Except for hating allo

[next shoal]

I know but I can't bring myself to have a favorite for example dinosaur or pokemon that is one of the most popular

[silk cedar]

Cant say the same, popularity means nothing to me

[next shoal]

it's very possible that I have problem like that cuz every time I played a game with friends with different characters we all choosed what we wanted and most of the time I had to change mine multiple times

[rough hollow]

Squid game bad because uhm

Because uh

[rough hollow]

[floral basalt]

squid game aint great tho

[rough hollow]

Haven't seen it

[honest dune]

Its neat but nothing special

[silk cedar]

I havent watched it, my friend says its not that good and its not my kind of show

[hybrid quartz]

Idk why it blew up, it’s been done like 50 times

Elden ring my beloved

Elden Ring just looks like Dark Souls again

[honest dune]

Yes its dark souls 4 but not really

[soft lily]

Might pick it up but I’ve not gotten into any of the other ones since dark souls 1 except for sekiro

[honest dune]

I’ve only played DS3 and I’ve really enjoyed it I’d play the others too but I already watched gameplays of it so…

[still hornet]

is it possible to find wild potato root Im searching for a lot of time

[sinful ocean]

look by water

[honest dune]

They spawn near rivers

[still hornet]

I know that but I still cant find them near rivers

[honest dune]

Are there other tenos nearby? They could be eating the potatoes nearby

[still hornet]

nope

[honest dune]

Well keep looking if you can’t find any it could be a bug

[still hornet]

maybe Im just bad

[honest dune]

Melons and coconuts have a bug keeping them from respawning properly afaik
Potato vines could have the same thing

[still hornet]

[wheat bramble]

Yea and you bullied Wee and I for our opinions. Look at you.

[blazing wagon]

I was foolish

[wheat bramble]

The way I saw Dune made it be a 10/10

[blazing wagon]

[wheat bramble]

@rough hollow look at this peasant

[rough hollow]

At least he likes it.

Definitely better than any, unchangeable Marvel fan.

Dune was good yea, part 2 when

[wheat bramble]

2023

[rough hollow]

October 20th, 2023.

Which is a Friday. Europe will likely get it a month prior.

2023

Covid 582

The future entails fathoms that we cannot comprehend as prescience isn't factual as of today.

[wheat bramble]

US will still be shit down. Guaranteed.

[rough hollow]

Anyways, watching this film again tomorrow. A different excuse at a time as I have undoubtedly grown an obsession with the film, yet also with the book.

[wheat bramble]

This is your 4th time?

[rough hollow]

Yes 🙂

[real harness]

when the king isnt double

[rough hollow]

Don't. It is much better in the Cinema.

Unless, you have a stupidly good sound system, you can't recreate the experience you will have in Cinemas.

[brittle rampart]

Jwe 2 is nice and all

But the pack hunting mechanics are very underwhelming

Probably goes the same for normal hunting

Herbivores don't run away from the raptors, the raptors just decimate every herbivore

And sauropods are just free large meat sacks

The animals have a stamina stat

But it's completely unused

Hopefully it's one of the first things fixed

[somber wraith]

yes

[brittle rampart]

So you agree

[limpid surge]

I agree

[somber wraith]

yes i do

[limpid surge]

4 velos killing a brachi and the brachi doesn’t even buck and just screams is dumb

[somber wraith]

^

[brittle rampart]

They don't even run

[next shoal]

hello

[brittle rampart]

They teased a stego running from a pack or raptors but they don't do that now

[limpid surge]

They just stand there begging for help

[brittle rampart]

I mean it could be that they fix it upon the confirmed release for everyone

[limpid surge]

The trike yeeting them is cool ig

[brittle rampart]

But the YouTubers that have early access have the crap pack hunting

[limpid surge]

The indoraptor with indoraptor animation is cool

[brittle rampart]

So either it's the first thing to be fixed after release

Or it's fixed upon public release

It might get fixed upon public release, because usually the product is different from the YouTuber early access version

[somber wraith]

cat raptors

[brittle rampart]

True

So yeah

[rough hollow]

in JW

[brittle rampart]

I'll be buying the game, but I hope pack hunting is fixed

[rough hollow]

The sauropods weren't killed be Indom

but 4 raptors

[brittle rampart]

They were

[rough hollow]

sarcasm because JWE2 ||Para||

[brittle rampart]

Yeah

[brittle rampart]

The isle time

[rough hollow]

however, I think they're taking this logic in because in JW- 4 raptors were almost able to kill Indom

[next shoal]

ok

teno na1

[brittle rampart]

Ok

[brittle rampart]

But like, pack hunting is busted

And normal hunting is underwhelming

[rough hollow]

at least we actually have it

[brittle rampart]

I expected animals to actually use their stamina stat

[rough hollow]

JWE hunting was terrible and predictable

[brittle rampart]

Like actually running from the attacker until they either escape or run out

Same goes for pack hunting

[limpid surge]

But Dino’s only go chomp chomp slap slap stab stab

[rough hollow]

yes

[brittle rampart]

The trike and para just Stand there while they die

[rough hollow]

JWE looked like a pokemon game

[brittle rampart]

When they honestly have a chance to escape, especially para

[rough hollow]

Para tried but struggled?

[limpid surge]

Doesn’t the para buck and kick them off

[rough hollow]

I thought it did

[brittle rampart]

It does, but doesn't run

Nothing runs from raptors

Or any other pack hunting animal

Underwhelming

Hopefully it gets fixed, because honestly pack hunting and regular hunting, along with no set kill animations is whats really making me buy the game

[rough hollow]

https://youtu.be/XQJckFL1IcQ?t=277

trike was still able to kill 2 velos

so, it still dies.
Standing still and bucking

but, it has the chance to kill some

[next shoal]

I will wait till it's free on epic store :)

[rough hollow]

I really hate youtubers playing early and showcasing EVERYTHING the game has

at least let me try out campaign without being spoiled

[soft lily]

Just don’t watch em mang

[honest dune]

Just isolate yourself completely from the internet until you finish the game

[rough hollow]

I kinda like the Torosaurus more than the Triceratops in JWE2

As a matter of fact I just like Torosaurus more than Triceratops in general. Or perhaps not, I can't really decide what my favourite Chasmosaurines are.

