All JWE2 species in base game for JWE3

[VSSEMike]

I Still Hope that Plateosaurus could come in one of the last DLC´s for JWE II in 2024.
After 2024 The whole team of Frontier will for shure only work on JWE III to have it ready in July 2025 to get a nice synergy effect from "JP7" in the Sales !

@Dinotracker It is a question whether the upcoming DLC be the last for Jurassic World: Evolution 2 or not.

Not too long ago, Frontier had signed an agreement with Universal in making Jurassic World: Evolution 3.

I honestly think that the roster should be decreased to like 70-80 species in JWE3. That number is more than enough imo. With 120+ (!) species the roster is simply too bloated right now to make any significant, highly required improvements to animal AI, behaviours and general animation quality. For this reason alone I highly doubt that breeding and ontogeny will get added for instance, since there are simply way too many species.
Nobody really needs generic hadrosaur clone # 5 and theropod clone # 10.

So I sincerely hope that at least highly redundant species (like for example Dracorex, Archaeornithomimus, Chungkingosaurus etc.) get cut permanently and Frontier focuses more on quality than quanitity.

I agree with you regarding the improvements to the AI and behaviors which are absolutely essential to the game and which should have been done a long time ago. However, regarding the fact of removing species under the pretext that they are "redundant" (even if that would be true) I do not agree! All species introduced into the game must be preserved! It's a question of respect for the players. And then whether we like the species or not is a question of taste. Personally I like the Chungkingosaurus and the Dracorex, and I would be very unhappy if they were removed in the next game. Just like I will be unhappy if a species that I don't like is also removed, because maybe other people would like this species that I don't like.

I agree we should have at least most (I would prefer all) of the species from JWE2 available in JWE3 at launch.

I also agree the game (JWE3) absolutely needs to have better behavior interactions. Especially in the area of Carnivore - Herbivore fights. No more weak sauropods. All sauropods should at least have the ability to make threat displays, with the large sauropods being capable of even injuring the Mega theropods. Hadrosaurids should at least be ability to fight off the small-medium predators. Basically, if herbivores have natural weapons such as horns, tail cubs, tail spikes, or very long tails then they should use them in self-defense against predators. Big herbivores should also use their bulk to their advantage as well (i.e. mock charging a theropod).

As for baby/juvenile dinosaurs - while I highly doubt that we will see breeding dinosaurs in JWE3. How about make juvenile variants of the dinosaurs (i.e. individuals that are about 25-50% the size of the adults) - so that we may at least be able to create the illusion of baby/juveniles.

 

[TheMightyMegalosaurus]

Are they part of the Movie Universe?

There's a lot of animals in the game that aren't in the franchise.

 

[Dinoken]

Well - if we are just talking the Jurassic Park/Jurassic World trilogies there is about 38 species which appeared on screen - all of which are now in the game. But if you include skeletons in the movies, species from the novels and species in the 5 seasons of Camp Cretaceous - you could add another 20-22 species. So that is only about half of what is currently in JWE2.

 

[gianfranco cembran]

New mecanical and comportament of dinosaurs, reptiles aquatic and flyning reptiles, example great sauropods combat or intimidate predators and protect olter herbivores.

 

[gianfranco cembran]

Sono d'accordo con te per quanto riguarda i miglioramenti all'intelligenza artificiale e ai comportamenti che sono assolutamente essenziali per il gioco e che avrebbero dovuto essere apportati molto tempo fa. Tuttavia, per quanto riguarda l'eliminazione delle specie con il pretesto che sono "ridondanti" (anche se sarebbe vero) non sono d'accordo! Tutte le specie introdotte nel gioco devono essere preservate! E' una questione di rispetto per i giocatori. E poi se la specie ci piace o no è una questione di gusti. Personalmente mi piacciono il Chungkingosaurus e il Dracorex, e sarei molto infelice se venissero rimossi nel prossimo gioco. Così come mi dispiacerebbe se venisse eliminata anche una specie che non mi piace, perché forse questa specie che non piace a me potrebbe piacere ad altri.

Preserved ibrids Indominus and Scorpius rex other Indoraptor and elimine other ibrids

 

[TheMightyMegalosaurus]

Preserved ibrids Indominus and Scorpius rex other Indoraptor and elimine other ibrids

No, the other hybrids can stay.

 

[Dinotracker]

There should be ONE bioluminescent Pattern Colour for every Species !!!
This would us give much more options for Nighttime-Parks !
The most sad thing about the " Megalodon-DLC" is , that Frontier missed the opportunity to give Parkbuilders at least a single one Pterosaur with bioluminescent Pattern Colour !

 

[bhoefert]

I think it depends whether baby dinosaurs are coming to JWE3. If they do add baby dinosaurs, I think it will be like Planet Zoo where you have a baby model and then an adult model and the baby just kind of POOF turns into an adult. That being said, it would require making baby models for the 100+ species in the game. That seems like alot.

