  • The day a dino game gives me a proper pitch, yaw, and roll is the day I never touch the ground again.

    I’ve always found it funny how Path of Titans gives Thalassodromeus the ability to dive underwater when it couldn’t in real life and on the flip side The Isle doesn’t let Ptera dive underwater eventhough it most likely could.

      True. Pteranodon was a marine pterosaur that lived directly above the sea and dove deep for fish. No way it can't take off from the water

      yeah, path of titans really messed up thalassodromeus by making it semi-aquatic. just because it had "thalasso" in the name doesn't mean it hunted at sea - if you want a semi-aquatic medium-sized pterosaur, pteranodon is RIGHT THERE!
      thalasso could've been like a smaller parallel to hatz... we could've had it all...

    PoT doesn't just have 2 pterosaurs. It also has rhamphorynchus.
    Rhamph was added a few months ago and it can fly decently fast even without the dive.

    PoT flying is like a toned down version of the ARK griffin, whereas Isles flying is more like a roller coaster ride but only the beginning climb. Slow and steady until you reach the top.

    PoT's flight is very fun and interactive imo. Hatz gets extremely fast with rapid diving. Hatz also burns stamina significsntly faster if flying slowly

    Isle flying feels disembodied for me, like you are just a passenger on the back of the pteranodon. Turning and maneuvering in Pot actually feels like you have control of the creature, with each of them having their own weights, styles and optimal speed gain techniques.

    • @nugget587
      @nugget587 Місяць тому +1

      what, the isle is much more realistic. they cant fly backwards and cant stop thats fast and cant dive like that and much more

    I think my biggest problem with The Isle flight model is that sometimes when I try to turn left or right and press my left or right movement key it will turn right or left instead or in some cases will turn right or left and cease to turn further at a certain point. I think it's something about the camera that causes it, it's really noticeable if you try to turn when the camera is facing backwards. Either way it makes maneuvering difficult, especially when I'm turning around when hunting. Also unrelated to that, is anyone else's right click ability on Pteranodon broken? Mine just does not work.

    • @FuFubomb
      @FuFubomb Місяць тому

      For the final part (the right click ability thing), make sure you are using it on the surface of the what while flying. If it still doesn't work, I suggest you delete your config files for The Isle.

    25:27 is it? I don't think Pterosaurs had that much freedom of movement while airborne to the extent of PoT but correct me if I'm wrong.
    Either way, both games will be receiving thermal updrafts at some point which will make gaining altitude in The Isle much easier and allows PoT's flyers the speed they desperately need.

    • @TheKingMinmi
      @TheKingMinmi Місяць тому +3

      Yeah, you’re right on the movement thing because if we look at modern birds, there’s like one that can move back-and-forth and that’s just the hummingbird no other bird can do that. I think it’s pretty reasonable that the isles Ptera can’t go back-and-forth

      I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but those updrafts already exist in PoT. You can find a few of them out at sea exclusively.
      If they've said they'll be adding more that's one thing, but as far as I'm aware that's all they had planned for them.

    One thing I don't like about PoT is that, pterosaurs don't attack with their wings, and then they took away the ability to peck in the air, WHY!?

    • @DemonOfCoffee
      @DemonOfCoffee Місяць тому +1

      It would get very toxic very fast.
      The long necks of the Hatz and Quetz would allow them to peck down at anyone while staying out of bite range. There would be nothing other Apexes could do against them at that point.

  • @nophlast4237

    people gripe and moan about stamina on fliers when they constantly hold the shift key in both games, they don't understand that in both models sprint flight is meant to be used sparingly and only for emergency situations. POT is way more gamey with the swoops, but I do find it fun, you can still easily cover the entire map with either flier without even running out of stam. I would love both games to have the blend of options.

    • @Sir_Alonne7274
      @Sir_Alonne7274 Місяць тому

      Youre right but sadly since the Hatzegopteryx nerf on path, if you arent sprint flying you drain stamina at almost twice the rate. (1:56 seconds of flight while sprinting 1:00-1:10 while slow flying)

    • @dojo45789
      @dojo45789 Місяць тому

      I mean isle ptera has limitations you can work out how to work with to make stamina last, but it feels like it takes too long to regen its stamina. Something feels off about the herrara having what atleast feels alot faster of a regen speed than ptera
