Swamp Titanoboa problem
I get that people want the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ snakes so badly but seriously, do you have to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ trip over them? I got killed three times by the slithering ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and lost a Pteranodon while trying to retrieve my stuff!

Dial back the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ snakes by 75% at least! Or remove their tranq ability because Jesus Christ on Crystal Meth, you can't stand anywhere near the swamp without twenty of those scaly ♥♥♥♥♥ slithering up your ass.

It's not even logical! I mean, small snakes I can understand there being an abundance, but Titanoboa? Snakes that large? No way in H E double hockeysticks. There are more Titanoboa than Beelzebufo, how in the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is that even possible?!

Seriously, I have had it with these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ snakes in the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ swamp!

Try putting more attention to the sounds around you, I hear the snakes almost everytime before I spot them.

Though I really don't think there are too many of them. I recently just tamed a high level pteranodon right next to the swamp without any problems (I mean literally right at its edge), and had to kill only 2 snakes that were around (and 1 sarco).

Then you've been luckier than me. What part of the swamp did you hang around? The south side is littered with the slithery assmunchers.

And the problem isn't that I can't see or hear the snakes, it's that if I try to get away from one snake I get munched on by another almost instantly. It's as if they're hunting in packs!

... Wait, did they get the Raptor and Titanoboa AI messed up or something?

LOOOOOL

1: Its a swamp, expect to be attacked by all kind of creatures.
2: If you cant even handle a snake then your dinos/gear suck, get better ones.
3: Its a SURVIVAL game !
4: Snakes do make a sound.
5: You dont need to be in the swamp so if your not ready for it stay away from it.

I gues you play solo, because your problem is not to be found on official or private servers.
Snakes are really not a big treat, just take a good dino and gear with you when your exploring the swamps.

Yeah, they are pretty frustrating. I always assume that there are more, so when one attacks, I'm turning and moving as I fight, because there is another most likely getting ready to chomp my backside. I also noticed that since my fortitude is higher, I don't get tranquilizer as easily.

I still tend to leave my valuables as home when farming the swamp and usually have a raptor or saber escort, which helps a lot. Last night, I tried with just a frog and my Dimo and we only had a problem when we were mobbed and I just hopped away. Lol. My frog started as a 116, but I didn't tame her in the swamp. I just picked her up and dropped her off in our taming pen and it was no trouble.

The snakes are annoying, but try adjusting your tactics a little. I have lots of swamp deaths, too. :)

:steammocking: again crying. I love the swamp. My frogs like snakes and can eat them all.

It's a survival game,in the jungle,without mom and daddy,ok? You need to survive and for that, you need to find some safe place to build your home...I hope i was clear dammit

An Argent is perfect for the swamps. With this bird clean up the swamp and take what you want.
Another trick is, lure the snakes to Paracers, they can help you.. ;)

Okay, to all the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that apparently litter the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ community: I know how to survive, I have been playing this game for a fairly long time. It's just that things that are as powerful as Titanoboa, with their paralysing bite, shouldn't be so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ numerous. Especially since Titanoboa are thought to be solitary creatures.

How nice of you to call people names, while typing like a piece of sub human garbage yourself.
