No meter on PC. But on consoles its literally gamebreaking. As in you can't actually complete the Jurassic challenge on two maps because the complexity meter won't let you place enough species.

>dino combat system unchanged from JWE1
The way the T. rex killed the Spinosaurus in JPOG by crushing its throat from the bottom was absolute cinema

>>723980985
Every dinosaur design from JPOG mogs like 3/4th of Evolution's roster.

Does the lagoon and aviary still have those fixed round designs that can only be expanded in specific directions?

>>723981742
I miss him so much.

>>723981742
They should have taken this guy with the same sound design and made him the big bad of Jurassic Park 4.

>>723983576
They should have done a lot of things.

>>723978000
>Chinasaur pandering
So you're always hated the Jurassic franchise? Velociraptor has been in since the original novel.

>>723982370
Still the preset round sections, yeah, but you can do a lot more inside them and still release dinosaurs inside the aviaries to make biodomes.

>>723976917
Crocodile scutes on every animal gets really boring after the fourth time they do it.

>>723985486
Velociraptor is from Montana in the JP universe, retard.

>>723985752
The only dinosaur from the JP trilogy that has scutes is the Spinosaurus, which already looks croc-like.
Try again.

>>723985927
Why do people keep shrieking and screaming that the Jurassic franchise is scientifically accurate?

>>723986125

You look like a monkey, guess it's okay to cover you with hair and make your ass big and bright red.

>>723986219
>spino looks like a crocodile, that means it's okay to put scute son it
Yes, glad you agree.

>>723986362
Wasn't aware they evolved directly from crocodiles, better tell the scientists that.

>>723986219
>Carnotaurus has horns like a Jackson's chameleon, that means it's okay to make it camouflage

>>723986624
Weren't you just complaining about people acting like JP is scientific?

>>723986640
>camouflage
I always expected it to start firing photon torpedoes every time it decloaked, because that wasn't color-blending, that was straight-up invisibility.

>>723986362
Spino doesn't really have croc scutes now that I look at him. I think it's really just that ugly ass Giga from Dominion that does.

dino games peaked with this, literally impossible to have good ones in 2016+9

>someone suggests that JURASSIC PARK dinosaurs in a JURASSIC PARK game should look like they belong to JURASSIC PARK
>this makes featherfags seethe despite having a million paleodocs they can go watch instead

>>723988683
And even if they did add feathers the base designs themselves don't look like they belong either.

>>723976454 (OP)
I've only just unlocked the east asia missions in the campaign but I want to say that I really love the maps this time around and modular building is an absolute game changer for enclosures design. I really love the game so far.

>>723988683
The Jurassic Park dinosaurs do look like they belong in Jurassic Park. The non-canon ones are not Jurassic Park dinosaurs, so they can look more realistic. I enjoy this mix of fantasy and reality.

>>723989981
Every non canon dinosaur they added before World existed was attempted to be made to look like they belong.

See The Lost World arcade
See The Lost World PSX
See JPOG
See the Telltale game

There's no excuse.

>>723981742
Dumb nostalgiafags.

>>723990536
What "excuses" are being used? Universal is allowing it, so they have no problem. And you have non-canon animals like Liopleurodon and Elasmosaurus who look like movie monsters in the games, so what's the problem?

>>723991016
They all look like shit and secondaries like you perpetuate it by having no standards.

>>723991193
>They all look like shit
Like everything added after the first movie, so again what's the problem?

>>723991016

>>723991376
So you agree they look like shit, glad that's settled.

>>723991508
And you agree all the movies and every dinosaur added after the first film are shit, glad we settled that.

Anyone here played Prehistoric Kingdom? How do both games compare to each other? Jurassic World Evolution seems to have a lot more management options and minigames while Prehistoric Kingdom have cool non-dinosaur prehistoric animals.

>>723991732
Sure.
That really got you upset, huh?

We've really hit the bottom of the complaining barrel if we're forcing ourselves to argue about what dinosaurs should look like in video games.

>>723991907
As upset as the paleo-accurate dinosaurs got you.

>>723992046
So you are upset lol

>>723991950
It's not that deep lil man.
Why would you add a bunch of All Yesterdays rejects that don't fit in with the JP style? It's just common sense.

>when you design dinosaurs after yourself

>>723994298
It's a speculative paleobook from 2012 that troons latched on to and is currently plaguing dino media.

>>723994553
We've known some dinosaurs have had feathers since the 1980s, and dinosaurs not being walking skeletons with no flesh or fat or muscle is just common sense.

Won’t be able to read the thread until later but WHERE THE FUCK IS COMPOUND FRACTURE? IS THERE ANY NEWS?

>>723994853
And? Despite knowing that, Jurassic Park maintained its 90s stylization as a core part of its brand all the way until World.

>>723980586
I mostly agree with this, but add a game breaking softlock where your researchers simply stop during the extraction process and not only lock every researcher you had on the project from being used but you also can't cancel it and reloading the game/demolishing the science center doesn't fix it, essentially hard fucking you.

Which had the titanic crocodile-scuted Mosasaurus, maintained the Rex and raptor and Dilophosaurus designs, made the Pteranodons ugly and even more non-realistic, turned the Dimorphodon from a sparrow-sized pointy-faced little guy to an eagle-sized T.rex-headed gremlin freak, and oh yeah introduced a completely made-up animal that looked like a Dragon Rex.

>>723996272
Yeah, those were bad too. They lost the ability to make Winston-styled dinosaur designs that were instant classics.

>JPIII makes the Tyrannosaurus rex the big ugly stinky weak-ass giant vulture carrion eater Horner wanted it to be
>nobody complains
>Dominion puts feathers on some of the animals
>people lose their absolute goddamned minds

>>723996217
Case in point.

>>723996453
None of the animals from TLW and III became instant classics, either. How many people have you seen gushing over the Mamenchisaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, or Ceratosaurus?

