My experience with nesting in Evrima has been... Rough. Even as an herbivore, you need to always be on the move for food. Stomachs empty fast, diets drain really quickly too. As a carnivore? Forget it. The drive to find more food all the time is ridiculous, and more often than not there just isn't enough to go around to satisfy even me as a soloist. I often have to go off-diet or cannibalize on a non-cannibal carnivore just to not starve to death. It also seems a lot of the time like I get onto a max pop server and find absolutely no one. Can play for hours and see maybe one player. If you do find any reasonable population center, it's just become a deathmatch. You can try to scavenge off the remains of the fallen but you're liable to be picked off in the process. Food is the biggest issue. It's such a struggle to stay fed, to keep nutrients going just on your own. What's awful is the amount of food it takes to raise babies. Even as hatchlings they take so much out of you when you often can't afford to spare anything. It feels like you're trying to feed four or five adults as just a solo parent or pair. With time to kill so quick in most engagements, I've yet to have a nesting experience with less than an 80% fatality rate. Usually one partner dies over the course of it. I've only had a few babies EVER that made it to adulthood, and none of them ever successfully nested before dying.

I've tried nesting in as a dryo 3 times in evrima and each time within like 5 minutes everyone dies. Each time it was because the parents had to previously defend the nest against compys, and since herbis can't eat/move the corpses, they then rot and a cerato smells it out and comes and kills everyone just in time for the eggs to hatch. Great gameplay.

My biggest issue on nesting is that the focus of the game is so heavy on survival and you’re trying so hard to survive that there’s no time for peace or extra actions. Especially the diet system it’s too focused… 90% of the game your constantly searching for the next meal and if your trying to nest it’s more of a struggle cause you struggle not only to feed yourself but others. If the struggle of survival was maybe taken away or not so heavy to focus on so maybe players had plenty of time to enjoy the game peacefully or ‘stop and smell the roses’ then nesting would be funner.

But really when you’re doing helping them grow now you can hit elder and finish becoming what ever you are.

Honestly I think they should just have all the dinos die of old age eventually, and maybe make some kinda system where you can take one of your own eggs and if you do you'll grow faster or something. That would encourage people to nest even if other people aren't taking them, which in turn would make there be more nests available more frequently, which in turn would end up with more people accepting eggs because those eggs would be ready whenever they get to the character select screen.

I'm suggesting that you should die of age regardless and maybe becoming elder just makes it speed up a little because you get stronger. I just don't think any of them should just grow to adult and then stay alive indefinitely provided they play careful. It would really aid in the realism aspect to know your time is ticking. And as far as taking an egg, it could be difficult, but so is going it alone. You could also prepare for it by getting the other parent full and then die by the nest so they can get organs (obviously it would require making the carnivores capable of cannibalism without negative effects). But then if you start out like that with full diet, you'll grow fast enough to get a solid start. It's mainly the fact that you'll have a group with you though instead of starting fresh again by yourself. Those are just some ideas spitballed though, but there's definitely some options that would make it work well.

I hope devs can improve upon the social aspect of the game through development of the already existing scent system, but also implement a hearing system, overall, adults of a species should be able to distinguish eachother from long distances, herbivores should not be helpless at night, etcetera.

The "hearing" system is your audio system and your ears. Many games of this genre approach this system this way. It's up to the player to learn and recognize the calls in the game. This is appropriate to the spirit of this game and this genre. This genre wants to simulate life as an animal, so creating behaviors in players that simulate an animal listening, learning, and identifying is ideal.

@@madlymode I think they mean adding some variety so you can actually tell the calls of different people of the same species apart. IRL individual animals sound slightly different and can be identified by their calls alone. If there was some kind of way to allow people to customize their calls even slightly, it'd help players differentiate who's where. It'd be really cool because then, if you have an encounter with an cannibal and escape, you can hear their call later and recognize it's probably the cannibal from earlier. Or you can learn the calls your friends usually go with and can recognize from a distance that's (probably) your buddy. Obviously they'd need to fall into some sort of standard tone, but right now theres like two variations of every 1 call and you become earblind to it after a while.

