I think this creature looks awesome and would be Amazing in ASA!! However, I believe it’s not right for this map. Extinction isn’t really a Sauropod friendly map, I mean Extinction is one of the few maps that doesn’t have Titanosaurs, why would we need a sauropod almost the same size. I don’t know if you are planning to put this creature through another vote. But I think this creature isn’t for Extinction, nothing wrong with its design or its abilities or it’s amazing saddle, I just feel the map isn’t suited for sauropods with all the narrow paths and all the cliffs. I am sorry, I hope it comes back for another creature vote.

Congratulations on the win, I hope this creature will be amazing!!! Even though it wasn’t a creature I was hoping for this map. I hope it will be Awesome and be really well designed and suited for Extinction!!!! ??

I am skeptical as to if this creature will look anything like it does on here. But maybe it might since Extinction encourages mutated fauna appearances, unless they completely fudge it like the Fasolasuchus. Anyway, I dropped by to leave some other mechanic ideas incase this doesn't end up being the whole 'War Machine' concept. Since I know they said they were specifying voting based more on concepts instead of just the dinosaurs, but they're still putting what they are willing to into the game. Even if they kinda tread on their own boundaries by adding the Yi Qi (They said the didn't add Megalania cause it was too far into the role of the Rock Drake yet they added another native glider?).

A large Herbivore usually isn't the kind of creature to win, and if people are so adamant about having one they should definitely give this creature abilities that help it fulfill that role and make it individually more interesting than the other bland Sauropods we have and to avoid the fate of the Titanosaur or the Giga. Who get reduced to giant seige weapon and Titan killing machine. To add onto some ideas, the Dreadnoughtus could be the counterpart, counter or rival to the Carchar, the same way that the Titano and Giga are compared.

If the Dreadnoughtus roars at a Carchar with bloodlust built up, they will gain a specific buff against that Carchar and take reduced damage and deal more damage to it, enabling them to fend off those threats. They could do this to other enraged or buffed creatures too, maybe even Gigas? Perhaps but just an idea of the same theme. Others would be having the ability to outright reflect a Yuty Roar back at it by roaring if it does at you or your other tames, sending them and their carnos running when they realize they picked on the wrong dinosaurs. Yes. I did read the post and saw how it already has an ability to have a passive buff against large creatures past a Rex size, but that doesn't mean other ways of applying it or being able to fend off these creatures when something this big needs to be able to have a chance at survival aren't worth considering when it comes to its actual strength and stats. I do also like the ability of the EMP version of its Roar though so i imagine that'd get added instead. Doesn't hurt to throw the idea out though.

Another ability could be the introudction of Knockdowns. A CC that functions like getting knocked unconscious, ir at least the animation, for a moment before getting back up. This would last longer for bigger creatures, the bigger they are the harder they fall etc. Depending on weight, it could be easy or harder to do. It obviously wouldn't work on a creature much larger than the one trying to knock it over, the attack itself would also have to hit the center of mass of the creature and have a more precise hitbox, meaning it wouldn't be easy to hit either. It could be the effect of a particularly heavy neck or tail sweep.

The reason this ability would be nice to put In is also cause it could be added to many other creatures that have abilities that work like this with blunt force or charges like Trikes, Carnos, Pachys, Stegos, Megaloceros, Equus kicks?, Ptera Corkscrews, if all the latch spots for Deinonychus are full on a large creature like a Stego or flier and it forces then to land/fall down for a moment or a few seconds from the strain of the attacks and weight. Many of these creatures got subpar or mild feeling TLCs that still feel like they need something and giving the Dreadnoughtus the ability to make something literally sit down would be cool and a great angle for its abilities.
