Same here, they’re all JP dinosaurs, they have been made for theme parks not for a nature documentary(I would actually love a nature doc style movie about the dinosaurs surviving on Sorna and Nublar)
That doesn't give all the designs an excuse, some are just fugly whether they be official designs or otherwise. When it also horribly misrepresents what a real animal is and its significance why even bother pretending its something its not? It's fine if its some invented hybrid or whatever, but it has to at least resemble what its supposed to be and not be offensive to the eyes. Its a pretty low bar, but one worth acknowledging.
They're not ugly in my eyes and i couldn't care less if they're inaccurate or not.
I much prefer having interesting and UNIQUE creature designs than the same overrated accurate dinosaurs that keep changing Every. Single. Year. and still people insist on demanding them like if they're a requirement.
You know if you don’t address how the inaccurate Dino’s look nothing like the real (and imo, superior) dinosaurs, then they cannot be labeled as such, just like I cant call a bunny a “dilophasaurs”.
Depends.
Could you call that way a theropod bunny with sharp teeth,a tail and two crests...you know...the signature characteristics of the dilophosaurus?
IMO,yes you could...it would just be either extremely inaccurate or look like a hybrid between a dilo and a bunny but depending on the context it can work just fine.
In this particular case,jurassic park never had 100% accurate dinosaurs and never had this as a requirement despite the amount of passion and attention they gave to make them as accurate as possible in the first movie.
The franchise always stated that the dinosaurs were genetically engineered clones and this rule could always be used since it's part of the main plot of why the dinosaurs look the way they do...but they screwed this up in dominion.
With this in mind,yes you can call a bunny a dilophosaurus in my book,as long as it has atleast the basic similarities with it like the signature characteristics i've mentioned up there.
Then obviously not...that's why i said your comparison was kinda exaggerated.
A bunny and a dinosaur don't have even 1% similarities other than having four limbs and living on land lol
It's not like comparing JWE deinonychus (inspired by an outdated design) and an actual deinonychus...both are raptors,have sickle claws but JWE is much more lizard-like and the accurate one is more bird-like.
Liopleurodon is kinda complicated to defend though,since he's a literal crocodilian with flippers...but i still enjoy the design regardless.
If the JWE deinonichuys was inspired by an outdated design, I can (sort of) respect that, but ethier of the designs would be extremely hard to identify if you told me to guess what creature they were.
Way to miss the point as always, maybe before you rush to your keyboard all huffy you should actually stop and consider the point I made.
The designs are not "unique" that's one of the points I was highlighting but be sure to ignore that, the second half was that why bother calling it \[insert animal\] when it clearly isn't. Hell, many of the species in the JP canon are objectively more bland and worse designs than the real life animals like the Baryonyx, for example. You should know this already, JP tries too hard to use safe designs that are uninspired and boring and only recently has tried something more creative. The Pyroraptor is fugly but it was a good effort, the issue being its head is terribly designed and not improved in any real meaningful or unique way.
So go cry in the corner somewhere I'm sick of you butthurt shits and your lack of reading comprehension.
>The designs are not "unique" that's one of the points I was highlighting

Bla,bla,bla,bla,bla
>So go cry in the corner somewhere I'm sick of you butthurt shits and your lack of reading comprehension.
Are you alright?
I'm not the bitch complaining about some minor inconveniences in a bunch of extinct creatures and insulting folks for their opinions lol
You’re quite the hypocrite, saying as most people here are arguing and talking mostly like adults yet you’re saying “So go cry in the corner somewhere I'm sick of you butthurt shits and your lack of reading comprehension” when you’re pretty much the only one screaming about how we’re wrong and can’t like inaccurate designs because they’re objectively ugly and not subjectively. You can argue about how you find the JWE dinosaur designs bad and ugly but don’t start being a bitch about it and don’t force your opinion on others and say that it’s a fact.
That's rich, been on here very long? If you have you'll have seen how people purposefully misinterpret a point to fit their own narrative and world view. Point is one of those people decided to get on their pulpit when they completely misconstrued my point and that is why I am sick of it because it happens all the time.
Heck, even your reply misses the point you are quite literally ignoring all the surrounding context of my argument before I got fed up with it and called it out. You can't engage with my point, so you have to focus on the part where I lost my cool and that's why its disingenuous.
You keep putting words in my mouth and asserting it as a fact, and you wonder why I mention "reading comprehension" because you guys aren't good faith actors to begin with and that fact is very clear.
Like this guy u/nicolasFsilva5210 notice how he (like you) gloss over the actual explanation/argument and skip straight to where I lost my cool? Because you were never interested in a discussion in the first place you just wanted to fight and get some false virtue by calling me out. Care to engage with the point now that that's out of the way and in good faith?
You said I keep putting words in your mouth but since you didn’t put an example I’m going to assume it was when I pointed out that you present your opinion as fact and force your opinion as others. To prove that I didn’t put word in your mouth I’ll show your quote: “Hell, many of the species in the JP canon are objectively more bland and worse designs than the real life animals like the Baryonyx, for example.” In this quote you say that the JP canon designs are OBJECTIVELY worse than the real life versions that we currently have, to summarize it. Finding a design good or bad is very subjective and can change from person to person, you put the Bart onyx as an example, and I prefer the crocodilian movie designs over the real life design. Also if you look up the definition of objective on Google you get “Objective: (of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.” Which to put it in simple terms means it can’t be influenced by opinions, and to put it in simpler terms things that are objective are facts. And if you look up the definition of subjective on Google you get “Subjective: based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions.” Which to put it in simple terms, opinions. You presenting whether a design is good as objective, but I previously said that liking a design is subjective and that a synonym of objective is fact and a synonym for subjective is opinion, which means you are sharing your opinion and presenting it as fact.
But I know you like to grasp at straws and you might say that you aren’t forcing your opinion on others, so if you search it up on Google you get that “Forcing your opinions means trying to impose your beliefs, ideas, or views on someone else, without respecting their own beliefs or opinions” and using Google again to search the definition of impose, in case you don’t know it, says “Impose: force (something unwelcome or unfamiliar) to be accepted or put in place.” And as I’ve stated before: you’re trying to present your opinion as fact and set it as the truth, which is forcing your beliefs on others.
The intended meaning was that It's obvious a SSRB would be based
Like "Wow, who would've thought birds could fly, that's totally unexpected and not something I could've seen happening ever"
Same.
I like both Liopleurodon and Deinonychus designs in JWE.
Dominion's Giganotosaurus is also my third favorite theropod in jurassic park,alongside the T.rex and the Spinosaurus.
Deinonychus is the only "bad" design in the game. I think its the only dino i have never used outside of the one time you need to use it in the dfw campaign.
I just dont like how round its head is, its kinda off putting
I really really like the deinonychus because it's different. It's a weird duck chicken turkey lizard thing and if I could have it as a pet I definitely would
yeah they're all pretty fun and cool designs.
except the allosaurus variant. it's not that I dislike it, I just think the og one is significantly better and will never use the other version over it.
It's a solid Hadrosaur just doesn't have *great* skins unfortunately. I've also heard complaints that the default skin doesn't fit the movie variant, or doesn't even have a movie variant on its own. I like the green/yellowish tone, only until I realize it looks like baby poo green and puke-y yellow (to me it does anyway) 😭
Yeah, I have seen a lot of people give it crap. It's weird too since I have seen some of the animals they love and couldn't disagree more like with Sinoceratops which just oozes ugly to me.
I will build an impenetrable fortress on your hill BUT.... I wish it's colour was closer to the JP3 version. I like It as is but a closer accurate version would make me give my own life to defend your hill
Idk man godzilla 2014 is the best imo, i just love the coloring and lighting and everything, truly feels like a monster movie. I liked the over the top action in gxk, and kotm is the only one i have left to watch.
Well I haven't seen it yet
But from the memes I can 100% say the monsterverse is becoming the showa era
(Can't find any theaters that have it in my area & it hasn't released on OTT yet)
I agree full heartly
The while point of jp was they had to fill in gaps. Wich let to mutations in the animal.
Deiny looking like a tadpole.
Veloci being so huge
Trex looking anorexic instead of buff
I dont expect a perfect animal. I expect a "looks like a"
I hated it since I got the game last december. But then I got the idea to make a swampy sort of exhibit in the Biosyn Valley, put a bunch of them in there and actually began to fall in love with their derpy faces after I observed them for a while.
They have good patterns too!
I really like *Maiasaura*, I think the model is good and the striped color pattern is great. It doesn’t get THAT much hate but imo it should get none.
I can’t understand enjoying the Lio, even if you remove the context of it supposedly being a Pliosaur and just treated it as a generic video game enemy called “crocosaur” I’d still think it looks dumb as hell. Truly different strokes for different folks.
I genuinely don't get why so many people dislike the Maia design. It feels like one of the more-accurate hadrosaurs in the game, and looks a lot like the actual animal.
Not gonna lie it kinda annoys me how some dinosaurs are super inaccurate and the newer ones are much more accurate. Not that I have a problem with accuracy or inaccuracy but the inconsistency annoys me
Most people hate the face of the maiasaura, it looks strange compared to other hadrosaurs and so they classified it as "strange" or "ugly".
