also its using echo location to see inn the dark and home in on its target. not sufficating. lmao XD
@strange quiver tbh the mud everywhere was kinda OP and madr it allmost impossible to track a vounded prey
Exactly
All a teno would have to do was run in the giant bushes in on the river bank and wallow
Only suicidal Utahs would try to follow a teno in there
i think the next dino they should come out with after pachy is allo so we can balance the carno
Cerato*
Yes it's smaller, but beefier
i mean they come out with cera and thats what everyones gonna play lol
That would be worse with Allo, since it'd become the largest available land predator
Nothing in the current roster can compete with an allo, except maybe stego
Mix packing will happen regardless. Having every herbi give nutrients will just make things too easy for carnis and theyll still mixpack in the end
Canni debuffs also still beat starving
Deino?
Since when is Deino a land predator ?
I mean does deino go on land
Have you..never played this game before?
Balance problems aren't a gameplay direction choice
Let’s think about how viable is deino really is on land
The only thing a deino is catching on land and killing is a juvi stego
And even then, juvi stegos are SLIGHTLY slower than deinos on land
Being killed by a deino on land 9 times out of 10 is you’re fault
Deino In no shape or form is a land predator
I mean it is a predator that can go on land 
guys does the queue work?
@pallid burrow I think it is happening!
Oh very noice
The concepts are in #phase-two-archive
Do you think one day they'll add prehistoric animals to the game not from the dinosaur era. Like I'm talking post dinosaur. Terror birds, mammoths, giant sloths, smilodon, cave bears...etc
Other than titanboa and megalania, no
Kinda sucks but understanble
Maybe the Isle 2? Lol
Why are people against a full grown multi ton stego one shotting a carno even though stego had to compete with a much bigger threat, Allosaur during it's time. That's like saying trike shouldn't be able to badly hurt a Allosaur even though it had to fight T rexes which were wayyy stronger?
That's what these animals evolved to compete tooth and nail with. Something smaller or weaker should be a much easier kill/defense
It still baffles me
Like the thagomizer length on a stegos tail are nearly twice the width of a carno skull
The isle carno is slowly but surely turning into Disney dinosaurs carno
I feel like one of the devs saw this video about carno and took it a bit too literally
"♪'P' is for 'priceless', the look upon your faces♪
♪'E' is for 'extinction', all your puny races♪
♪'R' for 'revolution', which will be televised♪

I agree with chop, I wanna hear some terror inducing bellows
I know that everyone hates utha but I like it and Im missing more legs oriented attacks. Far as I read they should have powerful legs able to kick and rip with their 23-30cm sharp claws. I would love to see second special attack in form similar to pounce but just to slash and cut with its legs 😄 but i guess lot of people would hate it
@civic anvilIt's because utah is desgined as attrition large game hunter with bleed, not damage. So it doing the kind of attacks you describe wouldn't work with how it's balanced for now.
Realism doesn’t equal balance
I mean I understand that you need to sacrifice something for balance but for me it is like if you made stego to sway its tail only to one side.
Well, I mean... We have a stego that "jabs" instead of swings, so you're not entirely wrong :p And yeah, I get it, but it's how they designed things, just like how they designed carno with a charge, or deino to use it's lunge and thus having very "weak" biteforce.
I just read today lot of information about Utha from as much sources as i could find and even if there are differences in for example weight or if they lived in packs, or just occasionaly formed them, there was always one bottom line something like this "Utahraptor would have been an extraordinary killing machine. It is estimated that it reached 20 feet in length and weighed close to a ton. Two-inch serrated “steak knife” teeth in a skull a foot and a half long, blade-like claws up to 10 inches long on its hands combined with 15-inch killing sickle-claws on its feet, and a fast, highly agile body would make a Polar Bear or Siberian Tiger lucky to survive five seconds in the ring with this creature." And this just truly doesnt feel even close like this in game 😄 that is little bit sad because they are iconic for that. But...it is hard to judge how it will be when game is fully ready and fully finished
I don't think that's all that accurate. Utah did not weight that much IRL, nor was it very agile, it was a surprisingly slow and bulky animal. Think of a raptor trying to be a rex and you get the idea. The playable we have in game is nowhere near what an actual utahraptor would be, it only shares the name.
So in any case, comparing it to IRL utah just doesn't work. What we have in game is a JP raptor, and they don't function like actual utahraptors would by any means.
@civic anvil pack hunting
pack hunting is fun but not always possible so depending only on that is not good gameplay 😄
solo utahs are meant to go for smaller targets
One thing I want changed though, is less stamina drain during a pounce so that a pounce rewards you more than just draining your stam
Pounce does massive bleed though
yea ofcourse but if you as utha get in situation 1v1 even against tougher one or bigger one I think you still should be considered as treath but i rarely feel like that 😄 everyone attacking first because they can one hit so they trying and pushing...even pounce if you miss is penalted with animation 😄
a 1v1 teno vs utah?
teno should have a clear advantage
Considering both carno and teno are balanced to counter utahs, I don't think a utah, or even two, would stand a good chance vs a single one of them.
1v1 utah winning isn't balanced
i think it should but if utha managed to get on teno teno would be heavily if not mortaly wounded
bleed
and a pounce is only successful if the teno doesn't buck
better to be patient and pick off smaller tenos in a group than go for a larger one
canor populations will go down as more dinos are added
@golden iron I totally agree. everything thats eating meat except ptera is iterally overpowered right now. Not only that as a juvi herbivore you stand no chance at all, also the fact that they grow 100 times faster than herbivores
that's why herbivores tend to move in herds
not to mention, they took like 90% of the plains foliage away so how are juvie stegos who are forced to live there supposed to survive? 99% of the times ive been killed during the test as stego, its a carno that sees me in the distance because theres literally no cover at all. Plus, ive yet to find a single mud pit so wallowing is near impossible now too.
growing an apex isn't supposed to be a cakewalk my guy
but it shouldnt be fucking impossible.
i find it easier to go to more obscure parts of the map instead of sticking to the main central plains
you do realize stegos are forced to the plains right
Yeah, there’s almost no chance to grow anything at center anyways
there isn't just 1 plains on the whole map
^
good luck getting there at all anyways, carnos are everywhere
again, its not supposed to be easy
carno is currently apex level pred with only a 2 hour grow time, now less
It'll probably be more balanced when not everyone is a carno too
there shouldn’t even be this many carnos in the first place, it’s just due to the lack of interesting playables
But yes, it should be difficult to successfully grow a stego or any other apex level animal, simple as that. If you don't really want to be one, there are other alternatives to play
being difficult and being impossible are two different things
they see big scary theropod they click
its not impossible
ive yet to make it to 10% as a stego and ive gone through countless runs now since it was added
How many runs, if you know?
am I the only one that feels like teno should be able to fracture carnos skull or atleast give it a broken jaw if a teno is just slamming down on its head using its tail?
you having issue with it doesn't make it impossible
probably like 15 at this point, probably more i stopped counting
i never make it more than 10 minutes without being seen
even though im very careful
and once one carno sees, here come the rest so it doesnt matter if you kill one
I think it's excessively difficult right now cause everyone is a carno, when it's a bit more evened out, it shouldn't be quite as bad, so it's hard to say
But yeah, I can get the frustration after 15 deaths
it wont be evened out, because everyone spam plays carno anyways
it will never stop until they add another dino that they can abuse and overpack
hopefully pachy will tame these stupid infestations
I remember the game as enjoyable, but once they added carno the whole atmosphere changed to just an annoying survival
i think carno is going to slap pachy ngl
Wait you talking bout apex? Then lets mention deino which is apex but literally the easiest thing to grow in whole the isle
felipe said on his stream that pachy headbutt wont break a carnos leg
WHAT
it has to
and im assuming it'll only take 3-4 attacks to kill a pachy
So pachy is useless too I see
theres no other way to get awya other than break the legs an run
um hold on let me see if i can get the clip
I remember when some foolish people kept saying diets would fix the herbi population and carnos are still the easiest things to grow so far lmao
everything is useless against carno
you cant chase after them cause the
they'll always be faster
deino is a special case
Well, if things worked out better maybe it would have helped. I think most of us really believed this would work out well, but.. :p
also I think herbivores should get more camouflage than carnis. like dude they look like foliage, while you still can cleary see a stego in the middle of a forest even tho its GREEN XDD
Im glad my expectations were already low
Also, if pachy can't break carnos legs, then what is it supposed to do? Wasn't the entire point to break carno leg, then run the hell away?