I don't see any way that they don't add baby dinosaurs at this point. It's been one of the most requested, if not THE most requested feature for JWE1 and JWE2. Baby dinosaurs are part of the canon and a major plot point of multiple movies. If they're adding baby dinosaurs, then I could see not every JWE2 species being in JWE3 at launch. Maybe it will be just the movie and Camp Cretaceous species to start with.

 

[JurassicMan1984]

Will there be any Dinos left for them to sell as DLC if they do that?

More than enough. Still constant wishes from the community for new species. and regarding the permian age or the cenozoic period, we have enough focus on interesting animals to take a long and deep dive into a new game.

Well then, no considerable AI and behaviour improvements for you and the community. Also forget about breeding and ontogeny.
That's not happening with 120+ species.

At the end it comes down to this question: quality or quantity. Choose one.

Unfortunately a big part of this community is not smart enough to choose quality.

 

[gianfranco cembran]

Mini habitat for small creature similar of Zoo Tycoon, this attration is veri adact for amphibie, birds or flyng reptiles or insects very small for the classic paddocks. Notosaurs in mini aquatic habitat.

 

[Fossa]

No. This spoiled fan behavior will ruin evolution 3!, it is insane to ask for 200+ species in the main game, then they won’t improve on graphics and you just buy evolution 2.5.

They should cut hybrids, useless clones like gigantospinosaurus, tsintasaurus and albertosaurus (and lots of others) and focus on important species in general, they can always add the clone creatures as free skins later.

For stegosaurs for example they should have a gentle giant (Stegosaurus), an aggressive small species (kentro) and a beautiful exotic species (wuer) and that is enough really, especially for the base game.

This really is a very great answer, bravo!!!!!!

 

[Fossa]

Ultimately this would be the best END roster possible for the game, all these creatures are very different from each other, no clones and they cover the different era's pretty well! (the only clone is Lambeosaurus, but whatever, it is a cool dinosaur anyway)

I'm not sure about Edmontosaurus + Shantungosaurus, but if I have to choose, then it's bye bye boring Edmontosaurus, I only kept it in the list because it is an Jurassic Park/World original, but Shantungosaurus is much more impressive, needed, cool, awesome, bigger, stronger, everything.

Sorry for all the creatures I cut, but they are just not my thing and just would use up precious time that needs to be put into newer species.

Ok here a list of creatures I cut, the BURN list are creatures I want to burn to the ground if they ever return, so bad. (Some of the NO creatures could be clone-skins for more popular/needed/special creatures I use above in my lists.

[VSSEMike]

If the total number of species will be up to or over 200, there should be bigger maps in Jurassic World: Evolution 3 to accommodate them.

None of the square maps in Jurassic World: Evolution 2 are viable to make the "ultimate Jurassic World".

Disagree. Any species that is cut from JWE2 would be resold in DLC undoubtedly in JWE3. Content from JWE2 should be within the base game for JWE3, (decoration, species, film skins, and building sets.) The problem with cutting any species is people have favorites and would be a downside if any species were cut and resold in later DLC. The community has been vocal about not cutting species and I doubt Frontier would repeat their mistakes for JWE3. You can still have "clone species." Frontier just needs to expand on diets and certain behaviors. For example, everything single species in JWE2 has an unique social animation (expect Pterosaurs) in JWE2.Just update the diets. I would rather Frontier to use its resources to rework the JWE1 species like they did for Ankylodocus, i.e. new models, textures, and giving some animals feathers. Not everything single animal has to have an unique walking or running animation.

 

[Skawt]

I'd have to see what the game would look like, before I form an opinion off whether or not there should be any species cut.

If it's entirely rebuilt from the ground up - then sure, cuts would be appropriate. If it's JWE with yet another coat of paint and a few trinkets, then they should all be present. The work and accomplishments in the series over the past few years shouldn't go to waste.

One of my gaming pet peeves is when game developers have assets on hand and some silly suit and tie decision prevents it from being used.

I'll say this though, the roster is exceptional as it is. The series has reached the point where adding new species can barely be considered content. Though this is case by case. A prime example is the Giga, JWE pretty much had to bring the movie version to the game. Imagine the uproar if they didn't.

No it isn't.
If the graphics DRASTICALLY change from 2 to 3, you have no right to ask for ALL 120+ species of dinosaurs in this game, if they have very different work with the models, and the models add babies, new animations and such, it is unrealistic to ask for 122+ dinosaurs in the main gain of part 3, in that way it will be just the same graphics like from 1 to 2, which changed very little in gameplay and graphics, I hope they break free from that prison.

If they just change the graphics a little bit they should not create JWE3, they should just spawn endless expansions for JWE2.

Some dinosaurs are just useless, they should be cut for all time.

But if you want to give 80+ euro's for a small updated JWE2, be my guest, I hope they change the dices and give us something new and more beautiful, with less dinos's but more quality and fun.
