Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn
About
Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn is a first person hunting simulator where you hunt the largest and most dangerous creatures to ever exist – DINOSAURS.
This game is a sequel of the original classic dinosaur hunting video game, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter. It’s an authentic hunting simulation where you track and stalk your prey. Careful and thoughtful consideration must be taken during the hunt; to survive you'll need to know your preys temperament and mannerisms, and just like in real hunting, you need to be aware of your surroundings (you don't want to be caught upwind of a T-Rex or you'll end being lunch). Remember you're not hunting deer, you're hunting dinosaurs.
You’ll visit huge, beautifully rendered and realistic 3D environments, each with their own unique Eco systems. There are pristine beaches, dense jungles, pine forests, muddy marshes, rocky plains and deserts to explore. Environments can be used to increase the odds of a successful hunt. Players can follow trails and track animal footprints. Awareness of wind direction is important since some dinosaurs can smell you. Using stealth and land elevation will give you a sound advantage over some of the more vicious dinosaurs.
Choose between a high caliber rifle, sniper rifle, a silent crossbow or tranquilizer gun, which puts your prey to sleep instead of killing it. You can also carry sidearms. Some of your equipment includes a handheld Gadget, which includes radar and GPS satellite positioning to make tracking the beasts easier, Cover Scent which masks your smell and numerous other goodies, which will prove indispensable for your hunting adventure.
There is a wide variety of different dinosaurs to hunt each with unique behaviors and intelligence. Every dinosaur in Carnivores has realistic, advanced AI logic, so from species to species , each will react differently to you. Some dinosaurs will flee if they see you, while others will become enraged and attack. During your adventure you'll experience everything from "pea-brained" dummies to cunning dinosaurs, with heightened senses of sight, hearing and smell. So be careful and stalk your prey intelligently, otherwise you might be the one being hunted.key Features:

As a Fan of the old primal carnival of 1998, of course, I'm a bit pre-loaded. Even then, the Game principle and Game Mechanics were great and something for adventurous Casual Gamers.
Little Has changed in that regard. I think it's amazing what the Developers have put on their Feet with the tight Budget.
The Menus are simple but functional, there are no big Hiring deserts. Unfortunately, the Graphics adjustment is also a bit meagre, you can only determine the Resolution, Grass quality and Height of the LOD. But That's enough to reach quite liquid Framerates 45 +, even with my antiquated Phenom II X4 965 and a GTX460.
The Graphics themselves are rather mediocre and could mainly benefit from higher resolution Textures. But this is not so tragic, because the Levels are all very coherent and varied, be it Far Cry-Arcaptured jungle regions, Deserts or Coniferous Forests.
The Soundscape is also atmospheric, you can hear distant Screams of the Dinosaurs, flies Buzzing around, Water splashing from the Shore ...
And then you see Dinosaurs. They are wonderfully animated and you also get good Respect for Size. Unfortunately, they get stuck to Tree Trunks or Stones in a panic more often, here the finding Of The path might be a bit more accurate.
As far as hunting Opportunities are concerned, we are somewhat limited. Gun Selection is limited to Rifle, Crossbow, Sniper and Gun. However, there are Ways to upgrade them and thus optimize Weight or magazine size.
In Addition, a GPS device was introduced as an innovation. This serves as a Map, Binoculars, Visibility Sensor, Evacuation Tool ...
As in the other Games of the Series, you can use Additional Equipment against The loss Of Winning points, E.g. a Camouflage suit as a Visual protection, dino position radar, vulnerability indicator of the Dinos ...
In Summary, it's worth the £15, and old carnivores fans can access with peace of mind. For the Prize you get a strong Game with a lot Of Nevenkitzel-not once, after successful Hunting, a Carnotaurus suddenly appeared behind me and provided a neat fright.
For me, the Game was a definite no brainer. And anyone who asks themselves the ethical Question of whether it is right to kill Dinosaurs ... Think about what you do in Call of Duty ...
After All, there is the Possibility for all Animal Lovers to only Stun the Dinos, as well as a pure Observation Mode.
To Conclude my Pro's and Con's: Pro'S:-vocal Atmosheres-great Animations-great maps-Motivating Unlock system-plain and structured menu-real carnivores feel-the Price Con's:-low-resolution Textures-only three Areas-moderate Choice of Dinosaurs