Letting human ears do some work is fine, but we clearly can't do all the work. We already have night vision because dinosaur eyes are clearly better, and we have scent system because our computers can't give us the sense of scent yet, but do you genuinely believe a human could match the cerato in sense of scent capabilities? Clearly, hearing is a medium that is not properly taken advantage of by the developers. They might touch upon it with the arrival of parasauria, but I am worried that any other dinosaur will be stuck with "human level" hearing.@@madlymode

Why i don’t nest: FOOD. Food is the biggest resource issue this game seems to struggle with and has struggled with for years. It’s why people freak out and worry about how long stamina takes to regen, why they fear nesting and adding more mouths to the group, and why some don’t group in the first place. Not to mention cannibalism. It all comes down to the basic issue that food does not last in this game and thankfully AI has finally improved, but the food and water still drain at a fast rate. Every explorative trip you take to see the map, every new friend you add to join you on your adventures, you never know when fun will become a death sentence.

My biggest complaint with Evrima (buggy, neverspawning AI aside), is just the lack of social interaction with other players. Global chat was fun, because you could be on the complete opposite side of the map, and still see what people were up to. I hate that this game keeps trying to isolate you from other players, it's the biggest turn-off from playing often or for long, you just get bored of it? Even predator-prey relationships were more chill before. I miss telling people who managed to best me in combat a GG, and vice-versa. Miss forming cross-species herds, and letting all our offspring socialize, and play, and grow, and migrate together.

I'd agree about having the chat allow certain herbie species talk to eachother, but grouping together and full on global chat are aids. It just doesn't really make any sense for them to group as that'd never happen in reality and it completely ruins the game. Carnivores can't hunt the proper prey if that prey is getting protected by creatures that are too big for it. Tbh people should just find a chatroom if they just wanna do that whole thing where they hop on and sit on global chat talking all the time instead of playing the game. Global chat COULD be a good idea if people used it as intended, but they always just flood it with their bs personal conversations throwing hearts at someone they play with every fking day as if they hadn't played together in months because they desperately want everyone else to see that they have a friend... They ruin it making it impossible to use it the way we're all complaining about wanting it for now because your message is gone after 2 seconds and replaced with more of those annoying personal conversations.

You're right. There is little reason to nest right now without social interaction. Said this before on your channel. I believe mating and nesting should be one of the most important aspects in the game. They should introduce a clan/pack system with easy ways to nest friends and new players in. A genetic up-breeding system system could also make it more interesting. Where people have to find suitable mates by smell etc. And then can improve the genetics of offspring giving them little improving buffs every generation if they mate with the right partner and take good care of their young. This will encourage people to nest and form clans/packs. They can also make chat more immersive by changing the sound and volume the dino makes depending on the type of chat. Where global chat will be broadcasting very loudly. The chat can be kept within one species and maybe players who are death and waiting for an egg.

I think some ways to fix and improve it would be: The ability to look at a nest menu while alive, in the server list, and become an egg while alive (but start with debuffs because you didn't K why S first) Reasoning: Has enough realism, while also being good for gameplay. Spare notes: Upon accepting the egg while alive, the dino will have a heart attack and die, slowly while increasing is DPS exponentially, but still slowly. This is for realism, and there can be a little loading bar next to the egg in the nest menu to represent it'll take a moment. Different stick amounts for different build up nests per species (smaller in general): Reasoning: Realism, better gameplay Spare notes: None Required temperature for eggs being different for different species, and depending on how far away the temp is from the center it will have a higher chance of producing males or females, with the lowest viable temp being guaranteed one type only (same for highest) and the closer to the center the more random it gets. Reasoning: Realism since modern lizards do the same, actual gameplay effects Spare notes: I don't remember which one males female (I think top) and which one makes males (I think bottom) you'd need to google it. Better nest graphics. Right now if you nest in a tree it'll go down below the branch, which is pretty cool depending on the branch actually. But, it should be different amounts of spare depending on the branch type so that it looks good, and so that building roof nests don't look like they caved in underneath. Also, birds get bird nests. Reasoning: Possible hyperminor optimisation, minor improvement to graphics, better stealth nesting (now that's an idea), better graphical QOL when nesting. Very minor stuff, but very appreciated. Spare notes: Might include stealth nesting later, mow what? Screw it we ball More cubby holes, and the return of nesting grounds. A hollow tree, a cavelet, a hollow underneath a tree with roots coming down from the ceiling, dense bushes with only one entrance hitbox, abandoned burrows hidden by moss and rock, side rooms in buildings, mining tunnels, etc. As for nesting grounds, specific patches like near the big center river, which are 'fertile' and will make young grow quicker. Reasoning: Easier nesting and juvie survival, LORE, quality of life, LORE, better graphical quality of life, LORE Spare notes: LORREEEEEEEEEEEEE Also, yeah, we need a better social system. At the very minimum, let some species talk to other species, with a little note saying what they are. Symbiosis, man, symbiosis is a whirl of a thing

