In real life, T Rex spent its first 14 years being mid-level (3 tons) and then, in the last few years, fully grown. They should do that with the Apex dinosaurs in the game. That weigh less than 3 tons until exceeding 70% of the growth bar.
That's what a lot of people including myself suggested, I hope they do it that way because it'd actually make them harder to grow by giving mid tiers more time to take one down.

Pretty much all dinos, except for like anky, trike, and perhaps a shant(?), can outrun an apex. But that is if you see them first. But i do agree with you, apexes should be fun to play and non-apex dinos should fair them. People call them overpowered. In some cases they are. Example being broken in legacy where they could easily kill a trike, shant, anky, etc. By just simply riding the tail. In another case, midtiers or lowtiers like utah, allo, cera, etc I could list a whole list. Only because an apex easily kills them or something it makes them OP? Well they do need to live up to the name of Apex, right? All players should know taking on an apex as any smaller dino, that one mess up and you become the food. ^^ Apex fights and hunts are a different story. I'd rather not judge the balance of apexes, since they aren't even out yet on Evrima and we're pretty much asuming their strength based on what devs have said and from what we know from Legacy. lol

@Mamotherium Жыл бұрын
Imo one of the only things that's somewhat positive about introducing both trike and rex early on community servers is to kill the apex hype early on. See it like this: trike and rex is introduced early for community servers, updates after this only introduce more medium to small tier dinosaurs, and when they finally decide to introduce more apexes like shant and giga along with rex and trike on officials after the roster is more fleshed out, the apex hype won't be as strong as rather than if rex and trike wasn't introduced early on. The hype of the introduction of the new apexes later on would be significantly less than if the devs didn't introduce rex and trike early on, it would be like "Oh cool, a new apex with a different niche to rex/trike." and not "OH MY GOD, THE APEXES HAVE FINALLY ARRIEVED!" Saving both offical and community servers from being overpopulated by apexes in the future when the roster is finally fleshed out, this could also be prevented in another way, either by species limit per server. This however, will only work if AND only if the isle devs are wise in their decision making.
@intotheisland Жыл бұрын
That is true! As we see with the recent update of the 4 new playables. There would be tons of those species running about for at least a week or 2. Releasing apexes all together would have the same effect. So it would be nice to have apexes released more seperately along with perhaps a midtier or low tier. That way there would be two dinos that could balance a lil bit of what players play as.

The best way to balance apexes is to simply have obvious downsides with being a large and powerful creature similar to the downsides of playing a small agile creature. Making apexes trade speed and stamina for power and health already allowing half of the roster the advantage of just simply running away! Making apexes have to go for slower targets which means and apex’s success now entirely relies on there own combat abilities. And to expand on the diet idea proposed in this video! Similar to how gallis top speed is dependent on how many of its hexagons are filled the same will be applied with apexes we’re there special abilities are less effective with a good or great diet only being at full capability with a perfect diet. And there speed and stamina regen will also suffer with diets less than perfect. Though to give even more of and insensitive to hunt other players apexes should be given a “buff” if they consume the organs of creatures on there diet. This buff will basically be slower diet drain for whatever diet that organ held. This allows apexes to not have a entirely brutal time throughout there play through but still encourages them to get into life ending confrontations others don’t need to take. Now I know people say apexes should be cannibals! Tho I believe this shouldn’t be for every apex as mirror match ups can be some of the more easier fights in evirma which allows more easier meals for apexes. But I feel apexes should feel they should have other reasons to kill there own kind and this should be for territory and food! A apex max food should be high enough and there hunger drain should be quick enough we’re more than two apexes are not sustainable. As if a group of 4 Rexes want to work they would have to constantly hunt creatures the size of camara to comfortably live in a group otherwise the whole group ends up starving due to having to share with 3 other of there own species. Anyways this is my idea for how apexes should be feel free to say whatever u want just don’t be and ass.

@intotheisland Жыл бұрын
This is also something I've wanted to see. For both carnivores and herbis that is. For herbs there are certain spots that say produces all the diets they need in one place, or even a certain plant that grants them all the diets. One herd may reside there, or even one herbivore. Since some herbs are just naturally born to be territorial over valuable resources. When another herbivore comes along be it a herd or a solo, idk how it would be done but some sort of a duel. It could be to the death but would be better for the losing one to be chased off. As for the carnivores, they could have somewhat the same spots as the herb territory. The herbs have their valuable plants to be with, meanwhile the carnivores have them. Doesn't need to be directly on top of them, but ofc rather an area around them. As for the fight, it will mostly be the same, but ofc it will most likely lead to death unless the losing one manages to escape. Or if the players themselves choose this fight is over by letting the other go. Would really love for this to be added somewhere in the future. Would give players more things to do ^^

Quite simple but would be effective since stamina is used for several things. So sure, you could safely grow in a bush or rock, but when you become adult and inevitably face enemy players, you would struggle with the limited stamina and be naturally targeted more often. The problem would be finding an amount of time that feels fair, you shouldn't be punished for taking a break to brew some coffee or get some food irl, but if it takes too long the effects would be negligible.