[rough hollow]

sorry but no

It's not that I watch them

it's that they're always recommended

same thing with movies

[soft lily]

The algorythm wants you sweet views

[rough hollow]

now I know what the Eternals Post credit scene will be

[rough hollow]

I know, and I hate it

ok so no favourite dinosaur discussion

Kunbarrasaurus

[wheat bramble]

For me, probably Tyrannotitan.

Either that, or Torvosaurus.

[rough hollow]

I don't really like specific dinosaurs, seeing as most dinosaurs have really similar relatives.

Theropods

[wheat bramble]

I think I have to go with Torvo since Tyrannotitan is basically Giga.

[rough hollow]

Yknow, Giganotosaurus and Mapusaurus for example. Also Acro isn't alone either as other early Carcharodontosaurids may have looked similar too it.

[wheat bramble]

I have a question. Why don't they just group Mapu with Giga?

[rough hollow]

Because they're still distinct enough

[wheat bramble]

Sine they are so, so similar.

Oh.

[rough hollow]

Well it's better to play it safe than to go too far with taxon lumping

The reason why Riparovenator and Ceratosuchops are distinguishable from Baryonyx as well as each other is their braincases and snouts.

Also the only valid Spinosaurus material is the original holotype. The Moroccan neotyoe probably is a different taxon, but some scientists want to lump then together anyway.

[soft nacelle]

Velo

[next shoal]

I have been summoned

[next shoal]

maybe bary? idk tbh

oh wait fav dino in jwe or overall?

[rough hollow]

I sorta like most dinosaurs in general, birds included.

[rough hollow]

Overall

[next shoal]

I like amphibians

then probably bary, or at least nothing else comes to my mind rn

[hybrid quartz]

Allosaurus

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-chad-gif-20773266

[next shoal]

I know that my fav dino has to be one from the isle so that I can enjoy it :)

[hybrid quartz]

(allosaurus is in the isle)

[rough hollow]

And now I feel sorta confused about me not having any particular favourite dinosaur while others do.

[soft nacelle]

(magy is in the isle)

[next shoal]

trust me, I didn't have one until yesterday too, and I'm still unsure about bary

[hybrid quartz]

Be sure about Allosaurus

[rough hollow]

I quite like some fictional creatures if I'm honest

[next shoal]

here, I was so goddamn happy I managed to do it lol

[hybrid quartz]

was allosaurus number 1 🙂

[next shoal]

Favorite creatures from isle roster

1. Bary
2. Beipi
3. Dilo
4. Herrera
5. Styraco
   (this list would probably greatly differ if it wasn't that some of the dinos have certain abilities they wouldn't have irl)

[hybrid quartz]

hmmm, it is.. acceptable

[next shoal]

if it wasn't for fictionalization beipi wouldn't be in top 5, and idk about herrera

[rose crow]

wait a second... so I was looking over the roster for JWE2 and... I think they are gonna change Iggys model

[hybrid quartz]

Foniu what is your opinion on Omni Styraco

[next shoal]

I don't really care tbh

[hybrid quartz]

Fair

[rough hollow]

Why not have every single Ceratopsian be omnivorous? I'm gonna be clear, styracosaurus isn't unique.

[soft nacelle]

Top 5 favorite dinos

1. Deinosuchus
   2.Velo
   3.Carno
   4.Sucho
   5.Cheirus

[rose crow]

^^ good take

[next shoal]

I would prefer pachyrino if it wasn't that big, but styraco is just perfect sized and I fuckign love imagining fighting two allos as styraco lol

[rose crow]

To make it unique, get it?

[soft nacelle]

I lied

[rough hollow]

@bold axle hi

[rough hollow]

Why add Styraco in the first place when you have dibble n crap

[hybrid quartz]

yes but..
But..
Idk

[hybrid quartz]

Reverse it, why have dibble when you can have Styraco 😼

[rough hollow]

Styraco > Dibble

[next shoal]

it's 1.3 tons heavier lol

[rose crow]

Because it has an amazing model and is larger by a bit making it a mid tier

[rough hollow]

Rubeosaurus Alt Skin for Styraco

[hybrid quartz]

And god knows we need mid tiers

[next shoal]

yes

[rose crow]

Exactly

[hybrid quartz]

fucking small roster

taking up so much space

[next shoal]

remove half of the small roster add 2 mid tiers

[hybrid quartz]

give some slots to the mid boys

[rough hollow]

Also there's this literally incredible thing called ontogenic niche shifting. I.e changing niches as you grow older. Good example: alligators (juveniles eat insects and frogs n shit, adults eat significantly larger animals like deer)

[rose crow]

Our only true mid tiers (excluding styraco) is Allosaurus, Albertosaurus and Maiasaura

[hybrid quartz]

Give Borealopelta

[next shoal]

ye carno and plateo are in a weird place

[rose crow]

Ok... how has this anything to do with omni styraco?

[hybrid quartz]

And Vegaraptor 😉

[rough hollow]

It means that sub trike can occupy the same niche.

[rose crow]

So? There won't be a constant suply of sub trikes

[next shoal]

30% trike can occupy same niche as dibble :)

or 20% idk

[hybrid quartz]

Infant trike can sub in for ava

Rex can just take over all the land theropod niches except Theri

[rose crow]

And... cheirus, and beipi

[hybrid quartz]

Land theropod

[rose crow]

and ovi, herrera. etc.

[next shoal]

ye I really don't like the ontogenic niche shifting argument

[rose crow]

Wait, herrera maybe isn't a theropod probably ish

[rough hollow]

What about rexes.

[hybrid quartz]

Fucking sauropod

[next shoal]

wdym

[rose crow]

honestly, it is about as big of a clusterfuck as spinosaurus is nowadays

[next shoal]

oh lol really?

[rough hollow]

Juvie rexes are lanky as shit and have weak bites, adults are barrels on legs with preposterously powerful bites.

#moderation please get off of topic 🙂👍

[rose crow]

Herrerasaurus is potentially its own thing now... kinda fucky to talk about

[next shoal]

ok that doesn't change the fact that I don't like ontogenic niche shifting as an argument to say why we shouldn't add a certain dino

[next shoal]

alright

[hybrid quartz]

just make it a goddamn theropod and leave it at that

[next shoal]

do favorite dinosaurs count as offtopic?

