J’aurais bien vu quelque chose du style :
-meutes de loups, chasse en groupe, prend les survivants en tenaille, …
-rapaces mutants, pour avoir un danger qui vient du ciel. Vivrait dans les montagnes
-ours dans des grottes
-crocodiles, serpents, … dans des zones marecageuses
-varans, qui peuvennt grimper sur les batiments, constructions, arbres, …
-une tribu primitive dans un village en bois, avec arcs, lances, … très agressive envers les joueurs
-une tribu troglodite qui vivrait dans un réseau de tunnel mais ne sortirait pas car hyper sensible à la lumière

On pourrait voir les choses un peu plus loin :
-la nuit, les ours sortent et rodent autour des maison
-par temps de pluie, les crocodiles sortent des zones humides et sont plus agressifs
-par grosse chaleur, les varans sont très agressifs
-a la pleine lune, la tribu organise un rituel où ils traquent les survivants pour les sacrifier
-guerre des tribus
…

l’idée étant que chaque moment de la journée, chaque météo, chaque zone puisse offrir un danger plus ou moins prononcé

dinosaurs this stupid military npc this cool

[EnderRay]

dinosaurs is a terrible idea

[primeval15429]

I think they should do the exact opisite of dinosaurs and make it about animals that evolve in the future

[SlimsantaHD]

What is wrong with you people? Dinosaurs? THATS A HORRIBLE IDEA FOR A GAME!

[Godlike1702]

zombies the best!!! Add zombies back!!!

[Okxyd]

I voted dinosaurs but in fact I don't care if you call it a dinosaur, a robot or a military. I just want some dangerous AI that can affraid a group of high stuff guys. Something like the Tank in L4D or a group of Bloodsucker in STALKER. A thing that make you say "fuck fuck fuck !" when it runs behind you.

[Schuh]

I voted dinosaurs first, because dinosaurs are just cool. Later, I realized that mutants would fit the best. I disregarded them first because I thought of them as a lame copy of zombies (same shit different name), but that's not what mutants are. Mutants CAN be humans with decreased brain function and raised aggression, but they could also be animals with enhanced self-defense-mechanisms, intelligence and aggression. The possibilities of implementing mutants are nearly endless, from giant spiders that lurk in dark areas to primitive humanoids that still go farming and attack to defend their loot.

I also had a few Ideas for wildlife (could be mutated). I'm sure some of this was already posted.
- magpie. It flies into radiated areas to collect loot and then hides the loot at his nest. The bird is extremely hard to kill so the player's best choice would be to observe it from a distance and loot the nest when the bird is away looting.
- killer bees. that attack every player who gets near the hive. They can be tranquilized by camp fire and the hive then can be used as a sort of grenade.
- rats. They attack wildlife and players. Can be lured and trapped into rooms with food. Said rooms can be used as fake storage rooms, raiders will be attacked when breaking through the door.
- stray dogs. While behaving wildly at first, they can be tamed by feeding them. They can be given commands by holding e and selecting "stay", "sit", "attack", "follow".
- giant snake. Attacks players, when player's hp sinks to zero, it eats him including the loot. Extremely difficult to shoot, best approach is to kill with melee weapons while attacking in groups of 2 or more players. Loot is equal to previously eaten players loot. Also poison to craft poison arrows or smth.
- crocodile/aligator. Drags players underwater and hides them in underwater caves/under tree stumps. Players must kill crocodile and search underwater for loot. They must find the loot before new crocos respawn.

The keypoint is that there should be a great variation of enemies, not just restrained to a specific class. Just hunting bears and wolves has become extremely boring because once being accustomed to it it's just routine, even if you're fresh spawned.

Furthermore, option to spawn event enemies, like an aggressive easter bunny or a mutated reindeer

[SweepTheLeg]

I don't care what replaces them honestly. Any of the high votes for would be cool. I just want something other than bear, wolves, deer, and then red bear, wolves...

Other than that we have to look for other players to kill. And on servers that aren't as populated, it gets kinda boring with nothing to do. I'd like for some type of npc to try and break into my shit.

Would add a whole new aspect to the game.

