I hear you on the villain thing, many people think predatory animals are monsters just due to their nature. Animals are not monsters, they are just doing what they do.
Exactly! If you watch carefully, you'll see that I didn't start any of the fights. I was just passing through as a casual scavenger (the raptor hunt was hoped for though, just not instigated).
thats one thing i've always found frustrating in the isle is those with the KOS mentality. i enjoy a good fight dont get me wrong, but people wonder why the isle feels so empty when they kill everything they DO see
@ponder109 understandable, I play as Herbivore because I treat the game like hide and seek. It takes the fun out of it for me to have the kos mentality. I genuinely think it ruins the gameplay in general. I'm supposed to be weary and constantly on edge, not just waiting for the next thing to murder.
absolutely, and i think thats partly the devs fault, partly the players. Newer gamers nowadays jsut want to kill kill kill with no respect towards their fellow gamers, and the devs have done nothing to slow the game down to prevent that mentality (other than slowing down stam regen which didnt help)
GG, I was the teno! We'd been hunted for 3 in game days by a cerato pair, all the way from river delta, in between a million deino attacks. Apparently you were actually a different pair so unlucky timing i guess, we just thought they were back to harass us AGAIN. We'd just settled on a name for the stego too, and the lil guy hesitated because he was scared of going into the dome. A tragic end for him who'd somehow survived the last attack and seemed terrified the whole trip 😂 he was our Helen of Troy! Our mascot lol. I am surprised you died though, didn't realize he came back after I died, since i had been sure they'd totally lost you. Funnest fight all week though, I was thinking the player knew their creature well when we were by the tree. Sick narration too. You're up there with OwlTime ❤
Yoo!!! Man I literally screamed "diediedie!" At the very end when you vomited xD I was so exhausted and knew I wouldn't be able to back off again in the end! Rip to your stegling! Our entire ploy in the dome was just to retrieve the body so we could eat! Unfortunate timing on our part I guess! It was fun though! Even if I was screaming through the entire fight!
Unfortunate that the HEINOUS crime of just trying to feed yourself and a packmate was what got you killed. Sadly it seems like that's how most carnivores in The Isle meet their end; a very spiteful herbivore seeking vengeance for a fallen comrade.
Right? I was so sad that I went out that way. I keep running through what I could have done in my head, what I should have done, how I could have gotten out of the situation. But in the end, it was just someone being salty that I tried to feed myself and then being even saltier that their friend died due to their own unnecessary aggression
@@dinometta I mean of course they do that I cant imgaine how boring it would be just to walk around the entire time and wait until someone attacks you. If everyone would expect that from herbis almost nobody would play them
@@voltaire9176Many animals have the ability to have rencores grudge against other animals And they don't even have to have much intelligence, for example There are many records of entire herds of water buffalo holding a grudge against lions that tried to hunt them (or sometimes against any lion) and searching for and locating lions to kill them to the point that prides end up dissolving
Right?? I literally hunted two things: that raptor while I was growing, and the baby stego that the tenos wouldn't let me eat! Everything else just decided they wanted to become dinner
I was one of those raptors! Loved the fight, very fun :D Most of us ended up turning on each other in the end because of the baby raptor, very messy raptor pack xD
@@dinometta Np! There was way less of us until the original raptors yall were fighting called for help, we originally was just gonna eat the teno body back down by the water.
when will raptor packs learn that taking on grown cerato's, especially with bodies, is not a good idea? Regardless of how many they started with, they'll inevitably loose too many to a half-decent cera player...
Probably never honestly haha! I've seen a few packs take down a cerato, though usually the cera had no idea what it was doing. I'm okay with them hunting me though! It's a fun challenge!
you're such a good fighter! i remember being a fg cera on spiro, all i wanted was to eat dead bodies, but a mean carno killed me when i was just trying to avoid confrontation.
New player here just recently got into the isle after Owltime showed up on my algorithm. Found your channel shortly after and I have to say the two of you have the best narration vids by far!
That was a really cool fight with the raptor pack. Very well done. I am a carno main, a friendly one at that, I did not realize a cera could do this. I have renewed respect for them, even though they will bite your booty right after a 2 call.
Cerato is an incredible animal. I really enjoy cerato gameplay. The raptor fight remains one of my best favorite fights in my entire time playing the isle. It was so fun
Thanks! The most recent update is not great, but once the next hot fix comes through and hopefully fixes the AI spawning and dilo OP status, it's getting to a really great point
i understand herbis having to be able to look after themselves, but revenge killing, actively hunting baby carnivores and even adult ones? that's not fun that's just being an ass
I was frustrated, but all is well that needs well. She killed many in my name and my spirits drug theirs to the edge of the flat earth and threw them off 😈
No idea! When I was playing teno I watched another teno run, leap the river, and throw themselves at a cerato that was just existing raising their friend. I feel like some teno players just live for the fight
Great video!!!! Honestly i rly love the struggle to survive. I wouldnt be horror survival if it wasnt like that. U did great job killing all those raptors, aldo they seem a little to underpowered.Cant wait for new dinos to be relesed!
Thank you! Yeah raptors against most anything else in a pack that size would have killed me. Cerato has extremely high bleed resistance though, which is the only reason I survived!
That's why i love the game, for how hardcore it is But yeah, herbivores especially tenos are always hyper aggressive for little to no reason Tbf, the tenos wouldn't have been able to find you in the first place if they couldn't smell the meat, which for some reason they can?
Yup, I was still coming down off the adrenaline rush from surviving those last tenos when the other one decided to end me. I can understand smelling carcasses for the sake of not walking into a slaughterhouse. I tend to avoid areas where I can smell excessive amounts of death when I'm an herbivore. But using it to track down a fleeing carnivore or one that killed your herd mate is just meh behavior
@@dinometta honestly I can see the point being able to smell meat so u don't walk in, but you also run the risk of having players like this who purposefully track down and fight other carnivores so it's basically, do you value the minor part of the herbivore community that genuinely avoids areas of carcasses or do you allow it to happen so the majority of the herbivore community can exploit it to hunt down carnivores Life would be easier if players weren't pricks but here we are Also the huge battle with the omnis, man that was so epic, I rarely ever get into such big fights but whenever I see it it's such a gem.
@@shaxo5364 I was so thrilled when the omnis picked a fight! Honestly by the end I wouldnt have even been mad if they took me down because it was such a good time!
People need to stop being so butt hurt about dying in an animal survival game. Like yeah you can be angry at player who’s here simply for a blood bath but being angry at someone who was just hungry is both asinine and pig headed.
Agreed. I don't mind dying, it's part of the game. But dying because I hunted something successfully and the herd has a problem with the circle of life? That stings.
Lol nah, it was someone in the official discord. We had a short chat after the fight, it was the same raptor who brought us the fish and tried to offer me the lung! They didn't want to fight us and felt bad for me when there were so many raptors against just me in the end xD
thats fair, sometimes thats all you can ask for.. certainly inspired me to try to the isle again. been hard avoiding it with food/water drain being as it is combined with food moving all about. just been frustrating. but heres to another shot :P
I feel like people only point out things they dislike if the content creator theyre watching agrees and points it out, for example the overaggro tenos, if there was a video on teno fight compilations most fights that were a 2v2 would either have the herbi side killing the carnis 1 by 1 (not letting the solo eat their fallen comrade) or killing the carnivore even though it had got its kill, such as a herbis packmate. Same goes for carnivores, alot of times they will kill more than 1 creature even though they had enough food, of course these examples arent exactly accurate or 100% what happens but hope you get the point, and tbh I wish everyone played like this instead of just killing everything and getting mad at kos or whatever or, on vice versa making fun of others for explaining why they hate baby killers (which happened in PoT’s discord general chat recently, I hated looking at the messages lol)
I mean, overall people are going to play the game how they want to play. There will always be hyper aggressive players, there will always be friendly players as well. Some days it feels like one or the other happens more often. My poor cerato just kept running into the aggressive tenos. But when I played teno in my previous video I only came across one bloodthirsty teno and I didn't include them because I didn't get involved in their "hunt" It's why I enjoy the isle though, every day is a different experience. I never know what mixed bag of players in gonna get
@@dinometta true, I guess that makes sense. However the main reason I made this comment was because idk if its just my luck or what or maybe just not playing the game much myself lol but from my experience most hunts would have to become a slaughter for either party to win due to not trusting eachother to stop the engagement 🤣 HOWEVER I say that lol I have some carno content on my channel of just pure gameplay and there were actually some very chill teno players, if I left them alone they pretty much ignored me 🤣 love seeing those players
@@dtbrex08 I've had a few hunts where they've backed off and allowed me my hard earned meal. And a lot where they don't xD It just depends on who you face. I do find that when I'm just looking for food, making the kill and then running away out of sight sometimes results in a better disengagement. Slightly higher risk of someone else eating my food, but usually settles the herd better
I know! I've run with a lot of very chill tenos! Someone must have spit in their cereal while I was running cerato x] Thank you though! I'm glad you enjoyed!
My problem with this game is that herbis feel the need to be "heroes" and butt into fights. I understand herbis in real life kill and sometimes for no reason; but these are humans looking to pick fights.
If you say so. But teno's entire fighting kit is defensive. They're not intended to chase down carnivores and kill them, and doing so weakens then overall because then they have to regain their stamina they wasted running after something that never wanted to fight in the first place.
@dinometta I think there are 2 ways to address the issue if developers were inclined to see aggressive herbies as a problem. (I personally think you have either aggressive prey or mixpacking and I'd rather the aggressive 7 days a week) You could A) nerf every herbivore capable of being aggressive. Or B) you can buff the blood trail/tracking so that while you can Deathmatch for no reason other predators will have a significantly easier time of picking up your train and killing you after the fight. Blood trails should be based on the size of the animal and how much damage % they have sustained. A Teno ate 25% hp should make a pretty big mess. Should look like a crime scene from SAW afterwards. That way players will think twice on fighting if they don't need to.
@@stryfegamingonline7583In short, roads of blood should have a buff and even be able to smell and see the exact location of the bleeding animal if you are close enough since it would be realistic
@BaldianOfIbelin they can have breakpoints like 75%, 50%, 25% for how much trail is left but if another predator gets close it should be pretty obvious something big is bleeding bad. Discourages Deathmatching, helps weaken alphas, lowers how often people complain about AI spawns, ups the realism.... win win win win.
@@stryfegamingonline7583 And depending on the speed at which you move is the abundance of the blood trail (Running leaves more blood while walking crouched leaves less) and certain dinosaurs like the Cerato can identify more blood, more precision, and longer distances but for example the Dilophosaurus is bad at chasing with blood to give a chance to escape from him at night
Metta, do you have any idea when they are gonna (probably) buff the stamina system? Its really unbearable for me... 😫 Its been 3 weeks (probably?) since i last playing the isle, been playing Path of Titans in the time being. I don't really like those janky combat of PoT though, but at least it still better than playing the Isle for right now 😣
Honestly, I doubt they'll buff it any time soon. It takes some getting used to, but I have honestly found it adds an entirely new level to combat and survival. There are some changes i'd like to see(dragging that baby stego carcass for example took an out of pocket amount of stamina and ptera is just.... Painful at times) but for the most part I've adapted to the changes.
