what the...? I didn't know there is such a difference in stam by getting height with tapping 😮 that's the most useful ptera tip I ever saw so far. thx mate ♥ keep them coming 😃
I see people miss this one all the time :). That's why I called it the most important one. It gives Ptera so much more flight time, which = fun time.. glad these tips are good. Is a lot of beginner stuff.
Although your comment section has made me see just how much important the "simple" is.
Please continue to let me know how my tutorial is, the feed back would be useful. :)
I feel like I'm covering things as they are needed?. Would you agree?
Oh that and with perfect diet, your really golden. Ptera is at its best with perfect diet. You can really notice it.
I hunt players for the organs to maintain my diet, only when adult though.
I can't wait to share the next part of how to do it. :)
@@soulfullcreations7308 so true. many new players arrive all the time and the game doesn't explain anything. therefore I am pretty sure these videos will be useful to a lot of people. so, I think the basics tips are very important, too.
let's be real, most tutorials out there focus on PVP only. at least the ones which pop up in my recommendations. but, many people don't even know how to track properly. so many keep asking me how to follow tracks. I was thinking of making a tutorial about it once, but, I don't see myself as tutorial channel. so, as soon as you will do a video about how to follow tracks properly, I will give a link to it as answer to everyone who will ask me in the future. more easy than explaining it over and over 😁
the point is tho, there are plenty of things in this game which people don't know. I have 3.5k hours and didn't know that tapping is such a big difference 😊
about feedback. I wonder if you are a native English speaker, because if so, then I would rather speak. specially in a tutorial it can be a distraction to read. I know it's weird coming from the bubble guy 🤣
Valid points thank you Mombie.
I wasn't really going to focus a lot on mechanic stuff as an alone subject as that changes a lot. More as pick the Dino you want to play, and here are the methods in which you can survive with. Showing some mechanics along the way to show how they connect to the play style.
Ie it's not just the tapping that will get you efficient flight, it's the combination of flightpath also. You can't expect to tap and fly vertical. You put the methods together. I had tapped like this before the stamina changes were in place.
The stamina changes are really good. Its shows Exhaustion, and the difficulties in recovering from Exhaustion once your stamina gets too low. Much like real life.
These mechanics are in place to force you into behaving like a pteranodon posiibly once did.
But as for tracking, I'll show that stuff as the Dino needs it. Pteranodon doesn't really need to track anything other then blood. But that will be shown in the next episode.
These are methods which I believe will be the things that outlast mechanic changes, as the methods are like the philosophy of which the game wants you to play with and what I think the devs are going for. So hopefully it won't become redundant. Kind of trying to instill some critical thinking into the player base, so people dont quickly just blame good mechanics on bad methods.
But you are right, I would be able to explain that easier by talking, which was my original plan if I had my microphone cables hahaha.
Which begs the question, can I edit the video and upload it again. Like video maintenance without deleting and starting again with RUclips?
@@soulfullcreations7308 I like the idea behind. specially on focusing on the most important stuff. the survival aspect and some quality of life tips to grow you specific dino more easy. like your perfect diet tips and so on. I ain't the biggest fighter, but knowing these things makes it so much more easy to grow and keep my dino easily alive. that's the experience which helps you way more than PVP only. PVP is step two imo. first you have to know how to grow them and keep them alive while looking for a proper fight 😁
you don't have to convince me. I am a huge fan of the stam change in general. I just think some dinos still need some tweaks here and there. I very much thought ptera needs some love in that regard, but, I have to see. the tapping looks promising. yet, if I imagine to build a nest up on a tree and have to tap circle the tree 10 times with sticks, then it still doesn't sound enjoyable to me. could be wrong tho. we will see 😃 but, I never was a fan of the fact that stam didn't play a huge part in evrima. so, I like that change a lot.
jeez mate. I don't know to be honest. I mean, there is a tool which let's you change certain parts. but, I don't know if you can change the whole video. I never tried that so far. but, specially at the beginning you can change your style imo. it just shows that you improve from my point of view.
Here from Mombie, wanna give a big ol thank you for this! Really good tips and I can't wait to try it out.
No problem! Glad they are useful :). If you are finding anything else difficult, or need another explanation, feel free to ask :)
Wow, this is the best explanation video I've found so far. Thank you for taking such a good look at the mechanics and showing how they work. Very helpful!👌
The video should get significantly more attention and likes!❤
Many hours of trial and error in game, haha. So I thought id save some pain. Though I'm glad my way of explaining is digestible.
Thanks mate, I appreciate :)
Hi, Flyers! So if you have watched the last 2 Episodes you should have the tools necessary for finding all your nutritional needs, no matter where you are.
This episode we will learn about flight efficiency, and some key navigational techniques.
with these 3 episodes you should be able to leave the nest and start exploring confidently, without fear of starvation or becoming lost.
