AUSTRALIAN Dinosaurs PACK

[Jurassic Tyrant King]

We got to be fair to poor Australia because all the fascinating dinosaurs from that continent are still missing the only species that represents Australia is the MUTTABURRASAURUS and that's pretty much it although a certain dinosaur with a beautiful Crest is coming I'm not sure if this species will be in a location in Queens or Tasmania Australia Or it's original location further south, I'm kind of hoping we get even more representation of this continent just as I wanted more representation from all the other continents. But I have to say Australia must come first since this continent is still underrepresented. To my Australian colleagues who are hoping for more Australian dinosaurs to be represented this one's for you.
Frontier developers this is just my suggestion on species that you could put into the game that would make it awesome and diverse even further.


Australia Dinosaurs:

Austrolovenator: this species would definitely be an excellent choice for Frontier since we don't have species similar or like this dinosaur in Jurassic world Evolution 2 it's a unique megaraptorin in species and it is still debated whether the species was related to the tyrannosaurs or allosaurs.

Glacialisaurus: this species was believed to be the main prey of the now announced crylophosaurus it would be interesting if Frontier would also consider this sauropodomorph to come to the Game the main prey of Cryolophosaurus.

Minmi: small dinosaurs are always welcome and I think this little dinosaur and Ankylosaur or Nodosaur which is basically the size of a cat would definitely fit in with other small dinosaurs in Jurassic world Evolution 2 so Frontier consider this one as well.

Diamatinasaurus: this Titan definitely would look so good if you would put osteoderms all across its back similar to all the drawings it would be so cool because this would differentiate this sauropod from other sauropods in the game.

Leaellynasaura: this little ornithopod from the outback definitely it would be a smaller version of dryosaurus already in the game, I wouldn't mind if you put the same quills from the Velociraptor from jp3 onto this little dinosaur from its head to its tail to differentiate it from its cousin but here's the thing it's tail was already longer than its body which could make it even more different than dryosaurus before it.



Okay I'll stop posting dinosaur packs for a while in case y'all get annoyed by it, but I just wanted to do something special just for the Australians on the forum since I'm also intrigued by many of the species in this mysterious continent yet unexplored when it comes to Dinosaur paleontology.

1+ this post so Frontier Developers know we want Aussie Dinosaurs....

Yeah, Queensland has potential as a site (Theropod footprints from the Razorback beds, Siderops from the Westgrove Ironstone), Tasmania though I can only find fossil plants from the Early Jurassic (Lune River).

In terms of aerials, Aussiedraco probably has the most potential, it's still similar to the Romauldo Anhanguerids, but it does lack the keel on the underside of the jaw and is smaller than the existing at about 3m wingspan (only part of the lower jaw is known, which opens it to a lot of creativity, but pretty much every Australian Pterosaur is like that).

In terms of aquatics, Kronosaurus is the classic one and easy to do with Liopleurodon there already (although potentially difficult to make a distinct design for the common people, considering Kronosaurus is the base for most Pliosaurids). Umoonasaurus is one I've advocated for of course, with it's brow ridges and speculated nose crest.

I think it would also be nice for New Zealand to get something. There's marine reptiles from there, Kaiwhekea and Taniwhasaurus seem like they might have the most potential.

Great idea! I'm all for more animals that aren't from North America (seriously, the dig site map in the first game did not look good), and Australia in specific is very underrepresented.

I agree more Australian dinosaurs are needed to make this game feel diverse.

I’m fine with just minmi and leally, the others bring little new to the table... especially the sauropods....

Since Liopleurodon's JWE2 design has the same crocodilian armor as the Mosasaurus and spikes on its throat, Kronosaurus would look quite different from just not having those features.

I hope they release continent-specific packs like they have been doing with Planet Zoo! That said, the packs in the first game only had 3 dinosaurs each, so it would probably be: Leaellynasaura, either Minmi or Kunbarrasaurus, and Australovenator. That would be really cool though!

I'm still hoping that they go the way of having five animals in each pack: three land, one air and one marine. Not at all unreasonable, and would give a good variety per pack. It's also closer to what Planet Zoo is doing (which came out after JWE), so I'm hoping the develpers here take a bit of inspiration from that.

And speaking of PZ DLC packs, I think there also might be a possibility that JWE2 packs may also add some decorations. Not to PZ's extent, of course, but maybe some building addons and placeable decor fitting the theme.


Then again, this is just a theory/hope, so it's defintiely a possibility they go back to JWE's DLC pattern.

I mean the animals in Planet Zoo don't really interact with other species in a predator/prey sort of way. They just disappear into a cloud and one of them dies. At least that's the way it was the last time I played the game. Here, each dinosaur has to have a specific animation for the way it fights the other dinosaurs. It also seems like each dinosaur is going to have unique social interactions with other members of its species. So I thought it would make sense that there would be fewer species per pack.

Then again, it would make sense to have 3 dinosaurs, 1 pterosaur, and 1 marine reptile per pack. If they do this, there would probably be fewer DLCs, so a DLC for each continent would probably be unlikely at that point.

But, for the big animals, twice as many animals need to be fully animated. Remember that juveniles are a thing in PZ. Not sure which creates the bigger workload, though.

Yes Australian sauropods very interesting creatures to sauropods
