So I was thinking of events that could happen in the game, that could hamper your park. We know that weather events are already in the game along with others. I'm guessing there are going to be more of these events in the full game. However, that doesn't stop me from throwing my hat in the ring with a suggestion. I thought that a pretty neat event that could happen is if a member of staff sabotaged your park, just like in the original Jurassic Park with Dennis, who subsequently dies to a Dilophosaurus. Your park would lose power to certain fences, buildings etc. Would love to hear thoughts on this and any ideas to expand on this are most welcome. Thanks for reading!
Dennis Nedry Event
- Thread starter kinggZANGA
- Start date
one of the developers of the game hinted that there could be a scenario were your park could be sabotaged just like the dennis nedry event
I'd personally like said person to be linked to Biosyn and/or Dodgeson in a way. Expanding that story would be pretty nice, although if they're sticking more to film lore then I don't think it'd happen
Maybe a Nick Van Owen style environmentalist character wants to set the dinos free - a DPG member/employee?

I read somewhere that Nedry will not be in the game. That doesn't mean there won't be some other disgruntled employee.
We can see on some of the gameplay videos three "Sabotage Chance : low" on the three teams' screens. I'm guessing ignoring security/science/entertainment contracts might make them want to sabotage the park.
I didn't notice that. In the game informer vid one of the developers mentioned the branches get angry if they get ignored too much. A cool feature.
Yeah I agree. If they're going to do such a character, then it has to implemented correctly. No point adding Dennis, as he died in the original Jurassic Park. However, like you said, a character resembling Dennis. Nick van Owen would fit perfectly, great suggestion.
Good spot. Interesting, indeed!
Nick van Owen was a great suggestion by a fellow user.
I would love maybe only ONE but truthful down-memory-lane Mission with the old Jurassic Park Characters..
Dennis Nedry
Ray Arnold
John Hammond
Alan Grant
Ellie Sattler
Donald Gennaro
Ian Malcom
There are so many JP fans out there, would be awesome.
Liking this idea, I'm sure Frontier have more imaginative developers/story writers but they could go something like:
1) Arnold: Resore power after a power outage without any Velociraptors escaping.
2) Sattler: Heal all sick Nublar herbivores within a timelimit.
3) Nedry: Counter an escaping corporate sabotage with a hungry Dilophosaurus
4) Malcolm: Get in the ranger vehicle and rescue Malcolm from a rampaging T-rex
5) Gennaro: Implement all security facilities to the T-Rex paddock so that Gennaro can sign off your completed park
6) Grant: Hatch all dinosaur species from the original Jurassic Park with 100% genomes
7) Hammond: Acquire photos of all dinosaur species from a single Jeep Safari tour to maximise the park's promotion to the public
Then when all of this done you get some prize like unlimited funds awarded from Hammond saying look, now you can spare no expense across all your other parks.... or some other suitable reward
This video interview with the lead writer of JWE certainly talks about something like Dennis (also about a homage to classic JP) (towards the end, but all worth a listen):

All sounding rather good.