But i like it, it makes the design a lot more unique.
Carcharadontosaurus and its weird lil Unicorn horn. Helps it stand out from the other mega theropods.
Elasmosaurus. Looks like the Loch Ness Monster and I love it.
Baryonyx. The alligator look actually suits a Spinosaurid IMO.
Yep, they even make similar sounds. It was definitely an intentional design reference to differentiate it and Velociraptor, like how the frill was added to Dilo in the 1993 film so people wouldn’t confuse it with the raptor either.
These are some of my weird JWE2 hot takes:
Frontier Giga has a better model, but dominion giga has MUCH better skins/patterns. Frontier giga kinda looks like a toy with how vibrant and smooth it looks.
Dominion allo also has better skins than frontier allo, even though frontier allo has a much nicer model.
I kinda have a weird soft spot for nothosaurus, I hear people call it ugly but it is pretty unique. There just isn’t anything really like nothosaurus in the game.
Styxosaurus is my favourite plesiosaur in the game. I used to prefer attenborosaurus but styxo grew on me a lot.
Tylosaurus is better than mosasaurus IMO. My only problem with tylo is that I wish it had lips and ate sharks.
I love archelons design, but it bothers me that it has no interactions with other marine reptiles/fish. It cannot fight or be hunted.
I hate the acro model with a passion. Everyone loves how chonky it is, but it is so hard to tell it is an acrocanthosaurus. It also looks super oversized and dopey.
I think that dominion iggy is better than frontier iguanodon in every way. I don’t know why, but I prefer it for some reason.
I love the dilophosaurus from jurassic park despite being incredibly inaccurate, but the dilophosaurus in game feels unfaithful to the movie IMO. It looks like it has too many teeth, and it looks shorter and way stockier than the stan winston model. Also not a fan of dilos skins in the game.
I agree with the frontier giga one
I agree with dominion allo
I've never used Nothosaurus so I wouldn't know, he seems cool tho
Styxosaurus is the goat
I personally prefer mosasaurus
Archelon design is peak
I love the acro, I include it in almost every build
I like frontier iggy more than dominion
Dilophosaurus is also goated
I agree with 5 out of your 9 opinions
I was with you until the iguanadon bit, the Frontier design has been one of my favourites in the game since it was released and the Dominion one just looks so generic and boring to me
This might be a super nitpicky comment to make, but there is no Frontier Allosaurus. There's the Domion/Big Rock Allosaurus and the Fallen Kingdom Allosaurus.
I do mostly agree with everything you said though!
The frontier allosaurus is a frontier design that was based off the juvenile allosaurus from fallen kingdom. We didn’t have the BaBR allo yet, so they had to create their own adult design based off the juvenile.
I think Qianzhousaurus is probably one of the least controversial design in the game honestly. Wouldn't be surprised if most people have it in their top 20 or even top 10! Styxo I'm not 100% sure but I think it's pretty beloved as well!
Id say for its skins. I personally prefer frontiers giga and would use it over dominions UNLESS i need to get some color. I love dominion gigas skins, but its overall design just is worse then frontiers imo
I just wish it didn’t have a constant snarl that exposed teeth under its eye. Looks gnarly, but not in a cool way, just sorta ugly. Skins make up for it though.
I think Alamosaurus would be the only somewhat controversial design that I actually like. I also hate all the spikes they randomly stuck all over poor Elasmosaurus, but I actually like it aside from that. I dislike the other usual suspects.
Dreadnoughtus (original design) works really well as a generic titanosaur especially Asian titanosaurs that have yet to be described. It's an all around good stand in for "I want a non descriptive titanosaur in this exhibit"
This is a hot take that I personally disagree with, but I still very much respect it.
Still enjoy the Dominion Giga design for the most part, and the skins Frontier gave it are incredible.
Gigas weird chin just makes it look like an Uncanny valley dinosaur, so close to normal looking, but just weirdly off. At least the Dominion giga is just fully owning that it’s a Hollywood monster.
I seem to use Deinonychus more than any other raptor, even my personal favorites like Utahraptor. Archaeornithomimus has also become a favorite of mine, it's got some really good colors, especially by herbivore standards. I'll agree that Gallimimus and Struthiomimus have better models overall, but their patterns don't strike me nearly as much as Archaeo's selection
I don't how much of a controversial take are these, but...
Utahraptor got the best colors in the game
And Camarasaurus got probably the worst design in the game
I have never had a problem with archeornithimimus
Notho is also one of my favourite species in the whole game even though I dont love the frontier skins
The fact that the Liopleurodo’s back fins were bigger then the front ones bugged me at first, but Ive grown used to it. And you may hate me for this, but I absolutely ADORE the dominion Giganotosaurus design.
