no more tarbos? That makes me sad. the tarbosaurus is my favorite dino and the paleo mod had the only one that looks great. Hope you will change your mind and bring him back at some point.

We love it

As someone who grew up with horses, it always bothered me that they had bits (the "bar" in the mouth). The bit only works on a horse because all their teeth are at the front of their mouths and it rests between the rear gums (some types press against the soft palette at the top of the mouth to apply pressure, which can really hurt the horse - there's been a big movement toward bitless riding.) It always felt clunky and unnecessary to me to have them in the game since it can be difficult for horses to eat with bits in their mouths. It's especially strange for creatures with beaks - they would not be able to close their mouths at all, let alone be fed. Edit to add: this is a fantastic twist on the carchar tame. It reminds me of Fang and Spear from Primal - building up trust and partnership. The model and everything are also super high quality! I've been looking forward to PALEO ARK and it seems like it was worth the wait!

@DarkEdgeTVSurvival

Yeesss, Fang and Spear is such a great comparison! And agreed entirely regarding the bar, a lot of us aren't a fan of it and I'm glad we're just doing away with them entirely

I love how it has forward facing eyes aka binocular vision compared to the original because we know tyrannosaurus has amazing eyesight

Thank you! It was incredibly important to get that right for us!

It's good to see Ark rex get the love it's deserves after so many years, and yes it got a TLC but, tbh it was more like a new look than anything.

That zero point turning should ABSOLUTELY be a feature on as many large turn radius creatures as possible!! I love it!!

I love how this makes taming feel like your become friends with a creature, not knocking it out and gaslighting it as if you were always its friend.

I’m so glad there’s no Bit in the mouth. Even gentleness aside, the giant cylinder in a reptile mouth makes no sense, they wouldn’t be able to close their mouth at all. (Bary is a great example of this) and specifically what rhe dumbest thing about them is most of the Dinos with bits don’t have reins connecting the bit to the rider, so they literally are pointless and would not do anything irl 😂

Also, I’m no expert, but I don’t think that having your mount bite down on enemies is very viable when you have a big metal pole in its mouth, it just seems like the last thing you’d put on a T. rex of all things

Most gorgeous tyrannosaurus design I have seen in a hot minute. I adore the way it strikes a fine line between paleo accuracy and the stylization of Ark, having stylized bits and bobs and even some proportions on animals is something I tend to do on my own doodles and such. If Ark ever gets to a better state I will so be using Paleo Ark and Ark additions all the time; thanks for the showcase ♥

Im so excited for this, tyrannosaurus has needed a spruce up for a while in ark

oh shit no way, I didn't realize either

One of my favourite little details I noticed is that the blood effects that get thrown up from the bite change to match the creature! When you were fighting regular critters, red blood, but with the big brood the blood effects were a bright buggy green. Genuinely in awe of the kinds of things the modding community can make, and I love being a part of such a talented community!

I CANT WAIT ANYMORE FOR CONSOLE REALESE! I AM SO FUCKING HYPED FOR THIS

This is it the time has come where modders take over and get ark to that documentary level in terms of dino looks

That's so sweet. I love you guys, thank you

This looks INFINITELY better than the cartooney toy-like appearance of the base game T-rex. It doesn’t necessarily have to be ultra-accurate to real life, but having a more grounded design that makes sense anatomically and zoologically, just improves the immersion so much, and makes them look more feasible as actual animals, rather than giant toy plushies. I wish I had this mod. It looks so good.

YES LETS GO AAAAAAAAAAA IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! I'm so proud of the team

Aaaahhhhhhhhhh! This is such a fascinating taming method. I love the model, the taming, the attacks, everything!

ahhh, I need to catch up on this series! Its so cool seeing familiar names in the credits of who did what I never really considered the ark trex ugly. It looks decent. But the Modded Rex is just so gorgeous I wonder what a Paracar would look like revamped XD

I love the look of the Evo version, still a little stylized but much more realistic.

absolutely beautiful 🔥

Oh my...this new rex is stunning.

Gotta love the Paleo ARK TLCs, especially from an animation perspective (as I do think that a lot of base Ark creatures are lacking in that department, namely: the Rex, Giga, and Carchar. I do think they did a great job with the Gigantoraptor though). The ability to press space to turn also reminds me of the Sauroposeidon entry in the Extinction creature vote, giving the larger creatures a method to be more tolerable to control.

Its 4000 subscribers SOON. Congratz already 🥳This makes me want to play ASA and download the mod when it release. Looks incredible

I was holding off on breeding rexes to wait for these guys, glad to know I could just swap them over!!

wow this looks incredible, I love it actually has binocular vision, ark rex can finally look straight ahead! wish they used a design like this for ark 2

Wow! This might actually get me back into Ark.

I can’t wait to play with this

OMG, the attacks look so good! The Tyrant King so needs this put in the base game!

The walking animation is beautiful and the size looks very fitting I love it when Rexes are more of these graceful animals rather than big tanks made of teeth.

I love how modders are doing more for ark than wildcard is lol. Fantastic work, the Evo rex looks amazing!

Excited to try out this new rexxy!!

I had thought about making a mod Rex and giving it a Deinosuchus style Giga bite, but decided it’s bite should be unique. I had settled on a holding left click latching mechanic like the stego that would deal damage in one second ticks for 4 seconds. The first second would deal 1x damage followed by 2x at 2sec, 3x at 3sec, and 4x at 4 sec. If you held the bite to completion it would give a bone break debuff, slowing the target for a while.

I like the leaner rex definitly the rex we shouldve gotten when Rex originally got its official TLC. However it would be nice to have a bulky variant with more armored scutes on its hide. Better for Offense. You know about that old debate of there being different rex sub species. T Rex, T Regina, and T. Imperator. Would be cool to add those in with slightly different abilities/appearances and slight Roar variations. This new rex would be T. Regina. The one I proposed would be Bulkier, Quite a but larger but slower and would be T. Imperator. Then T. Rex would be somewhere in the middle. This is my random idea that could help add more diversity without going to crazy.

21:05 ive never alt tabbed so fast in my life i though that Moro was in my game XD

I still can't believe where Darkedge has gone (in a positive way!) when I subscribed this was a channel that made beautiful spore creatures then came the sculpt videos with that one program (forgot name), and when Dark first played Ark I was like "hey, that's funny wonder what she'll think of the game I have been playing for years" never did I imagine she would become an ark mod reviewer and less that she would be a paleo ark team member (with upfromthedetphs which I could repeat this story with but with that I knew from from the small ark creature stories). I'm proud of where things have led! and am ready for many more surprises

We're not TLCing the Spino (a "realistic spino" would not work in ARK's current meta) buuuuttt we do have a special Spinosaurid planned, and one of our team members is also working on his own independent Spinosaurus mod 👀 so no TLCs but definitely more options on the way

WHEN MOTHER! Can't w8 any longer!!! 🤗

Since my base is on Carno island on the south east off shoot, I may finally need to build a wall to keep these new rexes out. For safety purposes of course. To protect my own collection of evo creatures once they come out.

this is really cool. I have a server set up and i have it set to be longer in terms of progression also helps to make lesser dinos more useful at least in the first few weeks. This rex seems to be alot easier to tame especially since you dont really need much besides a little meat. As where before youd need a ton of exceptional kibble. The vid makes it seem like youd only need a few? Also, love these vids you do for mods. Exactly what i was looking for and indepth too!

They look great, I think Wildcard needs to offer the makers of this a job. The only problem I see is it seems to be more prone to do the swipe attack instead of the bite, which may cause problems in the boss fights.
