I love everything new added. Really great work on it. Can't wait to tinker around with the new decorations for use in my parks, especially the mural, and skeletons. I've been wanting new decorations for a while now, and this really satisfies the need. So glad to have a Jurassic Park gate that can go over paths finally too, lol.

A couple of suggests for next patch perhaps?:
-The new gate available for tours as well.
-Benches and trash cans (like seen on the JW style guest entrance).
-Lagoon Light 3 available on land as well (reminded of this after watching Evolution Square's video on the update).
 
Wish the T-rex skelly didn't look like she's walking with straight legs. that left leg needs to be bent at the knee before I use it anywhere. Can't believe anyone designed that and didn't see the comedy value. Doesn't look natural at all. For a 30th anniversary update I would have expected more to be honest. Not ungrateful but for the money and time I've put into the game...

What I'd really like on the next update is:

1. Different sized aviaries. Small, medium, large.
2. The ability to stack aviaries so the roof section of multiple aviaries isn't flat.
2b). Hanging perches / cliff faces with ridges / perch-able trees for flying variants (no leaves, dry wood).
3. Waterfall decoration.
4. Walkway / path bridge so one path can go over another.
5. Gyrosphere and tour tunnels. An entry point that goes under ground and exits at another point.
6. Underground transport so I don't have to use monorail.
7. smaller radius for texture and environment brush.
8. (Large) Coral rock formations for lagoon.
9. Ability to gradient lagoon floor to allow for shallow areas.
10. Lagoon viewing pod accessible by hyperlink.
11. Lagoon wave machine / current option for realism.
12. Baby dinosaurs.
13. Paternal / group social behaviour towards baby dinosaurs.
14. Nest building and egg laying behaviour based on comfort levels.
15. Baby dinosaur grows over life expectancy / duration.
16. Baby dinosaur reaches maturity notification after set time in life span (life spans are too short by the way - need to be much longer).
17. Dinosaur behaviour: group sleeping similar to pride of lions for instance.
18. Steeper / vertical landscaping.
19. Escalator for guests on steep inclines.
20. My biggest pet hate is that dinosaurs can still walk through each other because they are not coded as physical objects.

... I could go on.

edit: Live shark feeder. Underwater hunt!

I have to say I am very impressed with Frontier Developers I am absolutely astonished how much they have done with these decorations and other bits that make this game feel more diverse this is a very good step in the right direction of this game and I hope you all continue to support this game for at least a year more. Cuz I feel like this game still has a lot more potential of being the best Jurassic Park game ever made. I wouldn't mind a bioluminescent pack skins for dinosaurs that are fan favorites in the game. As well as Camp Cretaceous decorations from Camp Cretaceous hidden Adventure as well as throughout the series I wouldn't mind if this was an update to the Camp Cretaceous DLC to add more content there. But most of all well done Frontier well done.😁👍
 
I wish to commend the work done by Frontier. The visuals of this game becomes better with every update. The combination of more diverse species of dinosaur models, the embracing of more paleo accurate portrayals of species, and things like spectacular decorations for this update make the game even greater and increase its longevity. A combination of introducing new species, attractions, maybe maps, and more decorations in the future would make this game stand out even more.

what is with all the other buggs?

Very special and most annoying is the bug where the dinosaurs slip out of their enclosures. You didn't get it fixed in the last 2 months?
 
Is it possible to use the grass texture on gyrosphere track? It bugs me how visible it is. It can be covered by snow and sand but not grass for some reason? It also bugs me that fencing has a boarder of dirt texture that can not be concealed. Would that be an easy fix?
 
I found a "bug" - when you move a dinosaur to an enclosure, the compatibility marker flare up even if it's the same species.
Example: I was moving kentro from outside to an existing enclosure, and they were flagged as "dislike" for the other kentro! Is this intentional or an oversight? Because they got along just fine.