>>723996530

The series died for 14 years because of it. It got so bad even Horner eventually came out and admitted he was bullshitting.

Very disingenuous.

>>723996842
kneel

>>723996842
It was known for a long time. Hell, a lot of what made JP's raptors etc. so scary was because they had non-reptile behavior and traits added to them. Seriously, you nostalgiafags forget that before Jurassic Park changed perceptions, wide consensus was of how useless dinosaurs were, that they were fat and dumb giant animals too stupid to prevent their own extinction as the earth changed. That they were nothing but savage cold blooded monsters viewed as flawed out of date beings who were slow and drab animals with dragging tails and lizard-like looks.

>>723997160
Read that as "you-tranny-saurus"

>>723997246

Have you never seen how evil and cold birds can act? Is all you know of birds really just sparrows and chickens?

>>723997764
The raptors don't act like birds at all in the film, you only think they do because of Grant's little lecture at the beginning of the movie and have convinced yourself in retrospect that they were because you're an idiot.
That's good writing.

>>723997764
Birds are tranny animals, which is why featherfags are turning dinosaurs into birds.

>>723997246
>that they were fat and dumb giant animals too stupid to prevent their own extinction as the earth changed.
That's basically how Jurassic Park ended anyway despite the viciousness of certain predators, especially in the novels.

>>723997014
>Yet here you are, able to remember them all and what movies they were from.
Yep, I am the world, and the world is me. All mankind knows what I know.

>>723996758
Well the people who designed the dinosaurs in JPIII sure gushed over Ceratosaurus because that wasn't its original appearance in the franchise.

>>723997998
Jurassic Park's dinosaurs are literal trannys by being part frog/amphibian and thus able to change gender.

I love how every single thread about dinosaurs and dinosaur games always and almost immediately turns into the exact same retarded shitflinging and screaming about the exact same nonsense using the exact same copy-pasted posts and images. Almost like there's a discord dedicated to preventing any kind of dinosaur game discussion on 4chan.

>>723998335
Wrong, a tranny is someone that wants to change gender but can't because genetics. The dinosaurs CAN change gender due to genetics, ergo they are not trannies.

>>723985927
>>724000093
In JWE2 you could only find Velociraptor fossils in China.

>>724000470
So they still fucked it up since it's from Mongolia.

>>724000457
The seal spino was never a real theory, it was a shitpost about bad reconstructions with justifications like "we don't have any hind leg specimens, so we can assume the animal didn't have any".

>>723986362
>>724000376

>>723985927
In the book Wu clearly states the amber used for cloning the park's raptors came from Mongolia. Grant describes his find as "an antirrhopus" in the same scene, i.e. a deinonychus.

>>723976454 (OP)
>management games on consoles

>>724000885
So why did they add Deinonychus then?

In Soviet Russia dinosaur place you ;3c

>>724000569
Inner Mongolia (China)

>>724001096
Ah, but see, it's a Deinonychus like >>724000885 said, so it's still wrong.

>>724001005
They didn't read the books either.

>>724001149
No, the JP book raptors are specifically stated to be v. mongoliensis, with the amber having come from Mongolia. Grant's find is presented as a related animal but not the one they encounter in the park. In the JP universe velociprator was just much bigger than reality.

>>724001149
>>724000885
That's still retarded because Deinonychus does actually come from Montana.

>>724001260
Fuck the 2025 series was awful, and not because of the feathers.

>science fags are still trying to pretend Jurassic Park was supposed to be accurate
Just give it up you fucking autists. It's like saying Jaws is accurate to marine biology.

>>724001381
Yeah and that's what Grant found, at the time Crichton was writing deinonychus was known as velociraptor antirrhopus. The skeleton Grant finds is explicitly supposed to be what we'd now call deinonychus. The animals in the park are velociraptor mongoliensis, though, sourced from Mongolia and just way bigger than the real animal because that's more exciting.

>>724001596
Both the book and the movie were trying to be as accurate as possible to the science at the time, considering technical limitations.

Shut the fuck up.

>>724001729
No they weren't. Crichton is on record as saying he knows there were more suitable animals to fill the role the velociraptors do in the novel, but he went with them because the name sounds cooler than "deinonychus". That's without getting into purely speculative shit like spitting dilophosaurs, or the way the movie changed the T. Rex's teeth to look more like non-tyrannosaurid large theropods instead because they thought they looked scarier.

>>724001596

>>724002096

>>724000885
>>724001005
>>724001149
>>724001381
Crichton wrote the novel using information from a book where the author says that Deinonychus and Velociraptor are sister species, despite them living half a world and a few tens of millions of years apart. He then combined the scientific names of the animals into one, Velociraptor antirrhopus. Now keep in mind that even back in the 80s we knew Velociraptor was a small turkey-sized animal while Deinonychus was much larger. Velociraptor also stole Deinonychus's body, what you see in the films and other media is what Deinonuchus looked like, which is why in Evolution Frontier had to go back to Deinonychus' old 1980s reconstruction by Robert Bakker.

Retard.

Im sick of every modern zoo game getting utterly mogged by 20+ year old Zoo Tycoon 2. Why the fuck can't modern devs just make a game that includes everything Zoo Tycoon 2 had and then some? My jaw literally dropped when I watched the JW3 trailer and saw that you STILL cant do handmade aquatic enclosures, its STILL just chaining premade pits together. Meanwhile zoo tycoon 2 not only let you make aquariums whatever shape, height, depth, etc you wanted, they also let you make mixed land/aquatic enclosures AND had multiple sea biomes, not to mention better geoforming, more and better biomes, diverse food options, complex enrichment like toys and play behaviors, scratching posts, shelters, far more fence options, shows, etc etc etc. They even had dinosaurs, and with those dinosaurs came security personnel, breakouts and capture operations, and even fucking fossil hunting and gene editing mechanics, literally a better jurassic world game than jurassic world and dinosaurs aren't even the focus.

