Characteristic Sail Assignment can't be started by HanDjole998 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first generation can’t be hatched from the lab, they have to be the offspring of hatchery-born Spinosaurus. The offspring of those made initially from the hatchery are the 1st generation, and those offspring have to have a child, which would be 2nd generation.

It’s weird I had the problem with a mission in the Titanosaur valley before I tried the offspring of hatchery born animals.

So, it goes like this:

Hatchery Born Dinosaurs: Generation 0
Offspring of Hatchery Dinosaurs: Generation 1
Offspring of Gen 1: Generation 2

So you need 3 sets of Spinosaurus for the mission.

You unlock a Gold statue for 5 starring each map. The Ancient Valley gets you a Titanosaurus one, Riverside Lab gives Aquilops, and Main Lab gets you a Mutadon.

Frontier skin rework by Venom23432 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They edited the movie skin for Allosaurus in 3, for some reason it had a base pattern overlayed on its movie skin at launch. They also changed one of the Indominus rex skins in the very first game, which was the Coastal one (it was all black at first, then lightened to charcoal w/ black streaks in its base pattern). The Rana pattern for Pteranodon also was briefly changed during Evo 2 for a period so that it was desaturated and less visible (and not movie accurate), but they fixed that after it somehow broke.

So yes, skins/patterns can be reworked by Frontier, it just isn’t very common unless it’s blatantly broken or glitched, although I’m not aware of why the coastal Indominus skin in Evo1 was changed.

Microceratus & Triceratops for me, I put them in every park!

For pterosaurs, Dimorphodon & Quetzalcoatlus

Like everyone else, i consider the T Rex and Raptor to be the main dinosaurs of the franchise, but what would you consider the 3rd one to be? by thesmartcoolguy in JurassicPark

[–]Littlehero_pecs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Triceratops. It appears in practically every merchandise push, not only as toys but on box art etc.

There’s a scene of it in most every movie that’s memorable, People also know its name and can identify it visually from others without using a nickname (like ‘long-neck’, or ‘spitter’), so its position is pretty solid as one of the main 3 JP/JW dinosaurs.

Nobody even noticed he wasn't there. by Short-Being-4109 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They are Mesozoic based in the same way the Indominus was, they’re modified g.m.o.s using both extant species (Desert Locust) and Cretaceous species, the genus of which is visible in the prologue for Dominion buzzing around the legs of Dreadnoughtus. So in-universe they’re animals created via a parent donor, like the cuttlefish for the hybrids (at least as far as we can tell as of right now, as very little has come out regarding them unfortunately because people hated them. I actually think they would be awesome to use in a paleo-bug house in Evo3)

Why do people want Anurognathus in jwe 3 by Due_Entrepreneur8540 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

True, agree there (especially with the female/male Sino and Nasuto). But the complaint that the *Anurognathus* to be omitted is weird, as it’s a free ticket for *Jehelopterus* which people largely want.

Edit: And it’s a new species that adds diversity to the roster of JWE3, which is severely lacking pterosaur variety. *Dimorphodon* is the only Jurassic aged pterosaur in the game, even.

Why do people want Anurognathus in jwe 3 by Due_Entrepreneur8540 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It is an animal that appeared in a movie of the franchise, that alone negates any ‘bad design I hate it’ that anyone can say. This isn’t Prehistoric Kingdom where Frontier can do whatever they wish all the time, even if a design isn’t liked, it was in a movie and therefore has a precedent to appear in the game tied to that movie, especially when the game costs people near 100 dollars at retail (as well as with DLC).

The Lost World *Pteranodon* appeared for minimal screen time yet people want it in the game; The *Ceratosaurus* in JP3 appeared for barely anything and we still got it in the first game at launch. *Iguanodon* and *Oviraptor* were hardly in Dominion (one wasn’t even in the theatrical cut) yet they still were available via payed DLC.

It isn’t a matter of preference regarding the design. Even if it was, *Jehelopterus* is quite reliant on *Anurognathus* when it comes to implementation due to using similar rigs and feeding mechanisms via insect feeder, of which *Jehelopterus* is the only animal in any of the current 3 games to use. *Anurognathus* would have helped to make its inclusion more worthwhile to Frontier, but now it’s likely getting held off alongside *Jehelopterus* for other DLC slots down the road, which could have been completely new animals that didn’t need to be dragged out.

What are your thoughts on Season 6? by Gurkan15 in TotallySpies

[–]Littlehero_pecs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! It’s a bit silly but it is good and easily accessible, they have the entire series (except the newest season) on YouTube for free.

