There have been a lot of questions about me being re-grown after being killed by hackers. As far as I know, regrows are given only under very specific circumstances and should not be expected or requested. I have reported many hackers in the past and will continue to do so in the future, and this was one of the rare times a regrow was offered. I do not and have never expected to be regrown at any point when hackers kill me. It happens in online gaming and the team does what they can to fight the plague. Our admin team does the best they can with the restrictions placed upon them by the developers to prevent admin abuse. Please give them respect and grace as they volunteer their time and energy to the game we love!
No offense to you at all, but the fact that for a youtuber the isle admins will go out of their way to deal with hackers and even regrow you while I've reported multiple hackers over the months and I never hear back from them even when I have video evidence is very telling about what the admins actually care about. If you don't have a backing for a voice you get ignored.
Yep I agree. Dibble is A LOT of fun and Maia will likely be aswell but without real competition its just so unbalanced and boring. Dibble on 2 tons was fine for the current roster, fights still felt in your favor if you knew what you were doing but the attackers still had a good chance on turning the tables. I'll never understand why they decided to upsize it now instead of when actual mid tier "apexes" come out.
Yes, dilo and herra. And tbh diablo was the most recent and only creature to release after them. So imo it hasn’t been that long. Much sooner than some other gaps between releases.
8:32 I think this is seriously my favorite interaction ive seen on the Isle of any video ive watched. The circling, the sizing up, the mutual understanding afterwards- so awesome!!! It feels so natural with the use of the rock and the cerato’s final dodge
A trio of dibbles can take on any group of carnivores, no matter the number right now, I fought a group of 3 with a group of 8 dilos, left with 3. They had perfect teamwork and coordination, and had a triangle formation, it was impossible to break their defense since it was always back into position within a second.
Headphones gotta make this so immersive with all the different calls from the dinosaurs. Me and my son been watching your videos love the way you tell the story.
I honestly think it’ll be either the complete opposite or allo will be suprisingly well balanced. My guess is allo will be super strong but if its not it at least won’t be weak at all is my guess. But 90% its gonna out compete every other carnivore except deino currently.
@ no one ever said allo wasn’t coming before rex to be fair. Rex is most likely coming before since its further in the development process but we don’t know allo could be finished sooner for some reason.
I came across a couple of dibble cannibals 2 weeks ago. I was too small to actually escape, but i was making a good showing in dodging everything. Now everything was going good, but even in the dark, they were finding me everywhere and their hitbox was crazily extended when it came to their sparring stance. While chasing me, more then once, it was like i was caught in a sparring charge and pushed by it despite them both chasing me the entire time, despite myself being over 4 dibble lengths away from the one who did it. That's how I ended up dying, don't know if it was a cheat or if the guy was laggins so much that I was 10 seconds behind on his screen. It was on official and i wasn't a happy camper
@ yeah, i handed the clip to one of the official discord admins, but i dont know if they acted on it. Wish they had a system that lets people know that the cheater was banned, like with rust
I have never once played The Isle or even really thought about or heard much about it. Despite this, however, the Glorious TH-cam Gods gifted me with a great blessing. I was on my many mile long walk home and chanced upon one of your videos. I had been feeling down that day; lonely and dejected and tired. Without any idea what The Isle was and armed only with curiosity I dove into your video (I believe it was the "Why arent there more herbivore players" video, not sure) and found myself enamored. The way you narrate your gameplay with an almost story teller vibe to it combined with your immaculate skill won me over, and I watched several more of your videos on the way home. Since then I have subscribed and watched every single video you've been releasing and even dug into your back log as well. I have found myself looking up The Isle terms to better understand things and learning about the community despite never having played. It has been wonderful to watch your videos, and I sincerely hope you continue to make them!
You are too kind ;u; I am so glad you came across my little channel and gave my videos a chance! Even more glad that they could bring you some entertainment and joy in your travels! I hope they continue to keep you entertained for a long time! I'll keep doing my best to get them out there!
Weirdly dibbles are an apex right now because they running around and killing everyone just out of boredom. And actual carnivores could just follow them not for a figh and hunt but to scavenge bodies which they can't eat. And sometimes it's even worse because they not just kill but also patiently wait till they despawn or at least rot. Literally dogs on the hay.
Dibble just need to be 1,5-2 tons, as it was on release. At this weight they are perfect addition to Isle ecosystem. But now they are just unkillable as stegos.
i feel the goal of making the dibbles 3 tons was to make them a tougher nut to crack when allo, trex, and other heavier hitting carnivores are trying to hunt them, and to make it more likely for their to be scraps left over for ceratos to scavenge. The problem is that allo isn't in yet, and thus cerato has to hunt them himself and, well, he's half their size.
THats why i stay away from official servers, a dibble caught up to me as a dilo. Once I moved on to Petits it was like day and night. No cheaters, mixpackers and gastro removed with 200 slots
I desperately wish petits was an NA server. My ping there is sketchy at best, so I don't play there as often as I'd like. I can only handle so many latency/bad ping hits before I gotta switch back to NA on officials
Yea I agree with a mid tier carnivore,I heard that the allo is coming out soon and I hope it can control the dibbles population, I really hope it has a claw attack that does a equal amount of bleed as a 3 sec Omni pounce
As far as I have seen from the sneak peek animations the devs have shown, allo will definitely have a pretty hefty claw attack thing. I am excited to see what level of chaos allo becomes. But I also hope it releases at the same time as Maia so it does not overrun the servers for months the way dibble has. (Alsoooooo oh my goodness, you are too kind ;-; thank you!)
After a few hours as a full grown diablo, I was so bored I just walked it off a cliff and picked a new dino. Almost nothing would fight me, and the few times I ran into a cerato pack they'd back off after landing a couple knockdown combos. It's a real shame since they have the most fun fighting mechanics in the roster.
We need more moderation (hackers and one day maybe we can solve mixpackers too)... and yes also mid-tiers carnis! :) Great content and narration as always Metta!!!
The admin team does the best they can! But it would definitely be helpful to have more of them around, especially during the "off hours" when most of the hacking issues begin(usually like 12am for me)
Think I agree with what others have said, that the devs shouldnt be making changes in anticipation of another change. They could actually do both at the same time.
yeah atm the only way to really take down a dibble (solo dibble) is either via a BIG Omni group (never happens), big cera group of like 3-5 which are rare but possible to come acrosss. Or ofc a big dilo group during the night... solo carnivore you have 0 fking chance... and imagine when maia comes, cuz it dosen't seem like allo will come with it
8:00 Reabsorption has to be one of the most useful and best quality of life mutations in the game. Going for any body of water makes you a target for Deinos and other dinos alike that prowl the water holes
It's true. I use it on all of my herbivore builds simply because it's so useful. But it's definitely also one of those mutations that makes deino life even more of a struggle right now. We need more semi-aquatics!
@@dinometta they should connect more parts if the map with water, instead of the Water Access - River delta being the only water route. If you spawn in a lake as a being, you're either stuck there, or make a mad dash as a Juvie hoping you don't dehydrate to death or get eaten the moment you get to the next set if water. Spiro had its issues, but I atleast liked the fact you had access to the different areas of the map.
This makes allo an even more needed specimen right now.Cause carno's simply CANNOT kill a dibble then Cera's could kill one but they need to be very skilled and they should be fighting a solo dibble.Well, dilo I have seen some people kill 2 dibbles during day but they weren't adult so that won't count but dilo only has a proper chance during nightime if not...sayonora.
Yup, exactly. Raptors in a pack should also be able to handle dibbles, but unfortunately most of the time they're uncoordinated + the current RNG bucking makes putting significant bleed or damage on bigger animals about impossible
@@dinometta yea if ur playing with friends there is a higher chance(still hard) but if ur playing with randoms its near to impossible to kill a fully grown dibble.
Your content is extremely engaging and interesting, to the point that I've found myself motivated to redownload the isle and grab evrima, and actually have a go at it. The commentary on the meta of the game whilst also keeping it grounded in actual gameplay is a style I've found myself enjoying a lot. So thank you :D
@@zygardegodslayer4750 I'm glad you enjoy! Hopefully you find many hours of fun ahead. Evrima definitely takes some getting used to, but I have yet to find its equal in terms of my personal enjoyment
@@zygardegodslayer4750 haha it's rough starting out for sure! Definitely a bit easier to do once you get the hang of things though! Walk and sniff constantly after spawning. Cerato can eat both rotten food and bones, so those are a good bet to find just about anywhere and head toward. Standing still and sniffing gives you a wider scent range as well to help you find those more distant corpses
While it may be problematic from a gameplay perspective, contemporary predators being unable to safely hunt large adult herbivores is actually quite accurate to how that usually plays out in nature. Only pack hunters commonly go after the big herbivores, because a solo large carnivore is likely to get crippled in the fight such that even if successful, that'd be that animal's last hunt.
Yes, correct. I am hopeful that when the gameplay loop is complete and animals grow to old age and die, it'll make for hunts that are more favorable for certain predators. An old, weak dibble would be a much easier target than a young buck. Right now everyone reaches young buck and stays there until they get bored or die in a massive battle. Having animals of many different ages and strengths in a herd will help people pick their targets more wisely
I’ve heard lots about big Dino’s being in the Isle like Tyranosaurus and Giga(?), but I’m surprised at how nonexistent they are in your videos.Are they not actually in game?
They don't currently exist in the updated branch of the game. Only on legacy branch, which is abandoned by the developers. They'll be added eventually, but it's a work in progress!
Be Dondi Adds mid tier herbivore (stego) Does not add mid tier carnivore Players complain about imbalance Dondi acknowledges Adds another mid tier herbivore (dibble) Doesnt elaborate Leaves What an absolute clown dondi is.
100% agree with ya , diablo and stego are both really fun creatures with fun playstyles (if only they fixed the godawful hitboxes) but we need bigger carnivores extremely badly , i get it maia is cool and all but we really don't need yet another large midtier herbivore when the strongest carnivore we have is cerato , and even it is only so deadly because of the insanely overtuned bile
Maybe torvosaurus, although it isn't talked or mentioned it'd be an interesting smaller tyrannosaur (i think it's a tyrannosaur??) but still big enough to hunt a dibble Could be a higher damage slower alternative to an allo i guess ?? Edit:Torvosaurus wasn't a tyrannosaurid, my mistake
When you we're in south plains sanctuary did you come across a cerato that was sitting and a dibble killed it, I was wondering because I was a cerato baby in southplains after killing a troodon and then getting run over by a dibble lol
holy shit i just picked up the game again after 4 years because of your videos and was playing as a diablo yesterday with tf2engineer, i was not expecting to see them in this vid :D
The tier list went from decent to outright weird, they should have focused on mid tiers and only that for a long time, instead of instantly jumping from mids to fookin Rex and Trike.
