The Isle: Combat Tips, Tricks, and more!

[@MrDCSaunders]

What's your favorite Dino to fight with? Let us know below! Mine is Dilo ;)

[@ShadowTae]

one question is the game only offline? Or if you host a game will there be AI everywhere without actual people being in the servers? (Can you survive if nobody joins your game)

[@MrDCSaunders]

The game is meant to be played online with multiple people. There are many servers to play on, some hosted specifically by the creators, and some servers hosted by other people that have the resources to run servers. Technically if you did host your own game you will survive if you enable ai. Hosting a server where other’s can join is a different story though. Much more involved than just clicking “host” in the game.

Trike, I can beat anything in a 1v1 (even Cama shant and other) and I can 1v2 all trikes and win too

[@MrDCSaunders]

Trike is a thicc nasty boi

[@fefek1]

@@MrDCSaunders I got the isle for like 4 years and I got 2k hours and like 1k out of it was playing trike lol

[@wolfy297]

I learned about baiting and bleed the hard way. I'm not a big fighter and as a Juvie trike I was badly damaged by a dilo. I was bleeding out and he didn't have a scratch. Weird thing is he kept running away so that id charge but wouldn't let me in close. If he wanted to really run away he could've as dilos are much faster, but he just kept running me around. Thats when I noticed my blood trail. He was trying to bleed me out by running me in circles. Id try to lay for a second to slow the bleed but he'd use the time it took me to get up to get hits on me. I noticed the pattern and started quick toggling my rest key. As he would run in for what he thought was an easy bite, I would already be up with an attack and no time for him to turn. Let's just say he forgot how much more health a trike has in comparison. I managed to kill him but dang did it get close. Now I'm watching these videos so I dont get messed up again 👍

[@GankScythe]

i missed the bit about "Alt turn SERVER" and was basically freaking out about not being able to alt turn xd

[@MrDCSaunders]

Haha yeah different server do have it or don’t xD

[@tractorbeamz2743]

This was an amazing show of how natural this combat is going to be! I didn't think combat would be this intuitive, that's definitely impressive. I think I'll go ahead and load up the game for my first round or two, thank you so much! You've given me the courage to go ahead and play! ^_^

[@Vokalplus]

Thanks for the video! My number one problem when trying to counter a tail ride is when I try to turn using z or alt, my dino suddenly turns in a completely opposite direction from where I'm aiming, somehow my WASD and mouse just don't cooperate, and after doing that I always lose my position and it's impossible to get back. would love to see a follow up to this video, thanks

[@MrDCSaunders]

It will take some play and practice. Try going on to a death server and just fight a bunch.

[@matheusmetalss]

yeah, but small carns will die with one or two bites, theres the balance

[@ravenstar1397]

I just get turn glitched

[@UhhhMayhew]

Right on! Great explanations.

[@man_of_the_mist1118]

I am so bad at combat. This video really helped. Thanks 😊

[@MrDCSaunders]

Glad it helped :)

[@Bianka660BG]

My fav dino is dilo too! Thank you so much for this video! ❤ Very helpful I hope I will meet more dilo mains to have fun hunting with :D

[@bluethechicken5204]

wow, youre underrated, nice job dude, keep up the great work!

[@MrDCSaunders]

Hey thanks mate!!

[@cupiddza]

Thank you so much, I'll be coming to your channel when I need help with this game. ❤😄

[@MrDCSaunders]

Hell yeah!!

[@deinodeino6089]

You'd think it'd just be all about how to tailride. Considering that's all people do in this game, but I'm sort of surprised

[@MrDCSaunders]

Depends if it’s alt turn or not. Even without alt turn it’s still probably an advantage to your survival to only go in for opportunistic bites.

[@frank2510]

It is all about tailride. This game is trash for that reason.

[@NtoTheM]

@@frank2510 My experience too. Doesn't matter if you spend hours growing an apex predator, any small chicken can just abuse the horrible movement in the game and keep biting your tail infinitely. And even if you somehow end up fending off such an impossible attack, you get fuck all as a reward cause now you're bleeding, exhausted and still starving from how fucking spread out everything is in this game.

[@ravenstar1397]

@@NtoTheM simply sounds like you needa play evrima

[@Texasmule]

Now I can be an allo sweat

[@jk.hahahahahuset2194]

i always try to stop right before they can hit me so they run to my head and i can bite them but they always stop right behind me and starts to bite me then when u try to turn around or run away they are litteraly stuck on u its so annoying they need to do some turning update so they cant just stand behind you and then u are helpless

[@MrDCSaunders]

Haha the update is called Evrima homie!!

[@tizianocoutado9803]

5:13 Could you show which keys you play for the turn? I cant do it.

[@DoubleAgentRyan]

@MrDbear can you do a full video on diffrent combat tips for specific dinos. like a trike for example

[@MrDCSaunders]

With evrima coming out soon there will be more types of content for that. Come swing by the stream sometime! I talk about that kind of stuff on stream quite often.

[@brutsid4998]

This was very helpful thank you

[@D4rkBl4de]

Very useful video :3 Thanks. I'm trying to get good at dilo, but I think I will main Tenonto, Hypsi, Troodon and Dilo in the recode.

[@MrDCSaunders]

Dilo is definitely rewarding! Good to be patient with them and bait a lot

What servers have alt turning, may I ask?

[@BasedGodFlashy]

It took me so long to get adult rex and I got destroyed with ease cuz I didn't have experience fighting smh

[@MrDCSaunders]

Yep that’ll happen! Best thing to do is go on a deathmatch and fight stuff tbh. Practice!

are these practice combat maps private servers? or can anyone join

[@horsehay]

I was a sub Rex and I got destroyed by a group of like 5 utahraptors. That is why I’m here, train me sensei

[@MrDCSaunders]

Just play EVRIMA haha. Seriously though, were you on an alt-turn server or no alt-turn? What was your % of growth? If you weren’t 100% or very near there you won’t 1 shot them. If you’re on a no alt-turn server you’re just screwed. Lol.

[@horsehay]

@@MrDCSaunders no alt turn, I think I was around 75% growth. The server is called dry reef

[@MrDCSaunders]

Yeah if it’s no alt turn and you’re 75% grown.. you’re dead if any adult thing finds you :( just come play EVRIMA :)

It's a shame all these tips might be useless when Evrima drops

[@MrDCSaunders]

Yep! Then it’ll be time for remakes!

[@Zonalyre]

I disagree, the game is very promising but combat is terrible. It's so gamey, unintuitive and without collision it's a complete mess.

[@illhaqu777]

Alt turn is so stupid, looks absolutely out of pocket and it takes away the believability Imagine a gigantic rex start ice skating when in danger, bruh
