why there is no Free Update list it on this Game?
And what bug fixes is that?
While bug fixes are always welcome, what are them? We understand that the layoffs had an effect in this Update.
? With actual gameplay changes and new content. Stop defending this greedy and lazy company
Some YouTubers have received early access to the Secret Species pack and there’s some good news and bad news about the DLC:
Good News
Good News
- Spinoceratops is omnivorous.
- Spinoraptor has a brand new human killing animation.
- The skins and patterns on these animals look great.
- Ankylodocus has no defence animations against carnivores, once again it’s bafflingly a hybrid in name only.
- Stegoceratops does not use its thagomizer in either interactions with its fellow species or defending itself against carnivores, sadly it’s now also a hybrid in name only.
Complete garbage. You guys dropped the ball this time around. Garbage DLC with 3 assets that should have been included at launch, completely ignoring new assets people have been asking for (animals, decorations and attractions), and the only thing you can say about the free update is it is for bug fixes? I hope you enjoy losing money because from the sounds of it, a good portion of the community is opting not to buy this sad, pathetic excuse of a pack.

After this pack and small update drops tomorrow, do you guys still have future plans for content and dlcs for JWE2?
The Indominus Lux looks great, really!
Ah damn. I was really hoping for an update feature that would introduce enrichment items, shelters or baby models for the dinosaurs. I really want to love this game but I’ve only played 10 hours since it launched (contrast that to over 750 hours of Planet Zoo). I can only play it for 10 minutes at a time before I get bored - the dinosaurs don’t do anything; they just walk around and sleep. They feel like soulless animatronics, just mindlessly ambling about in different colour patterns.
I hope future updates bring some life to the dinosaurs. No matter how many new (or resold) models are released, they’re all the same robot animals in different shapes to me. I stopped buying DLC packs for JWE2 after the first 6, when I realised nothing ever felt different or new. This pack is more of the same.

I share the same sentiments as the paleontologists in the video.
It is what it is, haters gonna hate, whatever... but i'm all for diversity in opinion, so it's all fine
However, the opening was really cringey when people started to claim they feel eviscerated by the launch of this PDLC
Amelia was generally quite on point and quite down to earth* and she didnt hate on things just to make a point out of hating things** , as in Amelia saying "it makes sense, if you do a hybrid, you want it to be recognizable" as opposed to "it looks stupid to me" blurted by one of the guys
*(as in NOT going for i'm a phd in paleo and this fiction movie/universe is stupid - duh! it's fiction, not a doctoral paper! not to mention that no dyno in JW is paleo-accurate since they had to fill the gaps in the original dna with dna from living animals like frogs and whatnot)
**(for most part, as she did had her "looks stupid" moment on the last dyno)
Anyways, case in point, one may or may not like the hybrids, you dont have to be a nerd with a phd in paleo to like or to not like something - but IMO:
- the bio-luminescent ones are designed for a certain purpose (either show off or scare crow or both) more than anything else - and IMO they fulfill that goal.
- the hybrids have to be recognizable - so instead of getting "what's this? it looks stupid", you'd get "oh! this looks like a cross between a stegosaur and a triceratops!!!"
Dont get me wrong, i get my own "this looks stupid" moments, but at least im not trashing someone else's work from a position of influence like "i got a phd in paleo", especially when it's a work of fiction
For example, my first reaction when i've seen the spoiler on the Type-10 Defender (a ship in Elite Dangerous) was: this looks stupid, a spoiler on a space ship that possibly has worse aerodynamics than a brick?
My second reaction was
and so i came to terms with it

Yeah, I bowed out of that video really quick when all of them opened with "I feel personally attacked and violated by this DLC". The entire Jurassic franchise is founded on the fact all of the animals we see onscreen are genetic milkshakes in the shapes of inaccurate dinosaurs, and the franchise has done the hybrid thing before in the Chaos Effect toyline back in the 1990s which, while it didn't sell all that well, didn't generate any cries of rage and pain. They were also perfectly fine with the Indominus rex and Indoraptor, which makes their whining all the more hilarious. It feels like they got so spoiled with the non-canon animals which are usually very accurate to real life that they need to overreact to the franchise animals and anything that follows the franchise formula. All of the dinosaurs in canon are hybrids, these ones are simply more apparent about it. It's like throwing a fit at the Godzilla franchise over the more esoteric kaiju like Gigan, Hedorah, and Dogorah because they're not "grounded and realistic" like Titanosaurus, Gorosaurus, Anguirus, or Godzilla himself.It is what it is, haters gonna hate, whatever... but i'm all for diversity in opinion, so it's all fine

It’s hyperbole. That’s all it is. Expressing something, opinions included, in a more exaggerated manner but not meant to be taken too seriously. Hyperbole is harder to fully understand too.

They were looking, talking, and acting very serious for something not meant to be taken seriously.
That’s how it works. Often it’s without intention, but out of irrationality, and its not limited to negative topics. And with “seriously”, I meant to say “literally”.
Looking back, part of it is also what I like to call “anti-misinformation thinking”. Nothing wrong with that in and of itself, but I do think it was used wrongly here, especially when I have found no proof of people not rescuing car flip accident victims because of fear from what they saw in movies, beyond just concerning thoughts from others’ articles with no backing sources or examples.
