alright who keeps trying to contact me in this channel? 3 times this has happened...
idk
Cant you just check the @?
check inbox
I contacted you once in order to joint our ideas to hopefully get our creature noticed by the devs
Can I speak with someone about a bug or something in my legacy game play?
Legacy isn’t getting any updates so I don’t think any reports about it would matter
So i wont be able to fix the controls?
@deep jetty I just made the same suggestion just longer #general-feedback message - would appreciate the support, I checkmarked yours 🙂
Alrighty
Thanks ❤️ -- The bipedal running launch is so wrong, it bothers me immensely lol.
yea, i dont even know proper anatomy & it still looks wrong
Doesn’t pterandon already have a push up launch that they’ve shown us a while ago
theres a quadrup launch, and a albatross launch.
Albatross launch was supposed to take less stam iirc.
and quadrup is a quick launch
I’m pretty sure that a albatross run in reality would take more stam, imagine a quadropedel animal trying to get enough speed to fly by running on its weak hind legs
Yes, EXACTLY this.
If they wanted it to take less stam, implement the quad sprint into quad launch I suggested.
Because "momentum".
I hope in the time that they’ve been developing ptera they’ve listened to our criticisms, there’s still hope, we haven’t seen official footage of ptera gameplay in a long time and there’s always updates after launch
Yeah could be old footage from when ptera was available to server admins, also you can’t post videos of forbidden creatures here
Forbidden? You mean in development??
No by forbidden I mean stuff like creatures that we’re not allowed to use eg: hypos and in development creatures
So I’d suggest you delete that
I don't see a rule in the pins or the official discord rules saying I can't post it 
Did you delete it or did krow
Krow did
I mean I DID check the pins and discord rules, I tried.
You're not on RO are ya? You're not in trouble :P
Okay. ;o; -- But yeah that makes sense, and yeah, it's. It's being shared and, well, that's why suggestion happened.
So really is doing what you said huh. 😭
what
FFS what's going on now
So apparently you're not allows to post footage of WIP/restricted creatures for suggestions
What did you post?
No no, it was me. Referencing a video that was released by an unofficial source.
My actual suggestion is still up, because I didn't actually post it in the suggestion. But you can't link / post unofficial videos as reference for feedback on unreleased dinos.
Here's an idea for the running quad launch; what if the forelimbs stayed in place while the body continued moving forward due to inertia? This way the running launch would be a more literal pole vault into the air than the stationary launch.
Like, it stops itself using its front limbs, then uses the momentum from its having galloped first in order to launch
the quad launch of a ptera involves it using the forelimbs to launch itself during a gallop
the gallop builds up speed
Pretty sure realistically they could do it without running, I just think transitioning directly from the gallop to the launch makes more sense than fully stopping
like, again, a real pole vault instead of a catapault
it's also possible without a runup
but yeah, smooth launching transition with no pause
It's possible without a runup, it is designed as a catapult. I was suggesting the runup method because, if you know how elastics (and tendons on animal legs) work, the more pressure you put on them, the faster they can "snap" back and release that pressure. Horse's and Cheetah's back legs from the ankle down are all tendon, and if you look into it, they literally work like springs to launch the animal forward and make them go faster.
So the idea is that the momentum from the sudden stop would go into the tendons, and allow an easier launch into the air.
I'm saying remove step 3 here. Instead, have the ptera use its forelimbs to stop itself, allowing its momentum to vault it into the air.
I mean, it's not impossible, but I was working with the existing video's launch example, which requires all four limbs to get off the ground. Idk if they even considered Ptera being able to gallop in the first place.
I think in that video it uses the hind feet to do the leap because it's stationary already. That jump is just to gain the momentum to vault, if the ptera does something similar at the end of its gallop it should be able to take off from a run like that quickly
Plus, also, I kinda like the characterization of having Pteras do a lil' "crouch and pounce" to yeet off into the air.
I will fight tooth and nail to get rid of that albatross run. I hate that thing
The savior of Paleonerds has spoken...
Mhm
@inner hound
shitty anmial...🤢
cool suggestion 👍
wait... hold up
dont mind my lack of brain power, im at work
cool painting of an suggestion for pela
just wrong channel
oh LOl
im still uncertain if i should put it in as a suggestion,
i would still need to draw a lil comic strip of its special ability
^
so maybe another day
i'd like to see those
once i finish the the special ability thing. for sure
well "hate" may be the weong term, for something to hate you first need to feel love and affection for it, since i didnt in the first place i just heavely unlike pela
alot of people dislike pela. which is fine.
i see why it has faults
but im trying to pull things out that can make it work
@barren zephyr they would probably want to finish each map before starting a new one, like the roadmap with dinos and mechanics
i will keep fighting for pela, doesnt matter when it comes. but once we get a confirmation it wont be ingame. my fight ends
@nova anchor they are adding 5 total new maps, we already know about Isla Spiro, Isla Spero, and Thenyaw Island. Each island will have their own uniqueness. We just have to be patient.
Thenyaw most likely wont be a thing
Dinosauriac left the team.
and the 5 maps statement is so long ago, we dont even know if that still stands, after they took the action of trying to find a new mapper
I don’t think they would scrap everything because Dinosauriac left though
it was his map. in dondis words "dinosauriacs baby"
theres a big chance it wont come back. as upsetting as it is for me, since i adored thenyaw.
I know they plan to add more maps. What I want is diversity in ONE map
You are right, but I think they are still adding 5 total maps
diversity is heavily needed for any map
i dont want one or two biomes on one map tbf
yes
and then you have to switch map for another biome like wh 
right now we have jungle, plains, and swamps, which look nice, but it'd be cool to have more. The whole map just looks identical right now.
mhm
no one mentioned temperate.
even tho that can work.
but theres more to tropical, than just jungles and swamps
you can have it be tropical and still diverse lmao
^
I made a suggestion about it a while ago, lemme find it
I know that, but a lot of people want redwoods and pines, and things
what else is missing, landmarks that help you guide through the map.
rn the only landmark that actually stands out is BP rock
#general-feedback message here was something I suggested a while ago
we have aurora borealis on a tropical island. so what
oh yea stuff like savannahs nice
of course, the savannah would be located farther from the moist and more forested areas of the map
JP Para calls are horrendous imo, also copyright issues
I’m not trying to be boring, believe me I love diversity, but I just want it to look good
I don’t want to shut down your idea, because it’s a good one, but I just don’t want it to look like they just smashed a bunch of biomes together
honestly we need also more foliage assets. some other colors
it all depends on the new mapper rlly. once one is hired
and uhhh
he got a job at the game primal carnage iirc
i wasnt around then. i came when uhh when v3 became a thing
i loved that map
Too bad it never came
Ok tell me whats the problem by showing that i approve my own suggestion?