@@dinometta i can't adapt at all 😆. The thing is, i can only play games for probably 5-6 hours a week, and with this changes, the game feels so slow paced. Usually i can grow any dino in one sessions of my playtime and still having good gameplay (in combat and survival aspects), but for right now i can't, because mostly you need to z walk or sprint for small period of time to conserve your stams, and the gateway is so much bigger than spiro. Most of my gameplay is about worrying about my stams, not to mention the nightvision is so awful to some species 😫
@@temujinchannel8584 Gotta learn to casually trot when traveling! It's slower, sure, but then when you do reach a migration zone or get into a fight you'll have full stamina to dive in! Then again, I've always been a trot-to-travel player, so I haven't had to change much outside of my fighting style xD
For someone with ADHD the new stam-system is really horrible. I can't hold up my attention span for the slow gameplay now. It is especially difficult since my main dino is Ptera aka the sitting simulator😅😭
@@July-nj5sn i feel you. Im an Omni main, so i know how it feels like struggling with the stamina in this new changes 😆. The only thing that bothers me is that i can't seems to enjoy the game now, because everything i do took time, the game feels so slow, and not to mention we got bad nightvisions, so i just afk when the sun goes down. I mostly can only play the Isle for about 1 to 2 hours a day, so you know why i can't enjoy playing this game anymore. Nothing to do at night, you need to walk while traveling around the huge map, it all takes time. Like you said, now it feels like dino walking simulator 😆
@@lemuelpierre2808 To an extent, yes. Though teno relies on stam for every attack except its bite, so if it gets nerfed too much, they'll really struggle
hello, Metta! I was wondering if i could get your opinion on the latest gateway update? Me personally, I absolutely DESPISE it. Aside from the fact that I was hoping to have received the new playables in this update, the game's performance is at an all time low; and I feel like I am playing a resting/starving simulator. I can't help it, I've tried for the past 2 weeks to give these changes a chance but even after 1200 hours of dedication to EVRIMA alone, I am beginning to feel myself get burnt out on being excited about updates and hoping for things that are not going to happen, such as the games optimization. I dont know, it just feels like we've taken a giant leap backwards at this point. Maybe its just my pessimistic attitude, or maybe i just need to wait for things to settle; but as of right at this very moment, the game is not enjoyable to me. PvP feels worst than it ever did in the past in terms of performance, and don't even get me started on the stam changes. Feel free to be brutally objective if you feel the opposite, maybe you can convince me that this is as good for the game's health as the devs claim! EDIT: 20:00 not to be the nerd that tries to tell a veteran how to play the game, and im sure you are already aware of this.. but i noticed you kept pulling the organs out for bjorn before he got there.. Were you aware that the organs go rotten faster than the body itself if they are outside the body? Love your videos btw!❤❤
Truth be told.... I actually love the changes. Some things still need to be tweaked with the stamina changes; getting up quickly, jumping, and other such things use too much stamina for how valuable it is as a resource now. I've always been a trot-to-travel player, so walking everywhere is very normal for me. Most of my time is spent walking places, finding things to hunt, and then deciding if the hunt is winnable with minimal stamina loss or at least before I run out. I haven't really had issues with performance, aside from dawn and dusk tanking my frames momentarily, so that hasn't been an issue for me either. But, take this with a grain of salt, because I absolutely love difficult games. I'm a sucker for punishment and the harder it is, the more entertained I am in trying to succeed at it. At the end of the day, The Isle is meant to be a hardcore survival game. Generally survival games require careful resource management. In The Isle, those resources are diets, food, water, and now stamina. I personally like these ridiculously hard things, I don't mind dying of starvation and what not when I'm not carefully managing things. But I dislike it when I've managed as well as I can, but still failed. My only real issues are with bugs, namely the rubberbanding that occurs during most fights and occasionally causes unfair hits.
@@dinometta I dont know why, but for me it’s the god forsaken lakes… especially when you are higher up and can see the entire lake plus a nice view, my frames immediately plummet to 20-40fps; drives me absolutely nuts, I never had that issue on spira due to, well.. the lack of lakes ig. But aside from the frames, they never plummet too bad to the point where it’s unplayable (at least in my opinion). Like you had stated, it’s the rubber banding that is slowly wearing me down and making me realize that I’m not just playing a difficult survival game; the game is just bad in its current state. For a game that is more PvP than PvE oriented this is very much so a problem, not just for its dedicated playerbase, but for the new players most of all; if they even do care about growing their playerbase that is.. not a bash, I just feel like they are ok with being a small game with a small dev team indefinitely. Thank you for your input, that’s one thing I always appreciate about your content!