[Danifer]

anything but dinos anything but that please if i wanted dinos i would of got stomping lands

[geert111223]

If yall want a dinosaur survival game, have a look at this: (If advertising is not allowed I am very sorry, please just delete the top of this post and i wont do it again ;P)
http://www.thestompingland.com/
The website is a little plain and not much saying but have a look at some of their Youtube videos
http://www.youtube.com/user/TheStompingLand/videos
I like this one in particulair, it would be amazing getting squished by such a giant animal :D
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2YKWdUO56w

Personaly I don't think this should turn into a Dinosaur themed game.
It has a lot of potential with the PVP alone, but i agree there is need for something other than players.
So my suggestion would be predators;
Lion, Tiger, Aligators, Sharks and maybe even "giant" eagles to make a flying threat.

This way you would have danger in every environment and no "save zones" it would also allow you to maybe make different environments like, swamps for aligators and do something with crossing rivers so Sharks or Piranhas (in this case) can nibble on your toes :D

If you'd implement just normal (but dangerous) animals which would be a challenge, not just like the bears and wolves you can outrun right now, than people would need to take different routes to avoid these animals or take them out stealthily or a player might hear them.

If you could make this a straight up Survival game, what SO MANY people have asked for, than I think it will be an even bigger succes as it already is!

O and I would personaly like to see more options, not just metal and wood, but maybe also stone.
And I know that digging isnt realy a option, but maybe you could make the ability to build a little bit into the ground, kind of like a basement?
Also creating swords would be amazing, but if your gonna make swords do it good and make it so you need a smeltery and all kinds of tools! the better the item gets the longer the process should take, not only with crafting time, but also with the need to use more machines. (but thats for another topic)...

[Jarokwa]

Fel Reaver.

[11meister]

There should be roaming hoards of naked AI characters that chase down players and beat them to death with rocks.

[Mephoszero]

so, ok.. DINO has almost 30% and Military.. so why not make

MILITARY RIDING DINOS!!! now more than half of people are happy.. :)



and the best of all:

[11meister]

I love how your center picture combines Aliens - Dinosaurs and zombies all into one neat package.

Still looks like it belongs more in Fallout New Vegas than Rust though.

[ajjien69]

Dinosaurs would ruin the game, Military would be cool..

[EARBALLS]

TREMORS.

No degrees required.

[DeadRisen]

Aggressive rocks. Piles and piles of them.

Edited:


These

[xlucassm]

you vote in dinosaurs or military? I voted for dinosaurs, military would not go down well, so what kind, imagine you ta collecting a stump in the middle of the forest, good, there's nothing, you get shot shotgun out of nowhere, and a lot shot out of nowhere, Dinosaurs would go well, especially with the style of the rust is much nicer to be attacked by a dinosaur, out of the woods, and wanting to attack you, and imagine, you and a group of friends in search a rex (rare dinosaur), which drops very leather, cloth and flesh, think of night the raptor riding and giving that tone of horror, noises of footsteps, and the night be a very loko predator, now imagines military, which rough, walking and suddenly you begin to lead a caralhada shot of the woods, I voted for dinosaurs exactly why surely, will be much more fuck, - If you've read this far, you fuck!!

Edited:

and the plant may have, right in the center of the plant, that it kind of maze, great with the massive walls, behind these 2 can spawn: 1 + 5 Rex raptors in around him, and rex, as it will be very apelão further with the raptors, will drop a special item and may drop: Recipe kevlar / weapons or even boat, thank you.

[Northcock]

Lol at whoever just said Tremors! That would be great! Big sand worms that follow sound and try to eat people!

Dinosaurs like TRex and Velociraptor would be weird, but huge burrowing sand worms like in Dune and maybe Pterodactyls circling overhead trying to swoop down and eat players could be interesting! Lol.

Or Robots like Terminator could be interesting too. Aliens would just be ridiculous though (imo) lol

[sleekism]

dinosaurs would be fine as long as they aren't giants. mini t rexs the size of bears running in and around rad towns wouldn't be game breaking at all, and they will be a lot more unique than generic military.

I would like a crafting book that will tell us something about crafting and the game mechanics and you should have the book when you when you spawn that will help us

[robino1]

I voted for ALIENS with crazy weaponry which can utilize the full physics and effects possibilities of the game's engine.