I think the problem is that people don't _cooperate with each other,_ and that makes the nesting system useless. MY goal when creating a nest is to increase the size of my pack or herd, and have more members to cooperate with. That way, we can hunt larger targets, or, in the case of a herbivore, defend against larger threats. However, often I find myself being the only parent or pack member that's actually building or maintaining the nest. Furthermore, when the eggs do hatch, the hatchlings are usually absolutely horrible. They either don't follow my commands, they get themselves killed, they kill _each other_ or injure each other for no good reason, or they change their mind about wanting to be this species and ask me to kill them. If people - pack members and hatchlings alike - actually cooperated in a group, maybe the nesting system would be more fun and rewarding to participate in. Anyhow, those are just my off-the-top-of-my-head thoughts, so if there's any mistakes (grammatical or logical), please forgive me - I don't want to go back and reread and polish that whole paragraph again lol.

Tbh, imo, I thought that the food draining too fast was an issue for nesting to happen. But after watching the video, there seemed to be a bit more than what I was thinking. I personally really enjoy how the new nesting system is, it's just that... There's no time to actually stop in one place for a while to relax and eat, you're constantly on the move for food. And since you gotta give all of your kids food, you're going to be spending more time trying to graze or eat your diet food (**if you're still in a migration zone that still exists with diet food, that is**) then actually take the time to relax and enjoy being a parent for two seconds. I also think that bring back some of the social aspects of Legacy to Evrima, specifically for nesting would help a lot. Being able to see who's nesting even though you may already be playing as a Dino would be really nice. Like if you press escape and you see the menu, what if you could see the nesting menu from there, too? It would really help to know if you wanna be nested and not ever risk killing yourself JUST to see the nest menu. It's such a simple feature and it wouldn't take away anything from the gameplay, in fact it would add to it. There still wouldn't be Global chat, but being able to be in game and pressing escape to see an extra button for nesting would be very good. The only thing that you'd have to worry about is making sure you are in a bush, since you'd be in the nest menu, kinda like for the settings menu, you can't see anything, but that particular menu screen.

Also if you spawn in a nest you literally have to wait longer for your dinodsaur to be adult, so it's technically a disadvantage, the only upside is that you get a pack right away. The solution to that? Nesting should be mandatory! It should be the main way to spawn in the game, not an option. This would of course create the problem that species could go extinct because there are no nests avaiable and if all adults die nobody can build a nest and spawn. This could be maybe solved with AI nests/parents or just with servers having mods actively spawning as (adults of) these dinos and nesting or you get the option to spawn wild only when no nest is avaiable for your species.

As someone who has discovered the genra around the time of pteras release on evrima, I've played it in and off ever since, more recently tried BoB and PoT and the vibe and mood is completely different, I almost felt like I was playing a completely different genra of games (which is likely true), but I still find evrima to be the more immersive one, the global chat just feels weird to me (again, probably due to evrima) and it makes the game feel more like a "pre game lobby" than a survival game.

