+Jim Sterling WE MUST JUDGE YOUR ERRORS HARSHLY AS YOU SO JUDGE GAMES SO SAYETH THE LORD...OF...RUclips. Bob Dole. But yeah the 'brontosaurus' is most likely from the brachiosaurid family (They're characterized by how they centre themselves ie posturing, not all members of the family possess the 'crest'). Also; if you were going to say diplodocus that's a dinosaur that's known for being long as opposed to standing tall. THE MORE YOU KNOOOOW.
Okay, I actually think the game dev. for this one might be Digital Homicide, renamed. Check out the wording in the description of this game: "Dinosaur Hunt: Africa Contract is an intense action shooter that will take you on an epic journey of hunting the world’s most horrifying animals! But let's be CLEAR, this is NOT some high-budget, flashy, top-notch, sterling, tip-top, A1, top-drawer, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, top-hole quality production. It doesn't even pretend to be one - screenshots and trailer are exactly like the game looks like. So if you like what you see, you can expect no surprises. BUT If you are looking for AAA quality, ace & crack, top-grade Dinosaur Survival MultiPlayer Open World Game, with millions of details, whatever, there are better positions out there, so please move on - DO NOT BUY IT. BUT If you like Dinosaurs, Zombies, shooting, explosions, bullets, slow motion, bullet follow and all the things that will make you LAUGH - GREAT - you are going to have fun with this one." So...it's the only game listed by this dev (which is a Digital Homicide trick - change the name, release a game), it's made with asset packs (one of which we know they own already - the zombie one), it's "on sale" (another trick they do for shite games they just want to sell enough of to make quick money), and the description over emphasizes the fact that it's NOT a high-budget, AAA game - and they used the word "sterling" to describe what it ISN'T. Who uses the word sterling these days? It seems like Digital Homicide, nay, "Racing Bros," are learning to cover their asses ahead of time?
More than one dinosaur per map? This game is so high end and system taxing that it can't render rocks more than 5 feet in front of you. You're asking the impossible if you want more dinos per map.
Mr Jim Sterling I recently discovered you on RUclips after watching your slaughtering grounds melt down video and enjoyed it so much that I then went in search for more of your videos and I must say, the content you put out is RUclips gold. You don't fail to entertain me in any video. Keep up the great work dude 👍
Allosaurus was smaller than T-Rex, and it was also from an earlier period in history. Also, the long necked one was likely an Apatosaurus. Brontosaurus isn't a fake dinosaur, it's just that it was discovered the the bones for the Brontosaurus actually belonged to a dinosaur that was already classified. You might be thinking of Diplodocus, though.
+cheezemonkeyeater There are some scientists that suggest the Brontosaurus did exist (www.wired.com/2015/04/scientists-say-time-reinstate-brontosaurus/).
It's possible. The field of paleontology has always been educated guesswork based on clues we can find in the fossilized bones and as new technology gives us better way to analyze those fossils, we may re-evaluate old assumptions. This is, after all, how we came to think of most theropods having feathers.
4:00 OMG I heard hump a dinosaur instead of hunt! Oh and good job Jim for researching your dino facts, and accepting when you made a mistake about dinosaurs. 11:00 watch as the majestic whatever climbs up a pile of rocks... Truly it's amazing. I love the dino puns! Also Ijust noticed they all have the same death sound!
I think Jim should be very worried that someone somewhere is watching this video and taking his sarcasm as a compliment. "Oh, another first person survival horror shooter. This is certainly a rarity." "Wow, really? Good thing my next game is exactly like that!" Seems reasonable when you consider the average IQ of one of these devs.
I checked steam. Saw this game, saw how cheap it was and the bad scores it had. Thought to myself that Jim will probably take a look at it. Come onto RUclips and boom, there it is just been uploaded. I think I'm a wizard.
+Christian Neihart Uhm as far as I know Brontosaurus and Apatosaurus are not the same thing anymore... www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-brontosaurus-is-back1/
I'm glad that there are a lot of people here, including Jim, who are interested in dinosaurs. I was actually surprised someone knew about allosauruses. Allosaurus isn't really a famous type of dinosaur.
