the lesser of two evils
shit
id just kos them and leave the body
I mean the devs could as well be arseholes and do it that apex predators cannot be toggled on or off
iirc all dinos can be toggled off and on so ye
As the saying goes, Survive The Isle
Eventually anyway
imagine a server with utahs disabled, bliss
but magy's gotta be an outlet for people to vent on like a punching bag
prefer a server with carnos disabled over utahs. Carnos are fucking everywhere and I don't wanna see them anymore
but I am someone who sorta goes along with whatever the devs decide
Just disable every dino except Dryo
They are the ones in charge, not us.
the carno spam broadcasting really is horrendous
the ultimate experience
@oak tapir @wicked furnace The three best options imo for an ocean guard. This is an accurate size chart I made (art by Harry the Fox) comparing them to a T-Rex and Utah. Top is Mosasaurus, mid left is Temnodontosaurus, mid right is Kronosaurus.
...
no human for scale
secondly those are fucking jp dinosaurs
Human is the raptors height. The Isle Rex and Utah are literally the same as the ones from JP
Isle rex isn’t really jp except for the roars
and the fact that its a bit underweight like jp but that's just because it's outdated
They look very similar
Not really
Yes
I only used the JP rex because I couldn't find a full body side view of the Isle Rex. If you want to make a better chart go for it.
Did someone unironically suggest cum
okay so thats the kind of person we dont want access to shit
I am at my limit
It would be as a joke
man ACTUALLY asked for dinosaur cum

I'm sure it's ironic unless they are batshit
Wait is breeding actually getting added?
Nesting is a thing but it’s probably just like a button thing and then the female has to incubate
imagine being an animator forced to animate two dinos fucking. No animator should be forced to do that
see the devs talk about adding shit and then that type of person crawls from the shadows to ask for a step further smh
The guy said it like sex is going to be a thing wtf haha
Don’t forget piss and body odor
yikers
Because those were confirmed too
wtf is the purpose of piss
Why tho
Nothing
body odor for AFKers? sure whatever, but wtf is piss for
they just want to add it to add it?
Nothing
Idk
They have like no reasoning
Other than dondi wanted shit for tracking
That's dumb
Or as afk deterrent
imagine the utah packs pissing everywhere to mawk theiw tewwitowy UWU no thanks ugh please god no
Brachiosaurus shit will be bigger than half the roster
ok if brachi can literally kill small dinos with shit and puke i'll forgive it... partially
I like the isle because it’s a survival game where I’m existent as a genetically modified dinosaur who fights others, as well as multiple humans and monsters, not to watch my fucking ornithopod take a leak
there better not be animations or sounds
I don't think dinosaurs even marked their territory with piss lol
Like dondi even mentioned shit like rubbing against trees for emotes or for dinos to benefit from
WHY NOT HAVE THAT INSTEAD
I wonder if furries will join just to be able to piss as a dinosaur
Don’t even get me started
is it just so AFKers start stinking up a storm because that's literally the only function i can see, and this brings back memories of the 'mild diarrhea' suggestion
I am up at 2 am on my birthday looking at a message that wants dino cum and devs who want shit in game
I am done
a gift
true
the way he said that
It’s funny now
the way he specified "mild"
a mild diarrhea
as in there would be other variants
Fucking pleasant and tame diarrhea
What the actual fuck..
honestly they should just make afkers fall asleep and snore loud af
no body odor or whatever needed
@edgy harbor you’re online, can you..
I might afk just to see sleep anims if that were the case tbh
I don't see the problem with going afk lol
afk should just halt growth or be inconvenient to do
because afk growers are a waste of a server slot
Some people don't have time to play for long
Ok so you’re booting the game up when you know you have a short time, and you choose to make it less active and engaging
if you dont have the time why are you getting on just to AFK in the first place?
So they can play as an Adult which is a lot funnier to list than being a Juvi.
No I mean they sit afk while they are busy
well when sandbox servers come back they can just go there or freegrow servers
afk should be discouraged on normal survival servers
if its getting up to let your dog out or taking a phone call its one thing but a lot of people tab out to watch youtube or play another game while they plop their ass in a bush in some untrafficked area
but now smth like "ok I'll afk grow now since I'm busy"
Yeah ngl I'm gonna be playing on sandbox and freegrow servers when they come out because when I get a job soon I'm probably not going to have time to grow a croc for six hours
you don't have to grow it in 1 day tho
I mean I do, things I play grow fast anyway and the game isn’t exactly the most engaging as a juvi Dryo or Ptera
I don’t like doing it
No but like if I'm playing an hour a day it will take a week to get to Adult and that's if I don't die in that time
same im too impatient to grow some big slow apex just to get lynch mobbed by 20 utahs anyway
Hate it when that happens
well that's why I don't like playing apexes and choose small or mid tiers
Or a mix pack of Utah's and Stegos ruins your fun
grow fast, run fast, die fast is much funner gameplay to me than seeing a utah megapack and knowing that i'm about to die even if i kill 12 of them
tbh I would be satisfied if I killed that many utah players 
Ngl killing a utah megapack as carno is really fun
yeah it feels great to rid the server of an uwutah but then they grow back so fast lol
And that my friend
especially if they reunite with their megapack
dryo the juvie terminator is pretty good yeah
Do you wish you could halt the growth of megapacks singlehandedly?
Well have I got news for you!