I agree with how you think apexes should be like in evrima but honestly I don't understand why people reacted the way they did when the devs said apexes would be stronger in evrima. I mean, legacy apexes were kinda pathetic, mostly because pretty much every server took away their ability to fight back against anything that got behind them by taking away their ability to turn around and made the smallest carnivore in game the best thing at taking them down solo, but also apexes were quite easy to avoid too, I used to main Allo in legacy and all I had to do in order to not get killed by an apex was to pay attention to my surroundings and run away when I see one coming towards me in the distance, small and mid tiers could both outrun and outstam them so it was practically never a problem.
@intotheisland Жыл бұрын
Totally agree here. The moment people found a way to deal with em, was to pretty much do the tail riding. Ofc, I did that too. Only apex that pretty much could counter it would be spino due to the turning radius. But yes, apexes are indeed easy to run from as any small tiers or mids. Pay attention, remove yourself from the situation and your dino will still be alive. I do understand people wanna hunt apexes and all, but in my opinion it shouldn't be easy to do so. One slip up and ur dead. = Consequences for an attempt to kill an apex. But with good teamwork and good individual skill, I do see that some midtiers can take on an apex. If that sort of realistic gameplay aint to the taste, I would suggest playing Path of titans. You wont die instantly as anything smaller than an apex and you can heal up pretty fast.

Tbh, apexes should have a clear star buff between them and mid tiers. If you look at the sizes you can see that, tyrannosaurus weighed 8.8-10 tons. Allosaurus weighed 1.6 tons. In no world should even 2 allos be comparable. I feel like apexes should be much stronger, but they should also have to struggle way more, for instance there could be the diet system like you said, or a sort of quest system exclusive for apexes that requires them to do things to stay healthy. Also, a territory mechanic could work. Imagine a tyrannosaurus as an adult, it needs a territory so it's food and water requirements can be met, so the player will get buffs for finding shelter and patrolling their Territory, but they will also be challenged with fighting rival apexes and hunting. Also, the main reason apexes are quite a bit stronger than mid tiers is because most games don't add sub-apexes, which are the actual in between. Am example of this would be, rex(apex, 8-10 tons), tarbosaurus(sub apex 2-4 tons), and gorgosaurus(mid 1-2tons). But most games usually cut out the middle guy and lable the mid tier as a sub apex

I think a better solution COULD be a locked stomach mechanic that, if you have 3 FULL neuts (any3) you become "well fed" and your stomach has a cool down before it begins to drain. This obviously won't stop KOSers, but can anything really stop them? It could be that until all 3 of your neuts (OR at least one) to drain to

I was able to grow rexes to full within like 20 hours of playing the game. It wasn't much or a challenge and once I was full grown nothing beside another rex or another apex was even remotely a threat.

Of course, playing as a fully grown tyrannosaurus definitely feels good, but the isle already have a very wide variety of carnivores, very diversified, putting a dinosaur to "rule above all" would devalue thier characteristics a lot, cerato for an example, its made to be a tanky scavenger with a powerful bite, thats what differs it from carno and why people would prefer playing as one instead of the other, but having in mind that players tend to prefer carnivores "kind of overpopulated with them" than herbivores and specially the bigger, "cooler" ones, why would someone prefer a mid or small tier carnivore over an apex? I can already see the map full of dead rex juveniles that dont give up on trying the dino because its iconic and all. All the carnivore overpopulation isn't very healthy, the game doesn't have a stabilished ecosystem to put carnivores everywhere and hope it will be realistic.