I bought the game yesterday because of your and owltimes videos, my first 2 or so hours with the game was me starving to death over and over, about 8 times, it also felt very empty, apparently 70 or so people on the server, i only ever saw about 3 or 4 others. I'm either doing something wrong, or you are just good at weaving a story :)
The game takes some getting used to. Early gameplay is often a lot of starvation unfortunately, especially as a carnivore, at least until you learn the movement patterns of the players themselves. I highly recommend starting off as a herbivore like tenonto for easy access to grazing to avoid starvation, and getting comfortable with the map+the movement of the herbivores. Also, playing on an unofficial server like petits Pieds that has extra server slots can help as well. It's a massive map for how few players the official servers can handle, so it can feel extremely empty at times.
havent been able to play the recent versions because my computer has finally met its end in terms of its ability to meet requirements that games are having nowadays. the game just isn’t reasonably playable for me right now. but it’ll be one of the first ones i come back to once i get my pc upgraded! it quickly became one of my favorite games and i hope i can experience it one day at full release with a computer that can handle all of its beauty. until then, i shall live vicariously through your narrations!
12:50 this speed hacker is very well known. He always chooses a white and black skin. He often plays cera on NA5 with a buddy wearing a green skin. I have never personally seen him play dibble but i know him on cera all to well. He is not skilled and they both attempt to gain your trust by 2 calling then charge biting. At that point your fate is sealed. You can’t run or fight back. At 1 point i thought about installing hacks ONLY to comabt them. Until i realized…its 70 bucks a months and i am not paying that. If u see 2 players 1 black and white on green and they act friendly…run
Oof, I wish there was a way to completely ice hackers out through steam. Banning them only goes so far when they can make a new account and return an hour later
Ive never really understood cannibal herbs. I remember a pack of stegos on the old map just pretending to be friendly and killing any other stegos. I just figured they were salty deino players
10:50 this blue and white carno looks so familiar... i've had to deal with it "stalking" me through highlands as a dibble and attempting to take me out, only to stun itself on its charges and take my horns to its face over and over.. ps.. what a Pesky lil bugger of a carno 👀
Unfortunately, my understanding is that it's like trying to cut off a hydra's head. You yeet one, three more take its place. Once they've got an exploit, they'll keep using it until the devs patch it, but they'll then immediately look for another. It's a constant battle
It's up to the admin who handled the report, the information they have, whether or not they can confirm your growth and that you died to hackers, and other things I'm sure. Most of the time, they don't offer one and I've lost many growths to hackers unfortunately. This time I got extremely lucky and the admin handling the report was able to offer a regrow.
@@Oliwier2137. I just reported as usual. @the official server admins and went back about my business. I neither asked for, or expected a regrow. I had actually logged out entirely and begun editing this video when the admin handling the issue contacted me for further information. That's how it goes a good chunk of the time, I've reported many hackers in the past. Regrows are rare and far between, if at all. Don't expect them honestly, I certainly didn't and still don't in the future
My dibble got facetanked by 2 ceras while with a smaller dibble. We both died hella fast. But like I’ve seen some comments some people hack their stats?? So that would explain why than
So i havent played the isle since my computer died but from what I can see, if you have 3 dibs and comms you could effectively become a strafing, rotating beyblade.
Reabsorption, gastro, and photosynthetic tissue. But honestly I'd forego gastro on dibble and grab either nocturnal, tactile endurance, or hydrodynamic. All help with escaping cannibal dibbles to some extent(unless they're hackers anyway)
@@invasivegrube9983 I'm usually on whichever servers are full honestly. This was on EU3, but I'll also often play NA5, NA4, and petits Pieds. This week I'll either be on CA1 finishing my nested teno growth or petits Pieds finishing my pachy run
Your playthroughs were so much fun I bought the game with my friend. I have no Idea how you manage to put up with this crash test of a game. With RTX4070 I cannot play for longer than 30 without the game crashing on me or there being a server restart. Sometimes I suffer through 25 body line to enter a server just to get a server restart after a minute. Its insane. I regret buying it. Two times crashing servers even killed our dinos. And official servers? It takes three hours to find each other on the damn map.
@@skadi6750 That's the update being pushed to live. Incredibly unfortunate timing. There's not usually so much crashing! They just released the diet update and there's generally severe performance issues initially due to going from a small, controlled testing environment into an open, properly stressed public one. A patch has been released today that -so far- seems to have fixed most of the crashing
So obviously I’m kinda new but.. Doesn’t mixed packs of herbi’s kinda make sense? Like the way various herds of different animals will stay close together on the planes in Africa?
Yes, mixed herds generally do. Most people don't have a problem with herds. It's just when carnivores mix with herbivores or with each other that people tend to get upset!
This was very useful to see your pvp skills since I'm a new player who started out with diablo. Somehow I managed to not die the first time (I actually died the first time cause I wanted to see if there was fall damage lol, because sliding down hills actually didnt do damage, but for some reason did later) and grow fully, but got bullied by a single raptor as a 60% diablo (embarrassing) until some tenos helped me, I understood my skill issue tho (wasting stam + not using alt attacks), but later died to a cera pack of like 4. Just curious, what mutations do you use?