Try Dryosaurus, the cure for all those pesky juvis
i hope my dear gallimimus is as good at killing babies in front of their parents as legacy's galli was too
cant believe that suggestion is still there lol
I love you juvi be gone
pesky
You watch him
funni blue carno man
yes
Carnos smelly
also speaking of smelly carno megapacks, doesnt the megapack scent cloud kinda make the body odor and megaherd dung trails kinda useless?
also i feel like taking a shit randomly while stalking something would be kinda lame
we already have the cloud, we already have foot tracks, we can have clawing and gashing for marks
if it just kinda spawns alongside normal tracks sometimes as ground texture i suppose that wouldnt be an issue
because stalking something or trying to sneak away from something and suddenly becoming a big ol scent cloud would feel so cheap
some people want involuntary sneezing and stuff too like no thanks
but then what’s the point
You’re getting the exact same info you’d get from following footsteps, just with a big ol shit on the side
you can already tell species and age by tracks once you learn them and that is enough information
I do hope there is a way to better distinguish the large theropod tracks tho
if somebody wants to find a mate then people looking for one could easily flip a switch in their character menu to make their tracks a different scent within species too
yeah some of the big theropod tracks could be tricky
maybe theyll have noticable gait differences but idk
Being able to give off a certain pheromone in footprints or by leaving markings on trees or rocks would be cool
To find a mate at least anyway
yeah and to know who actually is interested in nesting
instead of finding somebody and theyre like "lol no"
ok so what do you have to say this time Mir ?
for some carnis i the family thing for diets could work, but for some like carnotaurus who generalizes small prey it's preferred diet should just be in a weight bracket
anything i should change ?
hmm ok ok
Honestly specialist vs generalist carnis might impact this a lot
ok let me change that up real quick
like with allosaurus the preference of any stegosaur or any sauropod (minus magy apparently) can work out
Also like imagine pachy being included in compy’s diet because it’s a pachycephalosaur 
or a taco being in rex's diet because it's a ceratopsian lol
compy should be in pachys diet since omni pachy is real 
omni pachy, juvie destroyer
omni pachy is so cursed and I refuse to believe, even if they find bones in pachys stomach
could be but maybe only for juvs since it wouldnt really sustain a full grown rex
I remember something about diets not changing with growth
Or something along those lines
personally i think rex throughout its life cycle should only gain perks from hunting things in its size range
since it is a brawler after all
But I would vastly prefer rex stages hunting different things
nah nah what i mean yeah sure it can still eat taco's but it wouldnt really grant much food since its so small
@sudden hinge the Torvo you presented is undersized tbh.
Torvo is in the 5 tons range now.
I'd like more intermediate between apexes and mid tiers tbh and Torvo with Acro could fill this part.
Unlike herbivores having Para, Theriz, Pachyrhino and even Plateosaurus.
Here we only have Acro.
Btw, everyone, don't trust Filipe on what will be added. It's similar as Kissen saying that Magy will out run Allo or previously Deinosuchus size when at a moment he didn't know.
Carcha must be a Giga skin tbh and if it is done accurate I'd play more Giga.
Ambush bleeder would be even better than endurance bleeder 
Give the endurance to Tyrannosaurus.
hopefully if it is, they give carcha a dewlap since they took away giga's and made him look boring and generic with its boring smooth crest and nothing on its neck
I mean.
let me check for some other paleoart
and the most recent skeletal
you can give it some bigger crests
but it wasn't as important as Giganotosaurus.
The skull shape is pretty different.
but gameplay wise I do not see it that much of unique. Like sure, it could work differently than Acro or Giga, same as Tarbo and Rex, but idk.
Carcha being a big boy now.
Also I think that shit and piss must be troll
but
who knows
they already did puke that's mostly annoying and shouldn't have been added without diet, same goes for locked health without ways to heal faster
puke is only a mammal thing, same goes for territory with piss and poop. Only mammals do that.
So :
-it is disgusting
-it is unnecessary
-it is dumb
i mean technically puke isnt exclusive to mammals, since snakes and birds sometimes regurgitate, but it is annoying af in game rn
eat 1% too much and you get an annoying debuff
This isn't puke anymore. Puke is the mammal thing that get you sick. Meanwhile reptiles can eat as much as they want and just get the thing out if they need to without any sorts of diseases.
true they only really do it if they need to gtfo of an area fast and drop the extra weight
Crocodilians maintain territories by fighting or by vocalising
Yes.
they do have musk glands, as did psittacosaurus (and thus other ornithischians, possibly)
It really depends on what exactly they want a waste mechanic for but I agree for dinosaurs they probably used scent differently than mammals. As it is, they can probably accomplish a lot of territory and scenting mechanics just with scent glands or rubbing on objects.
Gigantoraptor might be a good mid tier omni
It'd basically be galli on steroids as far as gameplay goes
Dude wrote a whole essay about shit and then upvoted his own suggestion multiple times 
What do you guys think about what I wrote? :´D
I guess they made water move when deino moves for "balancing" I guess?
You are able to avoid a lunge you know
late to the puke discussion but crocodilians regurgitate as well-- not particularly due to sickness but in order to yak up undigestible materials theyve eaten
So like what birds do too with the pellets
I hope they rework the vomiting thing honestly
Only to start it off. The first few votes are the slowest to come. I remove the votes after a handful of people have voted. Like putting your own money in a tip jar at a cafe.
In those cases people typically drop a check and an x under their suggestion
Not a whole string of self upvotes lol
i feel like the overeating system we have now is fine, actually-- ive never had a problem with the buffer between 100% and vomiting, and it prevents needless waste of resources
It's something I always do. And I have some of the most upvoted suggestions to be posted here.
It seems a bit silly that eating a tiny bit too much would make you hurl though, i can understand it being used so people dont stuff themselves to grief other people out of food though
There's a 15% buffer before you vomit
It's not as small as you'd think
It's only an issue for people who don't realise they can cancel the eating animation, and instead wait to finish eating naturally, and then overeat as a result
Yeah, they did add a bit of a buffer, before then it was stupidly easy to overeat, but now you have some room for an extra bite, unless you start eating again after you stopped
It must have changed since its beginning then
It has yes
It has
Well thats good at least
@cyan flame what are your thoughts on my shitty essay?