Great video by the way. Here's some ideas I have in case anyone has the spare time to read. 1. Sicknesses by injury. Sicknesses could be applied to you if you were badly hurt in battle. As the sickness progresses you will look sicker, sicker to the point anyone will see you're too weak to fight off a group of allos for example. This would allow certain grouped dinosaurs to be able to take down bigger opponents depending on how weak and skilled they are are compared to the sick victim. This would make grouping as apexes more important than ever, because if you're alone and you get sick you will have to tend to it on your own and will be unprotected while resting somewhere alone. This would also force apexes whom are alone to rather steal food from others rather than hunt if they are alone as injury and sickness is greater alone since you take all the hits. But a group of Apexes would be almost forced to hunt for food as there's too little to scavenge for all of them which could become a rivalry later on. Also it would force people being more afraid of taking damage rather than just standing still and tanking it all as sickness would be dangerous. 2. "Dueling" + "Leader Role + Ranks". Most animals of the same species in the animal kingdom fight and usually they don't fight to the death but usually fight for mating rights or just to see who is the strongest in the group or for leadership. We know Triceratops did this, we believe ankylosaurus did this and I feel like this should be implemented into the game. This is how it could work. Lets say you have a leader role in a herd/pack. This leader role would give you a buff and anyone near you will be slightly buffed which would make them want to follow you. Wether if you are in a group or not you can be challenged to a duel of the same species, this will never lead to death, but can lead to severe injury/sickness and yielding is always optional as it will make you immune to damage for a couple seconds from that person after the duel is done. Of course you can always decline except if you are the leader role of a herd/pack. If the leader wins the leader will get a healing buff and keeps to be a leader. New or Old leader can choose mate (Male or female) to share bond with (Share buff with). If the leader loses they will lose the buffs and be banished from the herd/pack which is the risk of being a leader and not being a none-leader. If you are an ex-leader who was banished from the herd before, you have to choose to fight another herds/pack leadership or just join them as a nobody and fight your way up the ranks. If the leader is targetted and killed, everyone will be weakened due to no new leadership and the buff is gone. Maybe buffs given wont be needed, but I feel like no one would challenge the leader if the only reason to become the leader was for the sake of the role name. So that's why I want it to have a certain buff : ) Anyways, that's it. I would love Dueling in the game and I would love herbivore apexes to be more action than just fighting carnivores as I prefer herbivores over carnivores :) s

Great video! I agree, I think diets will be the answer to a lot of issues when it comes to 'balance' in the game. Ideally I believe the balance should come from stuff that makes more sense naturally. Like your point with ambush in legacy giving apexes the edge at close distance. This is a tool apexes had to secure a hunt and without it, they might not be able to hunt anything effectively. The counter play comes before you get in range of an ambush, not after. You balance it by making the skill the awareness of the player. Getting into ambush range of an apex should mean almost certain death, if an apex takes the time and strategy to ease its way that close, it has earned the kill and on the other hand if you are the player being ambushed and YOU allowed this to go unnoticed then that is the skill check on your side. I do like the idea of the bigger guys getting more harsh penalties with diets. Id also like to see some mechanic that forced apexes to fight or move from each other. Like more than two rexes in an area would cause it stress that would effect its stats over time so you have to either engage and fight the other apex or leave the area. This type of mechanic could be applied to other tier levels as well to help stop the overpacking / mix packing in general. This stress 'meter' would have a slow start but after a certain amount of time have a big ramp on stats effected and the timer would have an internal cooldown so if you left that area and went to another area with the same overpacked environment it would pick right back up. This would also combat players trying to game the system by leaving for a short time and coming back to the group. Again, great video as always, love these discussions!

I like it. I think having drastic growth speed changes depending on diet quality is the way to go, so an apex player might go through spurts of rapid growth separated by times of very slow growth, or they might grow in 4 hours if they can maintain a perfect diet, or they might grow in 10 hours if they have a really hard time, or they could neglect their diet and hardly grow at all. Some nutrients could be particularly difficult for adults to obtain, but crucial for development of young individuals, so young apexes need to be proactive in completing their diet, even those with parents who would otherwise carry them into adulthood. Also, apexes gotta eat a lot, so living in an apex pack brings with it the risk of starvation.

I think that you are totally right about the high demands of an apex tier. I agree with you because points you ve said in the vide would also stop the experience of growing the apex dino from being a bush simulator where you need to simply sit in one place for 6 hrs like it was in legacy. Also i don t see why devs want to make the apexes even more overpowered, imo it will break whole ecosystem if every dino fanboy will be able to simply grow apex without any effort. Im seriously tired of seeing rex herds running around killing everything on their path like in legacy. Personally i think you did an amazing job on this video and devs should thrully listen to your advice instead of blocking you on official discord serv.

My main hope is that if they do add rex and trike they add a bunch of other large tier dinos prior not only to feed the rex in particular so that trike players aren't CONSTANTLY being harrassed by rex players, but also so that they don't have the stego problem currently in the game. Stego even in legacy was a very high tier dino ( though in legacy it was also stupidly squishy so could die to most competant players ) but having it being one of the first dinos added in envrima, a game that currently consists of almost entirely small tiers ( carno in legacy was my fav dino to play but it was definitely only a mid tier at best, cerato just barely qualifying as mid tier ) makes it stupidly unbalanced. Deino are strong as hell but if the deino leaves its environment to hunt the stego it will absolutely die. The main threat to a stego is a deino pair while swimming, or his own incompetance. I really hope they add bigger herbivores like multiple different ceratopsians and parasaurs and of course carnivores to hunt them like allo ect before they add freaking rex ( and trike because that would just be Stego Problem, but again )

So I have another idea for balancing instead of limiting players. What I propose are carnivores that bridge the mid teir and apex predators with i higher pack limit. A few ideas for said bridge would be sourofaganax, torvosaurus, tarbosaurus, and siats. And give theses bridge Dino’s a larger pack limit. As well as the same thing for herbivores this way it’s more balanced in stuff can still contest with the larger apex’s but still be easier to sustain and grow.

I wouldn't mind diet being a more demanding things for apexes in Evrima, would make it more interesting. But also, instead of just boosting all of their stats, maybe boost some, while nerfing other stats. Hypo carnos can be maybe be faster, but less strong, or reverse it, so slower, but faster. Same with the other dinos that can be apexes, stronger, but slower, faster or slower, whichever fits their unique theme.

@BradVader Жыл бұрын
I agree with your thesis, but the balance issue should be very simple overall. Apexes are called apexes for a reason. A Nile crocodile is the apex of the savannahs for a particular reason and the same should work for a Rex.. Just as you stated, they are at the top of the food chain with no natural predators. When reaching adulthood there is no reason why it should be killed by something smaller than them; a problem legacy severely suffered from. An adult Rex could be killed by almost anything smaller than it if the player had a high enough skill level. A raptor should not have the capability of hunting and killing an apex carnivore but they did, concluding that legacy apexes were reduced to nothing but giant meat sticks for those players without the skill level to play them... They NEED to be OP and almost unkillable in Evrima. To balance apexes like Rex and Trike, their population should be severely limited to about 5% of the server per apex species. That may seem unfair to most players, but it could potentially save the ecosystem by not allowing every player to be an apex. That's just my opinion though.
@bigsmokes2708 Жыл бұрын
I like your idea… but not the player reduction idea, because honestly, it takes so long to grow, and for the majority of your childhood as a Rex you are a scrawny little reptile that barely can fight off any mid teirs. So I think the difficulty to grow alone should balance out populations. Especially with the new nutrients system, AFK growing is essentially gone. So not only as a baby Rex do you need to avoid getting murked, you also need to find good food to grow.

It should be super long to grow an Apex. Something like 100 hours plus ... so only someone who is super skilled and patient could grow one. Also having access to Apex should require the player to have grown all beasts of the game to the adult stage. Briefly, having access to APEX should not be available to everyone. If not, let's see the server being just a bunch of TRex fighting each other.

10:50 Only change I would make is with the slightly change their stats part, speed should be decreased more than strength, and if they ever add a hypothermia (Hypo=cold) and hyperthermia system (Hyper=hot) the apexes should be more vulnerable to hyper, because of how increasing size heats up the body through getting closer to critical mass. Expanding on that, too little food and diet would make hypothermia worse, since there's no fat stores and the body is not dense with vitamins and minerals, etc. Also, 1 000 000% agree diet should have worse effects than it already does.

Large dinos dont need to be balanced against mid tiers and low tiers. They only need to be balanced against other apexs in combat. Any dino that was a mid tier or lower would turn tail and run against any apex. They shouldn't stand a chance vs other apexs unless the mid tier or low tier has a special or unique ability that could give it a slight chance to bring a apex down or catching a apex when it's young, but regardless it shouldn't be balanced so that mid tiers or small tiers can fight a apex. The only balancing that's needed is the apex vs apex fights that show true skill expression and mastery on the apex your playing. Also one big issues is just having a bigger variety of apexs instead of just 2. If there's only 2 apexs everyone will just be the same thing trike or rex but with more apexs the dynamics will be way more fun when there's spinos gigas and many more big boys that will be filling the world and fighting each other. Brings more to the game and is better all around. If you go mid tier or lower just always know you are making the choice that you won't be able to fight a apex, just like you know as a denio that you can't beat a stego or run on land fast, accept the gives and takes on the dino and tier you choose to play 😊

