Tbh i don’t really care, it’s a fun game and it’s one of my fav games, and if it’s fun it doesn’t change anything, and i think if we give them enough time it’ll be great after all!

I’m still gonna watch when you fell like uploading

best thing that came from this game were the roblox groups

ererer

1.3 version of 2013 is still better, that's my biggest problem with extinction 1 - It was supposed to be a big update for the original game 2 - Became a "Primal Carnage 2" for whatever reason 3 - was and still is generally worse than 1.3 4 - feels like a mobile game converted into a console game and then converted into a pc one, gameplay wise 5 - still has a ton of bugs and performance issues 6 - role-playing/no killing matches killed the pvp 7 - devs only care for that dino money 8 - the community stinks ~ the only things I liked about extinction was more guns for humans and Ceratosaurus

Trapper was always my favorite class as well. =)

As a rare aussie player who was an admin of the Emu Wars server (Sassy_matee was my old username). I used to play this back during 2019 days. When the game was "coming back from the dead" era when maps were coming out, we all thought this game was gonna have a good progress with updates and bring a new demograph in but we figured out around 2020 - 2021 days the skin spam was a show proof that the game is not making any progress.. that's when we decided to leave the game behind and from what I've seen from your vid, we predicted it right but i will say one benefit from this game is the friends i made from this game and we still hangout from time to time.. Good vid btw mikester

I sort of understand the toxic community, being a dinosaur is one of the hardest challenges nature has made anything face

There needs to be another server that is as good as Deperra’s carnage

Oh sweet summer child, wait until you get into 'FINAL DOOM' with The Plutonia Experiment and TNT Evilution. You'll quickly realize that Sandy Peterson levels are absolute masterpieces compared to Casali levels...

It makes me sad that the current Steam version has the "HD models" as default. The NPC models are terrible and I don't think the gun changes were required. I played HL in my formative years. It stayed on my HDD for almost a decade, as I played almost every mod going, which is saying something when HDD space was at a premium back then. (I was scared to uninstall it as I lost the box which contained the CD key!) What upsets me about modern AAA games is how many of them failed to learn the lessons Half-Life taught us back in 98, and how so many of these games appear to be controlled by failed movie directors who ended up making games instead. I'm here to game, not to watch, and HL understood that.

i mostly hate extinction for its movements and gunplay, they feel horrible and glitchy, plus theres zero weight to the guns when firing, and tyrants dont feel huge and feels weak playing as them. the original primal carnage flows great with it's movement and gunplay, and the guns feel powerful, and the tyrants feel and play like proper tank classes. i know graphics dont make a game fun, but im a believer of balance, so both good gameplay and good graphics, extinction's graphics are saturated and cartoonish and not visually nice to look at, again compared to the original game that has more realistic looking graphics for it's time, yeah its kinda outdated now but the art direction for the maps looked great, even back then! btw, primal carnage extinction is using unreal engine 3, and playing the game on modern hardware it performances really bad even with a 4090! its not the devs fault though, its that unreal engine 3 isn't made for modern hardware, but i think its a bit crap the devs are stuck on unreal engine 3, should of made a sequel using unreal 4 or 5.

DONT YOU DARE TALK SHIT ABOUT TRICKS AND TRAPS!!!!

bro i was 7 in 93, if u can sell this to me.... your on right track!

I have to agree that DOOM 2 felt at times as a fan made game. Levels with 10000 switches sucked , i wanna shoot stuff not trying to decypher the way towards Atlantis. They also did a lot of levels where they spammed demons to the point you had to plan the levels at higher difficulties. At least the super shotgun made game more enjoyable.

Wow I didn’t know such bad takes still exist.

It's pretty crazy hearing a zoomer make a documentary about something I experience first hand. Is this what boomers feel like when they watch Vietnam documentaries?! Anyway, you touch on an important point here: Doom was mail order, but Doom 2 was now in stores. It was made to cash in on Doom's success and be a literal sequel, as sequels back then were often "the same thing but more". If you've not read 'Masters Of Doom' or 'Doom Guy: Life in First Person', you really should! You'll see that when Doom 2 was being made ID had gone wide and was licensing out the engine, so had to support that, at the same time as working on Doom 2. Hence why some of the level design is terrible. And because the team had been working on Doom they were now experienced in making levels for it, so they got quite "experimental" here started to do all of those puzzly levels instead of the "just shoot stuff" ones. You mentioned looking at the designers of each level -- you'll notice that Romero did the best levels in Doom 1 and 2. If you can be bothered, give SIGIL a go. But Romero was also in charge of all the bizdev stuff and ports, so Doom 2 lost his touch. [edit: and also he spent a huge number of working hours playing Doom online, much to Carmack's disapproval] The Master Levels is another cash grab. ID basically downloaded every .wad they could find on usenet and then stuck it on a CD. There's a huge amount of dross on there. Personally my favourite is Doom 1. I appreciate some of Doom 2's levels, weapons and engine innovations, and the Arch Vile still strikes horror into my heart when I hear it's chuckling like no other monster has yet to achieve, but when playing Doom 2 I often long for the simpler levels with just the single shotgun. ps: Doom 3 is the worst in the series, imo. Hopefully you find something good in it. Try to play the OG version if you can so that you're forced to use the flashlight OR a gun. You could also look at Quake 1 for another perspective on Doom.

Doom 2’s soundtrack wasn’t a borderline ripoff of popular metal songs, hence why it wasn’t as good

Classic game

Didn't even know that people hate it 😂

I remember back when this game was released people were hating on it, I actually liked it and wanted to see the potential of what they'd do with it, but I stopped playing it back in 2017 or so since it got boring and tedious with no more content coming since I thought the game was dead then, and how Hunt was removed always bothered me since that's one of the gamemodes I really wanted to play.