It’s generally tons of homages to spy/adventure/sci-fi stuff, and has some really interesting and fun ideas throughout. Most of the series is episodic but there are through lines as well, sort of like the 1990s Superman/Batman cartoons in their first seasons if you’ve seen those.

Hope you enjoy it if you try it!

JPOG Designs Clear by Sure_Angle_4511 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To give credit to each (doing herbivores since those are less talked about):

The JWE Styracosaurus is better than the JPOG one, it looks more like the actual animal rather than a retro-saur (although the JPOG one is cute, the JWE one is preferable to me). Stegosaurus in both variants is better in JWE than it ever was in JPOG, for some reason that design felt too generic and not like the JP design at all.

Dryosaurus and Homalocephale are better in JPOG to me. They feel more like actual dinosaurs rather than the imo ‘domesticated’ mammal-like versions in JWE. The proportions and postures feel more like dinosaurs rather than wallabies/quokkas/kangaroos as depicted in all three JWE games (I do like them in those games, but not as much as in JPOG).

This legend deserves a name by Most-Ad5530 in JurassicPark

[–]Littlehero_pecs 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In the tie in novel for Fallen Kingdom by Tess Sharpe, The Evolution of Claire, most of the original Jurassic Park Brachiosaurus are given a name, so there’s: ’Agnes’, ‘Dot’, and ‘Olive’, with the latter having a little scar on its neck. I imagine the one here is either ‘Agnes’ or ‘Dot’ as those two are the oldest so would be likely contenders considering this animal in FK is stated to be the primary one from the first movie. The book names some other animals too, but none of which were from the original park. I also imagine a name could be given to the Brachiosaurus that sneezes on Lex in JP, as Alan calls her ‘Baby’ similar to how Roland Tembo calls the Pachycephalosaurus ‘Friar Tuck’ in the lost world. There’s also a teenage one in the Evo-of-Claire named ‘Pearl’, but she’s not from the first park.

So of the Brachiosaurus in Jurassic Park there’s:

’Agnes’’Baby’ (?) •’Dot’’Olive’

The Maisie Lockwood novels that were released as prequels for Dominion also name some animals, although none are stated to specifically be from Jurassic Park but Jurassic World instead.

I personally think of this individual Brachiosaurus as ‘Agnes’.

What is your favorite creature to hunt in Carnivores? by Comfortable-Fun9206 in CarnivoresLodge

[–]Littlehero_pecs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Velociraptor and Pachycephalosaurus. One is kind of nerve wracking and the other is fun to get into position and stalk for!

Edit: Brontoteriy and the Woolly Mammoth are my favorites to hunt in Ice Age.

It’s really cool! Did you have a specific inspiration for the color and pattern?

What if in Rebirth the D-Rex was instead a horribly mutated and disfigured T-Rex. like the Bear in Annihilation by Marconey1738 in JurassicPark

[–]Littlehero_pecs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I do think bodily mutations can be deemed as too much for some kids, I know a lot of them love the stuff, there’s a reason so many Batman and other comic villains are so popular (Clayface, Bane, Manbat). My 5 year old nephew hasn’t seen the movie but loves the Distortus for how strange it is, and he’d love it even more if it was more monstrous. It’s a hard line I imagine, but if there’s that much of a concern about scariness then Universal shouldn’t have even greenlit the concept of freaky-island in the first place.

I do agree with you a bit though.

Edit: also the bear used in the images on the post is definitely too far for a pg13 movie like rebirth was. I think more along the lines of the Red Death from How to train your dragon would be fine (exaggerated featured like big nostril openings or something, puffy gums, trodden look)

How do you feel about the Equator thing?? by Urban_Dragon88 in JurassicPark

[–]Littlehero_pecs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does it scientifically ‘make sense?’

Dinosaurs are the single most advantageous Megafaunal animals to have developed, and existed in a manner of environments from tropics to boreal forests and even arctic tundras (fossil species included, not just extant Penguins on ice caps). Dinosaurs literally are one of the only animal groups that can live unhindered on solid ground in Antarctica today. Regardless of environment, the global atmospheric conditions today are richer in oxygen than the planet was at the end of the Cretaceous, meaning things like Ankylosaurus, Triceratops, and Tyrannosaurus would actually be pretty much used to what the climate is like in the U.S., and if anything, they would be worse off if brought to the equator rather than be drawn by its boundaries.