deino is a bullshit case. its too easy
Now its just herbis have to search for food and carnis just have to wait for them to show up
Easy life for carnos
literally. Its just uber eats now
They made carnis into pizza delivery simulator
like ptera is okay. you can grow ptera any time you want. its easy. but at least it wont oneshot you by only looking at you
Why isn’t teno on carnos diet btw
Just wait and dont put any extra work in
and good luck getting away once you're spotted. No foliage for babies, no logs to hide, nothing
I started playing BoB and ive really enjoyed being able to take cover from weather in trees and logs and under rocks, plus the natural disasters make it very fun and its the perfect way to keep people moving. I wish the isle would take the same course
also not even a main problem that carnis literally buttride all herbivores no matter what. the real problem is that they keep overkilling. like youd have a lake with 2498529 bodies and theyd still would kill your baby dryo ass
they're trying too hard to be a different game, despite their lore being the same as literally any dino movie/game. Dinos vs humans. The isle is just going to turn into jurrassic park
The new system has just taken herbis who were already vastly outnumbered and removed their ability to avoid predators reliably and instead deliver themselves to carnos who now dont even need to hunt
Encourages braindead carnis and discourages touching herbi
Exacly
Exactly what i feared would happen
I used up almost all spawn locations because of the amount of times my little stego couldnt run from the op carno
they should make carnis grow slower and have a way harder diet so they dont kill everything they see
Diets wont stop kfs as is seen
Kfs shohldnt be stopped honestly but the mass killing is ridiculous
Because they have the time to do it and herbis dont have the time to do anything but look for food
Due to diets, carnis will probably have a lot easier time nesting as well
definitely, it should be rewarding to get to adult as a carnivore, but anyone can do it now super super easy.
like right now again carnos running INTO my spikes and I get killed and he gets NO damage
This is A shitty hitbox
Considering 90% of diet punishment falls on herbs, yeah. Supposedly carni's "need" more leniency on diet debuffs but if the QA test is proving anything its the exact opposite. Diets should swing the game population largely in Herb favor so that you have only a handful of badass carni's and a wide range of Everything Else
As Carno is set up right now, its literally begging to be abused
Which means its begging to be the only thing played because no one wants to play just to be Bully Fodder
Definitely, honestly i dont get why they thought carnis would need leniency when herbis are forced to go to certain locations that makes them easy to find and you just have to literally camp and wait for them with 0 effort required
Carno’s charge shouldn’t have fracture whos idea was that
Fracture makes sense for it but yeah its stupid because it encourages brawling
i feel the only way to fix it is to have certain limits to how many players can be on the map as certain dinos. So if theres already 15 carnos, too bad play something else or wait until one dies.
Hard limits are pretty awful, it should just be harder to grow carni
and again got pounced by utah for fun
Carnis should have to work way more than herbis to keep themselves healthy
They said they didn’t want fracture to be a death sentence but if a carno hits a teno and fractures it there’s literally nothing that teno can do
dude if id get a dollar for everytime someone kills me for no reason Id be a millionaire
This is ridicoulus
Carnis are incentivized to sport kill while herbis barely even have time to stop and enjoy the landscape
AND EVEN as a fully grown stego you stand no chance against 2 carnos
cuz they gonna come and buttride you together since your own hitrange is smaller than hypsis spit range
Imagine how bad kentro will be now
damn
fracture for carno should absolutely be a death sentence. Do they think a pachy would be faster than a carno that they can run up and break their leg? No, the carno would be the one making the mistake of getting too close to a pachy. Same with utah being one shot by stego. The whole point of the game is if you make a mistake you die. Thats the survival aspect
Man j was looking forward to kent but apparently the devs want carnis to be immune to spikes
yeah he said that it will stun the carno (im assuming like tenos tail slam)
they should balance out carnis and herbs before adding a shitload ton of new dinos
i found the clip
YOU LOST YOUR CROWN DUDE
yea but what then? can a pachy headbut it to death or will the carno get out of the stun and kill it
Here: 👑
im assuming multiple shots the leg would break it
A few more highlights! Hopefully it'll be finished soon, I thiiink these were all the fancy visual things he showed, but you can peek at Filipe's stream here in the meantime to find the goodies I've cut/forgotten/not gotten to yet! It might take me awhile depending on how much time I have to sort through it all.
I've got a decent chunk of the p...
12:25 second mark
"should stagger the carno, nothing else"
If a stego can one shot a utah for being stupid, a pachy can break a carnos leg for being stupid. Its their mistake, and they need to be punished for it.
They really want carno to meet 0 resistance huh
If pachy cant break carno leg then carno will remain the apex predator
very easily actually, utah players are not intelligent
i miss the legacy carno tbh, it was a danger to small dinos, but ervima carno is just a smaller version of the disney dinosaur Carno
Who's the carno enthusiast in the dev team who got to run amok on the new update
Evrima Carno is basically the new Legacy Rex, especially since it can do fracture/bone break now lmao
Legacy carno had an awful bite hitbox but it was better than the ezgrow rex we currently have
Except if Rex was faster and had a buttload of stam
It was supposed to be, break carno leg, run away. Stick around and fight, and you still die to the carno. I think that sounds reasonable enough personally.
fix the hit box, and it was a decent carno
Like you could have your face right on something and it wouldnt land in legacy
I think carno should get a stam increase, but should be slower than utah. Carno does not need stam, speed, damage and health. Thats pure OP and leaves the utah unviable
now we literally have a cheetah allo
Utah is unviable because pounce sucks
Carno's whole shtick was speed, making it slower than utah would just make it discount cerato. He should stay fast but he shouldnt excel in other fronts
And has sucked since day 1
exactly
especially now, that they added inertia, you can barely out turn them anymore
then get rid of carno and add cerato. Would make the game much more enjoyable
Carno currently owns the whole game.
I always questioned why carno was the Dino they decided on
i would rather 10 ceras vs 10 carnos tbh
Right now carno not only has speed, but power and even agility on his side due to inertia screwing over smaller dinos
because they're stupid and dont ask what the community wants, its like a restaurant where you're not allowed to order and they give you whatever they feel like that day
He should have power and agility sacrificed for speed, rely on landing a charge and if he fucks up hes out of stam and has to recover
atleast with cera, you should be able to out run them, and make it harder for them to maintain food in giant packs
are you kidding? You can pounce at any growth stage which is op
once pounce does more bleed itll be good
Remove utah from the game if u want it to be this unplayable
Utah pounce as a mechanic has always been fine. The damage/bleed has varied from stupidly OP to more or less reasonable. I'm not sure utah current bleed is bad, though it could be an issue for smaller raptors perhaps.
Granted, there's been all sorts of issues with the pounce, but as a concept and mechanic it's worked, more or less at least.
im not sure how adult utahs bleed is now, no one makes it to adult 
I mean it is their game, so they can add what they want. The problem is the balance so heavily favors Carno that it might as well be singing Everything You Can Do I Can Do Better as it merrily charges across the fields KOSing everything in sight including a psuedo-apex that weighs 3-4x more than it and has giant Fuck Off tail spikes that could turn it into a kebab
the game needs to go back to, make a mistake and you're over. Its too forgiving combat wise and heavily favors in carno
Because for some reason someone didn't think about how to make diets :p
I'm pretty sure all utahs need is to be able to eat carnos as well as the boars, and they'll do a whole lot better
if you want me to be honest, utah and carno should switch diets.