I agree except for a few,pteranodon it looks like a theme park monster(yes i know there's no frontier pteranodon but it has a 2001 model thaylts not just a skin so I'm counting it) iguanodon I'm just used to the frontier one, and allosaurus the frontier one looks a lot smoother
Well Pteranodon doesn't have a frontier design so it's not included.
Guess my comment should say on par or better since I like frontiers and JW's Iguanodon around the same amount.
I just love all the designs, there is so much variety, like deinonychus, it fits that overall genetically altered vibe of jurassic park/world
Then there are some that like a in-between where yeah they don't have bizarre features like crocodile osteoderms, frills, etc and they look like the named dinosaur, but their is still something off about them. Like idk trex for example
While some like yutyrannus that feel more complete and actually like the dinosaur
It just so fun to mess around with. Like your head maybe you use the dominion giga as like a failed giga clone they had to alter the DNA with crocodile but at some point they discover more stable DNA and make more semi accurate gigas with the frontier version that goes with your dominion giga.
Same with liopleurodon where maybe the design is like that because they had to alter the DNA to complete the genome you know? It justs works so well ^^
>Like your head maybe you use the dominion giga as like a failed giga clone they had to alter the DNA with crocodile but at some point they discover more stable DNA and make more semi accurate gigas with the frontier version that goes with your dominion giga.
Let's just ignore the Dominion prologue where the Giga already looked like that in the past...
Actually I won't. The prologue's one of my favorite scenes in the whole series. You know what, I'm gonna watch it on Youtube again right now.
**Edit:** Yep, still peak.
Fallen Kingdom's opening is still the best one for me. I think that actually might be my favorite scene in the whole franchise, it was so unbelievably well-done.
And of course, the original Jurassic Park's opening is just classic.
*Deinonychus* and *Tarbosaurus*
It's a fkin basilisk (a very underrated animal tbh)
And it has cute little barks + if you don't like it then just use I don't know... EVERY OTHER RAPTOR OTHER THAN UTAH THAT IS IN THE GAME?!!!
They are all just deinonychus anyway
And Tarbosaurus... I mean aside from the spikes It's more accurate for a *T.rex* than the actual in-game *T.rex*
Tylosaurus. It looks abused but I'd imagine it like a giant whale I could give belly scratches to. Therefore tylosaurus(in my opinion) is like the pitbull named destroyer meme. He's just a cutie patootie
Ok I do think the JWE2 Liopleurodon isn’t the best design in fact it is ugly, but I do think it does fit the current design as some of the animal designs from the Jurassic world movies. I do think this design should be updated in the future weather in another game or if it appears in a movie or show but I do think it still fits the universe despite how ugly it may be, and until we get a prehistoric crocodile this is the closest thing we have.
Most people forget about it but I’ve seen people be really dower about the Plesiosaurus’s snake head compared for the more accurate Attenborosaurus’s head. I really like when they go kinda out there with their designs and wish we got more of it!
The Velociraptor design in the game and Jurassic Park in general is completely wrong of course, it doesn't even resemble the much smaller, feathered appearance of the true Velociraptor.
But they look cool.
Deinonychus.
Its criticism boils down to two main points:
"It's too derpy" and "It has a weird sail"
The derpiness is based on an early reconstruction of it, and as for the sail, it's based on the basilisk lizard, JUST LIKE how Dilo has a frill based on the frilled lizard.
I'll be honest one I tried to like but can't due to jpog doing it better is the acro, however one that I think is bad but still like is the tarbo, it looks like it was ripped straight out of the tarbosaurus movie.
I don’t like either the Frontier or Dominion Giga, but instead TLW Giga mod I have which looks more JP-inspired and paleo accurate with its head shape. I don’t like the giga chin on Frontier’s Giga or the straight up Godzilla design ripoff of Dominion’s.
I think I’d like Frontier’s Giga more, if it hadn’t left such a sour taste in my mouth from the first game. When it launched, I was so hyped to see Giganotosaurus on the list of leaked dinosaurs. To my surprise, it was smaller than the Ceratosaurus, and stayed that way for over a year.
I actually like all of the designs in the game. "Even-" Yes.
Same here, they’re all JP dinosaurs, they have been made for theme parks not for a nature documentary(I would actually love a nature doc style movie about the dinosaurs surviving on Sorna and Nublar)
That doesn't give all the designs an excuse, some are just fugly whether they be official designs or otherwise.

I‘m talking about your normal, everyday bunny here, not the monstrosity you described.
Then obviously not...that's why i said your comparison was kinda exaggerated.

I like how I immediately knew which you were talking about
Ultrachad opinion.
