J20hawkz Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Curious to know. A number of people have mentioned over at the steam forum that brining a Rocklobster from the caves to the surface is a bad idea. Apparently they reproduce like mad and literally repopulate the surface world. I'd rather not find out first hand. How true is this? Is this intentional?

Misaki Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Yes, they will breed like rabbits.I tried it with my cave explorer friend, I named him Rocky Balboa, because he was guarding me from depth worms, and after I escaped he got lots and lots of children, it is true.However I don't think it was intentional.

MilleniumCount Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I think this is handled like a bug and will be fixed in the future. It is the next beesplosion....not to say rocksplosion 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misaki Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 It is not gonna fix the fact that half of my world is now full of lobsters.At least I have plan B in case of Deerclops....Wait...I think I know why this is here and not in general discussion.This guy wants lobsters to protect him from giants!

MilleniumCount Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I would say a Lobster army wouldn't be the worst tactic of survival against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's here because I wanted to know if it's still in game after the DLC. Maybe Klei stealth patched it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoggoth Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 My guess was that it's an error in the herd mechanics that emerges when there are both beefalo herds and rock lobster herds. We'll have to check how goat herds handle as well when brought close to non-goat herds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J20hawkz Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 Alright. So for now I'll keep Rocklobsters underground and blow up any that follow me to the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridley Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 If you blow the beefalo horn and jump into the cave with nearby beefalos, do they follow? Constant night would make easy fur factories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChesterForHighRulerOfDeath Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Strange, I brought 2 rock lobsters to the surface and once they stopped following me the only thing they cared about was going back home. I guess they just hate me. On a side note I had a whole dramatic scene yelling, "I thought we were friends!!" but I got over it. Mostly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridley Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Have you tried it? Nope. I normally don't bother the beefalo, but i'll try I suppose. I wanted to see if beefalo hat wearing pigs still responded to the horn call anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J20hawkz Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 Hmm...I'll give it a try as well. Although I just slaughtered all the pigs in my village. They were plotting to take over Hawkz Zoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridley Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 They do follow! Edit: Forgot Klei added a day night system to the first cave level. I will have to usher this loser to the ruins now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