Carno = eat utah, teno, boars, dryo. Utah = eat carno, teno, stego, boars (or rabbits or whatever else we got)
juvi carno has a faaaaar better chance at taking down a juvi teno
Utah needs another kill condition. You can literally only pounce thing in open fields because the smallest obstacle means your death but the second your target finds a rock or something to back itself up against your hunts over and you just wait for carnos to find you and wipe your pack
yeah pounce is kinda fodder if you can find a good rock or tree to hug
Or just stand in ankle deep water
Honestly Utah shouldn't be dismounted in water unless its literally submerged imo
The water thing is a bug
It'll be fixed no doubt
And I think the interactions with trees/rocks might change, besides, they removed those damn fern clusters at least :p
honestly until this game is fixed i might just stick to BoB, which feels weird saying considering a few months ago I would shun myself for not being loyal to evrima
I mean an 8 ton stego can throw itself on its back legs to buck a Utah off and it uses NO stamina doing it like cmon
the game relys on floods, fires, tornados and such to keep people on their toes and moving and its so much more effective than the isles diets will ever be.
i mean.....you can always play both
evrima just makes me frustrated and depressed now, so ill pass
fair
its a play dough recreation of a game disguised by good graphics

you playing on the test?
ye
this is general feedback discussion
ha gl
yes I know
what you gonna snitch
some grass is just barely tall enough to hide as baby steg, gl have fun let us know if you survive
im gonna be confused as to why ask this sort of thing in a completely unrelated channel
because they camp at the spawns
Any one here made it to full adult Utah ?
Is teno a little op?
I was a young carno and got decked by a teno smaller then me
Bothe babes. I will say I’ve not played carno before but still even with that
teno rn is the most balanced its ever been
Oh ok I’ll just work on my gameplay then
How come everytime I try to launch the QA branch I INSTANTLY get a fatal error crash
If anything is broken, its carno. Teno has the best balance of any dino in the game imo
QA srvers are 80% carnos steamrolling everything with practically nonexistent resistance and one of the carno players asks of teno is op
Comedy
Lol
I was a baby and new. Don’t have to be ike that. Respect others.
This does make me question
If carno is this strong
My god what is alberto going to be like
Alberto was a better version of sub Rex in legacy
It was decently fast for a Dino it’s size and was a terror to anything that was its size or smaller
I don’t really see it being too much of a problem like carno since it’s stupid ambush won’t be a thing
I hope they give it some sort of attack that grabs smaller prey and shakes it to death
Acro regularly hunting tenonto in-game 
what is "necro post"
In threads its like bumping a really old dead thread but idk what hes talkin about lol
you just reminded me of that one acro documentary where it hunted the tenonto
how do you make groups
Hold down 2 call at the person you want to group with
hold down 2 but in the current QA branch, i believe it can glitch and not work
I was worried "too many necro posts" was personal hate against me ^^'
it would be funny if the devs add some sort of pepper spray to use at hatchling carnivores when mercs come out
Aw hell naw, a small map would just be the final nail in the coffin for herbi players since diets already make it super easy for predators to find them
Carnis dont even have to hunt now, carnos especially
Its a waiting and lynch mobbing simulator for them like thugs stalking some alley outside a market
There’s no way in hell the map is gonna get smaller. I think some people would want the map to expand if anything
I want a bigger map where i wont get fucking dogpiled by the carnis that got pandered to in this update every single time i try to find my diet plants
We only have a part of the map unlocked so far, cant wait for it to expand
So sick of the ez grow carni megapacks, the only new thing in this patch is herbis getting screwed over no surprise at all
Hope they make diets harder for carnis too like pretty much nothing changed for them
@barren zephyr Wouldnt that.. take away from the point of hiding in foliage?
not really, it's just close range body odor mechanic
I also think the range would depend of how big the animal his, for exemple a juvie would almost not be affected, only 1/2 meter or even nothing.
This just helps shitty hunters find people easier, it's hand holding
I can see it being a punishment for people who have been sitting stationary for an extensive period of time, but just being able to walk around sniffing and have the game point you to dinos you cant see on your own is bullshit
If you cant see a fat ass trike or spino or something in the woods its your own problem and you dont need hand holding
Agreed
what going on whith mechanic test serv EU and NA ?
People really still using phase 2 requests as a general feedback channel huh
Also yikes a weather that exclusively benefits carnis and punishes herbis for being in the biome the game forces them in to 
Does the Queue system currently work?
@odd token I think they lowered the stun duration for the pounce with this patch but it still is a little bit too long.
feels like they've increased it with how slow its getting up
do you mean the duration from missing a pounce or like hitting a tree or falling off your victim?
missing a pounce
whiff a pounce near a carno and he can get an absurd amount of bites on you
Idk why people keep asking for Utah buffs its obvious that devs listened that part of the community that had been throwing shit to the playable , mostly crybabies
So dont expect any buffs , they hate Utah, at this point it should be replaced by something else
lol good god, people whining about utah CONSTANTLY. I would rather see people whine about desync and fps drops, not the dino they 'main.' This game has far worse issues than utah being a wet floppy noodle
remove utah, problem solved
remove dinos problem solved we play as plants now
tree simulator 2022
no dinos no problem
Hop on
Perfection
Is the NA QA server down?
Will there ever be a sandbox mode in evrima?
eventually
So why can I not invite people to groups as Hypsi, neither can my buddy I am playing wiht but we had another Hypsi invite us yet we could not join??
you cant join a group if you are already in one, you can leave your current group from the character menu, if that doesn't work it might be a bug
Yea it is really bugged, it keep auto putting us back in solo groups
Why should utah specifically get a hearing buff when sniffing thats so random
@barren zephyr Interesting idea. My one quibble would be that there are situations where you do want to retreat, let's say you get pounced by one utah as carno, you see the rest and go "yep, time to bail", would you be able to do so without then killing yourself, directly or indirectly?
yes I don't know what was in my head at that moment. it is actually nonsense
Small fragile and flight animals in general could benefit from a hearing boost ability honestly if it got added
Seems random for utah in specific
Say the Utah ambushes you, but you have a decent reaction time and buck it off
You could just ignore the effect in trade for a portion of your HP for how long it Pounced you, so if it pounced you for only a short time, you'd lose maybe 8-20% of HP to escape effectively and high tail out of there.
Noted, then it should be fine. Sacrificing a bit of health to get out alive is reasonable after all. Just wanted to make sure the damage wouldn't be too harsh, but that sounds okay.
It would vary on species to species
This is mostly for those that would rather try and run, than fight. But I can see an issue with para and others later on.
But for defensive playables like a Stego, this added change would do little to nothing
So the Pounce would retain it's attrition functionality
Since I imagine their method is to just tank the pounces sort of and just run the hell away.
Yeah, it depends a bit on how a critter is supposed to survive, by fighting or by escaping.
No amount of utahs is going to make a stego or trike or rex run away since they can't in the first place. But a para or maia or allo could, depending on if the pack is large enough to be sufficiently scary.
I cooked this idea in the oven for awhile
But this would help alleviate a lot of the Kos'ing, since it could also be a feature malleable to be added for other playbles, Like a Giga for example
Say for example, A few Carno wanted to steal a kill from a pack of Utahs
I'm not saying the idea is terrible, mind you. Just pointing out what could be potential issues :p
If the Carnos ran straight in rushing everything, getting pounced, sprinting and trying to kill the entire pack. It might find itself wounded and maybe even in a critical state very quickly.
