isle-discussion

[hasty island]

are there any servers where you can play as a human

[stone tiger]

Sure

[indigo cave]

Therosinosaurus

[lost musk]

O OF YESTERDAY
AND TODAY

[analog turret]

It’s just like 2 big models awkwardly shuffling and pirouetting into eachother

[real orchid]

there is no confirmed dates for any upcoming playables

[analog turret]

Doesn’t feel like there’s any meatiness to big animals fighting

[stone tiger]

No ETAs

[ripe whale]

It's fun walking around the map not knowing where i am

[real orchid]

currently no

[amber raft]

Fr the only good thing about combat in TI is tail riding like on PoT is rarely an option but I rather watch a PoT crocodile combat than two deinos fighting in TI

[hasty island]

dang

[amber raft]

Fr

[analog turret]

PoT’s pace of combat is better than the isles, but that could partly be because it’s ONLY dinosaurs
Isle dinos will have to face off against people with guns later, so that might be why it’s so zippy

Also doesn’t help that the isle is pretty unstable still, so the zippy combat tends to feel bad with all the desync or glitching

[severe wadi]

yikes 3 rexes going round killing everyone in sight

[still umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/bear-jumpscare-lag-ping-internet-gif-8943988503433212291

[viral shale]

Pot croc combat is basically the same thing as TI lol

[severe wadi]

uh... how do i fix this?

[viral shale]

Server is having a moment, just wait a little

[analog turret]

Play tyrannosaurus

[severe wadi]

ah alr thanks

[amber raft]

The main goal of the game is still hunting when you are playing a carni and watching an allo litteraly jump on the back of a triceratops doesn’t make sense at all, allo is too heavy to jump and would rather grab the prey

[severe wadi]

🤮

[stone tiger]

Animal in duress?

[analog turret]

That doesn’t really bother me, it’s more that most of the time yiu just see the allo run into you and it’s suddenly attached

[indigo cave]

https://tenor.com/view/confused-white-persian-guardian-why-gif-10312546

[analog turret]

Same with Omni or Troodon’s

[frail bough]

hey how to get prime dino? i heard you need to get 5 out of 10 requirements and i wanna check if this knowledge is true alr soo i cant eat my own species as a carnivore never be infertile go to sanctuary get perfect diet and walk into at least 2 migrations and for herbi i need to do mz and 4 patrol zones is that all true?

[amber raft]

No, TI croc combat is just biting each other heads and almost not moving, croc combat in PoT lets you dash away, use you O2 bite to try to drown your enemy and drain its stamina, some crocs run a land build and will rather flee on land etc

[neon elk]

hi

[stone tiger]

Could you please post other dinosaurs like Falcons?

[stone tiger]

Aye Do you like Falcons?

[analog turret]

Falcons are cool

One of them punches stuff

[viral shale]

You know you can also dash away in TI as well? It's just restricted to water use.
The other examples are just build variations. It still all boils down to biting each other in the face. Sarco v sarco is boring as hell and i've experienced enough of it

[lost musk]

tylo vs tylo is one of the rare matchups in pot that are ACTUALLY really interesting and engaging

[still umbra]

@lost musk

[analog turret]

I’d enjoy isle combat more if it wasn’t desyncing all the time

[little abyss]

is there Dryo ai in the hordetest?

[viral shale]

Probably because it has 3 different ways to deal damage instead of sarco just having its bite

[analog turret]

I remember back in like spiro whenever the game was pretty stable and it felt good

[neon elk]

yay deinosaur i think

[still umbra]

new species of rex

[analog turret]

Dinosaurus

[neon elk]

oh

[amber raft]

They kinda ruined it by removing crush bite

[real orchid]

Yup, they're silly little guys

[analog turret]

Aww ye Dino ai

[little abyss]

oh cool, is it in a specific location, like how it is for Galli ai?

[stone tiger]

What reptiles would work as edible Dino AI?

[real orchid]

I saw some at north lake and swamps, so I doubt they have specific locations

[stone tiger]

Dryo?
Hypsi?
Galli?
Diablo?
Tenonto?
Carno?

[little abyss]

ah cool, thanks for sharing

[torn jay]

i mean in POT a damn megalania can probably survive 10 rex bites

the entire motto of path is “if u suck u still get to win”

that’s why that game is bad in hindsight

[vital onyx]

megalania dis

[viral shale]

We had teno and carno AI once

[vital onyx]

nevermind, pot megalania

[severe wadi]

at least pot pvp isn't as bad as beasts of bermudas..

[real orchid]

How to summon Owl: megalania

[vital onyx]

Ehh

[viral shale]

That game is long dead tbh

[vital onyx]

BOB combat is wacky and wierd as hell

[severe wadi]

It's just tail riding

[analog turret]

Yeah cause it’s just meant to be a fun dinosaur game and not a hardcore survival game

[vital onyx]

path of titan’s combat is whoever can cheese the engine or system the most

[analog turret]

It’s got a different design philosophy to balance etc

[vital onyx]

like flick biting which is just ugly

[viral shale]

Its balancing is a nightmare with their talent trees

[torn jay]

“we created this new way to prevent tailride combat”

and it’s just defensive stance and tail whipping on every dino

like cmon bruh it’s a 10year old’s vision of a survival game

[analog turret]

And mind, people on here moan all the time about allosaurus pining their fraction of the weight animal

