People will learn that Deinosuchus inhabit that lake and will stay away from it.
#general-feedback-discussion
thorny lynx
10m deino is fine
long heath
Deinos are ambush predators.
grave karma
who the hell said 28 foot deino
grave karma
you're the one who wants a 39 foot deino
long heath
Eventually word spreads about Deinosuchus in that lake.
Dinos stop coming.
Deinos most likely won't be able to sustain their numbers off fish.
sage helm
So instead they go to a different lake that has another deino
sage helm
Will there even be flooding?
long heath
I don't think staying in one place your entire life is fun.
Especially when you heavily rely on things to come to you.
Say I was a Deinosuchus at...I dunno, Twins.
This is just for example.
sage helm
The point of ambush dinos is to sit and wait in one place
They are typically slower
rely on high pop areas
long heath
A herd passes through and suddenly I snag one of the herd members.
Herd members fuck off because they know there are Deinosuchus in the water and it isn't safe.
Suddenly no more food.
sage helm
Thats fine
long heath
Then those herds tell their friends on Discord.
sage helm
since you have a whole body which will last a while
long heath
And almost everyone steers clear from the lake.
sage helm
And if deinos have slow metabolism like typical crocs...
long heath
They can still starve.
Point is at some point they're going to want to move around.
Because the most exciting bit about a Deinosuchus's gameplay is the ambush.
But they won't be able to get that ambush if nobody is around TO ambush.
So essentially you'll be sitting in the water with nothing to do for hours.
It's like sitting in a bath tub.
But you don't have toys, bubbles or even music and some candles if you're into that.
Plus the water is cold.
It gets stale.
gritty helm
I wouldn't be surprised if the new maps will have rivers connecting the big-ish lakes together allowing Deino to migrate without going on land tbh
that way Deino isn't forced to migrate on land if it doesn't want to
thorny lynx
Deino won't have to worry about literally anything. All it has to do is grab hold of a leg and then roll
But deino won't be able to death roll :(
night mountain
im gonna laugh when deino is obvious as hell because of clear water everywhere
Gee i wonder where I should drink from in this lake
barren zephyr
😂 😂 😂
Deino thinking is super camo and lurks around for prey , but herbis see it as clear as day

@past valve there is going to be a way point system in some way im not 100% sure how tho
past valve
Ok
blazing charm
@outer lion Acrocanthosaurus neeeds so much more than just a new model and some changed stats, every playable that's added to survival needs some kind of gimmick or mechanic, and as it currently stands Acrocanthosaurus' niche is pretty much taken up by Giga, so you'd need to think outside the box.
outer lion
damn. You're right
slender spindle
400 heal sitting is higher then gigas 350ish
iirc
if it keep the stam (i hope not) then 35km is good but
then allo is gonna get hunted alot
34.4km for allo
well if giga (in the giga rework) it becomes a sauropod hunter then acro can by a mid hunter much to a lot of peoples hatred for giga rn
acro can do it but as the mid tier variant
blazing charm
Mid tier hunter is such a broad term.
slender spindle
also 5,000 instead of 5,500 health would do
blazing charm
It'd still need some kind of unique ability or quality.
slender spindle
rex has bb what does any other dino have?
slender spindle
ok
blazing charm
See where I am going with this?
slender spindle
yes
blazing charm
What can Acro do that's any different?
slender spindle
well this talk don't matter acro gonna be AI
i don't like it but
thats what they doing
slender spindle
ok
blazing charm
Come up with a valid reason to make it a playable.
But nope, the moment the word AI is uttered, all hope is lost.
slender spindle
i would love acro survival
i do have stats and abilities that i would give every dino (even not in the isle)
barren zephyr
yeah ok but you would really need an reason to be a playable
slender spindle
well yeah jaffad is right thats how dondi thinks sooo thats how we have to think
soooo 0% chance of tarbosaurus
acro looks different from the other dinos sooo it gets a pass but it really doesn't offer much
slender spindle
yeah
barren zephyr
tell me, what makes it different?
you just keep saying you just want int
but thats it
whats the reason behind it
slender spindle
then i said its gonna be AI
barren zephyr
to add a dino
slender spindle
did you not read what i typed?
barren zephyr
yes, it seems like you want acro
but know its prolly going to be AI
so i dont get this discussion
slender spindle
the other guy wanted acro i say i loved the idea
barren zephyr
ah ye
slender spindle
barren zephyr
i read that
barren zephyr
i didnt?
slender spindle
barren zephyr
if you think im hostile, thats honestly your problem.
yeah you dont get. people want acro
slender spindle
no me and the other guy were talking then you butted in
barren zephyr
but only say bc they just simply want it
give no niche, no intresting thigns for the dino
that are not smilar to giga alrdy
or any other dino
tldr, acro is unneccessary
slender spindle
i said giga is getting a rework so if acro was gonna be playable it can pick up were giga left and be the mid tier hunter but as a mid tier itself
slender spindle
its never gonna happen
barren zephyr
ye
slender spindle
thats my point
barren zephyr
ah
slender spindle
lol
blazing charm
This is still going on?
slender spindle
@outer lion acro would be good with 5,000 health, 500 damage and 20 bleed with 35 secs of stam and 35km/h i think this sounds good and 400 down to 250 healing while sitting as gigas is about 350
and no im just trying to actually talk about the suggestion and make some improvements apon it
barren zephyr
kay then
slender spindle
bc you know the suggestion is a big if that will never happen and its just nice to talk about "IF"s
slender spindle
why not?
barren zephyr
i mean. its supposed to be pseudo apex
slender spindle
still gets smacked but sucho
barren zephyr
where my small tier talk at 
slender spindle
has it should really if its faster then sucho then sucho should out turn it
slender spindle
we can go to off topic and talk about small dinos
barren zephyr
since dondi said he wanted more small dinosaurs, and announced 8 new ones, i just hope some of them are small tier
slender spindle
same
slender spindle
no more apexes plz dondi
barren zephyr
herb apexes tho
slender spindle
oh yes
barren zephyr
35kms acro
slender spindle
spino last one at least for a while
barren zephyr
55 km/s acro
slender spindle
35km/h with shit turn
barren zephyr
Why do ppl want faster than midtier base speed for their shitty apexes...
barren zephyr
who knows
slender spindle
so?
yeah
acro has the "don't touch" me role ingame
1 bite dies from bleed*
do you want to see my acro stats? (not retaliated to the isle at all)
if so ill put it in offtopic
compact flicker
Itd be nice for Acros stats to fit its size more 👍
barren zephyr
You wouldn't need the filter if you didn't get banned Nah I'm jk that's a really good idea
blazing charm
@barren zephyr I'm all for giving options for those with difficult hearing or sight, but I feel like subtitles can be abused, specifically on the range it would pick up on certain sounds, let's say someone is playing and doesn't hear a dinosaur call because they're distracted or it's so far way it mixes with the ambience, but they are notified of the sound because of the subtitles.
