Thread 714884453

Evolution 3's first species profile and new species confirmed, Lokiceratops. An unexpected but welcome addition.

They should just admit dinosaurs are made up and start having more fun with the designs

>>714884605
What do you people get out of being like this?

>finally get Protoceratops in the games
>any potential fights with theropods can't reenact the Fighting Dinosaurs fossil because the Jurassic universe's Velociraptor is too big as are all the other raptors

Another victim of the monkey's paw.

Marvel started naming dinosaurs now?

>>714885867
They'll add some no name dromeosaurid as a realistic velociraptor stand in

>>714890843
I wouldn't mind Sinornithosaurus being in for that purpose.

>>714884453 (OP)
>still not a single peep of dinosaurs fighting
They haven't even touched the combat system have they lmao

Will this be the first realistic JP game?

>>714884453 (OP)
Should I pick up the 2nd game while it's on sale?

>>714892632
If you get it cheap and know how to get the dlc REAL cheap then sure
Otherwise not a fucking chance

>>714892782
Thoughts?

>>714892964
Oh yeah absolutely
use Creamapi for the DLC

>>714893025
Noted, thanks anon

I'm wondering if any of the new species are going to replace old ones. The Guanlong for example feels like it would be a good replacement for the Proceratosaurus.

Can't wait for Distortus rex.

>>714896864
Keep that generic trash in king kong where it belongs

>>714896864
How are we supposed to keep it contained?

>>714897575
Put a TV in the enclosure that plays cartoons.

I'm excited for all the Rebirth variants, especially the Spinosaurus. And call me weird if you want but I want to see how well they implement the D. rex and Mutadon.

>>714897575
Haven't seen the movie but probably just fences like usual
These games seem allergic to having the dinosaurs actually be difficult to contain, they even confirmed that you can trap them with lakes cause they're hacks

>>714899658
The large dinosaurs can easily smash even the top-level fences, and the raptors and canon hybrids especially will try to escape even if they're 100% content with their enclosures. The deep water won't stop a lot of the dinosaurs who can either swim or walk through it, and the lost of them includes Spinosaurus, Suchomimus, and Baryonyx.

>>714884835
They get to feel smart despite being retarded

>>714901114
>The large dinosaurs can easily smash even the top-level fences
They take like 6 decades to do that and even if they do it doesn't fucking matter because the response team will immediately tranq it
AND EVEN THEN if the dinosaur eats someone it doesn't matter in the long run
>The deep water won't stop a lot of the dinosaurs who can either swim or walk through it
Pretty sure they confirmed earlier that unless the dinosaur can swim it's just cockblocked by deep water

>>714901293
The giant sauropods can easily walk through it. At least three of the theropods can swim through it, and more likely will especially the giant ones like Tyrannosaurus rex and Giganotosaurus.
>They take like 6 decades to do that and even if they do it doesn't fucking matter because the response team will immediately tranq it
>AND EVEN THEN if the dinosaur eats someone it doesn't matter in the long run
It's a video game, not the movies, instantly destroying everything with one headbutt and instantly losing because one person got eaten is retarded. Let's not forget that there's still the storms and shit that will damage fences and buildings and make all the animals less comfortable and want to escape.

>>714901650
JPOG literally did this mechanic better because every time you let a guest die you got hit with a massive fine and popularity hit, JWE is just lazy and barely cares about the core mechanics

>>714884453 (OP)
Needs giantess Scar Jo

Ranger 1 cannot find a path to the location

>>714901765
You lose stars and income and take hits to your cash in Evolution, too.

>>714902159
Yes but it's laughably inconsequential compared to what you'd get in JPOG
Like it's to the point where i was playing in challenge mod and literally didin't even notice the difference while one of my dinosaurs was going on a rampage

So... What does /v/ think of Rebirth?

I honestly thought it was meh. Trying too hard to capture the magic of the original while not understanding what made the first movie so good.

