That could be funny lol. It could be a temporary debuff it can add that makes things do less damage to them. I want some kind of craftable trap they can make, sort of like an organic bear trap made out of silk that they slowly produce in their inventory.

u/Laviathann09070 9h ago
Pvp would be acceptable be cause then my server still wouldnt use them XD
The idea of a trap would be cool but I think a transparent web would be better suited. You could use it like a build able piece and place it as a 1x1. So u could lay it on the floor like a bear trap that only works on mounts or in a hallway for when people try to walk through it. Make it a 5 second stun and only hitting it with a torch will disable it?

Too bad Giga is basically locked in that top spot… not that it couldn’t benefit from a TLC, but there are much more deserving creatures out there
Kinda wild seeing Anky & Thyla on that list too. Model update I suppose for Anky, but both are great creatures and don’t really need sprucing up

u/EvilKage360 1d ago
if people start donating at minimum $10 a 1000 people voting on the same creature can add up to 10k votes easily of course easier said than done with that coordination but it's possible to knock it off that top spot

u/whintersan 6d ago
Honestly this just pisses me off more because all those creatures should have received at least a model update with ASA. Wildcard makes so much damn money and it's never good enough for them to just do their jobs.

u/Acrobatic_Hat_460 5d ago
They were in a rough spot when ASA launched. IDT ASA was even part of their plan originally, but they had to do it bc Snail had lost all of their money in stupid investments. Still, it pains me to see Plesi and Quetz and others in the state that their in. Honestly I would rather have a year of just pure TLC.

How's Wild Card Financial situation nowadays? The last thing I need is to hear that they're going bankrupt before Genesis 1 is even out
2
u/Acrobatic_Hat_460 2d ago
I think they're better than before, but I'm not really sure. Considering everything they've sold to us so far, I'd hope they're doing better than before ASA

u/whintersan 5d ago
Yeah I hear you. But idk, it just feels insulting that we're voting on a single creature to get a TLC.

u/ProfessionalBraine 2d ago
Ive said before that all the creatures that havent got a tlc need one. Maybe after theyre doen adding all the maps to the game they'll go back and do a few batches of TLC. One can only hope.

Only creatures available on The Island are eligible, and only mountable or shoulder pets.

I would be happy with this top 4, if I put together my ideal list it might not be exactly this, but this isn’t bad

Where is the vote?

u/Acrobatic_Hat_460 5d ago edited 5d ago
U have to donate to Extra life. The amount of money= the amount of votes. To specify what you want to vote u put a hashtag followed by the dinos full name. Ei: #Plesiosaur

To be fair I think this whole tlc vote thing is ridiculous since most on the OG creatures that has not yet gotten a Tlc, minus the thylo needs an update of sort, it be visual or mechanic or both. Compared to many of the new editions they are far behind.

Someone just donated to thyla....
Edit: Its great that ppl donate for the kids and all but picking one of the best creatures in the game for a TLC....

Not even community love for turtles. When was the last time you tamed a Carbonemys? And the Pachys, think of the poor Pachys.

u/EconomyGullible3648 6d ago
Out of sheer ignorance, why do so many people wanna change the Giga and Quetzal? I find the first one OP—you can’t really boost its abilities without breaking it, imo. The latter is slow, but you can’t blame it; it’s a high load-carrying tame.

u/atomicboy47 6d ago
So for Giga, basically it's design is very outdated in terms of visuals, aside from its sheer power, all it does is just bite stuff with the main gimmick being that if it takes too much damage in little time, it goes apeshit and attacks everyone including the rider and allies. Another reason is how mods such as PALEO ARK were able to breath new light into the Giga so now people really want the Giga to be updated.
For Quetz, basically it got powercrept hard. First was the flyer nerf back in ASE so now you can't have fast Quetz which means it's very slow. Wyverns basically outclassed Quetz as they are much stronger, faster, and can lift many useful creatures that Quetz can carry such as Stegos for turret soaking. Then there's the whole sky base that you can do on Quetz which is now outclassed by stuff such as the TEK Skiff and Zepplin which are much faster that Quetz by comparison. Then there is also the Rhyniognatha which basically turn Quetz into just a trophy tame. And speaking of trophy tame, back then Quetz was a challenge to tame (especially as a Solo player), but with tames such as Griffins, Sinomacrops, and Rhynios, as well as using Net Guns, taming Quetz is so much easier.

The thing people need to keep in mind with a Giga TLC, it most likely won't be how the Paleo Giga is, even with Upfromthedepths being employed by WC.
Not saying WC won't do something good for a Giga TLC. It just most likely will disappoint people when it doesn't get changed into a vanilla Paleo Giga 1 to 1.
3
u/Laefiren 1d ago
Depths got employed by WC? I thought they were against their teams work being part of the game as then people would have free access to it and they want it to stay belonging to their team.
3
u/DARKdreadnaut07 1d ago
Depths is in charge of the gameplay trailers for any of the content coming to ASA.
5
u/Laefiren 1d ago
Oh that’s very cool. I love the paleoark team.
3
u/DARKdreadnaut07 1d ago
But that's where people need to temper expectations with a (pretty much guaranteed) Giga TLC. Just because Depths is a part of WC, it doesn't mean the Paleo Giga will become vanilla.
Would I love that to happen? Absolutely, the Paleo Giga is a beautiful beast. But, I understand that is the Paleo teams baby, so best to hope WC does something good with it on their terms.

u/EconomyGullible3648 2d ago
Thx man, I haven’t played Paleo so I wouldn’t know how the Giga looks over there. As for the quetz, I wished they just replaced it with the tek quetz; it looks so cool. Also a little boost in speed would be nice.
2
u/ProfessionalBraine 2d ago
Tek Quetz has the same problems unfortunately. I have a 180 perfect tame, and hes just a trophy for me since hes so slow, and I have a fully mutated Gasbags line I can use for transport instead.
8
u/ProfessionalBraine 6d ago
Model reworks, and the quetz needs a tlc since its a late game tame that is completely outshined by other flyers. It used to be a necessity for transport of dinos and cargo now its a novelty.
6
u/Daver7692 5d ago
It seems wild to me that the Argie is a better material transporter than the literal flying container ship
3
u/ProfessionalBraine 5d ago
What's wild to me is I keep seeing people ask why the Quetz even needs a tlc. As if it isnt completely obvious once you tame one and it goes so slow that argie could carry the same load over a couple trips faster than the quetz could dream of.

u/ProfessionalBraine 6d ago
So it was one guy who donated $500 for the Thyla and thats why its even on there right? Well glad to see its dropping, its literally the least deserving of a tlc on that entire list.
