They're humans but absolutely juiced.

#

"Perfected Humans"

halcyon elk
#

It probably is considering their likely a step in human perfection

dusky surge
#

do they? They're slower than a stego last I checked

vague helm
#

They run basically at 27 km/h

#

Or well, that's what they WOULD travel irl

dusky surge
#

tbh the speed at which all animals run in The Isle is proof enough this game is going to be terrifying for them lol

vague helm
#

Not so much Troodon because human facetanks it and wins due to the pounce change..Sadly

dusky surge
#

from my testing, carnotaurus is also an utter nightmare

#

herrera too, should the human not know of their presence

vague helm
#

Herrera NOT so much because hitting a moving human as Herrera is extremely difficult imo.

dusky surge
#

literally mostly about unrelated bugs, bugs that have existed for pounce well before the changes, server issues, or people using terrain

#

none of which is new to pounce

halcyon elk
mint star
balmy briar
#

it is what it is

dusky surge
balmy briar
#

the video speaks volumes.

#

more then any of your wall of texts could do

dusky surge
#

the video speaks volumes about stuff we already knew

balmy briar
#

already knew =/= already acknowlegded , it has been defended that the checks are good.

#

and with the desync this game has, its outright impossible

dusky surge
#

basically zero of the issues you presented except rare cases displayed the actual pounce changes being detrimental

the rest is stuff that existed prior and have always been a part of the isle and pounce as a mechanic

#

reverting the changes does nothing to address any of the problems you put forward in that vid, so why revert them?

balmy briar
#

so idk what u guys ARE defending about it... i suppose the people who are the carno or cera that WALLhug , are the ones that are like YEAH GOOD CHANGE! now i can stand at this wall AND they still cant get on with a cheeky little pounce! i applaud it! ,

Same Carno mentality: Asking for weird carno buffs,

How is this camp so split in 2 parts that at one hand, Omni is OP , but on the other hand Carno is underpowered 🤣😂💀💀

balmy briar
#

u do not play raptor

dusky surge
#

im talking about the video

balmy briar
#

imma make that statement rn

dusky surge
#

i also mainly play troodon, omni and herrera lmao

#

those are my big main three favourite animals

balmy briar
#

Alr show me a omni hunting video, just clip urself. Dw i wont expect nappn level of gameplay

#

"i dont feel like it" ?

dusky surge
#

i find that kind of stuff boring personally

balmy briar
#

oh do u now

dusky surge
#

yea

balmy briar
#

sounds likeee dodging 👀

#

because

dusky surge
#

so wait, how does me taking a video of me hunting prove anything anyways?

balmy briar
#

if u actually did, youd be coming to me in DM's and say "you know what, you are right" im a 100% certain

#

challenge accepted?

dusky surge
#

i played omni recently and it was a ton of fun, died to a pachy but i deserved it for playing wrecklessly

slim dragon
#

wtf is this conversation

dusky surge
balmy briar
#

well i keep hearing "its fine" , but not a single raptor i remotely know, says its fine rn

dusky surge
#

im talking about how the video basically barely touches on the actual pounce changes, he's talking about... idk hunting vids?

balmy briar
#

i dont think omni's have ever been as united on something as on the pounce changes being unplayable

#

so u saying, its fine, tells me your either a rare 1%

#

or you dont play the creature at all

cosmic pelican
#

Omnis were united when they thought u6 omni was weak

#

(It was not)

balmy briar
#

thats before my time, the game only became playable around 6.5 , before that it was 10fps at best

#

but your point is made, fair

dusky surge
#

Considering omnis are getting "pounce-to-pinned", I'd rather it stay as it is. Also it's bizarre that you of all people are saying omni is weak

calm ibex
balmy briar
dusky surge
#

also i would like to point out that carno does indeed need a buff, but not a huge one. Just making the charge not shred the stamina pool would be good enough to make it fine, then no more changes

balmy briar
#

tho others call me competent, i suppose that counts

balmy briar
#

i dont understand, because i absolutely shred on a carno

#

what are u unable to do?

dusky surge
# balmy briar what are u unable to do?

nothing really, it's just kind of unfitting given the charge is both

  • encouraged to be used for longer to do more damage and knockdown
  • discouraged from being used for longer due to it shredding your stamina pool sickeningly fast
#

i just think that these two balancing factors makes the ability contradict itself, which is confusing and frankly bad design

cosmic pelican
#

Charge needs such a massive commitment now that I actually never see competen carno players use it

balmy briar
#

yeah, well i will agree with that partly and even got a fix for you, just have it store running momentum, meaning if you are already sprinting u could simply activate it, as a tradeoff make its footsteps a litttttle louder cuz these things can ghost the hell out of you

#

like touch ability key before impact, but u need your momentum

#

not lots of stam, still requires a wind up

dusky surge
balmy briar
#

and that was a big phat mistake

dusky surge
#

i also like the fact that you do need to semi-commit now

balmy briar
#

imo Carno was fine in 6.5 already

dusky surge
#

considering it ALSO has a 20 second cooldown, having it drain less stamina is fine

balmy briar
#

teno was nicest around 6.0 i think, cuz after that we got the tailtip bs

dusky surge
#

6.5 carno was absolutely garbage as an animal

#

like it was REALLY badly designed

balmy briar
#

idk, i was shredding

#

knocking over and beating cera in spiro stats aswell

cosmic pelican
#

6.5carno really was bad, compared to the competition at least

slim dragon
#

Carno actually having acceleration would be a good change

balmy briar
#

what competition? it beat cera

dusky surge
#

the issue with 6.5 carno is it exclusively dealt with ceras and tenos, and SUCKED at hunting anything else

balmy briar
#

well yeah what was the expectation, to murder 6 raptors?

#

your gonna die... raptors are underestimated

cosmic pelican
#

Omni could 1v1 it, cera could run it down, its matchup against a good teno was non existent because of the accel. Ive even seen gallis kill carnos back then lol

balmy briar
#

Good Omni*

#

please do include that the omni in question is on steroids

cosmic pelican
#

Yeah but still proves how garbage it was

slim dragon
#

Omni should be able to 1v1 anything with sufficient skill

balmy briar
#

^

slim dragon
#

Including things that are specifically designed to counter it

balmy briar
#

dark souls rules, if i can dodge you, and i can hit you, then i can beat you.

slim dragon
balmy briar
#

still remains true

cosmic pelican
balmy briar
#

if i dodge you, then you miss, and i take 0 dmg, if i hit you and dont get hit, then you slowly take dmg

#

takes time, takes skill, but its a video game so stop thinking in realism terms with your emp spino concept

slim dragon
#

No one mentioned realism here

balmy briar
#

i was expecting that to come up

cosmic pelican
#

Omni 1v1ing brachiTI_Troll

balmy briar
#

it usually does, its like the day after tomorrow, i know the bs thats coming

slim dragon
#

The chances of omni 1v1ing things like stego, rex or trike should so low, even with great skill, that it should even be taken in consideration

balmy briar
#

eh i die 9/10 times

#

on a stego

#

(1v1 ofc)

