Its special features include being able to break the Trappers nets, and being immune to them. In that sense, it is the counter to the human trapper. ''Pteranodon'' is intended to be the flying class, and ''Compsognathus'' is planned to travel around in swarms, no other details for their attacks have been revealed as of yet. |
