It's WW2 team desthmatch style with both humans and dinosaurs on both teams.

#

And some dinos like the pachy (I think?) Had guns strapped to them.

slim stratus
#

And ye it has a machine gun on the back

#

And the proto has one as well

#

Compy has a grenade, and commits self die, desmato has a tank cannon, and rex has dual mg-42’s

#

I haven't played the game in like 6 years or something

#

I used some of my money from doing chores to buy the game on my brother's PC ( because I didn't have one at the time) and I probably spent about 70 hours on the game. Mostly I would just play as the dilo and throw goats at people lmao

slim stratus
#

Sadly the game died, like, at max you will find 6 people playing

#

I want it to get a sequel

in my experience, gigas spawn in specific locations, and when youre mid-game and have metal structures its pretty easy to just... wall yourself in from a giga attack

rough hollow
#

Imo I hate in ark how giga is so broken Op that basically any land dinosaur can go f itself simply because it will get chomped in 1-2 bites.

Why add rex, spino and all sorts of cool dinosaurs that can never be used in PvP because of stupid giga

#

Not the only ark issue, just something I hated about pvp

rose kindle
#

its model was never given TLC and for its size, its an eyesore LOL

pine abyss
#

Once the alpha has the best map resources metalwalled/pillared/turreted it's kinda game over for new tribes.

#

Even Pve struggled with titan kiting

plush jacinth
#

I mean if you are a gamer you can wipe any alpha they usually get sloppy at some point

pine abyss
#

It's possible, but the distance between end-game and fresh spawn got worse and worse with each expansion.

#

Sure you can level in like 4 hours, but basing up is impractical without joining an existing tribe and conforming to their rules.

Sorry

undeniably true

Dominion sucked

fierce inlet
#

i just came back from seeing it and it's my 2nd favourite movie in the franchise only because no movie in the franchise can top the first jurassic park movie

#

everything abt it is awesome the only slight downside for me is that the final fight between the apexes could've been better but tbh i went to see the movie with high expectations and i wasn't let down

thin fjord
#

Good for you

#

I was wondering if I should bother to pirate watch it

#

But after all I have heard I think I will pass

soft lily
#

I thought it was entertaining enough

fierce inlet
#

tbh alot of the reviews do it injustice atleast that's what i realized after seeing it myself

#

people are saying it doesn't have as much dinosaurs as the rest ||but almost every scene had a dinosaur in it and they were very present in the movie|| there wasn't a point in the movie where i was like can we skip this part already

soft lily
#

I think what they did with the plot was a good direction to take it in and very much fit the overarching narrative between all of the films in the franchise.

So standard jw

pyroraptor appears for like 1 or 2 scenes and then never seen again

same with the atrociraptors, and even the giga

I think I can attribute it to JWE playthrough vids

#

i would rather just wait for a new dinosaur movie franchise

#

i really dont like to see franchises butchered to hell and back

people really are being fucking melodramatic lmao

#

this is leagues better than FK and JP3

rough hollow

#

OH ACTION SICK FINA- exposition

rough hollow
#

im not sure if I am being melodramatic, although honestly I kinda dont like JW because its literally the only dinosaur franchise which exists because of idk whatever carefully set up informal oligopoly hollywood has made

merry badge
#

i was referring to stuff above

#

not specifically your point about your dwindling interest in the series

#

i get it

#

at least Owen doesnt survive searing temperatures that would kill a human twice

the feathered dinosaurs feel really hamfisted in execution tbh

at least we don't have a horrendous character like Ken fucking Wheatley in it

#

That isn't exposition lmao that's his fucking character motivation

thats exposition

#

All of my favourite movies have plots where characters have no reason to be there and nothing they need or want to do

is this literally meant to be some satire of modern paleoart?

Theyre just ugly dinosaurs roaring for 2 hours

when i first saw the show of the pyro swimming towards owen underwater in one of the trailers i literally laughed out loud

The one where you see its face and it's like

furiously shaking side to side at high speed

#

looked goofy af in that shot

soft lily
#

It has a fun scene atleast

#

Man

#

People suddenly stanning JP3 and Spino after this movie is so funny

#

All those years of shitting on it down the drain

#

Like the Starwars Prequels

rough hollow
#

its not really sudden

#

I myself kinda liked JP3, even if it was a sorta weak movie

soft lily
#

I swear people shit on it constantly

rough hollow
#

some people do indeed

#

but I havent noticed much change

#

i think it might have correlated more with the release of JW or FK, but not dominion (although movies do appear to garner or lose defenders when a new one appears)

merry badge
#

JP > TLW > JW = JWD > JP3 > FK

#

JW and JWD are the first ones i actually consider good films

#

JP3 is dumb with some cool action and FK is completely insufferable

rough hollow
#

i havent seen any of the JW movies, so honestly I cannot really comment much lmao

