So I only played it for it little bit because I had other stuff to do and I got to say I am impressed. I will list down what I thought about it based on what I saw was added.
Hunting: Now before, all of the carnivore will go nuts and kill everything even when its hunger meter is up. Now I have noticed that all carnivores (minus the hybrids) will only hunt if their hunger meter is low. I did a test on almost all of the carnivores ( didn't test the raptors and the dilo's but will test it later) So far I noticed that they will hunt if they are hungry. Though I suspected that they will hunt if their meter is on the red rather than 70 to 60 % of their hunger meter. What I also noticed is that when they are near a group of herbivores, the herbivores will run away but will run towards the carnivore rather than away from it.
Camera: Camera view looks amazing. It is working well for me and allows me to get a good look at the dino's in my paddock. I like the idea of having the monorail and the hotel having viewing cameras as well
Spino roar: The new spino roar sounds amazing. I can hear a hint of the classic roar the spino made from JP3. Though when I heard the end of the roar, it sounded off a bit. [video=youtube;PnF0my-D0gc]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnF0my-D0gc[/video] Skip to 7:41
Territorial: The territorial display looks great. But one problem I kinda see is that when I have two large carnivore, they kind of walk either beside each other or they are completely oblivious that their is a carnivore 5 feet away from them. I was expecting this (If a carnivore see's another carnivore, it will make a territorial display such as making a low growl and scuffing their feet like a bull. Then if the other carnivore ignores it, then they walk to each other then proceed with the fight). I like the idea of when their meter is low, they call off the fight then go their separate ways. I have not tested this yet on the herbivores (pachy, trike, anky, stego, etc.)
Size: The size of the three big carnivores looks amazing! the giga is no longer this mini carnivore (even though I did not had any problem with haha) but I still love this massive improvement. Really gives the dino its name. The T-rex looks kind of the same to me haha. The spino looks great and it really shows the size of this creature. Looks great when battling the T-rex. The cerato looks great. I did not had a problem with the size (I would have much perfered the sucho to be sized up the same height and length as the allo in my opinion). Overall, the new size of the carnivores looks amazing!
Few thoughts: So far the update looks pretty good. Didn't try out the challenge mode yet and will probably tonight. The AI of the dino improved a bit, but needs more improving (herding, sleeping, pack hunting, etc.) I hope these will be in the next update so that we can all see some group dynamics and bring some more realism to these creatures. If there is other stuff I missed, let me know and tell me what you think of it. Keep up the update frontier.
