Prehistoric Apex-Hunters Species Pack

As much as I like the Cretaceous Predators pack it's just yet another cretaceous-based pack. I think that maybe perhaps more diversity of species throughout the different eras of the Mesozoic and before the Mesozoic would be more interesting so here in this suggestion is basically the apex predators from different time eras in one pack.

Species choices for this pack:

1. TYRANNOTITAN- personally I would have preferred this species over Tarbosaurus in the previous pack but I'm hoping that another Cretaceous Large Carnivore comes to the game I hope it's this species of sharktooth lizards anyway pretty much rivaling the T-Rex in size at 42.ft-43.ft in Length. Anyway I would definitely like this species to come to the game and maybe Frontier will make a near-close Paleo accurate version like it's relative Concavenator.

2. YANGCHANOSAURUS- even though we have carnivores from Asia we still need carnivores that are from the Jurassic period. So this species would definitely fill in a niche for Jurassic Era carnivores since we're still lacking many of them and many Jurassic species. Plus this species is the only species that actually would look unique if added to the park and it is a close relative of metriacanthosaurus.

3. INOSTRANCEVIA- The Largest Gorgonopsid of its family, during the Permian age and of course the design of this animal is what later predatory mammals would copy and perfect the design of what this species was doing before the rise of dinosaurs. The apex predator of its environment it hunted giant reptiles as well as other Proto mammals. Which I'm hoping Frontier will consider adding because this animal is just too dang cool and is the first sabertooth animal to ever exist in history which later other saber-tooth mammals would soon inherit.

4. FASOLASUCHUS- a lot of people would say why not Postosuchus well this species truly was the king of the Triassic age in South America, T-Rex was the king of the Cretaceous but this species ruled the Triassic, because this Fasolasuchus was ginormous at 33 ft in length and pretty much made Postosuchus look like a Chihuahua in comparison. Plus an interesting quadrupedal Apex Hunter would be definitely something different something new that we don't have in the game currently and we even saw the species in the movie 65 so I would be interested to see what Frontier would do with this Crocodilomorph in Design aswell as Mechanics.

2. SINOSAURUS- a relative of Dilophosaurus and match the dilophosaurus or the real Dilophosaurus in size of 20 ft in length this would be an absolute opportunity for Frontier to introduce a close relative of Dilophosaurus into the game but at the same time give us the parallels between the Jurassic Park Dilophosaurus and what the real Dilophosaurus would have looked like if this species were added to the game. The species was probably the apex predator of its environment in China during the early Jurassic so it would be interesting to see this species fighting its relative Dilophosaurus in a fight in this game.View attachment 379143

I would by far prefer a Postosuchus , which could grow up to 7m based on the largest Speciemen and most estimates of Fasolasuchus around 8 -9 m .
Remains of Fasolasuchus are very fragmentary and most bodyparts are reconstrukted with help of the much better conserved and more complete remains of Postosuchs ;) !
IF Fasolasuchus would still be the one that could come in JWE II i´d hope for some more realistic model like in the Picture under this text.
I would hate that " ARK" design to come to JWE II because we don´t need another Hybrid - freak ( like Liopleurodon ) in JWE II .
That said I hope frontier will give Liopleurodon some Day a 99% pure dna variant without 40% genes of Crocs to fill the code...lol.

What's the point of Tyrannotitan exactly? It doesn't add anything we don't already get from Giganotosaurus... and adding obscure genre like Sinosaurus to fill a "realism" gap is among the dumbest reason to include anything. Makes even less sense when you keep posting that Godzilla-inspired Fasolasuchus... you want one animal for more realism, but you also support a different animal being unrealistic?

@Jurassic Tyrant King I agree it would be nice to have certain large carnivores to the game, but I do see @DragonNTiger and @Dinotracker points in regards to Tyrannotitan and Fasolasuchus. I think we could use more attention to aquatic and flying species as well. Some species I would recommend include:
Maip: A species of large megaraptorid theropod dinosaur from the late Cretaceous period found in the Chorrillo Formation of Santa Cruz, Argentina. It is estimated to have been around 9–10 meters (30–33 ft.) long. It is suspected to be the largest megaraptorid known from South America, and possibly the world. The generic name, Maip, references a malicious being in Aonikenk mythology that is “the shadow of death” that kills with cold wind.