It's Evrima in a nutshell basically. They add cool features, ones that I was begging for for years and then they completely scrap corresponding mechanics (or don't implement new ones) to even enjoy them to begin with. Like courting mechanic. Cool feature, I've always said that being able to nest alone in Legacy is insane. It not only is super unimmersive but it also deprive you of any reason to play as a male. Then they added courting and I was really excited until I realised I can't even find anyone to nest with. It's ridiculous, all you need to do is to make another call that goes thru entire Island, can be heard from enywhere to tell other dinos from your corresponding specie but opposite sex that you are willing to nest. Then you add two more calls. One approving and another one denying your will to do so. Once you and the person of opposite sex both approve their willing to nest you can see them on a compass, flagged with a heart icon that gets bigger once you get closer. Simple as that. Now you can find a partner that is also willing to do nesting. What else could you do to make this mechanic more pleasant? Well for starter - I don't wanna leave my entire group just to have sex. I know this is actually pretty immersive, but video game should never be a simulation of a marriage. I can have friends and a wife, change my mind. Instead of that you could make a separate grouping system that is independant of your group. Now you can chat with your friends and also have a nest. Guess that could potentially help you with a tidious maintaining process. And as for maintaining - I personally don't find it overly complicated or demanding but I acknowledge that there are different types of players, so the solution is really easy - you just tweak it. You make it two, three times slower, that's what beta testing is for, but you need to listen to your community first. And as for egg invitations - you should be able to check available nests at any given time from your character menu. Just make a new tab and I guarantee you - you will find lone, bored players to fill your egg with immidietely.

Something that would be nice to add that would imo make nesting a bit more popular and less risky and negative on your part is the following: _______________ - A thing/mechanic where if you had example a 75% + grown dino before being nested in (herbi or carni), to then ofc "throw" away your dino and be nested in. Then if you die before you reach example 25%/50% growth (or somewhere in between) with the dino you were nested in. You'd get a growth boost of example 50% (on top of the diet boost you'd get while growing, so 100% in total if on a perfect diet), for the next time, you grow your dino (Except for Stego, Deino, and any other apexes as that'd be too easy). You will have this boost until you have reached example a growth of 50%/75% (or somewhere in between), where then the boost will be gone and from there the only way to get a growth boost until you reach 100% is via the usual (diet). - To get this bonus you'd have to pick one of your involved dinos, for example, a "Cera" (before being nested) and a "Diablo" (after being nested... and ofc when it comes xdd). If you don't pick any one of your involved dinos the next time you grow (on the same server), then you won't receive any bonus and it'll have to happen again to be able to get the bonus again. _______________ - Example: You had a fully grown Cera, and you were nested into a Diablo, then you died at 10% growth to your parents leaving you and your siblings alone (if you got any)... Then when growing your next dino again either Cera or Diablo (in this case Cera again), you'd receive a growth boost of 50% for the entire growth time until you reach 50%/75% growth again. In this case, you'd get a perfect diet when you reached 25% growth and would keep a perfect diet for the rest of the growth until 100%, so basically you'd have the 50% growth boost from the nesting incident and then 50% from the diet, getting 100% growth boost until you reach the limit, basically cutting the growth time in almost half. _______________ This imo would at least remove some of the pain of getting nested and just being either cannibalized or dying shortly after while having thrown away your previous dino, making nesting again more popular... (bit long and might be hard to understand but just an idea and just had to type it down😂)

I have a feeling the community plays a different game than the devs want to make. Dondi and the team want a somewhat realistic community based life simulator with a life cycle and realistic kill or be killed, but the community considers the Isle a pvp mixpacking kos fest and will use and abuse any new and old mechanic to make life hard for each other, while in turn the devs try to force more and more realism down their throats

I'll be curious to see how nesting does on Path of Titans. Right now, I like both games, but PoT's servers are often maxed out, while The Isle's Evrima servers are often poorly populated. Getting rid of global chat was the most critical change to The Isle, and I'm not sure it's working. I understand the thinking behind it, but it takes so much out of the game, including the ability to alert people to the availability of eggs. I often wish the devs would abandon their vision of The Isle as a horror game and just make it into the most amazing dinosaur game ever, with no humans, and no ridiculous micromanagement of things like stamina.

Honestly I like that they don't have global chat, I really don't think that it belongs in the game, too many people just treat it like a chatroom at that point and basically just sit around chatting all day not traveling or anything which takes away from hunting opportunity. Not to mention all the mix packing that happens when they can talk. I do think they need other ways to alert people of eggs and stuff though, maybe have some global announcement/ping whenever eggs are available and an option to take the egg from the profile tab or something. Or even if they just had global chat for your species or something like that so if you wanted to be nested as something specific you could just pick that and wait for someone to announce an egg. But I definitely wouldn't want them to ruin the realism aspect behind the game by giving a full on global chat again, that was aids.