And no, no desperation, it just shows i approve my own suggetion lol
Soo
Ya
just posting your own suggestions shows that you approve it
why else would you post a suggestion lol
you need another story that's not in the archives?
what
thats for alpharaptor 
was that another fucking stars wars reference?
Does it even make sense for cerato to be able to do that, it just doesn’t seem like its teeth are designed to handle that
you didnt like it?
would it be treason if I didn't?
Isn’t drinking just hydration with an animation
@exotic lava That would cause people to go on killing sprees, just for fun to get high Kill ratings
Its a pvp game. People are going to kill each other regardless. Besides, most private servers have their own set of behavior rules that players must follow.
its also a survival genre, and not battle royale
i think that could be a fun option for private servers to turn on
as for the mosasaur thing, i would suggest a smaller species instead of downsizing mosasaurus itself. but then again it wouldn't make sense either way, since mosasaurs are saltwater creatures
Having a log file doesnt take away from the survival element one bit. Its just a way for players to track their progress.
indeed, but than you'd attract and mix player groups with different expectations for the game on maybe one server
Maybe if it's only something you can see on your own character, but then you could just as well just keep a track on your own I guess
i think it would encourage undesirable behavior but i think it could work on private servers the prefer a death match style
You already have that mixture as we speak. There are certain servers intended for specific play, some for survival, others for sand box. Its up to the server owner to decide what model of play style they want on the server. Allowing the community to track this info isnt going to change that.
It might, since the game sort of says it's important
If there's an official count, then it can be seen as important, despite it not having any meaning, and might affect how people play
i also agree that this is the case, but what i mean is the unwanted mix of players who play for survival and are for example killed over and over by players who play competitive for their stats
How? If i break a rule that a private server has, im going face the concequences that server imposes regardless of if there is a log file or not.
rules will be most likely be gone with evrima, excempt for something like "dont be a dick or anti social" but thats it. ruled server you know from legacy will be no more... thats atleast the goal
also these rules and consequences wont stop the ruthless ones who dont care
That maybe the intention, but thats not whats being seen in practice. Even the state Evirma is in now, servers still impose thier own rules.
its a hard case to decide upon... 🤷♂️
i for my part dont like it
yes, i implied 1.0
I just dont see the issue. Its just a simple log file that can be used to display a statistic. Hardcore pvpers will like it as they can track thier progress, and other players who are more focused on the survival elements can simply ignore it as it wont affect their game play regardless.
if its just a simple log file, how would you access it as a player?
upon death with a "stat tracker" like in shooters? an external programm which can only be accessed "offline"?
I was thinking something along the lines of a seperate website that can access it, maybe through an API or some other means.
than it had to be secured so it doesnt get manipulated from players and so on
If a community wants to develop something like that for thier members, I dont see why thry shouldnt be able to.
like battlefield feed?
Its just one file.
I was thinking more along the lines of a killboard from EvE Online
zkillboard.com is a killboard for the Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) EVE-Online.
This is a killboard for EvE Online which im referring to
It tracks a players ship loss/kill ratio.
Im not sugessting something that complex as to include values, just something the community can use to create a website to track player interactions between groups
🤷♂️ we'll see how well your suggestion is being accepted
Honestly I’d say the opposite for Deino, there’s no need to make it need water a ton. It lives in it and is going to be not good on land anyway so the only people playing terrestrial deino will be memers
A kill board would be nice, then we can see what species kills what and how often
Would probably be a help for balance and at worst just be interesting
Well again, im not suggesting it include any sort of artificial currency values, but if a herd and a pack fight, it would be nice to see who participated, what lived, what died, and where it all happened.
Just for the sake of information.
guy suggesting utahs should be faster than carnos
lmao
utahs are were capable of running around 25 mph
carnos between 50-70
"realistic" my ass
Prehistoric cheetahs
basically
Wait what the fuck was carno literally able to run at freeway speeds
Carno had much larger leg muscles than Utah
Well i think a cheetah can run up to 60
maybe someone mixed up kph and mph
Imagine seeing a carno coming to get you going 70mph
going even for 70kph is kinda cursed
Honestly, sad to hear this. Realism RP servers were my main jam on Legacy, and they could only function with enforceable rule-sets.
I'm far from the only person to feel this way, too.
jtbc, private server owners can freely setup any set of rules they want. the goal is just to make the game be able to run without or with minimum restrictions of rules on the officials
the game shall regulate itself in the majority of events that can happen
someone is doing something that was considered a rb in legacy, well let evrima handle it by preventing an repeating through a ingame mechanic without the intervention of an admin
thats the goal
the way until will be plastered with many fixes, suggestions and changes
Ah, okay. That's... a lot more reassuring. And I agree - on officials, I don't think rules should be necessary. But when I wana get my immersion on, can't do that with certain players interrupting.
And only way to stop that, is to have rules in place and ways to enforce those rules.
just keep in mind that the play style on official server is the one thats intended by the devs. what you do on your server is just up to you
Will there be a "replay" or similar log function like there use to be? For even the ability to enforce private server rules?
tbh, i have no f...ing clue atm 🤷♂️
it may or may not return
but there are some suggestions about it already in the feedback channel
I hope some kinda logging does, otherwise... well, if you don't know who broke the rule... can't do anything about it. 
I'll go dig 'em up and upvote them if I haven't
^ thats why the game shall regulate itself. also not everybody is able to record its game by 3rd party or so, but an ingame solution that is flawed like the one in legacy is not desired
It's better than nothing, though. I don't see any mechanic you could implement that would prevent killing for sport and body-guarding by herbivores, which are two of the biggest rules almost any realism server had in place.
why bodyguard if it gives you a debuff and decourages such behavior? for example
That's the only thing we can really think of, though. 😅
im sure the team finds a compromise that appeals most the ppl
you cant make 100% happy 🤷♂️ 
I dont see how you're going to implement a debuff for bodygaurding. Like is a herbivore going to be penalized if they happen to be standing next to a body/gore pile?
yes.
So if a herd member dies of starvation because they had to go afk but didnt eat, then the whole herd is going to have to relocate their nests, hatchlings and others just because someone starved or get a debuff? Thats not right.
What about the herd members who are off eating food and come back and the herd is gone with only a body there? Not every dino in a herd is also in a group.
dunno, debuff for guarding a corpse is only one proposed idea
we don't even know if there'll be a deterrent at all
Well, IF they are going to implement a bodyguarding debuff, then to maintain balance, they will also implement a water gaurding debuff too. Hows that going to work? Are you going to be penalized for being near water if you're not drinking? Then they will need to change how the hatchlings need to eat and drink every other minute, otherwise just having hatchling means you have to put up with a constant debuff, which isnt going to sit well with players.
Theres just some things that can not be automated, nor should they.
as by now, body dragging is implemented. if stupid herbis doing stupid herbi things like prevent a carni relocating their dead herdmember 🤷♂️
water guarding is no thing in evrima
there's nothing saying the area has to be big either, they can just move 50-100m and be fine
they're much more water sources than in legacy
It just sounds like a bad idea imo. Punishing them for just sitting there. Because not every situation is the same.
well it is a problem
herbivores camp corpses very often to purposefully bait or starve carnivores, it should be addressed in some way
same deal with carnivores camping bushes
though that one is less common
Im not saying it isnt a problem. Im just saying the proposed solution is only going to make the situation worse.
well like melon said, they can just move away and let carnivores take it
and like i said, the radius doesn't need to be massive
But what if carnivores don't want to take it and purposely leave it there to mess with them?
^
then the herbivores just moved 10-20m for no reason
Hmm, true
they don't need that corpse, i don't see what the issue is
I like the idea, that just came to mind
But now they cant go back. What if they have nests and hatchlings? It takes a few trips for smaller herbis to fill a nest, so now they have to destroy that nest, maje a new one, spend all that time filling it with food, all while the hatchlings are starving, only leaving more and more bodies that the herbis now have to rinse and repeat
then that seems like their problem to not die near their nests
another solution would be allowing herbivores to carry corpses
So once a herbi is hatched, they have to abandon their nest?
what?
In order to avoid dying next to or on their nest, then they just have to leave it, otherwise they will have a debuff, is what your suggesting, right?
well no, preferably they'd have parents to protect them
i don't know where you got this idea of hatchlings dying right out of the nest
Because a hatchling has to eat very often in order to not starve. If a herd is going to be penelized with a debuff because a herd member was killed where they are nesting, then they would have to relocate. Unless herds are allowed to move their nests, they would have to destroy them, and then put a new one down. They they have to go get food to refill tjat nest. Some hatchlings may not live long enough to wait for new food and would starve to death, meaning that anew body would be where the new nesting site is, resulting in the herd once again having to destroy any new nests put down and move again to avoid a debuff. This wouldnt be a problem so much with larger herbis who can have a larger stomach for food, but smaller herbis like a dryo would struggle.
fair point, like i said earlier that can be solved by allowing herbivores to move corpses
I understand that the devs dont want Evirma to be Legacy 2.0, but they also need to make sure that changes they make are going to be reasonable
of course
i wouldn't want this debuff to be implemented if herbi corpse dragging doesn't come with it (or another solution is found)
God i could just picture a Steggo dragging a body by its tail with utahs chasing it trying to take bites off the body. 😂
Grazing is fine. It's literally just to stop you from starving, nothing more. Just keep eating grass now and then until you find food.
and how hard is it to find proper food in the first place hmm
Not too hard from my experience
But grass is everywhere so eventually you'll find food. Just keep grazing until then
me and my friends have tried laying herbivore, it was fun at the begingin of evirma, but not its boring and tedious to play this way, it makes legacy herb play look better
grass would be good if it actuall gave you any worth while food points
But in legacy if you couldn't find food, you'd just die. At least in Evrima you have grass to stave off starvation
And it fills up to 20% of your hunger. That's plenty considering grass is literally everywhere
its just delaying the eventual out come
Unless you keep moving and find food
ive tried grazing, it dosent fill anything, it just stagnates at whatever food level your sitting at
ive starved so many times as a herb trying to graze and move to find food, even while sniffing for it
That's because it's just to prevent starving. If you're above 20% food, it won't do anything
I haven't had much trouble finding food before, I guess it's different for everybody <:I
Grazing in the future is going to be used as a last resort due to it not giving you the required nutrients.
I'd keep it like this but that being said, we need more boosh.
the snake is planned
either give more food or make grazing better, those are the options, take em or leave em
do one, i really dont care which but do on or the other
what i can see people do currently is just ignore bushes and sit at below 20% food just to be able to play with others (there isn't enough food on the map to sustain herd)
@sturdy kayak That video is not official... it's some random dude who is good at hacking and impersonating. The only animations we are are certain of are the ones we saw a year ago on The Isle's YouTube channel; not even those are set in stone. Not trying to disagree with you, but we can't make assumptions or suggestions on anything yet.
Thank you for that information, and yes i understand it is still in the works, however if you go to the road map it seems like most of it is complete... I am just restating and adding to some of the prior suggestions that have been made, which include suggestions for the current launch animations and landing animations, I have seen some actual game play from a few months ago, which doesn't seem much different from the recent one, so I am assuming the albatross run and airplane like landing is still on the table, but just a suggestion like many others.
Okay nice, just wanted to make sure you were informed. 🙂
Thank you 🙂
@willow hinge pterosaurs can actually take off immediately from hatching (their wing membranes will have developed by then)
Maybe he shouldn't as hatchling. Every bird can't fly after hatch🤔
But pterosaurs can, because we know this.
They probably didn't rely on a lot of parental care, save for a bit of feeding and guarding in the first few weeks.
But a baby ptera without parents could easily survive via scavenging since it can already fly.
xd
@molten goblet Every Legacy Dino except Pue will come back, theres also models for them already
yesssssssss thanks alot
np :d
When will we be able to pay the updated version? I wanna pounce as a Utah :3
You wont have to pay if you already have legacy, just gotta change versions
?.?
I play the isle on steam
Legacy and Evrima
Oooh
Lemme show a pic
Ok

So. Properties > betas select Evrima. No need to pay or anything, it's free as long as you've bought The Isle.
I'm almost home, imma try this
You have to then install the beta
yeah, press on evrima like in the screenshot, then you have to install it and youre good
No pteranodon shouldn't can't eat grass
It's not a chicken
If anything oviraptors are our chickens
@willow hinge pterosaurs gained the ability to fly very early on in their lives in comparison to birds, possibly even at birth
@scenic lintel
We can expect water will be improved in the next update
That's why you use capitals
ngl that’s pretty xd
Stop.
ok sorry xD
This isnt tourism game
Another person reacting to their own suggestion with a check 
pretty sure that exact person has complained about those issues a few times before
Demon and angel look like BoB skins, I’m not a fan of those skins
I like the original and reeses but yea the other 2 have no place in the isle
reeses and og are good, other 2 feel out of place
Surprised the bone licker suggestion is still up since joke suggests are usually erased lol
Who said it was a joke
Idk it definitely looks and sounds like one
@manic knoll It's a bug
lets just agree that megalania would be badass
no.
Big lizard go brrr
no.
the isle takes place in the modern world, there are modern birds flying around
the dinosaurs were manufactured most probablly
why would they not experiment on lizards, thus giving a reason for megalania to exist in the lore aswell
forgot to mention theres buildings on the island aswell
simply put if your researching dinosaurs who literally look like lizards in your own iteration
mega is soft confirmed
why would you not experiment on a giant lizard?
it fits in good with the lore imo, and would be a fun playable gives something for dilo mains to jerk off to
nothing was mentioned about it having great nightvision as well
so it will actually require SOME skill
How is scientists experimenting on lizards a good reason for mega to be in game
look im not a person crazed for lore, put simply. megalania adds in:
a bleeder
a generalist bleeder
the ability to counter burrowers
possibility to swim to catch up to small things in the water making camping water less viable
soft competition for cerato (only see this if they are in a pair or so)
more to flesh out the swampy biomes and possibly beaches, komodos tend to hunt things that get on beaches
a carnivore who gets representation and isnt a dino
a dope ass lizard
definitely more
If it aint a dinosaur or not from the Mesozoic I’m not a fan
Yes
Also because all the things you listed about it are just features of other cooler creatures, nothing new
what?
i just said what megalania would add, all the possibilities
i listed other creatures as examples to interactions it could have
@thorn linden I think the idea itself is pretty cool however this would be extremly EXTREMLY meta, an animal with good bleed could just bite its prey once and then leave it be, for example, if i choose to play Acrocanthosaurus and bite a Shantungasaurus and then run away it would go to wallow (since otherwise it would bleed out) which would give it sepsis which would then go and get the antibiotic plant (where ever they are) and then if it does not find it, i can just kill it, and if it finds it i can just bite it again
The idea of getting a disease while wallowing is the problem
Ya, this seems extremely meta and luck based
I would be more fond of animals eating the wrong plant (if herbivore) or carnivores eating rotten meat which would give you a sickness you could either; Wait out and get more debuffs or have to find something else to eat which could potenitally heal it
I tried my best to avoid that whith the timer but i get what you mean and it fair
Rotten flesh and eating plants that specific herbivore has a hard time digesting would make more sense
Yeah that is true but i wanted to tie those mechanics togheter but i get your point now i see what you mean
Tho i guess you can just make antibiotic plants be quite common and easy to find(via smell lets say) and also make the timer until sepsis by huge
This is literally land giga shark
candygram??
Ok then
?
its from an snl skit
Dunno what that is, but alright
SNL, saturday night live??
It’s Off topic
Though yeah I know snl
Anyway, disease should be from eating bad food
ok, well there was a skit about a land shark and it said candygram to try and get u to open the door, hence y i said candygram

i like the ideas for pelagornis ive see, very interesting and i really like your art @inner hound it really reminds me of the old dino dossiers from back in the day
ty 
do you have a deviantart or artstation?
Adore that pela infographic
Would be cool if when eating a corpse it got that giant Petra bloodstain on it until it went in water or something
Petrel*
like this
petrels literally dont bother for blood, they put their whole head inside carcasses which is

i love them. theyre gorgeous and so underestimated
pela 3 call pose 
I love it
I will make a haast suggeation one of this days and i will make sure people love it

pela t pose
chai is a feathery confirmed
Weve both gone dino mad. Chai is pela mad and I am cherry mad
My favorite part is they apparently just smell fucking horrible for no reason
add what chai said or im sueing the world
they have an astounding smell, pretty sure they mean sense of smell but I wanna think that it means they smell bad
or maybe smell good
who knows
they are great in smelling. their tube like beaks help with that
but how does a pela smell? does it smell good?
does it smell like fish or does it smell like poptarts?
Down with the poptarts pela
What does the current design for spinosaurus look like for Ervima I have yet to see it and want to compare it to the most recent depiction of spinosaurus

@carmine path its swimming around somewhere in #phase-two-archive
@thorny crag The Isle is not meant to be played on controller... it has options but keyboard is easier. I have a 4k monitor and I don't have any issues. That might be something about your specific monitor.
@upbeat marten I think that is coming with update 3, but if it doesn't I 100% agree with you.
I hope its coming cause it would give the deino more of an advantage in the water then it already does
considering everyone could just put their camera in the water and just see perfectly to check for deinos which I dont think is very realistic not to mention takes the fun away from the deino getting the jump on you
If it has Controller options that are executed very badly I can point that out. It would be a great couch game but as of now only playable while sitting at the pc. Ye we tried playing it on a 4k TV monitor. Maybe that's it. But it's a 1k € monitor. Isle is not optimized so I expect them to look into that cause many ppl have graphics issues on max settings.
Btw every game is optimized for controller. It's not even hard to program
Even counterstrike can be played on controller. We will try programming it with xpadder tomorrow
Half the settings for keyboard aren't there for controller it's so weird. Very half heartedly executed.
That's because literally no one plays The Isle on controller... literally no one. I am not trying to be rude, it is just the reality.
@upbeat marten
Devs said that it is a bug currently as when Update 2 released you couldn't see very well... it was 'murky'.
But in the recently released hotfix, which implemented Human buildings, swamp water visibility was ruined.
To what was said.
It will be either fixed in a hotfix before Update 3, or in its update... as we might be getting the new Unreal engine update into Update 3
Actually i use controller to get cinematic panning
Not true my friend. They don't play it on controller cause it's awfully optimized. I doubt you know every isle player. Not try to be rude but realistic.

Did you use a program to get all settings on the controller? Lightclaw
I am talking about actually playing the game, controller can be good for videos.
And i really need a proper controller optimization.
I don't game with controller, but the ability for controller to be used at maximum potential is needed
Yea it would be so great if its optimized
No, i haven't been able to use Controller on Evrima yet
Ah ok. We try doing it with xpadder tomorrow. I'll post in feedback if it works
Alright
If devs compare other games using controller and use that as inspiration.. Literally not hard to create that. Just some fiddling with button mapping
Saying it's not made to be played with controller is weird. Why would they have the option then?
they have the option for cinematic panning like Lightclaw said, they also have the option because every game does. But the isle isnt meant to be played on controller. The Isle isnt coming to console either
Not talking bout console. Just having it for smooth panning is just... Weird. I believe they are planning to add full support controller but it's work at takes a Lil time to do.
that could be it
If u are personally against it OK but try not to make it look like isle isn't meant to support controller
but idk why you would want to play on controller, makes the isle 10 times harder
It's just a different type if input device
U don't have to aim in isle as dino. If u dislike it well but that's a desicion every player can make on their own
I'd like to sit on the couch and play it without mouse and keyboard
I just need some good controller optimization.
Wanting to create some Evrima films soon, and pain is real with mouse and keys
Works for almost every single pc game ever made so why not isle. Just pointed out how shitty it is in feedback so devs may see it
If you want to play on controller, that's fine. Who am I to tell you, but I dont see it benefiting. Everyone else will be on keyboard, and since keyboard is easier to control, it will make surviving harder
Even turning isn't smooth on controller like whyy
Some don't play this game all that seriously. It's just a game. Comfortable gaming is very nice
I think it really helps people who are more use to console then PC.
Alongside, controllers allow for more smoother gameplay when looking (not graphics wise)
I dont even see why this is an argument
People have different play styles, who cares!
Controller optimization is good for the few that prefer controllers
^
Didn't see it as an argument XD
Just it's silly that Evrima doesn't have controller optimization.
But, excuse, Evrima is still in early development
Just the "isn't meant to work that way" and "why even do it" part
Just pointed out its crappy. I mainly use it on pc but tried to get it work on PC, to TV and Couch with controller and failed.
Guess they gonna fix that one day
Sadly we gotta wait until devs say something about it
Ye let's hope
Maybe it seems like wasted effort to ppl who dislike using controller
But adding half done controller support is pretty sad in my book
I apologize for turning this into an argument, you can play how you please, but the isle is never coming to console as Dondi once said (if i remember correctly) so it just wouldn't be ideal. However, if you like playing that way, then go ahead 🙂
because normally when you play console, its on a couch with a controller
im comparing it
there isnt a difference except the platform
Dunno what to say. I just meant controller. I give no crap about console
Many people play on couch with their pc using a controller
Tbh, that's PoT's job to take over consoles.
The Isle is a lot better in-general, being more optimized for PCs
However, The Isle could be taken to Console... seeing as the newest gen is getting a lot better then before.
But only when the isle is finished will it most probably be taken to console
@tight oxide
I believe you have to put up your particle quality up
How lol
Go to your settings
K
ok so like im playing as a hypsi and when i hold down q it points me tomeat but im a herbi? someone plz help
Herbivores can smell meat so they know to avoid that area since there's likely danger there.
fair enough but i cant smell bushes anywhere
Bushes are hard to find, i suggest going somewhere else and far away
fml ok, why haven tthey added more bushes? i feel like there should be more
This will be worked in diets update, probably. You cant starve as herbi btw
True, however they want it to be hard to find bushes. That's why it's a survival
is there a reason herbis dont starve?
fair point
thanks for the help fellas
oh and also is there like a map online for evrima where i can plug my cords into and it shows me where i am, kinda like the one for legacy
theres an evrima option in the dropdown box
aight thanks
Cool idea for the Utah jump, but Utah is already broken enough
make utah unable to jump like irl
The idea of pterasaurs picking up small live animals sounds horrible
Funny because the devs actually said they won't allow the pick up of live players, so.
No.
Not to mention Pterosaur feet aren't even prehensile
It would be like me trying to pick up a small dog with my feet, it just doesn’t work
That’s why I made that comparison
Yep
A pterosaur trying to grab someone would just not work
If it even somehow managed, it’d probably die
Cant really interpret the "hums" into 4 different calls, would be a cool F call tho...
@abstract zealot buildings arent causing the lag in evrima. its just that the games not optimized as of yet.
oh sorry@vast wolf
its all good, a lot of the lag from legacy was caused by foliage and shaders.
thats not as much of the case in evrima and its just the servers having a hard time tracking players and everything at once for a long time.
okk
also the shadows have some sort of issue in isle, idk what they did with it
plus there is still lag when something loads into your field of view. idk if that's a think they can fix
@indigo verge you're one of his friends and new to this dc? please read the rules. comments for feedback is appreciated it posted in the responsive -discussion channel
@sacred minnow as long as u mean without the roars then yea thats awesome
I honestly don't understand why people keep suggesting they hire this one guy. Did he apply for the job or something?
wut guy
Gunter
oh
What are the devs supposed to do? Kidnap him and force him to work on the game?
well duh
thats the only way to hire someone
otherwise they can quit whenever they want to
They also seem to presume that our models can jiggle like those seemingly more high quality models. I don't think Gunter there is animating with video games in mind.
Like shit, yeah, it would be cool if the game could have us move as fluidly as a dinosaur documentary. Shame that we still need some way to control it.
if they actually did hire gunter, he probably wouldn't be able to do animations like these regardless. Animating for a game is vastly different from animating for a show.