#

tho i must also add that rubberbanding had a role in that

slim dragon
#

Technically hypsi can 1v1 a deino right now
But the odds are very low, so on a balance level it's considered unable to do so

balmy briar
#

thats fair to include

dusky surge
balmy briar
#

ehmm we pounced a deino yesterday wich was 60% growth with 4-5 full stamina bars, and man was fine with 50% bleed

cosmic pelican
balmy briar
#

so id love to see the hypsi thing

slim dragon
balmy briar
#

i given up on deinos they are out of our reach entirely

#

and thats how u do it on things that are huge

slim dragon
#

Oh and there's also locked health so I'm not sure deino can outheal it

cosmic pelican
#

The deino will die to dehydration before the hypsiTI_LUL

balmy briar
#

Change bucking to be weight based, the heavier you are, the stronger you buck
Then if a raptor attacks a REX god forbids its possible, but we will try it i promise, and lets say i pounce it but he bucks and im out of stam in like 5 sec + i did like 1% bleed dmg

#

that single change willbalance raptors for a lifetime

#

now, are there gonna be a few souls who will try to fite it with biteforce? sure il be one of the first infact

cosmic pelican
#

Dilo and pachy will get 1shotted by pounce again thoughTI_Derp

balmy briar
#

and if i can dodge it for 30 min , and then hit it , and its like at 50% hp , does that make omni broken?

#

like honestly?

#

close calls for 30 min

#

i somehow, have a angel on my shoulder pull it off

slim dragon
#

Keep bucking as species-dependent so certain animals have better bucking than others depending on their niche

#

Stop balancing everything around weight alone

balmy briar
#

i think you dont understand

#

its ok

dusky surge
balmy briar
#

wait wait wait

balmy briar
#

what is this madness

dusky surge
#

yes that's EXACTLY what he said

cosmic pelican
#

Theres a difference between using an ability and effectively 1shotting things with it

dusky surge
#

he said that you SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED to pounce pachy and dilo

balmy briar
#

he said in a nutshell "welp pachy and dilo just die for free i guess"

cosmic pelican
#

Yeah ofcTI_Troll

balmy briar
#

but its not free at all.

slim dragon
#

Actually he said "Raptor too OP, remove its pounce and set its biteforce and hp to 1"

dusky surge
#

thank goodness

balmy briar
#

honestly 🤭 with the mentality around here, id almost take you serious TI_Troll

#

and thats the true sadness

dusky surge
#

lmao

#

jumping to complete extremes my beloved

cosmic pelican
#

In all seriousness though please dont make bucking weight dependant.
Even though its hard to land a pounce on a dilo or pachy them getting 1shotted still isnt fair.

balmy briar
#

when the pot calls the kettle black xd

balmy briar
#

like in dilos case wayyy less, and fair

#

but pachy breaks 1 thing, and then u break it all, its a bargain sale

dusky surge
balmy briar
#

i'd also say make pouncing reduce movement speed 🙂

cosmic pelican
dusky surge
#

in fact it absolutely neuters pachy's movespeed

cosmic pelican
balmy briar
#

and it should be wide across the board, with the only difference being how much it impacts the other animal

#

based on , guess what

#

weight

cosmic pelican
#

Bite forceTI_Troll

balmy briar
#

i knew u'd troll

cosmic pelican
#

I had to

balmy briar
#

you are forgiven

cosmic pelican
#

🥔❤️

balmy briar
#

no but fr , like when i pounce a carno ( god knows HOW i got on it ) , and it zips to a tree with 50kmph that aint balanced either, i aint getting my value, but i am def losing my stam to a point where i need to rest from a "stamina management" pov.

#

risk: oneshot to alt bite

#

so i am risking alot , omnis are so fragile, no room for error.

#

(and i also consider pachy and dilo fragile, so in comparison to THAT, i think omni is toilet paper)

#

anyway g2g irl, mr.dilo is obvi wrong TI_Troll and have a good day ^.^

slim dragon
#

I disagree

dusky surge
#

thank you

#

someone had to

slim dragon
#

Tho does a carno alt-bite really oneshot omni ?

dusky surge
#

nope

slim dragon
#

That's what I thought

cosmic pelican
cosmic pelican
#

On a headshot

#

But you have to mess up real bad for that to happen

dusky surge
#

doing the math, it'd probably do around 200-250 damage. So yea, over half on headshot

slim dragon
#

tbh omni weight still needs to be reduced

dusky surge
#

i agree but i'm enough of an omni hater as-is

slim dragon
#

shut up omni main

dusky surge
#

the omni community will strike me down

#

frankly i still think "pounce-to-pin" is more than enough

slim dragon
#

The fact galli is lighter than omni is an aberration to me

cosmic pelican
#

Im interested how theyll balance that tbh

dusky surge
slim dragon
#

I wanna see a line-up of omni, dryo, pachy and galli and have people who don't play the game try to guess how much each one of them weighs

dusky surge
#

lmao

hallow hinge
dusky surge
#

literally one of my fave animals

#

up until troodon, it was my go-to

hallow hinge
#

bro i have tried trodon it is much much easier to play

dusky surge
#

????

#

lol

hallow hinge
#

still has problems but it has less bugs, better acc for pounce

dusky surge
#

it has the exact same amount of bugs and pounce accuracy

hallow hinge
#

u sure ?

dusky surge
#

both pounces are done with the same code

hallow hinge
#

bro Does size even metter, even there is diffirence between adult and juvi raptor

dusky surge
#

what does size even have to do with this

hallow hinge
#

once u get bigger ur body hitbox gets too

#

soo even if ur just tiny bit of ur hitbox hit back it count as a back pounce

#

u can think like 2 sticks but one vertical one horizonal.

#

Horizonal one much much likely to hit back more than vertical even if u pounce from same spot. I hope it is enough to make u understand 🙂

vague helm
#

The hit boxes for side pounce either need to be smoothed out or face/rear pounces where it makes sense get added back.

The pounce angels rn are so finicky. If the opponent moves just an inch, you basically die.
Hitting Raptor pounce without impact pounce already took some skill and was dodgeable. Now you spin in a circle or alt spam amd the raptors get smacked the second they don't hit just the right amount of a hitbox.

Like i.e
You can pounce a Teno/Stego from the front, but not from behind
Or you can pounce Carno/Cera from behind but not from the front.

vague helm
#

@amber folio Once again that's being addressed lmao.
Dondi recently spoke about being able to drain nutrients via salt licks, and probably some other methods so we aren't locked to only xyz nutrient due to our hunger

amber folio
#

@vague helm sorry bro, im a casual player, i dont watch live streams and stuff, i just play xD. Im you in some games tho, like star citizen, so i get it, but i really mean no harm haha, just giving feedback where the game tells me where to put it lol

vague helm
hallow hinge
dusky surge
#

"he claims he is a raptor player but he doesn't agree with me"

hallow hinge
hallow hinge
dusky surge
#

???