Just build a better version of Zoo Tycoon 2, or at the very least remaster it.

>>724000447
Mottled dull red. Maybe some black but I don’t firmly recall and artistic depictions giving her black stripes almost certainly aren’t correct. Huge square head and no spikes. The skin is pebbled and she either was or was simply guessed to be easily sunburned
She also smelled fucking terrible

Both the rex and raptors are curiously given forked tongues, which I’ve never seen any adaptation utilize. The Rex’s tongue is semi prehensile and almost gets Tim graboid style when he and Lex wedge themselves in a crevice
Going off memory so if I forget anything please share

>>724001596
The they are supposed to be just monsters angle is a World era revision to excuse never changing or updating them. If they were truly meant to just be full on monsters from the start then Grant and Ellie would not have expressed as much wonder and reverence, or respect toward them in the films.

>>724002857
Which is why in JPIII Grant outright calls them theme park monsters, nothing more and nothing less.

>>724002857
No, 3 specifically states they're theme park monsters and that real dinosaurs are in the ground.
>Grant and Ellie would not have expressed as much wonder and reverence, or respect toward them in the films.
Irrelevant.

>>724002995
How is it irrelevant? It's like if you get an expert in any field to come see a recreation of something and they somehow act with wonder and awe reserved for the real thing, but directing it at what should be too them, an obvious sham.

>>724002747
>Recent = more accurate
Does anyone actually believe this? Academia in 2025 is a joke compared to academia in the early 20th century. They can't even define what a female is

>>724003215
Because character reactions don’t define what the dinosaurs are in narrative terms. Spielberg framed them as awe-inspiring and monstrous and that’s the whole fucking point. The wonder sets up the horror, and the fact that you're cherry picking those initial reactions despite them reacting accordingly to them being movie monsters later betrays the what little point you had.
And you'd act the same way too if you went to an island and saw a bunch of giant chimeras out of nowhere.

>>723997627
God Frontier is so fucking lazy it's incredible.

>>723986219
>Why do people keep shrieking and screaming that the Jurassic franchise is scientifically accurate?
To be perfectly fair JP was a massive reason for the shift in pop culture from the old lumbering cold-blooded tail dragging dino's that were the archetype.
And the novel is pretty nerdy. Crichton was a medical doctor who realized he could make more money and do less work by just writing airport trash. What elevated his stuff was that in a lot of his books it shows that he did his research to justify whatever story hook he wanted to hang a book from.

>>723998352
Dinosaurs had feathers and unfortunately the deeply autistic people who latch onto dinosaurs refuse to accept the real scientifically accurate versions of them. These people just can't grow up and are too low IQ, emotionally stunted, and brain damaged to do so. It's not their fault they were born defective.

The first game wasn't terrible, and with a few tweaks it could have been fun. But as someone who has put over 9,000 hours into Sim City 4, I know how to play a sim game. And the fact that you can basically print infinite money with two shitty dinosaurs, and the demands for the park are so fucking basic there's no real challenge except maybe needing to double check if you need a bathroom on the 500 mile long meandering foot-path through the park.
And then you have your three departments, who will occasionally just sabotage the park despite everything being 100% for no other reason then you haven't done one of their bullshit missions "breed 5 fuckalosaurus for $200 bucks.

>>723988156

>>724015978
It's you faggots that cry over a movie having movie monster designs in them.

>>724002413
I'm not sure how much people would like it nowadays but I had a lot of fun with the fossil hunting/building/cloning minigames when I was a kid. Felt more engaging when you physical went out and did everything, plus it was a good way of passing time

>>724016568
I think these games had a lot of potential. But Frontier is a shitty, lazy, greedy developer that refuses to actually expand upon and improve their game to reach it. They have released nearly the exact same game 3 times now with very minimal additions and changes, while leaving out DLC content from the previous two to sell as DLC again. They are worse than Paradox. Instead of deepening the management aspects of the game or adding new content and mechanics, they just copypaste the exact same assets and add meaningless cosmetic items and janky modular building that consoles can't handle and guests and dinosaurs can't even interact with.

>>724016967
People wouldn't bitch as much if JP didn't hold a clear monopoly on dinosaur media. Nobody else out there is making dino games or movies really.

>>724017090
It literally doesn't though. "Accurate" paleomedia outnumbers Jurassic Park 5 to 1. It's not JP's fault featherfags refuse to make anything good.

>>724017208
No it doesn't, and I guarantee you cannot back up your claim with proof.

>>724017286
You can literally go to Google right now and search up a list of paleodocs and other movies besides Jurassic Park. The fault is on you for being a shortsighted retard.

>>724017208
JP literally cockblocks other dino media from existing. Planned film adaptations of Turok and Dino Crisis were both pitched before, but their respective studios refused to fund them because to them it was useless to compete with jp. Legendary Pictures in adapting King Kong for the Monsterverse, left out the dinosaurs that are usually present with Kong on Skull Island, instead populating the island with creatures called Skull Crawlers.

>>724017726
>JP literally cockblocks other dino media from existing.
Show me in writing what rule is set in place that makes it so nobody else but Universal gets to make dinosaur movies.
Do keep in mind that 65 and Primitive War just came out.

>>724017726
Nothing is cockblocking anyone from making dinosaur stuff. It's just absolutely none of it is remotely on par with the quality of things in the JP franchise. Just look at Primitive War. It's a stupid book and a shit movie, but they tried and proved that budget matters above all else.

>>724017060
I was looking forward to 2 a little because they were addressing some of the complaints I had, and I assumed they'd add a bit more depth. But it just added more stupid timers and dinosaurs to research, and the economy is still so broken that you might as well be playing with infinite money hax. And if you build your park right you can just let a fucking t-rex roam free eating park visitors and somehow still stay at 5 stars and have en endless line of people coming through the gates.

