Great work! The graphics look great and the animations seem very fluid. I'd love to know more about your AI - do the raptors behave like pack animals?

The name of the guy leading this project is not welcome in the comunity (atleast in the CG art comunity) I don't know about IGN but could be the same thing there....

Yowch! What an awful exploitation of artists

Except none of it's true.

It was a schmear campaign by a few sour individuals who were involved before money ever entered the equation. We separated ways with them, didn't use their work and so they didn't get paid. People get fired. It's sad, but sometimes things don't work out and it was obviously for the best. We now employ a large selection of veteran industry talent with former developers of Epic, RedStorm, Bungie, Microsoft, BioWare and others. This wouldn't be the case if we had deplorable working conditions.

The Natural Selection 2 fiasco was blown out of proportion as well. Claiming we "stole" the asset is way over board. It was a personal portfolio piece that a former freelancer, Daniel Doerksen created and we simply used as a placeholder until we finalized ours (which is now in the game). It was never meant to be shown off in pre-alpha footage but accidents do happen. You can check out his portfolio and see other Natural Selection 2 inspired pieces to verify this - or even ask him:
