Did they get rid of the Raptor Pounce?

[crimsondrac]

Does anyone know if they got rid of the Raptor Pounce? I notice they no longer pounce on me when they first attack. I saw a patch note during Easter I think that said they removed raptors pouncing on small things like insects but I figured they would still pounce on you.

Best guess the usual ♥♥♥♥ happen. The X-Raptors on Genesis should had their pounce disabled but well wildcard.... all or nothing ^^
Might get fixed some time, might not at all.

ah, did not know that about the new raptors. I do not buy anything wildcard sells anymore. But that makes sense and I am on the "It will never get fixed" side of the fence. I know wildcard well enough to know that if it is not a game breaking bug, they really don't care.

I got pounced and pinned multiple times on abberation in SP yesterday starting a new character. Both mounted and unmounted.

Aberrant Creatures have 4% less health, deal 6% more damage

X-Dinos,5% more base damage and 3% lower base health. Wild X-Creatures also have triple damage resistance(raptors no pounce)

none of these bonuses or debuffs seems to take affect after being tamed, they all seem to go back to vanilla status. 3Xs damage resistance is quite massive when you try to tame the X variant dinos.

I do not know if you know this but if you jump right when they pounce, you can avoid getting pinned. It is actually in the Info bubble when they get close enough it is just you usually don't have time to stand there and read it. Either way, I have not been getting pounce on by raptors on The Center. It is just strange.

Thanks for the info, but I did know that. They come in packs so it doesn't always work out. You avoid one and another gets you. :) No big deal, I was mostly baiting them to tame in a building.

So I just tested on my island and they are not pouncing there. Maybe the Abberants are still pouncing and the rest aren't?

I noticed that the Aberrant variant still pounces but the normal one doesn't. I tried to use the NPC replace command in the game.ini on my server to replace the normal Raptors with the Aberrant Raptors but it just stops them from spawning all together...