Tratayenia, an extinct genus of megaraptoran theropod dinosaurs that lived during the late Cretaceous period whose remains were found in the Bajo de la Carpa Formation of Argentina. It grew to be around 8 meters (26 ft.) long. Tratayenia is one of the youngest known genera of megaraptorans, having lived only about 83 million years ago. Tratayenia is also the largest-bodied carnivorous animal named from the Bajo de la Carpa Formation, reinforcing the hypothesis that megaraptorids were apex predators in southern South America from the Turonian through the Santonian or early Campanian, following the extinction of carcharodontosaurids.

Yangchuanosaurus, An genus of metriacanthosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived in China from the Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous periods. Yangchuanosaurus hails from the Upper Shaximiao Formation and Suining Formation and was the largest predator in the area during that time. It is believed to have grown between 26 and 36 feet long and weighed around 3 tons. This theropod was named after the area in which was discovered, Yongchuan, in China.

Saurophaganax, A genus of large allosaurid dinosaur from the Morrison Formation of Late Jurassic (about 151 million years ago) period located in Oklahoma, United States. It can reach 10.5–12.3 meters (34–40 ft) in length and 2.7–8.3 metric tons (3.0–9.1 short tons) in body mass. Saurophaganax is the official state fossil of Oklahoma. The generic name is derived from Greek σαυρος, sauros, "lizard", φάγειν, phagein, "to eat", with the compound meaning of "lizard eater". Later on the Greek suffix -άναξ, anax, meaning "ruler", to the earlier name, because the original name had already been taken by another animal. The specific epithet maximus means "the largest" in Latin.

Torvosaurus, A genus of large megalosaurine theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 165 to 148 million years ago during the late Middle and Late Jurassic period in Colorado, USA, Portugal, Germany, and possibly England, Spain, Tanzania, and Uruguay. It grew between 9 and 11 meters (30-36 ft.) and weighed between 2 and 5 metric tons (2.2-5.5 short tons). It was the largest terrestrial carnivore in Europe during the late Jurassic. The genus name Torvosaurus derives from the Latin word torvus, meaning "savage", and the Greek word sauros (σαυρος), meaning "lizard".

Afrovenator, A genus of megalosaurid theropod dinosaur from the Middle to Late Jurassic Period found in the Tiourarén Formation of the department of Agadez in Niger. The generic name comes from the Latin afer, "African", and venator, "hunter". It grew between 6.8-8 meters (22-26 feet) long. The generic name refers to its predatory nature, and its provenance from Africa. The specific name refers to Abaka, the Tuareg name for the region of Niger where the fossil was found.

Lourinhanosaurus, A species of carnivorous theropod that lived during the Late Jurassic Period that was found in the Lourinhã Formation in Portugal. The sub-adult holotype grew to be around 4.5 meters in length and weighed around 160 kilograms. In addition to some sub adult fossils that were found, 100 eggs from this species were recovered as well. This was the first theropod dinosaur which Gastroliths were found to have been intentionally ingested.

Neovenator: A species of carcharodontosaurian theropod dinosaur from early Cretaceous period found in Wessex Formation on the south coast of the Isle of Wight, England. It was approximately 7 meters (23 ft.) in length, and was of a gracile build, weighing 1 metric ton (1.1 short tons). It is one of the best known theropod dinosaurs from the Early Cretaceous of Europe. In 2015, it was discovered that it had a complex system of neurovascular canals in the front part of its snout, something that has been found quite often in Spinosaurids that functioned as a sensory organ that may have helped it hunt aquatic prey but this is still being debated. The generic name Neovenator means "new hunter" from the Greek neo~, "new" and Latin venator, "hunter". It was featured in the Dinosaur Britain documentary.