While if the Carno played it more stationery, stood their ground on the kill. Relying on Alt biting, not rushing at every Utah, being patient to counter. They'd have much greater chances at success and effectively thwart the pack's numbers or resolve. While all in a defensive manner for resources
Since the "Pounce burn" would reward defensive play against Utahs
Yeah, I get the idea. Like I said, it's more so for those that want to escape an attack and do so by relying on running the hell away/"tanking" a pounce or two while doing so possibly
A Carno/Teno would tank a Pounce or two in the event it only wants to escape. Given they don't let the Utah pounce on it too long.
It's an interesting idea at the least, not 100% convinced but you seem to have thought it through so I'll consider it!
What ideas would you tweak for you to be 100% convinced?
No idea right now honestly. I'd have to think about it for a bit as well, how I imagine different interactions will go, not just with current roster but the rest of the playables, and so on.
We could speculate, using Carno as a base
For situations where a creature is "caught" or another comes in trying to steal a kill
The best play would to simply stand your ground
Now, the pounce could be used to eventually wear down targets if none of the Utahs go down quick enough
But what playables could simply do, is wait out the temporary "Pounce burn" briefly then feel free to catch a Utah or two, when the target is pounced again, it could revert to defensive play once more until the timer is gone again.
I don't think if there's a pack, they'd let you "wait it out" at all
And the point was that you can't stay around, because said pack is enough to kill you if you do
Do note, that if the timer for the burn is too excessive, it could be shortened. Allowing more of a heightened variable
The defensive parts I'm more fine with, that should work out, and if you try and bully too many utahs, well then that's on you
Its just the escape parts that has me slightly concerned, but yes, you could always modify the timer or damage to make it less harsh but still noticable if you insist on just charging at everything around you
Say for example you'd be pounced and it initiates a burn. While waiting for the short burn to wear off, another Utah pounces you. This wouldn't ramp any dramatic damage as long as you're not sprinting and still playing defensively. This also means another member is now draining stamina it needs to regen. As before, for creatures like Stego(or playing like Stego) it would be hardly of a detriment
So trotting, turning and attacking, alt attacking= Not a concern when a Pounce burns
You could simply continuously trot out of an area, when you're neck deep in Utah, countering them, killing when they miss their pounces. Until enough distance is made then being able to escape a confrontation
Yeah, I'm not worried so much for the defensive fighters. Again, it's only the ones that would try to run that concerns me. But would a second pounce restart the countdown, stack it, or just not count?
Before I answer, what would you feel be the best option out of the mentioned alternatives to a muti pounce?
Hm.. logic would say it should restart it, but I'm not sure that'd be good. Stacking seems even worse, but it not counting is no better. So I guess restarting it would be my choice of those three.
You also need to take into account that missing a pounce puts Utah in a "death" situation
Terrain, water, trees, (basically counters) and it would work as a pseudo Carno charge for "catching" prey. Given the amount of variables and wide margin of error for simply using it
Trotting mid tiers are gonna extend the margin of error more, so it's not like it's gonna be a barrage of Pounces in the majority of scenarios
Restarting it would be the fair alternative
Sprinting mid tiers are gonna be very difficult to land such pounces
Even if one would land, like we said. Nearly all of them are gonna be capable of shrugging off a Pounce or two if they really don't want to engage
Well, water is unlikely to be a counter. The trees might get reworked, and the runners I'm thinking of wouldn't really be in the forest in the first place. Think maia and similar, those are the ones I'm concerned with.
Things that aren't going to, most likely, fight a utah pack, as much as attempt to run them over and get out of there more often than not.
But yeah, a maia should be tanky enough to take a few pounces and "run it off" as it were
So maybe I'm worried for nothing
If a Utah does manage to land a pounce on a larger, yet nimble target. It should act as a bonus to reward ambushing for the Utah landing the tricky pounce. Maia will still be in the size range to handle a two or few Utahs in combat, and the size/speed is still gonna allow it to shrug off those burns to escape if it doesn't want to engage.
Yeah, you're most likely right. And yes, ambushes should be rewarded, so that's all good. More utahs need to properly ambush and not just run up and then start to attack :p
Yeah, that's why missing the pounce is basically a death sentence
Players that miss are slaughtered, given the Hp values of Utahs
It's not as bad anymore I don't think, they sped up the recovery time
So unless you miss right next to the targets attack area, you should be okay, more or less
Still, to land a pounce puts you in close proximity of the target, so you're most likely missing right next to your target
I'm curious to see how this concept would play out, the real kinks would appear in the testing phases
But honestly I feel it's solid enough for it deserve a shot in testing
Yeah, testing it should be fine. But I'm inclined to say they need to make the pounce work properly before we add to it, it's most likely not a needed mechanic right now anyway.
The issues with pounce, yeah
They need to iron out it's use to actually work as a proper attrition tool before they add side uses for it
But I'm all for multi functional abilities to start making a debut
Say the Pachy Headbutt for example
I think it does work decent as an attrition tool, if it worked performance wise :p
But that's the thing right, it's 90% (at least) performance issues with the pounce, and not stats or the mechanic itself
Just so many things that seem to be able to bug and not work
Oh, what would you do with the headbutt?
I agree
Nothing, the Pachy Headbutt already is multi functional
Given that it could fracture, parry, and rock down trees for food
That's what I wanna see more of ideally for most playables
These features create depth
Yeah, that would be interesting and fun
You could give pounce that "climb" part, if utah do end up getting that
Like MHW?
Instead of being knocked down/stunned, you can use it as a start to get up higher, or something possibly
Assuming you pounce the right trees and not ones that can't support you (in which case you should just fail like you do currently)
No idea what you're referring to. But if utahs do get some way to climb or at least scurry a bit up a tree, they could use the pounce for a better "start". Just an idea since you wanted to see more features for a mechanic.
Monster Hunter World
Yes I know what game you meant, but I've never played or watched it :p
So no idea what in the game you are thinking of
Basically you can rodeo monsters, use a grappling hook and hop to change positions
The same could be done to traverse up grass vines or areas
Ah, okay. You know, that could be a thing for larger prey, like a shant.
You have to pounce and then move up, to give space for more utahs to pounce, or something. Most likely something you'd do as a "finisher" when it's weakened and can't buck you all off as easily anymore or some such
I had another idea to add, around the bleed icon. When a "Pounce burn" initiates, there's a circular timer around it
That tells you the exact info for how long the window lasts. so you could better distinguish your actions
That would be useful, but probably not something we'd get. Maybe just change the color of the icon to a more orange one, and then if you open character and hover you get the timer.
Or have a water drain effect in the background of the blood drop icon
It would drain until the effect is over
Anyone else unable to join NA 1? Won't let me join even though it shows 97/100
No you can’t finish diets without having a larger player roster
It’s kinda stupid balancing an ecosystem off of 6 dinosaurs
diets will continue to be updated as new playables come in
what the game needs is night vision and nesting
But I feel like diets should mainly be playables n not AIs
That’s always been the isles stick
Player vs player
it doesn't need skins and venom as much
I just feel like diets have been added too soon
A fresh Utah should be a scavenger
Based purely on the mercy of what caracasses it can find
And thus is why we need a larger roster with more independent dinosaurs
As when you have a dinosaur that is solitary in nature, they won’t carcass camp as they might have a larger thing roll up on it
Nah yea I agree to an extent that ai is good for juvies, however basing adult diets off of ai I think is the wrong route
Idk tbh I can’t say too much as I haven’t had a chance to play the mechanic test but from all the feedback I have seen it sounds like it’s carno groups slapping the shit out of Utah’s. That might change in updates
But I think the game would just feel more alive if we had a larger ecosystem
But yes ai is a good add, but needs to be monitored
Yeah I agree
I have seen a lot of feedback saying that the carno charge is pretty powerful
Yeah I agree with this
Easier to hit than the Utah pounce however
True but even 5 more dinosaurs at this point would really freshen up the gameplay
once all the mechanics are in its gonna be a lot easier to add more dinosaurs
Yea I agree nesting and gore are really important, also I think that elders is important too. But once dinosaur per update feels a bit lack lustre
everyone wants more dinos, but best thing for the game is to get the core mechanics in first
Yea true true
Let’s hope so, I’m just worried that they will try to push out mercs or cannibals before the roster becomes diverse. Like I swear I saw something saying they wanted to push mercs out by the end of the year ? Idk I might be wrong on that tho.
the funny
Why do we need more playables
Yea I think the human structures is sick, and it would awesome to explore them or even use them as nesting landmarks in the future.
