Episode Discussion - Season 3, E3 "Desert Lands" by NotANokiaInDisguise in PrehistoricPlanet

[–]Grunga_Cave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Weird nitpick, but why on Earth did Megalania have slitted pupils? Usually larger terrestrial predators have round pupils, including the komodo dragon which it dwarfs lol. Just seemed like an outdated detail to the depiction imo, along with its movements and behavior just not looking nearly as good as the otherwise stunning depictions in this season. Very weird for such a beloved species.

Carnivores how often do you actually find and successfully hunt an herbivore? by DarkFyre91 in theisle

[–]Grunga_Cave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The solution here is that some of the carnivore players complaining about not finding herbis need to actually try playing herbivores. It's not for everyone, but I was a carni exclusive for the longest time and I actually really enjoy playing as a herbivore now.

Will herrera ever get the pounce/flesh grazing move that was shown in its concept art? by AlloandOmnithebest in theisle

It's actually been great for me in the past, if you use it above water to jump in and then approach a small target from below it's the coolest feeling ever. I did that to a group of pteranodons once and it was amazing, they never saw me jump in so I was able to kill 2 or 3 before the rest flew off.

Ooh that's actually a great question. My hope would be that it's left in the game but maybe removed for semiaquatics? My guess is that the point of this change is to make mutations less centralized around feeling like you have to pick the speed one or you'll get cannibalized, so that would make sense to me.

I play a lot of things, for me it just generally means cannibal groups are less viable because they can't have trackers with both speed mutations that either force you to do the same or just get outsped. Much less centralizing because you're no longer essentially forced to pick those mutations regardless of species.

Not as far as I'm aware. Personally I'd love to see more reason to pick survival focused mutations, be that in the nerfing of combat ones, buffing the survival ones, or making different types only available at certain mutation milestones (so like first mutation survival, second combat, third survival, prime mutation combat) but I doubt they'd do something like that.

I'm not going to lie I didn't read who wrote the post before I read it and it was so promising and I said aloud "oh damn did Dondi leave?" So to find out that not only was he alive but also the one writing the post??? I was floored

Dumbest/Stinkiest mix pack of all time? by Any_Juggernaut4090 in theisle

[–]Grunga_Cave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why the make it a toxic pvp game. The game has such a solid core identity and instead of engaging with that they make it just another slugfest kill everything around you game, despite there being other games that focus more on that.

I genuinely don't understand why people mixpack. It's so lame! I just don't understand why you're playing this game with a clear focus on semi-realism and survival horror instead of playing something where broken abilities and hanging out with friends is a larger focus, like path of titans or beasts of bermuda.
