    It plays fine on original iPhone, just remember to reboot your device first.
    And yeah, I agree with everyone else in that this games is totally awesome, it's now one of my favourite games on my iPhone.

    Agreed. It's a shame we don't see more games like this - the iPhone/iPod Touch is perfectly capable. Gameloft are doing a pretty good job of porting some of the PS1 games like Driver and Rayman 2, but it would be nice to see some more classics like Goldeneye 007 and maybe some of the Rainbow Six games.

    Awesome, I was a huge fan of Carnivores on the PC. This one's going on the shopping list.

    dinosaur problem?

    Like all the "Carnivores" in the game, they attack you when they see/hear/ or get shot. But the dinosaur "Chasmosaurus" just acts like a normal herbivore and runs away when shot. But it clearly states that if you wound it, it will come after you. In the pc version, if you shoot it, it will run after you. So it must be a little error that slipped, but the game is still 99.9% perfect port! Except no cheat codes :(

    P.S: Port Carnivores 2, Ice Age, and Cityscape!

    WOA.. I agree! Rainbow Six games should be ported to iPhones or, better yet, they should make a completely new ones to complement iPhone's touch screen!

    Carnivores ended with Ice age ! Cityscape was an abomination and it should never be mentioned anywhere :mad: . Carnivores 3: Ice Age was the best part of the trilogy. I hope that I'll play it someday on my ipod :D

    fact of the matter is that few companies outside of Gameloft are willing to sell games of this quality at this price. More power to you if you want to create a game of this caliber, only to turn around and sell it for 4.99. Such is the exception though and not the norm. More games like this or the stuff Gameloft produces should be costing us $19.99 or 29.99 or 39.99. Those are the pricetags that it would take to get the majority of major multi-platform console devs seriously involved in the idevice. Epic has already proven they can run the unreal engine on the idevice, but an iPhone version of Gears of War isn't sell for 9.99 or even 12.99. It would probably have to sell for 29.99. Obviously, Epic doesn't believe people would buy it at a truly premium price. So, guess what. They ain't gonna even both making it in the first place.

    anyone who is playing this and have over 1000 points, when you play the last map at night, with t rex or any carnivore, does the game just automatically freeze, but you still hear everything?

    Hey Tatem!

    Seriously, that poster said it all. I picked this up on the off-chance, never really expected it to be so engrossing, but it is! A quick question though... are you planning to add any more to this?

    Pleeeeeeeease?

    I think so. I've never been interested in this genre, generally turning the other way when it comes to "stealth shooter" type games, but I was pleasantly surprised with this one - to the extent that it actually sucked up quite a lot of the weekend. :eek: So, very keen to hear more about what's coming - hopefully a wider range of weapons, dinosaurs and maps (although, in truth, the maps are huge and I'm still trying to get to terms with them).

    If anyone's on the fence about this, I'd say highly recommended :D and don't let the dross that was out there before this put them off.

    On a separate note, is there anything you can do with the collision detection systems - on quite a few times both myself, and other creatures have been able to walk through each other! This is quite an achievement considering their mass.

    does this game freeze when your on the last map at night mode?
     
  16. ataloss

    ataloss Well-Known Member

    Nope, that's not happened to me. Sorry. :eek:

    Just a thought, Tatem, would it be possible to introduce a random mode that chooses the dinosaurs, and the map (including time) but allows the player to choose the weapons? I think that would increase the playability heaps. ;)

    Is there a free play mode where you can go around and just take out whatever dinosaur you see? or just explore and look at the different dinosaurs? Also what kinds of weapons are in it? just rifles and the like?

    EDIT: Nevermind, I just went and read the description. I'm totally getting this!!!

    GREAT game. I've never played the PC version so I was totally new to this, but I poured out hours into the iPhone version (received a preview build). I don't know why anyone wouldn't pick it up.

    1. Unique
    2. Great controls
    3. Plenty of weapons
    4. Hours of gameplay
    5. Survival mode is a bonus