[severe wadi]

real.. bob is whoever can abuse hitboxes the most

[stone tiger]

The Isle Megalania could survive at least 1 Trex bites as our Lizard would be 2 metric tons possibly more

[vital onyx]

the isle megalania could be anywhere from 200kg to 2 tons

personally I expect it around 1 ton

[severe wadi]

i would prefer a smaller megalania that can also climb as an adult but i doubt thatll happen

[torn jay]

heck no

[vital onyx]

let it vault rocks and small boulders

[torn jay]

rock camping has got to go, i’m tired of that

[severe wadi]

yeah

[analog turret]

That’s what happens when you give animals different builds etc, the isle also has terrible balance with animals without talent trees and stuff

[stone tiger]

4,280 lbs (1.9 tons) is the 2004 Upper estimate for an adult Megalania

[torn jay]

isle doesn’t have terrible balance, just stop fighting fights u won’t win

[analog turret]

Rex should one shot every animals unless it’s the animal I’m playing when I died to one

[real orchid]

Same really, I don't see it being heavier than that

[stone tiger]

I expect it to ne 1.9 tons

[torn jay]

[stone tiger]

And the Elder Megalania to be over 2 metric tons

[vital onyx]

@gentle sundial oooooh daltonius! megalania fragmentary estimates if you wouldn’t mind!

[torn jay]

We play a survival game, based on real life nature where only 10% of animals survive

and we get mad when 90% of us die

[severe wadi]

love when a sub rex can outrun my kentro without ambush and pin it to insta win

[analog turret]

Lmao this is a very funny reply

[severe wadi]

real life is more balanced than this game bro

[vital onyx]

should preface this by saying real life estimates have no factor in the size/health of playables ingame

[viral shale]

Bad balancing is present in every dinosaur game but bob's moreso
No other game has to juggle 20+ unique talents for every dinosaur
Pot comes close in that sense though

[analog turret]

When the pining animals runs into you and you die 🙁

[real orchid]

[analog turret]

I crave windup and recovery animations for pins and grapples

[severe wadi]

i dont think thats accurate...

[pliant birch]

I mean... real life doesnt have to deal with creatures millions of years apart from eachother

[boreal dirge]

700kg adult megalania 1000kg prime elder megalania

[vital onyx]

nowhere near accurate

[stone tiger]

Its a theoretical size

[analog turret]

Bob combat is just dreadful I don’t even bother to think about it

[vital onyx]

that’s an over exaggeration

[severe wadi]

true but real life also doesnt have 12 ton carnivores that can run 40 kilometers

[severe wadi]

yooo thats my mom

[torn jay]

real life’s balance is buried in numbers of apexes via a Food Chain

the balance issue with isle is there’s more 3-13ton animals alive then there are 0-2tons

we got a trillion damn small tiers on the planet in real life and probably 1% of the planet is apexes, population control is how u balance the isle tbh

[severe wadi]

https://tenor.com/view/big-al-allosaurus-walking-with-dinosaurs-big-al-uncovered-soccer-gif-7022595134352320284

[stone tiger]

I agree these are more accurate estimates

[vital onyx]

varanus priscus remains are highly inconsistent and fragmentary, with like 4 size estimates and the largest one being a sketchy size-up-comparison

[jagged pulsar]

Oh. Was there a wipe? My pteranodon on hordetesting is gone

[sudden skiff]

i think Deepie did a great job on bringing up a Solution For Pinslop in The Isle

[severe wadi]

i personally do not like it whatsoever

[misty pivot]

owlenstein what are your thoughts and onions on the 40 tonne parasaur footprint estimate

[vital onyx]

us2 seemed to have been wiped yea

[stone tiger]

A 1 ton Megalania would be able to climb?

[halcyon dove]

If this game was based on real life nature everything on the island would of starved to death

It has a massive carnivore overpopulation along with sport killing. Etc etc

Tree herra n all that. Ain’t based on real life. Dino’s, humans, strains. haha funny Dino game

[severe wadi]

it kinda ruins allo from being an ambush predator, plus its not even like pinslop is hard to avoid in the first place, theres way better ways to do it

[analog turret]

Real life does not translate into a good or fun game

[severe wadi]

for that tracking system to work allo would need way better NV and smelling

[torn jay]

Hordetest right now aside from kent being fodder to allo feels fairly balanced

simply because there aren’t 50 Prime Elder Rexes & 20 Prime Elder Allo’s

that’s how u balance the game, u can’t simulate nature and leave out the most balanced part of our planet: FOOD CHAIN

[sudden skiff]

rly? tell me :0

[vital onyx]

I think it would be insanely funny if para goes from being 6 tons all them years ago to suddenly being 40 bloody tons out of nowhere

blows Shant out of the water if true lmao

[jagged pulsar]

Darn

Rip my fresh prime elder bird. Oh well, its easy enough to get

[real orchid]

Nature doesn't know what "overpowered" and "underpowered" even means 🙂‍↕️

[torn jay]

i’m speaking purely balance fix, not hyper realism

[severe wadi]

n.1. dont get ambushed, it would be better to make a minigame that results in a pin rather than an animal having a 2nd chance to escape. let me pull up my idea rq

[analog turret]

Imagine how loud it was

[viral shale]

The what

[analog turret]

“Umm devs please nerf the jaguar, I as a sloth have no way to counter this”

