It's a fucking herbivore goddammit

There's like 8-10 different colors once you get the game rolling. Their color pattern varieties have to be unlocked as you play. Useful for telling apart the same species with different genetic make-up.

>it's scary to question the truth
I've always wondered about the mass-extinction theories. I mean, the amount of time that the dinosaurs were around, why is it not plausible that they simple died out naturally on their own? Not all at once, but even 1 species every thousand years is perfectly reasonable. I mean, humans in a inhospitable region would eventually die out if it weren't for them being smart enough to invent methods to get around the issue. And we know of lots of more modern species that have gone extinct on their own (or would have without human intervention) just because shit happens. When you start talking millions of years passing by, it's kind'a unrealistic to think the possibilities aren't endless.

Do you know the story of the Hippo?

Fun game worth the money but it stands in my mind at least as one of those games that really could had gone down as one of the true greats. So much about it just feels off for some reason. Which is to speak nothing of the near entire lack of interaction with guests. Still for 20bucks I would say its a must play for dino games.

Dracorex are very unforgiving. They have low thresholds for both species and population. If they're escaping (or any dinosaurs are escaping, for that matter) and there's no severe storm going on, it's because their pissed off. Click on the dinosaur and look at their needs. Make sure everything is in the blue range.

If one escapes, that means the other dinosaurs might go in the 'red' because a population requirement is no longer met and their comfort level will drop. You need to get them all together and keep them all together (in the same enclosure) long enough for their comfort levels to all climb back in the blue.

Comfort bar only goes up when all of their other conditions are met -- and it takes time. The comfort bar could still be red even without all conditions met so you have to do your best to keep them contained until they're all comfortable. You can tranquilize them to freeze their comfort bars and keep them from dropping. It's a time-juggling act really. You'll get once you try a few times.

Jurassic World Evolution was made using some of the same elements of Planet Coast, but NOT the full Planet Coaster engine. The reason for this is consoles. And I'm not trying to start a console war, so cool your tits. Planet Coast (and Planet Zoo) are both PC only so they can take full advantage of all the perks that come with the keyboard/mouse as being default controls, as well as the power of the PC itself. I believe they put JWE on consoles for licensing reasons. Frontier has said several times the JWE is NOT part of the "Planet" universe and that it was toned ...

you know, fuck it, I have a picture. Hang on... Okay, hjere. Only the first paragraph is relevant. This is a post made by a Frontier rep on the Planet Zoo forum in response to someone asking if Planet Zoo would be dumbed down like JWE was.

Main issue is the lack of actual management involved in the game. The focus was pretty much entirely on making it look pretty which worked out I suppose but it means the game lacks alot of depth.

>lacks alot of depth.
Not always a bad thing. Realizing I could save-scum that 3% viability $15million dinosaur was pretty nice. You just gotta do the save before you click 'Incubate.' It seems to calculate the failure when the incubation starts.

It also seems to calculate more than 1 point of failure. Like it runs a check 2 or 3 times (all when you press incubate). Because the failure rates don't calculate correctly. A 70% viability dinosaur (with no Research Facility Success mods) will fail 50% of the time in practice.

god damn I relly hope we get more decor soon. especially basic park shit like benches and signs. I have so many areas that could be improved with little details like that.

Assuming they are all Cera's and you're not mixing up another similar looking species, I'm not sure. Check each one 1 at a time and see if they're all happy. Also, pic related might be useful.

Savescumming isnt really tied to the depth, I'm talking more about guests actually existing like in Zoo tycoon instead of how they are in JWE where they're just a representation of park stats. JPOG also did this and was also miles better with security systems which are super lacking in JWE.

I doubt they're gonna do anything like that. The next two DLC are both more dino packs. And, going back to the Planet Coaster/Planet Zoo comparison issue, the game probably can't handle heavy decoration. I think there's ... what, 3 trees, 5 rocks? Something like that. I'm sure they left it out on purpose.

It's worth noting that Raptors and the IRex are compatible which isnt shown on the graph.