You could argue that issue can be solved by only picking up on incredibly obvious sounds, but then the feature has very limited use.
Just my thoughts.
barren zephyr
Ah I didn’t think of that, thank you
sage helm
Hmm
well a possible solution could be that things at that range arent identifiable
Or have have multiple dinos that it could be
Or something
barren zephyr
It’s fine lol, I’ll wing the game like I am now 😂
sage helm
I think its a great idea to have it accessible for people who are hard of hearing
Its just hard to balance
barren zephyr
Yeah but if it doesn’t work awell, was a good idea 🙂
crimson phoenix
Subtitles are really abuseable, Overwatch added them and every pro player is using them despite not needing them because they give a lot of information
night mountain
Yeah thats the big issue with it. Theres no way to have them without it being strictly better than the actual sound
esp in a game where sneaking up on shit is so important
crimson phoenix
Bushes can rustle without anything rustling them, but footsteps only happen when something is walking, subtitles make stealth nearly impossible.
on another note of stealth, the footsteps suggestion. I would love an option to maybe even be able to mute your own footsteps
when I'm trike I turn my volume way down because the constant thundering of my thickness is deafening
While each player is different, I've found it's a lot easier to sneak up on a trike compared to a shant (shants have a different footstep sound and it's a lot quieter) and I would credit this entirely to the footsteps, with the footsteps either being louder than me or them turning their volume down
past valve
Subtitles also ruin the suspense of the game by not knowing what made that certain sound, I love the mysteriousness around the whole island with strange sounds here and there
valid zephyr
@barren zephyr I'm super pro that idea. I really struggle to play carni due to my hearing and lack of directional sound (though even using my decent headset I still can't hear the AI). Subtitles and little direction indicators would make life so much nicer for hard of hearing people. People with good hearing can hear a single AI call half a km away in dense forest, then turn and run straight to it.
I don't think it should tell you the actual dino call though. Should just tell you what the noise is so you still have to learn it. (aka dibble 1 call is: bwbrbrbrbrbrb)
barren zephyr
Yeah that’s a good idea 😃
valid zephyr
Maybe crouch walking would cause no subtitles to be generated and no direction indicators, so you can't see when a dino is sneaking up.
barren zephyr
Yes sneaking would have no sound
valid zephyr
Dibble 1 call: bwrbrbrbrbrb
Allo 1 call: aaarrrrgggghhhh
Utah 1 call: BORK
Stuff like that so it doesn't tell you the actual dino.
barren zephyr
Yes and you cant hear crouched sounds or anything that gives it away but still gives you the suspense of the game without giving out location of the sound to much
valid zephyr
Would show vibrations in the corner of the screen, and the closer you are to the noise the more focused they would be, so you still have to home in on the sound and don't get a perfect indicator.
valid zephyr
or at least reduces the range things show up
barren zephyr
I love the sound indicator idea!!
violet magnet
can we just appreciate the accuracy of the calls depicted
AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH
BORK
valid zephyr
I should have added the ava I heard, but not sure what they say.
valid zephyr
Keeping the noises as just their described sounds will give you the same amount of info hearing players get.
pulsar orchid
How about, with that idea you had @valid zephyr , those green things pointing out sounds were distortions on the screen that took a sharp eye to see? Such as what you'd see when heat comes off of pavement in the distance, or "fake water". Just a bit of a blur shaking around at the top of the screen - makes it easy for someone paying attention to see sounds being made, but to those just chatting it up, it keeps the stealthy things stealthy
not sure how to differentiate between herbi or carni calls though
valid zephyr
That could work too, maybe the louder the noise the more obvious they are.
pulsar orchid
Exactly
valid zephyr
Aka if a rex 1 calls 2metres behind you, they're not subtle.
pulsar orchid
Yes! and it can be in the direction heard
to someone who can hear, it'd be annoying, but to someone who has trouble, it could be a lifesaver
valid zephyr
somone who could hear would never turn the option on in the first place.
I imagine you would have to go into the menu and hit the checkbox.
valid flower
@barren zephyr Well that just ruins the game
barren zephyr
It was just a thought
valid flower
It ruins the aspect of the game
The game won’t be scary or challenging at all.
something big calls Oh wait that’s just a para lmfao lemme go kill it
barren zephyr
Well it helps the people who can’t hear actually play the game
valid flower
Instead, something big calls Oh wow, let me go inspect it.
Pretty sure there isn’t deaf people
And if there is they would suggest it.
barren zephyr
Um your talking to one bro
valid flower
Oh, I’m sorry.
barren zephyr
It heaps with learning where the sound comes from and such
barren zephyr
It’s okay but remember it might not be for you but it would be so helpful for me
valid flower
Yeah I understand.
barren zephyr
All good though, just a thought 🙂 I like the game how it is just don’t know if my heart can take turning around and seeing something in my face I didn’t hear coming 😂
But all well 🙂
valid zephyr
@valid flower we already came up with an alternate idea where the sound is labelled how it sounds, rather than what dino it is
which means deaf players would still need to learn the sounds
aka an anky calls means you would just see "Honk"
on the screen
rather than it saying "Anky 1 call"
barren zephyr
So pretty much more learning of the game to learn the sounds you hear, I need to learn the sounds displayed. So you can hear a giga and know it’s a giga by the call, I see the giga sound (no idea what sound) and have a list of what it could be and narrow it down til I see it
I really like these ideas, I hope the dev team takes a look 🙂 excited for the recode 🙂
barren zephyr
Pin me if this idea comes up again 🙂
proud crystal
it would be really nice if it was combined with jenkens' concept for it + a checkbox in settings so you can turn it off if you don't need it and in servers like deathmatch or sandbox where everyone spam calls
valid zephyr
yeah a settings checkbox would be essential, with it off by default
not everyone likes screen clutter
violet magnet
i'm just picturing a utah F-call as being a simple "bork" and the 1-call broadcast being "BORK", in big letters and the word shakes
maybe the word gets bigger and starts to shake the closer the call is?