#

we were talking about troodon somehow being better than raptor and you went on a tangent about "size not mattering"

vague helm
#

Troodon ain't better than raptor at all.
I feel horrible for Troodon I'll be honest

dusky surge
#

yea idk why he said that either

hallow hinge
#

bro as a pounce acc trodon is better

dusky surge
#

it really is not lol

hallow hinge
#

u can try this with ur friend

#

i did and same spot trodon latch but raptor didn't

#

and i actually didn't fail as a trodon 10/8 land

vague helm
hallow hinge
#

for small one yeah

halcyon elk
#

I hope people don't complain on how powerful diablo is gonna be.

hallow hinge
#

it is too hard

halcyon elk
#

Since it's a ceratopsid. They kinda supposed to be that strong

hallow hinge
#

but big ass dinos like steg carno cera i always land

dusky surge
#

a herbivore capable of self-defense is a sin

halcyon elk
halcyon elk
#

@exotic viper ptera does have it I believe. Just don't press anything while doing it.

hollow canyon
#

overall I'd be fine with Omni pouncing from wherever

#

BUT

#

it should get latched precisely where it hit the target

#

not teleport to its side

vague helm
#

Like I said I would prefer for what makes sense.

The side pounce would be great if the latency didn't screw over the hitboxes so badly.

hollow canyon
#

instead of getting a freebie by pouncing right in the face of a Teno/Carno and then avoiding getting mauled to death by being teleported to the side

hollow canyon
#

it obviously affects pouncing the most

vague helm
#

The net code in general needs improvements

hollow canyon
#

but at times I just question whether this game is even playable when it starts getting a seizure and teleports you around

#

and instead of having a dinosaur fight you feel like you're dancing Cha-cha

halcyon elk
#

Imo Omni should have tail pounce for animals that don't got a lot of tail. Like diablo.

vague helm
hollow canyon
#

tailpouncing Stego is a bit more of a meh idea but in general most others should be pouncable from the back I think

#

or another option or perhaps an addition - make pounce faster

balmy briar
#

#balance-feedback message @thin mantle Pouncing has always been drasticly limited by how effective it can be. Trees, Walls, Any object, Gateway has them "everywhere".

vague helm
#

I despise impact pounce for latch.
For pin, sure.
But latch impact pounce is where the idea of "Rapto is just hold rmb" comes from imo

junior harness
#

A different kind of latch point for pouncing the back would be pretty fun for things that aren't stego or anything with a bad zone tail/back. Raptor rodeo time?

hollow canyon
#

so that you travel in the air faster and can recover to run away after doing the kick quicker

vague helm
hollow canyon
#

I don't mind impact pounce

#

not an issue imo

#

although I don't call it that

balmy briar
#

especially if its agile (and thats why i think backcheck has to be taken out, to give us copium on desync, and dev should design around it, cuz its here to stay)

vague helm
#

I do.
It's what makes Raptor so "skilless".

I don't care if a Raptor pounces my ass or face and latches on my side.
I care if he can just be inside of me before I can attack and negate my attack because he just latched on.

If he had to actually fly in the air I would dodge him or snipe him properly, and even of he DOES land the pounce on my ass or face, I will have traded

#

On pin, sure impact pounce idc.

But I hate it on latch.

#

Flying pounces allow for more counterplay.
Plus, it's also way cooler

junior harness
#

Honestly didn't even know impact pounce was a thing until now

balmy briar
#

i also love becoming a airplane

mint rain
#

What playable special ability has more counter play than pounce

balmy briar
#

yeah, imo we dont need impact pounce that much, and at the same time, the minimum distance to pounce should be acceptable

#

since we often are found in close combat

#

think 5 meters ? 7?

vague helm
balmy briar
#

fair

#

thats about 8 meters i think?

vague helm
#

Which is roughly 1.5/2 Raptor lengths

balmy briar
#

or more like 5-8

#

tho the pounce is hella fast 🤔 momentum wise

#

maybe at 80% of animation

#

and then transition to the grapple

#

if u hit it before u stretch all the way

vague helm
#

Nah just have the Raptor need to properly spread his arms

balmy briar
#

i mean it does make sense, i also gotta spread my arms if i wanna grab onto a ledge

#

well.. here is too hope they will touch it to begin with

vague helm
#

Bu6 yeah impact pounce is what made "magnet pounce" seem so busted

balmy briar
#

oh yeah i figured out how to teleport with it quite fast

#

u could like pounce 1 edge of the hitbox, and latch on to the other side, and the prey be like, tf?

#

and yeh that was busted, especially when i pounced the face

#

but backcheck ... rlly if u get pounced from the back, you were simply not paying attention, and forcing us to a flank, might raise that attention instantly , thats my pain

#

then it starts running and moving, and u get claw attacks even on flank or odd angles, and ur like bruh

golden coral
vague helm
#

Yes.
Where the Raptor has to actually be flying and spread its arms out.

Or else it won't latch on.

In return of course, ass and face latching returns or at least to a degree where it makes sense.
Like pouncing a carno/Cera from behind but the face won't let you

golden coral
hollow canyon
daring spindle
#

@exotic viper ptera can still sniff while flying

thin mantle
exotic viper
#

Nope, still cant

daring spindle
#

Ptera’s sniff range is a lot smaller now, but it should still work

exotic viper
#

It has no animation, nor sound

#

Can anyone else please confirm

daring spindle
#

It might have a slight animation but with how head tracking exists while smelling now it’s probably not noticeable

rigid tulip
#

i hopped on the raptor hate train when gateway came out as a former raptor main because i thought it was boring and broken but at this points its kind of a punching bag for the devs and community, and everyone tries to deny it because the more vocal people are always saying raptor is broken

rigid tulip
#

they literally never even made any mistakes besides us just knocking them off via tree. that was the only way any of them died

#

we also got caught with 0 stamina lol. truth is that if theres a sure-fire way to counter any ability on a small predator, its going to get bullied by people who learn the counter. and thats fine. raptor is just pathetic now from all the complaining

#

i could see why people complained, as it was situationally broken. if u were a stego in a field and got seen by 3 raptors you were dead which is kinda insane, but if you were say a cera in the woods, an entire raptor pack is kinda useless

#

its fine for something to be situational, and i agree it was ridiculous, but its been far overcompensated in the opposite direction by this point

hollow canyon
thin mantle
# rigid tulip I disagree. My friend and I as carnos beat a pack of 12 by just camping trees ev...

Well firstly, Omni was strongest in Update 5, you literally had no excuse to lose a 1v1 during that time to anything but deino.