>>714902410
>Trying too hard to capture the magic of the original while not understanding what made the first movie so good.
This entire franchise

>>714902410
>Annoying family
>Shitty mutants
>No Carnos or Triceratops
>Raptors have 15 seconds of screen time
>No Giantess Scar Jo vs D-rex fight
Absolute garbage

I'll admit, the dominion Giganotosaurus is my favorite design ever.
Such a sexy beast.

>>714903204
It's really good, even if it's got too much Acrocanthosaurus in it with that hump ridge.

>>714903623
I agree the hump is uneeded but I really like the design of the head. Kinda looks like a giant iguana. Wasnt a fan of previous giganotosaur designs because of how long they made its snout.

>>714903204
Literally the shittiest design in the franchise
It looks like an evil dinosaur villain from a cartoon

>>714903968
Thats not the indominus rex and the indoraptor though

>>714904218
It's all 3, they're all equally terrible

>>714902896
>that mp4
lol

>>714903204
it looks absolutely atrocious. Like someone drew an Acrocanthosaurus from memory, and then a 3D modeler was asked to make a Giganotosaurus out of that concept - once again from memory

>>714885867
It could be worse, it could be like the Hadrosaurs or Sauropods that can't fight or defend themselves in any way.

>>714903836
A lot of the reconstructions of Giganotosaurus' head are actually based on its close cousin, Mapusaurus, which does have the longer more rounded head. It is refreshing seeing one with a shorter and more pointed skull.

>>714903204
>completely random crocodile scutes that have no place on a theropod
>generic snaggletooth face
>boring grey and black colour scheme
>giant fucking spikes for no reason
It's so childish, like if you took some little kid's dinosaur doodle and ran it through an AI

>>714902281
You'd have to be playing on easy mode for a rampage to not immediately tank your rating for while.

>>714904651
I really hope they address this, the hadrosaurs and sauropods don't even to fight per se, just swing their tails/necks and body slam and kick to knock the theropod silly and make them back off for a while.

>>714903204
>>714903623
Are you high? It looks like shit.

>>714902410
It was hot garbage but the T-Rex was cool

>>714904723
>>714904389
>>714903968
Nah. All other giganotosaurus make him look retarded with the tiny eyes and super long face. This is the only time I saw it actually looking badass. The dinocrisis 2 version made him look a bit too demonic for my taste.

>random indie devs add babies and breeding with better mechanics than frontier's in less time
no fucking excuse

>>714904939
That pic looks 10x better than the JW giga.

>>714904939
That's what it looked like
If you don't like it you should switch dinosaur

>>714905024
I'm annoyed that the babies in JWE3 won't grow in real time.

>>714905024
And don't fucking forget that unlike JWE3 this game has actual seamless growth
It's genuinely inexcusable, the second they add combat the JW games are going to be obsolete

>>714905053
>>714905054
Then by that logic you should accept what the spinosaurus looks like now then and not the iconic JP3 spino.

>>714905130
They made a whole bunch of different models for the growth for every animal and variant of them?

>>714905203
No because the JW spinosaurs look like dogshit beyond the fact that they're the newer morph, they're just ugly
Also comparing the JP3 spinosaurus to every teenager first edgy dinosaur OC is sacrilege

>>714884453 (OP)
Why can't we get cool dinosaur games bros whats with this weird amusemtn park shit type games

>>714905203
I do.

>>714905203
I accept the Jurassic franchise dinosaurs as the fictional movie monsters they are, by that metric they're fine. They're in no way representative of the real animals.

>>714905281
>edgy
How is the Rebirth Spino "edgy"?

>>714884453 (OP)
didn't the second game come out pretty recently?

>>714905394
I was talking about joker giganotosaurus

>>714905281
Liking the JP3 spino was also sacrilege back in the day.
Also it's not just JWR spinos. That's what every scientist thinks the spino looks like now.

