Against one:
Raptors are swarm like creatures. They love hunting in groups and work together to get you. However they still lack some brain cells. They sometimes come running at you in a straight line. At other times they form all sides at once. They love to attack in groups and in random locations. They return to a gathering point when they lose their target to find a new one. What happens at those points is still a mystery. However the best way to fight these guys is to remain on the move. Jump and move backwards while firing. Do not remain in one spot and let them overwhelm you. And well maybe a nice BBQ helps. They dislike flames.

When you are one:
When you are a raptor, you will notice that several things are bad for you. You are small and have a short health bar. The humans are mean with guns or melee. The best thing a raptor can do is a bit of a hit and run tactic. Try to be a bit sneaky as well. See if you can make them panic or surprise them. Anyone can be food for your big T-Rex friend. Just make sure you are not the meal.

Against one:
Everyone has met these little brats. Small, stubborn and always wanting to get your cookies. And they are so hard to hit. Well a solution is to use melee on them before they become too much. Or keep moving. They are small and fast though. Compies are mainly working together and behaving like little raptors. So the solution remains the same. However these guys do not run form fire. They are running straight through it. Though what keeps them going?

When you're one:
Well if you're playing a Compy, you are a strange dinosaur. Nature decided to give you a pack of dynamite on your back. You can use it to go boom. Boom around the humans. Around the ones who want to hurt you. But of course biting is also a option. Be stealthy and quick. Their bullets hurt a lot.

Against one:
In my studies I noticed these dinosaurs are a bit weird. They love to stay behind a bit at first, firing their poisonous spitballs at you. They burn a lot, so better stay out of it. But they're also not afraid to fight. They sometimes go head on. But if you get to far away, they start to shoot again. After each shot they move a little closer, though. The best way to get rid of them is to avoid their goo-like spit. And try to shoot them down pretty quick. If they catch you by surprise, you're screwed.

When you are one:
Well then you first need to eat something to get less slime coming out your mouth. But beside that, you need to use your acid to your advantage. You’re a ranged creature and can shoot really far. But don't be afraid to take some damage as well. Since you need to hit and assist your friends in eating the humans that are after your eggs.

Against one:
Aah the fast striking flying dinosaurs. They strike once and fly up. It's annoying. And we all met it. The pain of trying to hit these dinosaurs. They're so fast. And so disorienting. But the worst thing: They can even kill you. The best way to get rid of them: They approach their target in a straight line. Better to hit them then.

When you are one:
Well simple. Bite a lot. You are small and fast. And pretty hard to hit. So chew them to dead. Or maybe go boom. As evolution decided that you also needed dynamite on your back. But who did put it there?

Against one:
Well these fellows are not much of a threat. They look big and evil. But they are just like big bears. All they ever wanted is to fly with you. So they want to grab you. But well if you hate them for it, you just have to melee them when they grab you. Then they drop you. Like the Rhan they will strike down in one straight line.

When you are one:
Well then you are a nice dinosaur. But make sure you are not getting killed. Just bring those nice humans to the sun. The moon. Or just to a nice place. But remember they can be mean. So try to go as high as soon as possible.

Against one:
Well, this gall. We've all met her. She love to charge and ram things. That would make her a good soccer player as well. Ever saw her throw a car around? Think of that as a ball. The best way to avoid her is getting on her back. There she can not do much against you. Just make sure to jump when she stomps. Roll away from her horns when she's running at you. Her turning speed is not that great, use that to your advantage.

When you are one:
Playing as a triceratops you can wiggle your butt and do something like the moonwalk. Just walk backwards and move around to the left and right. But further the best thing is to strike form an unexpected direction. Keep the humans busy playing with you, since they must not steal the egg. Further it’s a good idea to ram humans away and stomp form a place where they can not see you but you can hit them. Then they can not dodge it. Players drop their egg when they get hit by your stomps.

Against one:
Our lovely bullet sponge. This guy is slow and loves to destroy your cars. But he can not do that much damage to you. If you see him coming, just make sure you are never in front of his head and you are perfectly save. Well, as long as you jump for its stomp attack. Beware of his spiky tail.

When you are one:
Try to be the bullet sponge. Your are a bulky type, but slow in turning. You should just protect those weaker dinosaurs behind your back. Try to ram and hit the humans. Just keep them busy, for you are not the killing type of dinosaur. This is more of an annoying type.

Against one:
This gall loves one thing more than anything in this world: Throwing boulders. When she spotts you, when she loses you or even when you get too far away. Best thing to do is not to get hit. But the T-Rex also loves to get a closer look at you. She always chases you with her head low, trying to get a taste of you. If you're standing in front of her teeth that's often the last thing you do in your life. Best to try to remain to her side, make it turn but see you. Be careful for the feet, as she can stomp on you or walk over you and instantly down you.

When you are one:
Be big. Be strong. And eat that buffet. You are a big dinosaur, but still have a weakness. People can get onto your back. Then you can try to tail swim to get them off, but that rarely works. If they're on you, better keep moving. Try to hit them with a boulder. Don't be afraid to eat players or try to stomp on them when they're on your feet. And remember as well: Eat some raptors to regain health.

Against one:
These ones we've met before as well. They are the fast charging type, but slow moving. They strike out of nowhere and try to chew on you. But they are also a dumb type. They absolutely hate turning more than anything. You can even make one become friendly or get it lost and confused. If it tries to catch you, keep running in circles around it and make it turn after you. Then when you stop at a given moment, sometimes the dino gets so confused that it starts running circles around you. Endless circles with no stopping. Unless you move out of the circle. Then it gets mad.

When you are one:
Use closer corners. You are the king in sprinting where you can run in a line. The fastest of the fastest. However turning is not your thing. So make sure you have a straight way to your target. And well then nom them or a raptor for some food and life. If players get behind you, you can still slap them with your tail.

Against one:
This gall is big and looks terrifying. But she's not that scary. Yes she has a lot of health and is bulky. But she is weaker than a t-rex because she can not throw boulders. Other than that she acts the same as our T-Rex friend. However she is harder to ride so the best advice is: Avoid her maw and feet. Better stay to her side and shoot from there.

When you are one:
Well try to either stomp or eat the humans. Be a mean dinosaur! Show the T-Rex that you are stronger. If the evil humans get near your tail, try to turn around to face them. If that not works, the best thing you can do is: Try to stay calm and run away to surprise attack them later. Or get some help. In some situations walking backwards helps. But not a lot.

Dinosaurs are only playable in Rampage game mode. Since every dinosaur has its own attacks, controls vary from dinosaur to dinosaur, but in general they handle much like humans.

All dinosaurs move faster with 'sprint' (Shift). Triceratops and Stegosaur charge forward and hit anything that stands in their way.

Keys like 'use' (E) and 'ability' (Ctrl) make dinosaurs roar, scream or shriek.


)* Hold down right mouse button to launch this attack.
)** When you are approaching a target, hold down Mouse2. The Pterodactyl will glide towards your target, grab it and take it with you, as long as you hold down Mouse2.
