Its impossible to play this game, I would like to be able to, but apparently no one else is playing it. The first few games you are pitted against bots, so you can have some fun, but at about your 4th match I think the game tries to put you against other players then you are just stuck matchmaking indefinitely. Tried many times throughout the day, but gave up at around the 15-20 minute waiting mark. Even if you are able to find a match after this amount of time, I feel like its just too long to be worth it being stuck in a lobby simulator.

I was putting off the game as much as I could as the reviews were absolutely horrible and there was no support for VR. After all this time I decided to buy it on sale and I regret it profoundly. I think I could live with no VR, no ship interiors, you know the stuff that would make the game fun on foot, but what really killed it for me and made me UNINSTALL this crap just now is that the mission loop is the most terrible game design I have seen i a long time.
Anytime you pick up an illegal mission (the only ones that are actually fun and not just "go this place get or deliver that thing", it takes you a long as time to get to your mission objective. Once you are there, any slight mistake, like getting caught with an illegal mode on a tool for a while longer than you can be, being caught with an item you shouldnt, etc will make EVERY SINGLE THING IN THE ENTIRE CAMPMENT come after you and kill you, and most of the time fail your mission right there (in case you survive).
And then you die, which would already be annoying enough, but you also fail your missions and get sent to a prision light years away of your intended position, making you buy a taxi to go back, and make a series of jumps, just so you can get a new mission, and this whole process takes 10-15 minutes to get you back on action.
So theres the gameplay loop, 20 minutes getting missions going to your destiny - Die after a couple of minutes - 20 minutes to go back at it.
Whoever designed this deserves a special place in hell.

I have never posted a review before but I felt I needed to do one for this. This is the most absolutely frustratingly boring game I have played if you are just coming into it and do not belong to a group of veterans that can protect you, I will explain.
I have played a lot of The Isle and PoT before and because I really like dinosaur games I thought I would give this a try as well. At surface level it has a lot more to offer than the previous games because you can play aquatic and flying dinosaurs, theres some cool skill level up mechanics and stuff that look like an mmo, but ironically that is exatly what brakes the game. It has this mega stupid growth system in which you grow indefinately, which sounds fun, but is horrible in practice.
So this is the experience you have when you start the game: you create your happy dinosaur, you go out there to have fun, BOOM, instantly killed, so ok, that might have been a fluke, so you go and make a new one, BOOM, flying creatures swoop in out of nowhere, youre dead. You make a new one, you try to drink water for the first time, BOOM, youre grabbed by a sea creature that kills you in one bite. After a couple more tries you try to group with random people just to delay the inevitable, you and your group can be all killed by one guy who has afk grown to be 6 times your sizes. So after that, you try to afk grow as well, you hide behind a rock for 5 hours just to be a little big enough you think you might be able to fight off stuff. You are wrong, you die super fast as well. And every single time you have to create a completely new one and start over that process.
This is the broken thing that makes it unbearable, in games like the isle you can afk grow to become an adult, but once you do that its fair game, everyone is the same in the sense that they know how strong X dinosaur can be or not be. In BoB, not only things will always be bigger than you unless you grow for weeks and become the biggest in your server (which happens btw and if that person is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ he will bully every other of his species into being unable to play by killing everything they see, like a douche in the sea of Isla Nublar server), but there are also random chances of getting better perks/skills and whatnot, which again would maybe be cool if you wouldnt just instantly die to bigger stuff than you.
So these are your choices when you play it:
a) hide under a rock for a couple of weeks while you go do other stuff,
b) find other big friends/people in game that can protect you until you grow, while you hide under a rock for weeks while you go do other stuff,
c)have a pool of dead creatures that never grow past 1.0 in this ♥♥♥♥ system.

If you are not already playing this, go play The Isle, it looks better and you will actually be able to play instead of just standing there afk. If this was the intention of the game creators on how the game was supposed to be played, seems like its the worst game design i have ever had the not pleasure of witnessing.

The best AC in my opinion, it has everything from a great game experience to an awesome storyline that will make big boys cry in the end.
