gabeluna27 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 If this animal does make it into the game through the voting pole, I imagine it spawning inside caves. Especially the "Southeast Cave" of The Island, the map's "Lava Cave" as I like to call it, as both a tribute and reference to something I've thought of since first imagining gorgons in Ark years ago. In a classic Capcom game, Dino Crisis 2, there's a gorgonopsid species known as "Inostrancevia" where in both lore and gameplay, they appear in hot regions like the lava caves and the burning missile silo. Because of this, I like to imagine this thing appearing in that cave, as well as some of the other non-lava themed caves like the southernmost or centermost caves.

Brownieontop Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Please don't add this creature, we have 20 crappy tiny dog tames already, no reason for another stupid copy and paste animal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scanova Posted January 15, 2023 Author Share Posted January 15, 2023 11 hours ago, RaptorRapture19 said: Gorgonopsid isn't actually a real creatures, it's the name of the group. Inostracevia and Gorgonops belong to the Gorgonopsid group, so you might want to change the name of it. The idea is that the Gorgonopsid is a general member of its family rather than an individual taxa. Many creatures in ARK already do this (Terror Bird, Titanosaur, Trilobite, Ammonite, etc.). I feel like it fits more considering people tend to be more in the love with the gorgonopsid concept (Like in Primeval and Walking with Monsters) rather than individual species like Inostrancevia and Gorgonops.

I guess that makes sense, but it's kinda useless to have Inostracevia on the vote too in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltyarbiter Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 My favorite prehistoric animal is Inostrancevia and I have some ideas for it, 1. It should have it so the way to begin tracking your enemies is too you use a special attack that bleeds the enemy and getting the scent of it's blood 2. Maybe for the sniffing ability have it so it shows a trail of foot prints or smoke or something so it can be the ultimate tracker 3.Have them run like a Andrew gradually gaining speed. 4.The gorgo could also defend your base by patrolling around your base and sniffing for the scent of any intruder in a set area, like how you can set the range of a dino leash. And also due to the fact that most likely gorgonopsids did have fur I would be cool if it had a nice coat with a jaguar like pattern which has the strongest bite force of all big cats.

Lysarah Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 We don't need more freaking carnivores in Ark. Vote for Giant Bison and Myotragus, so that PVE players can also get nice and usefull animals. In the last vote there was already a carnivore for the PVP people. Please don't let the PVE players down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why people downvoted this post but they are right, Gorgonopsid is NOT the name of the creature. Gorgonops is the correct name.

You realize about half the creatures in ark aren’t dinosaurs, right? Also gorgonopsids (not a species) aren’t dinosaurs either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droidcommander Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Common Name: Gorgonopsid Species Name: Inostracevia Brutalis Behaviour: extremely Aggressive Wild: A wild Gorgonopsid has to be one of the most dangerous animals you could encounter in the jungle, a true demonstration of Power, I've seen packs of these Rhino sized predators challenge giant Carnivores like the Rex or Spino and come out on top. This is most likely the work of their karge teeth and incredibly strong biteforce, which according to some survivors can cut through even the thickest armor be it natural or manufactured. Because of their high intellegence and large size they have to be one of the scariest animals on the ARKs striking fear into the hearts of smaller predators with just their presence alone. Domesticated: If one can manage to appease one of these great beasts and gain their trust, they might just let you stick around long enough to be considered part of their pack. At which point they'll trust you enough to let you ride on their back and even fight for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you so mad after Bison and goat lmao, They are very good suggestions (also unique cause there isnt similar creatures in game) and Ark isn't just an Dinosaur game, They all are good suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelR0956 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 for tracking we have the parasaur, to find high level dinos we have the light shoulder mounts, for explorer notes the wolf, to explore the dinopithecus, thyla and maewing and for the piercing we have the stego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latrodectus Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 You should add an abbility that prevent nearby players from being netted, it would chamge the meta at pvp, awesome idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krankin Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 It would be cool if It had something like a claw attack that lets you bleed your opponent by health %, so tankier things could have harder times doing with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrystalWulf Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I am always down for either more mammals or carnivores that are NOT dromaeosars. I do love the big bipedal carnivores, but man, we need more diversity lol. This guy looks similar to a canine, and I LOVE canines, so that's another hell yeah from me.

LagiSG Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I'd love to see a Gorgonopsid in the game! Unless It's already been suggested, what if it did more damage each time it attacked, similar to the Ferox unless I'm remembering wrong. And perhaps a saddle that could give it recoil damage or some other minor ability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathon99 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Not a fan of the goat or the bison. Would the Gorgonopsid be eligible for Boss Fights? I'd like to see that. Therizinosaurus and Rexes are great but kind of outdated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streetsharks Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 maybe a bite that slows and inflicts really high torp so it acts like a gorgon and can be used to knock out tames better than a longneck rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