It always hurts my fucking brain coming into /v/ dinosaur threads; did you guys seriously grow up reading about dinosaurs seriously believing that pictures you saw people draw, or the versions of them on movie screens, were 100% accurate depictions of them? Did it genuinely not occur to your kid brains that they were approximations based on what we currently knew about them, and things may change as we learned more?

>>724001596
I really don't get why this is even an argument. It's common sense that movies take liberties all the fucking time, they're never 100% accurate. Fucking autists, man.

>>724017936
Of course it's not literally Universal shutting down every new movie (fuck yo fangames tho)
Rather they've cemented themselves as the face of dino media for so long it really does have an effect on newcomers
I'm not doom and gloom like him but yeah I'm waiting for a really spectacular new dinosaur film IP to see how it lands
How was Primitive War, by the way? Never came to my theater :(

>>724018183
It's pretty middling. You can tell they didn't really have the money to pull off what they wanted, it's basically a ScyFy movie with a decent budget.

Just finished with this shit. The game is pretty JWE2 if it was good. Pretty much what JWE2 should've been from the start. Dunno if that justifies the price, but I suppose if you never played JWE2, and you really want to play JWE, you should play this I guess.

Game does feel a whole lot easier and stress free compared to JWE1 however, I was always busy with something in that one with the amount of sabotage and disaster going on, while everything is pretty much mostly automated in JWE3.

>>724018043
You vastly underestimate the stupidity of the average person. When Jaws first came out it actually negatively impacted sharks because people started trying to kill them and became hysterical about them.

>>724018476
You do realize Jaws is based of a real life incident, right?

>>724018547
It's inspired by one yes, but is also absolutely sensationalized hollywood slop that created an incorrect perception of sharks.

>>724018547
No shark has ever eaten like 5 people and sunk a boat.

>>724018183
I haven't seen the movie because it was never in any theater near me and seems to only be available for digital purchase on Amazon in some countries. But I did read the book and thought it was profoundly shit. Terribly written, cringe dialogue, dumb/edgy characters. It felt like a bad B action movie but took itself completely seriously. Probably would have made for a better fps game than movie.

>>724014990
Losing how?

>>724018792
Majorly inspired by one, actually, which led to the same result.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jersey_Shore_shark_attacks_of_1916

>>724018821
And we haven't resurrected dinosaurs using frog DNA. Thank you for your common sense observations on the normal state of cinematic spectacle, your input is noted.

>>724017726
Which is fucking retarded because that's never stopped anyone before? Remember when every studio was trying to launch their own capeshit cinematic universe.
Also we had like 15 fucking years between Jurassic Park 3 and Jurassic World.
And as long as its not horrifyingly bad effects, kids will gobble up dino-shit. I know I did as a kid. The first or second movie I saw in the theater was the land before time when I was MAYBE 4, and all I remember of the experience was absolutely losing my shit after the movie because little foot's mom dies. If that movie wasn't first, then it was the re-release of snow white, when I was also about that age, also made me loose my shit at the end because that fucking evil stepmother was fucking spooky!
My mom didn't take me to any more movies for fucking years.

>>724018547
Anon was correct. The popularity of Jaws made people go out and fanatically start killing sharks en masse. The author and creator, Peter Benchley, deeply regretted writing the book and movie and how successful they were because animals were being slaughtered for no reason because of it. The real events the story was inspired by were done by a bull shark or two, not even a great white.

>>724002294
if you ignore this image then you have no proof that they were trying to be accurate

>>724017060
>Instead of deepening the management aspects of the game
They added Scientists in 2 and everyone lost their shit, people cry about "lol no management" but when they add things you need to manage the same people get angry over having to manage shit. In 3 you need to manage the health of the buildings and fences with the Maintenance Team because they wear down over time. What more and types of management is needed?

>>724019141
Actually the species of shark is debated. Nobody knows for sure if it was bull sharks or great whites.

>>724019078
Hollywood types don't believe in dinosaurs and are probably disinterested. You can feel it even in the JP films, as each one of the new ones has had to repeatedly hammer in and project the same idea that people are bored or don't care about dinosaurs.

>>724019259
Shit, with Rebirth they hired Gareth Edwards to direct it and he outright stated he doesn't care about dinosaurs and the character designer from Godzilla 2014, which is why the stars of the movie are mutants and freaks that resemble shit from the Monsterverse. The Mutadon was originally going to look nearly identical to HokMUTO.

>>724019259
>don't believe in dinosaurs and are probably disinterested.
You don't have to like or believe in them. If you were a little boy there is a 85% chance you went through a dinosaur phase. That's leaving money on the table, which isn't in the nature of greedy studio-jews.

>>724019242
Two of the attacks occurred in a river, the only shark that can survive fresh water is the bull.

>>724019208
I want 3 to add a highly-immersive Chef simulator where I can source exotic, expensive ingredients from all across the world and cook an infinite variety of dishes to put on the menus at my Parks at our restaurants, vending machines, and resort room service, so I can RP as a deeply insecure chef who's salty as fuck over not having the recipe to the original Jurassic Park's Chilean Sea Bass, and spends every day of his life seething over how he can create a better dish anyway.

>>724019208
That's not management, that's just mobile game clicker/timer shit. Busy work is not depth.

>>724019242
The fact that one or two of the victims were killed up rivers a few miles from the coast basically proves it was a bull shark. That said, it could all have been different sharks acting independently and driven to attacking humans by ecosystem conditions at the time.

>>724019649
sea bass was cheap as fuck for a long time because until they rebranded no one wanted to eat something called a "tooth fish" and it was treated as a trash fish.

>>724019768
I know, part of his lore is he's fucking stupid and doesn't know about toothfish, and he can't figure out the recipe because he's searching for a fish that doesn't exist.