Secondly pounce having situational weaknesses is perfectly fine as you said but I don’t see why the locational modifiers are too limiting. Pounces value is still insanely high, if you and 1 other carno managed to kill 12….thats entirely on them for not knowing how to play their animal, they could have stood in front of you and spammed their bite attack twice each and you’d bleed out in 2 minutes with no deaths, let alone landing a short pounce or two.
I don’t understand the idea of pounce having more counters than most other abilities either, like if you go down the list of combative creature abilities pounce has one of the easiest applications. Dilo venom is honestly the only one that compares as far as ease of use.

#

You genuinely just need a friend to bait an attack and you’ve got a free 3 second pounce, and if they’re camping a tree they’re basically committing to fighting you till you drop or they do

#

Meaning you can land some pretty easy bites to keep bleeding going

#

Omnis bleed application per bite is also very very high, it’s not reliant on pounce for making kills it’s neutral state is better than most creatures

tranquil lark
#

the mistake was trying to pounce a carno near a tree and not luring it in the open

#

and if it would not come for you, then you just grab a boar and find a target that is more suitable to go for

#

either way, youd not die to a carno, cuz if youd gone for them, ud be in a field, and dead

#

if you think about it , plains are omni territory, even tho its suppose to be Carno's. and i dont mind if something is tree camping while im strolling around the place with full freedom

#

(tho dilos are def taking over)

thin mantle
#

There’s also just the concept of failed hunts that many don’t seem to understand or accept

#

It’s fine if an engagement doesn’t end in one of the parties being killed

keen plover
#

@dense gate dilo can definitely be a protein or lipid for Carno. I do think carno needs something large on its lipids diet though since that’s always been lacking

dense gate
#

I think Carno has the smallest diet options, especially that there isnt even AI that covers all nutrients

#

I'd be fine with a goat to fill out // just so it can acheive 50% growth

keen plover
#

Exactly. It’s kind of sad.

dense gate
#

it currently sits that if i dont find a dryo (never even seen one) or a gali i cant grow at that rate

dawn falcon
#

It’s diet should be based on the environment it is hunting in (I think there should be no diet preferences either way, but these are alternatives)

keen plover
#

They also nerfed organs which means you need to kill either a teno or cera to get anything noticeable

dense gate
#

Cera isnt even on carnos list of options

dawn falcon
#

and should have preferences with at least 1 strong creature and 1 prey

So a strong creature in S would be Tenontos, and the “prey” would be omni.

#

as an example

keen plover
#

Iirc it takes like 8 - 9 Omni bodies to fill out a diet slot

#

Which is stupid lol

keen plover
#

Somehow cera flesh gives you nothing but the organs do

dense gate
#

I just dont see why each animal cant basically eat any other animal, Im all for not having a carno have carno in its diet, so theres less cani stuff, but I think all scavanger dinos should have extensive diets, i think the PT should literally be able to eat any meat that isnt rotten, and have it give a diet.

I think raptors, and troodons should be able to get diets from anything , as they too are scavanger hunters, getting diets shouldnt be this specific hunting game... I think anything thats dead should somehow benefit your diet in some way... unless its your own species, thats just my opinion.

dawn falcon
#

AI I’m not even sure is needed considering food drain is going to be longer
So I’d say: S is Tenonto, Cerato , omni.
Dots are stego (younger or scavenging off larger corpses), Pachy and boar.

And finally, lipids would be Diablo, Dilo and deer,

#

And add onto it as you will

#

But this should be a baseline, considering these creatures will dwell in the plains for a good chunk of their time

dense gate
#

again, i think you should be able to reach all three diet with AI on any carnivore...

dawn falcon
#

That leads to handholding gameplay

#

I think you should be able to get maybe 2 nutrients, but that last one needs to be from players.

dense gate
#

every other dino has it tho besides carno lol

dawn falcon
#

Yeah and I’m saying it shouldn’t be a thing

dense gate
#

but it works well, and all of them do it fine

#

so why specifically leave carno out

thin mantle
#

Probably because of its mobility

#

Engagement authority

#

But still

dense gate
#

then let me hunt larger pray, like hera, cera, dilo lmao

keen plover
thin mantle
#

Go for it

dense gate
#

the idea that none of them give diet

thin mantle
dense gate
#

raptors and troodons are the only hunt for S

keen plover
dense gate
#

^ this

#

1 bite of organs to fight something my size like a cera doesnt seem worth it

thin mantle
#

Like for Herrera dilo Omni Troodon it’s been fine

#

Probably because they’re small, but I haven’t noticed much of an impact

keen plover
#

Makes sense. Carno needs more to fill itself

dense gate
#

well cuz they get more bites out of organs lol

thin mantle
#

I think it’s just a case of Carno having really bad nutrition and food value balancing

#

Like

yeah, it just seems the dinos that carno hunts dont seem to fit its size and food needs

keen plover
#

Carno gets like 10 -15% diet per Omni organ

Specifically Carno

keen plover

Which is scuffed

thin mantle
#

Yeah

#

Yeah ideally you should get at a bare minimum half

dense gate
#

yeah, i think we all agree that its just not enough for carno

keen plover

Imo just bump up organ diet values and keep the food value the same

dilo isnt on the list rn but that would be perfect

I’m desperate for dilo to be on carnos list even if I despise the list as a concept

dense gate
#

theyve been patching carno for as long, who knows where this thing will end up'

thin mantle
#

Carno is dilos only legitimate threat in this game

#

Well and Pachy if you min max it’s stam

dense gate
#

ceras could mess with the, too

thin mantle
#

Hmm?

keen plover
#

Lists suck. Just bump up hunger / diet timers. Increase organ diet values and it’s fine

thin mantle
keen plover
#

I hope Carno doesn’t have a crazy long hunger timer. I think an hour is more than enough

thin mantle
#

Which for basically every other playable it’s fine as is

dense gate
#

I think the entire system needs to get thrown out, cuz then you ask - i have to starve myself to correct my diets? the system is flawed top to bottom

thin mantle
#

But for Carno it’s considerably worse and idk why

thin mantle
dense gate
#

right, if we correct the entire system

thin mantle
#

Tho I agree that even requiring emptiness in your food bar to fill up a nutrient is really lame

dense gate
#

then it will work fine, but i think it needs to be redone from the ground up to simulate a more regular eating/digestion phases

thin mantle
#

Because food stat values effect stamina and HP regen for example

#

So there being systems that encourage you not to eat so you can correct a diet is really really bizarre

keen plover
thin mantle
#

Mhm

keen plover
#

Like I could be on 90% diet. Eat a meat chunk and it would begin to fill the other slot

thin mantle
#

I miss overflow

dense gate
#

why even have diet types? just have a number system of a few things like Fat / Protein / whatever else, and let anything you eat effect all systems of intake. eating too much fat slows stam regen, things like that?

keen plover
#

Nah there was 2 versions

#

Both were great

thin mantle
#

I miss 300% overflow as low effort as it was

keen plover
#

One was only on the ST after embargo dropped

thin mantle
#

Because at least I wasn’t microing my food

frail bobcat

do you also remember the time where the only way omni could get lines was ptera, dryo and hypsi

#

Stego was an amazing addition to that slot. So many juvis and they filled you up a lot

keen plover

Took a deer and maxed the slot to 300% TI_Troll

frail bobcat
#

the amount of pteras I had to kill to get that

keen plover
#

Lmao yeah

#

It was impossible the legit way

#

Meat chunk glitch was technically possible for over 2 years

#

It was patched out when gateway dropped

frail bobcat
#

I legit chased off people of the ptera rock to get ptera to land there

keen plover
#

Loool

frail bobcat
#

It was so difficult to get that

#

impossible most of the time

keen plover
#

Yeah which meant you had to cheese it

frail bobcat
#

I was new, so i didnt know that existed

keen plover
#

Ah unfortunate

#

Yeah exploits aren’t usually spoken about in this game. At most people will tell you about water spots. Nothing about the truly broken stuff

scarlet onyx
# dense gate I think the entire system needs to get thrown out, cuz then you ask - i have to ...

Agreed it needs scrapping. It's such an old, outdated system by now. Prioritization doesn't work how it should, filling the diet with one nutrient is a pain in the ass because it flip flops priority on active slots, preferred foods are all over the damn place and make no sense between what youre expected to hunt and expected to scavenge and at what age. Organs are laughable and could be entirely ignored by bigger creatures because of how little diet they give, often less than a chunk's worth of food. Stamina diet is INSANELY preferred among the entire roster, the others don't even come close to useful.

I could actually go on forever about it, the whole thing is the worst mechanic in the game imo.

And iirc the all 3 type of diets will be buffed too.

#

As in the one that only does 50% growth increase

#

Hold on lemme get the list

#

Stream summary of food and diet related things (edited off of another copypaste)

  • Growing takes longer without the 1 of each diet active
  • 1 of each diet is getting buffed like crazy
  • Salt licks will let you drain nutrients
  • Diets go to a slot you already have first
  • Universal increase to hunger times
    • Diets of the same kind will drain one at a time.

I think I saw someone mention the mention of (lol) the possibility of a 3-of-the-same diet draining one hex at a time, but I can't verify that

But anyway. There maybe will be more slots. Heard something about 5 of something.

dusky surge
keen plover
#

What are these suggestions? Genuinely how are you dying to a teno or stego

dusky surge
#

how is this considered enough of a problem that they need a debuff for it

keen plover
#

Like a teno somehow getting 6 kills in a row means you ran into it and got stomped

dusky surge

run away from them and you good

mossy holly
#

Try running away when you both have less stamina and less speed than them

slim dragon
#

What has less speed and less stamina than tenos, apart from ceratos ?
Who get 2x health and knockdown resistance as soon as there is a body nearby, thus basically negating teno's main strength ?

#

Oh I guess deino does

mossy holly
#

And that's just what I was there to witness

#

So yes, I'd say that's somewhat of a problem.

slim dragon
#

not with teno

keen plover
#

Anything else can easily escape

slim dragon
#

Either these guys were really good, either their opponents let themselves die (probably both), either they were cheaters

keen plover
#

and for the cera, well as long as you're not on top of the teno you'll be fine

mossy holly
#

My experience as fg cera against tennos is get kicked once and you're on the ground

solemn pier
#

add the goat and dilo for carno diet

quaint granite
dusky surge
#

still arbitrary, because if 6 dinos die to a teno, that speaks more about the dinos it killed than the teno

quaint granite
#

And you just proved my point? If 6 dinos have been killed within 20 minutes to a Teno, the Teno is obviously just going after everything and anything? I think you forget that 70% of baby dinos are still slower than 80% of grown dinos

frail bobcat
#

Like fresh spawns or subs?

quaint granite
#

Either could work

#

Depends on the dino, I’d say fresh spawn was probably what I was talking about

dusky surge
#

if you're a freshspawn or sub, don't be out in the open. Go find a sanctaury. That's on you, not the teno

frail bobcat
#

Subs are usually faster than Adults, there are a few exceptions

quaint granite
#

But there are some dinos that get slower with age

quaint granite
dusky surge
#

no different to dying to a carno on the way to the sanctuary

quaint granite
#

Except I can kill a Carno as a full grown Deino

dusky surge
#

you can also kill a teno witha full grown deino lol

quaint granite

Yeah but the thing I was talking about isn't exclusively Tenos

You can kill Anything with a deino

They cant chase anything except for crocs on land

dusky surge
#

you see the stego, you move away, it is now incapable of doing things

dusky surge

Cera is forced to scavenge from spawn, which is fine if things didn't body camp

frail bobcat
#

New players gotta learn to stay away from the tail of a stego

#

It’s to the point where if we were talking about legacy, you could grow a Rex to full grown just in the East plains spawning area

mossy holly
#

I doubt that

#

Considering how little a.i gives compared to legacy

frail bobcat
#

Could work, not with good diet. But could work

I don't, considering I’ve grown a Rex before

#

I was in East plains as Herra on NA6 with 20 players in the entire server, it was just me and my friend and a Deino in that pond for awhile, and there was still AI everywhere

#

And considering it’s honestly easier to grow the Omni now that it was to grow the Utah back in legacy

#

Than *

#

Also, I admit @dusky surge that you proved me wrong on the Herbivores, considering I’ve only died to a Pachy in Evrima because I didn't know they could jump, I really don't have anything to complain about

mossy holly
#

My only problem is still the tenno kick actually stunning people, which is a mostly free to use ability.

quaint granite
#

Fair

mossy holly
#

Used to only the tail slam would, which is both slightly easier to dodge but actually knocks you prone, and has a dedent stam footprint

#

But now the kick does, so why use tail slam?

quaint granite
#

My main problem is the stamina system, I actually don't think the stamina system is that bad, but to me, there should be a few different stamina systems and the dinos would be categorized into those stamina systems depending on what kind of creature they are

dusky surge
#

both attacks should stun

dusky surge
#

oh, and tail slam also can stun/knockdown bigger animals than kick can

mossy holly
#

Especially with stuff like raptors and dryos always regaining stamina at all times

#

At a slower rate, but still regenerating

quaint granite
#

How I’d kinda have to say how to do it would be that the categories would be something like “Pack chaser” (which would include Raptors, Dilos, Troodons, Carno stuff like that, and they would have a ton of Stam but would regain it probably double the speed it currently is but nothing crazy)
Then a “Pack hunter” (which would be things like Herrera, Cerato, things like that which are more ambush predators because they can't outmatch most creatures in terms of speed, these creatures would have a large amount of Stam but not as much as chasers, and they would regain it a little faster than chasers) this is getting too long for just an idea, so Ima stop it here, y’all get the idea

dusky surge
#

sounds like a balance/design nightmare

#

also why are dilo/carno on the team of "pack chaser"