True
maybe they can ask for the rex sounds
@sturdy kayak could you not have just ran away from the area or got ready to set up an ambush on them
@dire ridge read #moderation
Ok my bad
Since we're near hitting the standards set by Dinosaur Simulator(Roblox), it seems the community has devolved to their strats.
What is Beipi ?
Oh 👌
It followed me to where I was safelogging at, and on top of DCing multiple times
@eternal owl
I could imagine ourano being added, it's predator being either Carchar or Spino
However it doesn't really seem to have anything special about it
Every playable in the isle evrima, as you know, has a certain special ability that makes it different from everything else.
Unless it could do something that would make it different and people would want to play it... it would need something that makes it special
Mud tier semi aquatic herbivore
I don't know Ourano wasn't the only suggestion
I also said Stupendymys
True
@supple egret
I'll write a large suggestion for that soon! We need it
Agreed, sounds good!
Yeah!
yeah i agree, loud sniffing seems like a flat disadvantage to carnivores in pretty much every situation
Indeed sniffing is a bit too loud, today I pretty much left the game and afked for some time in a bush and realised that someone was around me because I could hear them sniff from yards away. The sound should probably not be quite as loud as it is now.
Troodon can just be renamed to a species it was merged into, simple as that
doesn't need a model change or anything just a name change
@jagged heath Or rename it to Latenivenatrix or Stenonychosaurus, but people wouldn't like that.
rename it velociraptor
Rename it Troodondi
@jagged heath its a video game that isn't meant to be realistic there's things like hypos coming to the game and different strains i don't think it would really matter
Thats true, but excluding the cannibals and tribals and such, there's no other animal in the game that's just fake. Strains are exaggerated versions of dinos, but they aren't just fake dinos. Troodon literally isn't a real thing. Its like adding a dragon into the isle with no lore explanation.
However they could rename troodon to one of the two animals it was grouped in with and not change the model and it'd be fine
Apollo creates the dinos who often dont even look like their irl counterparts it's not that far fetched that they'd still decide to use the name Troodon for their little abomination they created
Especially considering it's not either of the animals suggested as a rename
That's fair enough, but still I'd kind of like to see at least a nod to it being misnamed in the lore. Maybe not anything big, but just a little, "we call it "troodon" but it's actually insert name here" in a mercs journal or something
Honestly naming it troodon is better than renaming it to an actual animal it is very inaccurate to, like what they're doing with anky and spino
lmao just say you used the dna of something in the family but lost the labels so just bullshitted it and called it troodon
i don't think that's what trike meant
That example's a bit too generous.
Na im saying the anky and spino we have dont deserve to be called anky and spino, just like troodon doesn't deserve the name of any irl dino as it isn't really accurate to one, so it is better off with the fictional name
I wish Anky would be more like Saurians anky
Not even for realism sake but just because Saurians anky is beautiful
Idc if they add fictional aspects to anky, but it should still be the walking tank/fortress it is supposed to be
Oh I agree, but I like saurians anky and I think something like that would be very, very nice looking
Yeah their anky is pretty hot
Ok, so, I've just looked at the JWE Troodon and they're very similar excluding colors. I wanna know: Is that a valid comparison? The JWE Troodon's just kinda a generic.
I don’t know what you’re talking about, that’s clearly a cheetah 
I feel it'd be more accurate to place a cat tail and head on a bear.
No it makes more sense to put spots on a lion because it’s just a short faced baryonx with a sail
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Shit I'm dumb
Wait no
maybe
You've confused me
its like calling this a rex
Why his arms do that 👁👁️
Will there likely be any fully aquatic or semi aquatic creatures besides Deinosuchus added to the game?
we have more semi aquatics coming, including minmi and beipiao
small herbivore and omnivore
We don’t have any of those confirmed yet
none confirmed but there was like mosasaurus holding tank concept art. I can see it happening later down the line
@barren zephyr
LOD is being fixed in Update 3.
While during dondis xmas stream when playing as a ptera, it didn't look back.
It was pretty good, alongside the photo by Punch in the roadmap update
oh derp I didn't see the roadmap update picture, he updates the message
thank u
No worries!
I'm here to clarify the confusion
It would be cool to see some marine creatures or other freshwater based creatures
Torvosaurus be like:
jajaja what a freak of an animal
megalosaurids btfo'd
Jokes a side i genuinely like the megalosaurids
same they're super ripped
did you just fuse a rex with utah's jaws and spino's limbs?
allos arms lol
okay, but looks cool 
don't really see the purpose of adding competition for mono, he already has utah and dilo to contend with
eotyrannus would just be clutter
As if mono isn't already clutter 
exactly, he's basically just utah or dilo but without the unique abilities lol
utah without pounce and dilo without venom combine to create... monolophosaurus
The nose dinosaur
At least Mono's last-minute-idea special feature is useful unlike magy's i guess
What is it?
It makes sense when you nose makes up 50% of your face
@night mountain YES great idea!
Alternate species skins as high level cosmetic perk unlocks or something. Tarbo for rex, carchar for giga, cory for para, etc.
That would be amazing but I don't know how feasible the idea is(and again - Tarbo is way too small to be a Rex skin). I think it might be a bit too taxing on the devs to create such elaborate rewards.
as long as nothing about the creatures hitbox or stats change Im all for it 
iirc skins were thought of as a dlc, but i dont know how accurate it is now 🤷♂️
Eh tarbo could be an albert skin, its like what 3-5 feet longer?
I see nothing wrong here
@barren zephyr sitting still while growing makes you grow slower
What do you mean?
With wrong slower?
Yhea but you don't become fat
meant grow*
I want to see fat dinos
Yeah nothing hixbox or stat related. Just a skin in the same way picking your colour or pattern is. Just some small model tweaks to make it look more like the new version.
Anything off can be explained as genetic modification stuff.
also pue skin for brachi. 
@barren zephyr that's confirmed last i checked. not the fat dino part but like if while you grow you walk alot your stamina is normal but if you don't your stamina is smaller.
Yeah, it was confirmed a while back but I dont know when they'll implement it
Hey, just tried Evrima. That sound i make when im going to sleep, is that someone everyone hear or just me ? I sound like a my dad when his sleeping and i can hear him 2 miles away
Yeah everyone hears it, its so people cant log out from being hunted anymore
@jagged heath the species of Troodon we have, Troodon inequalis, is technically now classified as Stenonychosaurus inequalis, but it's called Troodon in The Isle cos it sounds more menacing than Stenonychosaurus.
and its a common name as opposed to that mess
I mean troodon should still be troodon because troodon was named in the 1800s while stenonychosaurus was named in the 1900
TI troodon got the velociraptor treatment
I don’t want that
it's not getting a spit?
It's not getting spit but it is getting venom
I like venom but not spit
So, what's the point of alt bite for utah ?
I mean they could boost alt bite damage a little so it could have use
Velo that pesky raptor that steals human food lol
Agree, imo the regular bite should deal more bleed (because utah use his claws) and alt bite more dmg
Yes pls
velo, the raptor the size of a dog that could rip a human's throat out give half a chance
Watch utah just get a galli kick...
Fear the chicken
yes XD
i mean if its staying the size its always been in the game
That doesn’t sound right
Velo will get pounce sooo...
Humans are just gonna fear velos out of the whole roster
Unless they become surprisingly easy to kill
I mean
I feel like devs would make velo viable
Not as viable as bob velo
That velo was too op
Bob velo broken
Ikrrr
It can take down dinos twice it’s size
I saw one kill a rex...
I saw one kill a apato
That why this velo better not be broken like bobs
well if troodon is going to be viable, and it isnt that much bigger then velo
Velo vs troodon hmmmm
But troodon has venom
velo pretty useless rn, nothing too unique about it
Velo got bleed i guess
I think troodon may have better night vision to
And troodon packs
But they are obviously pack hunters
Dilo 1 call at night
im still more scared of anything in this size range, because their size automatically makes buildings unsafe
Lol
Troodon is planned as this asshole venomous pack hunter, and that's a dumb idea that rips off a rather good JP game
Dilo probably gonna be annoying to
Dilo and utah are equal footing
unless biglo happens
Utah can jump is faster sooo...
Utah’s have a advantage at day but when it’s night dilos rule
a pretty good advantage
But couldnt utah run you down if it saw u
only if it sees where you go
I just remembered
But the dilo always know where you are
im hoping we get better nightvision then this black and white nonsense
Yup
Isnt night vision in real life way better for animals lol
Humans gonna be lucky
Night vision was so boring in legacy
Accurate
I want magyosaurus
yes, it acts more like a brightness filter, so for some animals that dont have good night vision, humans or a trike for example, it will just be dark, but for something that has good night vision like a cat or a raptor, they can see at night as if it were still day
So you mean
Dilo gonna see night like day
But utah
Can see like sun going dark
?
Give the army guys good night vision but the tribals not so good
Would be cool if tribals could make like tiny villages
Maybe
And setup defenses
But if humans got growth system it gonna be a pain
I don’t think they will get growth system
Because you gonna get carnivores eating babies
ok best example i can give where thats how night vision was implemented like a brightness filter is archoteck, nightvision was like turing up your gamma and each dino had a set degree it got to
And the carnivores would feel bad
But human child
True
Lets be honest
It’s hard to make babies look cute in games
I want humans to have growth just so i can eat baby
Why
Why not
Sounds messed up tho XD
Bad thing with humans having a growth system is that it would be very boring
Go for it
Human baby is annoying, eat baby
If they did get growth it better be pretty fast
Humans prob take the longeat to reach full grown in real life
I think trex got full grown or mature at 18
99.999999999% sure humans wont have growth that'd be dumb, even if it would be fun to eat baby
Maybe tribals will have children if anything
Watch humans grow in 30 min
I feel like humans are gonna be easy to kill tho
a tier system would make more sense
How about
Baby is easy to kill
Humans nest or somethin could spawn babies?
Human nest
Human nest
Human nest for make baby
What if tribals could pick a town made by other tribals to spawn in
Humans could set up beach spawns for buddies to spawn in on boats, or airdrop bases
Also humans should be able to forage
Watch 90% of dino playerbase camp human spawns
Airdrop bases would be risk because dino players could see delicious human falling from sky for some distance
Yes
And what if tribals have to craft weapons
Poor man ark
Punching trees
I want tribals to be able to steal guns and use them as blunt melee weapons that can sometimes fire at random
Punching rocks
I was rather thinking of sharpening a stick
Oooo
Let tribals and small handsy dinos break into cars and drive them with 0 control destroying everything in their path and then themselves
Spears would be kinda op against apexes
Trex were slower than humans if im not wrong
Alt turn
doubt it will be faster in game
Humans throws spear
Heck throw
what if utah had the worthless rat niche- oh wait
what if we deleted utah 
Isnt utah like the isles mascot in a way
in a bad way
roleplayes, docktahs, portahs, annoying assriders claiming they are good at the game, annoying calls, ugly model
everyone has their own opinion and I respect that, but that's wrong
Whats your fav model?
cera, giga, pachy, para, taco, dilo and more
second one
2016 utah model xD 
Personally I wouldn't hate Utahraptor if it wasn't some unoriginal copypasta
the second model is just the most tolerable
B)
@north onyx I'm not sure if that's meant to be comments on #general-feedback ? Or just your own feedback?
just my own feedback cuz i didnt add it all in as one big paragraph... 
Ah okay
I'd suggest just, condensing it all, so people can upvote the whole thing
but thats just me
i probably should. gimme a sec ill fix it
@north onyx Austro was in the game at the very start

tbh i think itd be a good idea. giving more variety than just...getting a raptor or carno. cuz right now thats the only meat eater options we got other than deino coming in. which all 3 are HUGE compared to a micro. itd be a good starter if u wanna start small. specially if its a players first time ever playing as a meat eater.
fish
Fish boring
seeing all the peoples votes make me happy. im glad people agree. itd be cute to see it in game. the picture i used is just a model design i found online i dont take claim to that tho i wish i could model that good 
@sudden hinge What would torvo bring to the roster?
it seems like just another big dino boi
albeit a chad one
torvo could be made into an allo skin
I mean torvo just feels like a bigger allo
Even allo is more unique with a possibility for a grapple or pounce-ish thing
I would like to see Torvo use its arms just as much as its jaws.