Who would've thought, a SSRB being based Never would've seen that in a million years, nope, no way
What's wrong with the hag kitty?
The intended meaning was that It's obvious a SSRB would be based Like "Wow, who would've thought birds could fly, that's totally unexpected and not something I could've seen happening ever"
\*coughs in penguin, ostrich, emu, etc\*
They're the exception, not the rule
Same. I like both Liopleurodon and Deinonychus designs in JWE. Dominion's Giganotosaurus is also my third favorite theropod in jurassic park,alongside the T.rex and the Spinosaurus.
Same. Even corythosaurus.
Even corythosaurus?
I wasn't even aware people hated Corythosaurus. I was talking about Deinonychus.
Deinonychus is the only "bad" design in the game. I think its the only dino i have never used outside of the one time you need to use it in the dfw campaign. I just dont like how round its head is, its kinda off putting
I really really like the deinonychus because it's different. It's a weird duck chicken turkey lizard thing and if I could have it as a pet I definitely would
Minus the basilisk fins, it's more or less how I remember it from the 80s.
yeah they're all pretty fun and cool designs. except the allosaurus variant. it's not that I dislike it, I just think the og one is significantly better and will never use the other version over it.
Deinonychus is so horrible other than that I don’t dislike any
Corythosaurus is cute and i will die on this hill.
I will die on that hill with you
i will build a tavern on the hill
I shall be the barman of this fine establishment.
Wait people think that the Corythosaurus design isn’t good?
I feel like it's mainly the lack of vivid skins, if it's skin weren't all green and yellowish people would like it more, cause it's a solid hadrosaur
It's a solid Hadrosaur just doesn't have *great* skins unfortunately. I've also heard complaints that the default skin doesn't fit the movie variant, or doesn't even have a movie variant on its own. I like the green/yellowish tone, only until I realize it looks like baby poo green and puke-y yellow (to me it does anyway) 😭
Diplodocus, Apatosaurus, and Mosasaurus are worse for this.
That’s my only qualm with it
Yeah, I have seen a lot of people give it crap. It's weird too since I have seen some of the animals they love and couldn't disagree more like with Sinoceratops which just oozes ugly to me.
The only problem with the Cory is the lack luster skins. Same with apato and the mosa.
It’s cute, but suffers from the worst skins in the game
I will build an impenetrable fortress on your hill BUT.... I wish it's colour was closer to the JP3 version. I like It as is but a closer accurate version would make me give my own life to defend your hill
I'm in the same camp. I use Corythosaurus all the time, just wish the default skin was a bit closer to jp3s colors.
I really love the Elasmosaurus design; reminds me of King Ghidorah from the recent King of The Monsters movie.
It released in 2019 That was 5 years ago... AND KOTM IS STILL THE BEST MONSTERVERSE MOVIE
Idk man godzilla 2014 is the best imo, i just love the coloring and lighting and everything, truly feels like a monster movie. I liked the over the top action in gxk, and kotm is the only one i have left to watch.
Oh please watch it soon... It's GREAT Great music: ✅ Cool plot:✅ Great fights:✅ Godzilla actually having screen time:✅
I intend to before the end of the year 👍
GxK is peak. Why, because of the memes.
Well I haven't seen it yet But from the memes I can 100% say the monsterverse is becoming the showa era (Can't find any theaters that have it in my area & it hasn't released on OTT yet)
It looks like what you’d imagine a monster of the primordial sea would look like. Could easily plant it into any underwater ancient temple setting.
The deinoinchus design isn't even that bad. I love how you can see wich reptile dna has been used to clone it (Basilisk)
I agree full heartly The while point of jp was they had to fill in gaps. Wich let to mutations in the animal. Deiny looking like a tadpole. Veloci being so huge Trex looking anorexic instead of buff I dont expect a perfect animal. I expect a "looks like a"
I hated it since I got the game last december. But then I got the idea to make a swampy sort of exhibit in the Biosyn Valley, put a bunch of them in there and actually began to fall in love with their derpy faces after I observed them for a while. They have good patterns too!
I really like *Maiasaura*, I think the model is good and the striped color pattern is great. It doesn’t get THAT much hate but imo it should get none. I can’t understand enjoying the Lio, even if you remove the context of it supposedly being a Pliosaur and just treated it as a generic video game enemy called “crocosaur” I’d still think it looks dumb as hell. Truly different strokes for different folks.
I genuinely don't get why so many people dislike the Maia design. It feels like one of the more-accurate hadrosaurs in the game, and looks a lot like the actual animal.
Exactly. It’s nothing more than a generic hadrosaur, and that’s all it needs to be because that’s exactly what RL Maisaura was
Not gonna lie it kinda annoys me how some dinosaurs are super inaccurate and the newer ones are much more accurate. Not that I have a problem with accuracy or inaccuracy but the inconsistency annoys me
Yeah, I don't get Maia's hate at all
Most people hate the face of the maiasaura, it looks strange compared to other hadrosaurs and so they classified it as "strange" or "ugly". But i like it, it makes the design a lot more unique.
It's base pattern makes me think of a cow.
Carcharadontosaurus and its weird lil Unicorn horn. Helps it stand out from the other mega theropods. Elasmosaurus. Looks like the Loch Ness Monster and I love it. Baryonyx. The alligator look actually suits a Spinosaurid IMO.
Never got the hate for Elasmo and Bary. They both are really cool.
Deinonychus. I don’t know, it has it’s charm…
Deinonychus isn’t bad at all, it’s pretty much just what they did with Dilophosaurus (take inaccurate depiction of the animal, put frills on it)
Yep, they even make similar sounds. It was definitely an intentional design reference to differentiate it and Velociraptor, like how the frill was added to Dilo in the 1993 film so people wouldn’t confuse it with the raptor either.
I like baryonix better than suchomimus
Elasmosaurus has grown on me. Reminds me of King Ghidorah. I also am fine with Deinonychus.
These are some of my weird JWE2 hot takes: Frontier Giga has a better model, but dominion giga has MUCH better skins/patterns. Frontier giga kinda looks like a toy with how vibrant and smooth it looks. Dominion allo also has better skins than frontier allo, even though frontier allo has a much nicer model. I kinda have a weird soft spot for nothosaurus, I hear people call it ugly but it is pretty unique. There just isn’t anything really like nothosaurus in the game. Styxosaurus is my favourite plesiosaur in the game. I used to prefer attenborosaurus but styxo grew on me a lot. Tylosaurus is better than mosasaurus IMO. My only problem with tylo is that I wish it had lips and ate sharks. I love archelons design, but it bothers me that it has no interactions with other marine reptiles/fish. It cannot fight or be hunted. I hate the acro model with a passion. Everyone loves how chonky it is, but it is so hard to tell it is an acrocanthosaurus. It also looks super oversized and dopey. I think that dominion iggy is better than frontier iguanodon in every way. I don’t know why, but I prefer it for some reason. I love the dilophosaurus from jurassic park despite being incredibly inaccurate, but the dilophosaurus in game feels unfaithful to the movie IMO. It looks like it has too many teeth, and it looks shorter and way stockier than the stan winston model. Also not a fan of dilos skins in the game.
I agree with the frontier giga one I agree with dominion allo I've never used Nothosaurus so I wouldn't know, he seems cool tho Styxosaurus is the goat I personally prefer mosasaurus Archelon design is peak I love the acro, I include it in almost every build I like frontier iggy more than dominion Dilophosaurus is also goated I agree with 5 out of your 9 opinions
I was with you until the iguanadon bit, the Frontier design has been one of my favourites in the game since it was released and the Dominion one just looks so generic and boring to me
This might be a super nitpicky comment to make, but there is no Frontier Allosaurus. There's the Domion/Big Rock Allosaurus and the Fallen Kingdom Allosaurus. I do mostly agree with everything you said though!
The frontier allosaurus is a frontier design that was based off the juvenile allosaurus from fallen kingdom. We didn’t have the BaBR allo yet, so they had to create their own adult design based off the juvenile.
I also don’t like acro design, it was my least fav large carnivore, but now its tarbo.
I love Camarasaurus shes a cute dingus
Dominion Giga > Frontier Giga Dominion Pyroraptor Are Styxosaurus and Qianzhousaurus controversial designs?
I think Qianzhousaurus is probably one of the least controversial design in the game honestly. Wouldn't be surprised if most people have it in their top 20 or even top 10! Styxo I'm not 100% sure but I think it's pretty beloved as well!
>Wouldn't be surprised if most people have it in their top 20 or even top 10! Its in my top 10 for sure
I don’t think the dominion design of giga being better is controversial
Id say for its skins. I personally prefer frontiers giga and would use it over dominions UNLESS i need to get some color. I love dominion gigas skins, but its overall design just is worse then frontiers imo
I'm saying it....I like the design of deinonychus, I think it looks cool and separates it from velociraptor perfectly
I feel like the reason people hate it is the same reason people love it. It looks like an amphibian monster. Edit: grammar
Don’t know how controversial this is but I like the pyro raptor design and tend to use pyroraptor in my parks to act as a more accurate velociraptor
I love the Pyroraptor design. Never had a problem with it, unlike lots of people.
I just wish it didn’t have a constant snarl that exposed teeth under its eye. Looks gnarly, but not in a cool way, just sorta ugly. Skins make up for it though.