This
I thought the devs made it very clear as to why we don’t need more atm
Literally go play legacy then
so there arent 50 carnos steamrolling a whole server
instead, there will be several packs of privileged carnis steamrolling a whole server
Adding more playables isn’t going to fix that issue
yeah i know therell still be people steamrolling the whole server but at least i wont be spawn killed by the same carno pack each time that count for something right lol
So you’re happy to play these 6 dinosaurs for the next year ?
mechanics are more important though elsewise we get playabled fucked over when they are released
Then you’ll just get spawn killed by some other abusive pack Dino then
i know thats what i just said
We need balance, not more shit to add in to the pile
we need playables to be harder to pick not have one or two elevated so high above the others like carno is rn
I’d rather play these 6 then add incomplete dinos that have 0 uniqueness to them
i dont want them throwing trash unfinished dinos out in to the game like they did with hypsi and dryo
and they become fodder or are busted
Stop
Oh yeah then the next dinosaur that’s added completely fucks up the balance of the game, the mechanics that these dinosaurs are equipped can wreck balance so easily
only thing making hypsis viable is that they have no growth time
hypsi has no niche, it just exists
hypsi was lazy and rushed
Add them all then balance them accordingly it’s easy
not even remotely worth it lmao
hypsi is fodder
What are you talking about
Talking more sense than u
as a dinosaur that is too slow to escape from predators once found unless the predators are idiots and who has an ability that doesnt work as it should
Ah yes let me add in a shit more dinos vs proper balancing the current ones right now then slowly adding more in more and balancing them accordingly

want them to throw in a bunch of dinos with no mechanics that will be wiped on by carnos so barely anybody plays them? or so busted that its the only thing you see or hear?
Mega brain strategy
id be salty as fuck if they added one of my fav upcoming dinos as incomplete trash like they did to hypsi
idiot carnos, low brain function play is encouraged in the current build for carnos
Like people with this “more dinosaurs will fix our current problems rn” mentality are

two i could understand but if there were 5 they must have all been having an epilepsy attack and couldnt function their mouse and keyboard
do you not understand that the game is going to have to be balanced every single time a new playable is added

Yes, that’s the point???????
good luck with a utah pack then who can jump wherever you can and ae also good in the woods
more dinos with no mechanics are just boring
You’d rather them shit pile in a bunch of dinos vs them adding one or two dinos and balancing them in properly
Like huh????
and dinos with incomplete or rushed mechanics end up like hypsi whose spit is only useable for trolling
More dinos make ervima go brrrr, wdym?
you can escape idiots or people who arent interested in continuing the track and chase
i agree, they should add rex in update 5
Why stop there? Spino and hypo giga in the next QA branch patch
carni diets are so lenient that the lack of food or nutrients given means nothing, people kill to kill and hypsi is unfinished fodder
that would be stupid, they should add hyper colossus with 2 hour grow time too how could you forget that
add the matriarchs too, i dont care if they dont have the models or are even confirmed ye tjust add store assets
Who needs proper ecosystem balancing when we can just have legacy 2.0 balancing
Utah had it yesterday
add boars and crabs to the playable roster we need more playables right now
Fat pigeons
Omg! That’ll surely kill the carno overpopulation
Spanish carno influenza. If the pack is too big random ones just die
Bonus: the dead bodies are diseased and give mad carno disease if one eats it
to fix the megapack mass killing we should add a remorse debuff to the carnos so that when they kill more than 5 dinos they get a depression debuff and their carno develops a drinking addiction

And if you pack with a depressed carno you get stress
Oh no, not the BOB stress system
Mental health is no joking matter
a stress system? that's genius. if you are in a full group and anyone in that group tries to invite a new member, a current group member will die at random in order to fit a new one
if two groups get near eachother half of them will die so there is no overpacking
Look I've never worked on any sort of balanced PvP survival game but after 5 minutes thought I know better than anyone else, and everyone else is clearly stupid
Add more dinos
I know you're probably joking but with a little polish, that'd actually be kinda genius 
Just imagine running around in a pack and one sneezea
lol
Suddenly everyone scatters
Wait!
Not necessarily a "any random dino just drops" without warning but like. Someone random gets "sick" basically and you have time to split off from the group, or the group can ditch you, to make packs that are too big disperse
That would actually promote social distancing!
Eyyy
Covidino
OK on a more serious note, there's suggestion after suggestion asking for things that are already in the game, some of us stat nerds need to sit down and update one of the wikis
Or better yet get a proper official one
Or add more information in game somehow
hackers on NA1 stego players able to see crocs underwater, at soiuth pond
Ok lol
Wait is that suggestion saying that tenonto should have a harder time getting mountain ash just because something carnis are doing lmao
Hell naw
nah im suggesting that not everyone should be at south east swamp
If mountain ash is less accessible how will that not negatively impact tenonto
Mountain ash isnt a plant that exclusively grows in wetlands, if they increased its range then tenontos could get it from multiple biomes and swamp wouldnt be as much of a hotspot
The solution isnt to make life harder for tenonto
i mean move one of their plants
i can fill a teno diet in 5 minutes tops
Plus whats hard about teno life anyway
other than toxic players its pretty easy to sit in a bush with maxed diet
The 600 carnos with super lenient diets in any area herbis go for food
carnos are only a problem if you let them be tbh
Carnos basically dont even need to know their diet
its either fight or flight and in most cases you just mix em
i mean complain about that in feedback then
cause it is a problem
welcome to de show
I made feedback on diets before it just gets buried honestly
Dont think 80% of feedback is seen
95%
Yeah probably
I know one of the devs was looking at it a day or two ago but like theres so much
its not like they need to see it most of its the same
You know your suggestion actually moves the congregation to a different area right?