>>724018476
Going out and killing some sharks as a reaction to a horror movie (which was based on real attacks that caused the same outcome) isn't the same as people preferring stylized dinosaurs in a movie franchise about stylized, genetically engineered dinosaurs.

>>724019920
Wrong. Both are symptoms of poor scientific literacy.

>>724019992
post degree
hard mode its not from the Goa Academy of Street Shitting

>>724019992
It's poor scientific literacy to act like a Hollywood movie about genetically engineered frog monsters in a theme park has an obligation to lecture the audience abut the state of paleontology, actually.

>>724019701
>That's not management, that's just mobile game clicker/timer shit. Busy work is not depth.
If assigning people to do tasks, checking the park's infrastructure, adjusting the amenities, feeding and healing the breeding the dinosaurs, etc aren't actual management, then what constitutes actual management?

>>724020132
The point isn't that they lecture or not, but that people are too stupid to tell the difference and think blatantly incorrect things are true from the media they consume and that in turn naturally taints perception.

>>724020132
Plus if you want something with more direct exposition, the book is right there. Despite its length its a pretty easy read. I read it when I was like 12.
It is cute as fuck to go back and read it now, especially when they start describing the bleeding-edge cray super computers they use to sequence the DNA, and in 2025 you'll chuckle when you realize your phone can probably out perform it.
Andromeda strain is another good example of how quaint the borderline sci-fi tech of the 70's, 80's, and 90's were in hindsight.
Fuck I remember the first gigabyte hard drives coming out, and my dad and I laughed because who the fuck would ever need a whole gigabyte of storage?
Now you can buy a cheapo thumb drive that holds 8 terabytes for like 20 bucks.

Paleofags, it's so fucking simple even a retard could get it:

Jurassic Park is cool and people like cool shit.
If you want people to like REAL dinosaurs, make learning about them cool.

The problem is, you can't do that. You want to power trip and dictate about what you believe is correct in way that satisfy your know it all ego instead of getting people to learn in an approachable way. Why this is, I can't say for sure. But it all comes off as jealousy for Jurassic Park's success.
It's like lefties that can't meme. They can't make any sort of meme that's organically funny and relatable, that's why it's mostly death by word salad that you can always tell it's made out of spite and seethe.
Lesson to be learned there.

>>724017726
That's fucking retarded though, 2005 King Kong's animals were fucking great and the film was a huge success.
The xbone game was great too.

>>724020360
See, that's your problem. You'd rather call people stupid than show them why dinosaurs are cool in a way that doesn't make them feel stupid, like this anon is saying >>724020610
You have an ego problem.

>>723985486
The Chinese version is as small as a turkey. It has no relation to the JP version apart from its name.

Is there a point to 1 & 2 now or is this a case of sequel has everything + more?
I mean even a minor autism mechanic I'll miss would make me play thru sequentially

>>724020610
>If you want people to like REAL dinosaurs, make learning about them cool.
>>724020814
That assumes that dinosaurs are meant to entertain us rather than just having existed as real animals. That is narcissistic as hell.

>>724020610
You mean like how anytime you see those movies that go on about being "based on the incredible true story", it's automatically ignorable as truth because it's absolutely always sensationalized to hell and back and makes shit up just to create drama and entertainment?

>>724018412
Is it fun?

>>724021080
No, what's narcissistic is dictating how it is people need to interact with paleontology.
You are who this meme is making fun of.

>>724020360
To be fair the renaissance people were copying the roman ruins that surrounded them in italy, which was a lot of pillars and white marble sculptures. It wasn't supposed to be Historically accurate, but inspired by the ancient world that had remnants, and older mystical heroic age that was the foundation for western civilization. Like John Ford said "When the truth becomes the legend, print the legend"
Then in the time after the renaissance, when it became history, it just blurs together for anyone who doesn't give a shit about that period of history.

>>723998352
mEDS now scalie

>>724021274
My favorite is when they can't even legally claim that, so you get the "Inspired by..." which basically means "Some guy got lost in the woods and went missing and there's no way to say that he WASN'T eaten by a bigfoot so lets say he was."

>>724021284
So in other words you consider it virtuous to be peddled lies by scam artists massively overselling their stuff.

>>724021586
No, that's a whole new sentence.

Depicting a featherless dromeosaur is like depicting a hairless smilodon. It's just dumb.

>>724019141

>>723988156
Carnivores game suck ass and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.

>>724021282
It's pretty much more of the same, without the garbage shit campaign of JWE2, so it's pretty ok and fine, tho most fun probably comes from the kinda fag that enjoys making some super nice looking space for the dino and look at the animals all day, I'm mostly a managementfag that likes numbers, and these games decently scratch that itch, tho nothing amazing.

>>724021675

Back in my day it was called bantz and people could handle it.

It's funny how people mock feathered dinosaurs as giant chickens because the ones from my friend's farm would hunt and eat live mice, lizards and even small snakes, viciously maul intruders like raccoons or hawks and even cannibalized one another sometimes. Birds are still dinosaurs and the only reason we were safe from them is because they're smaller than us.

>>724021980
If you want bantz go play with your friends in voice chat.

I liked one and two but as always they go in the wrong direction. The crowd still clips through each other and might aswell not exist but lets add 20 more types of dinosaurs and 15 more rocks.

>>724022086
>admitting you can't handle the bantz

>>724022015
It's obvious that most people don't fear birds nearly enough. Big eagles and owls are fucking scary and dangerous, let alone things like emu, cassowaries, and ostriches which are basically living velociraptors/terror birds.

Cassowary mentioned, everyone take a shot!

>>724019252
Hmmm
Elaborate

>>724022409
Dinosaurs themselves are not scary, JP is scary because of framing. Birds are some of THE most diverse animals on Earth, and yet it's always "chickens bad".

>>724021274
Hey, The Amityville Horror WAS based on a true story, there's a book written by the Lutz family themselves about it.