[rough hollow]

Ok, my second argument is that I hate styraco and I hate a bunch of shit being added into the roster.

[rose crow]

there isn't a clear line on what is and isn't anymore ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[next shoal]

#isle-discussion for that ig

[rose crow]

I think that is more of a you being a little grumpy child rather than the animals fault.

[rough hollow]

offtopic can be anything that doesn't fall under NSFW and politics

and, isle stuff in #isle-discussion I guess

[hybrid quartz]

If you all could removed any dinosaurs on the roster what would they be and what replacements (if any) would you guys make?

[rough hollow]

Styracosaurus is the best big ceratopsian.

You know what why not have actual fictional dinosaurs instead of something that is poorly and poorly grounded into real world shit. By that I mean having sizes of genetically engineered dinosaurs based on that of their real world counterparts even when they're basically nothing alike.

[next shoal]

@rough hollow copy everyting you typed so far and paste it into #isle-discussion

oh nvm

[soft lily]

I don’t see anything wrong with the roster size cause everything’s gonna have an ai variant anyway

[rose crow]

because that takes so much more effort for something the grand public doesn't give a fucking shit about?

[rough hollow]

Yeah but no

[rough hollow]

but I wanna find people playing as Minmi?

As a matter of fact people heavily rely on real world information to base their arguments and claims about these fictional inaccurate creatures.

and I'm the only one playing as a Minmi. What do I do?

[young gale]

https://tenor.com/view/jurassic-world-jurassic-world-evolution-spinosaurus-species-profile-data-gif-22504114

[soft lily]

You will, if people play it

[rose crow]

Sucks to suck I guess?

[next shoal]

you play with me

[rough hollow]

yeah, but 100-200 players with 56 playables

[young gale]

I will play minmi with you. 🙂

[rough hollow]

with who, I'm the only one playing as Minmi

[hybrid quartz]

And tribals and mercs

[next shoal]

with me (I know what you mean I want bigger player cap too)

[rough hollow]

If the isle's genetically engineered weren't actually synonymised with minimally identical real life counterparts there wouldn't be this issue.

Tribals and mercs are probably going to be around 50% of the server pop

[hybrid quartz]

love

[soft lily]

Then Minmi is probably not fun and avoided by the general player base

[rough hollow]

"I hate the AI can help fill in the server" argument.

because it's stupid.

You want to play a packhunter, but you can't. Why?
Because there are 56 playables, with around 100-200 players in that server. (If it's full)
that means there should be only around 2-4 other people of THE SAME SPECIES.

So? You want to play as a pack hunter?
Good luck trying to find people playing with you

especially with Spiro

[next shoal]

^

[hybrid quartz]

Grouping with AI for terminator buddies 😼

[rough hollow]

it's not just Minmi, but literally anything

While making fictional animals presents the issue of naming it, there are pros such as having more creative freedom than basing it strictly or semi strictly off of a real animal.

And obviously you'll get bias with things such as Trex and Utah (people WILL play them more)

[surreal nacelle]

wip keep in mind (I was asked to post)

[rough hollow]

nice

[next shoal]

:D

[soft lily]

I don’t see ai as exactly replacing players, more as just making sure that gaps in the ecosystem that players don’t gravitate towards are actively filled

[rough hollow]

Oh and people can't complain about them being inaccurate, either, because they're entirely fictional animals, not based on real life animals.

[hybrid quartz]

they do whatever they want regardless of if they’re basing it off a real animal already tho

[rough hollow]

but you still have an issue with finding other players of the same species.
Which IS a bigger problem

[gentle oriole]

[rough hollow]

seeing as they want Carni diets to be more broad (with gore)
adding AI to fill playables isn't a necessity

[hybrid quartz]

https://tenor.com/view/run-godzilla-its-gif-8109692

[soft lily]

You have calls and species only chat, and nesting to find them with

[rough hollow]

Yes, but then going back to my previous point of people comparing them with their minimally identical real life counterparts and using said real life counterparts as the basis for arguments about their balance ingame.

[rough hollow]

Because there are 56 playables, with around 100-200 players in that server. (If it's full)
that means there should be only around 2-4 other people of THE SAME SPECIES.

[rough hollow]

It is real good. I get legendary vibes

good luck trying to find 3-4 other people in the same species.
Using local chat

[rough hollow]

yes

[surreal nacelle]

It's a mix of Godzilla 2k and Legendary's

[soft lily]

And getting rid of ai solves this issue?

[surreal nacelle]

Godzilla 2000 is my favorite Japanese depiction

[rough hollow]

No.
Not having 56 playables at once (and no AI filling those animals) is the solution.

[next shoal]

no but adding ai doesn't solve it either

[surreal nacelle]

but legendary deserves some love too

[surreal nacelle]

Also thank you lol

[rough hollow]

oh and, Dinosaur AI sucks

[hybrid quartz]

Based

[rough hollow]

OP, they aren't humans, their flaws in written in numbers

[soft lily]

How low you thinking?

[surreal nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/godzilla-2000-millennium-rampage-ready-to-smash-gif-23114493

[rough hollow]

I hate dino AI.

Rather substantial difference in terms of actual body thickness as well as proportions

[soft lily]

I’m talking about playables when I asked how low you’re thinking

[next shoal]

just tell us what would you kick out

[rough hollow]

same with that.
I love almost all the 56 playables.

But, you can't have all 56 playables at once.
It's not even just an issue with finding other people- it's an issue with niches and playstyles.

Some playables are just generally better than others.
I understand they want everything to be unique, but it's not easy to fill 56 unique niches

[next shoal]

imagine the dream of isle having 500 player cap on one server

or fucking 1000

[rough hollow]

I don't think any place on earth can support 56 unique megafaunal niches.

[soft lily]

You won’t on officials though, which I believe will be catered towards animals that can interact with mercs in a meaningful fashion, while those that don’t fit the bill are regulated to ai only for the sake of fleshing out the world and ecosystem.

[hybrid quartz]

The server room https://tenor.com/view/supernova-ssb-gif-21160251

[next shoal]

(keep in mind not all of 56 dinos will be on officials)

[rough hollow]

Please by aware that by "megafauna", I mean animals about the same size as humans, if not larger.

