Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis - Dino Pack

Okay so i dont know if this qualifies as a group, i think not due to the fact it's bundled as a pack, but here we go.

As I said before, I've noticed that there are exactly 6 dinos featured in JPOG which are not featured in Evolution. Many, if not all of these hold some significance to players and we would love to see them back. I don't really care about why they were left out, i understand the need for concessions, time restraints or wanting to leave room for future content, it's all good, I'd happily even pay for these fellas so long as it's nothing ridiculous.

These bois are as follows:
Dryosaurus - A small herbivore also featured in Walking With Dinosaurs, that was usually the very first dino you would get in JPOG, making it's significance obvious. It was also one of the most common prey dinos. about the size of a pachy but obviously a different appearance.
latest

Homalocephale - Another, even smaller herbivore which was ultra adorable and as the smallest dino in the game, had, inversely, a fair amount of significance.
latest

Ouranosaurus - As one of the most striking hadrosaurae, with its distinctive orange, black and grayish coloration, along with the beautiful sail along it's back, this was a very cool dino to put in with carchara or spinosaurus, as they were also native to the same region those come from and in the case of the spino, kindof completed the exhibit with the whole "sail" thing going on.
latest

latest

Albertosaurus - This roughly ceratosaurus-sized predator was a smaller relative of the T-Rex, with a fairly distinctive look, that should also placate many people wanting to diversify the medium carnos with tyranosaurids, as i see many otherwise very... similiar looking dinos being suggested, which confuses me a bit.

Acrocanthosaurus - This fella was usually the very first large carnivore you could get in the game, making it a milestone of achievement, as well as genuinely being a rather unique and interesting theropod that would add to the variety of the existing ones.

Carcharadontosaurus - And finally we get to the scary boi himself, a big fan favourite as one of the largest and scariest dinos in the game. The significanceo f this one should also be evident, and while it shares some similiarities with the Giga, i think there is enough to set it apart.

That last one is courtesy of Steamblust on your reddit forums, who makes absolutely fantastic photobashes of your dinos to create new ones, highly suggest looking into his work. Although obviously this particular picture uses the giga and is therefore very wrong when ti comes to proportions and anatomy, but gets the coloration of JPOG right. Though you dont need to use the same colours as that game did, if that's an issue, obviously

Please remember to rate how much you like these ideas as the forum rules suggest, it is an important tool for the devs to know what the community wants and how much! Thank you!

Seeing the support that this suggestion has, it is inevitable that Frontier will make it happen. I've been speculating how you can add these 6 dinosaurs in Campaign Mode:

Matanceros: Dryosaurus (Reputation with Security). Morrison Formation. Size: A little smaller than the Struthiomimus.

Muerta: Albertosaurus (Reputation with Science). Dinosaur Park and Horseshoe Canyon formations. Size: Exactly the same as Ceratosaurus but with more attack to have a more powerful bite.

Tacaño: Acrocanthosaurus. (Reputation with Science). Peay Sandstone Formation (Not the correct one but I do not want to add more dig sites and there's only Nodosaurus there). Size: Between Suchomimus and T-Rex, smaller than Spino and Giga.

Pena: Homalocephale (Reputation with Entertaiment): I do not know the excavation site of this dino. Size: A little smaller than the Dryosaurus.
High social requirement

Sorna: Ouranosaurus (unlocks with 5 expedition centers like Spinosaurus). Chenini and Baharija formations. Size: Approximately the size of Corythosaurus.
Carcharodontosaurus (Entertaiment Reputation). Chenini and Baharija formations. Size: Approximately same size as T-Rex but smaller than Giga.

Sounds good, although i would say that the dryo is more akin to the pachy in size, which is fairly smaller than the current sizes of the ornithomimids. This would then make the Homalocephale a bit smaller than the pachy too.

True, you are right. I really hope that Frontier takes out this pack, people acclaim it as seen in the voting. We need a couple more carnivores in North America and Albertosaurus and Acrocanthosaurus are ideal.

Just wanted a note a few things:
Homalocephale apparently comes from the Nemegt Formation... at least, that's what the only source I could find said.
Acrocanthosaurus is known from the Cloverly Formation and Cedar Mountain formation (where Deinonychus is found) and not the Peay Sandstone Formation.
Ouranosaurus is from the Elhraz Formation, which the Tegama Bed (where Suchomimus is found) is part of and not the Chenini Formation.

As for the suggestion of DLC based on the absent JPOG animals... *shrugs* I certainly can't complain about more dinosaurs...
 
good work on the dig site accuracy. And well, i think it's something that would add a bit of much needed variety, as well as complete the roster for fans of JPOG, which currently feels incomplete.
 
I like the JPOG DLC idea with JPOG theme buildings.

I also think it would be a good idea for one of the next dlc to focus on dinosaurs outside of USA since the current majority are from US dig sites.
 
I'm a huge fan of the Operation geneisis game and of the evolution game and if I could take any of the dinosaurus from that and put them into this. it would be

Acrocanthosaurus - Personal favourite
and
Carcharodontosaurus - Well known and deadly carnivore

Also need more sound effects in all our dinosaurs like they did in OG
 
Having a Dino operation Genesis pack would be awesome and also Acrocanthosaurus is one of my favorites if such a pack where to exist hopefully frontier they'll acknowledge this idea for a DLC pack.
 
I would really love these additions. Dryosaurus particularly since there are no small herbivore dinos from the Jurassic era yet and would be a great addition to morrison themed enclosures.
 
As an addendum to this request, that seems useless to suggest otherwise, I certainly hope Frontier will take inspiration from the Operation Genesis textures and designs, rather than simply crossing their names off a list. I think most of us can understand some change, but part of why these species are so requested is their previous designs were mostly pretty memorable.

It'd even be nice, imo, to see the Allosaurus and Edmontosaurus designs from JPOG - both cool in their own right but superceded by higher canon - reused as new, related dinosaur species.
 
Please Frontier, in the same way you did with the day / night cycle, pack behavior and sleep that were very requested make us this pack for the future. 19 votes and 5 average stars. It would be the DLC with the most pleasure to pay. We need these 6 dinosaurs. Albertosaurus so that T-Rex does not feel alone.

Don’t know how to rate this forum but I’m behind this idea 100%! Would love for this to happen and believe it will eventually become a DLC. Throw in balloon ride and possible Jeep safari tour that can go through the fences.

$15 is fine for me considering games like MADDEN rip off the crap out of you with all the stuff you have to buy to get full game experience.
 
I think all of these suggestions would make nice additions to the game.

Especially Albertosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus and Acrocanthosaurus are relatively easy to implement as they are so similar to the existing T. rex and Giganotosaurus already in the game.

F
Since the Secrets of Dr. Wu came with a new building, bringing back a Jurassic World styled Viewing Dome should come with this JPOG Dino DLC as a nod to the JPOG version and also to get a better view at the smaller dinosaurs (Troodon, Dryosaurus, and Homalocephale) which can be difficult to see from the Gallery and Towers, and most importantly to get up close with the carnivores and larger dinosaurs.
 
Agreement

I totally agree with this. Loved these dinosaurs when I played JPOG and I hope they add them in the future.