Was dumb eating 1% too much and not being able to get to 100% exactly because im dumb and impulsive lol
I am way too tired to deal with your puns ^^ But I like the ideas in general, and some of it sounded close to my own ideas for those mechanics. The main thing I disagree with is the message thing. Different colors for some basic concepts would be fine, but actual text throws off immersion a bit too much for me. Not to mention people will troll with that, and most likely put questionable messages as well if they can get away with it.
I know asking to type a message is a bit much of an ask, but I love the idea of leaving messages for people to find
Colours is a more realistic alternative, but I can dream 
Yeah, but what with the things we could find in global, I don't know on that one :p
People's names would be next to messages, so offensive content could be reported to Admins
There would be a lot of "Hitler did nothing wrong" and the like tho. But on Moderated servers those people would get swift bans
if "mating animations" were handled in any way, i could see some sort of courting emote where both sexes sorta bob or swing their heads or something-- just as a visual acknowledgement of the invite
People can say offensive stuff in local chat too, and I don't think the solution should be removing the ability to communicate via typed messages
I wouldn't hate that.
and as an addition to the vomit discussion, an appreciated addition would be a stomach-gurgling audio cue when one has eaten into that 15% buffer, to maximize nutrition and still stop before the debuff kicks in
True enough, and yes, with moderation it would fix issues. But I don't know, it's a little too strange for immersion, but then I prefer to just use calls and body-language over chat in general so maybe that's on me.
@tame jetty How is the game supposed to be good for everyone regardless of age ?
Isn't it stated as Pegi 18 on steam ?
I meant as instead of realistic mating animation.. cuddling is better ig because i seen people and even the devs are not fan of realistic mating.. so
Do we need mating animations at all ?
Yeh i really think so.. just standing beside eachother and then bomb mating.. is lame... the game already so realistic and even adding pooping and peeing so why not this :D
just have male make nest, female make egg
i dont wanna watch two dinos fucking and i really dont want ERP in my dinosaur game
Actually dinosaurs peeing is nowhere near realistic
No just go to the other and pretend rubbing neck or something boom you have your "rp mating"
Yes this is what i MEAN. Its not fucking if they just cuddling or doing friendly short close gesture beside eachother for like few seconds....
I think the "good for everyone" is a bad argument against mating animations tho
Wdym.. how can some dinos just rubbing their necks for legit few seconds or side to side be bad for ANYone??
lol
No, no more than we need animations for this other subject.
Ok then Pounce the raptor, you will have animation for raptor... a little bit violent but still work no? I'm jk
You probably misread. The Isle is not trying to be fit for every age. The problem with mating animations isn't that it's not good for children, it's that there's a lot of people with weird fetishes out there.
Hell yes
So... still some dinos rubbing their necks few secs still isnt anything bad.. it more so just adds to realism .. fetish or not that a private thing for the individual lol
@steep warren Wheelchairs would be useless on The Isle
Just grab a crutch and you're good to go, way better than a wheelchair
Wheelchairs are for when both your legs are unusable, and they only work on even terrain
I don't think you'll last long if you're that wounded.. just lie down and hope to die quickly :p
and why tf we got wheelchairs now LMAO XD
Idk
HAHA xD
best shit i seen today
imma mark that as a YES just bc its the best i seen xD
But anyway for my point of view, if you wanna pretend hugging the animations that we have rn can totally work with little imagination so...
you mean nesting wise ye?
I mean for rp purpose only
I dont see any negative side of the idea i put forward on mating animation so.. bc its not in any way grafic that way lol
@tame jettyI guess you could add one of those shared emotes as some form of nuzzling, could even add a touch of scent to you and your "partner", let anyone that sniffs see that you share a scent and are "bonded". But it would not relate to nesting, more so just a social thing, just like potential dominance fighting and other stuff we might get.
Yeah i deff wouldnt mind seeing a field of stegos, on the nesting plains.. just cuddling breef :D
If you wanna talk dino cuddles it would be strange for me because neither birds or reptiles in the wild cuddles, especially to make a nest.
Yeah bc they... fuck to make kids... but since we cant have that... i just want smth that replace it in a calm manner :)
Bc it will add to the game... give it even more emercive feeling... like the damn abient sounds, ais that make the map not feel smaller(thats the plan atleast for the ais lol)
ect
Then what is the point of ambient sound example??
we dont need the sound of birds over us, or frog sounds...
but we have it. makes the game feel gr8 :D
It will not be more immersiv ambiant sound is
then the breef cuddling, or neck rub or just smth to show dino emotions instead of standing still. And instead of intense fucking, its a nice replecement
I'd think something more akin to preening/grooming, social bonding, should not relate to nesting, more if you want to mark that you're bonded for one reason or another.
yeah or this :D
We are getting emotes, or at least it has been talked about, including shared ones, so there's at least potential for something like that.
just to give the bloody dinos some personality :D
Dino cuddling is more of a fantasm than a real thing that could happen to birds and reptiles. And again if you wanna rp, use your imagination with the animations that already existe.
i just love isle for the realism of it.. so seeing it would rlly be nice lol
... but it would be NOT realist. I don't defend the realism factor in the isle but here you are on contradiction with yourself.
Realism varies in importance in this game anyway.. :p
I mean REAL realism would be dinos fucking for real. but soft realism is some kind of close reaction with eachother ig..
Btw do you guys also experience some damn sound bug, where u cant hear when u stand in serten spots on the map or by rivers ect?
eh wdym skins..
you cant get other skins in isle..

aah ...
(about that conversation above) i'm not for "dino cuddles" or whatever but just "because it doesn't serve a purpose" doesn't mean it shouldn't be added, details are much appreciated in games like these, obviously something that "doesn't serve a purpose" wouldn't be prioritized of course but being looked on later when the game is reaching stability could still be a thing.