@dinometta Thank you! Also wouldn't nocturnal be better since the poor night vision? (To be slightly buffed when you're at disadvantage). Or like isn't gastronomic better than tactile? I saw that health regen is very slow and this helps a lot, since I saw tactile got also nerfed
@Anthonnnnn it really just depends. I prefer to not move much at night when I can't see well. And when it comes to herbivores, stamina can mean the difference between surviving a hunt and dying. Plus their food drain is slow enough and food is plentiful enough that the likelihood of having an empty enough stomach for gastro healing to actually do anything is pretty low
@@dinometta I agree with the stamina thing, since that's how I got bullied by the raptor (I wasted stamina non stop). But the thing about gastro is that I keep myself at half food usually and stay near food so that I regen fast and easy, but I see your point especially if it's vs packs when you don't really have the time to eat, I'll try your tips thanks!
Once allo gets added things will be a bit more balanced. Raptors need a pack. Carnos need to catch you in the open. Ceras are just corpse pigs. But the Allo. That's the fear of the forrest
@@YormanGina Because I'm careful about where I drink. Pretty miserable to grow for 4 hours just to get one shot by a gator, so I drink only in areas that are shallow or otherwise protected.
I don't think allo will save current situation in the isle, we need more than just ONE mid-sized carnivore, cuz allos gonna be like everywhere, and ppl gonna stop playing on other close-mid-tiers like carno or cerato
Oh no, we most definitely need multiple. Allo is the closest one we're going to get for now, but the sooner the mid tier roster gets filled out, the better
The worst thing is that dibbles go kill evrithing like i usually plat trodoon and they go for me when i cant even harm them and also when im a baby (as a troodon too)
no mid tier carnivores will be able to take on mid tier herbis, and it's gonna drive a lot more players towards playing apex carnivores and make the apex plague much worse in evrima than legacy It's what this dev team does best
Their venom becomes more potent(takes less bites to envenomate a target) and lasts longer at night so you don't have to bite the target as often to keep them in danger
that what happens when everyone told devs 3 ton dibble was good, I've been playing a lot and dibble would do perfectly fine with 2t, jsut make it faster than whatever allo is going to be
That would have been ideal since they felt the need to make dibble so chonky while also reducing carno. Skilled ceratos can deal with them in some cases, but even with the cerato plague there simply weren't many that could stand up to the dibble herds
I have not played The Isle since late Feb/early March 2023. It's been interesting catching up on how things have changed since legacy, but, ummm, am I missing something.... where did all the Trikes and T-Rex's go?
huh, got killed by a cera dibble mix pack in pretty much the exact same spot, and one had the exact same skin as one of your dibbles. wonder if it was the same pair
There have been a lot of questions about me being re-grown after being killed by hackers.
As far as I know, regrows are given only under very specific circumstances and should not be expected or requested. I have reported many hackers in the past and will continue to do so in the future, and this was one of the rare times a regrow was offered.

i could care less of hackers at this time. we need more dinos but i agree
@@daiamonto2517 dont give devs any ideas that will just cause to lag more and do slower updates

@@WindLordVasari Only private servers have enough moderation to stop hackers in my experience.

Haha, aint' that the truth!
The mixed packing on official servers has gotten a little out of control, plus why do we not have a report player button yet you know?
Cant play pvp themed games at all.
The three horsemen of The Isle xD
@@lieu7enan755 cuz the game is 9 years in early access, they don't give a damn about playerbase xDDDD
Trying to face tank a ceratopsian is one of the hunting strategies of all time. Right up there with tail riding a stegosaurus.
Lol best strat!
I agree. Also, tail riding a teno is the best way to go as well! Only the best of players can pull that off!!
Omg finally the people are starting to understand why we need mid tier carnis and how op dibble is rn and Maya will make it even worse
I want to look forward to maia, but it's going to be the same issue that we have with dibble and stego if allo doesn't release alongside it.
Yep I agree. Dibble is A LOT of fun and Maia will likely be aswell but without real competition its just so unbalanced and boring.

I seen Cera squads delete Dible herds. You just got lucky the Cera's you did encounter. Where not skilled and not enough in numbers.
Dibble: Already barely killable and really a powerfantasy for those that play it. Yet hackers still need to buff it more to get anything done.

A trio of dibbles can take on any group of carnivores, no matter the number right now, I fought a group of 3 with a group of 8 dilos, left with 3. They had perfect teamwork and coordination, and had a triangle formation, it was impossible to break their defense since it was always back into position within a second.
Yup, pretty much. I usually try to run solo as the big herbs simply so I'm more vulnerable, but this time it just didn't work out that way
Fr i cant wait till Allo and rexy drops so dibble herds actually have some challenging fights
Kinda like real life with Rhinos, buffalos, Bison, and Elephants.
Headphones gotta make this so immersive with all the different calls from the dinosaurs. Me and my son been watching your videos love the way you tell the story.
I highly recommend watching with headphones!
it is apperintly a game for em best. i however do not got good ones. so im stuck dealing with non optional solutions but ill make do
I remember one of your previous dibble video where you held off a whole mega pack of raptors on their nesting ground by a pond, epic.
@@jsalbano that was such a blast
We need allo
, the world needs him
When the world needed him most... he vanished
My worry for Allo is, how big does he need to be to not just be steamrolled by Dibble and Stego.

I honestly think it’ll be either the complete opposite or allo will be suprisingly well balanced. My guess is allo will be super strong but if its not it at least won’t be weak at all is my guess. But 90% its gonna out compete every other carnivore except deino currently.