Why did the crossbow sound like it was being cocked. I mean, it could be argued that it was bow being pulled into place, but it sounded more like the slide moving on a gun to me. .-.
Marquis Forneus Yeah they are. Almost every comment of yours is "(insert game/meme/something here) is so hardcore. Jim you don't get it." It's an overused joke by this point.
+Xen Noxatron He in a way is just like the developers of shitty games like this, keeps squirting out the same shit over and over but with just a new coat of paint/a new twist. Some stuff he has commented has been quite funny, but most is the same old shit over n over. Comes with the territory I suppose, see the same shitty assets/games everyday expect the same comments day after day. I think he has just got a cult following now that upvote for the hell of it, even when it ain't funny/witty etc.
Jim, whenever you have trouble shooting sniper rifle, just don't think about it too much. Just as soon as you see that you have shot perfectly lined up, shoot, don't think about it, just enter the "happy trigger" mode and shoot shoot shoot. Thinking too much about your shot is what causes you to miss 90% of the time. I am doing that now in Counter Strike and it does work 60% of the time.
Sniper rifle =/= AK47 ..Sad, now the asset flippers don't even take the time to make sure that they flip the right model. ..Maybe they assumed that ANYthing becomes a sniper rifle if you strap a scope to it.. like putting a scope on your knife as an example.
You called it a Paracephalosaurus and then said it was your favourite dinosaur Jim... It's called a Parasaurolophus. You got it mixed up with Pachycephalosaurus
You know I am actually surprised Jim was able to actually SHOOT the dinosaurs, cause I believe in his Best of Steam Greenlight video the trailer never actually showed the player shooting any dinosaurs at all. So hey at least there is that?
Dinosaur Hunt has come a long way since this video. Now, it's got cards to farm, achievements to spam, DLC packs, and a "Special Edition" bundle that includes a bunch of developer's otherwise unrelated games.
That pop-in is well hidden. You can barely see vegetation and rocks pop-in, because the range is so low you can only see the objects when you look down.
Jim, I know it's a minor thing, but I'd love it if you went through the effort of making a distinction between "assets" and "stock assets". Because you mostly refer to the second. Just saying "assets" is meaningless. Anything you see in a game is technically assets, whether it's been bought or created by the developer.
Why on earth did they have stones pop in as the player nears them? Were they too high poly to have them all load with the level? Why have enormously high poly rocks then?
Jim, did you know that even though the t-rex's arms look small in comparison to its body each one was about three feet long and was probably strong enough to curl 400 pounds
Brontosaurus is once again an actual dinosaur genus again, with three species. Was reclassified as Apatosaurus at the beginning of the 1900s, but has recently been found to be separate from that genus. So 19th century scientists considered them separate genus, 20th century thought they were the same, and the 21st century has separated them again.
For 99 cents, this is at least better than slaughtering grounds or unturned ( or insert asset flip game) . The fact the dev knows it's a bad game, and openly admits it.I have to respect that. Unlike other "devs"..
Brontosaurus is a synonym for Apatosaurus. Or maybe not, according to a study published this year Brontosaurus is a separate species from Apatosaurus, but not all paleontologists agree on that. And Allosaurus was massive, but not as much as a T. Rex.
Favourite dinosaur....Argentinosaurus, up to 115ft long and 110 tons! when I seen a reconstructed skeleton It blew my mind something this big ever existed...but it did........think about that for a second.....is your mind blown?
actually the Allosaurus was a bit smaller than the t-Rex (still pretty massive tho)
+1stshockarmy Ah fuck, I made a dinosaur mistake!
+Jim Sterling I guess you could say you didn't SAUR that coming haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Ok I'll lead myself out...
+Jim Sterling WE MUST JUDGE YOUR ERRORS HARSHLY AS YOU SO JUDGE GAMES SO SAYETH THE LORD...OF...RUclips. Bob Dole. But yeah the 'brontosaurus' is most likely from the brachiosaurid family (They're characterized by how they centre themselves ie posturing, not all members of the family possess the 'crest'). Also; if you were going to say diplodocus that's a dinosaur that's known for being long as opposed to standing tall. THE MORE YOU KNOOOOW.