Dinosaurs are not like other species, they were gigantic, massive and thus required extremely specific circumstances to both evolve and survive. Imagine the amount of plant matter needed to sustain one sauropod, let alone a herd of them, then imagine all that plant matter going out from an asteroid impact and how many of those creatures reliant upon them would die. Then the carnivores that survived off those sauropods have nothing to eat, and start to possibly resort to cannibalism reducing their numbers and chance to recover even more. They were way too big to adapt to radically new changes in their environment caused by a freak accident from space killing millions of years of free reign

Imagine being this retarded and having access to the Internet.

I think it's pretty old. Indoraptor has some quirky compatibility as well and it's not even on the chart. Also, there's a lot of dinos classified as "Medium" so the chart really isn't clear on that. But general rule, I always put
>1 large carnivore (max species count, so 4 T-Rex with gene mods)
>A couple of Raptors
>The minimum species required for every single Giant Herbivore.
Slap them all in 1 giant pen.
Adjust the shops and facilities a bit.
Boom, 5 stars.

we dont need more dinosaurs though we need more decorations. without them every park feels the same. i fucking hate that they had to make this for consoles as well because thats the excuse every time. if this game is so limited by that alone that they cant even add a few signs and fucking benches then they shouldnt be able to add in new dinosaurs with new animations.

fuck frontier and fuck anyone who says we shouldnt have more decorations. one bench does a mile more in terms of gameplay than adding ten new dinosaurs that dont do anything different than the others will.

>To this day, only people that are heavily-invested in archeology ever actually "find" fossils. Funny how no random joe ever does, just the people who have every incentive to fake them.
It's almost like fossils are buried deep in the ground and inside rocks and you can't find them unless you specifically dig and lookf or them

Same could be said for a couple years of dry summers, though. Why does it have to be a cataclysmic event?

they really need a new medium carnivore class for ceratosaurus, metri, majunga and baryonyx

I refused to research the rabies vaccine because it caused carnivores to hulk out and escape. Operation Genesis is the only good Jurassic Park type game.

Because we have the impact craters of the mass extinctions that can be dated to the same time that the dinosaur bones of those periods began to die out and stop appearing in the fossil record and new fauna began to appear in their place

Oh, no, don't get me wrong. I agree about the decorations. They should exist. I just don't think they CAN with the console limitations. Have you have dabbled in Planet Coaster? There's at least 700-900 decorations. I never counted. But loading that much stuff into memory for a park is way beyond loading a single dinosaur and it's animations. Sure, the dino is prettier on screen. But 5 different design signposts would use more resources. Some of my Planet Coaster parks took like 3 minutes to load because of how complex they were with decoration. And if they added that decoration only to the PC version, console people would have a shitfit.

Dinosaurs don't exist, god told me when I wrote the bible.

Carbon dating back that far is only accurate within 100,000 years. That's a pretty big gap to say anything conclusive. It's why mass-extinction theories are always called theories. It can't be proven. All we know is a bunch of shit died around possibly the same millennium.

>we know
no we fuckin dont, fuck off retard
thank you

that still isnt an excuse. loading 10 or 20 static immovable signs (probably from one or two models at most in this case) will not be more of a hassle than 10 or 20 moving dinosaurs all of which are animated, moving, and interact with the environment.

If anything simple decor should be the easiest thing to add to the game regardless of console limitations.

Someone please help me find this game that's been a memory for years.

It's some kind of time travel(?) involved game. Its about fighting dinosaurs. It's not Turok. You're part of a hunting crew traveling time in a big drivable RV to get footage for your show and there's product placements for like shaving razors.

I'd say PS2 era. It had that really early source engine look to it, as if it was a mod or something. It was almost certainly 2010 or before then. The product placements stand out in my mind, they were for a shaving razor. I believe the main weapon you had was a dart gun. There was a supporting character. Female that gave you orders from the RV

They had the base DNA though, they only filled what was missing with other animals.
The closest possible thing now is editing (adding or removing) genes in developing regular chickens (from the egg) and so far they've managed to give them tails and teeth, but the scientists are not allowed to let them live for some fucking reason. It's considered "unethical" or illegal or some stupid shit like that.

The still had most of the base DNA in JP though. They just filled in the gaps. In reality you'd basically have to build dino DNA from nothing which is next to impossible. Sure, you could combine croc/bird DNA but you'd probably get some kind of abomination.