1) ALIENS give the largest scope for creativity. ALIENS can look like anything and behave in a manner entirely dependant on the context of their design. ALIENS can be drone types which are very dumb (easy to develop early on) and elite soldier types with exotic weaponry and tactics (a later design target for the developers). Let's face it - for the developers to implement human military AI would either be a) disappointing or b) very challenging and hence take much longer to develop.

The soldier AI for Arma2 is still disappointing even today and the guys at Bohemia Interactive Studios have been at it for 14 years.

2) ALIENS could use the GRAVITY GUN & other exotic weaponry which could increase the fun factor beyond the regular ballistic gunplay.

Alien technology could perform effectively as the games 'magic'. Yes I said 'magic' in terms of enhancing player abilities beyond the believable limits of survivalist or modern technology.

3) An ALIEN invasion can easily provide the background story to the world of RUST. After the invasion many people have scattered into the wilderness and have to struggle to survive.

I include some pics from 'Battle of Los Angeles' to demonstrate what the elite alien soldier could be like. I would say that the Alien Soldiers should be rarely encountered. Possibly they teleport or drop-in to support their drone counterparts from time-to-time.



The 'drone' type alien which may be found picking through the remains of human civilization looking for signs of survivors could look like the ones from the 'Signs' movie,



Finally, I propose a shape-shifting type alien which looks exactly like a human player - intended to infiltrate human settlements and gather intelligence. However, confronted or examined closely - they attack with tentacles that burst from the chest just like 'The Thing' movie

[Sammi79]

Triffids.

[Corkscrew]

I think adding bandits wouldn't be a bad idea.

[Neckteck]

Savage Tribe in forest in camp like képi indian with arc and lance who make ritual in night and chase outdoor survivor.
Dinosaure everywhere :D
Man of cavern in cave with fur set and Bludgeon.
Somes snake in swamp.
etc... etc... <3

[Pax301211]

Why is nobody talking about Giants?? Guys just imagine how fucking awesome it would be to have Giants in groups sitting in their hide-outs in the mountains or whereever you may want them to be and protect their precious loot. See it as a kind of PVE gamestyle with passive giants that will attack you when you defend them. This combined with tribes of savage men with ritual tattoes over their bodies... It would be cool if they would behave more agressive and try to fight on sight to claim your skull.

So here, take some artwork.




Examples for "Forest Giants".




Examples for "Mountain Giants".



Or maybe more human-like Giants.


Maybe even Giants driven crazy from the radiation?

(BTW is there a way to add a spoiler so the images don't spam the site?)

[DTPool]

I voted for zombies... but without conviction.
What I expect from the game are packs of enemies roaming the night, attracted by noise (zombies).

For the moment, the game is a simply PvP "kill another player before he kills you", this is not a survival game as I expected (assistance, trade, exchange, etc...)

[starrkinho]

Mutant animals with dinosaur dnk and only bruce willis can kill them

[SpaceVillager]

I think there should be all of them but on different types of servers. personally if you really like dinosaurs that much maybe you should play a different game because this is a survival game with guns and airplanes. I think dinosaurs are NOT a good idea think of how many players rust will lose. I have no problem with you guys liking dinosaurs but dinosaurs will attract a LOT of little kids. Dinosaurs just wont fit in with cavemen, guns and planes.

[BaSkA_]

Issue solved - Next!

While I agree that dinos don't really fit in, Cavemen, Guns and Planes don't really fit together either, do they? :p

Oh jesus anything but dinosaurs please! I would rather have little fucking exercise balls hoping around.

Add weird mutant hill billies that don't kill you, but instead knock you down and then bugger you for a few minutes before leaving. That would be hilarious! (not a serious suggestion)

[3com111]

Facepunch members would be great.

a bunch of 13-16 year olds hiding in forests trying to find a wifi signal.

This, is by far the very best of the idea. Imagine having a group of friends with you when you're fighting against a monster like this with only bows.
They could also make loud sounds when they are on combat, which would lure other players to join the fight also (against you or with you).
But if we are replacing the red animals... maybe smallsized giants like this? And in addition to these big giants, whom would be like extra event thing to have several of these giants in map which would drop maybe lots of woods/ores?

I don't know. I just freaking love these giants.

[Corosive]

So game would turn medieval? Look clearly nobody knows what they should add and nobody knows what kind of game this should be (modern, future, prehistoric) nobody can decide on something so the best solution is to add it all, every server will become something unique.
