Borealpelta

Being one of the most complete dinosaur discoveries, I would love to see Borealpelta in the game. Not even was most of the body preserved, but the color pigment of the skin.

In the game database, they reference this find under the Nodosaurus profile. I think they're treating Borealopelta as a Nodosaurus.

Borealopelta is a nodosaurid ankylosaur.

Nodosaurus isn't know from very good material. The JWE Nodosaurus seems to be mostly based on the much better known Borealopelta. Adding actual Borealopelta would just add another nodosaurid that looks literally the same but with a different name.

I really don't get why people keep suggesting dinosaurs that are basically already in the game already. In the game, Nodosaurus is based on Borealopelta. Brachiosaurus is literally just Giraffatitan. Albertosaurus seems mostly based on Gorgosaurus. Yet people still keep suggesting these. Why?

Simply because the dinosaurs already in the game that are based to the ones IRL is not the name of the exact dinosaur they want.

But just a name change. The animal is already in the game.