@@jordonmartin8034 Yeah, the rubberbanding is absolutely the bane of the update. I believe they had a fix for it on UE4 because it used to happen there. But they've not fixed it yet on UE5. Hopefully it will be soon enough, but I know that decreasing your render distance does decrease how often it happens a bit. Anyway, I'm glad you dropped in and you enjoy my content!

thats fair, sometimes thats all you can ask for.. certainly inspired me to try to the isle again. been hard avoiding it with food/water drain being as it is combined with food moving all about. just been frustrating. but heres to another shot :P
I hate that a herbi's first instinct is to chase down a carnivore after a failed hunt or when one of their herd dies.
Same! Carnivores have gotta eat. They don't have the luxury of "oh just graze if you're hungry"
If I'm hunting, it's because I need food!
Very enjoyable gameplay, u are very skilled, btw your voice is cute
Lowkey creep comment...
Great content!
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed!
watching this while i starve my fresh adult cera stuck between rocks, as the video ended my cera died too lul.
Oof, big rip
Cera the staple carnivore
Cera is pretty great!
damn u got a good narrative forsight. that 4k sub count is offensive imo
I feel like people only point out things they dislike if the content creator theyre watching agrees and points it out, for example the overaggro tenos, if there was a video on teno fight compilations most fights that were a 2v2 would either have the herbi side killing the carnis 1 by 1 (not letting the solo eat their fallen comrade) or killing the carnivore even though it had got its kill, such as a herbis packmate. Same goes for carnivores, alot of times they will kill more than 1 creature even though they had enough food, of course these examples arent exactly accurate or 100% what happens but hope you get the point, and tbh I wish everyone played like this instead of just killing everything and getting mad at kos or whatever or, on vice versa making fun of others for explaining why they hate baby killers (which happened in PoT’s discord general chat recently, I hated looking at the messages lol)
I mean, overall people are going to play the game how they want to play. There will always be hyper aggressive players, there will always be friendly players as well. Some days it feels like one or the other happens more often. My poor cerato just kept running into the aggressive tenos. But when I played teno in my previous video I only came across one bloodthirsty teno and I didn't include them because I didn't get involved in their "hunt"
It's why I enjoy the isle though, every day is a different experience. I never know what mixed bag of players in gonna get
@@dinometta true, I guess that makes sense. However the main reason I made this comment was because idk if its just my luck or what or maybe just not playing the game much myself lol but from my experience most hunts would have to become a slaughter for either party to win due to not trusting eachother to stop the engagement 🤣 HOWEVER I say that lol I have some carno content on my channel of just pure gameplay and there were actually some very chill teno players, if I left them alone they pretty much ignored me 🤣 love seeing those players
@@dtbrex08 I've had a few hunts where they've backed off and allowed me my hard earned meal. And a lot where they don't xD
It just depends on who you face.
I do find that when I'm just looking for food, making the kill and then running away out of sight sometimes results in a better disengagement.
Slightly higher risk of someone else eating my food, but usually settles the herd better
@@dinometta makes sense 🤣
Not all teno are like this I love play teno but I don't play like that 😢😢..
Love love your videos ❤❤❤❤
I know! I've run with a lot of very chill tenos! Someone must have spit in their cereal while I was running cerato x]
Thank you though! I'm glad you enjoyed!
I was wondering if cerato could solo! I'm gonna grow one now, then :D
Cerato is great solo! Good luck!!
awsome vid
Ohh yeee the tenos
I can't blame them sometimes haha! I get pretty bored on herbivores sometimes, waiting for something to come along and hunt me
My problem with this game is that herbis feel the need to be "heroes" and butt into fights. I understand herbis in real life kill and sometimes for no reason; but these are humans looking to pick fights.
W channel
Are the blood splats on the dinosaurs new?
Yeah, I think they've been toned down though. I haven't noticed them as dramatically anymore
How many times did Bjorn die in the video😂
So many(plus a few off screen deaths) x'D
based video as always metta
🗿
Indeed thank you pigeon!
