There is something to be said about seeing someone perched on a cliff in the distance, then seeing them grab their neck as you put an arrow in them. If you used this technique on some of them, you would not even make it two steps towards them before they blew you away with a projectile weapon.Īll the weapons are fun to fire, but I particularly found the tek bow and arrow the most exciting. This, of course, does not work on all the enemies in the game. If you can move around fast enough and run and slice at the enemies at the right moment, you will take them out and earn special bonus points. Although many people will tell you that the knife is a weak weapon, it actually is very good. You start out with a knife and progress up to rocket launchers and other weapons of mass destruction. There are 14 weapons found throughout Turok, and they're some of the most intense you will find. It’s as much about exploration and discovery as it is about blasting." Dave Dientsbier, Lead Designer/Project Manager, explains it like this, "You have to understand that Turok was never intended to be merely a 1st person shooter. Turok is more of an exploration and adventure title that includes a lot of cool action. With the Chronosceptor, Turok will have enough power to rid the Campaigner from the Lost Land.Ī lot of people wanted to compare Turok to the Quake titles, but that is not a fair comparison. To defeat the Campaigner it is up to Turok to locate all the pieces of a mystical weapon, the Chronosceptor. There is a storyline weaved throughout all the action found in the game Turok learns of an arch-nemesis, the Campaigner, who has plans to conquer Earth. The concept behind Turok Dinosaur Hunter is loosely based around a comic book hero, Turok. It also carries over some of the limitations that the N64 has. What this gives gamers is a game that actually looks better on the PC than the N64, mainly because of a higher resolution. To pull off the graphics and effects that a N64 can handle, Acclaim made the bold move of making the title require a 3D accelerator. Shawn Quigley of the Adrenaline Vault says it all about this 3D underdog: " Turok Dinosaur Hunter on the PC is a direct port of the popular N64 game. Nonetheless, here are some screens with the OSD running.One of the first action games that look better on PC than the console, Turok Dinosaur Hunter is an excellent and innovative first-person shooter that is much more of an action-oriented exploration title than your average Quake clone. MSI afterburner causes the game to crawl and Fraps (oddly) messes with the game speed causing it to slow down and speed up. The only problem right now is that capturing video of 60 fps gameplay is really troublesome. Perhaps this could be good for the speed running community. It would be great if GAF could help me figure out exactly what they all do. I have yet to try out any of the other command lines beyond the benchmark. Other than that none of the enemies are sped up, none of gameplay is 2x the speed, none of that. so putting on the run modifer makes the head bob 2x as fast as when the framerate was really low. The only side effect so far is that the game's head bob seems to have been timed to a frame step. Turok legitimately is no longer shit in its PC release. the game runs at 62fps flat (an internal engine limitation). Trying them out in order, the first command line I made a shortcut and added " -MaxFramerate 120" (I have a 120hz monitor).
