Cloud24 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Whats the point of turtles anymore if you just get shot off of it? Do we have to just use brontos with platforms and parcers from now on? It seems like thats what they want P.s you get shot off of stegos now... and some turrets are on players only so you cant just whistle turtles in...

maze Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Use whistle groups and send your animals in the fight without a rider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazzamaniac Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Don't stegos offer incredibly reduced damage on armor plates, which surround the rider? Or trikes with their Head damage reduction? They could maybe soak damage directed to the rider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they have man power to work on main game while they're working on Abberation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stegos damage reduction, and the Trike damage reduction is in the game from a loooong time ago so I don't know what you are talking about. Look at this video if you don't trust me. So better to confirm the information we have ourselves instead of spreading what you wanna spread... I sometimes don't understand if you really like the game or want it to fail hard. Regards.

They made it so you get shot off of the stego now.... so they are pretty much making it so that platform saddle dinos are the only way to drain..

TangoOsmo Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Turrets did shoot drivers in ealry days of game. I don't know when they changed it or why. And back then carbo was the best tank, prolly still is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the curent case, time to throw out the turtles and start the stego breeding projects... wildcards' way to extend the gametime... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes raiding super easy? Before it was that players only turrets did shoot dinos if driven and player if player was closer target than dino.

We tested trikes, player only turrets immediately shoot and kill the rider, so Stego is the way to tank such turrets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, player only turrets aim and shoot the riders, so if they are not hidden by some dino parts, the riders are shredded to pieces in no time. So far I am aware of 3 dinos which fi the bill: stego, golem and bronto platform with alittle house protecting the rider. Turtels surely the past, no use...

Deathwaits Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I honestly like the turret changes. It means if you want to raid someone you need to make much more of a commitment on doing so. You need to think it through more and have much more risk/reward. It means you cant just grab a few turtles and let them empty out the turrets to just run in toss a few c4 and run off with the spoils. Raiding as been too easy for too long... so this change just adds more difficulty to pvp. That being said I did see someone using a Tech shield generator on a bronto with super low bubble range... just walk up to the walls and place c4 before walking away to blow it... the shield soaked up all the dmg. So in the end if you have the tech for it raiding can still be incredibly easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