Yea I agree with a mid tier carnivore,I heard that the allo is coming out soon and I hope it can control the dibbles population, I really hope it has a claw attack that does a equal amount of bleed as a 3 sec Omni pounce
As far as I have seen from the sneak peek animations the devs have shown, allo will definitely have a pretty hefty claw attack thing. I am excited to see what level of chaos allo becomes. But I also hope it releases at the same time as Maia so it does not overrun the servers for months the way dibble has.
(Alsoooooo oh my goodness, you are too kind ;-; thank you!)
After a few hours as a full grown diablo, I was so bored I just walked it off a cliff and picked a new dino. Almost nothing would fight me, and the few times I ran into a cerato pack they'd back off after landing a couple knockdown combos. It's a real shame since they have the most fun fighting mechanics in the roster.
Yup exactly! I wandered for hours at a time solo and most people took one look and simply walked away. It felt like stego all over again
So that's why I found no food in my migration zone!
I had to trek across the map to find any in a dangerous patrol zone.
At least in the horde test.
Yup, I hope the new patch has fixed it, but the servers there are still dead as can be today
@@dinometta so I assume not
@@DodoTacticsGaming nope, didn't change anything unfortunately. Checked it out today
We need more moderation (hackers and one day maybe we can solve mixpackers too)... and yes also mid-tiers carnis! :)
Great content and narration as always Metta!!!
The admin team does the best they can! But it would definitely be helpful to have more of them around, especially during the "off hours" when most of the hacking issues begin(usually like 12am for me)
@@dinometta in our dc the "ah yes, weekend" is a recurring meme. Always the worse comes out on off-hours and weekend :D
Trex Looking at Diabloceratops Bullying Carno & Cera & Omni & Dilo:- Look how they massacred My Boys!
Such a tragedy
Think I agree with what others have said, that the devs shouldnt be making changes in anticipation of another change. They could actually do both at the same time.
Yeah, I agree. Seems silly to make changes now that only mess with the balance among the current roster
yeah atm the only way to really take down a dibble (solo dibble) is either via a BIG Omni group (never happens), big cera group of like 3-5 which are rare but possible to come acrosss. Or ofc a big dilo group during the night... solo carnivore you have 0 fking chance... and imagine when maia comes, cuz it dosen't seem like allo will come with it
Maia is a mixed bag. On the one hand, it's fast and can stunlock you to death. On the other, most of its attacks do very little damage
8:00 Reabsorption has to be one of the most useful and best quality of life mutations in the game. Going for any body of water makes you a target for Deinos and other dinos alike that prowl the water holes
It's true. I use it on all of my herbivore builds simply because it's so useful. But it's definitely also one of those mutations that makes deino life even more of a struggle right now. We need more semi-aquatics!
@@dinometta they should connect more parts if the map with water, instead of the Water Access - River delta being the only water route. If you spawn in a lake as a being, you're either stuck there, or make a mad dash as a Juvie hoping you don't dehydrate to death or get eaten the moment you get to the next set if water.
Spiro had its issues, but I atleast liked the fact you had access to the different areas of the map.
This video is the definition of why we need allo
This makes allo an even more needed specimen right now.Cause carno's simply CANNOT kill a dibble then Cera's could kill one but they need to be very skilled and they should be fighting a solo dibble.Well, dilo I have seen some people kill 2 dibbles during day but they weren't adult so that won't count but dilo only has a proper chance during nightime if not...sayonora.
Yup, exactly. Raptors in a pack should also be able to handle dibbles, but unfortunately most of the time they're uncoordinated + the current RNG bucking makes putting significant bleed or damage on bigger animals about impossible
@@dinometta yea if ur playing with friends there is a higher chance(still hard) but if ur playing with randoms its near to impossible to kill a fully grown dibble.
Your content is extremely engaging and interesting, to the point that I've found myself motivated to redownload the isle and grab evrima, and actually have a go at it. The commentary on the meta of the game whilst also keeping it grounded in actual gameplay is a style I've found myself enjoying a lot. So thank you :D
@@zygardegodslayer4750 I'm glad you enjoy! Hopefully you find many hours of fun ahead. Evrima definitely takes some getting used to, but I have yet to find its equal in terms of my personal enjoyment
Iiiiii just wandered around until I starved as a cerato, not finding any food at all. I think I have to watch some tutorials lol
@@zygardegodslayer4750 haha it's rough starting out for sure! Definitely a bit easier to do once you get the hang of things though!
Walk and sniff constantly after spawning. Cerato can eat both rotten food and bones, so those are a good bet to find just about anywhere and head toward. Standing still and sniffing gives you a wider scent range as well to help you find those more distant corpses
If I had one wish it would be every hacker in all games have forever diaherra
😂
While it may be problematic from a gameplay perspective, contemporary predators being unable to safely hunt large adult herbivores is actually quite accurate to how that usually plays out in nature. Only pack hunters commonly go after the big herbivores, because a solo large carnivore is likely to get crippled in the fight such that even if successful, that'd be that animal's last hunt.
True but even packs can barely take a diablo right now it seems.
Yes, correct. I am hopeful that when the gameplay loop is complete and animals grow to old age and die, it'll make for hunts that are more favorable for certain predators. An old, weak dibble would be a much easier target than a young buck. Right now everyone reaches young buck and stays there until they get bored or die in a massive battle. Having animals of many different ages and strengths in a herd will help people pick their targets more wisely
@ yeah also true. That’ll be very interesting.