100%. Yo my best stories of legacy I feel like involved nesting in some way. Before Thenya servers were completely barren I found amazing spots to hide and nest, growing numerous packs of numerous species. Once packs were full or hitting their limits, the pack would separate, the adults go out hunting or roaming, sub adults could either keep the nests goin, reviving the fallen or set out on their own adventures having grown with a small family during the hardest part of the game, growing. Taking random eggs was great for introducing yourself to other species and you could learn from your peers rather than youtube or reading forums. I made amazing friendships through nesting. One of my top memories is a time I grew a whole pack of Gigas, with a whole clutch of Sub adults that split from the adults to go about their own journeys. My giga died and I started the next day growing a pack of ceras. We were roaming and hunting as a full pack and surrounded a giga, and then I recognized the patterns and called out with Global, it was one of the dudes I raised! We had a laugh and split ways but it was such a fun experience, I hope he fell for the game a little harder knowing the community was watching out for him occasionally.

Removing social chats is the single most TERRIBLE thing that ever happened to Evrima. We, the players, should hold a petition to bring back the chatting systems. It is fundamentally IMPOSSIBLE to regulate toxicity perfectly, and in a game centered around combat is WILL happened. Censor slurs and certain words, go ahead, make it an option to enable and disable on private servers, but don't take away people's ability to socialize just because you'll have to hire a moderator team to handle complaint tickets.

I nest in evrima with my friend almost every time we play, and I have to disagree. Nest maintenance was never an issue. It gave us a task to focus on and to feel satisfied when we do it right. I have never thought of it as any kind of difficult or demanding. It just speeds up the tempo of our game for the time of incubating, which is, for me, very immersive, as animals in real life also experience such changes. What makes nesting unpleasant for us is people themselves. Babies who absolutely cannot listen to their parents even when it's the simplest thing ever to do. Babies who cannot stick to their group and end up wandering off every time they see another dinosaur. I could go on and on. The process of the eggs hatching is already chaotic enough, but with the wrong people it just feels straight up horryfying. And then raising your offspring, which you don't even really like is really punishing you for even wanting that socialization
@colecampbell19067 ай бұрын
agreed. I think it's good to have that stuff otherwise nesting would be boring just sitting there waiting for it to be ready, and as you said it makes it more realistic. Personally I just think the fact that you have to be on the character screen to see and accept eggs is the problem. If you could do that while playing, it would likely fix everything and people would regularly be using it.

Another issue that ties into not just the nesting shortcomings and the playability of The Isle is the fact that you're limited to 1 character per server, and that's something that gives Path Of Titans a major edge over The Isle, where you can have multiple characters saved per server. Not only you really need to write down what server you have saved that character on, to keep track because the server selection isn't the most accurate in my experience, but needing to log out of a server and TRY to hop onto another server to play another character really is not an enjoyable aspect for playing The Isle either.

Just nested tonight as a dilo near NE plains. My mate randomly vanished not even two minutes after laying the eggs (he went to get the milk I guess??) but even then I managed to get 4 out of 6 eggs hatched. The main problem I was having was definitely hunger/thirst. The first time I went out, I sat on the nest until it was just barely outside the “too hot” range, but still comfortable. I had to go all the way down the river to not get eaten by the deinos, and when I returned it was just about to go outside to comfort range on the too cold side. From there it went downhill. I couldn’t find much food, and I was beginning to run low, down to a quarter left. I couldn’t leave the nest long enough, or else the eggs would freeze, and even without that, I was too worried the two children I had at the moment would begin to starve if I had left. Once I had the 4 children, it was even worse. I was a single parent that had to manage the nest temperature, 4 different children that would get hungry at different times, along with my own deteriorating needs. It was ended shortly after by a few cera ambushes. I do think I could’ve done it, but the temperature was definitely a bit much. Of course it was made harder that I was the only adult, but again, the whole temperature system was just a bit too much, it deteriorated too quickly, and it was the main stressor of the things I had to juggle. Overall, I don’t think it’s all TOO bad, it’s definitely something that causes unneeded stress. I don’t find the eggs being on the main menu too bad, but that may just be because I got lucky getting 4/6 hatchlings, and may just be that I’m bad enough at the game that I die often enough to be able to check the eggs available.

