A mod now allows players to take on the role of the dinos in ARK: Survival Evolved.
In a land before our time …
In ARK: Survival Evolved, players mostly fight as weak humans against the harsh nature. This consists of dinosaurs, other nasty animals, and players who are all too eager to pounce on the prey. How nice it would be if one could slip into the scaly skin of the dinosaurs to give those humans a proper stomp in the face back?
Exactly this was probably also thought by FinntasticGames, who quickly created a mod that allows just that. Right on the beach, a dinosaur can be selected, with which one then roams the island.
But since being alone is boring in the long run, the dino players can lay eggs (which takes a full 30 minutes!) and then hatch more dinosaurs (each takes 10 minutes). With the push of a button, the new companions can be commanded to either follow as a herd or stay at a location.
The system is not particularly sophisticated yet, so it becomes a bit monotonous after a short time, but it definitely offers a first taste for interesting game modes that the developers (and also the community) can still explore.
If you want to try it out yourself, you can find a link to the mod in our sources.
P.S.: Yes, you can also play as a Dodo.