#

also, cerato isn't an ambush creature

quaint granite
dusky surge
#

well i wouldn't make a "niche specific stamina system" first of all

quaint granite
#

As far as I see, usually Carnos and Dilos chase their prey

#

In packs

quaint granite
dusky surge
#

raptors, dilos, troodons and carnos both having a ton of stam and regenning it TWO TIMES FASTER is absolutely nuts

quaint granite
dusky surge
#

that's insane

quaint granite
#

Which current is super slow

dusky surge
#

dear God that just makes the animal insanely OP

quaint granite
#

Have you tried to regain stam in the current game?

dusky surge
#

That would make the stam generation faster than spiro

#

Along with the more stam of Gateway

quaint granite
#

Literally everyone hates the Stam regen rate currently

cosmic pelican
#

Pack hunters are already insanely good with the new stamina system, no need to make them Gods

quaint granite
dusky surge
#

you'll see more

cosmic pelican
#

Me neither tbh, there are some outliars like beipi who need help though.

mossy holly
#

The only dino that really needs the stamina is raptor

dusky surge
#

not even

#

raptor is currently benefitting a great deal from the stam system

#

tbh, the one hit the absolute hardest by the new stam system is stego lol

quaint granite
#

Still just an idea, it’s not like I’m part of the balancing team, they would get all the stuff down

mossy holly
dusky surge
junior harness
#

If you're in a coordinated pack as a raptor, stam management isn't too bad from what I've seen. If one of you gets low on stam, you can sit it out while the others pick up your slack. As long as everybody doesn't dump their stam immediately, they can endurance hunt their way to any kill

quaint granite
cosmic pelican
#

Once the target is below 25% stam its already dead pretty much

dusky surge
#

effectively dead

quaint granite
cosmic pelican
#

Cuz thats the alt attack, nornal bite doesnt take stam

mossy holly
cosmic pelican
#

Turn on manual alt attack in settings

dusky surge
#

a normal LMB usually takes 0 stam

quaint granite
#

An alt attack is basically all you can use in an actual fight

cosmic pelican
mossy holly
#

Why would you ever use auto altbite

dusky surge
#

as a deino, not at all lol

quaint granite
#

But either way

mossy holly
#

The only time altbite becomes important for deino is 1v1s with itself on land as you bite slightly faster

quaint granite
#

This isn't about debuffing or buffing any creature

dusky surge
#

kinda is when you want certain creatures to regen 2x faster lol

quaint granite
#

It’s just about having the stamina regen decent for getting around

cosmic pelican
#

Travel just got buffed by an insane amount

quaint granite
cosmic pelican
#

You can trot back stam above 75%

quaint granite
#

I literally don't regain Stam while trotting?

mossy holly
cosmic pelican
dusky surge
#

if your stam isn't above 75%, then you won't regain stam while trotting

junior harness
#

The only thing I'd really say against the current stamina system is how you cannot regen while walking/crouching if you're below 50%, which isn't very great for anybody, especially anybody targeted by a pack

mossy holly
#

I would argue that just standing should give stam from 0

#

But a really small amount

dusky surge
#

issue with that

#

all non-resting regen is the exact same

#

for every single animal

junior harness
#

wait what. why

dusky surge
#

7 minute regen for trotting, walking, standing

@quaint granite if you think realistically, Stegosaurus ungulatus is 8 tonnes. Omniraptor is fictional, so for the sake of the argument let's use Utahraptor ostrommaysi

Utahraptor ostrommaysi was 650 kilograms, as slow as a Polar bear, and probably solitary considering we have zero evidence of pack hunting within large dromeosaurs (closest we can get to is a Deinonychus bone bed around a Tenontosaurus corpse which is more than likely just a bunch of deinons going insane over an already deceased animal)

650kgs and can't pounce VS 8 tonnes geared for nothing but murder

all you have to do to avoid a teno kick while running is to just veer a little away from it to get away from its pathetically small kick hitbox

scarlet onyx

32 slams is a bit ridiculous though, especially compared to stam pachy gets for ram

distant torrent
#

it’s perfect. its got its weaknesses, strengths, and need for skill. its strength is its endurance, which is what it should be since all of its life-saving attacks involve stamina and it can’t exactly flee from most of the carnivore roster

it especially needs its current great combat stam since it can’t exactly regen its stam after a certain point without sitting down in the middle of a fight

the kicks stunning is the problem

# halcyon elk <@694149095836876830> https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=thA9xHBLkX4&t=84s dawg ptera...

my issue with the stam is that if im fishing (which yes theres other food sources but fishing tends to be the main one and what ptera is intended to do) is that i have to land to eat the fish, which give almost no food so its a rinse and repeat and everytime i land i have to take off again which uses a ridculous amount of stam. if they reduced stam drain from takeoff or just better yet didnt make a 5kg hatchling ptera have to eat 20kgs of fish to fill its stomach it would be a lot better

halcyon elk
warm sail
# worldly quarry my issue with the stam is that if im fishing (which yes theres other food source...

One method to save stamina is to fish a few fishes without landing (short story long, make a fish pile next to the river) and when you have enough, land and eat them all. Then repeat. When I'm busy eating my stamina is coming back a bit. The only con of this method is to be careful of deinos and other dinos who can steal your fish pile but it can help reduce the stam drain by constantly having to land to eat one fish at a time !

#

@dusky surge aint no way you're fine with growth times being doubled 💀

dusky surge
#

given that hunger and thirst times are also significantly increased, I am

Also I just played cerato, roamed around, ate whatever I found and grew comfortably so I really don't see the issue. I had more time exploring than AFKing because the game didn't punish me instantly for moving

#

the growth times have to be longer if the hunger times are also longer

odd pebble
#

Sure, carnis could make it work since they need to move around for finding food. But it is still not acceptable due to the fact that you're suuper vulnerable with during most of your growth cycle. So due to that the most optimal strategy will be to camp a bush until you're hungry or thirsty because why roam around when you're fragile as hell and risk losing all your progress.

