Pro tip. Organs give more nutrition/bites if u drop and then eat them. They can also fill more diet slots if you need a duplicate for a certain diet combo. eating it whole gives less nutrients and the excess doesn't pass over to a second diet slot if its needed.

Good to know! The changes to how organs work this update have been nice but I'm not familiar with all of them yet!

[@temushin]

I've never had any luck starting a carnivore anywhere other than center. I end up starving. The exception is sometimes starting on the beach and eating turtles, but even then, the journey from there to center is a hungry one. AI just aren't reliable enough (or at least weren't in previous patches).

[@dinometta]

I have a good amount of success in South the last two updates. North West is hit or miss. North East is pretty well barren at all times. And southeast is great for herbivores to start but definitely not carnivores. For carnivores you're right, center is the best place to begin your journey.

That was a fun video to watch! even if i did get interrupted many time while trying to watch it lol.

[@The_cat_father]

The bile lock is inteded i think. The hole thing about cerato as said by the devs is that id you are in a corose and a cera is coming over you need to question if its actually that important. It's hole thing is that it poses a long term danger if you only brush past it much less if gou go for the death.

[@dinometta]

I think there's a difference between "crap, I vomited and now I am in danger of starving to death if I stick around" and "crap I can't fight back at all because every time they bite my inputs are locked for 7 seconds" Especially as they removed stuns from the majority of attacks this update to prevent similar input locks. Time will tell, but I heavily disagree with vomit lock being a thing as it encourages bad gameplay on cerato's part since they can quite literally just get a group and bum-rush even adult stegos to prevent them from attacking. A stego can't run away like most other playables, so what are they to do if they get targeted?

[@Spag419]

​​​@@dinomettasucks because stegos finally had a counter and people cried. Can't wait to see how they're gonna make Allos and Rexes unviable too just to keep the stego players happy.

[@dinometta]

@@Spag419 if they'll just fix pounce, troodon and Omni can deal with stegos. As it is, raptors die on pounce 70% of the time and troo goes down about 90%, which makes it incredibly difficult to survive the fight long enough to kill one.

[@oxan7594]

@@dinomettaThe bile lock is one of the only things Cerato has going for it, though. If it isn’t on a body, it struggles to defend itself against the much faster and much stronger Carno. If they get rid of bile lock, then they NEED to do something to help Cerato protect itself.

[@benanders4412]

As a relatively new player to Evrima, this is the only experience i know. I always spawn center because it's the only place i can navigate without falling of a cliff i didn't see because of the bushes. Only i have no idea where the shallow water is, so there is a 50/50 chance i'll be eaten every time i drink.I have no idea where i should go. And half the leftovers are poison, because i play omni and get sick from eating cerato leftovers. And 9/10 leftovers are from cerato's because they dominate center usually. And then when i finally survived into adulthood. I get stuck on a bush and killed by a small random pachy while i'm unable to defend myself or move at all. Or i die in some other stupid way like falling of a cliff. I have a love/hate relationship with this game. It's totally frustrating at times. But i keep playing it hoping i will do better next time.

[@dinometta]

It's got a massive learning curve for sure! A couple tips: don't eat bones or rotting meat. If you sniff and it looks like a bone with goop dangling from it, it's gone bad. You can eat stuff a cerato has been eating just fine as long as it's still fresh and not just a pile of bones! You can spot shallow water by looking for twigs sticking up through the surface as well!

[@benanders4412]

@@dinometta Thanks for the tips. I'm sure i'll get the hang of it in time. I was just unaware I've been playing on hard mode all this time by spawning in the center.

I have evaded many deinos like this, but it's more difficult as a fresh spawn.

What server were you on and what was the population usually at? I've watched a few of my carnivores die to starvation because the server pop was under 50

[@dinometta]

This was NA3, server pop at 100 the whole time. I think the biggest issue is too many people playing deino, not enough people playing terrestrials

[@xievisthedragon]

@@dinometta Yea, I am starting to think they should have a 10%-20% rule on species allowed on official servers. So if the population max is 100, only 10-20 people can be crocs on the server MAX. That would force people to play other dinos. Which would give the crocs who are on the server more fun to have, instead of resorting to cannibalism all the time cause there are only 70 crocs on the damn server lol. It would also be a lot more fun for non croc players, because no one can freaking hunt and kill crocs aside from other crocs.

[@dinometta]

If you usually play on EU servers, or are in the southern side of the US, I would recommend the unofficial server "petits pieds" It's run by Poutine Italienne the KZbinr and he's got some really nice coding to automatically enable and disable spawns on certain playables if they reach too high a % of the server.

[@dinometta]

@@xievisthedragon ahh, okay. You know the forest on the north western edge of center? The one that people often run into and then fall to their deaths in the gully below? If you follow the edge of that to the river, then go east along the river, you'll see some small islands in the river. Ignore the first ones and keep moving down. When you see the second group of islands, look for the sticks poking up out of the water and drink as close to the middle as possible. You'll still want to be wary as it's center so there's often carnivores around, but you can generally escape a charging deino there if you're paying attention and are ready to stop drinking and run away at the first sign of danger.

That's fair. Center is a nightmare for frame rate

[@Lavandula_cat_girlGaming]

omg that stago was me

[@dinometta]

Lol which one? The first or the second? Sorry for killing you if you were the second xD After losing the first and nearly starving, I was seeking redemption!

[@sum0994]

prety good work

[@dinometta]

Thank you!

[@ouroboros3705]

i respect ceras way more than stegos that race mix

[@azaluc2988]

8:11 how did you do it please ?

[@dinometta]

Hold down left click while carrying a body, then shake your mouse

[@attspace]

cant find any food or ai besides center as a carno :/

[@dinometta]

Ai is much harder to find in center than in south. The best way, in my opinion, to find where your preferred food goes, is to play as that animal for a while. Raptors tend to hang out NW, center, and south. I often see stegos of all sizes traveling the road from SE swamps to south. Tenos line to hang out around teno rock and will travel through the forest by SE River.

[@oneofcoryXkenshinsamurai]

were do you uslly spawn as a meat eater

[@dinometta]

Truthfully? Usually center or south. I go south for cerato because he's slower and the cover in that area is better. And with his wide scent range finding food there isn't horribly difficult. Raptor, troodon, and carno I'll go center because I can usually get food and get out before I'm spotted, or I can dodge and weave through the grass and bushes to escape if I am

[@goldfishmentality]

It's so unfortunate that center is the only part of the map you csn hsve fun in. It feels a bit like path of titans at the moment where the only inhabited place is crater

[@dinometta]

Yeah, it's a serious struggle. Hopefully gateway and migrations help spread people out or at least prevent permanent hotspots

[@EarthshakerOnamazu]

hey goldfish

[@Epicgamingboysz]

I can see you were inspired by owltime fun video tho

[@dinometta]

I've watched a few of his videos, but nothing recently! I won't discount that other creators have inspired much of my content though, as the best way to see what works is to watch what people have enjoyed and putting your own spin on it! This particular challenge idea actually came to me after I watched a Path of Titans video with a similar challenge in a hot-spot on that game!

[@ozzmosis210]

One vs One against that Stego is one thing but two vs one with voice comms and neither of you were hungry at the start? I wouldn't have been too happy with it taking that long and then not being able to take advantage of the kill. Winner = Stego

[@Mechagodzilla550]

You shouldn't worry about packs of raptors I've 4v1ed and won agenst them as the cera

[@dinometta]

Yeah they're not really meant to fight adult ceratos unless they've got a full pack. And with the pounce and hitbox bugs right now it's riskier than it should be for them

[@kylarking]

Great a deino in center. Bet you cant

[@dinometta]

Survive as deino in center River?? Oof that sounds like a rough one!

[@Justmonika6969]

I'd play this game more if I could actually get into the servers. The long server queues are pretty painful, so I prefer PoT instead.

[@dinometta]

If you can get on right around server restart, it's not too bad. There's quite a few unofficial servers as well, though unfortunately most of the active ones are EU-based

[@Justmonika6969]

@@dinometta Yep, that's my issue. I live in the US on the west coast so it's difficult finding an open server.

[@Zenny-YouTube]

Loved this video! Was a bit lame at the end watching you kill an adult cera when not hungry. Seems like ruining someone else's fun for no reason Regardless this journey was an adventure to watch! Would love more full grow journeys in the future. Subbed

[@dinometta]

Yeah I got a bit bloodthirsty in this one. Usually I'm more chill when I'm not hungry. I'll definitely be doing more full grows in the future! Thanks do much for the sub!

[@Zenny-YouTube]

@dinometta I can't even be mad, we have all have had our eyes turn red from the bloody lust! Was playing evrima while watching this video. Amazing work