violet magnet
also
"somone who could hear would never turn the option on in the first place."
they might turn it on just to have that extra indication of which direction calls are coming from. Maybe if their headphones are bad or if directional sound doesn't work
or as a hackery exploit thing
valid zephyr
That is why the furthur away the sound is, the mosre loose the sound indicator would be. A far off sound might only display which 45 degrees it's coming from
@cyan flame now wants to hear our text interpretations of all the dino calls. :/

re: dino footsteps, i've mentioned before that large animals are actually really quiet (usually b/c of skin/fat beneath the feet). Elephants can actually creep right up on a man without being heard. They set their feet down gently; stomping would destroy joints/bones. Vibrations aren't even needed; just make all footfalls quieter!
tepid gate
To be fair, the main problem with the thundering footsteps is that there's this explosive sound every time you walk on the grass(water has it to some extent as well) however whenever you're on some other type of terrain the footsteps seem fine imo(the problem is that the vast majority of the maps is well... grass)
sharp jungle
my suggestion was mysteriously deleted.
blazing charm
Probably because it was just a one-liner that gave no actual reasons for being implemented?
sharp jungle
maybe so.
feral wedge
Correct.
sharp jungle
can't really think of any other reason other than gigas are apexes and it would be kind of unfair to bar giga players from having magnas.
feral wedge
It's a lore creature. Not an equal rights for animals benefit.
blazing charm
^
sharp jungle
where in the lore does it explicitly state gigas cannot mutate into magnas
feral wedge
Where did it say that magnas were mutated into?
blazing charm
^ Not to mention not every creature has to have a Magna counterpart, those specific creatures may be more important to the "lore" than others.
sharp jungle
true, but considering this game's track record, you'd think magna would just be another strain
sharp jungle
well then i was wrong, and thank you for clearing up my misconceptions
topaz epoch
Best to just keep in mind that we don't know anything about strains and magnas except what the devs want us to know, and that so far is very very little
Literally everything that's been said about them except what's come from the devs' mouth is speculative at best
sharp jungle
i guess we'll just have to wait and see

"SANDBOX"
herra and alberto has been updated in sandbox before, fixed model for alberto and damage buff for herra.
Sandbox dinosaurs can be updated and you survival people are not making any sense.
patent spade
@shell garnet i would say if they spam bite it should use stamina, would make players have to be more strategic in their bites instead of just alt turn spam biting and letting the bite drag do all the work, plus it would suck to leave a player completely defenseless no matter the dino
violet magnet
@barren zephyr hell, camara is a sandbox dino and it just got a whole new round of animations 
never got the "iT's SAnDBoX" argument
tepid gate
The argument is simple: it's not in survival :. it's low priority. It's not a part of the current roster and balance. Camara had an update and it seemed like it was being prepared for being added to survival, will it be? Only time will tell.
blazing charm
Sandbox are animals are usually a very low priority, besides I think people are forgetting that the game is currently going through an overhaul, so there's literally zero point in updating the stats of any of the animals.
lilac swallow
Why bother wasting time on balancing something that isnt playable?
lilac swallow
If its only playable on a "mess around" sandbox Mode It isnt playable
manic ibex
So, if it is a playable then it isn't a playable?
You would be quite surprised to see the number of people that are actually playing in sanbox in maps like V3 and Thenyaw.
pulsar lake
As we know, all dinosaurs are getting a rework, or almost.
We know that allosaurus is one of the reworked dinosaur so maybe it will have a model more like that with this pattern.
However, different patterns are something to do in this game for variety!
thorny lynx
@valid elk Crocodiles bury their nests underground.
Their eggs are very nutritious to all kinds of animals, so they cannot afford to leave their nests laying around for all to see.
valid elk
I should probably change that then
thorny lynx
Yeah.
valid elk
A mound of dirt with eggs hidden under seems a bit...much
thorny lynx
Yeah, they make sure to cover the nest like turtles do
They make their nest look unassuming, but monitor lizards, birds, baboons, and other animals can tell when mama croc isn't hovering around her nest and even harass her until she has no choice to go back into the water because she is overheating.
Their eggs are pretty tasty by animal standards, which is kind of sad.
valid elk
Then again, they do lay a ton of eggs
thorny lynx
80 at most for the Nile croc.
limpid dove
honest to god that allo posted as a suggestion w/ the spikes looks half-hypo half-not. lowkey looks fire af and i wouldn't have a single issue with it being part of the game.
that's just me
i think the design is cool. lol
sharp jungle
Imagines birth of a wish from nier playing when apexes fight. Situational music sounds great
crimson phoenix
The allo in suggestions looks like a boosted allo (hyper or magna). It looks to "advanced" or whatever you want to call it compared to the other creatures we have to be just a standard dino (just my opinion)
thorny lynx
If that allo was hyper allo in the future with a jaw that opens 90+ degrees and acts like an axe, spiky tail, hypo scutes and plates on the back, I would enjoy that.
barren zephyr
What do the timers mean?
jovial moss
they're working on what you suggested or plan on implementing it in the future already but it will take time to get there
barren zephyr
Oh awesome
slender spindle
@potent sonnet i like your giga doc but i see some things that might go wrong with it
like gigas bleed was the problem for mid tiers and you keep the trot the same (trot is the big complaint) im fine with the trot but with the new attack "flesh grazing bite" seems a bit over the top
this ability can be a passive like rexes bb (but not for combat) like attacks grant small amounts of food, instead of more damage and bleed with it
sage helm
Trot is more of the issue than the bleed tho
Since giga 1 shots most mid tiers
And can trot then down till the end of time
slender spindle
i would say nerf it to the point were its still faster then rexes trot but not what it is now and buff the base speed a bit 32ish km and not nerf the stam
slender spindle
i meant keep it faster then rex
sage helm
If we take away the one thing that makes it an endurance pred
slender spindle
then why were you complaining about it?
sage helm
Im not complaining about nerfing it at all. Im arguing against nerfing it to where its just slightly faster than rex
Its like
Cerato
He was nerfed to the point where he doesnt even do his job because he was too strong in the past
slender spindle
i only said it to please the giga haters i would like to keep the trot
slender spindle
i thought you were someone that hated on gigas trot and i didn't want to argue
lilac swallow
I could be considered a giga hater, but i know that nerfing something to cerato level is not the solution
sage helm
Eh I think its just a tad too fast but if only minuscule
ionic comet
Giga compensates by having a good trot speed, and I think its fine with how it is
slender spindle
^same
slender spindle
it is a bit too fast compared to everyother dino
lilac swallow
Giga should have a fast trot, but i think having the second best trot is a bit too much
slender spindle
3rd, 4th maybe id say
slender spindle
dilo
lilac swallow
Dilo
sage helm
Oh
slender spindle
yeah
anyways my main point was the ability
the "flesh grazing bite"
it is a bit over the top
sage helm
I could see it only working on sauropods
And poooosssiiiblly trike?
But that would be stretching it
slender spindle
if a small thing runs at you they gonna die
ether 1 shot from pure damage and if not bleed out instantly
sage helm
Yup
slender spindle
although "IF" this does come to the game i would imagine rex not want to fight giga head on and thats not what i think they want for the match up
so the lesser approach of just like rexes ability be a passive and happen on attacks
like attacks grant small amounts of food
or lower targets bleed resistance
i think that was going to be gigas ability before they scraped it
the brace ability is fine i think if the giga could still trot
but not run
giving a 50% blunt force damage reduction (so the tail hits)
and still be able to attack along with it
valid zephyr
paras trot should be one of the faster ones imo. To make it great at migrating.
valid zephyr
at the moment it's a fighter not a runner. :/
sage helm
At the moment its neither
It runs it dies
It fights it dies
But there have been rumors that its getting some love so fingers crossed
slender spindle
yeah
past valve
I’m literally maining as para even tho it succs
sly jackal
personally i think the only 3 current officials that should not regain stam unless sitting are trike, giga and rex
the para should have the kind of stamina and maybe even speed that the shant has
and more agility
-rex: should be an agile and really deadly fighter, i'ts main prey should be actually (sucho) para and trike, but it should be the slowest dinosaur in the whole game in every regard. and overall after the stupid damage multiplier is out of the window, the mass should be about 8 ton and health maybe a bit more. i do not even think that it should have an actual run in its regular form and the top speed at any time should be no more then 34km/hour
nocturne sonnet
excuse me we get new damage sxstem and para is too slow
sly jackal
ah, and how does that damage system work ?any word on it?
nocturne sonnet
no but weight wont be a thing anaymore in it
sly jackal
indeed, but still, just saying that even though weight kinda should be irrelevant, it kinda would be nice if in the stats the weight stats are somewhat realistic. i know, the devs do not care that much about it, so does most of the fan base, but still, we all know there will be people who want some things to be right
for an example, giving the rex more health then weight, simply to show like: this one is actually more robust build then most conmparable dinosaurs/is known to have sustained a lot of injuries in certain examples, but recovered from them
vs maybe an oposite example, like how the current sandbox spinosaurus is currently having its weight be more then its health
-that being said, i think the giga should have a mass of 10 ton and health of 10 000 or something, so it could counter a rex better....and have less bite force and more bleed, like currently, but in this case done balanced enough so that a giga could survive one bite without bonebreak(if that still will be implemented in some form, kinda hope it will, but not like how it is in its current format) and still deliver a bleeder bite and balance chances out for 50 percent in favor of each
as for current still in sandbox hell spinosaur:, that one should become a special variation of the "aquatic" spinosaur, since this latter one is the real deal. and i think this latter one should kinda be like the current sandbox spino, evenly matched against the giga(and once balanced, also the rex) albeit be slower and less agile, but just be a fast swimmer
overall this would make the spino dinosaur of the lake, the rex the dinosaur of thenot so dense forests and the giga be more of a dinosaur that lives in the open(if it gets more speed, less agility and more stam then the rex that is)
in the mean time i think the acro, should kinda be a bit like the current giga(a lot of stam, capable of speed beyond the 37-39km/hour barrier), but with less health and thus also a lot less bite force, and kinda be the non toxic dilophosaurus of the apexes, and have excelent nightvision compared to the actual 3 apexes
and before i rant to much, the devs might disagree, but not having the shantungosaurus as a playable dinosaur is a waste. If the stamina should compare to that of the trike and the stomp should do not more damage then what is needed to kill an apex, it seems fair game to me, especially since the shant would not have bleed
past valve
And make it slower
I mean current shant is as fast as allo in a straight line with allo being like 0.5 km/h faster
elder swan
@fresh pelican for your third suggestion, that would be easily abused; it has been in the past. a while ago people would alt-f4 the game, shut down their computer or disconect their internet to immediately poof when getting attacked, and the server would roll back their dino by like 2 minutes, so they would do that to combat log, or during long fights to insta-heal their dinos and jump back into the battle. I'm not saying people with crappy internet should be punished for something beyond their control, but if they have an advantage becuase if slow or patchy connections, other players will find a way to abuse that advantage.
fresh pelican
You bring up a good point, I hadn't thought about that, nor had I known that a similar mechanic had been abused in the past. Wasn't really thinking when I posted that, but i agree that could very easily be abused. Nvm then lol
indigo sun
@proven bolt ai literally spawns next to players. It should be easy as hell finding ai because it spawns based on the player's hunger. If you're having issues finding ai it is not the game's fault. Not like it's supposed to be easy growing an apex anyway, so i dont see a problem if people are having trouble growing them.
Ai also screams for you to come munch its ass so seriously, if you cant find ai you need to get better at recognizing it.
proven bolt
Yeah if it don’t spawn in a whole hour of playing the game like you here no tacos no Ava’s for a whole hour something must be up if nothing spawns for a whole hour
indigo sun
What's the player cap of the server you play on
indigo sun
Yeah theres your issue
proven bolt
And I get that 200 is a lot there’s your food there but you get in trouble for hunting those people on the servers so you can’t do shit the only thing you can eat is ai but it doesn’t spawn
indigo sun
Current ai, because someone couldnt write proper code, kinda gets fucked up past 100-110 i think players. Playing on higher cap servers will fuck up the ai. Ai's gonna work a lot different post-recode so it wont be spawning by players anymore so it wont be relying on players to spawn
So you wont be waiting ages for ai to spawn near you. You'll just have to look for it properly
paper oriole
LOL "its so hard for any juvie apex to grow" is this for real
indigo sun
I can see how it'd be hard if the ai doesnt spawn properly but personally i really dont see a problem with someone having trouble growing a rex or giga
proven bolt
That’s because you don’t like it when they kill you but I’m not one of those Apex is that hunt down players I preferred to hunt down the AI to eat because I like to give players the ability to grow as well but I can’t do that without ai spawning so thank God it will be better in recode
indigo sun
Uhh i actually dont give a shit if i get killed by an apex but i do care when they end up being 70-80% of a server because it is the most unbalanced ecosystem ever
proven bolt

also choosing to play as an apex carnivore while also not wanting to hunt players is kinda hmmm
crimson phoenix
Yea when you have like 200 people online ai spawns get a bit whack but you can deal with this. If you start to starve you can log out and log back in either at a lower player count or just after the server restarts. 9 times out of 10 you will get ai spawning in the first minute
proven bolt
Just forget it if you guys are going to put me down I don’t fucking care just drop it
sonic cloud
People are putting you down for giving a bad suggestion that fixes a problem that doesn’t exist.
Any problems you seem to be having with apex seem to be entirely self imposed
(You don’t want to hunt as a carnivore, playing on a server that prohibits hunting).
You can easily fix those problems by finding a better server and choosing to hunt players.
People have offered you easy solutions and yet you still act as if there is a problem.
Like what are people supposed to do? Tell you “yeah you’re playing the faction that’s designed to hunt players but if you don’t want to do the one thing your faction is meant to do you get rewarded with a free apex.”
Like if you don’t want to hunt players herbivores will be far more suited to your playstyle. If you don’t want to do the things that carnivores are designed to do then you simply don’t have to play carnivore

I mean- some gore shouldn’t be eaten by some creatures. Not that they couldn’t irl, but some folks are only able to hold out on yhe gore they find
shell garnet
There should be random sized gores spawing around the map. That would solve this problem.
And we sure need bigger ai. Mabe a dibble ai or a maia ai
frail sigil
@shell garnet Keep it to serious suggestions only. Your extra comments were not needed.
indigo sun
2 is your mating call. Use it. As for mating mechanics, i cant think of any ones that wouldnt be.. absolutely bad
This dude
Postin fuckin jesus and an irradiated chicken
shell garnet
cmon guys
in the game you just lay eggs out of thin air
@frail sigil you could've just delete the unnecessary comment but not the whole suggestion. It was all family friendly material :/
frail sigil
With the joke comments I considered it to be a troll suggestion. If you wish to repost it without any comments I will allow it but this is a warning.
indigo sun
Males will be involved in the future but any actual "mating" will not happen
It just wont
indigo sun
I dont see a need for anything more than nest making
indigo sun
They will
They'll be involved in nest making and poppin out babies in the future. Shit aint gonna change right now though
indigo sun
Like what
outer nebula
@shell garnet people been trying and the verdict is noooooooooooo
indigo sun
They dont do anything but smoosh their faces together and i doubt dinos are gonna be doing that
lilac swallow
Is either porn or straight up just (like your Minecraft example) Pink Hearts floating everywhere
shell garnet
@outer nebula wouldnt it be great tho
shell garnet
why dude
outer nebula
because why would that be needed for a game for survival
lilac swallow
Is a progress, at least he dont really want Dino porn like most mating suggesters
indigo sun
Its absolutely uneccessary and if i was bryan i'd hate myself having to make that
shell garnet
There could be an option when you and your pair "mate calls"
Like
F to Fertilize
no animation needed fam
indigo sun
Or we could just stick to the nest
And not deal with mating calls or whatever
Or "fertilization"
shell garnet
lol
last heath
intense lewd staring contest
indigo sun
Just have them work in a nest
shell garnet
start making a dirt pile
indigo sun
Hell yeah id love to make a dirt pile with my boyfriend
last heath
we aint dinosaurs my guy, we be mammal
indigo sun
Sounds great
grand brook
...what is even is this discussion anymore
valid zephyr
-Female places nest. That logs female as parent.
-Male then clicks on nest to log male as parent.
-Hatchlings can then pick their own skin by picking from the parents colours for each slot.
shell garnet
Im kidding jesus
last heath
nah, male makes nest, female does aboogamagooba magic and eggs spawn
shell garnet
Seems legit
thats what i would like to see in a realistic survival game which is supposed to make us feel like dinosaurs
but yeah
indigo sun
Its not supposed to be realistic.. i mean its sort of realistic cause most animals look like how they should
But this game aint realism friend
shell garnet
it will all change when 5 guys with ak47 chasing us
cyan flame
Mating calls would be useful, mating anims.. less so :p
indigo sun
Mating calls arent needed
shell garnet
Yes eric
indigo sun
You got chat and 2 calls
shell garnet
finnaly someone that understands
indigo sun
Chat works better
shell garnet
5 mating call
outer nebula
just use the 2 call
cyan flame
Eh, chat requires you to find someone first
indigo sun
2 call to get a friend "Hey wanna be my mate?" There we go
cyan flame
Yeah except friendly is a bit more.. diverse than just that
indigo sun
Damn fat fingers
grand brook
different pitched 2 calls for each sex is the most I would include and it's pushing it
shell garnet
how can they understand if you just want to share food or fricc
lilac swallow
Just type in chat "want to place a nest?"
cyan flame
I'd see a use in a broadcast version mating call, there's a difference between just looking for a pack/herd, and specifically for someone else willing to nest, since I imagine nesting is costly
indigo sun
Well thats where the chat comes in
last heath
be male, place nest, do a dance
cyan flame
Zorr, something like that yes
shell garnet
Lol
last heath
ladies cant resist
shell garnet
haha
indigo sun
Say "hey join my nest" or whatever the fuck itll be in the future
shell garnet
But fam
cyan flame
The idea is to let someone know "I am male/female and looking for a nesting partner" vs "I exist and am looking for a pack/herd"
shell garnet
Mating call is a special thing
shell garnet
you know what i mean
lament thorn
then find someone first before decided if you want to nest with them?
last heath
1 call to get friends, say in chat
''I REQUIRE A MATING PARTNER''
shell garnet
in ALL documentaries you will hear a mating call
lament thorn
and?
drowsy field
outer nebula
this is not a sim this is a survival game people try to learn the difference
grand brook
not all animals make mating calls though...
cyan flame
I mean sure, you could broadcast, find someone, then ask everyone you find of the right gender if they want to nest but.. :p I just figure it would be easier, but then I'd also like a difference between friendly/neutral, and threaten/submissive, and danger/back up calls so
shell garnet
i bet dinosaurs used to tho
cyan flame
I want more calls/variations in general to be more specific in what you're trying to say :p And less chat in general, especially since chat right now = noise = everyone uses discord anyway xD
shell garnet
we are Discussing which is this chat is for
last heath
well, in the words of dondi:
''I get it. You people want shit, piss and fucking.''
so I doubt we'll get anything more than what I mentioned above
indigo sun
What does it matter what dinosaurs used to do or whats in documentaries
final sundial
The 4 calls we have now are kind of all we need though?
lament thorn
5*
cyan flame
I wouldn't say so Lorantec
indigo sun
These arent real dinosaurs theyre genetic freaks
final sundial
What else is needed exactly?
drowsy field
Maybe PoT would be willing to add a mating call for the ERPer's 
wind heart
She has a point
umbral prairie
I mean there could be more calls that could be useful, but they aren't really needed imo
shell garnet
I will be a dryo and 5 call all you guys if this mating call thing becomes a thing
indigo sun
It wont become a thing though
shell garnet
just saying
cyan flame
Maybe people will mod things in anyway, might get a version with more calls in general
indigo sun
Yeah just wait for mods if you want dino fuckin
shell garnet
Dude
cyan flame
Yes, because a useful call is exactly the same as a very graphic animation right^^
shell garnet
i am still saying
indigo sun
Christ on a bike
shell garnet
i dont request any animations
cyan flame
They're not uneccesary ^^
cyan flame
You're just not getting the point I think xD
shell garnet
Just not really cool when you are born without a dad
cyan flame
No they're not
lament thorn
we have a chat
shell garnet
lol
cyan flame
You're just missing the point, or rather, you're willing to guess intent
Whereas I would like clear intent in calls
shell garnet
ITS NOT BECAUSE I DONT HAVE A Dad
shell garnet
dude
cyan flame
See, you think thats fine, I think it would be more useful, and easier, with more calls
outer nebula
nine your my hero right now XD
shell garnet
its just a suggesrion
last heath
write that you require a mating partner
final sundial
Its not supposed to be easy 4head
cyan flame
So yeah.. you're entirely missing the point it seems like :p
lament thorn
how?
final sundial
Kind of the point of the limitations
cyan flame
But that limitation is stupid Lorantec :p
lament thorn
I mean I dont understand people who nest with and nest in strangers but it still doesnt make a difference
shell garnet
so you guys dont want a mating call?
and you wont use it if it was in game
thats a big lie
lament thorn
if it was added id use it
cyan flame
Its just strange to me that you're fine with less rather than more communication
valid zephyr
Imagine the sound of the docks if mating call got added...
lament thorn
but why should it be added
cyan flame
To ease communication Blue, to not have to find you first, then see if you're the right gender, then ask, and hope for the best
umbral prairie
what's the point of it? I personally don't need a mating call when we have a broadcast, which can tell others where I am and that I want to group just as well, the nesting can easily be discussed in chat, like you still need to talk about where to nest or when anyway even with the call so it doesn't really have much of a use in my eyes
maybe I'm missing something
cyan flame
Thats what the comes down to for me
shell garnet
because i dont want to frick another weirdo at 3 am in a dinosaur game while my wife is crying in the room because that we are divorcing
cyan flame
Its ease of you knowing when you hear the call what that person want, so if you're interested, go that way, if not, go the other way
shell garnet
that is probably a guy
last heath
just, get close and talk in chat
final sundial
Not supposed to be easy
cyan flame
I don't understand why you're opposed to clearer communication instead of going through the whole meet and greet hoping for the best :p
final sundial
Survival game
cyan flame
... thats not an argument Lorantec :p
outer nebula
yes it is
lament thorn
how is a call clearer?
cyan flame
It's not "Easier to survive" cause you have better communication
lament thorn
then chat
cyan flame
No it's not Doc
lament thorn
literal human communication
final sundial
Kind of is though? Its a survival game, not easy peasy call game
cyan flame
Cause calls can be heard from a distance
But calls for clearer communication does not relate to survival
lament thorn
people already bait with the 2 call image what they will do with the mating call
outer nebula
yes its why waste time on adding calls when is better to make the game with more interesting features
shell garnet
2 call doesnt have the best range
outer nebula
thats the point
final sundial
It does though, you want the calls so you dont have to possibly risk a dangerous encounter, thats an easier survival experience
outer nebula
if for near by allies
cyan flame
No..
lament thorn
yeah because its not the broadcast
shell garnet
mating call can be like 1 call but with like a melody
cyan flame
It has nothing to do with dangerous encoutners
umbral prairie
'cmere fuck me HAH im a cannibal'
cyan flame
No idea how you got that into your mind
last heath
mating call be like:
''FUUUUUCK MEEEEE''
final sundial
You mentioned going through the whole meet and greet and hoping for the best, what else does that mean?
shell garnet
Yea for humans
cyan flame
I really don't see how a specific broadcast, or a specific danger call, or anything else, would be easier or harder for survival in general, especially since we have discord right now
final sundial
So then why need the calls?
shell garnet
Yea eric
cyan flame
Lorantec, it means I would find it useful if I could use a broadcast, the same I would use for finding a friend in general, but with a specific intent, so anyone that hears it, but isnt interested, would know and not come find me
lament thorn
if someone can justify the reason for mating calls ill back them
shell garnet
some people dont know english well in isle and they comunicate with calls
cyan flame
Its the difference between me looking for a pack, vs a mate
shell garnet
ive seen many people
lament thorn
then maybe dont nest with someone you cant talk to??
cyan flame
Instead of broadcast - Find someone - Hope for right gender - hope they want to spend time nesting
shell garnet
Yea so you cant enjoy isle without knowing english. thats what you are saying
lament thorn
literally didnt say that at all
viral creek
i know what a mating call is
cyan flame
You'd use a specific broadcast that tells your gender + implies "looking for nesting"
lament thorn
thanks for putting words in my mouth bro
viral creek
1 call + teabag + nest
cyan flame
Same with a run away call vs a back me up call, or friendly vs neutral, or threaten vs submissive
shell garnet
No but you said you shouldnt nest with people that you cannot comunucate
cyan flame
Like I said, I'd like to see more calls in general, for better communication, though as long as basic chatting leads to your death ingame, I guess calls dont matter at all, since everyone uses discord anyway xD
shell garnet
so who they will nest with
lament thorn
people they can communicate with
umbral prairie
all the calls you suggested aren't useless, but unneeded imo
shell garnet
Yea for example
outer nebula
no they said " dont nest with people you dont talk to"
shell garnet
im russian
cyan flame
Agreed on unneeded, that's fair Recode
viral creek
Ok but in all seriousness though. Mating call ain't needed. Placing a nest is enough to communicate that you want to nest
cyan flame
I never said they were needed, but I would say they're useful/helpful
cyan flame
And I can see a point of having them, its fine if you don't, but I think it would be nice, just as I woiuld like to see gestures
So you could hunt, wiothout giving yourself away in a chat f call
shell garnet
There is a reason why we have calls fam
cyan flame
Instead have head gestures, I think that would be amazing for utahs xD
lament thorn
you are talking english right now??