The herbi gameplay is completely screwed over by this change. Their gameplay loop was already extremely boring due to the migration zones but this just made that unbearable even more

#

I would've been fine with a mild increase, but doubling the growth times is just way too much

halcyon elk

#

So I know they want us doing multi core diets in the horde testing now for better grow times, but once you hit FG is there any reason you shouldn't go back to single core diets? For example as a carnivore heavily dependent on sprinting and stam regen, is there any reason I wouldn't want triple dots anymore over 2 dots and an S or 1 of each?

halcyon elk
#

You could go for all 3 and have a lot of good buffs, and have a general good diet. Or you could specialize your diet to a specific think.

dense gate
#

They are looking into ways to benifit the older dinos quoted here "The diet system has been adjusted to include new “tiers”. We believe that the system was far too lenient on players that would fill their diet slots with just one type of nutrient, and not adequately rewarding players who had two or three nutrients of their preferred diet. Without revealing the raw numbers, having a mixed diet will now yield the best bonuses and possessing all three nutrients will greatly increase growth speed as well as wield the bonuses from other dietary combinations. There have also been additional considerations on how this can be applied to older dinosaurs when the elder and mutation systems arrive." @quasi flare

halcyon elk
dense gate
#

is the % in regards to growth speeds? seant regen, stam?

quasi flare
#

but the draw is growth speed correct? If I want stam regen there's still no better combo than 3 dots right? And in my experience dinos like raptor or carno basically want all the sprint reduction/stam regen they can possibly get. Even at the cost of health regen or NV/scent radius.

halcyon elk
halcyon elk
stark knoll
#

I'm not sure if they're weaker or the same as the 3-of-a-kind diet

quasi flare
#

I guess what I'm getting at is there's personal preference and then there's one diet being so much more optimal for your species that you really only have the illusion of choice. NV/Scent and health regen might be nice in addition to stam regen but it's objectively not as good as going to 25% stam regen over the 15% you get at 2 dots. Now if one of each diet gave 15% of each thing then I might understand why one might go for all 3, but currently it just seems best to optimize your stam with how heavily combat and travel is tied to your ability to manage stam. Maybe I'm overlooking something. I guess I just thought the bonuses would be better for multi cores and I'm not seeing it yet in the horde branch.

halcyon elk
#

Example being: let's say a teno just wiped its diets and wants to have a new build. There's 4 ways it can go.

  1. the balanced diet that gives a good spread of each buff.
  2. The diet specialized for stamina that allows for a teno to deal out more damage from an increase in attacks.
  3. Night vision-scent range to find specific predators.
  4. Healing diet made to make you more tanky and take less damage.

And this isn't even getting into the mixed diet combinations.

#

It's entirely dependent on your playstyle/personal preference.

#

While imo the single diet types and mixed diet types should give more than the all 3 in terms of raw stats in their specialized fields. But if you want a generalized gameplay style all 3 is for you.

#

Combining this with more adjusted growth speeds, as they definitely need tuning, it can strike a good balance between growth and other things

I wouldn't say Ark does anything perfectly tbh

alpine plover
#

far from

#

ark has laggy servers yes, but imagine if every single corpes was fluid always, it would be unplayable

slim dragon
#

What I mean by jank is that in many games that have objects than turn from static to physical when interacted with is that they jitter or get flung everywhere
Multiply that with the lag caused by a 100 players game and trying to grab something will get it thrown into the moon
I'm not saying it isnet feasible, but it probably has underlying issues that made devs not do that (yet)

alpine plover
#

thoes are solid objects thoe, like a jug, it cant move at all when it needs to be fluid, so it dosent know what to do when somebody trys to put it lower than it can go, but in the isle the bodys are ragdolls on top of being fluid the entire model is fluid so i dont think that would even happen in the first place

#

just imagine how many bodys there are, constanly being rendered and just constantly being worked on by the servers

#

that is way more than trying to compute "turn off ragdoll" after 5 seconds of a body being on the floor

#

what i do see happening thoe is t posing corpses

hallow hinge
#

can someone explain me how pacy can broke my leg with tap pounce to my tail ?

dusky surge
#

pachy cant pounce

hallow hinge
#

ram*

#

why u so mad always ?? get some help bro

dusky surge
#

how is that mad lol

#

anyway answer is "lag" lol

hallow hinge
slim dragon
#

pachy can't pounce tho

good job clown 😄

slim dragon

I can't see you seething I'm blind

hallow hinge
#

good point

hallow hinge
dusky surge
#

huh?

#

what are you talking about lol

keen plover
#

Anyways

#

That’s down to latency

hallow hinge
# keen plover What are you playing

i was raptor many people say tap ram dont break bone easyly but every time i play against pacy they just body block and tap ram it always broke my leg

#

thnx for the answer btw

keen plover
#

It doesn’t vs larger stuff but Omni gets one tapped (as in fractured) by it

hallow hinge
#

ahhh it's so annoying like dodging 6 ram and one lag and become paralized :/

hallow hinge
keen plover
#

You need like 2 omnis for a pachy

#

I wouldn’t do it solo since even if they suck, one laggy hit is all they need

hallow hinge
#

yeah 2/3 times i die cuz of this

keen plover
#

Yep. Just avoid the matchup as lame as that sounds

scarlet onyx
#

I always take pachy on slopes even 1v2 when I'm omni lmao. Bout half the time they ram downhill to their death or the ram bugs out on the terrain uphill and they get a really long stun. Pretty abusive tbh

keen plover
#

That works well yeah

#

Why does a 1.8 ton monster need to charge for 5 seconds to knock down a 450 kilos little dino

obtuse ocean
#

That is a good question lol

halcyon elk
livid pendant
livid pendant
#

You have to charge for like 5 seconds before impact to knock it

#

I get a teno or similar weight . But smth that is 4 times smaller than me lol

halcyon elk
dusky surge
#

i think the problem with charge is they have this "hold for the charge for 5 seconds for it to be effective" system but also "we will melt 500 stam from you if you use this ability for 1 second"

slim dragon
#

Eat grass and... Wait

halcyon elk

#

stam cost def needs reduction

quick frigate
#

so like me and my friend were playing pt and we spawned at water access and we both spawned inside like a cave but there is no way out i guess it's like where multiple bit rock formation come together and there is a gap in the center but there is no escape so now i got to sit here until my pt dies from starvation or dehydration to respawn

stark knoll

#

the only situation where this would be acceptable is if Carno kept on getting faster the longer it charges

#

overall - Carno should knock stuff down if it charges them even if it started charging a fraction of a second before reaching them end of story

fossil gazelle
#

Is deino able to one shot Omni?

cosmic pelican
fossil gazelle
cosmic pelican
#

Its 450, been like that for a while now

#

Pachy is 500kg

fossil gazelle
#

Ohh

hallow hinge
#

and i also wonder how 1.800 kg monster can run faster than almost all other dino and have almost same stam regen time ???

dusky surge
hallow hinge
#

if we look that way trodon need to be fastest ??

dusky surge
#

no?

hallow hinge
#

i suggest u search

#

and many raptor type of raptor faster than 55 km/h

dusky surge
#

are any of those raptor types in the game

hallow hinge
#

basically omnis almost same with deinon his speed must be around with him

dusky surge
#

the google popup source not filling me with confidence

tropic horizon
dusky surge
#

troodon isnt a valid genus (and the troodon we have LITERALLY isn't a valid anything)

omni... isn't deinonychus lol

hallow hinge
#

😄 i didnt say same

dusky surge
#

also carno's whole entire gameplay niche is "big, fast, lacks agility"

the way you deal with it is superior agility. An omni with 70km/hr would be ridiculous

hallow hinge
#

ahh now u talking about GAMEPLAY

#

u such a clown bro pls dont talk with me

dusky surge
#

as an additional point

#

i specifically phrased it as an additional point

#

carno is still biologically built to be fast

hallow hinge
#

there diffirence between fast for short distance and long

#

for example cheetah

dusky surge
#

what

#

what does total distance covered have to do with immediate speed

tropic horizon
hallow hinge
eternal oak
#

also you guys arguing or having an... aggressive discussion..

