@GP dude when this 1st was posted, did you see estimated sizes for the ps4? I swear i saw them but its not there now. @Jen was the op edited?

Hope itll be available to view thru the forums.

Ok see i joined a lil over a year ago. So your telling me the rates used to be half for harvesting and taming...Dang i thought people on official had no lives now, just dang lol.

Jat literally says 2 rocks in the op

Ya im only getting 1 stone also. Also he says evo events will be 3x but my evo event message still says 2x.

Read the changelog for xbox on the main page, next week, no exact date yet

Thanks GP. At the guy that brought it up, so for anyone on SE or island this has no value and basically has no bearing on this argentavis discussion lol

Nvr heard of this, sounds like a mod, unless its like the lasso and equus saddle

Next week. If the repair ability is OP then the smithy ability is to. Smithys repair metal items, they go hand in hand, so the devs need a wake up slap for this, idiots.

So is the crunch or changelog right? Tlc on 16th or 23rd??? Anyone who responds quote me because im not following this topic

Thanks, i wrote literally the same thing in this post 19 hours ago.

Crunch 126 just landed. Estimated time for TLC2 is next week.

Agreed and cheers to that

You breed it with the good dino, get the goods stats with the awesome color. It might take a few tries but its doable

Mid april starts in 2-3 days. We're so darn close to the estimated area and its weird we dont have an exact number considering how close it is.

What is primal survival?

I haven't watched the video yet but i never said it wouldnt hunt, just that scavenging was its go to. I have no doubt rexes have killed prey, it would just scavenge 1st. So if i find a hyena tooth in a gazelle the hyena is magically a hunter 1st now? No. All carnivores can hunt, it might not be its go to tho. As for a guy saying it was smarter because its more modern or some other odd ball reason, i call a quack. Proven science, brain size offers a range of possible intelligence, this is campared to the creatures size. Large creatures need a large brain to run all its nerves in its huge body. The fact that its brain cavity is rather small for its size means the majority of its brain is used for running its body, leaving lil room for intelligence. Your claiming high degree of sight when we have no eyeballs to study to know its sight abilities. Now tho we could argue this argument is for future tlc patches, im rather surprised joe hasnt deleted posts or closed this thread yet, so we have to end this. At base a spino wins by dps, rex has better health so could probably tank it out when properly bred. I enjoy the new spino and cant wait to try it.

And where are you getting this information? I can believe the forward facing eye and better vision(We all know JP was wrong there), i even believe the muscle mass. But the intelligence and predator is bull dude. The rexs skull had a small cavity compared to its size, it had a small brain for something its size. It suffered from lack of brain size because the skull was so thick, probably to protect its brain from rival rex. Lets compare the 2 baddest bites of the modern world. #1 is a rat living in the jungle that cracks open a coconut type seed that a hyena couldnt get into. #2 is the hyena which is a scavenger 1st and formost(So the baddest bite of a modern carnivore belongs to a scavenger). The rex has a bone breaking bite just like the hyena. Why, because due to it being a scavenger it wouldnt get the hole meal and therefore it needs past the bone to get more nutrition or even eat the bone(Just like a hyena). Animals are predictable, by seeing others with the same ability you can tell what it does. The traits are traits of a scavenger or nutt eater, not a hunter.

April 11th-20th

Without dlc the rex has the 3rd strongest bite on land, beaten by the mega(This is bull crap) and the giga(which makes sense for arks version of the giga). Ill mention it again the rex in game is not a rex, its tyrannosaurus dominum, not tyrannosaurus rex. Its referred to as rex because as helena put it in the rexes dossier the locals were to stupid to tell the difference and to ignorant to listen to her LOL. Its interesting how they allowed that lore to actually effect the in game name tho. So a moderator doesnt have a hernia, i by no means was calling anyone stupid or ignorant.

As croc vs shark showed, it doesnt take a ninja master to effectively avoid a limited range of attack. Ill say it again the spino is larger and therefore would most likely not fear the rex. In all reality the 2 would most likely avoid 1 another, only over food or territory would they even consider all out warfare. The rex has 1 utility, a massive pressure jaw that sits on the end of a long frame. If you know geometry then you understand the farther something is from its focal point the less stable it is regardless the counter balance. Lets not forget the rex was a lowly scavenger 1st and foremost and a hunter part time. You underestimate the actual skill of wild animals and natural defensive instinct. The spino knows how to use its arms and also was a full fledge hunter against things that could potentially fight back. Do i think the spino is tactical enough to snap a neck, no probably not, but it would probably use its arms to grab and avoid a simple predictable assault and then wrestle its victim to the ground like most wild animals. The rex cant use that because he cant get back up. The spinos heavy and tall enough to pull it off. For either beast its dire tho, 1 mistake for either would spell doom and its fully possible both die.

The giga is over shadowed tho by the rex because of the boss arena and rage mechanic. The giga is only good for kamikaze pvp raiding. Its purpose is to inflict insane dmg before he dies in a suicide dash. I think your exaggerating on the mega, its hp isnt as good, its close but no, and its dmg is definitely lower. The fight actually has a lot of bearing on these 2. Rex is a snub nose powerhouse while spino is a long snout. You want to discredit a fight from scientists that input true accurate info into an unbias computer which generated the fight? Exactly where is the rex gonna put its maw on the spino to 1 hit it? How is the rex gonna get its mouth on it when getting swatted by big claw arms and a larger mouth capable of clamping on the rex's? The spino weighs more by over 4000pounds and therefore is perfectly capable of knocking the rex over which would be it. The rex cant get back up. A simple tank rush which its capable of would end it from the start. Rex is liable to go high and have its mouth clamped by the spinos or swatted aside from it hands.

Now that you mention it i have noticed that the rex was rather small looking in that movie. Regardless tho, the poor spino has been unloved for so long that it dont bother me to see him kicking butt. The rex overshadows everything, even the giga, now we have some actual compition and i think it spices it up. And real life skeletons show the spino was most likely several tons heavier then a rex, longer also means if it stood up it would be taller. You ever watch salt croc vs great white? The shark has more power in the bite but the croc has range. The croc dominated the fight til it needed oxygen, a problem that wouldnt happen for the spino vs rex. Also pointing out the shark has a weight advantage which the spino would have here. Throwing a couple tons of extra weight and height leverage into it would snap just about anything, including a neck. The croc in the fight dominated due to its range allowing it to attack and effectively counter yhe stubby shark mouth. the same could easily replicate with a larger spino with range and arm leverage vs a rex, with the rex never getting a hit in. I say larger because the spino is larger and heavier, look it up. Finally the tyrannosaur in ark isnt the bulky rex, the dossier even says so, so its likely the real rex could thrash the ark rex, then the real rex vs the spino is highly in the spinos favor due to real life science experiments and facts that ive stated along with actually comparison of modern animals abilities and behavior.

Have you watched JP3? Have you seen the size difference or the utility difference between their abilities. Spinos are supposed to whoop rex hind ends. That was an unrealistic problem that is now corrected.

Its when we hear bug fixes we instantly think about the 1s that really matter. Frankly since aberrations release the few bug patches we had had fixes for problems ive never even seen. Id like seeing fixes to things that are more important or more common, things that actually need fixed now. And im pretty sure if i called someone a lunatic id get warned and my post deleted. In the past ive said something far nicer to someone and my post was deleted and i was warned, for 0 points thankfully. I believe the rules cleary state insults and inflaming statements are not allowed on these forums. Kinda like how we arnt allowed to have inappropriate language but theres a moderator (JoeB) whos name basically means...Well we all know what it means lol. Note that im not saying your argument is wrong, 600 is a random number, could be close tho lol.