@digital plank i love the idea of having a fucking poison fit and just ben slowly slides in from the darkness
exactly
😭 i want that
the true reason the isle is a horror game
absolutely no animation
i want to sneak into some old merc outpost and find redacted files of danger rex 
just t-posing and sliding
T-posed 3D modeled and fully rendered
also a great idea
i'm worried for piss shit and mating in this game 
Puking on people is fine, occasionally pooping is bad.
You guys have weird priorities.
Actually searching Maori axe shows metal axes so here’s what I’m actually talking about
@bleak atlas sure, giga acro and carchar are similar (I say fuck carchar). and ava is similar to dibble, as is styraco. but how in the FUCK is pachyrhino similar to those 3? pachyrhino is a fractures based ceratopsian, compared to the other three which do piercing attacks
I carchar really coming to the game ? Where did people get that from ?
I hope not
I'm going to really ask myself questions if the same devs who said they didn't want clone animals in their game decided to add carcharodontosaurus along with giga, out of nowhere...
Unless they have a very good and inventive idea to make the two different
Why would we be getting a carcharo when we have both acro and giga. Are they're not very similar critters?
Or maybe carchar is planned but as a giga skin
It seems weird that they'd be working on a giga skin this early though
Yeah, I have no idea how they’ll separate the two making one unique from the other. Doesn’t make sense.
Carcaro sounds the most unique to me do away with acro imo
Best pick for a bleeder
Carcharo is literally giga with a slightly differently shaped chin
Teeth tho
Plus it’s smaller
So .. a subgiga? :p
Might cause some ingame issues, unless you just make them unable to nest but otherwise similar stats or something?
No clue, I would just save the trouble and just not do anything with carchar. We already have acro and giga
Fair enough, I'm inclined to agree, but if it is confirmed, then they'll have to do something with it I guess
They're genetically modified 
They both have 95% frog DNA
Go away with your JP fanfic, we have enough of that already :p
It's canon
Figures.. :p
#isle-discussion message
Scroll up a little for proof of context, basically someone asked what the 56'th dinosaur was so Filipe answered this
Oh I see
im pretty sure its because they want to do a redo of all the creatures they have created models for
seems like a waste to me though, acro is already similar enough to giga
It's hard to tell what devs are really planning for the game when they say things like this
I suspect Filipe likes to make the community mad by saying highly controversial things
Because they already said that if carchar was coming, it would probably be as a giga skin
yeah, I hope they don't add it. because all of those comments about making fun of tarbo now just make them sound like a hypocrite
If one of them says Tarbo is planned we'll know they're intentionnally driving the community mad
And honestly... I would probably do the same if I was part of the dev team
Time to add yuty 
I think the more informative scent system could be some sort of perk you have to develop
But even then it should rely on your own intuition and experience quite a bit
Probably a perk that gives scent trails different hues based on the animal, but to figure out which is which you have to figure it out
In my post about tribal weapons I mentioned how stuff like mattocks (the antler war pick) could be sourced from dinosaurs. Would it be too much to ask of a tribal to kill a huge ass Dinosaur just to get a better weapon? Killing a carno to make a fracturing hammer out of it’s horns seems like a good enough reward to me.
Grannie aint playin these games
I think tribals killing dinosaurs to make weapons out of their bones and body parts is pretty neat and I really hope it will be this way in-game. That gives off very strong Monster Hunter vibes
@barren zephyr I like the idea of the flap in combination with the hallucinogens being a biological “flash bang”
mute people that dont like poop and pee
Suggestion
@frigid storm
Muting people for having a stable and civil opinion is literally the worst thing we could do. We didn't do it for the dark times with a former Dev, we're not doing it because there are people that are fussy over a mechanic that might not come up for months or years.
That's just silly.
^
it's literally getting toxic at this point, imo. It's been said over and over and they're honestly not even giving critical feedback.
most feedback regarding feces i've seen seems perfectly civil
Muting people like that is just as toxic if not worse.
a lot of people disagreeing with a development choice is not toxic
it's not even disagreement at this point
I don't believe your measurement of toxicity is the same as the Moderation team's. These people have opinions, let them be voiced whether you agree or not. They're not harmful, they're just annoyed.
Think of it this direction: We don't mute people that hate the Magy, even as divisive as it is. We don't mute people that hate the Anky. We don't mute people that come in speaking out against perceived injustices in the community.
We're not muting someone because they hate a potential mechanic.
Might as well mute people who rightfully dislike alberto model, same thing following this logic
If we muted everyone that disagreed with something then this place would be a ghost town.
Most feedback about shit and piss has been pretty civil as others said
nah i've definitely seen it more about mockery and the like
Then report it when it comes up, ya dink.
We talk about reports we get. You've submitted none.
Don't complain about a problem, be part of it's solution.
you mean complain like all the people who don't like piss and shit?
ok
thanks for informing me on my report record
Don’t @ me for voicing my opinions and try to change my mind or something. I won’t respond. Thanks
People are being such babies about the piss and shit, like you don't do it everyday. I get some weirdos out there fetishize it but it can be used to add neat scenarios and mechanics.
also @somber wraith crocodiles don't eat each other in the wild....
They do
not like they do in this game at least
You put it together nicely (except for formatting, but DM me and I'll walk you through that to make it prettier).
Good job.
I don’t wanna have to post gore but they do
okay but it's not a primary part of their diet lmao
in this game as a deino you're eating them constantly
I dont see how that is much of a problem
Modern plants werent part of herbivorous dinosaur diets
The diets ingame dont reflect realistic diets of these creatures
Dont see much of a problem of it swaying off that path
Our herbis would only eat shit like ferns and ginkos
cannibalism isn't even common amongst crocodiles
the isle isn't supposed to be realistic, it's fine if an animal cannibalizes a lot, especially in an early state of the game where said animal has little competition .
It is
it's kind of similar to stegos hunting each other down
idc about realism for the sake of being realistic
it's pretty low.
Then don’t use realism as an argument 
realism for the sake of immersion is important, realism for the sake of just being real is not.
what

does piss and shit immerse you
yeah, actually
why
Realism and how it impacts the animals gameplay is the most important thing
Hundreds of apex crocodilians isnt the best for gameplay, allowing them to benefit from cannibalism can aid in such a thing
roaming into a territory and seeing animal droppings would add to the immersion, i'd think "oh shit, that's a big dino," or "nothing to worry about, those are smaller droppings."
If the game is meant to be a survival game, then neither AI, nor prevention of cannibalism is a hinder for that. Since PvP does not make a survival game, any more than PvE does. And the game is PvPvE. Nor do you need to be able to cannibalize to have a survival game. And while people are free to disagree on if there should be "shit" in the game, it has been given examples of ingame mechanics and purposes for such things, no matter the medium of choice.
i don't even wanna talk about shit anymore though y'all are obsessed
I mean you're the one who wants it in the game so bad
Says the one that wants it in the game
Calling the ones who dont wish for it to be added obsessed seems a tad bit wrong imo
nobody is saying cannibalizing shouldn't be possible though
i don't think anyone wants to talk about shit
or wants it in game
Ah well then that was a simple misunderstanding unstable
im just saying it should be discouraged
And that is where I will disagree
cannibalism is sometimes necessary, and i get that, but it's also unhealthy
some species yes, others no
crocs are not inherently cannibalistic, only really to young- which honestly i've seen all animals do
deinosuchus
it will be discourage for a lot of carnivores, but for an apex alligator with 0 competition and a niche hunting style it makes perfect sense
the closest living relative(might be alligators idk)
it'll have competition in form of sucho and spino
I dont see the need to discourage it outside of the entire
"You are facing an animal who is a similar strength to you so you may die in the process"
except that's not usually when cannibalism happens
usually it's more like a group attacking a solo
You can still possibly die in those situations
and usually that group has the express purpose of cannibalising
Or be rendered useless due to the amount of injuries you take
as a croc idk, you don't have much room to outplay opponents
Currently no
More aquatic biomes
Maybe if nesting and generally having your species thriving would be beneficial, there would be no need for as much cannibalism deterrents.
More ways to escape
gator
gator makes more sense because of the shape of the snout
Deino combat is currently facetank fiasco
Same applies to carno
Things like proper collision boxes can fix this imo
Carno vs carno is far easier to just facetank the opponent
first to hit generally wins as well
why would you do that
As thats the easiest way to win
You get the first hit, you're guaranteeed to win if you just make sure to trade blows?
it's the fastest
This is a same species combat scenario
The thing you are fighting is also the fastest
plus locational damage means that facetanking isn't effective as going for headshots inbetween charges
and the carno has a knockdown ability...
The charge is incredibly easy to dodge
it is, but doesn't diminish the fact that you should still use it
and in some cases puts the carno in a worse position due to the stam drain
Why would I use something that will only hit if my opponent is braindead or already stuck in some other manner
Ill only charge if I have an ambush of sorts on my opponent
you technically run fast during a charge, so you can hit an opponent just barely ahead of you
faster*
Its still very easy to dodge
Hell its pretty enjoyable to watch carnos repeatedly miss charges as well
Gives me the vibes of those bullfighters
@thorny lynx Forced fear mechanic isn't a good idea. In a good horror game, it's the player that feels fear, not the creature itself. If a player controlling the creature doesn't feel fear, you shouldn't force it to look afraid.
But why would a hypsi not fear a T-rex
Because the rex has no reason to kill the hypsi
If the player is not afraid, it's not afraid, that's all.
because many Animals experience fear diffrent
never seen tiny birds bravely attack way larger animals dont caring at all ?
I think a better idea is to just make the dino's idle animation should get more and more frantic
I still say a T-rex broadcasting close by should make smaller dinos' screens shake.
Or at least fog up your screen if he is in your face and you are very small
Because of sound, maybe, but not because of fear.
Not enough to blind, but because of his hot stinky breath is sending drool and fogging up your camera
Actually having your screen shake when something much bigger than you roars directly at you sounds pretty neat
No thoughts on this?
I don't think it's really necessary. If a player is nervous, they will act in a nervous way by themselves.
I say a hgpsi should definitely fear a carno. Hearing it roar should automatically change its behavior.
Not automatically. Don't automate behavior in something that you're supposed to be controlling yourself.
What about dinosaurs turning their heads to danger noises? The fact they just stand there and scratch their heads when an allo nearby is beyond me.
IK but I think it adds a nice visual touch
They turn their head in the direction you're looking at. That's enough.
well ... then your hide in a bush (carno not seeing you)
then he roars and your hypsi starts moving and wobbling around out of fear and you get spottet
I still think large dinos should fog up your screen a little bit and show drool dropping down your screen.
That might be a little exxagerrated
You have to stand very very close to something roaring so that its drool covers your eyes.
also mayn real life Animals in many cases not get spooked by an predator
a lot just freeze and duck down or dont move at all
I wish big dino roars at least did... something. Other than sound scary. Shake your screen a little bit.