[rough hollow]

No

When I mentioned that we may not have all animals as playable on official servers, maybe it's more prudent for me to give you a specific example as to why that is said. Simply, it's better than saying that they will, as it grants us far more room to appropriately adjust things should certain animals not pan out as intended during development or testing. So if we were to flat out state "Every animal will be playable on official servers" We'd back ourselves into a corner when it comes to a variety of animals that we simply don't have significant gameplay data on right now, a major example of this being things like Titanoboa, as figuring out how constriction would work in a multiplayer environment is the equivalent of exploring a whole new continent

Punch said that this is a possiblity.

Yes, humans count as megafauna as they are substantially larger than most other vertebrates.

[rough hollow]

RAM

if we didn't have a lot of AI.
We would have the capability of running more players per server 🙂

[next shoal]

:)

[rough hollow]

and make this game into a more player driven ecosystem.
Which was ONE OF THE BIGGEST reasons Legacy was a lot more fun compared to BoB and PoT

[next shoal]

true

[soft lily]

Ai is being added because players don’t recreate an ecosystem on they’re own though

Like legacy proved that

[hybrid quartz]

Rex Hordes

[rough hollow]

good

Dinosaur survival games do not work.

The Isle has always been more PvP focused

[next shoal]

and that's why making a dinosaur game is so fucking hard

[hybrid quartz]

I’d rather have AI than more players who are likely to just choose Rex or Utah

[soft lily]

Sounds like you have a very different opinion of what the game should be compared to what they’re going for

[rough hollow]

I couldn't care if we never got a properly balanced ecosystem.

because in the end, Legacy was more successful without a proper balanced ecosystem

[soft lily]

Legacy was not successful, at all

[rough hollow]

yes it was

It was

[soft lily]

No it wasn’t

[rough hollow]

While real world animals (including us) have to survive, it's not necessarily fun per say. It's their life, not a pastime.

[rough hollow]

you compare The Isle to other Dinosaur video games (excluding ARK)

that’s what made the game popular in the first place

[soft lily]

It was an incredibly niche game that was only played because of dinosaurs

[rough hollow]

the only probably with Legacy, was that every playable was a rewash of the same dinosaur

[hybrid quartz]

(It’s like the only one and didn’t have any competition until it was already off the ground)

[rough hollow]

(and BoB and PoT still suffers)

both game lack proper entertainment and gameplay

[surreal nacelle]

I think The Isle needs some Ark level/ level design

[rough hollow]

BoB will forever be the way it is

[floral basalt]

Hi

[rough hollow]

you are spoonfed bodies in BoB.
and POT is a chatbox

[surreal nacelle]

Ark maps were always awesome

[floral basalt]

Hi pigy

[rough hollow]

don’t call me that.

Jace did some ARK maps, iirc

[surreal nacelle]

Yep

[floral basalt]

Oh

[surreal nacelle]

Which is pog

[next shoal]

ye

[soft lily]

Playing a carni in legacy is being spoonfed lol

[rough hollow]

[floral basalt]

Sorry

[rough hollow]

because Herbs lacked proper gameplay and work

[rough hollow]

[soft lily]

Everything did

[rough hollow]

yeah, that's Legacy

which was still the best Dinosaur game

[floral basalt]

mmogusgsgismj

[rough hollow]

we just need a proper environment artist

[soft lily]

No, Dino crisis 2 is the best dinosaur game

[surreal nacelle]

UGH I KNOW

I just want them to get their people already.

[rough hollow]

But like the main point is that dinosaur survival games usually suck, for one reason or another.

[surreal nacelle]

Then development will be smoothed out

[hybrid quartz]

I’d genuinely play in aberration with like no alterations if more stuff could climb

[rough hollow]

Ikarop

[next shoal]

dino storm is the best dinosaur game

[soft lily]

What the fuck is Dino storm

[surreal nacelle]

Aberration was top notch level design. Regardless. The difficulty of terrain gave you something to do in the map.

[soft lily]

Is this like sharknado

[soft lily]

Is that paraworld

[next shoal]

what

[hybrid quartz]

Durango wildlands but pc

[next shoal]

what

[floral basalt]

Hi hello how are you im great how about you im fine thats nice what are you doing tonight nothing oh same wanna play fortnite duo with me yeah sure ok nice i will fullbox 200 pump the enemy omg you are so good i will edit course the enemy and put him in my montage oh wow thats so cool youre so attractive and hot and nice oh thank you i can only say the same for you

[rough hollow]

Reaper king :))

[soft lily]

Only real chad remember paraworld

[rough hollow]

hi, how are you

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/4b5K94

[floral basalt]

Im good

[hybrid quartz]

hi unknxx

[rough hollow]

very good

[floral basalt]

hi

[hybrid quartz]

hello

[rough hollow]

Saurian has some rather nice biomes. However it's a literal replica of an irl thing called the hell creek formation.

[floral basalt]

im happy about my report card

[rough hollow]

yes

[rough hollow]

very nice

[floral basalt]

Ok and

[floral basalt]

^^

[floral basalt]

How are xou

[hybrid quartz]

Unknxx what is the bird in your pfp

[next shoal]

dino storm

[floral basalt]

I think its a pigeoin

[hybrid quartz]

very good thank you

[wheat bramble]

I'll rebuy Saurian at a later date.

[floral basalt]

nice

[hybrid quartz]

(Do not)

[rose crow]

Saurian just kinda looks like shit compared to... most things

[soft lily]

I’ll buy Saurian when it’s good but I want that art book

[hybrid quartz]

Saurian looks like a mobile game rn

[rose crow]

Models are gorgeous, environment looks like shit because we only know a few amount of plants to have been there.

[floral basalt]

same

[rose crow]

Also the game looks like doodoo

[rough hollow]

Also it's based on a certain region of Hell Creek, Bone Butte.

[hybrid quartz]

Hahahhaahahahhaa butt

[rough hollow]

That's why we don't have the funny Alvarezsaur in the game for example.

[rose crow]

Ok? That doesn't take away from the vast emptiness of the environment.

[rough hollow]

yes

[rough hollow]

Yes, the reason why it's plain is because Saurian is quite conservative from a scientific standpoint.

[rose crow]

But it also has a sound mimicing oviraptoroid doesn't it?

[rough hollow]

Actually that's not really true either seeing as they made Anzu sexually dimorphic without any solid evidence.

Yes and the mimicking as well.

