Wildlife

DSxGIIR · 2012-06-11, 09:29 PM

I got a question, why isn't there any kind of wildlife that lives on planet Auraxis? I mean it's feels kind of weird playing a game with no kind of wildlife. I would find it interesting to see these kind of things in game. At least it makes the game feels like it has some kind of life living on the planet besides humans. It's just my opinion, but how you guys feel about it and I'm not saying to making where it PvE or anything.

What the TR didn't kill in the raping of Auraxis for mineral resources,the VS slaughtered in their labs doing "sientific" research.

Animal lovers,rise up and fight for animal rights, join the NC.

I'd be alright with maybe some bird flocks flying around or maybe frogs in the swampy areas. No herds of Auraxiraptors or anything crazy.

But, gotta have bears.....

Cheers,

Yeah, flocks of bird or something would be cool. At least people can get a good sense of being on a actual living planet.

As I recall, the original lore made mention that Auraxis had no natural fauna. When the TR showed up, all that was found was plant life. I don't know how much of the original stuff they changed for PS2...

This might go against the "lore" however. I mean we are talking about a war ravaged planet. There may be nothing but vermin....

Cheers.

I agree 100%. Birds should be put in, they don't have to be interactive at all, but just for some eye candy. And also bug/frog noises in swampy areas would be awesome!!!

I want gigantic birds, but only as fossils.

Indeed that is true, but from the look of the bases layout and things like that, the game seems to take place Hundreds of years since planetside 1, I mean over time things do change, evolve and adapt...I think I'm going to deep into this topic, but it's just a thought.

But Flocks of birds, frogs, rats and insects would be much of a distraction but enough to know there is some form of life.

My guess is most everything's been shot, bombed, burned, OS'd, run over, run through, hot dropped on, plasma'd and then shot and blown up again just for good measure
