Happy Valentine's Day!
We hope everyone has a great Valentine's Day today!
While the development team is hard at work on the next game patch, we have a whole bunch of classic items coming back to the store with some seductive discounts.
Check out the details below and read on for a hint at what's next for Primal Carnage: Extinction...

We have dozens of returning skins, mutations and taunts back today. From the spiky Saevus Rex to the adorably cute Spitter Rolling Taunt, this week's selection shows off some of the lighter side of making things extinct.
Pick up a Valentine's Gift to share the love, showering up to 24 other players on the server with presents and receiving a special item as a thankyou for your generosity!
[h3]Up Next: Flyer Focus[/h3]
Currently in testing are some fairly big adjustments to the flying classes. The next update for Extinction will be a major TLC pass on Pteranodon and particularly Tupandactylus. We're experimenting with changes to how Ptera grabbing works to make it a bit more reliable and trying to find a sweet spot with making them a tad more maneuverable without speeding them up too much.
Tupandactylus will (finally) be receiving its secondary ability with the next game update, giving it both a new attack and a way to get a burst of speed quickly. We'll be testing it soon and can't wait to share more about how it will work. Needless to say, you'll want to keep an eye on the sky.
[h3]Cooking & Console[/h3]
As mentioned previously, we're getting close to having our new game cooking process ready to go. This is a different way of packaging PCE's game files, which is much more efficient. Our latest test puts the full game install size at 9.6GB using the new cooker. That's more than 20GB saved!
We hope to have the new package cooking process ready to go for the Flyer event in early March. It's an important change that benefits the upcoming PS4 rework as well, optimizing things for both platforms. The team is currently investigating ways of clawing back even more performance on PlayStation 4 in addition to the new packaging process, and those adjustments will have positive impacts for everyone.
With any luck we'll be able to tell you more about all of the additions and improvements coming to console soon, and hope to make an official announcement in the next couple of months about when these will be landing. For now... we have a lot of programming to do.
[h3]Happy Valentine's Day![/h3]
Thankyou for playing!
Keep an eye out, as we'll have Featured Class Weeks returning after Valentines has concluded.
See you again in March for the flyer update!