@@dinometta i always enjoy the videos 😄
I love ur vids metta
Thank you!
Well, i guess that is one of the reasons I dont play on officials and no rules servers
How did the teno come back all fully grown? Is it that kind of server?
There was a full herd, his friend came to avenge him
This happened on NA2
Ohh. Well damn. Still, your PvP skills are amazing! I wish I were this good!
@@naniengine thank you! It has taken a lot of practice but I feel like I'm finally starting to get somewhere with my pvp skills!
I like your vids gg xD
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!
It makes sense for Tenos to be aggressive towards predators because its one less predator they have to worry about later.
If you say so. But teno's entire fighting kit is defensive. They're not intended to chase down carnivores and kill them, and doing so weakens then overall because then they have to regain their stamina they wasted running after something that never wanted to fight in the first place.
@dinometta I think there are 2 ways to address the issue if developers were inclined to see aggressive herbies as a problem. (I personally think you have either aggressive prey or mixpacking and I'd rather the aggressive 7 days a week)
You could A) nerf every herbivore capable of being aggressive. Or B) you can buff the blood trail/tracking so that while you can Deathmatch for no reason other predators will have a significantly easier time of picking up your train and killing you after the fight.
Blood trails should be based on the size of the animal and how much damage % they have sustained. A Teno ate 25% hp should make a pretty big mess. Should look like a crime scene from SAW afterwards. That way players will think twice on fighting if they don't need to.
@@stryfegamingonline7583In short, roads of blood should have a buff and even be able to smell and see the exact location of the bleeding animal if you are close enough since it would be realistic
@BaldianOfIbelin they can have breakpoints like 75%, 50%, 25% for how much trail is left but if another predator gets close it should be pretty obvious something big is bleeding bad.
Discourages Deathmatching, helps weaken alphas, lowers how often people complain about AI spawns, ups the realism.... win win win win.
@@stryfegamingonline7583 And depending on the speed at which you move is the abundance of the blood trail (Running leaves more blood while walking crouched leaves less) and certain dinosaurs like the Cerato can identify more blood, more precision, and longer distances but for example the Dilophosaurus is bad at chasing with blood to give a chance to escape from him at night
Metta, do you have any idea when they are gonna (probably) buff the stamina system? Its really unbearable for me... 😫
Its been 3 weeks (probably?) since i last playing the isle, been playing Path of Titans in the time being. I don't really like those janky combat of PoT though, but at least it still better than playing the Isle for right now 😣
Honestly, I doubt they'll buff it any time soon. It takes some getting used to, but I have honestly found it adds an entirely new level to combat and survival.
There are some changes i'd like to see(dragging that baby stego carcass for example took an out of pocket amount of stamina and ptera is just.... Painful at times) but for the most part I've adapted to the changes.
@@dinometta i can't adapt at all 😆. The thing is, i can only play games for probably 5-6 hours a week, and with this changes, the game feels so slow paced.
Usually i can grow any dino in one sessions of my playtime and still having good gameplay (in combat and survival aspects), but for right now i can't, because mostly you need to z walk or sprint for small period of time to conserve your stams, and the gateway is so much bigger than spiro. Most of my gameplay is about worrying about my stams, not to mention the nightvision is so awful to some species 😫
@@temujinchannel8584 Gotta learn to casually trot when traveling! It's slower, sure, but then when you do reach a migration zone or get into a fight you'll have full stamina to dive in!
Then again, I've always been a trot-to-travel player, so I haven't had to change much outside of my fighting style xD
For someone with ADHD the new stam-system is really horrible. I can't hold up my attention span for the slow gameplay now. It is especially difficult since my main dino is Ptera aka the sitting simulator😅😭
@@July-nj5sn i feel you. Im an Omni main, so i know how it feels like struggling with the stamina in this new changes 😆.
The only thing that bothers me is that i can't seems to enjoy the game now, because everything i do took time, the game feels so slow, and not to mention we got bad nightvisions, so i just afk when the sun goes down. I mostly can only play the Isle for about 1 to 2 hours a day, so you know why i can't enjoy playing this game anymore. Nothing to do at night, you need to walk while traveling around the huge map, it all takes time.