I usually agree with you, but 8 don't think apexes are too busted, not when 6-10 utahs can kill one, I personally think there is a better solution to stop everyone and their mom from playing it, make their growth insane, let them be broken, but I say if a player is wondering why allo can't body a rex, well weight+bite force + size. No real-life carnivore hunts other carnivorous of greater size, if there is its probably not comment, because for most animals they don't risk their life the wat players do. I actually think apexes are a bit under powered, I grow dilos and utahs in under 2 hrs, and I get to kill an 8+ hour growth animal? If I die I say "oh well" But good video either way, and no I'm not a apex main, if anything I enjoy troodon the most Edit: I actually wrote this comment like half way through the video, but i agree with your points at the end, i don't think they're over powered, just make them harder to get to "apex" status and make their diet very based on their gameplay, good diet etc will make you a better player.

Should have a specific population capacity for spawned and another for natural born for each species, giving a reward for being hatched from preexisted players and adding a vital layer to the balancing of species, apexes have a max population capacity of 5 to 10 at a time between natural and spawned with the carnivores never exceeding 8. That great reduction in population capacity combined with your ideas for killing off most players through skill required diets and intelligence at the lower growth stages would reduce apexes to mythical level appearance frequency compared to even the next best of their species grouping which matches their full grown power perfectly.

Chief's kiss, to grow an apex you must hide from all carnivores and other apexes, most deadly creatures in the game. If you really want to make people suffer, you can make that apexes only grow with all 3 diets, which'll both make them risk for food and get killed and also hunt other apexes for fast nutrients.

I want the community to submit this idea to the devs except for the food drain. As apexes are big, you should be able to be satiate enough time to nest, and all (which is another feature of the game that will demand time and skills). Large predators come to eat preys of their stomac size so rewarding that would prevent killing on sight everything that moves to keep your hunger at a stable level. People that would KoS will KoS anyway so... But i don't want a nervous killing machine eaten by time. We'll have elders for that ! I mean, it should be hard to grow them and it should be strategic and smart to know how to ambush, how to defend and how to hunt with them but it also should be rewarding so the more soft part of the game as nesting would not be forgotten neither. Balancing apexes by getting them more vulnerable to weather as rain, heatwaves, sandstorms and natural diseases would be super interesting too and could help to add another way of being part of the foodchain as smalltiers and toptiers being symbiotics. Because, yes, killing everything is not the only rule in the jungle but one of a billions. I'd like to see some small tier and top tier dinosaurs having symbiosis relations, as they don't have use from each others otherwise and could benefits both of that, added to the fact that it will add another part of the survival axis which is cooperation. For example, having a pteranodon or a beipi cleaning teeth of a spinosaurus to prevent it to have tooth problems and cleaning it from a sandstorm. Hypsilophodon helping a trike to remove dirt and moss from it's back. It could gives nutrients to small tiers and benefit to help toptiers being rid of weather consequences like some movement, vision, earing debuffs, maybe, added to the fact they will be useful to play and more fun too. Apexes would be more careful about the weather, maybe getting buffs or debuffs depending of their specificity (a spinosaurus may lower his water drain while raining but will gain moss so they need to find some specific rocks to clean them or small tiers to prevent a disease debuff for example). I think the more you upgrade the tier, the more you'll have environment consequences could be so much better and rewarding instead of basing all the game on the hunger and buffs. What do you think about it ? Except that, i 200% agree and i hope they'll take accountability of that way of thinking. Thanks for your video and for reading my comment if you did !

I feel the straight stat needs are too much. It must be more complex. Say you have a fully grown (10 tonne) rex. It should have the corresponding stats. They should, however, have quite extreme health penalties based on the number of apex’s in the same established territory. So if, as a rex, you establish a territory but then another play has a rex that moves to the same area, you will both become “stressed” and your hunger, thirst and health will drain faster until the conflict is resolved (either one is killed or moves off to another area.) keeps what realism there is and stops mass swarming of apex’s in the same area.
@williamturner7131 Жыл бұрын
Uncertain if anyone will see this, but... If an Apex offers 2 out of 3 or even all 3 diets to medium and small dinosaurs, and the debuffs from an Apex having an imperfect or lackluster diet puts them on a significantly lower level and force them to, basically, forever chase their hunger, then it would give players a significant incentive to not only play aggressively and skillfully as an apex, but for other players in faster growing, smaller dinosaurs to perhaps deny them their growth, for very legitimate gameplay purposes. Which will discourage the majority of players who want to be apex, and only allowing the very best and capable to become Apexes, who will naturally be absolute menaces. Perhaps if Apex predators were also able to scent specific dinosaurs more easily to make it easier for them to hunt, it would enable this much better.