That would cause a problem for players in sandbox servers tho
This is sometimes the best option
It means you don't risk being spotted while running, and it lets you see what ur hiding from
Exactly. When I play hypsi and hear a carno roar, I crouch and turn my head to search where it is. And it would be terrible to have some AI do it in my place.
when Animals encounter a predator or hear one /spot one
they mostly hide away
fleeing is the last resort
panicing dont bring you anything
you really have to spook an Animal extremly that it completly panics
and in most cases then even a Rabbit or deer will go on the attack
Combat just needs a huge rework because it's ither just "I'm 1% bigger than you so I win" or with utahs "there's more of us than u". There needs to be some sort of actual combat with sweet spots and tank spots and grappling
So like basically dinosaur wrestling
isnt actually true
you get diffrent dmg from diffrent spots
head/throat hits make more dmg then a hit on the tail
also samll carnos utahs etc shouldnt anyway run around on an open field ,,,
they literally scream kill me
Yep
Why doesn't utah raptor use its claws? They are 9 inch length daggers on its feet?
pounce does not exist
pounce uses it mouth if you look at it
it bites during the animation
i dont see it slashing with its dagger
hell does the model even have dagger feet
It is latched on with its claws
arm claws or feet claws
the utah model does have a toe claw good sir
well I just feel like biting is what 90% of players do
thats all i ever notice
When I think of utah in the game i just picture it using its mouth
Yeah utah players definitely use their mouth a lot
Bite bite bite bork bork bite bork
Its the easiest thing to do
maybe the claw needs to be a attack
when yaour look closely the utah uses the bite and scratch with theyr feet when they pounce something especially when its a pounce that pinnes someone down
a claw would be more effective on large prey?
since you cant put your mouth on a agood angle
If its bite damage was reduced by a good amount and pounce was reworked it would be better honestly
Same with carno but when more small stuff is in
No i mean its special ability
the horns?
Pounce and charge both being special abilities
the claws would be way to "fragile"
like the teeth of abertooth cats then use them in direct combat
in real the Raptors (any kind) would probably just pounce a prey item
then use the claw like a dagger and hit the throat
then jump of and wait until the animals bleeds out
so they dont have no worrys of getting hurt themself
like saurpods or the duck billed guys
??? Carno hunting sauropods and hadrosaurs?
Hell no
He’s supposed to be a small game hunter
I meant like a pack
You think a carno could hunt a sauropod or hadrosaur 
No
Carno was a hunter of animals not even half its size
not by itself
Carno pack limit should be reduced when more small game is in
Carno was not even build to hunt anythign big
Lel
well i dont see how you can use its horn on tiny prey
your taller
you gonna like bob your head downwards
Not every carni is supposed to be brawling shit
might as well use the mouth
after a quick test i can confirm that pounce uses the toe claws a bunch
Its horns are mostly decorative, it is using blunt impact
oh
in game you just can ram things over as Carno
real live Carnos probalby didnt use theyr horns for anythign combat relatet
Ambushing in and ramming small prey to cripple it and then finish it off
Carno should be ambushing with his ram not brawling yeah
Its a surprise attacker who runs in and stuns you before you can get away
It more or less is a quick, close-off-your-escape Dino
People rn use it to brawl because there isnt a lot of small game aside from utahs who are all over the place and the unfortunately apparently common idea that all carnis should hunt everything
When Pachy is introduced, that’s more small game for Carnos
all i have seen so far is Utahs spending 90 % on rocks
or Team (no joke) with Deinos on the pond
depends a lot of how much a Pachy weights in the end
i still wanna see 2 pachys being able to cripple a carno legs and push him back 5 feet off a cliff if done right lol
It’s going to weigh less than a Utah afaik
But still
Carnos 1 vs 1 have a bad time agiasnt tenos
now think a critter who can cripple you
Pachys ram will prob break a carnos leg
actually a real life Pachy weight up to a Ton
so two times as much as an utah
Well yeah
atleast a 2v1 you can take turns running in and out
or do a dual ram him off a cliff
But generally if carno fucks up its hunt against a Pachy, that carnos going to be low on stam and the Pachy will ram its leg and run off
yes
A single Pachy will break a carnos leg..
Now if it’s a group of Pachys..
Well
You better NOT FUCK UP THAT HUNT
Dear god
run off ..in real yes
in a game played by humans more like
oh the carno is now slower then me ?
lets kill him
Remember just because the carno is slow doesn’t mean it can’t alt-turn.
So if that’s the case
It’s suicide to turn back and fight the carno with a fractured leg
Especially if it’s attack damage is I don’t know, 350N
if maybe Pachy weights a ton or even more
in Legacy it weights 1,3 tonns
Legacy has poor balance
it can demolish a carno then
even the devs said Pachy will not be a pushover
Yeah it won’t be a pushover, but that doesn’t say it’ll demolish a carno
He’s pretty much saying Pachy is something to be cautious about
Mainly due to its fractures
Breaking a bone could cost you your life
Either by being ambushed afterwards or starving
Or dehydrated
probably the most thing that will hapen
randome Deino walkign towards you and kills you
think proto is soft confirmed to get burrows.
like it happens even now sometimes when your just sitting somewhere waiting
getting charged by a pachy as a carno seems like death if your not full on hunger.
maybe not death but a major pain.
@barren zephyr make a it a bit bigger and make the knobs a little more jagged. it just looks too smooth and small. Maybe that model could be the female instead?
are they fr adding shit in the game
what are you talking about?
brachi hasent said anything in a day.
if your talking about the saurian one then thats what anky looked like
^that is cursed
yeah that looks too wimpy
that is the anky we are getting
wel lthat what the real animal was
spinosaur in the game is edited to be more mean looking
even though its only like 50% correct nowadays
all im asking is for slighty jagged knobs and some jagged horn things
and for it to be a tad bigger
so not anky
your asking for zuul or saichania
that is a terrible size chart.
or the jurassic world Anky
^
we dont need a glorified trilobite for an anky.
which is cool
our spino looks like trash.
well you want a waddle penguin croc modern spino
wimpy wimpy wimpy.
fucking disgusting
like a fish
it has a sub rex sull in its face and its sail is tiny.
jurassic park anky dont have anythign to do with the real thing no jP dino have
because thats a real spino
we could have gotten this
is the modern new spino
actually visually appealing spino.
why not lol
but no. we got this stupid fucker
wait you all want a fish croc spino
i thought yall like monster spino
that chases things in the forest
also our spinos color pallete is trash.