Problem exists since progression mode became survival mode. The original benefit was that you could skip species, and be nested in(Saving loads of time). The only benefit Nesting has these days is for Playables like Raptor/Troodon/Herrerra to Force having a full group. (And becoming viable to combat almost anything) But the argument these days is that nesting takes more time, and spawning as a Juvi would be better.

I can tell you right now why nesting doesn't get used as much as it did on legacy.... No global chat. In legacy, that's how everyone got their advertising out. In evirma you have to go to the character creation screen before you'll even see any eggs, and you'll never know if one is about to be ready in the next couple minutes so if it's not up when you check you're not likely to wait for an egg that may not even come. Then when you're playing, you won't even know if one of those eggs does pop up. Therefore people make eggs, nobody takes them, then they stop trying to make eggs because nobody is taking them. Then people stop checking because nobody is making eggs. I think the only solution is for there to be some sort of global announcement when eggs are ready and maybe an option to take the eggs while you're in game instead of needing to die first and go to the character screen. Because I can't speak for everyone else, but I'd be pretty fking annoyed if I killed my dino for an egg just to have the egg get taken before I get to the character select. Also, maybe they could have something on the character select screen that shows what eggs are being prepared and approximately how long is left on them. That way if a dino you want an egg from is at say 80% already you might be willing to wait whereas if it's at 5% you might not wanna wait so long.

Debris nesting is EXTREMELY hard. Just to incubate your eggs you need to be near the nest every second. And when you finally have children they are extremely weak and you need to feed them every 5 minutes. For example cerato cant do that much effort for it's children cuz it is always hungry and eats very much food. It is not much easier as a carno cuz if you want to nest you need to do it in a safe place where is no dangers nearby so you can't find enough food for 2 carnos. Deino is really slow and hatchling are still hungry. Like my nesting was a pain, even through a discord it was extremely hard. I was near the nest for every second and i could survive just because i nested in center! I have no idea how to survive as a deino on a gateway, and i wont nest as it. Mud nesting is extremely easy. Make a nest in two clicks, sit sometimes, feed your children without any problems cuz or you are a hebrivore or you are a mid tier dilo and utah so you can est boars and deers. To make debris nesting MUCH more easier and balance it with a mud nest just make a temperature drop longer for debris and increase incubation time for both types. Increase hunger time for debris hatchlings. Give them one start nutrient (carbs for example) and that's it. It wont save nesting system but it will make it much easier.

I understand their idea of absolute realism but when you can't communicate with people it gets really hard because you don't know what that creature is thinking, and you instinctively think it's bad.

I was watching a critique video a while back and scrolling through the comments I understood the idea put forth a lot better... I am seeing people with so much passion for this game disappointed because of simple issues that shouldn't exist. Some people suggest ideas and the discord server has an entire section dedicated to it..... but it SHOULDN'T. We are the customers, we should not be pleading like this! We should not be explaining to the devs how to make their own game. That is not our job. The person in the video I watched said "I'm not going to give ideas on how to fix these problems - if I did they would have to hire me". The devs should KNOW how to make a good game already (theoretically speaking). They should FORSEE how isolating players in a multiplayer game will have negative consequences. The video also had another criticism - or maybe it was a comment somewhere... that the devs should take a game design course. I hate to complain constantly but there are always fundamental and game-breaking issues! If you can't navigate the game UI properly or learn how to play the game without watching a guide online, then it's not a very accessible game. The idea that you have to kill your dinosaur to see eggs is baffling. NO ONE raised their hand and thought that was a bad idea? That players would be unhappy with it? That nesting would be choked by this flaw? This should have been one of the first things they created for the system! Also the way they constantly change working aspects of the game feels like they are experimenting on us but they never learn. It's very discouraging to see little progress on improvement. Like I said, I hate to complain and I'm sure there are some things that are better now - it's just the little things that add up over so long that allows resentment to fester. I love this game and I see great potential if they'd just figure out what they want to do and stick to it. Create a system, move on, and fix bugs when they appear, otherwise this game will never be finished. I'm not talking about speed, here - I'm talking about a playable, unbroken game as a whole. I doubt we'll ever see it if the devs are constantly fiddling with values and we pay the price. Systems should not come in half-baked and constantly tweaked. It makes it look like no one knows what is going on. Sorry that that's very negative. I'm sure you've heard it all before. I just saw all the comments giving ideas and thought about how we shouldn't feel the need to do that.