[rose crow]

And their designs are also somewhat just "Why not, it kinda makes sense"

[floral basalt]

ahahahahahha funni accept my freind request

[rose crow]

They look good and they COULD be accurate, but otherwise it is pure speculation.

[hybrid quartz]

ok (no) (ok)

[floral basalt]

oklvvool

[rough hollow]

The issue with accurate dinosaur games is the fact that paleontology is an ever changing monster.

[soft lily]

And full of angry nerds

[hybrid quartz]

Saurian on their 3rd Rex model now right?

[floral basalt]

8th

[rough hollow]

I mean Saurian has some outdated stuff already (e.g. the lack of hooves on Hadrosaurs)

[rough hollow]

They're already on their 3rd.

[floral basalt]

which on was their first, i only know the fat naked one and the fat feathered one

[rough hollow]

OG rex

[soft nacelle]

Old

[hybrid quartz]

is it bad that I think the 2nd model looks better than the current one

[floral basalt]

Tjanks

[rough hollow]

It does sorta look better but it's also definitely inaccurate.

[soft nacelle]

I think they should just defeather the oldest one and use it

[hybrid quartz]

That’d be cool

[floral basalt]

^^^^^^^^^^^^

[hybrid quartz]

The current one just looks so.. dopey

[soft nacelle]

And the second one is just a rat

[rough hollow]

yes

[floral basalt]

oldest one is also the most accurate

[hybrid quartz]

Paying Digital Duck for his Rex

[soft nacelle]

8.000 buckaroos

[rough hollow]

yes

[hybrid quartz]

[soft nacelle]

Why did i use a .

[rough hollow]

Though the current saurian rex has a lack of feathers which it might as well have had, especially as a juvenile when it is prone to losing heat.

[hybrid quartz]

Best rex^

[soft nacelle]

Prehistoric kingdom is a close second

[floral basalt]

why is that one not as fat

[hybrid quartz]

Because it’s cool 😎

[rough hollow]

The better PK that’s coming out in a couple of days instead of 14 years

[hybrid quartz]

JWE2 vs. PK stans

[rough hollow]

Jwe2 enjoyers

[soft nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-dry-dehydrated-spongebob-squarepants-gif-9320833

[hybrid quartz]

unstoppable idiocy versus immovable nerds

[rough hollow]

the isle fans

cannot be described

the isle fans

[soft nacelle]

I like both games but pk is actually taking forever

[rough hollow]

yes

PK is a daughter project of the isle dev team??

[hybrid quartz]

Will pk have combat I forgor

[rough hollow]

games that don’t have deadlines usually take absolutely forever

reminds me of another game….

[rough hollow]

still not better than Saurian’s

[hybrid quartz]

no

[soft nacelle]

😍

[rough hollow]

The isle is split between nerds, Jurassic Park fans and roleplayers.

[soft nacelle]

All are dino fans

[rough hollow]

the best fictional rex imo is The Isle’s, just lacks bulk. the best rex overall is imo Saurian’s

by far Saurian’s

[rough hollow]

lol

[hybrid quartz]

CoD and Ark players when mercs + tribals drop

[soft nacelle]

😭😭🥶🥶🥶😭😭😭😭

[rough hollow]

Isle rex needs a call overhaul

[hybrid quartz]

I like our calls

[rough hollow]

really? in what sense?

Jurassic park rex should be Jurassic park rex

Isle rex should be isle rex not Jurassic park rex

[soft nacelle]

I rather a model overhaul

[rough hollow]

model is fine, just needs some tweaks

[hybrid quartz]

what

[wheat bramble]

Would rather have a feathered Rex.

[rough hollow]

our Rex is better than JP by a lot though 🙂👍

[hybrid quartz]

I love you

[rough hollow]

if you remove nostalgia and all that sentimental value bias, the JP franchise dinosaur designs suck ass

[soft nacelle]

No please!!!!! (I'm fine with that)

[rough hollow]

As well as two or all of the above.

Jurassic park velo is gross

Broken hands

[rough hollow]

^ applies especially to JW

Yes

[rough hollow]

Based rex

[floral basalt]

that was funny

[hybrid quartz]

If you’re looking for accuracy yeah, but a good chunk of look pretty cool to me as just creature designs

[rough hollow]

They could have been progressive with their designs, except no, they got a bunch of people who are anything but good at designing dinosaurs to design them.

https://tenor.com/view/lol-gif-22563216

[rough hollow]

who gives a shit about accuracy

[rough hollow]

Actually you can also blame the directors for this.

im talking about this multimillion dollar franchise making hideous animal designs

yes

[hybrid quartz]

I just gotta agree to disagree with ya then, I think a lot of em’ look good

[rough hollow]

Some people like to see better representations of things, even though it arguably doesn't matter.

[rough hollow]

I mean, the author of Jurassic Park had a reason (alongside the movies) to have inaccurate dinosaurs

Make dinosaurs for the people, not for the local dinosaur nerd
to entertain

[hybrid quartz]

and then threw it away with the Dominion cretaceous scene

[rough hollow]

?

Giganotosaurus and Tyrannosaurus weren't contemporaries whatsoever.

[hybrid quartz]

You ok with spoilers?

[rough hollow]

oh that

[rough hollow]

Yes, the producers must've loved that

[rough hollow]

I thought you were talking about CC, LOL

[hybrid quartz]

Oh, no

[rough hollow]

oh and, another Movie company thinking
"Trex had FEATHERSS EVERYWHERE!!!!!!"

Yeah they also fucked up a bunch of other timing and biogeography (e.g. Iguanodon, an early Cretaceous ornithopod, in the late Cretaceous)

[solemn spoke]

https://tenor.com/view/meme-gif-23433360

[soft nacelle]

||Giganotosaurus hunchback|| Kinda spoilers for jwd I guess

[rough hollow]

who cares honestly

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/712583280125280316/903050636529135656/image0-58.gif

[rough hollow]

i wanna rewatch that movie so bad

most people who will watch JW3 don't even care about palaeontology

Dreadnoughtus might actually make a bit of sense, seeing as Alamosaurus existed in North America in the late Cretaceous

[soft nacelle]

Stop

[rough hollow]

Obviously not, but we like to complain, like other haters fans

[rough hollow]

lol

But uuuh I'd say JW needs to be put to an end.

[hybrid quartz]

I mean it hurts my suspension of disbelief a tad, but yeah it’s not really a big deal, it’s JW :/

[solemn spoke]

https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxza9BpTpXkFGHfgtTCs3cbr6QCllMwulG

[rough hollow]

You know what fuck it why not reboot the franchise entirely. Or start a different dinosaur franchise.

[solemn spoke]

i hope they reboot it and make it even more inaccurate

[rough hollow]

Idk how well the JP novel could be adapted into a miniseries, but I've had the idea for a while.

[hybrid quartz]

The one qualm I have about the designs isn’t them themselves, but the fact that they’ve singlehandedly managed to obliterate any semblance of progressiveness in dinosaurs in major media

Everybody is so afraid to depict them any other way

[rough hollow]

^ they have a shit ton of influence and they mix together new ideas with outdated shit that frankly enough shouldn't be around.

[soft nacelle]

Yea make it so bad like retro paleo art and jwe1 deinonychus

[hybrid quartz]

jwe deinon

https://tenor.com/view/kots-straal-spugen-vomit-puke-gif-14891152

[solemn spoke]

and give pachyrhino feathers

[soft nacelle]

That's fine

[rose crow]

I think they might be changing the iggy design

[gilded epoch]

https://youtu.be/raAnK8q8Vfg

[fresh wasp]

the slauther shal begin

[solemn spoke]

elasmo bad, i like the rest

[rose crow]

the silhouette just doesn't look that much like it does in JWE1

[fresh wasp]

what is that demon on the left?

[gilded epoch]

Can jew2 come out already bruh I preordered that mfer I cant wait

[rose crow]

Elasmo is cool, plesio is the snake demon thing.

[hybrid quartz]

Elasmo is the best one tho

[rose crow]

Crocodile but actually Liopleurodon

[fresh wasp]

https://tenor.com/view/parasaur-giant-crocodile-bite-gif-17282321

[solemn spoke]

i dont like the way elasmos tail looks

[solemn spoke]

the one on the left is elasmo

[rose crow]

That is fair but otherwise it is great

Pretty sure that is lio

[rough hollow]

But for a reboot they might as well go for something completely different. Start from scratch, abandon previous design principles and stick to modern ideas and knowledge about dinosaurs.

[rough hollow]

jew2

[fresh wasp]

oh no

[hybrid quartz]

Naw it’s elasmo

[rose crow]

Oh really?

[solemn spoke]

i like tylo because it looks like a british person

[hybrid quartz]

fuck tylo

worst one

[rough hollow]

The whole genetic engineering thing could be played around with more.

[fresh wasp]

yeah elastmo is the one on the left

[rough hollow]

yes

[fresh wasp]

legit a demon

[rough hollow]

Though that may result in further corruption of the public image of dinosaurs.

[rose crow]

Excuse my stupidity guys

[solemn spoke]

attenboro is the best one

[rough hollow]

sorry

[soft nacelle]

Oh no jwe2 talk time to leave

[rose crow]

I actually like tylo, but... yeah the teeth are mega cringe. I like to think of them as barnacles rather than teeth

[rough hollow]

NOOO

[solemn spoke]

its just british mate

[rose crow]

Ichty is cool but too large

[rough hollow]

So adding chicken-goanna genetic horrors may be a bit too far.

[rose crow]

pupil is weird, otherwise top notch

[rough hollow]

Yes I've brought up this image, now you'll hate me eternally.

[soft nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/peace-out-im-out-bye-gif-14304356

Delete Tylo, add Cretoxy or Heli

I want shark

[gilded epoch]

Isnt that jp novel raptor?

[solemn spoke]

tf

[hybrid quartz]

Redditor!?

[rose crow]

Better as a marine crocodile rather than a Pliosaur

[hybrid quartz]

omgokgomgomgomglomaoaoalolaoaloala

[solemn spoke]

this is the only time it hasnt worked

[hybrid quartz]

skill issue

[rough hollow]

holy shit

[rose crow]

Just kinda... meh

[fresh wasp]

i dislike a lot of them

attenburo is great

[solemn spoke]

what is it

deinonychus gets thrown into the next dimension

[rough hollow]

It's some sort of reinterpretation/remake, not the actual animal in the novel per say.

[rough hollow]

funny

[hybrid quartz]

Jesus Christ did they just 2v1 a Rex and win

[fresh wasp]

yeah ichthys color and eye are funky

[rough hollow]

they should work on movement while being attacked by a pack

[solemn spoke]

maybe, they def need to balance it but im just happy its in

[rose crow]

Is... large animal pack hunting in?

[fresh wasp]

mosa is acceptable because thats what it looked like in the movie

[rough hollow]

everything

[fresh wasp]

tylo looks fake

plesio is just a snake with fins

[solemn spoke]

you mean larger animals pack hunting together?

[rose crow]

Like, if you put in two metris, do they hunt together or independently

[solemn spoke]

idk

[rough hollow]

who knows

[rose crow]

Cus a cryolophosaurus pack is my dream as of now

[rough hollow]

funny youtubers are only doing utah and small pack hunting

[hybrid quartz]

I want aquatic pack hunting, like Lios ganging up on a Mosa

[fresh wasp]

i think there was something said about that but i cant remember as i havent been staying up to date with the info for jwe2

cryo is closer to a mid sized one ngl.

[rose crow]

It is inbetween herrera and majunga kinda?

[fresh wasp]

maji and bary i think

like 1-2 tons for cryo

bary is 1.4-2.5 and maji is like 2.5 ish tons

[rose crow]

Wait what?

Since fucking when was cryo 2 tons?

[solemn spoke]

i need to stop using the jwe reddit, my brain is melting

[rose crow]

It is like 500 irl isn't it?

A bit larger than pre sized up dilo

[rough hollow]

lol

Cryo and Dilo are about the same size, more or less.

[fresh wasp]

oh got cryo mixed up with something else for a second

cryo was smaller than dilo and arguably smaller than mono.

[rose crow]

Huh

[fresh wasp]

like 400-550 for cryo

[rose crow]

Did he get downsized or?

Oh, nvm.

[fresh wasp]

last i remembered

dont know where my brain was with 2 ton cryo

[rose crow]

I remember, it was kinda going around as a medium sized theropod for a long ass time, people always made it the size of allo and stuff.

