Haven't seen a thread for this game in the last 10 pages, so I figured it needed one.
Primal Carnage is developed by Lukewarm media, an indie developer that seems to get sponsors from everywhere to develop their game. The game runs on the Unreal 3 engine.

[B]What's in the game[/B]

[quote]A skilled sniper; the Scientist calmly picks off and hinders targets at range but she starts to sweat it when they get in close.[/quote]
[url=http://www.primalcarnage.com/website/classes-heavy]The Commando[/url] (the black guy)
[quote]An offensive powerhouse; what the Commando lacks in precision and subtlety he makes up for in raw firepower.[/quote]
[url=http://www.primalcarnage.com/website/classes-pathfinder]The Pathfinder[/url] (the native american dude)
[quote]An invaluable guide; the Pathfinder knows what’s lurking the jungle and can safely lead his team through.[/quote]
[url=http://www.primalcarnage.com/website/classes-trapper]The Trapper[/url] (the guy with the outdated haircut)
[quote]A control specialist; the Trapper doesn’t like dinosaurs on the prowl, so that’s why he stops them dead in their tracks.[/quote]
[url=http://www.primalcarnage.com/website/classes-pyro]The Pyromaniac[/url] (angry scotsman, at least he looks like one)
[quote]A defensive madman; the Pyromaniac can keep the dinosaurs at bay, though he also has to get up close and personal to take them out.[/quote]

[url=http://www.primalcarnage.com/website/classes-trex]The T-Rex[/url] (TAAAAAAANK!)
[quote]The tank class; the T-Rex can take and deal massive amounts of damage, but its size and inaccessibility to certain areas makes it an easy target.[/quote]
[url=http://www.primalcarnage.com/website/classes-raptor]The Raptor[/url] (HUNTER!)
[quote]This is the dinosaur assault class, its major role on the team is to seek and destroy.[/quote]
[url=http://www.primalcarnage.com/website/classes-dilo]The Dilophosaurus[/url] (SPITTER!)
[quote]The ambush class; the venomous Dilo can attack at range or up close, blinding or poisoning its victims for a period of time. It can also offer aid to trapped dinosaurs in need.[/quote]
The Pteranodon (SMOOOKER!)
[quote]The scout class; the Pteranodon is both an eye in the sky and a winged death from above. Though fairly vulnerable, its attacks are rarely anticipated.[/quote]
The Carnotaurus (CHAAARGER!) (not shown on website but shown in action in first character showcase video)
[quote]No official description yet[/quote]
The Comsognathus (JOCKEY!) (shown on website but probably replaced by Carnotaurus)
[quote]The horde class; while a single Compy is insignificant a group of them is fairly intimidating. In addition, their small size makes them excellent infiltrators.[/quote]

Too many zombie games, too few dinosaur games, amiright?
Title for V2 should be "Revelations 2012 with dinosaurs" :V
Still waiting for this.
dinosaurs are a lot more terrifying than zombies anyways
playing as dinosaurs looks hilarious though
I just realized how awesome versus mode would be.
[QUOTE=cdr248;36783227]I just realized how awesome versus mode would be.[/QUOTE]
I played it at PAX East, was fun as fuck, they had 10 machines set up, and there were always plenty of people there. It was fun as shit, I can't wait for the game.
CAD actually managed to make a funny about this game.

CAD wasted its Brawl joke on Snake humping corpses. That thing is more stupid than funny. Not to mention, team balancing. And chainsaw flamethrowers.
[QUOTE=dorkson0;36785977]I've heard only negative things about this little slice of pie. But I suppose I can't really know until I try it :downs:
I should say; always give unfamiliar devs a chance personally before you go judging ... seeing as we've only seen one other game from these guys.[/QUOTE]
I admit the gameplay does look a bit messy judging from the trailers. Hope they'll introduce some good gamemodes to spice things up.
Let's just sign up for the beta and see where it goes from there. Betas are the new demos.
I fucking love dinosaurs holy shit.
Is it me or that HUD could really use some work?
except from that the rest looks amazing
[QUOTE=GhostG45;36787872]I fucking love dinosaurs holy shit.[/QUOTE]
You stated the exact same thing in the Carnivores thread.
Anyways, definitely looking foward to this game.
[QUOTE=calebc789;36788843]You stated the exact same thing in the Carnivores thread.[/quote]
It appears you don't understand how [i]fucking[/i] much I love dinosaurs.
The music sounds awesome.
Let's hope this doesn't turn into Dino D-day v2
[sp]I preordered Dino D-day :([/sp]

That game was awesome though.
You could fucking punch dinosaurs to death.
And DDD apparently has improved with age; no longer broken from what I've heard. Also, Kamikaze Compies.
I think playing as a hapless human trying to kill off giant scary dinosaurs would be a terrifying and fucking awesome experience

The sequel is more of an action game, and there is no third game, no matter what anybody may tell you.

The game was great, nobody plays it though.

The lots o' t-rex sever usually has decent amounts of people in it.

I played that game when I was like 8 years old. Shit was scary. Really. Scary. I wanted my brother to play it because it was like playing, but a bit less scary. Still scary enough for the cover to make me shiver... Not anymore, I don't have it anymore.
[editline]16th July 2012[/editline]
Actually, I got it when it was rather new, so I was like 5 or 6 at that time.
I was too young and stupid when I got that so I never got far enough to see a single dinosaur.
I didn't have a Playstation so I missed out on Dino Crisis.
Made up for it with the time spend playing Turok Dinosaur Hunter.
Dino crisis is like resident evil though.
Been following for a long time, but I believe my beta submission was a little sappy. I don't think I could intelligently play as a dinosaur though, any time there's a normal team and a "special team" I never seem to get a decent grasp of an effective play style of the unique team.
I really like this idea, I donated to get the beta back in 2010, iirc.
However, I'm really dissapointed in the quality of the forums (at least the management) for Primal Carnage.
Raising thread from the 9th page for the new trailer:
