    I always loved Carnivores Ice Age. Just due to the crazy deaths.

      Also this isn’t even a megacerops, in carnivores it’s called a brontoteriy.

    @TheTigersfan20 7 лет назад +28

    I used Observer Mode a lot because I was nervous about getting a surprise attack by one of the animals. I wanted to see the wolf up close without having to worry about him killing me, so my hunter walked up to one, the wolf stopped and growled, then leaked right at me and shook the hunter’s body like it was a giant rope toy. Safe to say that frightened me more than any jump scare from Carnivaides I or II.

    I didn't like how so many of the ice age animals were so skittish and non-aggressive. Sometimes even the bears and smilodons just run away. BORING

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад +22

      Agreed. Honestly, I think the wolf is the most aggressive predator in the game.

      @mammuthusprimigenius1658 5 лет назад +4

      Remember, alien or not, they still act like real animals, not movie monsters. Don't except them to have the same aggression as Tyrannosaurus alienus (Except the Yeti).

  • @juliancastrejon452
    @juliancastrejon452 7 лет назад +32

    Carnivores ice age is my favorite Carnivores game! Because the game has a somewhat "Darker Vibe" and the cold winter makes it feel dark and scary. I can kind of agree with The animal roster, but some are pretty cool. My favorite from the original game is the Dyatrima. And the mobile port of Ice age Makes it SOOoOOO much better in a way that will take way to long to explain! I love to hear your opinions on these games!! Keep up the good work sauian!

    I always wondered why there wasn't a reference to The Thing (1982) in Ice Age. I can already imagine exploring an abandoned Dino Corp. Research facility that's been deserted after an unexplained attack. They could have even tied it into the Yetis maybe making them a planet guardian of sorts. Love your videos man recently got back into playing the original games and found your channel because of that.

(Well, in this case, mammals), still, keep up your good work! Im looking forward to the next video!

    I remember when me and my dad would always play this game. Once I found out about RUclips and signed in I saw carnivores mods and freaked out. After that me and my dad would always look for the modded Dinosaurs in the normal game. I spent about a whole year searching for those things.

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад +2

      That's a great story! I always love hearing about all the different childhood Carnivores experiences people had.

  • @anthonyhill8158
    @anthonyhill8158 7 лет назад +9

    Out of the 3 Carnivores games from the original trilogy, I'd agree with you on this one. Carnivores: Ice Age feels rushed in development, and the cut content sounds interesting, and I wish they hadn't forced themselves to meet the 2001 holiday season.
    Admittedly, I probably was scared of these games, back in my childhood. Hunting for prehistoric alien replicas of modern-day/extinct animals was quite the change from games like, "Midtown Madness 1 & 2, Bird Hunter: Upland Edition", and "Rollercoaster Creator".

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад +3

      Time waits for no man, but if it had given Action Forms just a little more, maybe Ice Age would have been more complete. Yeah, the Carnivores games were a unique breed for their time! Of the games you mentioned, I vaguely remember Bird Hunter: Upland Edition, but I haven't heard of the others.

    • @anthonyhill8158
      @anthonyhill8158 7 лет назад +2

      They're games that I grew up with. One's a subjectively classic (and fun to play) racing game. The other one's a bird hunting simulator. I played both on Windows 98. I did enjoy the bird hunting one, too.

  • @clickbait1501
    @clickbait1501 7 лет назад +15

    To be honest, some of the animal choices were so bland, blander than a white pencil; having a cryptid is fine, this is an alien planet after all, but this is a re-modelled Bear, nothing interesting, it would be nice to hear Frostbite being Ice Age 2, to cover up the damage that was done.

  • @murttheburt
    @murttheburt 7 лет назад +5

    Ice age took quite a beating there! well anyway good review as always. My favorite memory was waking up on a saturday morning with 200 points to the yeti - i was very exited because itwas the first time i unlocked it. I spent half the day getting the 200 points and a lot of the evening to kill the damn thing.

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад +3

      That's awesome! I can remember that kind of excitement myself: getting so close to unlocking a certain animal, map or weapon but having to leave or something, then excitedly rushing back to keep playing. Great stuff. I'm sure the Yeti tested your hunting patience!