>>724022409
To us, no. But they are a violent and predatory animal. Watch the way roosters kill each other in a fight and then come back and say that. They jump and slash at their opponent's throat with their talons, just like the velociraptors.

>>724023750
people seriously underestimate how much variety of colours there is in reptiles and birds
hell, even some mammals have some interesting colouration, like some of the big cats
the bull rex and tiger raptors in jp2 were a step in the right direction, and the descriptions of the rex and dilophosarus in the jp novel are also seem interesting, if just because we never see them how they were described

>>724023760
T-Rex and blue whale can tank it. Don't put your tranny birds in the same category.

>>723996217
Science suggests that larger animals forgo hair and feathers because they already have a high internal body temperature. (See elephant for a real life example)
The reason birds have feathers is because they are small and scrawny and would freeze to death if they ever lost all their feathers.
Dinosaurs would be the opposite of that and your feather cult remains unconvincing to anyone who understands biology.

>>724024557

Is this true?

>>724025189
The people who claim all dinosaurs including giant ones are feathered can be ignored. That doesn't mean feathered dinosaurs are a Jewish demon lie to destroy the white man.

These threads make it hard to believe the feathered dinos are not just a psyop to distract people from talking about the actual gameplay.

>>724025527
why wouldn't jurassic park make feathered dinosaurs as a novelty?
they could do it, and if people want those they can show them to people
the same arguments used for why JP dinosaurs wouldn't have feathers (they're genetic abominations not actual dinosaurs) also mean that they would have the ability to have feathered and non-feathered dinosaurs in separate exhibits

hell they could probably put feathers on a stegosaur if they wanted despite them never having had feathers to begin with

>>724025634
Well...

Jurassic Park/World video games should be survival horror, not business simulators

>>723997434
I do that with all dinosaurs that have tyrant or tyrannus in their name.

Trannysaurus rex
Yutrannyus
Zhuchengtrannyus
Trannytitan

It's great to be constantly thinking about trannies, isn't it?

>>724025963
You are never getting another Dino Crisis.

>>724025963
What about all the other genres of games that Jurassic has had? You really want the original SNES game to not exist anymore?

>>724026084
which one?

>>724025963
I feel like the reason we're never getting that because Trespasser failed.

>>724025527
the fucked up thing is that the jw cartoons are far superior to the movies in almost every way, and they're still rife with spielbergisms and 'modern sensibilities'
although i am surprised that they had the balls to break up the lesbian couple in the sequel show while also turning the dorky guy from the first one into a gigachad without any of it feeling too jarring

>>724025790
Probably because all the dinosaurs they made are too big for feathers.

>>724026528
Transpasser you mean.

>>724026571
>the jw cartoons

>>724026659
I think you should kill yourself now

>>724026617
they would make smaller dinosaurs intentionally kept docile for petting zoo purposes
they did that in world and frankly it's one of those things that Ingen absolutely would do even going by the original novel in which Hammond had a miniature mammoth

>kikes are ruining the dinosaurs now

>>724019609
Birth rates are collapsing EVERYWHERE outside of like three districts in India and a half dozen African countries. No one has kids anymore anon. And the ones that do don't go to expensive movies, they leave their kids watching autoplay on youtube for 8 hours straight. The market that you and I were a part of in the 80s 90s and 2000s is closing down and dying off, and corpos now don't want to just be a big fish in a shrinking pond, they have to cater to vultures and make ALL THE MONEY in the biggest most normie slop ventures possible.
Same thing with toys for kids, toys are manufacturered by whoever is the cheapest bidder with no thought put into the actual rough and tumble shit kids will put them through, because the only way to make money in that industry now is minimizing costs because income is shit.

Now there are other reasons why the JP/JW movies are pushing harder and harder on monsters hybrid shit, mostly because they want to lock down the franchise for themselves with IP fuckery and maintain the accidental monopoly on dinosaurs that they stumbled backwards into.

>>724026827
Except most feathered species are carnivorous, they probably wouldn't put them in a petting zoo.
Also think of the molting, they already have enough trouble keeping their pens clean of giant piles of dino shit.

>>724026571
>>724026704

Another Camp fag? How surprising
Whoever decided to write in romance to 4 and 5 of CC need to be thrown to the Autismios Rexes (even if Ben crushes it after the time skip)

But yes, everything is okay once you realize everything after Stay On Mission is a fever dream brought on by rocking waves and eating Ben's grubs

>>724027398
That's the least egregious thing in that scene, if you didn't notice it's being mind controlled with a PS4 controller.
That T. rex is playing possum so it can run away, by the way.

*ahem*
In the coming few months you will notice featherfags start to dwindle and concede more. This is because they know they've been too hard on fighting males and need you for the upcoming war. Don't get complacent; they don't really advocate scales either. They still hate you

>>724027509
one thing i will give s4 is that i liked the first couple scenes with yas having ptsd, but iirc it just kinda gets swept under the rug
i also disliked how she just got over it off screen in ct, they could've done something interesting with her relapsing in at least two instances but nah she's fine

raptor-bros...

>>724027687
JP and JPIII are the only movies that respect the raptors and it pisses me off.

>>724027681
There were sniffs of her freaking out but I understand. Wanted to fucking strangle Darius for pulling more save the dinos shit when Yaz was melting down right next to him

Why doesn't Universal do some book accurate miniseries on the original novels that adheres to the tone and missed plot elements of both?? They keep fumbling with the movie timeline, why not try something new?

>>724028118
I don't want black John Hammond and Grant learning to care about his mixed race grandkids, thank you.

>>724021586
think Arby's recently got sued over this as their ads had sandwiches with something like at minimum 3x the meat it actually contained.

>>724028118
Bro, it's just generic action films with dinosaurs. It's not that deep.