I’ve heard lots about big Dino’s being in the Isle like Tyranosaurus and Giga(?), but I’m surprised at how nonexistent they are in your videos.Are they not actually in game?
They don't currently exist in the updated branch of the game. Only on legacy branch, which is abandoned by the developers. They'll be added eventually, but it's a work in progress!
@@dinomettaAh ok, ty!
Be Dondi
Adds mid tier herbivore (stego)
Does not add mid tier carnivore
Players complain about imbalance
Dondi acknowledges
Adds another mid tier herbivore (dibble)
Doesnt elaborate

What an absolute clown dondi is.
we need something like allo or Torvo, but Dondi is busy with ai spawn changes and other things
Amazing! I love your music selection and amazing narrating voice
@@absolutezero8473 Thank you!
'grats on the 10k 🥳🔥
@@Hunter_17825 thank you!
putting you on in the background while i play the game is the best feeling.
@@POTPachyOTP I'm glad my videos are something you enjoy!
100% agree with ya , diablo and stego are both really fun creatures with fun playstyles (if only they fixed the godawful hitboxes) but we need bigger carnivores extremely badly , i get it maia is cool and all but we really don't need yet another large midtier herbivore when the strongest carnivore we have is cerato , and even it is only so deadly because of the insanely overtuned bile
Yeah, I agree. If we're going to have big herbivores, we need big carnivores
Maybe torvosaurus, although it isn't talked or mentioned it'd be an interesting smaller tyrannosaur (i think it's a tyrannosaur??) but still big enough to hunt a dibble
Could be a higher damage slower alternative to an allo i guess ??
Edit:Torvosaurus wasn't a tyrannosaurid, my mistake
That would be an interesting addition
Always enjoy seeing your videos Metta and GZ on the 10k!
Congratz on 10k!!!! :) greetings from the faaar south side of the planet!
Thank you! And howdy!!
When you we're in south plains sanctuary did you come across a cerato that was sitting and a dibble killed it, I was wondering because I was a cerato baby in southplains after killing a troodon and then getting run over by a dibble lol
@@Oxidinite nah, I ate and fled asap. One more pounce and the troo would have killed me
Thank god for community admins!
For real! I was so disappointed
holy shit i just picked up the game again after 4 years because of your videos and was playing as a diablo yesterday with tf2engineer, i was not expecting to see them in this vid :D
They're super chill!
9:00 that is literally my exact cerato skin that i havent shared with anyone
Me and my boys stole it. Thanks bozo.
@@BattleBro77 you wont get away with it battlebro77
Lol, they're coming for your skins
Don't you love it when herbivores are the the best predators
For real, it's frustrating
Wait, no way. That first cera, I’m almost 99% sure that was me hahah no way.
Haha if so, boop xD
Under 10 minutes squad! Lol almost first time ive been this early to almost any video...
Love your content Metta
Heck yeah! Speed squad!
I had a thought: If a Deno can grab you, you aren't apex.
You're not wrong
clearly we need Rexes or a Giga for a whole day just to mess with people
That would be wild!
The tier list went from decent to outright weird, they should have focused on mid tiers and only that for a long time, instead of instantly jumping from mids to fookin Rex and Trike.
I wholeheartedly agree
Would have been so nice if they went with Minmi, Ava, Kentro, Maia, Rugops, Austro, Monolopho, Bary, Allo.
maia, stego, and dibble should not be in the game without something bigger then a carno which is now nerfed as well.
I agree.
@@dinometta yep but the devs are wasting time with spawns again and ai changes
I bought the game yesterday because of your and owltimes videos, my first 2 or so hours with the game was me starving to death over and over, about 8 times, it also felt very empty, apparently 70 or so people on the server, i only ever saw about 3 or 4 others. I'm either doing something wrong, or you are just good at weaving a story :)
Sadly, starving and not seeing anyone for the most time is your typical Isle gameplay, unless you go to hotspots.
The game takes some getting used to. Early gameplay is often a lot of starvation unfortunately, especially as a carnivore, at least until you learn the movement patterns of the players themselves.
I highly recommend starting off as a herbivore like tenonto for easy access to grazing to avoid starvation, and getting comfortable with the map+the movement of the herbivores.
Also, playing on an unofficial server like petits Pieds that has extra server slots can help as well. It's a massive map for how few players the official servers can handle, so it can feel extremely empty at times.
The thing is, if Allosaurs are added, the Cera will need a speed boost or something. Otherwise Cera would be totally useless.
After you died to speed hackers and ad showed up... "Deeeep breaths, cancer is a journey you don't take alone." Its TOO on point
@@POTPachyOTP haha that's a choice there TH-cam!
Only time ill fight a dibble, is in a pack of troodons in a voice call
Ahh in Legacy Sub - Rex most favorite food was Rolling MeatBall - Dibble Dubbli 😂😂😂
Hopefully it'll be similar once rex drops in evrima xD
@dinometta i doubt tbh 😅
Imigine 8-10 Raptor pouncing down Rex
Like Rexes will be a toy for raptors to play with...
Evrima is different to Legacy.
havent been able to play the recent versions because my computer has finally met its end in terms of its ability to meet requirements that games are having nowadays. the game just isn’t reasonably playable for me right now. but it’ll be one of the first ones i come back to once i get my pc upgraded!
it quickly became one of my favorite games and i hope i can experience it one day at full release with a computer that can handle all of its beauty. until then, i shall live vicariously through your narrations!
@@flanjoh It's got so much potential, I look forward to full release and hopefully you can get a new computer soon!
12:50 this speed hacker is very well known. He always chooses a white and black skin. He often plays cera on NA5 with a buddy wearing a green skin. I have never personally seen him play dibble but i know him on cera all to well. He is not skilled and they both attempt to gain your trust by 2 calling then charge biting. At that point your fate is sealed. You can’t run or fight back. At 1 point i thought about installing hacks ONLY to comabt them. Until i realized…its 70 bucks a months and i am not paying that. If u see 2 players 1 black and white on green and they act friendly…run
Oof, I wish there was a way to completely ice hackers out through steam. Banning them only goes so far when they can make a new account and return an hour later
@@dinometta and when they spend 70$ a month on hacks i doubt the 20$ the isle costs is gonna deter them
@raginggecko8963 exactly.
Ive never really understood cannibal herbs. I remember a pack of stegos on the old map just pretending to be friendly and killing any other stegos. I just figured they were salty deino players
@@Mattwiistand A lot of them are players who have died to that species a few too many times. Others are just bored
10:50 this blue and white carno looks so familiar... i've had to deal with it "stalking" me through highlands as a dibble and attempting to take me out, only to stun itself on its charges and take my horns to its face over and over..
ps.. what a Pesky lil bugger of a carno 👀
Lmao very pesky indeed xD
ahh so there are speed hacks... explains the 300kph raptor that jumped me out of the river
Yeah, quite unfortunately
Tf2Engineer is my favourite person to play this game with and against, glad you got to experience it too!
They were a great sport and good support! I had a good time running around with them!
12:57 why does it seem like evrima hackers are so prevalent?? what is easy anti cheat for then??
Unfortunately, my understanding is that it's like trying to cut off a hydra's head. You yeet one, three more take its place. Once they've got an exploit, they'll keep using it until the devs patch it, but they'll then immediately look for another. It's a constant battle
Wow cant believe u didnt have more than 10k considering the quality of vids. Gratz
Slow growth is better than no growth!
Great video! Very enjoyable to watch
@@sherpamcderpa1961 Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
13:17 how did u get the regrow??
It's up to the admin who handled the report, the information they have, whether or not they can confirm your growth and that you died to hackers, and other things I'm sure. Most of the time, they don't offer one and I've lost many growths to hackers unfortunately. This time I got extremely lucky and the admin handling the report was able to offer a regrow.
@@dinomettabut did you make a ticket or wrote in one of the official server chats or DM to the administrator?
@@Oliwier2137. I just reported as usual. @the official server admins and went back about my business. I neither asked for, or expected a regrow. I had actually logged out entirely and begun editing this video when the admin handling the issue contacted me for further information.
That's how it goes a good chunk of the time, I've reported many hackers in the past. Regrows are rare and far between, if at all. Don't expect them honestly, I certainly didn't and still don't in the future
My dibble got facetanked by 2 ceras while with a smaller dibble. We both died hella fast. But like I’ve seen some comments some people hack their stats?? So that would explain why than
@@stormmandjes6817 yeah, there's HP and damage hacks, hitbox hacks, etc. unfortunately you often don't know what's coming until it's too late
So i havent played the isle since my computer died but from what I can see, if you have 3 dibs and comms you could effectively become a strafing, rotating beyblade.
You absolutely can xD I've seen it done
i've really been wanting to try some herbivores! all i play are carnivores but you make herbis look fun
@@lubbylong3842 they can be! Just have to not be part of a massive herd if you want to see some good action
How much time diablo grows?
About 3 hours
What Mutations are you using?
Reabsorption, gastro, and photosynthetic tissue. But honestly I'd forego gastro on dibble and grab either nocturnal, tactile endurance, or hydrodynamic. All help with escaping cannibal dibbles to some extent(unless they're hackers anyway)
@@dinometta thx great video btw
@invasivegrube9983 thank you!
@@dinometta wow thanks for answering can I somehow help in a video , or at least know on which Server you are playing?
@@invasivegrube9983 I'm usually on whichever servers are full honestly. This was on EU3, but I'll also often play NA5, NA4, and petits Pieds. This week I'll either be on CA1 finishing my nested teno growth or petits Pieds finishing my pachy run
Keep up the amazing work i always enjoy watching your videos :)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy them!
just a heads' up, speed hackers are always in highlands for some reason, and they are always running on dibbles
Sounds about right. They love picking the most heavy hitting, OP playables possible
hey one wich server was this cuz i think i might have been that troodon at the start was this on eu1?
This was EU3!
Your playthroughs were so much fun I bought the game with my friend. I have no Idea how you manage to put up with this crash test of a game. With RTX4070 I cannot play for longer than 30 without the game crashing on me or there being a server restart. Sometimes I suffer through 25 body line to enter a server just to get a server restart after a minute. Its insane. I regret buying it. Two times crashing servers even killed our dinos. And official servers? It takes three hours to find each other on the damn map.
@@skadi6750 That's the update being pushed to live. Incredibly unfortunate timing. There's not usually so much crashing! They just released the diet update and there's generally severe performance issues initially due to going from a small, controlled testing environment into an open, properly stressed public one.
A patch has been released today that -so far- seems to have fixed most of the crashing
Cant wait to kick some dibble butt as allo!
Heck yes!!!
when ever that be if they ever get out of this horde test and move on to adding dinos
So obviously I’m kinda new but..
Doesn’t mixed packs of herbi’s kinda make sense?
Like the way various herds of different animals will stay close together on the planes in Africa?
Yes, mixed herds generally do. Most people don't have a problem with herds. It's just when carnivores mix with herbivores or with each other that people tend to get upset!
This was very useful to see your pvp skills since I'm a new player who started out with diablo. Somehow I managed to not die the first time (I actually died the first time cause I wanted to see if there was fall damage lol, because sliding down hills actually didnt do damage, but for some reason did later) and grow fully, but got bullied by a single raptor as a 60% diablo (embarrassing) until some tenos helped me, I understood my skill issue tho (wasting stam + not using alt attacks), but later died to a cera pack of like 4.
Just curious, what mutations do you use?
@@Anthonnnnn on my dibble, I use bleed resistance, photosynthetic tissue, and tactile endurance
@dinometta Thank you! Also wouldn't nocturnal be better since the poor night vision? (To be slightly buffed when you're at disadvantage).
Or like isn't gastronomic better than tactile? I saw that health regen is very slow and this helps a lot, since I saw tactile got also nerfed
@Anthonnnnn it really just depends. I prefer to not move much at night when I can't see well. And when it comes to herbivores, stamina can mean the difference between surviving a hunt and dying. Plus their food drain is slow enough and food is plentiful enough that the likelihood of having an empty enough stomach for gastro healing to actually do anything is pretty low
@@dinometta I agree with the stamina thing, since that's how I got bullied by the raptor (I wasted stamina non stop). But the thing about gastro is that I keep myself at half food usually and stay near food so that I regen fast and easy, but I see your point especially if it's vs packs when you don't really have the time to eat, I'll try your tips thanks!
7:52 straight up humilated his ass
Lol 😂
Love your videos, new subscriber ❤ hope to see you in the isle
I'll definitely be around! Thanks for the sub!
Once allo gets added things will be a bit more balanced. Raptors need a pack. Carnos need to catch you in the open. Ceras are just corpse pigs. But the Allo. That's the fear of the forrest
@@kaniencrone7438 that's my hope anyway!
Is there a reason why there haven't been any croc encounters in your vids? Are they not a thing?
@@YormanGina Because I'm careful about where I drink. Pretty miserable to grow for 4 hours just to get one shot by a gator, so I drink only in areas that are shallow or otherwise protected.
I don't think allo will save current situation in the isle, we need more than just ONE mid-sized carnivore, cuz allos gonna be like everywhere, and ppl gonna stop playing on other close-mid-tiers like carno or cerato
Oh no, we most definitely need multiple. Allo is the closest one we're going to get for now, but the sooner the mid tier roster gets filled out, the better
@18:30 Okay, but Hypsi is still fun without being OP =3
Lol hypsi is a cutie pie
The worst thing is that dibbles go kill evrithing like i usually plat trodoon and they go for me when i cant even harm them and also when im a baby (as a troodon too)
I dislike KOS behavior. No sense in killing tiny babies or solo troodons as something that weighs 3 tons. Just silly
no mid tier carnivores will be able to take on mid tier herbis, and it's gonna drive a lot more players towards playing apex carnivores and make the apex plague much worse in evrima than legacy
It's what this dev team does best
Hopefully at some point they actually take a step back and look at the balance subjectively. But I don't see that happening for a long time
Yesss a new video yayyy
@@dinometta yayyyy
Can you explain what buff the Dilo's get at night? I know they have really good night vision but I am unaware of anything else.
Their venom becomes more potent(takes less bites to envenomate a target) and lasts longer at night so you don't have to bite the target as often to keep them in danger
that what happens when everyone told devs 3 ton dibble was good, I've been playing a lot and dibble would do perfectly fine with 2t, jsut make it faster than whatever allo is going to be
Dibble was already doing great at 1.5 it dropped at originally too. I was surprised they decided to double it
Cant agree more, this game really need a balance in order to make a more realistic environment
Please and thank you!
I was playing for hours today and only met one other dibble with a full server
I ran into six or so just walking from Highlands through West rail and back xD
wake up babe new Metta video dropped
@@mustarduwu :]
Liked, Commented, and Subscri-Dibbled.
xD
They had to release the allo at sape Time than the dibble
That would have been ideal since they felt the need to make dibble so chonky while also reducing carno. Skilled ceratos can deal with them in some cases, but even with the cerato plague there simply weren't many that could stand up to the dibble herds
I have not played The Isle since late Feb/early March 2023. It's been interesting catching up on how things have changed since legacy, but, ummm, am I missing something.... where did all the Trikes and T-Rex's go?
@@Rubicon2305 They're still in production. Red and trike will return next year, by my guess, probably first or second quarter
Hey metta, do you mind telling if you play on officials or unofficials servers?
I mostly run on officials for the wild west atmosphere. But when I do play unofficials, I'm on petits pieds
huh, got killed by a cera dibble mix pack in pretty much the exact same spot, and one had the exact same skin as one of your dibbles. wonder if it was the same pair
The hacking ones?
In my opinion diablo and maia shouldve been delayed until allosaurus was added, or rebuff carno to have the same weight it did before