  • @L.E.F.T.E

  • @dinosaurfan2409
    @dinosaurfan2409 7 лет назад +3

    I remember playing this game for the first time with my brother and some family friends around the same time to when the movie "Ice Age" came in theatres. That really brought the mood and interest in. Also while listening to your suggestion about adding the ancient and mythological and supernatural lore and potential horror elements, it reminded me of how I have imagined a story/scenario based on the classic short story called "The Wendigo" which was about a hunting group up north in Canada(?) that was stalked by a sasquatch creature or the actual wendigo monster. That would be cool to fit with the yeti here.

    Another great review. I'm not as familiar with this game as with Carnivores 2 as I only played this on the PSP version, which actually lacked the famous Ravaren's bridge, and as I wasn't familiar with the maps either, my mind actually pondered over what other structures were missing from the game. There was even a spot in the snowy mountain part of Ravaren's Bridge that made me think there was something intended to be there. While the maps are lacking, a few of the maps had nice variety in terms of landscape, snow cover, and vegetation, so it showed that a northern environment had a lot of potential for good maps. I think a fan-made "revamp" of this game could be great: Update the skins, change the sounds, and add new features to the already existing maps to provide a new experience to this game while still remaining true to the canon of other entries.

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад

      Oh so you actually played the PSP version of Ice Age? How was the laser rifle, then? There are so few people who actually played the PSP versions that it's hard to find some direct feedback from someone who used it.
      Yeah, I agree, the most varied maps are the best IMO. I think that's why Ravaren's Bridge is my favorite map. Hopefully Far North will remedy the issues people have with the polar sector.

    • @scorpiopede
      @scorpiopede 7 лет назад

      It's extremely powerful. Imagine the C2 sniper rifle but even stronger. The iron sight for that weapon is also different, pretty cool honestly.
      It seems to be in good hands and I look forward to seeing what they have in store.

    You know, I've actually been thinking about doing sort of a remake of Carnivores: Ice Age sometime in the future (that is, when I get a frickin' laptop) called "Carnivores: Ice Age - Revisited". It's still in the progress of planning, but there will be new maps with more notable landmarks and mysterious structures built by sentient beings, a few new animals to replace those in the original Ice Age game (such as the dodo, Hyaenodon, and Elasmotherium), and a much more unique and lively weapon roster for players to choose from. If all goes swimmingly, then there may even be a few DLC animals as well. It probably won't be my first mod, but I definitely want to work on that specific project of mine sometime in the future. Also, I'm pretty excited for Carnivores: Far North myself. From what I've read over on the saga, it's shaping up to be a pretty awesome and immersive mod so far, and I personally can't wait to play it for myself. :)

    • @SaurianTarget

  • @justinterrell7020
    @justinterrell7020 Год назад +1

    The title screen music alone keeps it high in my nostalgia. I got back into carnivores because I remembered that theme and couldn’t shake it out of my head. I tried the mobile Ice Age game because of it, and from there jumped to mobile Carnivores and got hit full force with all the memories.
    I never got too far as a kid out of fear, so I never really noticed the flaws that I see you pointing out now. I do remember being fascinated about the mystery creature (having not yet been overly familiar with the Yeti as a concept yet), but in retrospect I wish they did something supernatural horror with it, maybe using that as a jumping point to build on the Yeti, sort of how Far Cry 4 did so many years later. I also remember being a bit bored of the maps being so similar where the other games had such variety. Temples and jungles in the first, temperate forests and fjords and forts in the second and… snow, ice floes and dead trees in the third. The world was lacking, but I did enjoy a lot of the animals outside the boar being boring, and coexisting with a pig that looks almost exactly the same. That just felt like a soulless rehash of the gallimimus and velociraptor being similar on purpose to make hunters think twice and stay on their toes. In the first few games it always made me stop and look to make sure the gallimimus weren’t raptors before proceeding; in Ice Age Ive startled myself countless times because I thought I just ran into a random boar on my hunt that was about to ruin everything, before realizing it IS still a boar, just the nonlethal kind. Much more grumbling at that. It was more fun to discern and differentiate Gallimimus from Velociraptor, especially when you’re hunting for raptors; makes it feel like a primal, deadly game of “Where’s Waldo?”, down to the stripes. The boar and pig dichotomy gave me none of that, and only really amplified the “these are modern animals” feeling.
    I also just wish they called the Wolf and Bear what they were based on; Dire Wolves and Cave Bears. Naming alone could have fixed a lot of issues with that. But to be fair outside of Mammoths and Smilodons, I feel they should have forsaken the modern animals entirely and just gone with more exotic Pleistocene choices like they ended up adding later in the mobile version with Hyenadon, Andrewsarchus, Doedicurus, and Indricotherium. That would have really set the game more apart from other modern day hunters and taken away a lot of the overall boring feeling. Bleak, but in the “mediocre content” way and not the “trekking the frozen north” way.
    I still have a lot of fond memories regardless, though. I’ve already gone on so I’ll probably rattle them off another time, since this is already so long 😅