>>724027892
her rightfully giving everyone shit for wasting their chance to finally leave to save the dinos, again, was pretty good
although i think nobody gives a shit after that

>>724027850
tlw was schizophrenic with the raptors because the initial scene with them is fantastic but suddenly the movie takes a total nosedive the second they get into the workers camp
honestly i just turn it off after the long grass, all those schmucks got killed by the raptors as far as i care

>>724028118
it's spielberg, no joke
he owns some of the rights and enforces certain rules on the franchise through amblin
one of the big ones is that at least one kid must be included, and that the kid/s can never die

>>724028423
Yeah, that's pretty much what I was getting at.
What a waste of a great design.

Everyone's so busy forcing themselves to shit flames in seething manufactured rage that I have to point out Evolution 3 brought back Operation Genesis' Site B random island generator after Evolution 2 made automatic hatcheries a thing.

>>724021284
Get into cryptids or something if scientific accuracy pisses you off this much, smoothbrain.

>>724029854
See what I mean? You'll never win anybody over with an attitude like that.
And that's why you'll continue to always lose to Jurassic Park.

>>724029985
Why should it be on them to be nice when you guys are always hysterical, mocking, and disingenuous first?

>>724030092
And now you're wallowing in self pity. There's that ego.
Be the bigger man.

>>724030161
You roasted him good, we will never be swayed by the infantile tranny kikes.

>>724030161
Why? as >>724030326 shows many are zealots who already made up their mind

>>724030406
Because you're either going to continue to stay the same, getting roasted by Jurassic Park fans for coming onto their turf and trying to browbeat them over a movie, or you can nut up, flip the table and play your own game by making something that competes.
Not you, literally, by the way, just in general.

sooooo, is there any new mutant dinos or nah?
Frankly we are playing god already so why not make some vidya only Frankenstein monsters in exhibitions?.

>>724030674
All seven of the hybrids are in the base game. Distortus rex and the Mutadon will come in a Rebirth DLC.

>>724030674
This is one thing they get wrong about the new dinosaurs.
Jurassic Park has a quasi-experimental feel to their dinosaurs, gimmicks or otherwise.
>What if we spliced the Dilophosaurus with a frilled lizard and made it shoot venom like a cobra?
>What if we took a chameleon and mixed it with a Carnotaurus?
I know it's not literally that, but there's that quality to them that makes them fun. You don't really see that anymore, except for something like the Deinonycus, where it looks like it was spliced with a basilisk.
We need more cool looking Frankensaurs.

>>724031675
No thanks, after three movies of hybrids they need to go back to the actual dinosaurs.

>>724031786
So... like I said? Those were basically all the "actual" dinosaurs.

>>724031932
The actual dinosaurs weren't fantastical monsters that were obviously just Hulk-smashed together from different animals. The only one that was was Dilophosaurus and that was because they were so desperate to make sure it didn't step on the raptors' toes.

>>724032073
Well yeah I already said that. But they would be better if they adopted some more lizard like characteristics int heir designs. That's what made them interesting and fun.
They did this with other species they introduced too, like the Herrerasaurus and Troodon and those are fan favorites.

>>723988041
faggotus jeetosauricus

>>724032279
>They did this with other species they introduced too, like the Herrerasaurus and Troodon and those are fan favorites.
I still find it hilarious how much /v/irgins piss and shit themselves over "omg all the new dinosaurs don't fit because waah waah Jurassic aesthetics!" and meanwhile we get a Troodon that's almost exactly like the one from JP:TG compete with venom along with a very JP:TG-inspired Herrerasaurus, not to mention the very monster-ish Liopleurodon and Elasmosaurus and the weird-looking Tylosaurus.

>>724031675
Ye but when modern movies do it, you get the crocodile Baryonx or the Godzilla Giganotosaurus design. I prefer they don't do anything stupid at all and play it straight, or better yet, have these movies not exist at all.

oh no no no no no

>>724032764
But the Troodon doesn't have glowing eyes or the white red and black color scheme, the Herrerasaurus is basically just a generic version of it, it doesn't even have the blue tongue, the Tylosaurus looks boring and generic compared to TT game.
But Elasmosaurus was cool, I understood what they were going for.
However I think the Crocoplerodon design would've served better on Kronosaurus, too many people see the WWD/Charlie the Unicorn Lio in their head.

>>724032798
Yeah those are ass, not all of them get the Winstonian aesthetics right. All you really have to do is just make the Baryonyx look like a mini JPIII Spinosaurus without the sail and keep the gator scutes and it would look fantastic.

>>724033040
Pterosaurs didn't have feathers, they had pycnofibers, so I don't know why they felt the need to talk about this.

>>724033040
Based take, too bad the movie was ass.

>>724033040
Most people know little about dinosaurs and are retarded, especially movie directors/media people. Did you know that Trevorrow in regard to World, was actually not interested in having the Therizinosaurus in the movie originally? You know why? Because he didn't think herbivores could be threatening or dangerous. He only changed his mind when he actually saw the design for it because of the huge claws.

>>724033161
They're both pliosaurs with a similar body plan, and that's the thing, I honestly feel that Frontier balances JP-style with paleo-accuracy really well, especially regarding similarly-shaped animals. The four plesiosaurids are like this:

-Elasmosaurus, quite stylized with deep-sea fish eyes, a draconic head, and spikes everywhere
-Styxosaurus, relatively accurate but has a short head and three flesh fins along its neck
-Plesiosaurus, pretty accurate except it has a literal snake's head complete with the large scales
-Attenboroughsaurus, which is 100% paleo-accurate

So among the same group you have several different styles so they stand out from each other and aren't boring. Unfortunately they didn't do it with Gallimimus, Struthiomimus, and Archaeornithomimus, which is why Ornithosaurus is feathered.

>>724033394
you can really tell when someone doesn't know shit about animals when they say shit like not knowing that herbivores could be dangerous
the meme answer is always hippos, but there are far smaller herbivores that i would readily keep my distance with as well, like deer/ elk/ moose
probably assumes all herbivores act like farm animals, and even then, horses and cows can easily kill a full grown man with little effort

>>724033641
The snake head plesiosaurus is kickass, I love it.
That's the type of shit I want to see n my Jurassic Park game.

>>724033651
That's literally it, people always assume eats plants = docile and funny like the moo cows they see on TV. They have no idea that herbivores are often far more dangerous than carnivores because they're fighting for their very lives while the carnivore is just getting dinner. But it's funny seeing their faces and reactions when you tell them the Big Five of Africa only contains two carnivores.

>>724033821
i think a lot of it also comes from morons who have never seen a wild animal larger than a raccoon
the amount of actual retards i see getting way to close to a bear to take pictures is really making me question if most people just have a death wish or are passively suicidal

>>724034170
>Romanian authorities said he got off his motorbike and tried to feed a bear, local news outlets reported, before it dragged him into a ravine.

>In one video, he rides past a bear on his motorbike, commenting: "Look, a bear! How beautiful".

>In another clip he watches a bear in a gravelled area as the bear turns to approach him. "It's coming towards me," he says.

>Dragos Onea-Arges from Mountain Rescue told the news outlet: "The bear followed us the whole time. She was very agitated. She attacked us a few times too."

>The bear was later shot dead.

>>724034170
City and suburb folk are stupid and ignorant. Nobody teaches them about the dangers of nature.

Hey guys what's going on in this thread?

>>724034170
>>724034170
The biggest misconception I’ve seen regarding animals among regular people is that herbivorous animals are docile and friendly.

>>724034718
AAIIIIIIEEEEEEE WHERE ARE THE FEATHERS

The game is really lacks big therapods. Campaign locks out Spino, Giga, and Rex until you are like 12hrs in. Who tf wants to play with shitty tiny ceratopsins for 12hrs before getting a cool dino?

>>724033651
>hiking on trail
>steep bank rises to one side
>fucking yuge elk plods out of woods opposite
It literally just stood there menacingly for a minute or two before walking off but I was backed against a wall and shitting myself the whole time realizing it could effortlessly kick my shit in if it wanted to lmao
Horses are even worse

>>724035414
Fortunately I love ceratopsids.

>>724035414
The pacing at which dinosaurs are introduced is incredibly fucking shit, ye. I think they made a mistake not leaning harder into the dino marketplace mechanic, only introducing that shit when you're in Malta, at which point you already have your own fossil collection and don't need the market dinos. It could've been a good way to get some cool dinos early if it happened to be on the market.

Can you build bridges and tunnels in the game?

>>724036085
Yes, above-ground tunnels anyway. Guests and vehicles won't use the bridges, though, you can't put paths on them so they're strictly decoration unless you use a glitch.

>>724036168
>Guests and vehicles won't use the bridges, though

>>724036318
It really is weird which demands Frontier listens to and which they don't. Sauropods and hadrosaurs still can't defend themselves and still no working bridges despite people wanting those since the first game.

I'm just happy these guys are in the base game, likely because A) they didn't want another Secret Species pack fiasco and B) they can't breed so all they had to do was port them over along with the Indominus rex, Indoraptor, and Scorpios rex.

>>724036085
>>724036168
>>724036318
>>724036465
With how frequently the path finding breaks down for the maintenance teams and how little effort is put into the park guests, not having bridges or tunnels is almost to be expected. The dev team might legitimately have no idea how to reliably make sure their simplistic AIs understand how having overlap paths on different Y-levels works, while maybe something like attaching gender dimorphism and infants might be easier to staple on.
There's no good excuse for Sauropods and Hadrosaurs just being walking fleshbags for meat grazing. Literally just do a half-ass copy of JPOG and give them damage dealing animations and randomize if it's successful or not. Just one giant arm-swing slap from a Hadrosaur should lay anything out and likewise with a sauropod stomp.

>>724037271
I'm still mixed on the guest thing, on the one hand the individual guests from JPOG were cute and funny but it also meant you had relatively few guests visible, while in Evolution they're all just for show but you can see lots and lots of them. At least the attractions and amenities directly influence the four guest types so there's a good compromise.
You can actually get very creative with making tunnels both above and below ground, from building ones out of the many rock and tree options to digging a trench and covering it, the paths and vehicle tracks can go through them. I just wish Frontier would listen and put in things like elevated walkways, people movers, and boardwalks and simple bridges for the paths and tracks when you move them over water.
That's exactly what I'm saying, they don't need to fight, just have a few defensive animations and roll the dice on if it uses them/is successful with them. Shit, just use their attacking the fences animations if they can't do unique ones, a Brachiosaurus kicking with its front leg or an Edmontosaurus swinging its tail will knock any medium and large theropod on its ass.

Feather Utahraptor in JWE2 looked awesome. Feather dinos can look cool, its an athletic bald eagle/crocodile the size of a grizzly bear.

>>724043013
It looks like a fucking tranny that nobody would take seriously, it's as scary as a Barbie doll.

@724043252
Worthless bait

>>724043304
Featherfags being retarded as usual.

>>724043669
Jurassic Park is literally about gender changing dinosaurs

>>724025435
There isn't a single feathered dinosaur in the entire novel series, JP1-2-3, or Trespasser.
Dinosaurs never had feathers in JP-verse.

>>724034408
in leafistan most suburbs are still well within wild animal territory, hell i technically live in the city and i still see bears at the end of the street at night
granted i'm right beside a forest trail but even still, bears, deer, coyotes and even the odd mountain lion are still roaming around the in bush nearby
the largest culprits for retardation i notice are the new imports, although that doesn't surprise me as much as it should anymore

Disappointed at lack of dino lewds this thread
And what was there instead? Homos busy reeing about nonsense