hallow hinge
#

i will give an example for his lil brain. for example a wolf can be slower than cheetah but he can go further distences without resting

dusky surge
hallow hinge
#

am just telling truth 😄

#

ahahaha

#

this guy lives in a cave or something ?

dusky surge
#

top speed isn't calculated by how much you rest lol

eternal oak
dusky surge
#

my car is faster because its more fuel efficient

eternal oak
tropic horizon
#

I honestly don’t even know what’s going on anymore-

eternal oak
#

i just got here...

hallow hinge
#

bro he is have some issues dont mind him

eternal oak
#

who?

hallow hinge
#

mr acro

#

i saw many people ignore him

dusky surge
#

you're doing a real bad job at it

tropic horizon
eternal oak
hallow hinge
#

he just try to make people angry

#

he is good at it not gonna blame

dusky surge
#

im really not lol

eternal oak
#

the hell did bro say?

tropic horizon
dusky surge
#

i think hes confused speed with velocity

hallow hinge
#

ahahaha whenever i ask something he just pop up and talking with no sense

eternal oak
#

the hell are you even arguing about anyways...

dusky surge
#

i actually dont know

#

like something to do with speed?

eternal oak
#

something to do with carno or something... which is where speed came in...

dusky surge
#

i think he thinks carno is too fast or everything else is too slow

eternal oak
#

ah...

hallow hinge
#

i said its no make sense

dusky surge
#

yea that

eternal oak
hallow hinge
#

imo carno need to drain more stam while running

#

bigger muscles need more enrgy and it gets harder to feed

tropic horizon
# hallow hinge i said its no make sense

I mean in terms of real world rules yeah it probably doesn’t but this is a videogame with tons of things that don’t abide by real world rules such as: Beipi being a duck pretty much, just cerato entirely, and troodon, and dilo, among many other things

dusky surge
#

it drains stam faster than basically everything but cera, stego and deino, so you already got it

dusky surge
#

but it still does

hallow hinge
dusky surge
#

also carno being a short sprint burster is really, really lame for it

eternal oak
#

lots of things are off about carno... stam is the least of them...

dusky surge
tropic horizon
#

Everything else has better stam than it, so everything that needs to run from it CAN run from it so I don’t really see the problem

eternal oak
#

it is mostly the charge that is well... messed up...

dusky surge
#

the charge is really, really bad

hallow hinge
#

but in game if carno dont wanna die u cannot kill

#

i want to change that

dusky surge
#

thats the case for most creatures

vale brook
#

what the hell is feedback turning into

what is this

#

80 KM/H??? FOR TROODON???

dusky surge
tropic horizon
#

The charge on live is almost as inconsistent as raptor’s pounce it either works as intended burning all of your stamina in the process or you instantly knock someone over because of bugs

hallow hinge
#

ahahah he asked some biological fact so i send this

#

ofc it would ruin gameplay

vale brook
#

none of that is biological fact

dusky surge
#

i didnt ask for biological fact, i just gave you a reason as to why an 1800kg monster can run fast

tropic horizon
vale brook
#

its the first result on google when you search "fastest dinosaur ever"

tropic horizon
#

Plus troodon isn’t even a real animal

dusky surge
#

because carno is physically built for running fast

vale brook
#

also why are we discussing biological fact for a video game that has never prided itself on realism?

hallow hinge
#

u guys have any document for there FACTS

dusky surge
#

the main thing we know about carno is that it ran really fast in a straight lines

hallow hinge
#

i would love to see if u have

viral tulip
hallow hinge
#

almost same with others

tropic horizon
#

And compared to other dino’s it’s stam pool is really small

dusky surge
#

i made an off-comment i didnt realise this was going to devolve into a realism argument

tropic horizon
#

Which we should never go to because this game ISNT REALISTIC

vale brook
#

i just came in seeing insanity

hallow hinge
dusky surge
#

carno isn't really that OP tho

#

if anything it's in a rather lackluster spot

#

its charge is just godawful to use

tropic horizon
tropic horizon
vale brook
#

carno needs to charge off a cliff

hallow hinge
#

actually its op if compare other dinos

dusky surge
#

not really no lol

#

i honestly rarely die to carnos

vale brook
dusky surge
#

they're really easy to avoid

hallow hinge
#

how many times u can kill 😄

dusky surge
tropic horizon
dusky surge
#

thats more of an issue with cerato tho

hallow hinge
tropic horizon
vale brook
hallow hinge
#

but carno can escape from other dinos

#

this is not balanced

dusky surge
vale brook
#

not that im saying you should take community play style into consideration

dusky surge
#

its literally dog

tropic horizon
#

In 6.5 when it had acceleration if it messed up charging at you the cera could punish the carno for missing, now it just zooms away with instant acceleration

hallow hinge
#

yeahh u understand me

#

he fast stong and tank

vale brook
#

cera needs to be more corpse bully-ish

i feel like they were too scared to lean really far into it with release and it left cerato in this middle ground of kinda niche but also not niche

hallow hinge
#

charge may be sucks but still too much

halcyon elk
tropic horizon
#

Also the charge even without the stun does ridiculous damage to cera, like 300-400 ish to the head, which is also insanely easy because cerato has the largest head of any animal in the game

vale brook
#

meh, whatever makes him able to absolutely stand his ground and steal more corpses

halcyon elk
#

Original resist on bodies + the stun resist would make cera very strong.

tropic horizon
#

But would also make it be able to STAND ITS GROUND for once because that is simply not possible in the current branch

hallow hinge
#

imo if carno drain much stamina while running would be good change

vale brook
#

we alr know cera is getting a buff soon

hopefully its good

eternal oak
#

could also fix carno charge...

dusky surge
tropic horizon
eternal oak
hallow hinge
halcyon elk
#

Carno being our ambush/pursuit predator that uses its charge as a utility.

dusky surge
#

thats terrible

halcyon elk
dusky surge
#

diet reliance sucks

hallow hinge
#

carno can remain pretty much tho mate

#

not as much as galli but

tropic horizon
#

Getting rid of instant acceleration would be nice but I doubt they’ll ever do that

hallow hinge
eternal oak
#

personally i think ambush carno but i just want him to be something instead of everything, and nothing

halcyon elk
dusky surge
halcyon elk

Like if you get juked your gonna have to wait a moment to stop and full turn.

dusky surge
#

like literally ambush carno is just allo for people who wanna be different

hallow hinge

ambush carno is pretty good if u play decent

eternal oak