[torn jay]

“pinslop is unbalanced”

yea when 80% of the server is 3 & 12 ton pinners what do u expect, its an upside down food chain, u cant balance it without balancing the number scale

[severe wadi]

apon ambushing and pouncing at a teno, you engage in a grapple 'tug of war' where the allo grapples onto its prey using its front limbs and jaws, the allosaurus must hold left click to push you to the ground with its jaws which will cost the allosaurus a lot of stamina. in response you have to hold left click to brace while he does it. if the allo holds right click to push down with its claws you have to hold right click, and possibly also an option to use both claws and jaws. the allo will try and be unpredictable with it to get you pinned to the ground so it can initiate a 'maul' (a faster kill version of pinning) however if the allosaurus goes below 40% stamina during this, the teno can escape. (the lower weight and stamina a target the harder it is to for it brace) this is how it will also work for group pinnings, however its much harder the larger the target.

not too indepth but i think it keeps allo being an ambush predator while actually giving prey a chance to survive after being grabbed

[halcyon dove]

Kinda does. Overpowered would be translated to invasive species.

[severe wadi]

but tbh if you're getting ambushed in the first place thats on you. the real problem with allo is its insane bite speed and bleed

[real orchid]

But that is not nature's doing

[torn jay]

kinda 😂😂😂

[halcyon dove]

It is, we are a part of nature.

[real orchid]

[normal flume]

If that's true then guns are part of nature because we made em

[severe wadi]

because unviable things go extinct, its why almost nobody plays stuff like dibble anymore

[analog turret]

Oh god not this again

[torn jay]

we got a nature denier in the building somebody go grab the tin foil hat

[halcyon dove]

Indeed, they are.

[real orchid]

I am not going into this discussion again

[severe wadi]

what discussion

[torn jay]

mf when Animals evolve to have weapons literally grow out of their body that’s nature

we evolved to build weapons ourself

that’s all nature 😂😂😂

[stone tiger]

@severe wadi What do you play as right now?

[severe wadi]

kentro

[silk iron]

an allo just pounced through a tree and pinned me

[normal flume]

Your taking me to literal, what I'm saying is invasive species are not natural because they weren't naturally introduced

[halcyon dove]

Aye, at least it wasn’t a rex I guess

[real orchid]

Not with you, but someone started saying "no one plays X thing anymore" yesterday

[midnight kernel]

Hot take: despite how slow it is kentro is absolutely wildly powerful in the right hands. Im very curious to see what people end up doing with it

[severe wadi]

oh alr, i was js giving an example of the isle and natures similarities

[severe wadi]

its very good, just awful against allo and rex lol

[silk iron]

2 sub allos pinning a big sub teno man

[jagged pulsar]

Man, the double tap ctrl to do the dive for ptera is kinda finnicky, miss when it was just looking straight down.

[torn jay]

what happens if the invasive species start invading each other

[midnight kernel]

Saw one kentro kill 3 allos the other day. Also trees knock you off again so theres that

[normal flume]

Probably something like avengers civil war

[radiant niche]

wait, there is dryo AI?

[real orchid]

Rex would be less of an issue if it took more skill to grow, allo is...allo...

[severe wadi]

probably js bad allos @torn jay can you send the clip of the allo face tanking a kentro

[halcyon dove]

I do think they have a point. Some things have definitely declined in population, like dibble, due to the state of certain carnivores and many other factors.

I barely see other dibbles anymore honestly

[severe wadi]

indeed.

[midnight kernel]

Saw that vid too. Allo honest to god just needs its bite speed nuked and more animations added to punish pounce spam

[torn jay]

mind u, allo could’ve just dished out 2 claws and called it a day, even gave bro a chance to win

[severe wadi]

yeah

[severe wadi]

i agree

[real orchid]

Yup and I am not really disagreeing with there being issues with some carnivores being way too dominant right now

[severe wadi]

as an allo lover its very dissapointing to play a basically instant win playable

[torn jay]

agreed.

[analog turret]

Carnivores are cool and they are more fun throughout the entirety of their growth

[midnight kernel]

Yeah :/ i dont think anyone expected this after all the hype

[severe wadi]

when allo released i was hoping for some sick prowling around bushes and ambushing, and some nerve racking apex hunting. but not really any of that has happened

its just claw swipe and spam lmb to win...

[torn jay]

WE NEED ALLO BIG GAME HUNTER BUFFS NOT MID TIER BULLY BUFFS

[halcyon dove]

#general-feedback message

allo being able to do this after taking massive dmg was just disappointing honestly.

I just emtombed after and hopped on Omni lol

[midnight kernel]

I expect theri to be crazy after what kissen said but honestly if we can get teno levels of balance in all playables ill be happy (it can outrun anything that kills it straight up, and can fight anything it cant directly escape)

[analog turret]

Telling you, more sorts of CC would do wonders
Hit an allo in the face with a tail swipe? Wam it’s been knocked sideways

[torn jay]

it doesn’t work against prime allo

[normal flume]

Tried troodon last night, pretty fun

Until I ran right of a cliff

[halcyon dove]

Allos stun timer is insanely fast, wouldn’t matter much.

[oblique stone]

Luckily we still have Omni Players to this day.