The Tenos will simply go to the less accessible area if that's where the mountain ash is
Many of the herbi diet plants have a lot more range than is represented in game, meaning herbis and therefor carnis can be more spread out and have fewer hotspots if that was reflected ingame
"CaRNo Is TOo POWeRfUl" is my favourite quote
i mean at least move one of their plants
like add agave back and its smooth sailing
Yeah the carnis win in the end wither day because all they have to do is sit and wait while the herbis do all the traveling
cause tenos gotta leave
not like anyones playing dryo anyway
Yeah, they might want to fill up all their nutrients
Then Utahs and Carnos will find out those spots and just chill there for Tenos to be there to hotspot
Carnis have changed in to bush sitting simulator due to herbis being made to travel to specific spots that become hotspots
There isnt really a great way to stop hotspots
but i mean you could atleast add more than one swamp thats viable
Making less diet plants exclusive to one biome would be a start
More spread
Mountain ash is just one example
It can be in wetlands sure, but it can also be in any place with moist soil, is is a flexible moderate-moisture plant
Why put it in one biome and make that biome twins lake 2.0
I think diet plants should be everywhere, just on less occasions
Typically you'd find this certain plant in this biome, but it could be found elsewhere for the sake of making foraging less painful
I hope they add dust bathing for feathered dinos when more come in too, wallowing looks stupid on dinos with so many ornamental feathers like hypsi and ovi and theri
And certain plants should honestly give dual nutrients, specifically the rarer ones
Uncommon globally beneficial booster plants that are spread would be nice too definitely
Almost any diet plant can logically be in more than one biome though, i hope they spread them more
Make shit a bit less predictable and repetitive
Yeah, it's hella anchored rn
Herbi life is basically no more interesting, all that was accomplished is making it easy for carnis to find players to hunt with minimal effort
Changed from eat this bush to move back and forth to eat reskin bush
Devs really fumbled the diet systems for Herbi's
Overhyped, and lackluster execution
I had very low hopes to begin with lol
I'm not surprised either
Called this shit a month ago lol
Considering how cool of a concept it was, and it was something that supposedly encouraged foraging, and micro managing for stat boosts. The concept itself brought a bit of hope
It coulda been cool but its just a boring chore the way it was executed
But yeah, how the fuck could anyone who knows how this game works not be able to tell this would happen. It's like a lot of the experience built up was thrown out the window
And also removed players' ability to hide from predators faster than them
Idk it always shocked me how hopeful and optimistic people were for diets
Especially for herbis
Do they need to hire a Herbi consultant now? lol
The opressed herbis minority needs representation lmao
It's pretty clear, and I sort of guessed from the whole biome thing too. That players could eventually predict and then wait out areas with abundant food to prey on juvies
Unless they'd want to grow for 6 hours for a Dryo, they'd pretty much have to go to these biomes
Making Afk growing, the more optimal strategy for survival
Its basically a ball and chain mechanic that does nothing but lower your chances of survival, the cons outweigh the pros for herbis due to predator packs knowing where they will go and being able to prepare ambushes
Happened to me 3 times as Teno, it's hell to grow one
You are now punished for following your diet due to how predictable it is, while also being punished for avoiding the hot spots
Even if I did, a Carno could just charge and fracture me
Leaving me at it's mercy after growing it
Even with a perfect diet stat boost
lol carnos will charge everything in sight while there are 10 dead tenos and 20 dead dryos laying right there from their previous shenanigans
It heavily encourages kfs for carnis because their diets are effortless
I wanna know who the fuck is balance testing and the QA members giving the greenlight
The carno mains making up half+ of the server pop probably
"It's a pack hunter now" will forever be a meme to me for the raptor changes
Did they ever even fix utah inertia
I don't think so
F
Utahs are pretty much farm animals to Carnos
Everybody is a farm animal to carnos now
Sheep being led to the slaughter house
They took the effort to add fracture to carno charge but not fix inertia lmao the devs love carno
It's crazy, pounce I don't think is hardly fixed
And i do too but the game is makin me spiteful to it
It's still negligible in combat
The game makin me hate a cool animal
Pounce has been so wack from the start how have they not figured it out yet
It was op at one point, then useless, then fine but there were tons of bugs that they didnt fix, instead they redid it again
Look, hating on Utah is fair, I get it
But nerfing and neatly removing a challenger has consequences to an ecosystem
It's one of the many causes to the current Carno infestation
I hate utah with a passion but i want it to be balanced at least
Not busted, not fodder, but it seems that almost every isle dino falls in to one of those categories
I swear, many of these Utahs could be repelling and even quelling many of these Carnos squads right now
And as a Teno player, I'd rather be dealing with Utahs, then Charging Carnos
But alas, everything must be God tier or Troodon fodder stats
We need tougher herbivores and more competitive carnivores
Not some god tier hell spawn superpredator that is leagues above everything else in quality
Ironically I predicted this would happen in 3.75 once the Utah and Teno nerfs came in
Yeah it was pretty forseeable its like the calm before the storm
Like oh shit what are they doing
Who is the head of the balance team?
Do they expect players to just play the game like a manual from a factory?
I have no clue on that but they must really like carno and hate everything else except carno and teno
But even teno is bad now
Because carno snaps his legs like chicken bones
Does teno's slam even deal that sort of fracture? Havent been able to see my self yet
Players are smart, they'll exploit and succeed out of any system they're given. They're not all gonna Roleplay, to the "vision" of the game.
They're gonna seek out metas, strats, and use the most effective ways to indulge in there own fun.
Yeah and i cant even blame them
In the end i cant stay mad at the carno megapacks committing mass murder for fun at every herbi plant hotspot, because i would do the same if the dinos i liked playing were that busted
People don't understand that, people love combat
Watering it down for and making gigantic stat divisions doesn't do anyone favors other than dulling interactions
The lack of forethought from whoever is making these balance choices is the true villain in this catastrophe, not the players taking advantage
Who knows, maybe they were drunk when doing all this, but hopefully now they can see how awful the results are and are fixing it
I agree, I don't blame the Utahs in update 2, 4 shotting Stegos
Nor do I blame Utahs solo'ing Stegos when abusing it's laughable defenses
I don't blame that no one plays Hypsi unless they're burning time
Lmao yeah stego was total fodder before i attacked them as dryo too
All of this is designed, with seemingly knee jerk reactions, and little foresight
Maybe some day in the next century the isle will have a truly balanced and clean patch
That only depends on who's leading the project
We had a strong comeback around Update 3
U3 was mostly good aside from some bugs
But holy fuck they fumbled it hard after recent "balance" patches and this terrible diet system which had a cool concept to work off of
The diet faults especially could be seen a mile away too which is crazy
They could've just kept the momentum, they don't always need to reinvent the wheel when stuff starts to seemingly work
Like no one in the team stopped and considered it
That's the crazy part to me
How could no one in the team consider that's what might happen
Some overlooked problems are just too stupid to be stupid, like they did it with some ulterior motive
Maybe they were testing something with it, but if that was the case i wish theyd be more transparent
Like “we are making a change that may cause some problems in order to test something, but we plan on fixing it back later”
Yeah, but somewhere in the testing there's the wrench. I call it
Where someone always introduces a mechanic or twist, something that'd be down voted in general feedback
Something being added that would get demolished if it was a suggestion like magy 
Yeah, that too for sure
The wrench is also the one who keep reinventing the wheel
Like making Mud rare asf
This works, it wasn't busted or anything. It didn't need to outright disappear
Making changes no one is asking for, and if they are. They're in the minority
I guess people might've got upset for losing a chase, once their prey broke sight, mud bathed, then escaped
That change definitely seemed a bit weird to me, especially since pounce was supposed to be getting a buff directly iirc
I still yet to see any dramatic change for pounce
The times I used it, I felt there was little change to the results
Wasn't really a deterrent to any of the Carnos I faced
Also while adding fracture to carno charge they didnt bother fixing the water exploit lol
Like literally, just add the aimed dismount and fix the water exploit instead of making mud puddles harder to find
It just doesn't make sense
Then nobody is truly shafted
Again it's the wrench, we ask for one thing
They decide to chuck the entire thing out and redo it from scratch
When in reality it just needed some tweaks and small additions
Occasionally they visibly use feedback but in 99% of cases its on something specific they asked for feedback on, like the solution to deino bleed
The aimed dismount, and a tiny tiny sliver amount of invincible frames would've fixed everything wrong with pounce
It would be easier to fix a couple things than to redo it entirely wouldn’t it
The devs baffle me lol
Like why add something to a dino who was already thriving rather than fixing problems with other dinos first
Like the water Pounce glitch
Like fixing Stego's still terrible matchup against any smalls
Yeah like the eater exploit, hypsi spit and dryo dodge, stego's ghostbox that can snipe people through buildings and rocks
Or maybe idk, making Hypsi have growth and Dryo feasible playables
Hypsi should be less lame first honestly, once climbing is in ot might be worth it
Its a throwaway dino at its peak rn
Though we shouldn't wait years for a beginning dino to be valuable
Its dumb that they added it so unfinished on its even current mechanics
A speed and agility buff would fucking help
Why is hypsi so low on agility for its size anyway. Its jump is kinda lame and its spit is useless for anything but loltrolling
just wait till it'll get climbing 
Don't know, it's food for hunters that can't catch shit
Yeah thas what i was thinkin i hope its better then
Something shouldnt be playable with its only feature being “you are food”
Like yeah it is, everything is, but it should be fun to play
I guess, knowing anything and everything can change before launch.