for this we have rex,char ,,acro etc
#general-feedback-discussion message
I want this, the perfect blend of accurate and monster without looking like dumb
carchar is such a stupid addition if it ends up being its own playable.
taps spino is golden.
so if you are allowed monster spino, why is my suggestion of making anky a bit biger with sharp blunt spike knobs a ludicrious idea
why cant we have both
Piggy wants monster parts

maybe get rid of Acro and replace it with charc ,,,, both dont really fit
I mean, I would prefer everything be perfectly accurate, but that would mean alot of the creatures become unviable
acro has more place than carchar
acro is the og and a devpick. carch is a carbon coppy of giga.
carchar is giga but ever so slightly smaller and a slightly different head shape
if anky is that smooth and the knobs are that far apart/small how is it gonna take a trex chomp on its back like its suppose to
id rather we have semi realistic designs that are still styleized but look recognizable.
by being wide so the teeth cant even get through the skin.
so how some woodlice and armadillos battle predators (not the rollign in a ball part) but its hard to bite somethign smooth
The game is not supposed to be that realistic
I dont like our anky too but I doubt they will change their design now...
our anky has spikes on the base of its tail that are super exagerated. they are perfect for keeping a predator from biting its leg muscles.
are the devs really adding shit and piss?
it somehow remidns me of an Heron ... XD
when i saw austro i thought it was a strain.
giggle chicken
think they were going for a heron style design but it looks like a chimera thats missing bones.
How many giggle chickens to defeat a Duckzilla
i think its funny how this guy gets the its a "semi-quatic /water dino in legacy
but Cerato who have even more stuff going on living near water dont XD
austro was planned to be a fisher for a long time.
cerato might get a slightly above average swim speed in evrima.
cerato wont be diving with stamina though.
i mean theyr are a few fossil finds of microraptor with fish inside the stomach ,,, but that dont make it a fisher or aqatic XD
think thats because it fell on some fish and suffocated them in the anoxic lakes.
nvm thats archa
interesting if its microraptor.
i would actually like if they made Cerato the one dino to "battle" the crocs
like real Cerato ate Crocodiles and Cerato sitn that small
when thinking that Evrima Deino is way to heavy
real it was only a bit over 3 tonns
Cerato would get clapped by anything that isn’t a juvi
nope in Legacy yes in Evrima not anymore
when you look at Ceratos concept art you have him hunt a Deino just lsightly smaller then himself
even a Carno can now clap an Adult Deino if you know how
Cerato will be probalby way more dmg output then Carno but slower
if you want pop control for deino add sucho as it could take 3 ton deinos.
Also Cera weighs less so it will be able to get grabbed earlier
i hope they fix the stamina drain on deinos lunge.
a utah drains the same stamina as teno and carno.
you could simply make animals even waying less unable to get grabbed at all
Deino’s entire gameplay revolves around grabs
And Cera has nothing that would make sense for it not to get grabbed
something like diablo or kentro are some of the only things i can see being immune to grabs on parts of their body.
dont grab a diablo by the face or you get horns through your mouth. dont try grabbing kentro unless you have a perfect head shot or belly shot as you will get spiked.
cause animals who huntet or Hunt Crocodiles even today have generall a defens agaisnt the grab
Jaguars can even swim up to a same size Caiman and kill it
any deino that can grab cera is not around its size
That is different than something like cera
Like I believe you have to be half the weight to get grabbed
How fat is cera again
And how much does our deino weigh
So the deino would have to be like a bit over 25% or something like that if it’s half the weight you can hrab
Hmm
you go from like 4-5 tons to 8 tons in the last 20% or so
Deino would only need to be around 2 tons to do so
if its 2x for the grab
it might be 3x as deino needs to be decently grown to grab carno
think its 2.5-3x for a grab
in the end we wil lse wehat the devs have planed in this
cause a lot of the animals have skills and stuff the real animal dont had
as you need to be at least 1.5 tons to grab utah.
like climbing for herrera or mimicing for troodon
Well our Utah weighs almost a ton
utah is only 500 kg
half ton weight
ive been told its 3x i think
Even then a deino who’s lunging at that size means Cera has little chance of escape
3x? Since when?
As I don’t see it wriggling out of a 3 ton deino
the thing that anyway no matter what should be addet is
that Dinos actually can "buck" if grabbed
you should be able to fight back to drain more stam when grabbed/pinned
They shouldnt let people keep sound while minimized because it encourages afk
Literally caters to people who tab out and watch youtube
its still 2x, so you need to be 3.6 tonnes t grab carno
gotta love getting naseous from having your camera in a dinos face.
Why is so many crying about the possibility of Dino poop in the game.... animals poop, wtf.
Blood and gore is fine but excrement is where we draw the line? XD
Because its unnecessary
Ark has poop in the game, so does Red Dead Redemption 2 and I don't remember anyone complaining in those communities.
The game would look weird af without the blood and gore but it is perfectly fine without shit
Well weird is very subjective... if biting and animal and it not bleeding is weird, then an animal eating and then not pooping is quite weird if u ask me.
We get enough info on a dino from its foot tracks and large groups also make scent clouds
Well it could be a way to tell if the animal your tracking is a carni or herbi
We are un worthy of such a godly addition
No its not weird to not have shit unless youre super picky and need super realism
I dont want ark type shit especially
There is absolutely 0 reason for an animation and sound
We already get info from footprints
Do you yourself shit in red dead?
Makes the game more impressive
Impressive
Lmao
Woah my dino took a dump i am so impressed
Yeah I find taking a fat shit in the jungle impressive
I love how everyone hated the idea of poop when the devs didn’t confirm it, but once they did a huge portion of the playerbase like it now.
The horde was alerted
It's not about it being impressive... Jesus, it's just a cool addition... like chill out.
People think theyll get brownie points for backing the devs or something, no pun intended
Or is it even a pun... hmm
Anyway its an unnecessary mechanic
But muh pooo
Every tracking aspect is already accessible via footprints, group scent, and bleed, as well as any others that can be added in less revolting ways
They showed a carno scraping a tree in concept so stuff like that can be used to mark areas instead of piss too
Goddamit I’m starting to think I live in an illumination movie
Drinking and eating actually has meaning as a mechanic
Really now?
Yes
Yeah its survival
Taking a shite in the woods has no meaning as a mechanic
Where does the stuff u just eat go again?
The void
Go play Minecraft
It’s very easy to just not have it in the game
Just don’t add it-problem solved 
Just add it, problem solved
Who actually stops and thinks while playing their dino sim “wow this game isnt immersive enough because im not dropping some fat deuces after eating a bush, time to refund”
Like just dont think about it
No-one
Its not hard
But it's the little things that add up u simpleton... I'm done.
I mean what if like every game that had food of some sort added shit
Or since when you die, you shit, every game where you die should add shit
Fruit ninja is in desperate need of a poop mechanic, where does the fruit go?
Lmao
I just don’t understand why everyone likes it all the sudden
That's the second time u made that joke
I like to think they just come out of the woodwork
If u could call it that
Its not a joke its the reason
That’s literally the reason
Some people will agree with anything the devs do
they literally only like the pooping mechanic just because the devs like it and they want to feel “different”
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that as soon as people start supporting poop, cum and mating anim suggestions start showing up 
god no.
Exactly
wait what
Theres a hidden little community of degenerates

Yeah no, it's impossible for people to just genuinely have a different opinion on the matter... now do you realise why I called u a simpleton.
Yes, scroll up in general feedback
Multiple people
Give these people an inch and they want a mile
“Mute everyone that complains about the poop”
My favorite part of this whole scenario
asking to be laughed at
lol i like how someone was like “stop complaining about poop” and right after theres people complaining about poop
Get over yourselves.... animals leave scat -_-
Animals also randomly catch diseases and die should we add that
minecraft piss update
They do it from performing everyday activity so it is
A mosquito can bite you irl and give you a fucked up disease if youre unlucky
Catching illness is essentially just chance
this whole stuff reminds me of this one scene of Walking with beast
where a hyenodon killed a colicotherium and then entelodons showed up
and the hyenodon shits on the carcass to hide its scent XDD
How the heck is that random?
How is it not?
Because if you get bit by a mosquito
You have a chance
A chance implies randomness
How is this so hard to grasp
So you would call a tiger hunting u random?
No
Hahaha
What
Mosquito = tiny tiger
How does that make literally any sense in the situation whatsoever
meet the penugins who use shit to fight of Vampire bats XD
its reality
dont get me wronge im not a big fan of this ides (pooping/peeing)
but well
I know animals do weird shit with shit irl but we dont need it in a dino pvp survival sim lol
Idk man
I personally can suspend my disbelief to just not care if my animals shits and pisses or not
Yeah its easy to not think about it if your mind isnt in bad places
Im not losing immersion because of it
I took a shit
make every playable take years to grow so my immersion remains unbroken
nah poop adds a lot, other animals can smell your poop to find out your health, gender, species, size, location, and ip adress
dont forget credit card information
I don't know why u would go out of your way to stop such a mechanic... irl, hunters use scat and tracks to track down animals... so it adds something. Also some animals use pee pee to mark territory (there's a possible new mechanic).
there are less gross ways to do both of those things
That’s so much info for something you can’t control and drop on a regular basis
Why
because we desperately need to give poop a reason to be added

We already have footsteps

And territory marking is something that isn’t planned and could be done without pissing
So u didn't read my entire comment... love it.
like poop and pee is fine or whatever on paper, until you realize there are many other ways to achieve what it does
Agree, you can’t deny that it has it’s purposes, but you can do things like that without actually adding gross shit.
now bigger question did dinosaurs even ,,,well peed ?
birds ,reptiles and so one not really pee ...
XD
When red dead came out and I saw my horse drop a bucket of shit, I never once thought... that's unnecessary, why did the devs add that. PEOPLE -_-
Wasnt red dead going tryhard for realism
i'm sure the majority of people would prefer you just leave some scent on plants you brush up against instead of taking a shit every so often, and it could be expanded upon so you have to take care of your dinosaur by cleaning in water and taking dust baths to lower your scent
Pooping is bush camping prevention tho
red dead had shrinking horse balls, they were definitely going for hyper realism
I’m sorry what?
Oh god i remember reading about that
diets
diets moment, also literally the day poop was announced punch talked about potentially creatures gaining body odor if they dont wash off enough
If you think red dead is hyper realistic then I don't know what else to say to you xD
Whats wrong with multiple reinforcing mechanics to achieve the same thing?
They’re redundant and one is gross
They went for detail... there's a big difference.
No i mean they went through effort to add hyperrealistic details
we dont need poop, pee, diets, and body odor
Waste of resources
realistic, unnecessary, detail
Body odor for AFKers could work but the rest is unneeded
You can do that without adding people have been against for ages now
there's gotta be an odour for afkers who sit still all day growing
and is visibly disgusting
Which adds to the immersion... I mean the devs of Red Dead thought it was a good idea but then what do they know about immersion, we just need to listen to u.
Lol whats disgusting about poop? Its literally everywhere. Like have you been in a forest ever?
Visibly seeing something shit is not something I wish to look at
Just because it’s everywhere doesn’t mean it isn’t disgusting to most people?
Ark shit isnt immersive
something occurs a lot = cant be a certain thing
So why would it be immersive in the isle
Doesn't have to be a long and painful animation lmao, it could just be a quick drop.
Does it need to be an animation at all
Damn, my Dino didn’t take a fat load in the forest.. immersion broken smh
Does it need to be added at all when other mechanics
Which dont even need animations can do similar things