[severe wadi]

voted on ur thing

[torn jay]

oh yea, hits the Dougie for half a second and back to the railgun

[analog turret]

Not just a stun in this case, more that it forces the allo to face the other way

[midnight kernel]

Kentro with that defense stance is a cool take on a preview for anky tho ngl

[analog turret]

But yes also that’s just a number thing

[halcyon dove]

Ah, yeah that would help but idk if it would fix the issue

[sonic veldt]

is there a place i can read about upcoming changes/ hoardtest logs?

[brave herald]

mewgenics ahhh cat

[analog turret]

My mindset on this is, any animal with a jointed/space making attack style should be frustrating to approach

[severe wadi]

a lot of carnivores in general need to be punished more for making stupid mistakes. if you've ever seen a big cat hunt something and mess up you know it usually results in a very large injury

[analog turret]

If it can see you anyway

[real orchid]

They don't give us roadmaps

[halcyon dove]

I don’t think upvotes matter to the dondinator9000, I just hope he sees it and thinks it’s a problem.

Hopefully kentros reflect will make allo shred itself once it’s more impactful and consistent

[severe wadi]

saw a warthog gore a lions leg, despite warthogs being smaller the lion could no longer hunt for a long time

[analog turret]

Any situation where it;s just facetanking eachother to death is not only lame, but fails to capture the big dinosaur combat fantasy

[sonic veldt]

no changelogs? i dont rly mean a complete roadmap

[viral shale]

I hope kentro's defense stance isn't finished though
It feels underwhelming rn

[real orchid]

Not yet atleast if they ever planning on giving us anything

[severe wadi]

yea he prolly doesnt care but just incase he does ill do it anyway lol. kentro should be one of those playables thats extremely risky to hunt imo

[torn jay]

damn that one was even worse

literally hit him a good 6 times and made him run doubling all that bleed

and he still won the facetank after 2 minutes of running while bleeding

[analog turret]

Also make kentro immune to grabs while in defense stance, if it’s;s facing the right way ofcourse

[halcyon dove]

Kentro should be able to do this if its reflect gets fixed… hopefully

[analog turret]

Cause… grabbing onto a load of readied spikes would hurt

[halcyon dove]

While taking hits from both of us, and I never hit the other kentro. Was insane.

[severe wadi]

rex players slamming their 12 ton body directly onto 3 foot spikes in the squishy part of their mouth

[analog turret]

I’d actually love the same for stego too, it hitting a Rex in the face should forceably turn the Rex away from stego
Ofcourse making numbers adjustments so it;s not too op

[analog turret]

Exactly, kentro could stay as a slower animal, but just be a pain in the ass to get a hold of

[halcyon dove]

It does, it’s just buggy af and 98% of the time actually saves the rex

[severe wadi]

yeah, high risk high reward

[silk iron]

running into an aggro baby maia when theres a hacking baby maia around... erm

[severe wadi]

would be cool if they made kentro super hard to hunt as a pack of really anything, but it gives more diet than other dinos

[midnight kernel]

The fact that this game has such detailed combat and cc we can even discuss moving a rex's head sideways from a stego tailflick lol

[halcyon dove]

Make like a tree and live another day

[analog turret]

I don’t mind that so much, but it should hurt like hell… maybe even add a headfracture on there too

[silk iron]

i ran

[analog turret]

As a OOOH I got hit in the face with a huge spike my eyes are bleeding and I spilled my milk

[sturdy surge]

how do you get trike to prime?

[severe wadi]

stegos spikes going directly into a rexes neck would hurt like hell

[analog turret]

Damn straight

[severe wadi]

if not kill it from blood loss

[lost musk]

uthats me

[halcyon dove]

Certainly wouldn’t hurt for long

[fringe adder]

yea that would almost certainly be fatal lol

[lost musk]

into a rexes neck would bleed it out if it hit one of the major blood vessels no?

[torn jay]

someone’s gotta say it

KENTRO’S DEFENSIVE UPPERCUT SUCKS

[void marlin]

Hi

[halcyon dove]

The game has good combat where at its core it’s 90% spacing knowledge. Which makes speed and agility the strongest stats in the game. Until allo shows up anyway lol

[fringe adder]

hence it would not hurt for long cuz rex brain brain will go unconscious from no oxygen

[void marlin]

I'm

[halcyon dove]

Can’t feel pain if you’re in the forever box

[ripe whale]

No way

[gritty hamlet]

I think they nerfed carno standing still charge

[midnight kernel]

I had a tail duel with a kentro as teno a couple days back now i wanna find that clip the spacing was SO close without touching lmao

[void marlin]

Good ragebait ngl

[neon elk]

no

[void marlin]

oh

[torn jay]

https://tenor.com/view/druski-shrug-idk-iono-hands-up-gif-7122581203490458147

[neon elk]

sorry

[analog turret]

You can't have it be a straight kill for balance and fun reasons... but it should absolutely hurt

[void marlin]

Make Kentro be able to one-shot any Rex

[halcyon dove]

Doesn’t kentro get folded loke a bag of wet shirts if it gets tail slammed into 3 headshot kicks?