Hypsi has no point currently, with basically no other competition/no other smalls.
Who is gonna pick hypsi thinking “wowee i sure cant wait to get eaten by something faster and stronger than me that has basically equal agility and jumping ability”
But nah
Let's buff Carno for some reason....
Lmao yeah… 
So to order it in a shopping list, we have
Unfixed/unfinished:
Pounce on water
Hypsi
Dryo
Stego's poor defense
Phantom range Tail jabs
Carno's phantom bites
Ai..Ai...Ai
Diets making Herbi's hell
Buildings
Docks
Spawns
Nutrient bars are your enemy
Changes:
Carni friendly diets
Paper Utah with Paper attacks
Carno molded world
Buffs to Carno
Herbi "biomes" now being ambush buffets for Carni's
Unending hungry Carno stomaches
jesus you guys went on a rant
Yes.
Man i hate when i start reading something in feedback and it just gets deleted lmao
enyone else having problems joing right now ?
if its queues everyone does
@daring remnant Magy is a small sauropod
it weighs a hella lot
having it outspeed anything is a stretch
it weighs less than tenon pretty sure
doubt they can make it faster than cera without shafting cera tho
still better than just tasting bad
wait tf its that small?
i mean there isnt a point in losing health fighting it for no reason
its either slightly smaller or slightly larger than tenon, very small
idk if were getting 1300 magy or 1800
unironically id call for skunk magy over almost any other magy suggestion i see
some people will still try to kos it
in order for endurance magy to be viable, the endurance niche would need to be out of question for larger preds which would be boring
magy isnt human sized hed honestly be more viable if he was that small lmao
at least he could hide then
i doubt an allo or alberto will be risking anything attacking some magy
yeah, I hope they will just say "it's a waste of time, I'll leave him alone"
that aint happening
I hope
its the isle lol, kfs makes up for like half the kills in this game at least
Just give magy something fun to defend itself with
carnos are mass kfsing while they have dozens of diet appropriate corpses lying around right now in qa
skunk magy 
ew
that would make it a joke dino
it already is
still better than a punching bag
you act liek magy isnt already an absolute meme
make magy spray predators in the face, fucking up their sense of smell and applying a sickness debuff and making them show up as a cloud in scent until they wash it off. then maybe people will think twice before merking the midget sauropod
that is a good idea lad
hypsi crying sounds
atleast hypsi can hide too
screw hypsi he gets to blind people still
dont talk shit about the hypsi
magy would probably also be more effective since its a spray and not a projectile that misse s90% of the time because aiming it while under attack is suicide
bad aim
cry more
nah is a predator actually is paying attention to you then using it is suicide
unless the predator has gnat iq function
hypsi best boi
I think the venomous spray should be like the one of the cane toad (having glands on their neck that release the venom once it get attacked in that point)
hypsi blind is decent in allied herd battles or trolling and thats basically it
You underestimate the mix pack
mix packing isnt a reliable or appropriate way to measure if something is good or not
wdym scum if a utah is chasing me down im baiting it to its death
herding is a better option
but if you kill hypsi for no reason your a moron
herbivores shouldnt need ot herd to be good playables, that is how you eliminate herds alltogether
either
what do you want from poor hypsi and dryo
we already knew that
only dryo is incomplete
imo using randoms as meat shields to divert/escape a threat isnt mix packing unless both parties are working together
hypsi needs climbing
I realized hipsy is too
dryo doesn't have a special ability and hypsi doesn't have climbing
dryo needs a less shitty dodge
the burrowing would be epic to have back
his special is supposed to be his dodge but it is hot garbage
you telling me you don't want Dilo troodon mix packs?
special needs to be advanced tunnels
wdym no
that should go to taco, not dryo
that's the definition of fear and hell
EXACTLY
dryo is fine with simple single chamber burrows
ew gross
dryo work better in an herd
certain herbis mixpacking is fine but i dont wanna see a bunch of stegos and trikes and ankys in a herd together
Your opinion on the scariest possible duo disgusts me
probably will have diet competition
hadrosaurs mixpacking is cool, flight herbivores in general mixpacking is cool, but powerhouses should generally be single-species groupers unless they ar ejust chilling with smalls
we're all talking about mixplacking, hipsy and dryo but no one talk about how they put every good ability into the minmi?
The horror tag for the game
what does minmi do? bury itself in mud and then die?
i want people to see jack shit in the night while hearing dilo calls and lots of juvi dinos
it can do f*cking everything
well to be fair it kinda needs a lot to even be viable
everythings viable
nothing other than giga in legacy is non viable
its not like troodon who has excess with its mimicry that it would already be viable without
minmi would be pretty unviable without his abilities
giga in legacy was busted as fuck
legacy is bad
taco could be good if he gets advanced burrowing and nightvision, velo and oro can become viable too imo
Magy can be viable
yes
skunk magy would be totally viable
just depends how they play their cards
wait tf not again isle
fatal errors are fun
oh yeah, then in legacy they def are trash. giga is god tier in legacy though idk who said it was unviable
giga is viable, A tier
me
giga is a better predator than rex unless the rex has a sub army
nono thats awful
mixpacking between two dinos of similar goals tho
for instance troodon dilo packs
the difference between carni and herbi mixpacking is carnis are all designed to pursue, track and kill, while herbis arent designed to track, are worse at pursuit and mostly geared for defense. this makes carni mixpacking way worse on average
they cover eachothers weaknesses much more offensively than herbis
^^^
Haha your fucked
luckily when i pick hypsi i dont give a shit if i die lol
if you're a dryo not too much since that at the moment the dryo is the second fastest dinosaur
imagine your a freshspawn and hear a another call, only to get baited into a trap of dilos
bary should be a stream dino catching fish, deino should be a river dino and sucho swamp
coastal bary pls
perhaps but i just want him on the coast whether he has shit nightvisio or great nightvision lol
arguably no since dilo and troodon have far more unique gameplay
ive never seen that combo and its pretty nonviable
ive never run in to a bary sucho mix either
most suchos i run in to are pretty chill compared to almost every other carni base
i rarely see suchos break rules on servers that have them, dont see them mix or megapacking and the ones who go in for a long pursuit typically end up being good players
thats just viable for every dino ever tho?
like utah baiting something into a carno attack
or allo baiting to rex
i mean if your failing to kill a bary outside of water your a moron
if you are in the water your basically dead anyway
if he is near water mabye
the utahs would be trash to lose on land
damn those would be some bad utahs
they have jump bleed and health advantage
thats why you dont see it
its not useful
like with diets the utahs are gonna get hunted anyway
Carno diet is bullshit i agree
But it wont really
you assume people do this automatically
also am i allowed to increase brightness with Geforce?
you've also seen sucho bary combo
you've seen it all
wanna see something cool?
give the isle a few seconds
.
why tho
it doesnt 😦
nah just trying to launch the game in different ways to see if it would work
game does not launch ever, isle hates me
my fps is so bad any fixes
same thing goes for mechanic test? (thats where the issue is)
best to just wait for the next patch
wait uninstall the isle and then dont reinstall mechanic test?
but how do I reinstall mechanic test then?
he's not trying to help you, just doing a little trolling
I got the same prob
quick question, drios can also dig in envrima?
nope
not yet
That dude thinks micro could even kill small herrera. The bastard would get bodied by a compy lmfao
Micro is a cool animal
But it being able to survive in this game is ngl, ridiculous
You genuinely wouldn’t be able to survive as micro
just seems like a waste of time and money for such a useless animal
Nah, micro would be unkillable. You would be like a fly
Knee-high to a hypsi
There was talk about having small-Dino servers where all the tiny ones could play inside a big aviary. Seems really neat, even if it's years away
Emphasis on "Micro"
question... did the carno "stomp" sounds get removed or is this a bug?
