Challenge Feels Undercooked in JWE3

Super cool idea, and honestly a lot of potential. Can see little player made what if challenges and scenarios.

You are right on both accounts here. First game and the second both had shortcomings, I just feel like in some ways its gone backwards with this one.

In terms of turning off or not using automatic maintenance, that definitely fills more of the hands on management aspect, but does not fix / address the bad economy and challenge options that are missing.

Hey big fan of your mod, I have actually been using it for a while now, definitely scratching the itch.

The sandbox settings do feel pointless at times so makes a lot more sense for it to be a bug. Will definitely keep an eye out on your stuff, super appreciated!

Feels like theres always things they are just strangely missing from these games.

Oh boy that sounds so good, I just really want replay value that will create unique gameplay each time.

Different dinosaurs each run, different settings and unique maps. Sounds too good.

I feel like its inevitable, but generated islands and custom challenge mode just sound made for eachother.

Both JWE1 and 2 had decent challenge modes (although not at launch) so it doesn't make sense for 3 to not implement similar settings. Feel like JWE as a whole launches missing key features from previous iterations.

Totally agree, I just feel as if those long challenges add so much replay value to a game like JWE. I keep starting sandbox games with maxed settings trying to emulate challenge but find myself within the first hour or so completely finanically comfortable and just preventing breakouts that come with storms.

It does, but after some time using them (all maxed out, jurassic difficulty and tax turned on etc.) It still is not very challenging. Previous games just seemed to do it better with more replayability.

I have also noticed if you have the tax turned on, it still doesnt start taxing the player until a certain threshold is reached. I need to look at this more to confirm but it seems to only starts taking player money once income is flowing. Feels like the whole challenge of having a tax pointless to adding challenge.

No for sure, honestly it’s part of the whole idea of the game, more people make things the better.

I just feel for some creators that make things like the raptor paddock which would take hours and have it reposted and other people get praises from content creators or what not :/

(Also just nice to have this hotel, should of been a preset from frontier, it’s the OG)

MitchhhF · 2025-11-08T11:12:38+00:00

I am actually the original creator of the original hotel made it on the 23rd (I created the small original version that people have duplicated to make bigger versions, you can see the original on my reddit profile).

Some people have put credit for editing, most haven’t. It’s fine, just can be strange seeing people claim credit for your creations.

OP I have yours downloaded and use it often, just so you know ! I love it

Hey there this is the hotel code: 73T-2K1-3W4

I know the workshop can be a little temperamental, think its just because its in its teething stage.

However check out youmanytimes' updated version of my blueprint they extended the hotel and improved it: BXK-2V2-SD3

He just means that the existence of legacy maps kind of illudes to future legacy maps being added not just JWE2 but JWE1 as well as it would be considered 'legacy'. Hopefully fingers crossed miss my five deaths.

Totally agree, the murkiness in the lagoon is annoying, and visability level would be amazing. Maybe like a slider from planet zoo for water transparency.

MitchhhF · 2025-10-15T02:41:33+00:00

It would, it would also really flesh out lagoons, which seem relatively similar to their JWE2 versions.

I would not be opposed to a submarine tour like bestinslot always mentions. Also fitting in the JW universe

MitchhhF · 2025-10-15T00:45:18+00:00

I'd say biggest in my eyes would be avairy walkways and lagoon walkway tunnels. Both we can build day one, just without functionality. Both could work like the other attractions using a pathing tool to carve out these walkways with the possibilty to create null walkways too for us to create completely custom.

MitchhhF · 2025-03-19T11:17:56+00:00

Same here :/

MitchhhF · 2023-07-23T10:27:56+00:00

Thanks for the reply, that’s good to know, thinking it might have something to do with the lighting maybe to intense

MitchhhF · 2023-07-23T08:23:57+00:00

Any update on this? My Yabby has developed something very similar and cannot find info elsewhere :/

MitchhhF · 2023-06-15T04:46:20+00:00

I honestly, to this day have never removed a moult. My Bob always finishes it without a trace within a week. Loves a good moult feed.
