If you’ve played Horizon: Zero Dawn you’ll remember that moment. You’re heading to Meridian for the first time, you look right. Holy shit. What the hell is that thing?
That thing is a ‘Thunderjaw’. A robot T-Rex essentially. You can’t imagine taking one down until you somehow do.
But you’ve never taken one down like this.
Jesus H. Christ…
This is the work of Australian Game Developer Dan Clayton, who is currently working on Blockpocalypse at Dime Studios in Melbourne.
“It’s hard to unwind playing games when you’re a developer,” he told us. “Always feel like you’re still working. But I’ve been loving Horizon.”
Dan’s been trying to land the most amount of damage with one single shot — you’ll notice he hits the Thunderjaw for 3500 damage, which is just insane. He’s heard of some people doing a little better. Really it’s the work of mod and after mod after mod on his weapons.
Dan initially tested this strategy on a Stormbird, but lost the footage. This suck because I’d really love to see a Stormbird go down like this.
But please enjoy this Thunderjaw being ripped apart with sticky grenades. It’s hypnotic.
