Community Crunch 302: Introducing Desmodus, EVO Event, and More!
Zorafoxx replied to StudioWildcard's topic in Announcements
I love the bat, the design is absolutely amazing and very close to what I had in mind when I drew my dossier for it. A bit sad for no latching ability mid-flight but I am very happy that at least we have the screech now fingers crossed for it to be rideable -
Idea for the Desmodus. Instead of bleed, stun with screech then while stunned/docile drink blood to recover creatures health faster and produce blood bags in inventory.

Forgot to post it before, but here's a compacted version of my dossier (all pages in one image) to be easier to share if you'd like. Voting is closing soon, would be nice to get to 3rd place -
Desmodus Draculae: The Giant Vampire Bat!

1) Big yes on no fall damage, even if just when latched onto fliers. The bat would fall on them, so it makes sense 2) I added the idea of it only inflicting bleeding when latched on my post, but it was suggested from someone else in another platform to me. I agree with you, it makes sense to always inflict bleeding. But I added it anyway as an idea to balance it if needed 3) Agreed 4) I prefer the disorientation and deafening/not listening to whistles, I think stuns and desmounting are already plenty in the game and people tend to really hate that... but if it were to be added with your suggestion, I personally wouldn't mind. Everything else I also agree thanks for contributing! -

I'm happy to hear you liked them, thank you so much! -

Yeah that's exactly what I had in mind! If it does get in the game it should have different flying mechanics from what we already have when it comes to flyers, not only it makes sense when it comes to the creature but it would make it more unique. Faster turning, good at dodging... -

Well, the bat we have isn't rideable or even able to be used as a shoulder pet... This one is pretty different. We also have many theropods, many birds... Of different species, like the two bats are. But other than that, I like your way of thinking I hope we can keep the placement we are in right now! I'm going to be brief since the size question has been discussed here a couple of times, but I think there is a difference between a mere size change and and completely making up a creature but giving them a real animal species name. The size for the bat isn't a big stretch when the design is pretty similar to the real counterpart and abilities make sense for the animal it is inspired on, in my opinion. They already gave you the Gasbags example that yeah, seems more fantasy than real although it shares the same genus of real life tardigrades, but if you want a better example of a real life creature that has a huge size difference in ark, look at the lymantria. -

You can vote for both at least on this round! This looks absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for contributing to the submission -

Someone gave me idea to only allow Desmodus to inflict bleeding if he latched onto the target (and not just with a normal bite attack), to make it more balanced. I really like it Additionally, no need to have a separate ability to pin flyers down, when we latch onto a flying target and use the screech ability it should be enough to make the flyer fall down from the scare/being disoriented Already added those details to my original post but wanted to update it here too -

That would make sense. Owls are only available in Extinction, so anyone without that DLC can't use owl pellets, in the meanwhile if Desmodus were added with guano as fertilizer we could give that to Onycs as well and make it a more accessible fertilizer alternative -

Thank you so much! About the ability to hang upside down - I think it should be possible while riding them, could be the way to increase stealth at night (to wait before ambushing a player or dino). When not riding, it should also be the "go to sleep" animation that Megalosaurus and Shadowmanes have, they would fly up until they can reach a place to hang from (on open areas it wouldn't be possible to sleep). Maybe they'd have to sleep enough during the day to have the stamina regen bonus during the day or something? -

I told myself I wouldn't draw anything this time, but I couldn't resist... I've edited my original post with the "dossier" I drew, illustrating the abilities I described there. I'm not great at drawing scary creatures, so don't see it as how I'd like the creature to look (I would like it to be like in the original dossier) but simply as an info sheet about its abilities
