The Dilophosaurus: Dinosaur Support Class



Stats:
Health: 175
Sprint speed: TBA

Pros:
Can escape nets
Can free other dinosaurs from nets
Ranged Attack
Speed/Attack team buffer

Cons:
TBA

Tactical Summary:

The Dilophosaurus' primary function is to provide support to the other dinosaurs. The Dilophosaurus can destroy nets that have captured other dinosaurs. It is also quickly escape nets, making the Dilophosaurus an admirable adversary to the Trapper. The Dilophosaurus is also the only dinosaur with a ranged attack.


Spit: This special attack blurs the humans vision and causes them to stumble, slowing their movement speed. Causes a small amount of periodic damage for the duration of the effect.

Bite: A simple bite that causes minimal damage to an enemy player.

Screech: The Dilophosauruscan screech, providing a speed/strength increase to nearby dinosaurs.


We'll have some more screens for you soon - but let us know what you think!

Very nice model (as usually i must say)!

But what about the range of spit attack?

And will we get bonuses for hitting the head of the target or something similar?

Oh and by the way, i love the skin colour!

VERY NICE! YES! Finally! This is great!!!!

Too true. The model and skin look the piece. Nice work.

Of course the big bone of contention for this character will be its ability to spit at opponents. Looks like we're going to have to accept that feature for now (I personally would like it removed).

So I do have a few questions about the spit attack...

What will its range be?
How frequently will this attack be between 'reloads'?
Will the saliva projectile follow true ballistic behaviour and arc towards the ground under the influence of gravity?
Will it have impact splash radius damage or effect?

GREAT JOB!You guys are the best!You devs are just so accurate with the dinosaur models,and I saying this with all my might. When are we going to see another human class?

Here are my exppression changes when I saw this

I think it will probably be announced 2-3 weeks. They don't want to give out all the information at once It'll be pretty lame.
Update:Nevermind, The new human class was announced in the Donator Only Zone.

That's right Which means you need to donate to see it!

How exactly is he "immune" to nets?

* Is he too large to be captured? In which case the T-Rex and many NPC dinos would be also.
* Is he "immune" in the sense that he can almost immediately bite his way out of them? Meaning that he can still at least be affected and slowed down by nets.
* Or is he so immune that well placed nets simply pass through him without effect?

I will be fairly unhappy if it's the 3rd option, that's just entirely unrealistic and probably very frustrating for the Trapper. I think the best would be the 2nd option...he can be netted, but can quickly free himself.

I agree with Veo. They should be trapped yet should be the quickest one out. And large dinosaurs like the T-Rex, well I gues they can't really be captured.

For the rest its a nice dinosaur, it especially look fantastic. Can't wait for the next Dinosaur.


And seeing the next human character is in donator section I gues its the Trapper, as reaction to the Dilophosaurus which is anti-net/anti-trapper. Would be fun having a net gun and two pistols (artwork ftw ).

The devs should just keep the Dilophosaurus "immune" to nets.

That way it will keep the game balanced and I think, They will probably add some Logic into the whole "immune" situation and say that the Dilophosaurus will have some sort of Acid spit and could "rip/Break" the net.

But, seriously though. The Dilophosaurus Potrayed in Jurassic Park was very in-accurate.

1. There is no evidence showing the Dilophosaurus had retractable neck frill around its neck (much like a frill-necked lizard)

2.and spits blinding poison, aiming for the eyes to blind and paralyze its prey (much like a spitting cobra).
