Tyrannosaurus Rex
From Turok Wiki
[edit] Introduction
The mother of all dinos, Mama Scarface is the smartest and largest of all enemies on the planet.The T-Rex is featured only at a few instances in Turok. It appears however, that their size is dramatically larger than actual T-Rexs' were. These dinosaurs are very resistant to damage, and can kill Turok in a matter of seconds. They can often be heard in advance to being seen. A loud roar and quaking ground distinguishes the fact that a Tyrannosaurus is nearby. See the article mama Scarface for the complete story of the Tyrannosaurus that terrorized Whiskey Company.
[edit] Countermeasures
The best way to kill a T-Rex is to pound with a hail of gunfire from a dual wielded weapon, or a powerful rifle. Always aim for the area around the eyeball, as this can stun the dinosaur for limited amounts of time. To avoid being eaten, equip your knife so you run faster. You may want to run backwards, and dive to the side if necessary. A shotgun's flare usually distracts a T-Rex for you to get to cover in time. The powerful jaws of the Rex will instantly kill you if they get close, and the tail will also do damage to you.. Also note that if you get backed into a corner, there is nearly no way to escape.
[edit] Trivia
- The T-rex in Death Valley is actually a Giganotosaurus. Slade gets it mixed up since the two look similar, apart from the skin colour and number of fingers each creature has. You can't kill it with the weapons you have now so you must avoid it. A log, and a small crevice like structure are the usual safe spots to keep it at bay. There are plenty of raptors to keep it stalled as you run for the cave.
- This T-Rex is similar in appearance to the one seen in Spielberg's Jurassic Park.