[analog turret]

The rex should be put into a position where its better off disengaging

[midnight kernel]

Probably. Assuming you can get the kicks off

Kent can knock allo down with shoulder check im not risking that much lol

[neon elk]

oh

[halcyon dove]

Kentro doesn’t have any forward attacks, if you don’t let it run it can’t do anything to you in front of it

[torn jay]

i’m fine with the defensive uppercut having the weakest dmg, but kent’s current defensive stance doesn’t make anyone think twice before attacking, mainly because it’s not the best at stopping an attacker from getting the job done

[halcyon dove]

Idk it’s threshold but it can’t knock down a prime allo

[torn jay]

u can literally stand at kentro’s head in defensive stance and it can’t do anything

[midnight kernel]

An adult allo is heavier than a teno is all i need to know

[halcyon dove]

Ah, yeah. It’ll def knock a teno down 100%

[normal flume]

Make kento have the ability to roll like a bowling ball towards it's enemies

[halcyon dove]

Reflect dmg just needs to be an actual consistent threat, will fix allo thinking about just spam biting it

[torn jay]

we are better off cramming our head into a nice juicy redwood tree and put our tail into Power Stance before using defensive stance 💀

[midnight kernel]

Besides theyre pretty chill. Ive been weaving around sancs to kill or expose campers locations by being loud and most herds are just curious. The one time i found a mixpack brawl i ended up making sure everyone bled out after the fight lol

[severe wadi]

defensive stance should make you take a lot less and deal a lot of dmg and bleed to people who attack u tbh

apart from like on the head

[void marlin]

Is this animal dangerous?

[halcyon dove]

Ps on kentro is such a bait move tho, you have such a long windup that you can’t realistically get a hit without being baited unless you predict them actually committing for an attack

[severe wadi]

yes. thats a dinosaur

Why not play it

[high fossil]

Have the devs made any remarks on the troodons camping sanctuaries?

Surely it's not intended for bees to never become agressive to them and forever prey and defenseless babies?

[normal flume]

Photoshop.... Or ai?

[subtle sleet]

https://i.makeagif.com/media/5-31-2023/p2GqVu.gif

[stone tiger]

How would you even do that?

[void marlin]

Yes.

[vital onyx]

troodons are intended to be sanctuary predators

[subtle sleet]

You scared me!

[high fossil]

oh dear

[severe wadi]

bc its so op its not fun

[stone tiger]

And Omni?

[vital onyx]

far too large

[stone tiger]

[halcyon dove]

Troodon is the sanc apex. Life gives, life takes.

At least it isn’t a fg rex walking through HL sanc to kill you I guess

[void marlin]

Play it because the more OP, the more fun (probally, idk)

[midnight kernel]

There are many "great filters" in the game. If you are not sneaky as a baby, you die to troos. If you are too loud as a baby outside of sanc, you get kicked by gallis.

[high fossil]

rather have a rex in hl
it just feels cheap. there's no defense

[severe wadi]

ah i heard the clicking ambience for the first time in ht

[stone tiger]

Then Omni would be around the sanctuary hunting juveniles before they enter into the palms

[midnight kernel]

I will personally kill any juvenile preds i catch in the open as teno

[halcyon dove]

Aye, to each they own.

[void marlin]

Perish.

[lost musk]

and if you exist wrong, you die

[severe wadi]

good. cant let them grow up

[normal flume]

At least people have an incentive not to scream all the time

[high fossil]

what herbivores can even sneak? other than the pachy

[void marlin]

Guys spam 1 call rq

[severe wadi]

all of the bipeds can

[halcyon dove]

Dryo hypsi pachy I believe

[high fossil]

...so none of the ones really worth playing, other than maybe pachy

[midnight kernel]

Eh you do want people calling occasionally. Otherwise the game is rather eerie. Ive been hearing a lot of adults occasionally calling and i feel that is decent and acts as a way for babies to try and find group mates

[wheat coral]

And galli

[halcyon dove]

Kentro trike stego dibble Maia all make constant huffing any puffing noises lol

[normal flume]

Oh yea for sure

[void marlin]

This is a threat.

[pliant birch]

I love kentro herds

[halcyon dove]

Why sneak when able go zooms. Forgor.

[real orchid]

[wheat coral]

~~i forgot its also technically an omnivore ~~

[normal flume]

Were people saying that the game was running better on HordeTest?

[halcyon dove]

Everyone wants to RP warriorcats, till its time to step up

[midnight kernel]

You dont need to crouch to be sneaky. Use foliage and hillsides to block line of sight and give you hiding places. Ive seen like 4 maias all at diff times and just ducked as a teno and they never even realized i was so close despite my tail

[stone tiger]

Its so odd to see pigmentation of the bloody spikes

[vital onyx]

should i continue playing my saltwater dilo and feed on some sea turtles

[severe wadi]

that reminds me i should read the rest of warrior cats after not reading it for like 3+ years

[oblique stone]

I would be his opposite of cowardice.

[vital onyx]

or should i play other vidya gamery

They change fairly often for me on hordetest, patrol zones rarely change if at all

[stone tiger]

Thanks to the spaceage

I'll check it out

To be announced

[analog turret]

I just like the animal part cause I've got the animal autism

[normal flume]

I think most people will agree that creature stage is best, and Tribal is worst

[stone tiger]

Another creature creator?

[analog turret]

Tribal is awful yah

Imagine... a big multiplier survival game with spore creature creation elements

[neon elk]

i liked tribal 😔

[normal flume]

Just tedious with how bipolar the tribes are even after you give them GIts

[lost musk]

lets see.. do i want to evolve another pair of fangs or another set of fins..

that'd be a cool way to go about it, natural selection kinda way

[vital onyx]

i enjoy tribal stage

[normal flume]

It's good! It's just the most challenging

"blue tribe is raiding your village"

Bro I'm like across the map rn

[stone tiger]

You lads know that the creature stage of Spore was planned to be so complex that evolving legs would be a multi hour process where you could not just put legs on your animal in a sandbox creator

[vapid laurel]

I love all stages of Spore.

Also Omniraptor smells (bad).

[normal flume]

Used to be an aquatic stage too

[analog turret]

We'll never get a game with that much ambition and funding behind it ever again

[stone tiger]

Spore was not planned to be the game it actually become

[stone tiger]

Bibets

One Italian programmer brainchild

[analog turret]

Is that just the cell stage?

[stone tiger]

That let's little zooplankton true artificial life go through gradually and slow changes or no changes at all if the condition of the environment food ability to mate requires that

[analog turret]

Don't mean that as a dig, it looks cool, I just preferred the creature stage

[stone tiger]

Its what Spore wanted to be

[analog turret]

That is pretty cool

Does it go further than the cell stage tho?

[normal flume]

Y'all play spore ds and get disappointed it was a totally different game (regardless of the fact they never would have been able to port that)

[neon elk]

they made a spore ds game
damn

[stone tiger]

These little zooplankton go through changes evolve real time after generations live and die but the next generation is adapts to the changes or dies out

you could be the most wholesome person in the world but as soon as you use chatgpt or something like that, im going to consider you as a bad person

[vapid laurel]

I HATE AI!!!
(Allosaurus IOmniraptors)

[rocky bloom]

I think so I keep crashing

[indigo cave]

I feel like the discourse around ai is very weird, people act like ai killed their grandma. Yes, ai has severe environmental consequences but out of all the big polluters, ai is probably the only actually worthwhile one

[peak vigil]

Still bad to support it

[sweet warren]

I saved loged my rex and its gone...

[real orchid]

the walls always have doors or broken part

[rocky bloom]

yeah pretty sure they did it I can't get in rn

[silk iron]

everything bad about using ai is very public info, you are actively taking water away from people by using chatgpt to generate you a dumb looking thumbnail

then hop on an admin server with a friend?? thats what my UNDERRATED TROODON PLAYER YOUTUBER FRIEND does when he needs thumbnails

Hard disagree, YouTube would be far far better if thumbnails and titles didn't exist, to some degree at least

You can have the best video ever with a crappy thumbnail getting zero views or a dogwater video with a crazy good thumbnail and get millions of views

[rocky bloom]

deadass tho, I wouldn't bother with growing rex or any apex tbh because of that and also the rampant mixpackers and hackers

[silk iron]

no way

[tawdry ermine]

Peak image

[midnight tundra]

I hate ai as much as the next person but saying everyone whos ever used chatgpt is the spawn of satan is kinda radical

[peak vigil]

They’re saying this is true

[clever matrix]

I actually rarely see people complaining about AI's footprint on the enviroment. Mostly it's about how it appears to be increasingly capable of destroying human creativity outside of the performing arts in person, and killing tons of desk jobs.

[blissful dragon]

that's like saying all books should have no covers, all movies shouldn't have key art, actual braindead take

[rocky bloom]

Can you elaborate more on that and also a thumbnail is a key part of the video, so I feel that take kinda doesn't work. Thinking about it more that just makes no sense ragebait detected

[lost musk]

no one is saying that 😭

[sudden oar]

is the kentro thats chilling with my maia on us 1 in here?

[silk iron]

didnt say spawn of satan, just bad people, if you're unaware of the destruction ai causes then thats fine and you arent a bad person, but majority of ai users ive seen know the damage it causes and they do not care

[atomic zealot]

just jump over it

[rocky bloom]

Sadly nothing can be done about it, money holds all the power and ai is holding all the money

[neon elk]

i love money

[blissful dragon]

then go live in the jungle cos your existance in modern society is damaging to the envrionment

[lost musk]

yt without thumbnails would feel like digging through file explorer

[atomic zealot]

https://tenor.com/view/gorilla-thinking-gif-gif-24818547

[silk iron]

i can actively avoid using ai and do my part to stop damaging the envrinoment, dont be ignorant buddy

[rocky bloom]

exactly lol

[indigo cave]

Not really, the thumbnail is a totally separate piece of art then the video. The skills that go into making a video and the skills that go into thumbnail / titles are totally different.

A video often requires ample editing, recording, scripting, researching and narration skills

A thumbnail / title often boils down to the most eye-catching, click baity piece one can create

[lost musk]

lmao i can imagine it already

[midnight tundra]

Not how it works. The reason youtube made watchtime important for a videos success is so that wouldnt happen. If a video has little watch time but a high click-through rate youtube will know its clickbait.

[indigo cave]

It's is about the clickbait but in the literal sense of the word. A thumbnail is nothing but the neon lights trying to grab your attention to go dine at that particular stablishment. The inside could be great, horrible or anything in between. The fact that the thumbnail is the only real thing that makes you click in the first place is the issue.

[neon elk]

why not

sometimes im glad the dinos went extinct, can u imagine the inbred squish faced small dinos people would keep as pets!!

[indigo cave]

This is what I'm trying to say

[normal flume]

Thumbnails only go so far, you actually have to back it up with good content to get rewarded for the clicks

[lucid urchin]

They'd be curious. But as humans are naturally combative, it'd inevitably feel threatened and attack. After that, they'd build a taste for us.