Like you said, now it feels like dino walking simulator 😆
mm yummy rock leftovers
If you lick the rock hard enough you will gain sustenance!
epic
They should really nerf tenons stam .
@@lemuelpierre2808 To an extent, yes. Though teno relies on stam for every attack except its bite, so if it gets nerfed too much, they'll really struggle
Juvi= allways Cute ^^
hello, Metta! I was wondering if i could get your opinion on the latest gateway update? Me personally, I absolutely DESPISE it. Aside from the fact that I was hoping to have received the new playables in this update, the game's performance is at an all time low; and I feel like I am playing a resting/starving simulator. I can't help it, I've tried for the past 2 weeks to give these changes a chance but even after 1200 hours of dedication to EVRIMA alone, I am beginning to feel myself get burnt out on being excited about updates and hoping for things that are not going to happen, such as the games optimization. I dont know, it just feels like we've taken a giant leap backwards at this point. Maybe its just my pessimistic attitude, or maybe i just need to wait for things to settle; but as of right at this very moment, the game is not enjoyable to me. PvP feels worst than it ever did in the past in terms of performance, and don't even get me started on the stam changes. Feel free to be brutally objective if you feel the opposite, maybe you can convince me that this is as good for the game's health as the devs claim!
EDIT: 20:00 not to be the nerd that tries to tell a veteran how to play the game, and im sure you are already aware of this.. but i noticed you kept pulling the organs out for bjorn before he got there.. Were you aware that the organs go rotten faster than the body itself if they are outside the body? Love your videos btw!❤❤
Truth be told.... I actually love the changes. Some things still need to be tweaked with the stamina changes; getting up quickly, jumping, and other such things use too much stamina for how valuable it is as a resource now. I've always been a trot-to-travel player, so walking everywhere is very normal for me. Most of my time is spent walking places, finding things to hunt, and then deciding if the hunt is winnable with minimal stamina loss or at least before I run out.
I haven't really had issues with performance, aside from dawn and dusk tanking my frames momentarily, so that hasn't been an issue for me either.
But, take this with a grain of salt, because I absolutely love difficult games. I'm a sucker for punishment and the harder it is, the more entertained I am in trying to succeed at it.
At the end of the day, The Isle is meant to be a hardcore survival game. Generally survival games require careful resource management. In The Isle, those resources are diets, food, water, and now stamina. I personally like these ridiculously hard things, I don't mind dying of starvation and what not when I'm not carefully managing things. But I dislike it when I've managed as well as I can, but still failed.
My only real issues are with bugs, namely the rubberbanding that occurs during most fights and occasionally causes unfair hits.
@@dinometta I dont know why, but for me it’s the god forsaken lakes… especially when you are higher up and can see the entire lake plus a nice view, my frames immediately plummet to 20-40fps; drives me absolutely nuts, I never had that issue on spira due to, well.. the lack of lakes ig. But aside from the frames, they never plummet too bad to the point where it’s unplayable (at least in my opinion). Like you had stated, it’s the rubber banding that is slowly wearing me down and making me realize that I’m not just playing a difficult survival game; the game is just bad in its current state. For a game that is more PvP than PvE oriented this is very much so a problem, not just for its dedicated playerbase, but for the new players most of all; if they even do care about growing their playerbase that is.. not a bash, I just feel like they are ok with being a small game with a small dev team indefinitely. Thank you for your input, that’s one thing I always appreciate about your content!
@@jordonmartin8034 Yeah, the rubberbanding is absolutely the bane of the update. I believe they had a fix for it on UE4 because it used to happen there. But they've not fixed it yet on UE5. Hopefully it will be soon enough, but I know that decreasing your render distance does decrease how often it happens a bit.
Anyway, I'm glad you dropped in and you enjoy my content!
tenno players are easily the most annoying people to deal with..
Shocked I’m only just coming upon this content🫢
Welcome! I hope you enjoy your stay!