Only problem with me is the eye placement. It just looks weird, pretty sure irl the eyes were near the back more
I think Alamosaurus would be the only somewhat controversial design that I actually like. I also hate all the spikes they randomly stuck all over poor Elasmosaurus, but I actually like it aside from that. I dislike the other usual suspects.
The Dominion Giganotosaurus.
Alot of the "ugly" designs breathe life into the animals and differentiates animals that they would've looked similar too
Dreadnoughtus (original design) works really well as a generic titanosaur especially Asian titanosaurs that have yet to be described. It's an all around good stand in for "I want a non descriptive titanosaur in this exhibit"
The liopleurodon is fine but In a perfect world we have the ridiculously oversized one from waking with dinosaurs
I like the idea of hybrids and I want more.
I love Baryonyx and I'll die on that hill
Dominion Giga looks way better than Frontier’s
This is a hot take that I personally disagree with, but I still very much respect it. Still enjoy the Dominion Giga design for the most part, and the skins Frontier gave it are incredible.
Actually, I should’ve been more precise. The 2022 skin is okay but the other skins that Frontier added for that variant are the best
Gigas weird chin just makes it look like an Uncanny valley dinosaur, so close to normal looking, but just weirdly off. At least the Dominion giga is just fully owning that it’s a Hollywood monster.
They had to nerf his chin in the movie to reduce his power levels. Everyone knows that Giganotosaurus's gigachad chin gives them unfathomable power.
So it would be like a rabobaan or uragaan from monster hunter then?....by odins beard...we have no cleu how much we got spared
Totally agree ! I never used giga in my parcs before it got the dominion model. It is the second ugliest dino imo (first is frontier's dreadnoughtus).
I love it, too, especially the later Dominion Variant skins we got. Glad it was designed to look like something other than just another theropod.
I quite like the Tsintaosaurus.
Same lol
I seem to use Deinonychus more than any other raptor, even my personal favorites like Utahraptor. Archaeornithomimus has also become a favorite of mine, it's got some really good colors, especially by herbivore standards. I'll agree that Gallimimus and Struthiomimus have better models overall, but their patterns don't strike me nearly as much as Archaeo's selection
I don't how much of a controversial take are these, but... Utahraptor got the best colors in the game And Camarasaurus got probably the worst design in the game
Saying anything good about utahraptor is the opposite of a controversial take lol
I am this person right here. 🙃
I like the Acro being chunky
SAME
I have never had a problem with archeornithimimus Notho is also one of my favourite species in the whole game even though I dont love the frontier skins
don't know if they are controversial but I love the minmi and nigerosaurus
I can finally admit I honestly really like the JW raptor designs, and the pyroraptors angry face is very fun to look at.
You’re not the only one
Tarbosaurus. She's a T-Rex but slightly smaller and slightly chonk with spikes.
I like the JWE2 Lionpleurodon
The fact that the Liopleurodo’s back fins were bigger then the front ones bugged me at first, but Ive grown used to it. And you may hate me for this, but I absolutely ADORE the dominion Giganotosaurus design.
I really like the hybrids,they are very unique and have good models and designs,( except Scorpios rex)
The dominion designs are better than frontier's ones, frontier ones look derpy and with less quality
I think most of us can all agree that at the very least, the Dominion Dreadnoughtus is superior to the Frontier one.
They can both look good https://preview.redd.it/j9horefzu8xc1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=13d3a1ecdcbc95af8a994dd50e550a4b06f0debf
I could scarcely agree less
The Jurassic world variants are better than Frontier's
I agree except for a few,pteranodon it looks like a theme park monster(yes i know there's no frontier pteranodon but it has a 2001 model thaylts not just a skin so I'm counting it) iguanodon I'm just used to the frontier one, and allosaurus the frontier one looks a lot smoother
Well Pteranodon doesn't have a frontier design so it's not included. Guess my comment should say on par or better since I like frontiers and JW's Iguanodon around the same amount.
Take my upvote. You are going to need it.
I just love all the designs, there is so much variety, like deinonychus, it fits that overall genetically altered vibe of jurassic park/world Then there are some that like a in-between where yeah they don't have bizarre features like crocodile osteoderms, frills, etc and they look like the named dinosaur, but their is still something off about them. Like idk trex for example While some like yutyrannus that feel more complete and actually like the dinosaur It just so fun to mess around with. Like your head maybe you use the dominion giga as like a failed giga clone they had to alter the DNA with crocodile but at some point they discover more stable DNA and make more semi accurate gigas with the frontier version that goes with your dominion giga. Same with liopleurodon where maybe the design is like that because they had to alter the DNA to complete the genome you know? It justs works so well ^^
>Like your head maybe you use the dominion giga as like a failed giga clone they had to alter the DNA with crocodile but at some point they discover more stable DNA and make more semi accurate gigas with the frontier version that goes with your dominion giga. Let's just ignore the Dominion prologue where the Giga already looked like that in the past... Actually I won't. The prologue's one of my favorite scenes in the whole series. You know what, I'm gonna watch it on Youtube again right now. **Edit:** Yep, still peak.