+Jim Sterling could the one you couldn't remember the name of be the diplodicus? That name jumped to my mind while watching
+Jim Sterling Is it just me, or does anyone else notice that all the dinosaurs have the same roar for almost everything?
"I like to be a bit hipster with my dinosaurs"
-Jim Sterling, 2015
+Sutekh94 Yeah, that statement made me question my favorite dinosaurs. Thanks, Jim, now I need to reevaluate my entire childhood. Ya jerk. :P
+Sutekh94 I'm a bit of a Poposaurus fan do you think i would be considered a bit hipster with my dinosaurs?
+ghjk9592 But Poposaurus isn't a Dinosaur...
SeriousPain touché, technically it can be argued its close enough though. but you got me
Got to say, it has captured the feel of an early 2000s bargain bin FPS quite well.
I live in (South) Africa.
This game give an inaccurate presentation of what it's like hunting dinosaurs in The Africa.
Our dinosaurs are much faster.
and you usually have waaaay less bullets hahaha
+Andrew Davis And I don't think half-timber houses are the prevalent architectural style of The African zombie villages. 0/10
That's right, you guys have Ostriches, don't you? Lol

interesting
So basically the Dinosaurs in this game have the same amount of HP as the Honey Badgers from Far Cry 4
Maaaaan I hope dinosaurs doesn't become the new 'zombies' -_-
You mean the OLD zombies ;)
+CreepsMcPasta Dinosaurs were new zombies before zombies were zombies.
well we can only hope for Zombie dinosaurs ala parasite eve now.
+CreepsMcPasta Why, do you hate fun?
+CreepsMcPasta I do, dinosaurs are way better and cooler than zombies.
Gotta love that they seem to have used the same hitbox for every dino.
From the message boxes to the floating dinosaur, this is the most I've enjoyed one of Jim's videos, and just 9 minutes in.
More than one dinosaur per map? This game is so high end and system taxing that it can't render rocks more than 5 feet in front of you. You're asking the impossible if you want more dinos per map.
I love the 2 foot draw distance on those detail meshes.
Diplodocus?
+chris lowis THAT'S the bastard!
Jim Sterling glad to help
Apatosaurus I think is the one that gets mixed up the most.
"Why would you play this for 29 minutes?!?"
"This is stupid!"
*Watches whole video.*
I have a feeling the developper of this game did, in fact, spared some expense.
Jim, this April had Brontosaurus re-established as an actual dinosaur. I was surprised to find out, too. The game did a thing right, on accident.
Mr Jim Sterling
I recently discovered you on RUclips after watching your slaughtering grounds melt down video and enjoyed it so much that I then went in search for more of your videos and I must say, the content you put out is RUclips gold. You don't fail to entertain me in any video. Keep up the great work dude 👍
What have we learned here? That your expectations cannot ever be low enough.
Spared no expense.
+Paradox Acres
I see what you did there. XD
+Paradox Acres A followup: "That's a big pile of shit"
+Crew Glove The developers were so preoccupied about whether or not they could they didn't stop to think if they should.

Amen.

There ought to be a Chungussaurus!

"Dinosaurs are endangered" - Jim Sterling 2015
You should hold a telethon for them Chungus.
I think Jim should be very worried that someone somewhere is watching this video and taking his sarcasm as a compliment.
"Oh, another first person survival horror shooter. This is certainly a rarity."
"Wow, really? Good thing my next game is exactly like that!"
Seems reasonable when you consider the average IQ of one of these devs.
That Africa map...with that cliff and rock placement.
it's that mobile game where you shoot dinos.
I checked steam. Saw this game, saw how cheap it was and the bad scores it had. Thought to myself that Jim will probably take a look at it. Come onto RUclips and boom, there it is just been uploaded. I think I'm a wizard.
Brontosaurus=Apatosaurus, and the the word you are looking for is Diplodocus.
+Christian Neihart
Uhm as far as I know Brontosaurus and Apatosaurus are not the same thing anymore...
www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-brontosaurus-is-back1/
HanniballXII I stand corrected. I was under the assumption that they were the same. I hadn't read the study.
I was under the same assumption, until I read that article about two weeks ago =)
Earlier this year a study concluded they weren't the same, but not all paleontologists agree on that yet.