Half-Life 2 is absolutely the GOAT.

Don’t entirely agree with you but you got some valid points

Damn i see some nice kills that you got (way better then me at shooting and hitting said enemy)

9:23 the part that killed my enjoyment of pce is this the free roam community is weird like there's the players that go human and are a one man army there's the players that show off their skins and there's the worst players the nsfw players now these players are the reason i stopped playing pce. Also I'm a ps5 player this issue is present on ps5 aswell also i have no problem with the one man army players and the players the show off their skins im referring specifically to the nsfw players killing my enjoyment of this glitchy but great game

The raptor pounce glitch still being in the game is insane to me. I havent played the game in years and its still in it. Lol

Sick

This was very helpful! I've been an on/off player for about 4 years now and I never really read/watched any tips or tricks vids and just learnt on my own, but this vid was very very helpful! You're funny and actually kept me engaged LOL I may be trash now but hopefully I'll get a tad better

ah yes another freeman...

It’s full of degenerates, ddosers, pedophiles and abusive admins. The devs ruined the economy years ago and it has never recovered, they just keep pushing out expensive skins you can’t sell on the market. At one point during 2022 it had gotten to the point where server owners would ddos each other just to get more players on their server, the worst offender of this was a player named golden kid who would constantly ddos everyone for 8 hours a day. The only way to play the game is on official tdm servers which is fun, but gets boring quickly. Cheaters are everywhere even if it doesn’t look like it, and the devs refuse to listen when you expose these cheaters. You have to go to their discord and beg the discord mods to tell the devs about any problem regardless of how bad it is. Stay away from this game

My opinions for this game are for sure more biased and I do accept that they most likely aren't the most objective, but, I still feel like alot of the critisism people share on PCE does not take in credit the game's age and the development team's size. I don't speak inherently about what you said, more like the general "why does the bug-fixing take such slow time", "why do they not add new classes/weapons/gamemodes/..." and especially "why do they keep pumping out so many cosmetics and not rather fix the game". Cosmetics are items done entirely by the community and help bring some slight income into the game's piggy bank, and while the price tags might seem high for some folks, not much actually goes to the Devs. Alot of stuff is actually community work, hell, even the bugfixing is highly reliant on what people report on Discord and whenever they join the regular bug testing. I'l give credit that some bugs and glitches been appearing for years and have not been fixed yet, and that the game has regular ballancing issues. But I wouldn't call it intentional ignoration of the game done in focus of pumping more money from selling the cosmetics, as some folks firmly believe. Gonna end my white knighting here, but, still feel like some people are too much harsh on the situation the game is finding itself in right now. Edit: just found out you are the dude behind the Primal development history video, cool vid!

Love this game, its crazy how they haven't added the giga or other cool human killers

Elton John king moment

Imo, free roam is just as weird as Deathmatch. I see people hopping in Deathmatch only to chat and ask the most rancid questions known to man, say the most disgusting things or all of the above. (as a new player who only bought the game to hang out with friends), I was extremely disgusted upon my first five games by the amount of weird questions i was asked by players. Not to say that ill stop playing, but the people who have been playing for a while freak me out.

It's a shame that this game is struggling as much as it is. I like the idea of asymmetrical team based multiplayer game of humans vs dinosaurs. Primal carnage wasn't the first to come up with the idea but it sure as hell had the potential to perfect it.

I haven't been actively playing this game in years already, but every now and again, I do tune in. When I do, I see that the servers are more dead than ever, and the toxicity still is apparent. People just can't have fun, I guess.

Is this game dead or is it worth buying now? I've been wanting to buy it for a long time but I didn't know it's name

Thank you for talking about this! I agree with you on everything. I used to play the game almost everyday, but as of Nov 2023 I have had no desire to play due to the things you have mentioned. The bugs, exploits, poor game balance, etc… just pushed me away. Besides all that, I do not hate the game, but in its current state, it is unfun for me imo. The game really, REALLY needs more new players, but I completely understand why a new player wouldn’t stay.

The reason Primal Carnage is bad is because Skyler White exists

I don’t hate the game honestly I more or less a bit upset at the devs immaturity. I was waiting for primal carnage evolution to come out and eventually it came out early one night, I thought the game had fully come out along so I bought it because the game I wishlisted said it was out. Turns out that PlayStation released the game early by accident so on their discord they essentially shamed anyone who bought it early and couldn’t fathom why anyone would by it despite the fact they didn’t put a release date for evolution. There was no empathy just getting shamed from devs.

I'm a The Isle youtuber that never actually plays the isle on livestreams. I play primal carnage. That's saying something

Congrats and thanks for answering my question!! Dino crisis is really easy to emulate, my original copy is just not working on a ps3 so im using duckstation on pc now, and for how many games there, there are 4 but the first 2 are the ones people love (DONT PLAY 3 ITS WHAT KILLED THE FRANCHISE) and the other game is a side game which isnt that good on emulation called dino stalker

I play PC since 2013 version 1.0 out with the skin bundles at 2 euros. I fell in love with the chill and cool maps(i remember pc docks even now) and I have really fond memories regards. I just feel like Extinction came out in a wrong moment, PC 1 surely was too old and clunky but It was still pretty fun. In 8 years they added tons of skins, some weapon, reworked multiple times items with humans and added 2 new bruisers class. The new stuff looks cool and all but the game really is too old. Don't get me wrong I still jump in from time to time and have my 15 minutes of dinosaurs and guns fun but I always thought the technogy and budget behind were too low and too little. They even reworked human's animation and even if the community is pretty small I think everyone that sticks around can really have fun. It would be pretty cool to get a new PC maybe in UE5 and with more polished mechanics