Nesting should have come with a system to see all available eggs in-game and from the server list. That is just an integral part of accessibility needed for a system like nesting to function.

Lol nesting mechanics themselves aren’t the problem. It’s very easy to maintain the right temp for the nest it has such a large safe zone in temperature. What makes nesting hard for carnivores is the hunger drain. You must hunt successfully before you nest and start hunting again as soon as h the e babies hit juvi stage. I think nesting could benefit from having a list you can access while playing and choose to die or not to be an egg. But really I like the nesting in evrima, it’s challenging but not impossible. I think that a lot of people don’t nest in evrima is because they find it boring because they aren’t constantly fighting or moving and they care a lot about how they will look. Those kinds of people will never like nesting no matter what is done. Evrima needs to shift its player base to less deathmatch mentality players(which is why they did the stam changes and why so many disliked it) the stam changes I think are good for the larger Dino’s but not the small ones. The small ones should have the zoomies)

Yepp totally agree. With the hunger then Dondi said they will put out a patch in Febuary that would adjust the hunger issue… as well as adjust the stam to last longer and have a slightly better regen system… for me them i pretty much havent nested as carni or herbi for ages… when Diablo comes imma try and change that… cant wait for it

I can’t wait! I wonder if the hatchlings can spar as well, or perhaps can’t but a cute animation plays if you attempt it. Like running a bit and tripping over your feet, lol

I have one comment about the speed at which a player build. I've had AI wreck my nest when it wasn't even complete yet. After completing courtship and starting to build the nest the partner died and as the surviving female I still had a chance. When gathering sticks I came back to find my half-completed nest was gone, and a single AI Pterodactylus flapping about in circles above where my nest used to be. It might be just for Pteranadons, but the AI activley spawns nearby a nest. I've had it happen two more times, but only as a Pteranadon nesting. Maybe it was bad luck and there was a carcass nearby that triggered their spawn-in. But then why not fly near the body and come straight for the nest? But if my assumption is correct: it basically means that nesting solo isn't viable and even punished. If I I stay to fight the AI, the nest never gets completed. If I leave to look for resources, the nest gets destroyed. Only by having two dedicated, somewhat capable parents can a successful nest even come about Addendum: I've also had the same little buggers appear around my Beipi, Raptor and Croc nests too I love the removal of Global chat btw, off topic but thank god they did So many reasons why it's awesome. Everything you said as a benefit of nesting still exists in Evrima. Just now it's only done by actual effort and not just click and point

Imagine If you nest and no one joins your nest/ egg after some time or maybe 1 per nest, You have an AI baby, that you have to try and keep alive, and your calls would give commands like( follow me, run /hide, stay put, etc) having to migrate young around the map is the dream right?

To be honest, I dont mind nest maintenance. That is not a problem for me. My main issue is how difficult it is to get an egg. Yeah, I also think you should be able to see available eggs without exiting the game, without killing your current creature. Maybe the character screen could have a tab where you can check them. Heck, there could be a button that parent creatures can press that tells people on the server that eggs are available. While going to the character screen, the tab for eggs would be highlighted if eggs are available. So many more people would want to get nested. I have played Evrima since forever and am looking for eggs every time I join a new server or my creature dies... and I only managed to get nested a single time. Once. ONCE. This shows how broken the feature is, when people who absolutely would love to get nested at any time, cannot do so.

my idea to fix this problem is to give the parents a "social buff" that could reward the parents with for an example extra dmg and/or decreased stamina drain (these buffs was just an example). but if the parents losses one of their hatchlings, then they could recieve a debuff like deppresion etc. this would make nesting different and rewarding if done correctly

This could be cool, because it's been documented with a lot of animals that they become enormously more aggressive and dangerous when they have offspring.

