How much of BC will be battling dinosaurs and other prehistoric critters?
BC: The player will be ‘interacting’ with creatures a lot in the game, this obviously includes using our (real-time) individual and team-combat mechanics to destroy enemies and hunt for food. Furthermore the player is able to quite cleverly mess with the eco-system to remove unwanted creatures from the environment. For instance, if I want to get rid of a particularly troublesome saber-toothed tiger that is periodically eating members of my tribe in the mountain level, I could attack it head on and kill it or scare it away, but I could also build a brick wall around its favorite drinking spot so it begins to die from thirst and is forced to move into another area of the world. Our combat system is central to the game, but we also want to give opportunities for the more strategic player to act indirectly on creatures to solve problems. IGN: How does the game change when you come across the simians? BC: Well, for one, most of the creatures you encounter early in the game are attacking you
