Dinosaur Roster

[hiplobonoxa]

we know that there will be at least twenty-six dinosaurs in the game, but trying to figure out which ones have been left off the website is almost as tough as trying to figure out which ones we don’t know anything about. at the moment, there doesn’t seem to be any hard and fast rule at work. the website could reveal all or some of the deluxe dinosaurs or all or some of the jw:fk dinosaurs — we just don’t know.

some of my guesses on the gaps:
•between apatosaurus and brachiosaurus (gap of one) could go archaeornithomimus or baryonyx.
•between brachiosaurus and ceratosaurus (gap of one) could go carnotaurus or camarasaurus.
•between chasmosaurus and edmontosaurus (gap of three) could go crichtonsaurus, dilophosaurus, or deinonychus or something unexpected like diplodocus, dryosaurus, or edmontonia.
•between gallimimus and metriacanthosaurus (gap of two) could go kentrosaurus, maiasaura, or majungasaurus. (i’m operating on a terrible theory that what we think is a kentrosaurus might actually be a tuojiangosaurus.)
•between metriacanthosaurus and pachycephalosaurus (gap of one) could go something unexpected like microceratus, monolophosaurus, muttaburrasaurus (to keep the long-name streak alive), minmi, nodosaurus, orodromeus, ornitholestes, or othnielia.
•between parasaurolophus and stegosaurus (gap of one) could go sinoceratops or spinosaurus.
•between stegosaurus and triceratops (two gaps) could go struthiomimus, suchomimus, or styracosaurus, but at least one is left out.
•between triceratops and velociraptor (gap of two) could go tyrannosaurus and something unexpected like tsintaosaurus, tuojiangosaurus, or utahraptor.

there’s no room for allosaurus, stygimoloch, or pachyrhinosaurus in the hexagons, but that does not eliminate them from being in the game.

If the 5 deluxe edition dinos are included in these gaps (and i don't think that they are but lets not rule them out)
Plus a few guesses.

•between apatosaurus and brachiosaurus (gap of one) Archaeornithomimus , Baryonyx
•between brachiosaurus and ceratosaurus (gap of one)
•between chasmosaurus and edmontosaurus (gap of three) Crichtonsaurus , Dilophosaurus, Compsognathus,Corythosaurus
•between gallimimus and metriacanthosaurus (gap of two) Majungasaurus,mamenchisaurus
•between metriacanthosaurus and pachycephalosaurus (gap of one) Microceratus
•between parasaurolophus and stegosaurus (gap of one) Spinosaurus
•between stegosaurus and triceratops (two gaps) Styracosaurus, Suchomimus, Struthiomimus (seen in IGN's 30m gameplay)
•between triceratops and velociraptor (gap of two) Tyrannosaurus

edit: plus a few honorable mentions ruled out due to unlikely nature of flying/swimming dinosaurs: Mosasaur, Pteranodon, Dimorphodon

I do not expect to see the deluxe edition dinosaurs in the squares. My guess is that there is 38 dinos, 2 hybrids and the 5 deluxe editions. That is right on par with what is speculated.

At first I was doubting if baryonyx could make it since there’s archeornithomimius. But soon I realized there’re only two gaps between stego and the trike, just like you said between sucho, struthy and styracosaurus one is missing out from the chart. It got me thinking that those deluxe edition Dinos will not have a species profile, hence frontier are just making species profile for those that are included in the basic edition. In this case the gaps between stego and the trike would make sense, and baryonyx could make it( forgive me I’m actually really excited and expecting baryonyx being in the game[big grin])
In a nutshell my stupid theory is I think those deluxe edition dinosaurs are not gonna have a species profile, so they’re not going to be in the chart:x

 

[hiplobonoxa]

there’s no reason why the deluxe or jw:fk dinos have to be all or none.