>>714884453 (OP)
Needs giantess dlc

>>714905240
Yes, it all happens in real time
Meanwhile in JWE3 they admitted that babies just digivolve into the adults out of nowhere

>>714884835
replies

what are the best dinosaur vidyas out there?? i've gotten Operation Genesis to work on my pc and it's a bit janky desu

>>714905130
>>714905240
I don't see why you would need to make 5000 models for each individual stage of growth. Surely there must be some way you can have just the baby and the adult model and write some code that allows for a seamless transition between the two models?

>>714905532
No it wasn't, as far as the understanding was back in the day it was accurate aside from the stylized head
Not that the JP t-rex's head is accurate either way

>>714905627
You can have the model scale and change in real time
Fucking shitty indie games can do it, JWE has no excuses

>>714902896
>D-Rex
That thing was shown so much in the pre release commercials only to have like 10 minutes of screen time at best. Not to mention the weird scaling where it goes from Godzilla villain size to barely taller than a T Rex.

>>714905575
No wonder the game's still in open beta mode and takes forever to get anything added.

>>714905663
Well this what paleontologists think they look like now. Bipedal barracudas.

>>714905757
Exactly. It was so fucking pointless. They would have gotten so much more out of it if Scar Jo grew to King Kong size and fought it (and accidentally squashed that annoying mexican family in the process)

>>714906023
>Mexican family
I was hoping for that boyfriend character whose name misses me to die at one point. The father was the only non annoying character from that whole family.

I hope they add Velociraptor Scarlett from Rebirth

>>714906487
didn't they add a similar "humorous" scene in jp 1 or 2? i swear i remember they did the same gag in one of the earlier movies, just can't remember which one it was..

>>714903204
It's ok we all have wrong opinions sometimes

>>714905203
yeah i do
jp3 spino is a t. rex with a crocodile mouth

>>714905627
They made three models for all species, and then used a blender plugin or something to blend between them

>>714906381
The raptors should have ate him when he was taking a piss. Idk why they're so scared of killing off good characters. They should reshoot the film so Scar Jo grows really big and accidentally squashes his back legs during her D-rex fight so he looks like a half empty tube of toothpaste and then a pack of raptors show up and finish him off

>>714906878
That makes sense, don't see why Frontier can't do the same.

>>714906487
Do you think she would get embarrassed laying any eggs like that? haha

>>714906736
You're thinking of this scene from JPIII

The dinos I want in 3:

Argentinosaurus
Miragaia
Zuchengtyrannus
Psittacosaurus
Megaraptor
Gastonia

>>714884453 (OP)
Wake me up when we get Planet Zoo 2:Planet Aquarium.

>>714907161
Frontier is working under a corporation's time limit. Prehistoric Kingdom's devs are indies who can fart around for years.

What's with the corporate shilling ITT?

>>714908051
Yeah, why are all of us shilling corporations and their products on this board?

>>714908269
Speak for yourself, as an le epic Redditchan /vee/ rager my only posts are shit talking games I've never played.

>>714905128
that will come with JWE4

>>714884835
Gaythiest tears

>>714906878
How long does it take them to grow up?

>>714884605
This, I put those fossils there as a joke but it's gotten kinda out of hand.

>>714907246
oh, yeah, that's right.

>>714906736
It was in 3.
https://youtu.be/6s9sjPzyQjk

>>714905203
But I love the gator duck and have always hated the retarded JP3 rex with a sail taped to its back.

I just hope that at least the Ankylodocus and Spinoraptor make it into the base game, the latter is a fan favorite and the former's redesign is really good.

>>714902410
I thought it was better than the previous 2 World movies on a virtue of it simply being a film about people going through a location riddled with Dinosaurs and facing danger rather than whatever the fuck dumb shit the last 2 tried to do. Also no nostalgia bait from the original film's cast.

Is the babies not slowly changing over the course of hours really such a dealbreaker?

>>714914227
>watch baby dinosaur
>it fucking transforms into a fully formed adult in a second
What's even the point of adding babies at this point?

>>714914490
They're babies for 25 minutes and I wouldn't be surprised if there's an option to keep them as babies forever.

>>714884835