The next episode will be PVP and Scavenging - Some great combat tips - A safe way to practice your attacks - how to source all your nutritional needs from organs - Scent UI.
Stay Tuned, Its the fun Tutorial!!
Looks like I've been playing Ptera wrong this all time . Thanks
Been saying this for ages when people are complaining about Ptera stamina, its not a problem as long as you do not play it as if it was a rocket flying straight up and keep tapping to gain altitude with every or every other wing beat.
Nice to see someone put it into video form for all the lazy people!
Edit: Oh I did not see you mentioning sprint flying, its also a big part of a efficient flying.
If you fly up to a decent altitude you can then hold sprint for 2-3 seconds to gain speed but what a lot of people do not know is that you keep this speed without it costing any stamina as long as you keep gliding. Basically as long as you do not GAIN altitude you keep the extra speed while flying, the moment you tap to fly up you lose the extra speed. Works the same with speed gained from diving/losing altitude as well.
This lets you travel fast anywhere since even a much shorter "sprint tap" costing barely any stamina is still a speed boost that you can keep until you need to gain altitude again.
Sprint flying is great for that!
In These short Tutorials I was mainly focusing on what people were complaining about and what I had seen people struggle with, so I completely missed it. So thanks for the comment. :)
Plus I don't utilize it all that much either, only when I'm in a rush or hunting, Which as Ptera i'm hardly ever in a rush lol.
but most my speed comes from diving and dropping from a height.
Because as you stated as soon as you press your fly button that momentum is dead, not that tapping your sprint cost that much in Stam anyway.
But totally agree with the shooting up like a rocket haha. I like to watch Eagles fly and taken a lot of my flight methods from them really. Hence the Stam changes never effected me because I had always played this way.
Also, people like to fly over stuff at the cost of stamina, when you could glide around obstacles for free. hence why flight paths are extremely important.
Thanks mate,
If you play on AU severs id love to play with other confident Ptera players :)
@@soulfullcreations7308 Im mainly on the EU servers and sadly dont play Ptera nearly as much as I sometimes would want to, its nice just gliding around dumping fish on random people 🐟
There is a lot in this game we still don't understand, well done
Thank you :),
and I agree, In some ways I am glad they hide a lot of the meta information, like Stamina threshold, health, and other aspects. because it makes you play a little more cautious to the creature you are. But It would be interesting to see some science on a few things.
Anyway, thanks for your comment :)
Jesus i was praying for finding this video
absolutely stellar !!!! !!
this and the other episodes have been the most relaxing, to-the-point, practically useful and comprehensive guides to isle ptera ive ever seen.
have to say i felt burned out fishing and climbing (incorrect exhausting method) and resting constantly and was about to not touch pteranodon again... but learning that there's a better way makes me thrilled to give it another shot.
i have taken physical notes and sketches to remember these tips by lol . . .
thank you SO much \o_
Thank you!!!
I am very glad you are giving it another shot! as Ptera is the best haha.
Another little tip: Try not to let your stamina fall below the 60% mark, as anywhere below that passes a game mechanic threshold, which will make your recover a lot longer. I like to think of anywhere below as your emergency stamina.
Also, just because you can fly over it, doesn't mean you cant fly around it. haha, we have no cost of stam when we can just fly around stuff. and it helps creating those resistance free paths :).
Any other questions feel free to ask, I don't mind doing vids to help illustrate what I am trying to say, so feel free. :)
Thanks again for your positive words :)
@@soulfullcreations7308 ooooh!! many thanks. i love this mindset stuff
i applied all of these strategies and grew two flourishing pteranodons last night and today !!!
first one was bled out by a beip (in somewhere around 20 seconds flat w0w those claws work fast),
but my second one i just ran down my first player baby cerato and killed it.
and THEN defended the organs from two full grown carnos that tried to steal it, by running down THEIR stamina too! and baiting their alt bites!! and biting their heads!!!!!
long story short they went running into the forest and my second ptera lives another day with 100% perfect diet \o/
also taught a new player the ways of the efficient fliers ✨
amazing day today o7
Thank you for this i needed this
Finally! A video where The Isle UI is explained, and in a very nice way, indeed! Thank you so much. Believe me when I tell you that I have been looking for a tutorial like this for years. Do you have videos explaining other dinos as well? I came here after watching one of Mombi's videos.
Hey mate! Thank you for checking it out!.
I could work on some other dinos in the same format.
From someone perspective and new to the game, what else would you like to see?
Surviving tactics as a stegosaurus? and carno?
To be honest my favourite dinos are ptera, carno, troodon and occasionally stegosaurus.
But I feel I'm pretty adapt to most the critters.
So let me know what you believe is necessary and needed and I'll make some :).
Thanks again! And stoked Mombie gave ptera a go and a shout out.
Bless.
@@soulfullcreations7308 Thanks for your reply. I definitely enjoy more playing as a herbi rather than a carni. I love playing stego, however the way to adulthood is challenging... If you could do a video about surviving tactics for stego and beipi that would be great!
@@fransung will do my friend :).
Thanks for advice! I'll try get that out this week for you :)
@soulfullcreations7308 Thank you so much. But there's no rush! I'm quite busy with work this week, so I'm not playing as much as I would like to
incredible this incredibly usefull information espeicaly since ptera became so much less fun after the stamina changes , thank you !
Thanks for watching! and I'm even more happy it has helped :) you get really good buffs from perfect diet. I highly recommend it for adult Ptera. as a baby i don't think it matters, as growth isn't really that long anyway. and if you have any questions, I'm happy to help if I can. :)
Here from Mombi. Thank you for the valuable tip. Gaining altitude was always my stamina hog. Now, its much better thanks to you 😁 Just wondering, do you just tap along the wing flap or hold and release with every wing flap?
Hey mate! Thanks for stopping by. :)
I tap to the each completed wing cycle, so as your wings start to come back up I tap it again to create another cycle. Although I change it up depending on what my path is. If it's a steeper climb then it will be just a consistent rhythmic tapping motion too suit the climbs needs,
I only will ever hold fly, when an obstacle appears in front of me without having any prior preparation to avoid it.
Remember it's sometimes more effective to just go around an obstacle rather then over it, it make flight more enjoyable in my opinion,
But if your going for a long distant flight, start your accent from further away, while choosing your least resistant path.
I watch Eagles fly a lot and I had taken it from them haha. Although it's not exactly the same but the method of flight path/efficiency is very similar. Small birds are different. :).
Also, If you watch ptera as soon as you press (not hold) it will pitch up. that's why a light tap,
and really what you are trying to do is to avoid it to fall into decent like in the gliding animation, so just before it falls into the glide animation your pretty much breaking that cycle from happening.
I just tap in beat of wings because it looks more natural when flying it, and I'm all about the immersion in this game :)
@@soulfullcreations7308 Thank you! 😁 I hope the devs introduce air current in the next update to help with gaining altitude. We can already hear wind in the game since the last update.
@@Hakou27000DZ me too!! I hope they do it right through and not just some random pockets here and there like wind tunnels. Be awesome to catch up drafts against the mountains and valleys etc.
From kissins last talks on discord sound like a few new thing will be added. So hopefully with all these mechanics added it will feel even more bird like :).
Also please let me know how you go on your next play through. :)
@@soulfullcreations7308 I tried your altitude technique and now I barely go below 70% of constant flying and so little rest 😁😁
hi, so
when you mean tap spacebar you mean tap or hold for half a second ?
what are good mutations for ptera ?
and i think you forgot to mention not to use w
oh and where do you play ? just curious
5:55 thats nice you could do it but i think most people just want to fly a flyer
also, is it true next patch gonna buff ptera ?
oh and of course thank you for the video i didnt know half of these
Hi mate :)
So for best efficiency, when you are in glide animation, just tap your flight button, you will see the change in animation. You just want to initiate the next animation. So on the up stroke of the wing I tap it, not hold just tap. And on the down stroke I do the same.
I did a another video explaining that a little further.
Good mutations... hmm I think that depends on what you are trying to achieve with that life.
My go too and anything that makes my attack stronger and with also the slower decay of nutrients. That's me though.
For you it might be different.
I play on AU1 server.
And at 5.55 I was showing the benefits of flying with the terrain rather against it. It will make flight more enjoyable as well as save you stamina.
That demonstration was an extreme case, so you can see what I was talking about :).
I think some new things are coming to ptera, not exactly sure when, but apparently some new animations and mechanics. But we will see haha.
And thanks for watching! I'm glad you got something out of it :)
Not too efficient. lol If you really want to be a pro, hold W and steer with the mouse. You can also do precise landings or gain altitude without tapping spacebar with this method. 😁
Pros and cons my friend.
From my experience having a slight elevation and holding W doesn't seem to change the efficiency.
If you just sit and tap away you will burn your stam.
But if you tap each cycle of the wing beat breaking the shift in animation into gliding will always keep you in a positive altitude and if done correctly then the efficiency is really good.
The demonstration was a demonstration. Holding w is good for straight lines and dives with a little bit more control. As every degree you move with your mouse changes your efficiency.
You lose a lot of control.
So manoeuvring is limited, as you can't look around while you fly. Which has massive draw backs.
Also I don't seem to have any problems with precise landings?
So I think this may be a preference, rather then pro or not?
But if you you disagree then please show me how it is better :)
I just did a test. Comparing jjfajen tutorial.
I did my method the exact same place from bottom of water access dam to the top and I used 14% of stam, where it cost him 24%. I did a video. So actually it's not even more efficient. but i do have perfect diet in the test, but that's still quite a big difference.
The vid is uploaded, so be a pro and have a look ;)