a slow legacy carno is my best comparison
just a basic carnivore, but using it's arms sounds like a good idea
but then how would it use it's arms
in a way that makes it unique and not another grappler
Torvo could take a more generalist role that the allo used to have in legacy
Torvo wouldn’t need a grapple but giving it as a secondary attack like a heavy claw smack could definitely do damage to smaller prey items and competitors
Cera is a opportunitistic hunter scavenger with generalist qualities but isn’t necessarily a full generalist
Torvo wouldn’t have a need to scavenge as much and wouldn’t have the digestive system of cera
well you've got an idea there
that sounds actually nice for a carni
as someone who absolutely in love with the old super generalist allo, seeing it get an evrima port sounds wonderful
This Torvo 😳😳
That’s what I’m saying I’m not a huge allo fan but I love torvo and giving allos old niche to torvo I think makes more sense
Yup that’s torvo 
Eyyyy that’s what I’m talking about lol
We can always ask the people in #paleotalk about Torvo and understand its capabilities. It might not have to even be fictionalized to be good.
or different
True that works too
Oh my god terrifying
@inner hound I saw your pela thing and I noticed a problem, technically a baby pelagornis would be stupidly slow, it wouldn't be able to run from predators, making it only viable as a sub/adult
@barren zephyr i really like this idea, its a great way to provide and incentive to keep weaker elders around
why would you @ the admins for a tribal suggestion 

pretty sure they are younger just dont worry about it too hard
Exactly! A reason to keep em with you
yeah i really like it, its a good way enforce that behavior without being over complicated
@jagged heath chicks of birds are rather fast though. especially birds that are able to float or swim.
ie. Duck chicks
I dont see a problem with hatch-juvi pelagornis, if the same goes for them such as rl duck chicks
due to petrels, albatrosses and such being able to even run on water when starting their flight. i dont see a problem them being too slow as younglings
https://youtu.be/2in9A9lQQY4 young grebe example
Thats the problem tho, this is a pelagornis we're talking about, not a duckling, and as you showed in the picture, pelagornis would've been the size of a pteranadon, plus in the picture, the baby is small and, dare I say f a t... meaning it would have to use water as an escape route. but then another problem arises: it wouldn't be able to dive underwater because it wouldn't be able to dive far in the first place, but it wouldn't have the lung capacity to stay underwater. and with deinosuchus coming out, babies would eat baby pelagornis as a small snack.
the duckling was an example.
as i said before many baby bird chicks are fast by nature.
nor did i mention that it needs to dive
but float
many animals in this game get fictionalized to some extent, so can pelagornis.
i mean babies rn are incredibly fast
Well i mean... its somethin to think about ;-;
it is. but i dont see the problem with it being unviable and slow
rl baby chicks of any bird species are rather fast and robust than we might think
i like the idea of making the swamps more 'lively' tho. via all the small things being added as AI
since swamps are normally super noisey/bustling with life
yes! specially the poison dart frog option for troodons. itd be perfect
maybe even some dragonflys buzzin around would be pog
specially also. think of it this way. u make the mistake of eating it and ur not a troodon u poison urself
would be cool
itd make the troodons poison/venom bite more of a reason. like the frogs are part of its staple diet. and thats why its so dangerous
instead of just "oh this dinos got this" without a reason.
if troodons seek out the frogs too, cuz lets say theyre decently sized/fill up the troodons feed bar really well, itd have them all swarming the swamps for them and deino would have a hay day snapping them up
and itd make the swamps a suitably dangerous place for babies to be born in.
just a idea. but to me i think the swamps should be a dangerous place. cuz of multiple reasons. lol
the snapping turtle idea would be cool too. cuz itd give something for baby deino's to hide from.
baby deinos already have adult deinos and other babies to worry about
o true
@tight oxide theres.......... um a problem with that suggestion. its the fact that utah dwarfs ptera. im not sure you aware but ptera is actually very small and realistically might be able to pick up a velo. troodon is even i lttle bit big. ptera is about the size of dryo.
Did not relize lol
You mean, the one I was talking about ? Nah, it's this one
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I love that thing to death but it isn't really concept art. None the less I support it.
Add it to your suggestion, It'd probably sway future "x"s.
or make an extension with the image to clarify.
Yeah, you're right. I'm going to do it right now
since the first option isn't actually possible.
IT IS
Okay actually maybe aquatic Spino can be physically changing. I love this thing
that is so adorable and derpy I want to hug that thing
sailboat fisher boy
Hi, it's just a question. See, I have a computer mac and I love dinosaurs and I would like to play this game. Could you tell me if there is a version of the game for mac or how to download it?
@glass cliff you have to download it on steam there is a MAC version for this, once you download it and make an account you can buy the game for $20.00USD
o ok thanks
BTW Steam is a game launcher and is very reputable so don't be skeptical
Let me access the doc ya foc
How did that torvosaurus suggestion get so many upvotes when it has 0 ideas for its niche/mechanics/literally anything
We'll never know
It has all the requirements for a good suggestion
-Torvosaurus
-Prehistoric Kingdom
teehee big dino :O
@mellow steppe what does that reaction spelling mean?
im confused as to what u meant
oh oops
It's locked.
FIxed it
In my mind strains would not be effected at all by my idea, or you'd become 'em by going the neutral path.
If you're saying those should be strains, no.
i enjoy frog spino i dont know why people dont like the idea, jp3 based spino is pog but short legged one is even more pog,
also tech i dont think magy would entirely fit that since yea its faster its still a chunky sauropod i doubt it be able to become a fst mountain goat
jp spino is gross, it is just wasteful to take a unique aquatic apex theropod and turn it into rex with long face
it doesnt need to fit the same niche to fight rex, it can prob give em hell but long leg man no, short leg aqua man better, can litterally go in water to escape apexes and take its niche it was meant for
kinda like how it was already with carch
they did fight but they both had their niches
and not be the same one
Most large carnivores tend to avoid eachother, I'm pretty sure
But since this is The Isle, people tend to have fights for no good reason
Goat magy is kinda weird, but at least it's not another poison magy suggestion. So I support it.
wait the ones where biting one would cuase side effects becuase i kinda agree with em
if it doesnt get it of course but we have to wait for that one
IRL Spino is unique and would function perfectly fine in The Isle.
Also Homalo goat
yes