[atomic zealot]

that's assuming we could domesticate saurians

[silk iron]

3fs has the best thumbnails known to man

[silk iron]

i could 💪

[stone tiger]

Or not.

[atomic zealot]

some maybe, like troodontids. And maybe make things like hadrosaurs into livestock

[indigo cave]

It's like coca cola and stuff like that, mediocre drinks with a billion trillion bucks into marketing over the years to make the product be perceived as the second coming of Christ

[clever matrix]

I feel very horrible for the creative types of the next generation. The little kid drawing a gorgeous T-rex on the back of his classroom assignment. There probably wont be collages with classes for his awesome talent, and there definitely wont be jobs.

modern life has an environmental cost across the board and singling out ai while using the same infrastructure is literal troll behaviour. you're using wifi, discord, you game, all of which harm the environment, crazy how ignorant u are

[midnight tundra]

We shouldnt put the responsibility of being environmentally friendly on the consumers when companies are doing 90% of the damage. Telling the population to "be eco friendly" is straight up propaganda when the companies get away with so much.

[mental wedge]

Hello! I'm downloading the game for the first time, pretty excited. I know the game is hard and unforgiving, I'm watching some videos to learn some basic stuff, but is there anything helpful I should know starting out? Im thinking of starting off with either a Beipi, a hypsi or a deino

Best advice is be very wary of who you trust, even if they're the same species as you. Lotta unpredictable players who could hurt ya!

I mean I would do that

[vapid laurel]

Yeah Deino is uh...
yeah.

[lost musk]

jurassuc oark is fake

[indigo cave]

It has to taste just good enough for you to not seek an alternative

Which is my core issue with it all, if you craft the best video ever but don't have the skills / malice to do a clickbaity thumbnail, your video just won't get watched to begin with

[mental wedge]

One of the videos I watched gave me 7 rules to follow, the first 3 being do not trust anyone lol

[stone tiger]

In Jurassic Park Rexy is curious and hyperagressive.

I guess the angle I'm trying to take was talking about the reverse, like yeah people can make the most clickbait thumbnail and title ever but it if the video itself is basically 10 minutes of absalule dogpoop then they won't succeed regardless

Not necessarily disagreeing with you point, but just putting forward how people with good content will still shine next to those just doing clickbait if you get me

[vapid laurel]

[rocky bloom]

A video doesn't have to be clickbaity for it to do well, the thumbnail and title are like cover art for an album. By looking at the title and cover are it gives you a sense of what type of music you're going to be listening to. Same goes for youtube videos, the thumbnail and title give you a glimse of what you're going to be watching. I'm falling for the ragebait but if you honestly have this opinion then thats fine but in my experience theres an art to everything that has to do with uploading a video and thumbnails and titles don't have to be clickbait slop, they can be your own signature style, it can envoke emotion thumbnails are awesome.

[blissful dragon]

you mocked the word and not the argument that says enough about your intelligence

[silk iron]

hes still around!! hes also fun to see

[indigo cave]

I'm using clickbait in the literal meaning of the word, baiting a click doesn't require the actual content behind the thumbnail to be good or bad

My autism when people use words for different meanings of their literal words

[peak vigil]

If a big company is doing something bad for the environment you alone isn’t going to stop it, but if enough people start refusing to use their services and being vocal about the bad stuff it can push the company to stop doing the thing

If you’re well aware of the bad stuff the company does but you continue to support it, that means you just don’t care about the issue and you value the services more than the bad thing being done

[rocky bloom]

But its definetly going to be a lot worse for them lol

[stone tiger]

We are distinguished gentlemen here with desire to rip each other's throats out in a hardcore dinosaur survival game

[silk iron]

dont you miss when ragebait wasnt being a creep or bigoted and was just being annoying

[indigo cave]

Again... I'm using clickbait in the literal sense of the word, an enticement to click on said video

If you have a crappy thumbnail with a great video behind or a fantastic thumbnail with a mediocre video behind, 99% of the people will click on the good thumbnail

[analog turret]

This is why I am here

[silk iron]

ph my god look behind you oh my god oh my god im so scared

avg islecord convo lol

[mental wedge]

Is the game like, oh, you are hungry, you go out, get food and a full bully, and then you just chill and be safe until you get hungry again? I think thats what actual animals do? Or do you pretty much always move around looking for stuff

[real orchid]

I don't like rage baiting in the first place as a concept

[silk iron]

im not logging on... ive gotten so close to sanctuary and logged out as i heard baby maia 1 calls

[wheat coral]

Yeah but once again, if the video is worth watching no one will care, good video with a good thumbnail. Click bait is bad when its people using a flashy thumbnail to get people to click on low tier garbage. If you've made a good video then you are more than justified in making a thumbnail that will draw attention to it

[lost musk]

a lot worse as people start to get used to generative ai and accept it more 😔

[stone tiger]

I don't like you when you post things like this

[lost musk]

LOL

[real orchid]

The game encourages moving around the map

[analog turret]

I like ragebaiting by making fun of omni mains

[ripe whale]

You'll probably move a bit if you try to become prime elder, cause you need to visit migration zones and patrol zones iirc

[stone tiger]

Never ever underestimate your enemy

[analog turret]

Omni mains read twilight ohoho teeheehee

[clever matrix]

And gentlewoman.