[fresh wasp]

might have been thinking of deltadromeus size

[rose crow]

Delta is around 2 tons yeah

[fresh wasp]

that thing is super bizarre for taxonomy.

its been reclassified like 4 times iirc.

[rough hollow]

I'm quite in favour of Deltadromeus being an Elaphrosaurine. And then there's Bahariasaurus

[next shoal]

mono is 325 now if nova's charts are right

which makes cryo bigger than it

and it's lighter than dilo by like 200kg

[soft lily]

Went on twitter and was greeted to people malding over JWE2 already

[somber wraith]

copers

[hallow mango]

honestly
im surprised how complete it is, and how good the interactions are
the fighting could still do with work, but its good either way
flyers are disappointing

[rough hollow]

If Bahariasaurus is Deltadromeus, this means it could have been utterly gigantic

[soft lily]

The interactions look rad as fuck

All I wanted

[rough hollow]

Yeah the enclosures for flyers are meh in regards to verticality

[gilded epoch]

Whats so bad about the flyers? I havent seen much on them, but the aquatics look cool asf

[hallow mango]

everything about them is below average

[soft lily]

Flyers are flyers, they fly around

[rough hollow]

Ok Ike there aren't any cliffs n shit in the enclosures unlike in the previous game

[gilded epoch]

Can the flyers break out and attack people?

[soft lily]

I'd imagine so

[rough hollow]

Yup

[hallow mango]

the enclosures are more boring than the aquatic ones
they dont interact with eachother, let alone land animals (to my knowledge)
and they dont interact with aquatics (again too my knowledge)

[gilded epoch]

Im beyond excited for the game to release

its in my steam library waiting to be installed

[soft lily]

Given how much feedback they've taken from the first game I'm sure they'd add in more flyer QoL if people ask for it

[rough hollow]

yes

[hallow mango]

land stuff looks great
im actually impressed by how the interactions are, and especially by the new pack hunting
aquatics are divine, i dont care how elasmo and lio look, its great

[rough hollow]

Also I wish they could have JP3 Pteranodons in the game in addition to the JW ones.

[soft lily]

JP pteradons done dirty

[rough hollow]

it'll probs be a DLC later on

[solemn spoke]

so about that, jp3 ptera was in the pre order trailer in the beginning, but apparently its not in the game, which is super weird

[soft lily]

JW ptera is the only truly bad design imo

[rough hollow]

The chaos theory mode does have JP in it, however (as well as every movie in the series so far)

[gilded epoch]

the aquatics look so fucking nice, cant really complain about them being realistic much because all jp universe dinosaurs arent supposed to look accurate

[rough hollow]

oh then it's probably just a skin then

[soft lily]

Shouldn't be anything else

[solemn spoke]

im just glad most of my complaints arent like fundamental big things, like pack hunting needing some balancing

[soft lily]

How's terrain building tools?

[gilded epoch]

On the 9th im probably going to wake up early before my classes to install and maybe play it if I have time to

[rough hollow]

pretty much the same

[soft lily]

Lame

[rough hollow]

Well yeah because the skull is shrink wrapped. TBF JP3's design upon closer inspection is equally horrendous from an anatomical standpoint

[rough hollow]

i think it's sharper. though

[soft lily]

Terrain building in the first game was super limiting

[solemn spoke]

theres more brushes and such but you cant do a lot with elevation

[rough hollow]

yes

I have my expectations low for JWE2

so I can actually have fun in-game

[soft lily]

Well more bushes and shit is neat I guess

[rough hollow]

i just hope i can at the very least have intricately designed parks

[solemn spoke]

time to wait for the inevitable dominion dlc

[soft lily]

That's me with every game that isn't MonHun

Hybrid dlc when

[rough hollow]

oh that's def gonna be either an update to the game or a DLC

[soft lily]

But with small animal hybrids

[solemn spoke]

inb4 camp cretaceous dlc after it ends

[soft lily]

Add the lady from season 1

Roxie that's it add her right now

[rough hollow]

Issues are quite obvious

[gilded epoch]

Camp cretaceous

[soft lily]

The stunted crest is such a wierd choice

[rough hollow]

they pretty much added everything from the OG game in terms of the roster right? and if you get the special edition you get hyeng

The pose is sprawled and outdated

[solemn spoke]

everything is in besides the dr wu dlc hybrids, and huyango is in the deluxe edition

[gilded epoch]

What do you get for preordering? I preordered the game and saw something about preorder bonuses

[honest dune]

I hate the JW pteranodon with all of my being

[rough hollow]

i hate that piece of shit

[somber wraith]

it has teeth

[rough hollow]

yea pretty much that's what i meant

[rough hollow]

The Pteranodons are all female, keep that in mind. Actually no they aren't, seeing as they're breeding in the wild.

[gilded epoch]

I hate this pteranodon so much

[solemn spoke]

for pre ordering you get the lost world skins for all your vehicles

[gilded epoch]

Ah thats cool ig

[rough hollow]

yes

[soft lily]

Pose looks cool tho

[rough hollow]

i was wondering if i was missing anything. like ngl but i don't think a whole lot of people would be too fussed if we lost like drakorex

[gilded epoch]

how do you get the DPG vehicle skins?

[soft lily]

Even if it ain't bionicle lore accurate

[somber wraith]

pre order

[solemn spoke]

those are the delux edition iirc

[rough hollow]

But like an actual fucking Pteranodon looks not only more unique but also sane.

[somber wraith]

nvm

[gilded epoch]

I was thinking of getting the delux edition but I was like nah the games $60 thats expensive enough

[solemn spoke]

ok im high which vehicles skins are for what

[rough hollow]

i just wanted the cute stegosaur with a lipped beak again. also just wanted to see what they'd do with megalosaurus

[gilded epoch]

I loved jwe1 alot but I had it on console and im psyched to play the sequel on pc

[soft lily]

You can always upgrade to deluxe later

[rough hollow]

also the sizes for some of the dinosaurs have been completely adjusted right? like gigantspinosaurus is a lot smaller than in the previous game i believe

[rose crow]

Saved up for this game, I am gonna milk it as much as I possibly can. Deluxe edition for the win.

[soft lily]

Just get the base game and see

[somber wraith]

lipped beak

[gilded epoch]

im assuming the delux updgrade is $10?

[solemn spoke]

they have, gigantspino (as well as kentro I believe) got a major size change

[rose crow]

Sinoceratops is tiny now too I think…?

[rough hollow]

THAT'S WHAT HUYANGO HAD IN JWE 1

[somber wraith]

gross

[rough hollow]

i mean. as anatomically innaccurate as it was. it looked kinda cute

especially with the sounds it made

yes

[rough hollow]

Actually the head ain't that bad, proportion-wise. Though it's quite anorexic. Though it also depends on the specimen used.

Ptera gang when

[solemn spoke]

wdym

[rough hollow]

it's so fuckin seemless bro

[rough hollow]

wow that looked amazing

[real harness]

[rough hollow]

the igle pteranodon gang MT harassing juvies in Center Pond the i

[solemn spoke]

weee

[rose crow]

Land animal animations in jwe2 are fucking gorgeous

[rough hollow]

yea they fuckin stepped it up there.

[rough hollow]

yes

ok ngl i really hope some of these animations are creature specific

[next shoal]

yeah but I think I agree with ppl who say that jwe2 is what jwe should have been

[solemn spoke]

i just like how they've personalized the animals alot more, iirc toro and trike have different resting animations and they are super similar

[solemn spoke]

what is this argument even

[next shoal]

wdym

it's not an argument, just opinion

[rough hollow]

i mean. it's the sequel. they've done more

[solemn spoke]

thats generally the purpose of a sequel is to add and improve on the original

[rough hollow]

^^^

[next shoal]

I don't feel like spending my money on it, as it's very similar to jwe, with the difference that it's just way better

[rough hollow]

or to continue the story but lets be honest. we're not in jwe for the story

[rough hollow]

....

[next shoal]

?

[rough hollow]

DUH IT'S SIMILAR TO JWE.

[next shoal]

umm ye

[rough hollow]

so i don't get the issue here

it's the better version of the original

[next shoal]

yeah but it's too similar to the original

FOR ME at least

[solemn spoke]

thats fair, but what would you have wanted them to do

(not rhetorical)

[rough hollow]

Is it just a case of not wanting to spend money on a sequel? I mean yeah I would have gotten that feeling, too, if I purchased the original.

[next shoal]

I'm not going to argue, I understand the hype, it's really cool and everything, animations are amazing etc, just I don't feel like buying it as I've already gone over a very similar game, maybe another time

[next shoal]

I didn't really expect it to have a sequel tbh

[rough hollow]

that's fair ig.

Sequel games sorta suck if payed and the previous game had a bunch of DLC content as well.

[next shoal]

it's like I understand ppl buying all the fucking fifa's but I wouldn't do it myself, I know it's not the same situation and all but I think that's the easiest way to explain it

[rough hollow]

tbh i bought the game and all the DLC a lil bit back. i'v had my gripes with the original. it gets boring. it's limitting af. and if you're going with super massive parks. the dino AI breaks sometimes and doesn't do what it's suppose to do

it's also super tedious at points

[next shoal]

I have only 43 hours on original, and I didn't even finish the whole game

[solemn spoke]

flashbacks to giganstpino entering an endless loop of circling while fighting something

[rough hollow]

mhm. it still does that

[solemn spoke]

hopefully nothing like that is in jwe2, i want to have some epico battle royales

[rough hollow]

not to mention to that i made a all species park. and tried to make it legit as possible then have everything sorta break out and shit hits the fan. only 1 part of the park actually started doing so. and it was the deinos and ceratos. granted i probably had about 300 or so dinosaurs all at once but still

[solemn spoke]

i like doing that as well, making a park and let everything run wild, but i just open the gates lol

[rough hollow]

i ended having to do that in the end

cuz literally nothing even at 0 comfort was attacking fences or anything

[next shoal]

you make me want to play jwe but I remember that a tornado fucked up my park and I'm too lazy to fix it all up

[solemn spoke]

[next shoal]

plus disease at the same time iirc

[rough hollow]

tornados are honestly easy sauce for me now. i'v done all the challenges and did 'em in jurrassic difficulty

[solemn spoke]

i remember my first time playing jwe i got to tacano and all my maias had a disease and i was poor

[rough hollow]

yes

especially if you let the fuckin AI try and medicate your dinos

even if you have pin accuracy up as high as possible

it just.. idk who tf is aiming that gun man

[solemn spoke]

[somber wraith]

[rough hollow]

[full patrol]

I don't know but I'm going to assume things didn't go to plan

[rough hollow]

like always

https://tenor.com/view/dennis-laugh-jurassic-park-wayne-knight-lol-gif-9467022

[full patrol]

To be fair, development rarely goes to plan. If things go perfectly something is probably wrong and you just don't know yet

Development for any game, program, system, ect

[rough hollow]

WHAT

[full patrol]

I know right!? Crazy man

[rough hollow]

NOOOO

😩

[soft lily]

[rough hollow]

la creatura

[somber wraith]

El creaturo

[brittle rampart]

A creature

[cedar rain]

This may be conversational but I like the design of elasmosaurus from Jurassic world Evolution 2

[brittle rampart]

Jwe 2 is scam

[young gale]

I'm new to the isle. How I play the crocodile dinosaur.

[brittle rampart]

You alt f4

[cedar rain]

Too late I already pre-ordered the deluxe edition of the game

[gentle oriole]

Oh, I see how it is, I post a cat picture, nothing. But criniti posts a dog picture and offtopic blows up. No , I get it, it's fine

||||

[young gale]

Ok and? Im buying the game

[brittle rampart]

Pack hunting is op and broken, and the prey items don't run (atleast in the early access YouTuber version)

Therefore the whole game is a scam

[young gale]

Ur scam

[cedar rain]

You're kind of right there I mean if sauropods could literally be killed by a pack of raptors then making parks will be probably more difficult with cohabitation

[brittle rampart]

Ur

Mom's a scam

[young gale]

[somber wraith]

dogs are better

[brittle rampart]

Get decimated kid

[young gale]

^

[young gale]

Shut up noob

[gentle oriole]

Wait, what am I sad about? I have dogs!

[brittle rampart]

Also it shouldn't be happening, and trikes and Paras don't even run, it's just an enhanced version of lining up a kill animation

[cedar rain]

True

[brittle rampart]

Unless the public release is a new build

Which it likey will be, so maybe it will be fixed by then
