ok here the story - each player chooses either one a)leapord b)cheetah c)jaguar I chose these cats because of their medium size unlike a lion or whateva. anyway each player, after choosing his/her character, will start as a baby cup(thats the intro after choosing). The Tutorial: As a baby cup, it will be like the tutorial, players will learn how to attack and kill, climb tree, swim,drag dead courpe. Tribes: There are also tribes in certain areas. Example: a jaguar, which lives around the amazon, has certain tribes that respects it and tribes who don''t. Tribes that despise the jaguar will be hunt jaguars like mad. Tribes that worship jaguars will instead protect the jaguar and even sometimes feed em Predators: I also chose the trio of cats because they all have their own predators. Example: a leopard will be killed(and eaten)by crocs, humans, lions, hyenas, snakes, wolfs and more even though its a predator itself. Weather: There''s also the wheater critirea, it may be drought, rain, mist and so on. Finding food will be harder in the drought, floods and mist, whereelse food will be easier to be found during a sunny cloudy day. Hunters & poachers: There will be hunters and poachers also. they will hunt certain animals from time to time for leather, teeth and other stuff. But they aren''t such a big threat though. Injury, stamina, hunger: Injury, there are body parts that will be injured caused by hunting, falling down from trees, being hunted etc. Stamina, each character will have a stamina bar. the longer the animal runs, the more tired the animal becomes. Hunger, one of the most important thing is to make sure your animal is not hungry. but don''t bloat him( he will become heavier and slower) Leopards eats: small birds, eggs, small apes, deers(gazettes, impalas etc.) fresh dead corpes, rodents. predators: lions, big snakes, crocs, wild dogs, hyenas, dingos. lives: middle-soutern africa. skills: climbs tressthe best out of the 3 can drag dead prey up trees runs second fastest behind cheetah sense of... smell: the best sight: good hearing: good Cheetahs eats: small birds, rodents, racoons, deers, fresh dead corpes. predators: lions, big snakes, crocs, wild dogs, hyenas, dingos. lives: northern-soutern africa. skills: climbs trees the 3rd best out of 3 can drag dead prey up trees runs fastest sense of... smell: good sight: good hearing: best Jaguar: eats: small birds, fish, deers, rodents, eggs. (less food that the other two.) predators: fellow jaguars, big snakes,piranhas, crocs. lives: south africa (amazon) skill: climbs trees 2nd best out of 3 can drag dead prey up trees runs slowest out of the 3 has capability to track animals by heat option sense of... smell: good sight: the very best hearing: good jaguars can track animal using heat. the more heat the more closer to the animal. leopards can smell animal further than other 2. cheetah can hear even the squeking of an animal. The game''s view is like a 1st person shooter without the guns. so what do you think? please post your comments. stuck_home@yahoo.com

How about you fight to become the "leader of the pack"? Since they _do_ hunt in packs, don''t they?..

leopards, cheetahs and jaguars are solitary animals, they hunt alone. Sorry.

As a consolidaton: Lions at least live in packs, the hunting is done almost exclusively by the females though...

And about the 3rd person: usually it is harder, yes. But if you look at the distance a jaguars head is from the ground (15cm if crouched) then the amount of ground detail you need to put in is awesome. So i think it would be less effort to make it 3rd person in order to be able to skip some of the high detail on the ground..

"leopards, cheetahs and jaguars are solitary animals, they hunt alone. Sorry."

One of the best experiences I ever had was watching three young cheetahs trying to stalk a water buffalo. They snuck up close. They started to pounce. Then you could almost hear them think "Ooooops - bit big!!"

Discretion was definitely the part of valour that day