This is also the best take.
When you are brutally murdered in the Isle, always think of it.

[rocky bloom]

Thats not always the case, but like no duh you have to stand out. Why should anyone care what you have to say unless theres something there to entice them in the first place. Books literally have thumbnails (cover art)

[indigo cave]

Yes but again the skills that go into both are totally different and not everyone (let's be honest, few people) have the expendable income to pay a dedicated thumbnail artist

Omniraptors are like when you're hungry and discover you still have THE perfect snack but it's expired.

[mental wedge]

I read up on sanctuaries. Which are like, safe spots for non-adults to grow right? What are migration and patrol zones?

[normal flume]

A person who has bad videos but good thumbnails maybe get more clicks, br over time they will get less attention overall compared to a person with meh thumbnails and good content because the good content makes people come back

[rocky bloom]

[gritty hamlet]

https://klipy.com/gifs/tismalla-tismallah--k01KQ2P2FE1KQB12GCJ0BADW2JE

Zones with food for herbivores

[ripe whale]

Patrol zones spawn food for herbivores, and migration zones.. do the same

Or when My Dilo gives a trip to the poor player's Dinosaur who just wanted to play Kentro... but evidently falls prey of my totally not overly powerful hemotoxic venom

Fair warning that some species can enter sanctuaries even as an adult. Troodons are notorious for this.

The skills in making a good video also go into making a good thumbnail. You need to be at least competent at editing, unless you're assuming that people who can't afford to have someone do thumbnail art can afford to have an editor

[novel valley]

One frame per sometimes ahh

[indigo cave]

Overtime yeah but it's still a tragedy nonetheless, not a lot of people have the money, free time or motivation to keep making high effort pieces through low rewards

[mental wedge]

Wait so there are specific areas that more reliably grow food for the herbs, which means its easier for the carnivors to find them. Thats so smart

Does anyone here know how to do the running landing on ptera? instead of just landing with holding Z

[normal flume]

It will dude, I was in the same spot ❤️

[indigo cave]

I disagree, video editing is very time consuming but requires next to no skill as long as you don't go super fancy with it ofc. This is because you are merely taking an already existing piece and chopping at it

Image editing is rarely that simple and involves far far more skill because it's way more about creating than editing existing pieces

[fiery prawn]

Like we went from an extrem to another...

[novel valley]

I like that dilos are back, theyre easy to kill as troodon

[lost musk]

So I noticed theres also like, an whole nesting thing you can do with other players and make eggs. Can every dino do that? And is that something you have to do or is that like, optional

[vapid laurel]

Nesting can be done by all species and is entirely optional, but can offer some small benefits (mainly to those nested in since parents have little to no reason to nest)

[novel valley]

Did they get an agility buff or something?

[lost musk]

were? dilo is the same to kill as troo lol its venom doesnt affect its matchup with troo

[vapid cobalt]

is there any asian server in this game too? bc im having constant 120 ping

[wheat coral]

I mean, its pretty easy to open up paint 3d and throw some pngs together in a mildly entertaining way, you dont need to make the Mona Lisa for every video

[stone tiger]

[indigo cave]

In my experience at least, I find video editing far far simpler than image editing

[hallow prism]

Does anyone here know how to do the running landing on ptera? instead of just landing with holding Z

[stone tiger]

Depending on the player.

[lost musk]

[clever matrix]

Nesting is fun, definitely a cool experience that I've not seen in other games.

[sacred wasp]

guys,am i safe?

[indigo cave]

Yes but the issue is that you are competing against actual mona lisas every video for the attention of the viewer

[vapid cobalt]

aw thats bad I'm having ping spikes to 400

[normal flume]

Well yeah I'm only speaking from my own experience too

Audio levels, transitions, voice over and that takes up alot of my time compared to when I make a thumbnail

[silk iron]

NO

LOG OUT NOW

[novel valley]

If dilo becomes overpowered that means a large influx of inexperienced dilo players, which in turn equals your average dilo becoming easier to kill

[vapid laurel]

Nesting is definitely neato, I just wish parents had a lil more incentive to partake in it.

[stone tiger]

Agility is about how the player moves not just raw stats and acceleration and turning radius

[fiery prawn]

So, every species are able to nest, its optional, but u can do it for a quest to get prime

[indigo cave]

Time consuming 100% yeah, it takes ages lmao

[normal flume]

Anyways I need to shut up about YouTube on the Isle lol

[clever matrix]

AI in art is gonna be like McDonald's. Sure you could go to Gilbert's Lodge just outside of town and get a real burger, but McDonald's is selling way more burgers cause it's on every corner, and is fast.

[wheat coral]

Such are the trials of a budding youtuber

[rocky bloom]

80 dollars for my editing software, when I was consistent with uploading I was working 2 jobs editing 2 hours a night, motivation is bs if you're passionate about it you'll do it, I make my thumbnails with a free version of photoshop. I don't do this for rewards I do this because I love it, anyone who does it hoping to become famous will most likely burn out and quit, if you're in it for a reward you wont be successful and you shouldn't be doing it in the first place

[lost musk]

then dilo hasnt changed in its matchup with troo, its the same as before because thats always how its been

You know that's true.

Maybe rather than typical pinslop, it does a reversal and just sends the carnivore in some other direction