Devs want to stop players chilling at a place like in legacy. That's why you mostly have to roam around for food. But they forgot that staying at a place is crucial for nestlings and their parents to survive. Nesting system is actual a waste of resources and unneccesary code in the game.
@JustJempas7 ай бұрын
i think nesting should only be a thing if evrima gets the amount of players legacy has. PLUS also having a new great falls type place in evrima for nesting would do the trick.
@jackmills77587 ай бұрын
it would be nice if nesting does have some point to it besides people coming together and socialising. there should be a feature where players growing their dinosaurs from nests get stat buffs but small amounts, it can be stamina, hunger, thirst or speed. then when you grow up and build your own nest for your own babies, then those babies gain your stat buffs and some more on top, its about giving the next generations a better chance of surviving, and the process repeats and repeats until your family tree dies, and i find that a really cool idea.

@@jackmills7758 I don't know if they have the exact same idea in their mind, but they mentioned that nesting will unlock some buffs in the mutation tree. They also mentioned that being nested in, also gives some buffs. I don't know if the buffs gonna go from parents to offsprings. And we also have to wait and see what can they implement and what not from their plans. Planning to introduce a feature and actually introducing it is two different things. But yes, the devs wants to reward people who nest.

I think they should just have the perks system involved. Like in order to become an elder you have to nest successfully then people would definitely do it and incentive driven.

Nesting, by design, was never going to work in Evrima : It just adds more growth time for you without any counter-benefit for once, which doesn't give it much appeal... But more importantly, it's a mechanic which requires you to stay in the same area... In a game that has been thoroughly designed to be extremely HOSTILE to any attempt at doing so : Downgrading food and water capacity, removing most food sources and scattering the rest all over the map, forcing you to be constantly on the move... Map which is far too massive compared to the number of players that can fit per server. You can't even group up as more than 3 people at once (regardless of your animal's diet) without being constantly on the brink of starvation. In these conditions, nesting is practically a death sentence for any player who tries to do so, thus nobody does it. The fact there is no benefit to either the nesting nor the nested player, combined with the punishing mecanics tied to nesting itself (managing the nest's integrity) is just the final nail into the coffin.

Never gotten nested in Evirma due to the absence but made multiple nest myself. In each and every single case my mate got themselves killed or starved to death or WILLINGLY killed themselves to provide food for the offspring. And the offspring every single times end up infighting even when you manage it to provide food and then turn for whatever reason AGAINST YOU. Then your option is either A: Leave them alone and let them kill themselves B: Kill them yourself and ask yourself for what reason you wasted 1 hour of your life nevermind the sacrifices of entire hours of your mate. Do this 6 times and yeah nesting really doesn't hold any appeal anymore. Now we need things that actively encourage players to not off themselves on a whim.

step 1: place nest recklessly in a hotspot, in the open step 2: wait for a hungry predator to attack you in the night because... they're hungry... and you're just sitting out in the open step 3: instantly spam "rb" in the chat, and send a screen recording to the discord This has been a tutorial on an easy way to engage with the little known third tier of Legacy Isle meta, "Getting people banned from you're server."

Me personally, I love the nesting mechanic, but I find it almost impossible to find someone who actually wants to nest, and then also someone who is the opposite gender. ESPECIALLY when playing an unpopular Dino. My solution was to include a mutation with the new mutation system available to female dinosaurs at 100% growth which allows them to nest by themselves.

I have nested a bunch on evrima and it's just not worth it, till you even get the eggs it takes forever and till someone joins my friend and I were about to log out. And when people join? Well, when I first nested we made 14 eggs on tenonto and our group members made 20 and in the end we had, drum roll please, two baby tenos! People that join nests either join to waste eggs (and then complain they can't get themselves killed), kill everyone else since hatchling do crazy damage to each other, run away, log out, die in a stupid way, get killed or are just so loud they attract everything and you get killed by a big group. Also, carnivorous being forced to stay in one spot just makes them slowly starve, deinosuchus doesn't care too much, Utah has it really hard and for carno its literally impossible because of just how much food the hatches need