    Another great video! Ice Age is one of those games that I knew wasn't the greatest but it had a special meaning to me. I really think that Ice Age mobile's choice in animals has really helped out the cast of huntable creatures for Ice Age. Could you possibly make a video at some point about the added creatures to the mobile games and how each one fits into the game compared to the others and if you thought it was a good choice? Maybe comment on the designs and how you would of done them? Since they have been out for a while some might have grown on you.

    Honestly if Ice Age was a different planet than the previous one it would be better world building; it doesn’t work the way Subnautica and belie zero work, with just another zone of the planet; it doesnt feel like the same planet so it really should be a different one DinoHunt expanded onto or something

  • @BirdieSenpai
    @BirdieSenpai 6 лет назад

    I have nearly the exact same experience with Ice Age! It was the second game in the series my dad bought and I watched him play it while being even more terrified than I was by Carnivores 2. Looking back on the game now that I'm older and more knowledgeable, I agree that it really didn't add much other than new creatures, and, even then, they weren't all that amazingly-done. In fact, I'd say that, looking at it now, the game feels like it was released before it was actually finished. I'm REALLY excited for Far North because of that; plus, it just looks amazing!
    One of my favorite memories of Ice Age is how my dad speculated that The Yeti had the same call as the bear so it could call in bears to eat. My dad has never been a gamer and doesn't even particularly like video games at all, but he really had a knack for Carnivores; it got him thinking in a way you only really see people who care about a particular game or series do, like how I nearly figured out the Zelda timeline before it was unveiled (so close!).
    One thing I'll add that I love way more in Ice Age than in 2 is the dimensions of the animals; the lengths and weights of some of the dinosaurs felt so weird. The Spinosaurus and Ceratosaurus were given the same dimensions as the Velociraptor, the Stegosaurus outweighed the Tyrannosaurus by sometimes as much as three tons at their max sizes, and the only carnivore that outweighed ANY of the herbivores was the Tyrannosaurus. The numbers seemed much more balanced and sensible in Ice Age to me. I actually never realized that The Yeti was given the same menu dimensions as the Tyrannosaurus; I don't know how I missed that in spite of how obsessive as I always was with numbers. I learned something new about Carnivores today!

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  6 лет назад

      Same! The more I look back at Ice Age (disappointingly albeit lovingly), the more excited I get for Far North.
      That's actually a really interesting theory about the Yeti's calls, kudos to your dad for coming up with that one! It seems like Carnivores has a special way of bonding family members together.
      Also, I definitely agree with the animal proportions in this one. They actually make sense given the sizes, as opposed to the lazily copy-and-pasted new Carnivores 2 dinosaurs. I guess each sequel has its own list of pros and cons!

    @enzoayala4629 4 года назад +1

    There's one point I have to disagree with, and that's the animal roster, I know it's just your opinion, but I actually like the roster for Ice Age, the animal choices in Far North that you claim are "excellent polar animal choices" to me, aren't, yes, I am aware that this is set on an alien planet and that these are not the species from Earth, but most of the animals from Far North are based on animals that aren't from the Ice Age, (Only exceptions being Macronia being based on Macrauchenia, Dipttadon being based on Diprotodon, Megateiry being based on Megatherium, and Dinotornis being based on Dinornis) I hate when people use any random Cenozoic animals they can think of and just simply call them Ice Age animals, so I think that Action Forms was aware of what animal inspirations they should use for their alien creatures, I think they actually took a nice route, not "the lazy route" like you claim, because fun fact, most of the animals in the game (Except Brontoteiry, Archeopterics, Diatrima, and Gigantosimiae) are from the Pleistocene epoch, not trying to be rude to you Saurian, just clarifying something to you.😀

  • @LightningAlchemist13
    @LightningAlchemist13 7 лет назад

    I had to watch this video twice. At first I thought you were too harsh on it but on the second viewing I see why.
    Imagine instead of a boar, wolf and bear they used Indricotherium, Hyaenodon, Andrewsarchus, Elasmotherium, Sarkastodon, Doedicurus, Kelenken, Phorusrhacos or even Gigantopithicus. Maybe dodo birds as ambients.
    As far as maps go, it's amazing how much of a difference little subtle easter eggs make on simple games such as these.

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад

      Those would have been excellent choices for the animal roster. Given more time, maybe that's what we would've got. Who knows?
      And yeah, I agree, these games thrive off subtlety. Do it right, and it will reward you immensely. Do it wrong, and it just comes off as boring. Hence, Ice Age.

  • @Lijst_2030
    @Lijst_2030 Год назад

    I agree with the many points you made but I did like it back in 2001 and enjoy the mobile port. The desolate atmosphere and isolated vibe is appealing. I found Ice Age at least on par with Carnivores 2 despite C2 being the better game, pure from an atmosphere point of view. The title screen music fits the game well.

  • @DarioHF
    @DarioHF 3 года назад +2

    Well, I'm gonna play as a Devil's lawyer, but , about the animal roster in min 5:00, the title of the game it's "ice age", so I think those animals fits well to the game (I know Diatrima was not from the Ice Age) otherwhise, the title would be "Pleistocene age". And, the Whooly Rino where native animals of that age. Anyways, I agree with you in the rest of the video.

    I have liked Ice Age because of the fact that I was obsessed with Smilodons when I was younger. I'm 15 now and this game still holds a special place in my heart nonetheless, but there are just certain issues about the game that cannot be fixed.
    The horrible and skittish AI was my main concern. There were no fun hunting challenges. I knew that I could just mod the game with custom models on the Saga, but I knew it was impossible to rework the AI by myself. I really wish the extra resupply bag and the tenth, mysterious AI slot were a thing in C2.
    Let me know if you feel the same way!

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад +2

      Totally agree! The Ice Age predator AI was always way too skittish for my taste. I mean, it feels like the wolf is the most aggressive carnivore in the game, which is a shame when your game has Smilodon and Yetis in it.

    • @Tyme_Whyrlwynd
      @Tyme_Whyrlwynd 7 лет назад

      I feel that Carnivores: Triassic suffers a lot from this AI problem. I love every visual aspect of the mod, but mechanically, the mod is one hell of a flaw, just like the original Ice Age. And that is because everything simply boils down to the quality of the AI.
      Sometimes I wonder how you add the tenth AI slot in C2, as well as the resupply ship.

    • @SaurianTarget
      @SaurianTarget  7 лет назад

      I guess it depends on what mode you're playing Triassic. I play it on 3DFX with the Ice Age Aggression patch and the predators are *much* more aggressive.
      As for the 10th AI and resupply ship in C2, they just require some custom patches. Unfortunately, the 10th AI will be Pachycephalosaurus AI, but it can be modified with an aggression patch.

    I'm definitively a fan of ice age but I agree there should be more to it from a world building perspective. hunting has long been a fascination and hobby of mine but I also really like archeology so even thought it doesn't plague me as much. I definitely wish more was programed into this game. I actually played carnivores 1 first and then ice age. I've only seen gameplay of carnivores 2. plus I'm not sure what state you live in but I'm an Illinois kid and winter is creepy for sure. by itself and without discoveries. I can see why the Indians in this region believed that the wedingo haunted the woods. my Cherokee blood runs cold on a new moon night when checking my live traps in winter. but since I've taken up trapping to keep pests out of my yard for summer I can definitely say its a similar thrill. though no where as intimidating as a charging dangerous game like brontotherium
