Beasts of Bermuda

Hate the new censorship. If you cant handle a global chat turn it off. If you want to keep censorship just put it on a toggle. Will remove this when something changes because its a cool game.

sadly the official admins perm muted me for speaking out against pedophilia .... this game is a HAVEN for pedos and so is the official discord i would stay far far away from this game and its gross community that allows such behavior

Usually I’m not one to write a review like this, but I am incredibly disappointed in both the state of the game and the controversy behind the development team. A practical atomic bomb went off in the community as a result of poor priority management and incredibly poor PR. In fact, ignoring PR. A few examples; Many bugs have been in the game for years, one flagged people as hackers when they aren't... And this was ignored for 2 years. The game shows EVERYONE if you've been flagged, meaning those people were often ostracized by the community for doing nothing wrong. This isn't even discussing their blatant refusal to acknowledge genuine hacking. Meanwhile, when exclusive skins were leaked, they put a fix in near immediately in a way that harmed the community. The prioritization is incredibly concerning. The lead dev and the development team in general has an... Interesting history. I encourage anyone looking at the game to do their own research where possible, because I can't really get into all of the accusations here. What I can say is the lead dev has, many times, simply told the community to "suck it up" when detrimental changes are made. Some controversial statements he had made in the past also came back into light, and while I'm not one to hold years old statements against people... His response was very telling that he was not remorseful for his remarks. He had never apologized in a meaningful way and stated publicly he "will not respond to cancel culture". In fact, the team took it upon themselves to ban certain members from the community server for speaking out about it. While this was reversed in most cases, it's very telling about their philosophy. This sale is an attempt to regain numbers after they alienated a huge chunk of the playerbase that well and truly loved this game. You can look at the player count and see how significantly it's dropped. They've taken no true accountability for all the damage they've done to the community, the game, and the people that worked closest to them. This will not change, not as long as this team is still in charge of development.

Nobody wants to play a game full of cheaters run by developers that won't do anything about it and require video evidence and for you to open a ticket in their discord. Moderators and admins handle tickets on a case-by-case basis and often will show favoritism. Official servers crash constantly and most of the time, you'll need to ping an on-duty moderator who will then have to ping an admin to restart the server, which can take who-knows-how-long. On-duty moderators are also normally on Away status or Do Not Disturb. Server lag is pretty poor, and a lot of players experienced desynced gameplay and game lag that can be exploitable. The hitboxes on quite a few of the dinosaurs are absolutely ridiculous and are way off, and experienced players or hackers will exploit this heavily. They just don't care about anything besides making money to make up for their losses. The game is extremely broken, often leading to extremely frustrating situations that would be otherwise avoidable entirely if the game would work as intended. This can often involve things like water sources and healing charcoal (used to heal illness) not working, which can of course lead to your dinosaur dying if you are so much as in the wrong place at the wrong time. You'll frequently get stuck on terrain and will be unable to climb correctly, often leading to painful falls that'd be avoidable if the terrain was properly done. You'll also frequently walk into and get stuck on invisible trees. Sometimes your dinosaur will be randomly teleported to a random location on the map, and moderators/admins will not do anything about any of your issues in the game without opening a ticket - and if you don't have evidence, then you can just save yourself the time because they won't do anything. They give known hackers the benefit of the doubt way beyond reasonable limits and refuse to do anything about clans in the game exploiting or using unfair gameplay methods to get ahead in the game basically because they don't want to be mean or exclusive. I don't recommend this game. Play something less frustrating, like maybe League of Legends or Dark Souls. The developers have something great, but instead of fixing their broken game with a multitude of easily fixable issues, they're squandering it because they want to add new dinosaurs and sell snake plushies to entice new game sales and extra revenue, to again, make up for their losses. They also just added a chat filter that censors all swear words and otherwise "inappropriate language." Apparently we can't handle bad language, so I don't think this game can handle a good review.

Predatoria just confirmed he's been friends with and collaborating with a known pedophile and hacker that has been causing trouble in the bob community. And he's banning everyone who talks about it

use to be really good but the player base dropped off pretty hard recently the devs and owner like to ignore bugs and hacks and push content instead and all the issues and lack of help for server owners from the dev team has led to a pretty toxic player base don't get me wrong there are good people and good servers here but they are very few and tend not to last very long

This has to be one of the most uninviting and awful multiplayer experiences i have ever had. Community servers are full of discord fishing schemes like great valley x2. Trying to find a pack mix or not is near impossible unless you've played the game since launch. This game is such an awful experience its no wonder the community is nearly dead even though its early access. Mechanics are fun. Survival is brutal and engaging. The people blow.

Great game but its so overrun by cheaters and the devs/admins/mods on official servers are doing absolutely nothing about it..... Its gotten to the point that they even closed the ability to make tickets on officials.... This game should be renamed on steam to "Cheaters of Bermuda"