cyan flame
But then I don't think using outside things like discord should be a thing/needed :p
shell garnet
Are tou talking english right now? is that what you wanted to say?
cyan flame
So my calls/suggestions are of course oriented towards not needing to talk to someone outside first before playing with them
outer nebula
if you guys are going to argue and bicker take it in dms
lament thorn
no I said what I wanted to say
lament thorn
I said maybe only nest with people you can talk to and all of a sudden you are talking about how you are russian so can only play with other russians despite talking english fine here
shell garnet
calls are necessary
lament thorn
no they arent
shell garnet
Alright
lament thorn
can play an entire lifecyle without calling once
shell garnet
You dont use them then
cyan flame
They're not neccesary but would be a nice addition and does have uses, is that fair enough? :p
cyan flame
Nah you can communicate with body language only to be fair
shell garnet
Half of the community
lament thorn
actual game > 'realism' servers
shell garnet
actually
cyan flame
Though speaking of that, I'd like to see more gestures as well, especially since it's strange to coordinate a hunt in ingame chat what with F calls :p
outer nebula
um news flash this is based on the official servers they balance to "OFFICIAL GAME PLAY"
final sundial
Keep telling yourself that
cyan flame
Doesnt need realism to have use for calls though? :p
final sundial
Oh shit i cant wait to fortnite dance as my dino
cyan flame
Again, thats.. comparable you think? ^^
shell garnet
You guys realise Nycta and Asura servers hold more than half of the people currently online?
lament thorn
your point?
viral creek
I think new calls are cool and all, but like... is it really worth the effort considering they'd need to make it for every dinosaur + their lifecycle + variations of the call?
final sundial
What gestures do we have currently that we need "more"
cyan flame
If you don't have any actual arguments beyond "it's unneccesary" thats fine, but that doesn't really say much on how useful/good the idea itself is
outer nebula
they can do what ever they want
drowsy field
That says a lot about the community then 
shell garnet
wHo cArEs sEmI rEaLzm sErVerS
cyan flame
Lorantec, oh I could see quite snaps, head gestures like "Go ahead" or similar, things you'd expect from a pack of utahs or something sneaking, looking at each other, communicating silently on what to do
lament thorn
putting time and money into something that is unnecessary and could easily go unused by lots of players is just a waste
cyan flame
Of course, you could always just sit in VC in discord
viral creek
I mean they're not wrong. When suggesting something, it should be made with official servers in mind.
cyan flame
Heh, so now it's fine to let modders do the job.. xD
outer nebula
yeah what gulp said
cyan flame
I'll keep that one in mind, thanks!
shell garnet
Currently Nycta isle server has 8000+ people
cyan flame
I don't, however, think that modders should fix something that I figure should be in the base game, it's fine if you don't think it should, but hey, that's where we disagree then
outer nebula
so
final sundial
Its not fixing something, not having your calls isnt being broken
cyan flame
If you're happy with the current limited calls/"gestures" thats fine, but Im not
shell garnet
and all nycta servers are semi realism
cyan flame
Fine, modders adding things that should be in the game then
shell garnet
hmhmhmhh
cyan flame
Instead of "fixing"
shell garnet
No
final sundial
Gj
outer nebula
No offense to anthomina and is servers, but thats not how the game works, spend a day in official servers then you change your mind
cyan flame
Lorantec, well yes? Thats reasonable no? If you want something you probably do think it should be that way? Somehow, that's wrong now?
final sundial
Erik said it should, i wasnt talking to you
cyan flame
Otherwise, why do we have suggestions, if not cause we're suggesting things we think should be this way or that?
outer nebula
so
final sundial
LMAO
shell garnet
people kill each other
final sundial
KOS
outer nebula
SOOOOOOO
final sundial
People shouldnt kill eachother?
shell garnet
kos yes
outer nebula
its a bloody survival game people are allowed to kill each other
cyan flame
Well, "survival" :p
shell garnet
you think in semi realism servers we dont kill?
cyan flame
Currently we really do have delayed deathmatch rather than survival :p
final sundial
Again, who cares about semi-realism?
shell garnet
isnt it a bit fked up when a rex kills 7 allos ?
outer nebula
nope
cyan flame
Heh, isn't affinity somewhat like semirealism in some ways? :D
shell garnet
Ruining all of their day for 3 seconds of fun?
final sundial
Just dont get caught by the rex GG EZ
cyan flame
Will be interesting to see
outer nebula
if the allos are dumb enough to continue to fight a rex thats their fault
barren zephyr
bruh
lament thorn
if a rex manages to kill 7 allos he deserves the reward of their bodies
manic ibex
^
shell garnet
Mabe all allos resting next to each other
cyan flame
Now you're kind of going offtopic, unless there's a suggestion concerning that? :p
shell garnet
and rex successfully ambushes and 1 shots all of them
outer nebula
yet again thats their fault not the rex
lament thorn
pay attention then
shell garnet
you think offical servers are better?
outer nebula
yes\
lament thorn
yes
final sundial
So what youre saying is you dont like how the game is meant to be played @shell garnet
valid zephyr
That's an issue of collisions. All dinos can sit in the same space.
manic ibex
KoS is an excuse made up for people who can't accept their own mistakes.
cyan flame
Currently official servers arent much survival, but we'll get there :p
valid zephyr
allowing the rex to one shot them all
shell garnet
then why 90% of the people play unofficial?
