An option for feathers ?...

We know there are going to be cosmetic changes with the genome modification and I am personally hoping for one of these options to be a feathered option, even if it's just proto-feathers. Sure the JP aesthetics may be licensed but they must be past that hurdle if they have included cosmetic modification (let's call them skins). I'm hoping for the raptors specifically to have skins that make them look like both the JP1 raptors, and the JP3 raptors (both the feathered and featherless ones) because I thought they looked great in that movie. I am not holding out TOO much hope for it and while I won't mind too much if it's not there, it'll be VERY cool if there's a (hard to unlock) skin for each dinosaur that gives them feathers by filling in their gene sequence gaps with bird DNA.

A big part of the community don't want feathers for a strange reason that I don't understand yet, so devs don't add feathers because of this part of the community, sorry :(

Wrong. We dont want feathers because that is a part of the lore behind Jurassic Park. If thats not understandable to you, then i dont understand how you can be for feathers. So they have to adhere to the books and the franchise. And Universal. We' as fans, have extremely little to do with the devs decisions. But the reasons are right out there in the open.

At the same time i'd like some feathered dinosaurs in the future. But i am absolutely not gonna start a political campaign for it like some other people do. But im very happy even without feathers.

"Im cancelling my preorder" level of "offended" going on with these rants. Right up there with mosasaur requests and flying reptiles.

You don't understand the fact that this is a game based off the Jurassic Park franchise? None of those dinosaurs had feathers so why would they change the lore of a nearly 30 year old franchise?
 
When the paying kids say: "What?! No feathers? *starts crying* I never wanna buy anything from JP franchise ever again!"

Then it all changes in favor of feathers. A new JP lore movie with feathers perhaps. It is all about money.
 
It has 0 to do with how they look or if it's a fact or not. JP lore has no feathers.

I get that. I simply just stated i dont like Dinosaurs with feather. Thank God they dicided not to change anything, even in the movies. They looks terrible with feathers.

With feathers they look more like Dragons. Hard to spot when in darkgreen colors and full feathered crests. Without feathers, they look like plucked chicken you find on the counter of a meat store.

If you mean big bird-looking dragons, then yeah sure. Just my opinion mate. Don't want a bunch of scary looking birds running around my park.

You do know that most dinosaurs didn't have feathers. The ones that did we know very little about how they were spread out, how thick etc.

There was plenty of all possible shapes and form, not only bird feathers, but hair-feathers, dragonscale hard "feathers", soft plates, hard plates, all colors of scales, all colors of all type feathers and even some occasional mammal hair types ( on the mammal related ones ).

But it is soooo coool!!

Jesus you are so wrong. There will be no feathers in the game cause there are no feathers in JP lore.

Can some mod please lock this so they can't keep bumping it to the top?

Not a single mammal is related to dinosaurs!

I also want to ask to lock this thread, it's a pointless debate.
JP lore was never about feathers and if people can't accept that, it's their problem.
And yes I'm fully aware that some dinosaurs did have feathers!
 
Christ on a bike dude, you guys are behaving like this is some huge ultimatum that will decide the fate of Frontier games and the Jurassic Park franchise. There is no vote. Frontier chose to not have feathered dinosaurs. There is a canonical explanation for why we don't see feathered dinosaurs in the franchise. This is the reality of things. They haven't in the past, and for the foreseeable future there will not be feathered dinosaurs as we know them.

I also support locking this thread as well. If being blunt won't even drive the point home, then this conversation needs to just stop.
 
Too little too late. We are voting for feathers now anyway. Money or no money, JP have to choose.

There is no vote. There will be no feathers in the game, ever. It doesn't matter if we want it or not. It's not part of JP lore and that's what makes the decisions. Frontier is following the franchise lore. The handful of people screaming for feathers isn't going to hurt Frontier if you don't buy the game cause millions of other people will buy it and enjoy it.

You have no say in the matter. Feathered Dinosaurs will never be in this game.

Yeah it's ridiculous. The mods need to lock this thread and lock all threads about feathers in the future.