#

however I do kinda find the novels greatly more interesting in details than any of the JP films (although the first and second kinda redeemed themselves with action elements as well as stronger characters, at least in the case of the first)

#

Alexis being a little dipshit in the novel was somewhat annoying

it's what I felt JWD needed

rough hollow
#

dunno if its just me, but many modern movies seem very averse to killing off main characters

barren bear
#

a bit of proper JP deaths

#

I like JWD's use of practical effects

rough hollow
#

unless its like all dark and gritty

barren bear
#

a lot better than JW and JWFK

barren bear
#

The Boys did it relatively well, especially Invincible.
Amazon Prime-funded movies and shows have done it well strangely

#

But, most Blockbuster film companies too scared

#

How can they make a sequel if <these> main characters can't make a come back

#

it's why JP novel spoilers ||Michael Crichton HAD to bring back Ian Malcolm for JP2||

#

Also, it depends on how you kill that character

#

It's why Marvel took multiple films to end Iron Man and Black Widow

#

ignore Black Widow's late movie release

#

as that was delayed for obvious reasons

barren bear
#

oh yeah

rough hollow
#

i dont really see the need for a sequel for JP, although seeing as Malcom is kind of the star of the book and the movie in some ways, its inevitable that he would have to be brought back if there were to be a sequel

yup

on the topic of dominion, fucking target out of all things has some odd promo-behind the scenes vid

aw thanks. i dont like doing overly bright when it doesnt suit the stylization

prime crow

#

i just made it up in like a splitsecond lmao

prime crow
#

thats the kinda improve i like

#

low key i need bob to add a theri, oviraptorid, or deinocheirid

toxic ledge
#

that'd be cool

#

i like the isles slimmer theri tho, tbh
slim therizinosaurs in general look aesthetic as hell

#

which is why i kinda like dominions theri

prime crow
#

i think the isle theri is a good level a slim, the JWD theri i could excuse if the movie was any good

toxic ledge
#

the isles theri is noticeably bulkier than dominions theri, and its large amount of fluff makes it bulkier still

prime crow
#

yeah i appreciate it alot, i did like JWD ||blind theri that apparntly uses echolocation is cool as hell||

toxic ledge
#

yknow, i could see bob adding a more niche therizinosaur, like falcarius

#

falcarius seems right up bobs alley

prime crow
#

i could totally feel that yeah

#

i just need more niche dinosaurs

toxic ledge
#

i actually came up with a falcarius idea for the isle

prime crow
#

i need them injected into my veins

#

show me

toxic ledge
#

well, not a drawing unfortunately, but a written concept

rough hollow
prime crow
rough hollow
#

that is a zombie, and my mind is not going to be changed

#

the recently revealed concept art is also pretty gnarly

prime crow
#

no i think you are right on the money, its totally got zombie vibes

rough hollow
prime crow
#

i wish JWD had a larger focus on dinosaurs, it felt like such a disjointed mess

rough hollow
#

i like it and hate it at the same time

toxic ledge
#

(the only reason i made this idea was to spite dryo burrowing because i fucking hate it)
falcarius is omnivorous burrower that mainly likes to hang around jungles and such, using its claws to dig burrows and dig up its favorite food, termites; it uses a long prehensile tongue to lap up when it isn't munching on berries or brawling with its rival, herrerasaurus

rough hollow
#

another mini therizinosaur would be appreciated tbh

#

and I like that its actually considerably distinct in form from Beipiaosaurus or Therizinosaurus

toxic ledge
#

i kinda see an anteater jaguar rivalry with herrera and falc

#

both very equally capable of fucking the other up

prime crow
#

in all honesty, in a magical world were i could go back in time an alter the isle, i'd switch out some of the raptors with an oviraptorid and some of the ceratopsians for theris

toxic ledge
#

keep austro

Am I hearing playable ideas in here?

toxic ledge
prime crow
toxic ledge
slim stratus
#

I’ve got some ideas for playables

toxic ledge
#

the idea i'm mainly known for is my megaraptor, but i've got some other concepts skulking about

rough hollow
#

oviraptorosaurs are genuinely as capable of eating meat as they are vegetation or eggs tbh, and perhaps having that in replace of the JP inspired raptors might spice things up a lot

slim stratus
#

I’ve got one for an upsized stupen

toxic ledge
rough hollow
#

I was possibly thinking of an altogether fictional one

#

not being tied to an irl taxon overall gives more flexibility with creature design imo

slim stratus
#

Making fictional species is more open than using irl ones I find

#

Mainly because people don’t swarm you for being slightly off on some morphology details

prime crow
#

i made this fiction species thing for a flier some time ago but it never caught on and i just ended up getting abunch of hate from the haast crowd

#

found it

toxic ledge
#

when i make animals i tend to stick to a specific taxon, just alter their physioligy
my tropeognathus for example has a rhamphorhyncus style tail because i think that's cool as shit

prime crow
#

i got the idea from cg kosemen? i cant recall how to spell his name

slim stratus
#

I still liked my jp3 ptera esc pterosaur playable idea

toxic ledge
#

pterosaurs with long tails are aesthetic as hell

slim stratus
#

Can fish and dive well, but can run, fly and climb well, and decent damage

prime crow
# toxic ledge pterosaurs with long tails are aesthetic as hell

yeah i like them alot too, thats part of were the idea came from. cause pteros have so many interesting features but alot of them are so small. so by making a speculative one you can capitalize on those features and make a really interesting animal/monster

prime crow

#

i stopped making ref sheets like this after cheirus cause i got super tired of dealing with people treating this ref sheet as the word of god and arguing with me and others based off it

toxic ledge
#

ok ok you guys know my megaraptor concept right
how outlandish would it be to make the lad climb

prime crow
#

like at first it was fun but i dont care for people treating my work as a basis for an animal we dont even know will be in the game, and for a game with like not even half the roster or mechanics in there yet

toxic ledge
#

use those super large arms to scale smallish cliffs, or walls perhaps

toxic ledge
#

1.2t and 7.2m

#

i wasn't thinking it could climb for very long, i'm using isle logic here

slim stratus
#

I can see it climbing rocks and walls then

toxic ledge
#

but climb long enough to scale walls and rock faces

slim stratus
#

But trees not so much, at least not as an adult

toxic ledge
#

i wasn't thinking trees, too awkward of a shape

slim stratus
#

looks at herra

#

If herra can do it, a Bebe megaraptor can

#

Especially since megaraptors have the flexible wrists ye?

toxic ledge
#

oh yeah, you remember my megaraptor concept sheet that i made? (in paint don't worry about it)

#

i capitalized on the fact it had super large arms and flexible wrists

slim stratus
#

The boogy man one?

toxic ledge
#

mhm, my bogeyman megaraptor

#

basically the isles version of an indoraptor (but don't tell anyone that)

slim stratus
#

I also made a boverisuchus

toxic ledge
#

the creature

slim stratus
#

Croc cheetah

#

Run up trip prey finish off

toxic ledge
#

as cursed as the idea is, that reminds me that i had a kaprosuchus concept floating around in my brain

#

didn't so much instantly kidnap like deino as it does wrestle animals to exhaustion on the spot

slim stratus
#

Speedy lad

#

I also have a ground sloth idea

#

And an idea for haast

#

Mega sloth(hybrid of megatherium and emerotherium)

7000kg=7000hp

Stances: Biped, Quad

Speed: 35kmh for 90 seconds on all fours
15 kmh for 30 seconds on 2 legs

Damage: in quad stance, 80n short range swipe, does knock back, 180n paw slam

In biped stance: 250n omni directional swipe with hefty bleed. 350n upper cut swipe, with a silence effect on stuff 4 tons and up and knock back on stuff under 4 tons, 800n hulk smash with massive end lag and fracture.

Can create massive burrows, has bleed resistance thanks to thick hide and fur

my boyfriend bought me this design from and artist for 90 bucks and I can't even use it cause the artist doesnt allow "open species" aka I can't do anything but alter the original design sold.

plush jacinth
#

wait what?

#

as in its a closed species?

rough hollow
#

Today

prime crow
#

oh sorry

#

its not like a closed species, its a one off design the artist made and put up for sale

#

my bf asked for clarification and the artist was like yeah sure you can draw more of them so long as you dont include a (insert major defining feature of the design here) in it

#

like excuse me thats ridiculous

plush jacinth
#

what was the feature?

prime crow
#

i would get not wanting people to do a close species, cause money stuff

#

nautilus head

#

like the whole ass head of the design

plush jacinth
#

could i see the desgin

#

also you have payed for it do whatever u want with it

#

i cant understand why u cant draw the head?