drowsy field
barren zephyr
bruh
shell garnet
while officals are not full
barren zephyr
pepega
lament thorn
90% ah yes
final sundial
because babies want to be baby'd
shell garnet
tell me
lament thorn
where are your sources
shell garnet
90% mabe more
cyan flame
Or because people don't want a deatmatch? xD
barren zephyr
maybe* btw
manic ibex
or maybe 20%
drowsy field
because the little timmy's need to be babied and get their milfs to pay for their dinos
shell garnet
Lollll
barren zephyr
valhalla holy shit
shell garnet
Go count its isnt that hard
manic ibex
See? I just throw random numbers like you
barren zephyr
Milfssas
final sundial
Its not birdbath simulator, maybe you bought the wrong game 
drowsy field
shell garnet
Go click offical servers only on filter
shell garnet
and see how many people are playong offical
valid zephyr
I play officials all the time. EU-1 is full tons
cyan flame
To be fair, only eu1 and us1 seems full
shell garnet
and then count how many are playing unofficial
cyan flame
eu2/3 are dead :/
final sundial
Its deathmatch currently becaue there are no updates
cyan flame
No
barren zephyr
i play officials way more
valid zephyr
EU-1
cyan flame
Its deathmatch cause we dont have much survival focused things
shell garnet
PLEASE CALCULATE
cyan flame
With affinity, and possibly other stuff, we'll probably see more survival and less "run around and kill everything"
barren zephyr
i mean what
cyan flame
And then we got the population cap/issue vs ai xD
lilac swallow
"More people play on unofficial" maybe because there are also only 6 official servers while there are much more unofficials servers?
cyan flame
Well, official has died out, but then I doubt thats cause of unofficials and more the update drought
shell garnet
3 of the 6 servers are completely empty
cyan flame
Which might mean that unofficials might offer more of an experience for now.. :p
outer nebula
for one of them is not listed
lilac swallow
Ok, now calling people retard?
outer nebula
you talking to me legendary?
cyan flame
No, to John who called someone that
manic ibex
Then deleted it because of a lack of balls
lilac swallow
@outer nebula no, John just said retards the deleted the comment
cyan flame
Considering it wasnt appropriate to say, he should have deleted it :p
barren zephyr
plebian time 
cyan flame
No baiting Tox, it doesn't make you look better ^^
barren zephyr
youre nuts bro
shell garnet
ok boomer
cyan flame
In all honesty, why are we discussing unofficial vs official server popularity, far as I know, both versions have their pros and cons anyway, and in any case, it's not related to a suggestion so
lament thorn
did you just assume our ages
shell garnet
how old ru
lilac swallow
Recurring to personal attacks uh?
shell garnet
i said boomer
barren zephyr
ok zoomer
lilac swallow
And also said retard or you just forgot?
shell garnet
i said retard to joe
barren zephyr
yikes
lilac swallow
Idc
barren zephyr
mate
outer nebula
okay lets keep it clean people
lilac swallow
👍
cyan flame
Yes please, and focus on the suggestions would be nice too! Since that's what we're here for :p
lament thorn
when they arent
outer nebula
they are necessary just not a mating call
cyan flame
But it's as useful as the other calls, and just as "unneccesary" in an sense
lament thorn
I mean no
cyan flame
Why you're all so opposed to it makes no sense
shell garnet
Hes just a no man
lament thorn
calls are time and money for the devs
outer nebula
because there is not practical us for it other then you want it on a semi realism server thats why
cyan flame
There is though
I've explained the use
And it has nothing to do with the kind of server
shell garnet
Alrgiht
lament thorn
a mating call probs wont even be used by a lot of people and will just be a joke to the majority and so its not needed
outer nebula
i understand variations in calls but why make 2 of the same call
shell garnet
what you call same doc
cyan flame
If they're variations Doc, they're.. not the same?
shell garnet
the 2 call and the mating?
manic ibex
oh no your suggestion is gone
outer nebula
well to be honest there is no point in discussing this point because you think one way and we think another ways. i been playing this game since it was released and found the the 4 calls do just fine as they are
barren zephyr
pepega
lilac swallow
You need call 2 and 3, to show you are friendly or agressive to any dino as you cant chat with dinos that arent the same as yours, call 4 because when you are getting chased is faster just 4 calling than writing "help", call 1 because It has a lot of range
But mating call is unnecesary as you only will mate with your own kind, you arent in a hurry(like for 4 call) and you cant mate at long distance, all these motives making chat enought
cyan flame
Thing is, theres a difference between friendly and neutral
Difference between aggressive and submissive
shell garnet
UHM
cyan flame
Difference between danger and help me
outer nebula
yes
barren zephyr
real shit
outer nebula
but we have group and local
cyan flame
If they had, then calls would be less useful :p
shell garnet
and 2 call doesnt have a good range
barren zephyr
2 call to be friendly is enough then u group
cyan flame
Group thats currently working in a dumb way, and requires either asking on discord, or just randomly invite for that matter
And local is short range
barren zephyr
and talk
cyan flame
I suppose we ought to give up, they're fine with the bother of doing one step at a time, whereas Im not, and I guess you're not either, so.. xD
lilac swallow
If they are far you just need to meet them first
cyan flame
Which is a bother that could be avoided by clearer communication :p
shell garnet
Yea what if they are there to fk you up? 1 call doent mean friendly
barren zephyr
or u thinking u can sit at docks and wait for a female raptor to just zoom by after mating calls? 
shell garnet
doesnt
cyan flame
Wouldn't that be the point of broadcast in general mio, you broadcast and either move to the response, or hope the response comes to you? :p
valid zephyr
1 call is just a general being loud call. doesn't mean anything
barren zephyr
but you roam
valid zephyr
apart from telling every dino near where you are
cyan flame
But why would you roam? xD
barren zephyr
ah yes
shell garnet
1 call is loud and attracts both genders.
cyan flame
Nah, I tend to stay in the same area, I prefer finding a good spot to live in and do just that
lilac swallow
If one Broadcast and someone Broadcast back is almost guarantee that both want to meet
barren zephyr
gettibg spoon fed by ai im guessing?
cyan flame
I hunt if things happen to come by that are suitable for hunting
cyan flame
I can't help that most things favour the docks, twins, or some few other spots that I don't think make good homes most of the time :p
To meet up in general I would assume
shell garnet
ive got killed alot trying to find a pair in official servers
lilac swallow
You know, if someone wanted to fight he would go to you to fight even if you use the mate call
cyan flame
Of course, calls can be used however
That's not really an argument against them? :p
Cause you can do the same with broadcast/any call already xD
digital nest
you don’t need calls to ask people to bang your dino, if they’re that type they’ll just spam broadcast and then talk in local
shell garnet
No but if you dont get a opposite gender reply to your call you could just continue
cyan flame
sigh It's not needed, it's a useful call, as would my other alternatives be, for being clear in intent, nothing more, nothing less
Why do you people get stuck on the "need"
barren zephyr
it simply would be a waste
cyan flame
There are very few things we "need", and probably a fair more that are fun/useful/quality of life, and so on
digital nest
because it seems unnecessary
shell garnet
Yea agree erik