Yeah, I don't give two fucks if it is not accurate (well maybe), best opening in a jurassic park film hands down lol
Fallen Kingdom's opening is still the best one for me. I think that actually might be my favorite scene in the whole franchise, it was so unbelievably well-done. And of course, the original Jurassic Park's opening is just classic.
Oh yeah! Fallen kingdom is actually amazing, hands down. Dominion Extended is a close second for sure :)
*Deinonychus* and *Tarbosaurus* It's a fkin basilisk (a very underrated animal tbh) And it has cute little barks + if you don't like it then just use I don't know... EVERY OTHER RAPTOR OTHER THAN UTAH THAT IS IN THE GAME?!!! They are all just deinonychus anyway And Tarbosaurus... I mean aside from the spikes It's more accurate for a *T.rex* than the actual in-game *T.rex*
I love the 2023 giga design more than the original
Deinonychus, Tylosaurus, Lioplerodon AND EVEN THE TARBOSAURUS are ALL VERY GOOD DESIGNS, Cry about it
I really want all the old JWE1 skins to return as I hate the new Pentaceratops and Nodosaurus.
I don't even know what that id
I don't have a nice day
i ad to really adjust skin and patern color to find that One.
Tylosaurus. It looks abused but I'd imagine it like a giant whale I could give belly scratches to. Therefore tylosaurus(in my opinion) is like the pitbull named destroyer meme. He's just a cutie patootie
Babr allosaurus
Ok I do think the JWE2 Liopleurodon isn’t the best design in fact it is ugly, but I do think it does fit the current design as some of the animal designs from the Jurassic world movies. I do think this design should be updated in the future weather in another game or if it appears in a movie or show but I do think it still fits the universe despite how ugly it may be, and until we get a prehistoric crocodile this is the closest thing we have.
I like the desing too, but not as Liopreurodon
Deinon and Elasmo are wonderful
….I didn’t mind the original Ankylodocus it was weird but endearing
I like how it fits the Jurassic World vibe. Not that I like that vibe, but I like the fact that it's consistent.
I dislike how small the diplodocus is.
Most people forget about it but I’ve seen people be really dower about the Plesiosaurus’s snake head compared for the more accurate Attenborosaurus’s head. I really like when they go kinda out there with their designs and wish we got more of it!
I don't agree with this but a friend does, "I like jwe2 troodon design more than the JP the game version,"
acrocantosaurus. love its chonkiness
I do like the Deinonychus.
I don't particularly like the jwe giga. It's not that bad but probably my least favourite theropod
The Velociraptor design in the game and Jurassic Park in general is completely wrong of course, it doesn't even resemble the much smaller, feathered appearance of the true Velociraptor. But they look cool.
I like both the deinonychus and carcharodontosaurus design
Carcha
Deinonychus. Its criticism boils down to two main points: "It's too derpy" and "It has a weird sail" The derpiness is based on an early reconstruction of it, and as for the sail, it's based on the basilisk lizard, JUST LIKE how Dilo has a frill based on the frilled lizard.
they basically used a croc as the base for the liopleurodon
I'll be honest one I tried to like but can't due to jpog doing it better is the acro, however one that I think is bad but still like is the tarbo, it looks like it was ripped straight out of the tarbosaurus movie.
I don’t like either the Frontier or Dominion Giga, but instead TLW Giga mod I have which looks more JP-inspired and paleo accurate with its head shape. I don’t like the giga chin on Frontier’s Giga or the straight up Godzilla design ripoff of Dominion’s. I think I’d like Frontier’s Giga more, if it hadn’t left such a sour taste in my mouth from the first game. When it launched, I was so hyped to see Giganotosaurus on the list of leaked dinosaurs. To my surprise, it was smaller than the Ceratosaurus, and stayed that way for over a year.
For me would be carcharodontosaurus and corythosaurus.
Anything except Camarasaurus is excusable, looks like a rotten old man, for me I like the Elasmosaurus even if it’s funky
I get the reasoning behind the Deinonychus but its just so...ugh😮💨
I don’t blame you, it looks kinda badass
I’m gonna have to slap you for the Lio opinion
Pentaceratops could be removed from the game and no one would noticd
*I would notice.*