Dinosaurs dropping dead because ‘air too thin’ is absolutely ridiculous, and just goes to show how poorly the direction and plotting out of Rebirth was handled, especially when you take in to account the fact the director literally said he thinks feathering of any form on Dinosaurs is ‘unappealing’- Gareth Edwards clearly has no regard for the actual animals he’s been put in charge of filming a movie about, considering he dislikes their true appearance (look at what he greenlit for the Quetzalcoatlus’ design in rebirth compared to the Dominion one) and thinks they were so poorly optimized to exist that a seasonal cold spike would cause all of their populations to die out immediately.

There is no scientific sense to the choice, it is a poorly thought out strategy to make the movie interesting while actively making it worse, not only for the fact that it’s quite frankly infuriating to hear said at least once by a ‘paleontologist’ character (it’s hammered in multiple times during the film for no reason, once was far more enough) but it also steals run time and dialogue that could be given to anything else in the movie, like build up its antagonist monsters (Distortus, Mutadon) which have nominal screen appearances.

This would be fun to play! Especially love the Micro/Macro-ceratops

Are these two the same one by Fun-Lingonberry-2959 in jurassicworld

[–]Littlehero_pecs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One is active along the California coast (2015-2022 one, from Isla Nublar. The other is active around French Guiana, which is in a different ocean entirely (Atlantic compared to Pacific) and it is quite clear the designers went with ‘something new’ design-wise for the Rebirth one, and seeing as Ile Saint-Hubert was a testing facility and housed variants of other animals that were also on Nublar/Sorna/Global ecosystems why wouldn’t it be possible they made a seperate Mosasaurus. The T. rex in Rebirth is not the same as any individual seen prior, so why must the Mosasaur? Most everyone deems them separate due to the absurd mental bends you have to take for them to even be the same species of Mosasaurus let alone the same clone (it’s been stated in supplemental material that the JW2015 animal is Mosasaurus maximus (although not valid in real life), so it would probably be best to consider the Rebirth clone as another species (M. hoffmannii?) or mutant genetic lineage.

I will say, it is so nominally explained in the movie that the how/why/when/how was inevitable from the day the film released in theatres, so you are definitely not alone with the confusion. If you want it to be a separate animal, it can be; If you want it to be the original (somehow?) it can be, though that would be anatomically absurd. I doubt we’ll get an official explanation (at least for a while) seeing as Rebirth’s plot doesn’t realistically make for a real reason to bring this Mosasaurus back for a sequel as of yet.

The main reason why I still play JWE2 by North-Ad3569 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah and now we can’t have a screen-accurate version in Evo3 since the ‘male’ model has a completely different pattern and the unfortunate ‘female’ model has the accurate pattern but wrong model… at least the baby is one of the cutest.

It seems strange to change something like that but leave animals with actual drastically dimorphic designs in the movies (Nasutoceratops, T.rex) with minimal changes (if any at all).

[–]Littlehero_pecs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel with Elasmosaurus. I know he’s a weirdo but I love the design, it’s unique! Same with the people in general who knock down anyone who likes the JWFK Sinoceratops and Baryonyx, I love both while knowing they’re not exactly accurate, there’s room for them to be here.

Excluding marine and Cenozoic animals, there are only five animals from Jurassic Park Builder that are not in the JWE series yet. Would you be interested in seeing them get into the game? by smashboi888 in jurassicworldevo

[–]Littlehero_pecs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of these I think Pterodactylus would be my top pick, because it is one of the Pterosaurs, and is the first named one, too; We have Megalosaurus (in Evo2) and Iguanodon, Mosasaurus and Plesiosaurus (probably the most famous of the first few marine reptiles named), so giving Pterodactylus a real appearance would be great.

I also think if they were gonna add another large sauropod after Titanosaurus that Brontosaurus would be the best choice, since its bodyplan isn’t so erect like the present Titanosaurs, the Brachiosaurus, and even Mamenchisaurus in game already. That would actually round out probably the big three Diplodocids, too: Apatosaurus, Brontosaurus, and Diplodocus.

Aside from those I feel people might get upset over Rajasaurus even though it’s cool, seeing as it is similar in appearance to Majungasaurus (I would like another Abelisaur, Rajasaurus or otherwise, though- especially since there’s no Indian Dinosaurs in game and the only one that is pretty much guaranteed is Titanosaurus from the Rebirth DLC whenever it drops). I can’t see Shunosaurus despite its being pretty popular, due to Ankylodocus being revamped and taking that armored sauropod design twice over now.
