😄

vestal rune
#

just the removal of a QoL thing that wouldn't cause any change, just make the game more annoying

#

no?

#

in packs not

rigid tartan
#

far as im concerned im cool with all herbi's becoming A.I just spit balling, feel bad for all the peeps complaining theyr less fun 😉

vestal rune
#

there's definetly possibility to make herbi gameplay fun

indigo sun
#

If herbivores didnt get constantly fucked over by carnivore players that were whining cause they didnt roll over and present their bellies to be killed, then maybe it wouldnt be more reasonable for herbivores to actually become ai.

vestal rune
#

being the prey can be quite exhilarating, you just need to find things to do the rest of the time

rigid tartan
#

@valid zephyr @pale prairie I've got it. ok same scenario. walled off area. juvis only. no cracks or tunnels just as soon as u hit grow. you're moved randomly to main island

indigo sun
#

I love herbivores, but currently theyre bland and most dont stand much of a chance, besides great para players, decent diablo players, and an actual group of five trikes
It's very fun to be prey, I love being able to either lose my predator or give it a good fight. I enjoy it a ton. Currently there's not much good though. Apexes are everywhere, herds have no defense against them because no one thinks to change numbers at all apparently, and I cant remember anything stated for herbivores beyond not getting strains but getting something else, and that something else was never elaborated on

#

Sorry for the paragraph

vestal rune
#

hardly a paragraph

indigo sun
#

It looks like it to me

vestal rune
#

also how are those the only groups that stand a chance?

indigo sun
#

Well others do

#

But mainly though, they have the best chances from what I've seen

#

Gallis too

vestal rune
#

gallis are fucking ridiculously survivable

#

ye

indigo sun
#

Oh those were supposed to be in there but i rewrote it to add trike and forgot to put galli back in

#

Whoops

vestal rune
#

and dryos are quite good, even if part of that is because loss means very little

#

oh lol

#

and maias too?

rigid tartan
#

gallis and dryo pointless lol

vestal rune
#

how are they pointless?

rigid tartan
#

what role do they serve 😂

vestal rune
#

what...

#

what do you mean

#

what role do they serve?

rigid tartan
#

other than juvi killers ofc

vestal rune
#

one's an easy to play as survival expert, and the other one is a incredibly good runner

indigo sun
#

Also theyre fun

vestal rune
#

I've had the most fun in the game as a galli not gonna lie

#

and what's fun is all that fucking matters

indigo sun
#

I love playing dryo, especially in a little communal area by a lake

rigid tartan
#

ok keep telling yourself theyr fun. the community disagrees.

vestal rune
#

what the fuck are you on

indigo sun
#

I'm sorry who's disagreeing? I havent seen it

rigid tartan
#

😂not on anything. just the numbers of them vs everything else

indigo sun
#

Most people who play them say its pretty damn fun

vestal rune
#

I've seen plenty of gallis

rigid tartan
#

🙄 ok

vestal rune
#

not so much dryos but they're sort of a special thing

indigo sun
#

Just cause theres not a ton of them doesnt mean people hate them or anything

rigid tartan
#

😂

#

I didn't say people hate them

#

I love dryos

#

doesn't make them more fun than others

vestal rune
#

this isn't comparitive

#

no one's saying that galli is more fun then the others

#

just that it's fun in general

rigid tartan
#

no. no one's saying it. but the number of players playing them reflect it. that's all

#

same with herbi vs carni

#

ones more fun. guess which

vestal rune
#

one has more uptime where you do stuff

#

tbh herbi and carni gameplay are just as fun, it's just that carnis have more activity to do making it more consistently fun

#

hopefully the devs will be able to fix that in the future

indigo sun
#

Carnivores have more going for them at the moment and theyre easy to grow cause ai spawns in the mouth and they move more cause theres a higher promise of food

vestal rune
#

ye

#

I imagine once AI becomes more proper, herbis will became more popular on the simple basis that there's less work to get the food as herbis

indigo sun
#

I think theres also a lower chance of carnivores getting instantly killed when they move

barren zephyr
#

there are more rexes than ceras and rex is fucking asthma bruh boring

finite perch
#

@night mountain i big agree on this one, i suggested the same a long time ago. sitting for too long when not on a nest should have a penalty, like disabling growth

sick crescent
#

@night mountain what does that mean

brittle bough
#

smh galli isnt pointless, its the designated juvi, carno, and utah punter

sick crescent
#

I’m confused a lil bit

#

Acro thing

finite perch
#

^

#

if juvis get pressured with velos, pressure the larger carnivores with larger ai

#

each 'stam bar' of wait increases the changes exponentially. you wont start the % chance until 2 your stam when resting off of a nest, and rig the food value so that its like velo: it gives an inordinately low amount of food

#

that or have it skip being ribs

#

you stand up and get 1 bleed, lacerations all over ur legs lol

#

i mean ur a multi-ton dinosaur, resting for too longs gotta hurt

#

also: additionally, a check on if the creature is bleeding should be implemented 😬 so we're not spawning acros on people recovering from acros

sick crescent
#

Fuck afk growth

#

Although

#

Sometimes you just have to afk so

#

If they have a little pause but were still active recently?

north vector
#

I tried to help a para juvie grow

#

He ran off a cliff

finite perch
#

well thats what i mean by reaching your third stam bar before spawns

#

you can sit, rest, kinda relax a little, but overdoing it is worth punishment

barren zephyr
#

I would rather the ai didnt spawn on players at all. I think it would be better if ai herds spawned randomly and migrated around the map. As far as afk goes, simply giving juvies something fun to do gameplay wise would go along way in encouraging them to not afk. Such as my juvie gameplay suggestion from a couple days ago.

finite perch
#

i feel like its apples and oranges on the whole juvis having fun / people afk-growing rexes because the risk is just too high

#

i think making hiding also risky would encourage the players to be more bold

loud vine
#

If you read my suggestion, I did make a sharknado reference, shush.

#

And goodbye.

paper oriole
#

make them buck AFKers into orbit

violet magnet
#

people AFK grow because they're weak slow juvies who can get trotted down and oneshotted by pretty much everything bigger than them and it isn't worth it to travel for risk of being seen, so until that part's fixed AFK growing is gonna be a thing

#

it's a problem, for sure, but the main issue is why it's a problem
