Most likely because it's not an inGen animal and there's no design for a fully grown one.And hopefully we will also have further clarification on why the Sino-Spino has been excluded from the DLC.
That wouldn't be a really smart move would it? Because you'd always get it and, gee, I don't know, NOT use it?Most likely because it's not an inGen animal and there's no design for a fully grown one.
I for one am glad that horrid monstrosity isn't in it. I probably wouldn't buy the DLC if it was featured in it.
That’s not really a good argument though, we have skins based on Pierce the Kentrosaurus and Big Eatie the T. rex and yet both of them were Mantah Corp assets. To further add on to this point, with the Dominion update/DLC all but officially confirmed, this game would gain prehistoric animals and designs that have not been created by InGen but instead by BioSyn and various other companies.Most likely because it's not an inGen animal and there's no design for a fully grown one.

Yeah, it's quite odd that there's no news post about the DLC. This presentation is very different from Frontier's usual pattern, and I wonder if it's one that the devs themselves even wanted...Isn't it weird there has not been an official announcement for the new DLC/update under the NEWS sections here on the forum?

It's gonna either be very good or a total disaster.Not only is it early, but there's been neither an update thread nor a DLC announcement thread made by Frontier themselves. They're also being weirdly quiet about what's being added in the upcoming update.
As I understood it, most of the assets were InGen assets that were taken from the original islands. The Spino-sino was definitely a new animal they made themselves. But all the other animals all seemed to be adults. I don't think it makes sense if those were Mantah Corp assets. They would have to have stolen those many years ago if that's the case. Especially since the T. rex and Spinosaurus were the same type of clones as the InGen assets. I think it makes more sense that they stole those from the island after the park went down.That’s not really a good argument though, we have skins based on Pierce the Kentrosaurus and Big Eatie the T. rex and yet both of them were Mantah Corp assets.

Frontier have also made their own fully grown adult model of Allosaurus more than a year before the franchise’s canonical design appeared in Battle at Big Rock. There’s nothing preventing them (that we know of) from making their own fully grown Sino-Spino.
So there’s still no reason why a canonical dinosaur from the same show as the rest of the DLC's content has been excluded for no reason.
Because in the game all assets are made by a single company right now. According to the rumours BioSyn makes an appearance in the new film. So if any BioSyn assets get added to the game, I expect there to be a story explanation for it in a campaign mission. And they will most likely want to make use of the momentum of the film to promote the game.I really don't get why BioSyn assets would be permitted, but not those by Mantah Corp.
The adult argument also doesn’t work in this case, because Bumpy grew from tiny hatchling to fully grown adult in less than 4 weeks and it was also established that Pierce the Kentrosaurus and Smilodon were created by Mantah Corp in their own labs on their own island.As I understood it, most of the assets were InGen assets that were taken from the original islands.

Not sure about the Smilodon though.
And yes, I agree that it's plausible that we'll get BioSyn animals when the film comes out. But the film hasn't come out yet.

I was hoping the fruitless desires of DLC sequels wouldn't make their way to this board...maybe for camp cretaceous dinosaur pack 2![]()