SeriousPain Consensus is a thing acquired in time.
The sad thing is this is more competent than a lot of the games that have popped up more recently
My favourite dinosaur is probably the Brachiosaurus due to their massive size and somewhat cute faces :-P
I don't think it's a good marketing strategy to outright state "Our game is shit" but kudos to the dev(s) for being honest about it.
Diplodocus is the the sauropod you were trying to remember I think, though there are quite alot of them
It's funny how it's immediately obvious a lot of these games are better than The Slaughtering Grounds...
So in Jim's efforts to provide us with game more than just FPH or zombie games, he plays a Dino game. Which ends up being a zombie game. What a twist.
I'm glad that there are a lot of people here, including Jim, who are interested in dinosaurs. I was actually surprised someone knew about allosauruses. Allosaurus isn't really a famous type of dinosaur.
I just not but 5 minutes ago, saw this on the steam store and was already looking forward to this squirty play... thank god for him.
So this used to be "Dinosaur Hunter 3D"......i thought it looked crappily familiar!
That's closer to a Utahraptor, but a little fatter and more derpy. Also is that a fucking AK47 model? That ain't no sniper rifle XD
+XajakXx Looks like an SVD kind of.
+Nine Hydras Not really ,just looks like AK, SWD is in AK family but thats ak not SWD
Lets all get scientific and technical about these purchased asset packs.
21:58, my sides have taken liftoff, good stuff Jim.
Why did the crossbow sound like it was being cocked. I mean, it could be argued that it was bow being pulled into place, but it sounded more like the slide moving on a gun to me. .-.
Dinosaurs so occult, so hardcore. you just don't get it Jim.
Honestly your comments are the same s*** all the time.

The dark souls bit and the intense combat when he's fighting the brontosaurus with a knife had me laughing so hard!

Did you review Romero's Aftermath yet? It's from the guy that made WarZ and Big Rigs.
+David Wolfe It also costed 50 bucks before it was launched F2P on steam.
"I see it has all the sprinting capacity of well me in real life."
Hit too close to home.
Sniper rifle =/= AK47
..Sad, now the asset flippers don't even take the time to make sure that they flip the right model.
..Maybe they assumed that ANYthing becomes a sniper rifle if you strap a scope to it.. like putting a scope on your knife as an example.
+Scharrez Or putting a scope on the scope that's already on another scope.
This was made in gameguru. (a continuation of FPSGM or whatever that FPS game engine was)
Goddamn it I was expecting zombie dinosaurs!!!
You called it a Paracephalosaurus and then said it was your favourite dinosaur Jim...
It's called a Parasaurolophus. You got it mixed up with Pachycephalosaurus
You know I am actually surprised Jim was able to actually SHOOT the dinosaurs, cause I believe in his Best of Steam Greenlight video the trailer never actually showed the player shooting any dinosaurs at all. So hey at least there is that?

such a great vid good to watch for the third time
so the bullet trajectory suddenly changes between having distance adjustments and not at random?
That pop-in is well hidden. You can barely see vegetation and rocks pop-in, because the range is so low you can only see the objects when you look down.
"Did it shit itself when it died!?" Hahaahhaahh
Jim, I'm very similar with sniper rifles, I get really nervous when I use them and therefore end up missing a lot
Zombie mode with static assets from Doom 3 - very rewarding!
Jim, I know it's a minor thing, but I'd love it if you went through the effort of making a distinction between "assets" and "stock assets". Because you mostly refer to the second. Just saying "assets" is meaningless. Anything you see in a game is technically assets, whether it's been bought or created by the developer.
+The Proton Pack what even?
Hey Uncle Jim JIm, what story have you got for me today!!???
Everytime you made a dinosaur pun my soul died a little bit.
Haha the popin 2 meters in front of you Haha hilarious!
Yay, more asset flips! I haven't watched the video yet, but I assume that it's just mismatched assets, with some basic FPS pack or something.
Diplodocus, Mr. Sterling. That's the long neck dinosaur you're thinking of.
