Since I had written about the closed network test of Exoprimal in July of last year, it was time to find out precisely what would be different when the open beta began. The game looks and feels the same even after eight months have gone, but I learned a few new things. We'll have to wait till the game launches in July to find out exactly how it turns out since there is now just one mode accessible. For the time being, however, I know more or less what to anticipate.
There is now complete freedom to choose between all ten of Exoprimal's exosuits, including one that employs a grenade launcher and another that uses handguns that can be switched between harm and healing modes. The exosuits themselves resemble characters from a hero shooting game; each one has unique abilities and a focus, such as support, tanks, and damage. The sole mode offered by the open beta is the same as the network test, which is a five vs five PvEvP match in which two teams compete to accomplish an objective. Before going head-to-head in more direct combat, both teams must compete in a number of events.
Although there is a defensive task where your squad must defend an item from the dinosaur invasion, the events mostly center on eliminating every dinosaur that spawns. The game indicates whether your team is ahead of or behind the other teams based on how far along each team is. But because the outcome of the match depends on who wins the last round, I'm still not sure what the purpose of racing is. I would want to see Exoprimal's only PvE modes since I like battling dinosaurs much more than other players do.

To the winner
One of the potential outcomes involves the players gathering a hammer that requires dinosaurs to be killed in order to be charged. Then, an item is struck with the hammer. One team wins when they score enough of these. The second final event is a traditional one in which the two teams engage in combat while they attempt to gather things. Success in Exoprimal< depends on how successfully team members carry out their assigned responsibilities, much as in a hero shooter game. In my most recent final event, I played as a melee tank, which was difficult since my team's support didn't appear to be really interested in getting me better.
Although I don't like PvP, I do enjoy blowing up plenty of dinosaurs.Despite this, Exoprimal is nevertheless much less violent than one would anticipate, as after you destroy the dinosaurs, they usually disappear into cyberspace. This isn't all that shocking given the games it competes with. However, the game works well for me, since I was able to enjoy it at consistently high framerates. In addition, this beta, in my opinion, includes one more map than the network test. However, it continues to provide the same dinosaur action that I witnessed previously—shooting and slicing.
The various game types will determine whether or not Exoprimal will appeal to me, but the game itself is ready for a trouble-free debut in a few months. Although some of us want the Earth Defense Force, things don't always go as planned when dealing with dinosaurs. At least you can use a large sword to slay a swarm of reptiles if you happen to stumble across them.
