As we all know, some dinos have been made "isla event exclusive", I have a theory to why this was made. In this thread I will descuss the ways in wich old islas were miles better than 3 of the 4 we got recently as well as explain the theory.
To start us off on the topic, lets talk about why "old" islas were better (in my opinion). Most of the "Old" islas were better because they helped most of the cummunity do something that sometimes is hard : PROGRESS. An old isla event would sometimes give an apex creature (not speaking about wanting free apexes since we could raid for those) or some dna that was important in achieving a specific goal (apex hybrid theme isla event) and were varied in creature selection/ oponent dinos. 3 of the 4 new islas were awfull (basicly we had the same line up of creatures/ oponents/rewards) the only one that was kind of helpfull was the hardest of the 4 (the one that gave 250 k coins) since coins are a scarce resource (as we all know). This leads me to "the theory", since the dna rewards were always the same (isla event exclusive dinos). This thyeory consists in the fact that dinos might have been made isla exclusive so ludia could reduce the number of apex/ apex hybrid focused islas (since those boost how easy it is to unlock an apex ), as an example, I had no dna to start fusing for skoonamet/ draco lux, after their respective themed isla events, I managed to unlock smet and have 270/300 dlux. Not to speak about the dinos that are given as rewards now (scelido and megalania are kinda good, the rest are dinos that most of the community probably has a good dna stock )

Thats absolutely what they are doing.

Not good for sales when most cna wait a week or so for an isla that gives dna needed.

However give me the coin isla all day long. I want more of those.

It barely helps

#

Also they're giving us the same rewards because it's based on the pass, the rewards will change when the new pass comes

Im hoping giga appears in nex pass then

#

Need giga and grypo for gryg

loud orbit
#

We've already had a good amount of giga events

harsh harbor
#

Yes, but I invested in tournament team back then

We should just have
1 coins (Or any ressources)
1 non Isla exclusive dino
2 Isla exclusive dino
Or 1 Isla exclusive dino
1 Apex one

If we have an apex one it becomes acceptable

loud orbit
#

But not just a free apex

coral perch
#

Depends

#

Like who th is gonna use Magnus

loud orbit
# coral perch Depends

That was awful, I can't even bring out Nom now because of all the free gemnis running around

Because 1.5 year (More like 2) to T5 1 dino is criminal

#

I think half dna of raidpexs should be the max, or unique component dinos are cool too

harsh harbor
#

Yes

#

They could repeat what they did for concato, but for all apexes

#

For the ones they choose to

coral perch
#

Depends on wich one
Like 150 for Magnus isn't going to change anything
Knowing that Magnus is getting stomped by everything
Making Islas lvl 20 only and only giving raid Apexes dna wouldn't be a huge problem because most of them are ass and at this point you have better dinos
Alca and Karnie tho should be 150 max because they're still pretty okay

Would love a trykovenator one (cause tryko hybrid)

Work weeks to get an obsolete dino