Why on earth did they have stones pop in as the player nears them? Were they too high poly to have them all load with the level? Why have enormously high poly rocks then?
rocks render 5 feet infront of you, an AK47 with a high powered rifle scope, dinos with next-gen AI (PS4 and XBONE are jealous). This game is pure.
Love how the crossbow just does not give one crossbowy fuck about where you point the scope
Need more dinosaur games...
Good dinosaur games, of course.
+Vestyxe play Primal Carnage that is a good dino game
I know both of those but thanks for taking the time to comment anyway guys. :)
I'm still holding out for a new Dino Crisis.
+Vestyxe For a good Dinosaur hunting game there's always Carnivores. The remake is pretty good from what I heard.
+Vestyxe Orion Dino horde? (kappa)
I did enjoy the old carnivores games when I was younger.
Covrig, I will fight you on the streets.
Taking out a Brontosaurus with a combat knife. That's some level-100 Colonel shit right there.
OH DEAR GOD, the look down sight button was the middle mouse button? I played this game for like 30 min and never got that.
Allosaurus was smaller than Tyrannosaurus rex by a few meters, though the closely related Saurophaganax was in fact a bit larger.
A lot of those gun models (and the hands) are from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (or a mod, at least)!
I can't wait to unlock the ability to explore the map. Thrilling!
i love the videogame logic, where bows are deadlier than guns. "sniper rifle? pssshhh, i just need a well aimed shot of my crossbow!"
I lost it when the "brontosaurus" stood on your head.
Is this a replacement for bad rats?
You know when Africa, Winter and Zombie are in the same list you're in for a bad time.
Only three minutes in and I'm thinking to myself that those pop ins would drive Totalbiscuit insane
Are there any good dinosaur games?
(Not ark survival as I don't have 50 years to grind)
OMG AT 8:00 WHEN YOU SAID THAT I ROFLED SO HARD I CRIED!!!!!!! XD
I'll take this over a first-person horror game on Steam any day of the week.
Jim, did you know that even though the t-rex's arms look small in comparison to its body each one was about three feet long and was probably strong enough to curl 400 pounds
Was the name your were looking for "diplodocus"?
Brontosaurus is once again an actual dinosaur genus again, with three species. Was reclassified as Apatosaurus at the beginning of the 1900s, but has recently been found to be separate from that genus. So 19th century scientists considered them separate genus, 20th century thought they were the same, and the 21st century has separated them again.
The moment you realize the "sniper rifle" is just a semi-automatic AK47 with a scope.
why are their zombies in my dinosaurs?
+Dragoon-BB because the devs breathe through there skin
why are their dinosaurs in my zombies?
quality pun in the title, Jim
Didn't you make a Best of Steam Greenlight Trailers of this game? Or was that a different dinosaur game?
Have you not seen the lakes of mercury in the jungle, I thought they were common knowledge :DAs for the game, i'll just laugh and get my coat.
Explosive Rounds in The Crossbow?
Do you mean Diplodocus?
For 99 cents, this is at least better than slaughtering grounds or unturned ( or insert asset flip game) . The fact the dev knows it's a bad game, and openly admits it.I have to respect that. Unlike other "devs"..
Jathinkhesaurus?
Damn it, kill cams only work when there are actual well designed graphics to show off.
Brontosaurus' are actually back to being a real dinosaur again
+lgstanton96 "Brontosaurus is back on the menu!"
when he fights his fav dinosaur, he reminds me quite a bit of south park's cartman.
Brontosaurus is a synonym for Apatosaurus. Or maybe not, according to a study published this year Brontosaurus is a separate species from Apatosaurus, but not all paleontologists agree on that.
And Allosaurus was massive, but not as much as a T. Rex.
WTF lol Ya gotta love how the dino droppings spawn on the ground when you walk around. lol
Dino.........dropping........droppings???
😉
In topic of dinosaurs...
How 'bout that ARK:SE video you said you'd do?
Favourite dinosaur....Argentinosaurus, up to 115ft long and 110 tons! when I seen a reconstructed skeleton It blew my mind something this big ever existed...but it did........think about that for a second.....is your mind blown?
Also, the one starting with a D was Diplodocus.
Aww I was hoping for a Ty The Tasmian Tiger squirty play. Although it' only just dropped today.