I wish there was a dinosaur monster hunter like game. You hunt just not dino but sabercats and the like. Semi-open world, 4 multiplayer

Even if DNA lasted that long, cloning would still be almost impossible since current technology only allows us to clone existing animals (by placing the cloned egg cells in a surrogate mother)

its also fake :^)

i'm baffled because i never had a game do this without giving me a specific error message

Would be interesting to see it explore the gaps on our knowledge of Sorna between TLW and JP///

You could theoretically encounter both versions of Velociraptor packs in the game if they traveled from the two coasts in-game, and possibly even add the Spinosaurus, current new lore seems to suggest the Spino was created after the events of TLW but I don't think it's concrete canon yet.

Stay with me now user. Alright. You ready?

Mr X from RE2 but it's the first generation of the newly hatched spino let loose on the island to test its killing capability. The mercenary team you play as trying to escape is just a happy coincidence for the people running the test because now they can see it as it hunts trained soldiers. Afterall the Spino WAS engineered to be insanely hostile to life itself for some reason

It's difficult to imagine why the Spinosaurus would be created that early on but it would totally work, that thing is very clearly not normal and Wu's notes seem to imply it was possibly the first purposeful hybrid prototype of an Indominus so I can totally picture it being clever enough to pose meaningful threats in a game like that. Not to mention JP///'s entire plot supports the notion of it focusing in on prey and hunting them for possibly miles without giving up, if it stalked you throughout the game like Nemesis or Mr. X it would totally line up with it's movie depiction. Also it would be cool if you have a sequence inside the bird cage, and one of your team mates dies in there, explaining why there are human skeletal remains inside there in the movie

Anyone in a nice Ark server?

Should I get the deluxe edition of planet zoo so I can play the beta? Or should I just wait a year for it to go on sale? Im kind of torn.

Bird cage connection would be a kino little detail. I'd also add a segment when your entire squad is dead/elsewhere and you're running in the jungles from a raptor pack you trip on something in the dark and it's a SPAS-12 with some overgrown vines on it and a faded bloodstain, couple round missing from the load. You use it to fend off the raptors until you come across the maintenance shed nearby to hide in.

Cool idea but it wouldn't work, the first movie and Muldoon's death took place on Isla Nublar, TLW and JP/// are Site B / Isla Sorna the other island

Easy fix. Act 1 is escaping Sorna on a boat that's caught up in a tropical storm. Act 2 is escaping Nublar.

They mean they 100% quadruple checked the spelling on that post before they actually posted it

Makes me curious when the first work on creating Jurassic World began. I know Masrani bought INGEN in 98 after the San Diego incident but I have no actual idea when they began work on the new park, or the rounding up necessary to quarantine the old dinosaurs on Nublar into the restricted zone.

Why do people act like it's impossible to enjoy classic Jurassic park style dinos as if feather dinos have overtaken everything when absolutely NOTHING in major media uses feather dinos?

NOOOOOOO EVERYTHING WAS A CHICKEN

Seems like they rushed it honestly. There's an almost 20 year gap in parks and World had been running for awhile before the movie took place so it'd have to be within that 16~ year timeframe. I'd have to guess they started immediately after the incident

relocation took place for about 5 years after the incident and the park took another 5 years to build IIRC

Apparently JW itself opened in 2005, that means they only had 7 years to relocate, build a containment perimeter, and then actually build the new park itself let alone clone the first batch of Dinosaurs in the park. It's no wonder they decided to do things like capture the old T Rex and such, they really must have rushed this venture along to get it off the ground fast and get a return on investment

The funny thing is it actually worked, the park was a complete success and was working perfectly fine up until the Indominus Rex fiasco. If anything knowing they worked so quickly and probably cheaply to reproduce the park it's a miracle that nothing went wrong sooner, I'm amazed they even were brave enough to take the risk though considering all the destruction and notoriety that bull Rex caused in San Diego. I think there was full disclosure of 'most' of INGEN's secrets after the Masrani acquisition too, so it isn't like the public doesn't know about the first park's failure. Hell the SD incident clearly gave credence to everything in Malcolm's book which apparently became a best seller, it'd be interesting to see what the crowd turn-out was like the grand opening of Jurassic World.