Also, are fractures present? I got hit by a carno as an adult utah and was hobbling around... couldn't move well but no icons to tell me what was happening?
Silent carnos has been a bug for a while, you can't hear them if they are directly behind you. There's also a bug where all foot noises can disappear for you. No fractures in Evrima, only mechanics test
Sometimes you get bugs that stop you doing stuff but I've never heard of one stopping you moving (unless you got stuck in one of the little holes)
Or against a tree
Yes fractures are present. It happened to me twice as well. You have to open your character screen and it will tell you you have a fracture
Well fractures are in the mechanic test, not yet in evrima. Didn’t know which you were referring to
all mechanic test serv are down ?
Why people want bigger map when players do not even wander most of the places we have in current map? It is really hard to find other players if you are not wandering in the popular areas. Big maps just feel empty. There is not much player interaction in this huge map. This also affects playables such as deino. Is there any good reason to play deino anymore? I mean there is a huge shallow river placed at north and now we have shallow water in south too. They even put pond and if deino tries to go there it would be suicide. If you are lucky you will interact with other players once in several hours(except other deinos that will gank and cannibalize you most probably). There is no point of playing this creature. North East of the map empty most of the time. So I think map should be smaller than this. It should include caves, hidden oasis ponds connected to deep rivers. Not endless plans imo.
@versed zodiac that's a joke right? Bleed doesn't do enough at all and pounce is fucked aswell so idk how those 2 are affecting you at all
To be honest I fuckin hate big maps because you can hardly find people and it takes hours to travel to places. Like V3 in legacy was awful, was always a thenyaw person
Which is why I hope they're going to make a smaller map sometime soon
Right but with diets and what not people will go out and about there might be "popular" spots but eventually you'll have to go get your diet needs and that when carnis will ambush or follow you
agreed, utah main source of damage is laughable
Was trying to bleed off a stego one time and he just walked away and the bleed stopped within like 30 seconds after I bit him
At that point I was like yea there's no point
well stego is not the best example because it got a lot of blood
But if you try to bleed something without pounce, forget it lol
It wasn't full grown and I was full grown
did you manage to pounce it without getting Knock out ?
if thats the case im jealous lmao
(got killed by a juv stego 'cause of that bug)
maybe it was bigger than expected. but i got fucked by bleed. to be fair i was in a bad diet
Nope didn't even pounce cause its useless just bit it a few times
no wonder then, the utah bite is weak asf so its bleed damage is trash too
Is there a bug with the Utah right now? I was playing a full grown teno and a juvi (almost fresh spawn) utah came up to me and started attacking me. No matter how many times I bit, tail slapped, and bucked it off, it literally would not die. It finally killed me for the sole purpose of chasing me down anytime I would run off and bleeding me
Prob Ai
Does AI constantly bark to the point of losing it's voice?
I'm not trying to be rude, that was a genuine question. This didn't act like any AI I've seen, so I wasn't sure if it was a bug that makes the juvi utahs godmodes or if someone was hacking. my pings been at a steady 60ish all day
I took the coastal bary idea from a message I saw in here like yesterday (maybe you typed it) and I really liked the idea, so if you typed it originally congrats because it was a good idea
Ive wanted coastal bary and plateo for a while so it might have been
you know, there's the things called trees with that green stuff called leaves, that can give you a decent protection from the raindrops(as far as i know), if you somehow struggle with finding those, there's cliffs that exist also. So you kinda can do shit about it
don't forget caves
that also, many thanks for reminding
The carnivore specific animal diet needs are one of the reasons i suggested this tbh
@barren zephyr interesting idea! However, this simply wouldnt be viable in the isle. This will literally just be free headshots on the poor protoceratops
His bony face would probably take less damage from other smalls than bis body tho
If he could make single chamber burrows and block them with his face agains velos it could be a viable defense
yeah they can have a smaller damage multiplier for head shots (as all ceratopsians should have) but we can still damage them and stack bleed
like it cant just sit in a hole and be fine
thats not how the isle works
it would just take the velos a few extra mins to land more headshots to kill it
Ceratopsians should have no headshot multiplier
Also their bites would probably hurt like a bitch
also this to a certain degree
they shouldnt be immune to dmg on their heads
it should just take extreme bonecrushing force to really damage one on the head
^that statement goes for all ceratopsians not just proto
Ceratopsians should be one of those things you are heavily encouraged to ambush as opposed to brawling
||tell that to teno||
Aside from taco of course, but he should have advanced burrowing
Yeah hes pretty sad lol
But he could be cool with advanced burrows and porcupine quills
imagine it with an iguana tail whip + quills
lol it could actually make another small regret their decision maybe
imagine youre a sub rex and you accidentally step on a taco. You kill it obviously but the quills get pushed so deep in your foot that it becomes infected and now you have a limp and you die from starvation
Ngl dinos who aren’t keeping up with their diet should be more prone to infections like that. Porcupine quill wounds often get infections irl so it would make sense for taco to be able to inflict that
Same with cerato with all the rotten shit hell be eating, should be able to dish out infections if he eats enough carrion
ngl, id literally grow a taco with the hopes of fucking over some limp tail rex main
Honestly same i doubt there’d be much to lose lol
But thered be a lot of potential satisfaction to gain
not our fault the rex wasnt healthy enough to survive that sort of injury
Feathered carno 
Rex is ok with some peach fuzz but nothing more
What we really need is chonkers rex
id be okay with peach fuzz rex, but they slowly lose it as they get older
Yeah I'm on QA, thanks! I was so confused as I didn't see a mention of fractures coming in any QA patches. Guess I missed it. How long does it last? Or is it just that thing where if you have a fracture you're basically dead because they can just bite you to death? lol
in my experience for leg fractures you just have to sit and heal them
Ahhhh that sucks. Silent carnos are super deadly... :\
I've had my own footstep sound disappear, usually happens when the ambient crickets pick up in volume.
Thanks
If a carno hit you and you're fractured, not much to do but die at that point. I had 3 subs on me (it was me and another utah, both adults) and I was like... "welp, guess I'll die now because they were silent and charging..."
I second I always kill my own. All I did was sit and healed. It lasted some minutes though
once the update is put out in full and we have free grow servers back it'll be easier to test the limits of fractures
Ya, that will be all I'll be doing for the first few days on mine. Testing and documenting, unless the devs are kind enough to give us the details
Head of time I can list several instances in JP and JW where the dinosaurs unpronate their hands to attack humans. Literally proving that pronated hand posture is absolutely fucking pointless.
Hello, can someone explain to me why the servers are no longer displayed for me? I was able to see the server before, but now I cannot see them or they are not displayed to me.
@mellow maple Nicely worded, I 100% agree with your feedback
@mellow maple i also agree but how would pouncing work in game when the utah uses its hands to grab the top of its prey(i mean large prey btw)
make the dinosaurs vibrate while looking at eachother like those old pokemon battles
perfect
that way its just the models and we don't have to worry about proper posture and movement anyway
As long as I get to play charizard I'm OK with this
Does anyone know why when i try to join a server on the testing branch it launches me back to the main menu?
Recent bug seems like. That or there are just so many people hopping in and out, but pretty sure its a bug
@barren zephyr Skill issue
Yes
Will always be an issue
The Isle is client-side hit rego
I haven't heard any news of any sort of lag compensation being added

Thats literally impossible.
Well it is not quote on quote impossible, but if you do client side predicton you need to have a good network programmer iirc.
