Hopefully this thread hasn't been done yet, but I haven't seen one...
Anyway, what's some real dumb things you've done in a Turok game?
-
The other night I was playing the Death Marshes and 2/3 ammunition dumps, I died while escaping. I know it's been a while, but I still know how to play this game. xD
I had the brightness at normal (I love the dark ambiance) when in the past I would've kept it high, but I was running blind into a wall/box. Flashlights/Flairs don't work on the emulator but it was a stupid way to die, none the less. The second time I kind went the other way, when I should've just used the map to follow the way I came.
I'm sure you all have much more funnier noob moments, though? xD
-
Mine is simple but kind of nooby... falling off cliffs in Turok 1 hehe
-
Is finishing level 2 without finding keys a noob thing. lol. I didn't find a single one then I was back full circle to the start. Oh well, moar roarin explorin to do.
-
Sometimes I forget the Purr-Linn are immune to the Cerebral Bore in Turok 2 and wonder why the damn thing won't fire.
Literally every time I play Turok Evolution I get the Next Weapon/Previous Weapon buttons mixed up and cycle the wrong way when trying to get to a certain gun.
I don't always miss ledge jumps in Turok Dinosaur Hunter, but when I do, It's because it was a huge gap and I forgot that side-jumping covers more distance.

The laws of physics in the Turok universe deem strafe jumping an efficient way to travel much faster. :P
Yeah, the Purr-Linn just swat the bores like insects. I forgot about that one. xD
-
I'm not going to lie I don't think I ever have done anything nooby honestly :D I beat all Turok games. Most nooby thing I did I would guess took place in Turok 08 xD and that was getting killed by the damn soldiers. Those soldiers have unbelievable aim imo...
-
Yesterday while playing The Lair of Blind Ones in Turok 2 I realized near the exit portal that I haven't gotten the Heart of Fire Talisman despite having the Eagle Feather in my inventory. I had to backtrack all the way near the beginning, only to get lost a few times and almost getting myself killed by a Guardian.
Also, I once got killed by a Campaigner Soldier or Poacher that I didn't see while taking a corner with low health.
-
The Lair of The Blind Ones is a confusing level. It's a pain in the butt to backtrack for that talisman, though. Even from where you get the Eagle Feather. I still do it because I'm clumsy in those lava filled areas. xD
Also, there's an ammo respawn location on the lava, so that's another reason. The only other lava I remember is in the Hive of The Mantids.
-
Yeah, right now I am backtracking in the Hive of the Mantids as well. I remember that there is a hidden switch that deactivate the barrier blocking the Warp Portal for the Talisman Chamber. It's been a while since I finished Turok 2 so I can't remember where it was now.
-
I fell off of the mountains in the first chapter of turok evolution and died after all these years... :P
I know exactly what mountain you're talking about most likely lol xD
I have done this in Turok 1 before not purposely lol especially when I was young
-
When speed running Turok 2, in Port of Adia, when preforming the water speed boost glicth in the second water puddle, which leads to the first child, I can hardly ever make a successful jump onto land for some reason. The hit box is in my way.
-
The first time I had played Turok Evolution in 2003, when we rented it from Blockbuster, I made it to the second area where the brachiosaurs are in the water, and couldn't figure out how to get to the next area. So I gave up and returned the game. Little did I know that I would come back to that game much later as a huge fan.

Dinosaur Hunter: I used the grenade launcher to blow up a boar to get health, but I missed and hit a tree which collapsed and knocked me off a cliff.
Turok 2: I Ran out of arrows and got killed trying to shoot enemies with a flare gun instead of pistol.

xD Flare gun.
What is the point of the flare gun btw?
-
The maps are not so dark so yeah, not really useful...
The most stupid thing hum....using the grenade launcher with being to close of the enemy, just noticed i lost a lot of hp and i was near to die...the radius was bigger than i thought, not at least, it wasn't punitive.
-
Something I constantly do is skip past my Tek Bow to the standard one and then die because I haven't worked out that I can't fire my Tek Arrows... Twenty years later and I STILL do that. Drives me mental.