#

or just change the head up a tiny bit

prime crow
#

i cant use the head

plush jacinth
#

what was the reason they gave?

prime crow
#

its just there TOS they dont have a reason, my bf didnt read it before hand and now hes out 90 bucks

#

i asked him to get a refund asap cause the TOS even forbids refunds

plush jacinth
#

honestly if he cant get a refund id just draw it

#

or change the head a tiny bit

#

they sold you a desgin once they have sold it to you its yours now

prime crow
#

i would like to do that but i don't wanna violate the artist's TOS and get my bf black listed for something

plush jacinth
#

thats why i mean change the head up a bit

prime crow
#

but i wanna keep the nautilus head is the thing, like if it was anything else i'd just draw my own

#

like i draw these kinds of body plans all the time

plush jacinth
#

you can keep the nautilus head just make it diffrent from what they gave you

#

tho make sure ya bf stays away from artists like that

#

thats gotta be the shadiest TOS ive seen

prime crow
#

yeah he got is as a surprise but im gonna ask him to try to look at the TOS ahead of time in the future

#

im hoping he can get his money back

plush jacinth
#

hopefully

#

idk why they wouldnt give refunds as long as its not long after

prime crow
#

idk either, its kinda ridiculous

#

like he just got it today

#

Similar look but longer tentacles and tons of variety

prime crow
#

that could be a solution yeah, im focusing on the refund thing first

theres also been aquatics, villager revamp, end revamp,

TI_Derp <- THIS

#

apparently changing the way the game generates its terrain (which changes literally every aspect of the game itself) is gimmicky. ok.

floral warren

yeah ill agree some updates have been more lackluster but since 1.9? we've had a ton of amazing things added

Village revamp was good, yea its technically more "complex" now but i prefer it that way, and visually as well as how villages spawn is much better now

floral warren

Did I accidentally steal a joke

neat basalt

like... what is this

#

(oh also every block in the game got a retexture as well, so theres that)

floral warren
#

Also, not that im against the end update, but in terms of "use" you go to the outskirts maybe once? Besides elytra and shulkers you dont need anything else

#

You can beat the game in like an hour without speedrunning

after hours of trading with them, yes? id argue its harder than just getting the diamonds

You can set up useful farms there, same with the ocean

I build a big ass base, have nothing to put in it, wonder why I wasted all my time on that and then quit

yeah no wonder you dont like any of the updates. its not your type of game 💀

Yea mc just isnt your game man

if you cant enjoy it dont play it

thats like playing gta to walk along a sidewalk. yeah its there and you can do it but its so far from the point of the game that its no wonder you dont like the updates

floral warren
#

Servers isnt even what im talking about

#

Playing vanilla or modded with friends is the only reason i play mc, dont really play it TOO much on my own anymore

#

its one of the best "with friends" games imo

burnt widget
#

I used to love minecraft to death, it was like my entire childhood but I've just grown out of it and none of the updates are adding anything of enough substance to bring me back

burnt widget
floral warren
#

To an extent i can agree, i dont play it nearly as much at all anymore but it was probably one of my top games growing up, I still enjoy most new updates tho

I just prefer games like ark with more substance and a clear direction to a virtual Lego set nowadays

i like coming up with a big project and making it in minecraft. i made a completely underground village that had individual rooms and farms, etc and a complex tunnel system with redstone. very satisfying to complete it. it also works as a village because cats spawn :)

#

Terraria absolutely claps minecraft

floral warren
#

That could also be true, but honestly my friends and I just grind that out and fuck around for so much longer than any other game, we're on that for several months before moving onto the next thing

neat basalt
#

terraria never really hit me like i wanted it too. i wanted to like it but the 2D wasnt my thing and it seems alot more RPG than minecraft

floral warren

Also I never really understood the whole terraria vs mc thing. Really the only simularity is blocks, ig, but other than that theres pretty much no other things they share

Yeah by the time you kill a few bosses terraria becomes a completely different game, you start flying in ufos shooting rockets at the moon and in minecraft you're still smacking trees

floral warren
#

I will say tho, I've always wanted more bosses in MC and terraria delivers HARD with that

