desert map?

is it possible to play on desert map again? i remember playing on it a lot a few years ago.

I dont believe so, there never actually was a desert map, it was a mod and when the devs removed mods you could no longer play as it.

Way back in Legacy I remember the water didn't properly register "swimming" yet and you could run on the ocean floor, which looked like a desert. They are probably planning on adding "hot" areas since weather and temp will be a thing and a desert-like area on the map doesn't seem outta the question. The only biome that just doesn't fit would be a frozen tundra, though that would likely be the reason for the bio-dome concept being added.

I'm with you OP, I loved the old desert map in Legacy, have such a different feel to them, in those days they had old ruins in game as well, very nice, as well as those real oasis to find, beautiful

In Evrima I think actual deserts are planned for some point, really would love to see them again

i suffered the fate of abusive admins on that desert map, a galli kicked me and i killed it in defense (dude was being annoying anyway) then said galli said i was "kosing" and i got perma banned.

Dinosaurs were cold blooded, what would be the purpose of adding a tundra biome?

Dinosaurs for the most part are not cold blooded reptiles, its's a very old misconception to think of Dinosaurs as reptiles in the traditional, everyday sense, always keep in mind that birds are avian dinosaurs and are warm blooded

Dinosaurs for the most part could thermal regulate (warm blooded endotherms) and did indeed live in very cold tundra like conditions

They're probably talking about the Grim Expanse map on the game Path of Titans

Ah yes, desert map. Cause nothing is more fun than a map that is 90% sand and open areas without any chance to hide and like 10 % oasis where EVERYONE will just hang out. Face it, a desert map would add NOTHING in terms of gameplay and would be a nightmare to grow on because you can´t ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hide.
Any form of development towards such a map would be a huge waste of time. As a mod in the future, sure whatever. I guess some people just wanna sit at an oasis and chat with their friends. But that is not what this game is about

I would suggest it's not just a map on it's own, just an area in a larger map, it's there for those that can live there, fast runners, able to survive long trips with no water and food, deserts looks amazing but can be deadly, which I find lovely

As for concealment, that would depend on the type of desert, rocky deserts, vegetated deserts, or sandy deserts, even in sandy deserts the dunes themselves act as a visible barrier if travelling below their peaks

They do wanna add dust clouds (inspiration from a herd of buffalo stampeding across a dusty ground), most likely to more than just the Galli. It'd make desert combat and herds in general interesting if all dinos kicked up sand as they ran there, though it may only be a feature for the swifter dinos or require a group size for the larger ones.