But early game the 3d v 2d is the only difference imo

floral warren
#

I will say though, even though 1.19 just is kind of a let down, I love what they did with the warden. OP asf mob that punishes you hard is smth ive wanted for a while, but I honestly wish they made it even more of a looming threat and increased how good loot was down in the castle or whatever

burnt widget
#

And we were talking about why the game has basically no bosses

floral warren
#

I love minecraft, but god damn why is there only 2 bosses

neat basalt
#

because its not meant to be the type of game you grind to get to the very end of. its about creating, exploring, etc. the boss fight is completely optional

burnt widget
neat basalt
spice zephyr
#

its technically a mob thats just really powerful

floral warren
#

I dont count the Warden as a boss because you dont want to fight it

i mean to be fair i dont really wanna fight the ender dragon or wither either TI_DeinoBruh

You dont gain from killing it and its extremely hard, which I love

Game doesnt really give you much of a reason to explore beyond digging down to be fair. The world generation aint really all that tbh

ehh i wouldnt completely agree but yea i wouldnt constitute warden as a boss

#

I do love it as a mob tho

neat basalt

i havent been able to play 1.19 yet

floral warren

and its early concepts look sick af, would love to see them as mods

Minecraft is good for channeling kids creativity but once you get old enough to actually make shit irl there's no reason to play it really

Im not an expert in blender so I cant really talk on that front, but from what little I do know isnt blender used more for video creation or vfx than an actual game?

burnt widget
#

And I'd much rather have a more limited ark or rust base that actually serves a purpose instead of an empty shell like Mc bases

floral warren
#

Again I dont really know much about it, but defending building in mc at least, giant multiplayer worlds with friends and building structures to progress your own seperate thing with all your friends is smth I cant really see replacing in a different game

floral warren
burnt widget
floral warren
#

Ofc you can build that in mc too

floral warren
#

And not everything has to be empty, I love building inside and out, not everyone does tho

#

just depends on the person which is why mc is a big miss for a lot of people

burnt widget
#

Idk minecraft bases seem pointless, I can do all the game has to offer without building one, and it doesn't have enough things that are functional to fill it with

floral warren
#

Have you experimented much with redstone lmao

#

I dont fuck with that but ik thats a big thing people use in bases

spice zephyr
#

mumbo jumbo

burnt widget
#

I just find myself forcing myself to build a base because that's all I have to do, not because it helps

Yea and thats kind of the fun of it

You can build a function > fashion base

doesnt have to be the main draw of it

not everything needs a practical use

In fact I only stopped liking Mc after I played dark souls funny enough

floral warren

(even though i woudl love that)

neat basalt
#

honestly its hitting me that you may think of games as a "im here at point a, i need to get to point b, so everything in the game should help me get there" which is such a linear way of thinking about gaming in general that this convo isnt worth having TI_HypsiShrug

burnt widget
floral warren

Yeah I dislike games that are much more linear

thats a good way of putting it ig

Not a wrong opinion

It's just preferences regarding game design

neat basalt

not saying his is wrong, but opinions can definitely be wrong

floral warren
#

you're free to not like a game for what it fundamentally is, we dont have to agree. Not every disagreement is an argument

burnt widget
# floral warren Yeah I dislike games that are much more linear

I like more nonlinear games too, like, again since we all probably play it, Ark. In a game like ark I can set goals for myself like tame this creature, build a base here for metal refining, hunt this creature for this resource etc. Minecraft has none of that, everything comes so easy there are no goals to set

#

There just ain't shit to do other than build, so why even have a survival mode at all?

Creative minecraft is perfectly fine for what it is, survival is what I'm really critiquing here

you dictate the experience you have in the game. sure there are core elements you might not enjoy but you can easily over look them.

There are certain things about mc that can be challenging, but looking at the game as a whole, its not that challenging unless you make it challenging

with a game as free as minecraft, if anything boring is happening, its usually because the person playing is being boring

Like you said, mods allow that

You dont have to love mc or vanilla mc, and if you want smth in a game chances are theres a mod for it or you can try making one

that goes for any game

You don't review skyrim based on the mods for skyrim you review skyrim

Same goes for every game with a lot of mods

Again tho, its fine to not like vanilla mc, its not for everyone and can be limiting in specific things you want to do, but it can also bring a shit ton of specific freedom you cant find in a lot of other sandboxes

Not using that as an actual argument but

Im only on ep5 of s4, but its good so far. I dont love it and imo it doesnt feel as much like stranger things as other seasons, but its still fine, although a bit weird

I do like the darker aspect of this season tho

It's sad to see it get weaker

I feel you yeah

floral warren

Its a good show but imo after s2 i cant help but feel like its just not as strange anymore haha, I loved the mystery aspect of finding out about the upside down and everything of s1, now it has more of a feeling of "when are they going to find it out" instead of "what are they going to find out"