Anteosaurus, a large carnivorous dinocephalian synapsid in the Middle Permian period, about 265 to 260 million years ago in what is now South Africa. Anteosaurus was the largest known carnivorous non-mammalian synapsid and the largest terrestrial predator of the Permian period. It grew to be around 5–6 meters (16–20 ft.) long and weighing about 600 kg (1,300 lb).[It is thought that thy head butt each other. Its name means before lizard in Latin.

Mastodonsaurus, An extinct genus of temnospondyl amphibian from the Middle Triassic in Southern Germany. It belongs to a Triassic group of temnospondyls called Capitosauria, characterized by their large body size and presumably aquatic lifestyles. Mastodonsaurus remains one of the largest amphibians known, and may have exceeded 6 meters (20 feet) in length. The marked reduction of its limbs, the strong tail, and sensory grooves on the head called sulci show that Mastodonsaurus was an aquatic animal that rarely, if ever, ventured on land. Mastodonsaurus may have been completely unable to leave the water, as large quantities of bones have been found that suggest individuals died in large numbers when pools dried up during times of drought.

Cymbospondylus, A basal early ichthyosaur that lived between the early and middle Triassic period. It could grow between 4 and 17 meters (13-56 feet) long. Cymbospondylus is one of the largest animals known from that time. It appeared in Sea Monsters: A Walking with Dinosaurs Trilogy. Its teeth structure suggest that fed on fish, cephalopods, and possibly other marine reptiles for larger species. If gets added I would recommend the developers have it require fish feeder in its enclosure, but also give the ability to use the shark feeder as well.

Thalattoarchon, An extinct genus of large predatory ichthyosaurs that lived during the Middle Triassic in what is now North America. It grew to be around 8.6 meters (28 ft.) long. The genus name comes from Ancient Greek θάλασσα (thálassa, "sea"), and ἀρχός arkhós, "ruler"), directly referencing the animal's imposing size and position as an apex predator of the Triassic seas. The species name also comes from Ancient Greek and is derived from the words σαῦρος (saûros, "lizard") and φᾰγεῖν (phageîn, "to eat"), in reference to its carnivorous diet.

Guizhouichthyosaurus, An of ichthyosaur known primarily from the Xiaowa Formation from the Late Triassic in southwest China. It could grow between 4.8 and 7 meters (16-23 ft.) long. Researchers found the remains of a 12 foot long thalattosaur in the stomach of one specimen, which is thought to be the first evidence of mega predation.

Temnodontosaurus, An extinct genus of ichthyosaur from the Early Jurassic period. They lived between 200 and 175 million years ago in England, France, Luxembourg, Germany, Belgium, and possibly Chile. It grew between 6 and 10 meters (20-33 ft.) long. Its diet likely consisted mainly of vertebrates such as fish, cephalopods, plesiosaurs and other ichthyosaurs. One specimen was found with the remains of Stenopterygius, another ichthyosaur, in its abdominal cavity. It is the only Jurassic ichthyosaur genus for which a mainly-vertebrates diet has been proposed. It is known for its incredibly large eyes which, at approximately 20 cm (7.9 in) in diameter, are believed to be the largest of any known animal. The genus name is derived from the Greek words temno, meaning "to cut", odont, meaning "tooth", and sauros, meaning "lizard".

Thalassotitan: Thalassotitan is an extinct genus of large mosasaurs that lived during the late Cretaceous period in what is now Morocco, around 66 million years ago. Thalassotitan was one of the largest mosasaurs. Its skull measured up to 1.3 meters (4.3 ft) in length, corresponding to a total length of 9–10 meters (30–33 ft). It got a lot of media attention after it was described. The genus name translates to Titan of the Seas. Its species name, atrox, is a Latin word that means "cruel" or "merciless", which references the species' trophic position as an apex predator and frequency of intraspecific bite marks on fossils.

Cryodrakon, A genus of azhdarchid pterosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period in what is now Canada, which was recovered from the Dinosaur Park Formation.
It is thought to have had a wingspan between 5 and 10 meters (16-33 ft.). Cryodrakon is thought to have been capable of flight, and if it was, it would have been one of the largest flying animals known to have existed. It is thought to have hunted smaller animals on the ground. The generic name is derived from the Greek κρύος, kryos, "icy cold", and δράκων, drakon, "dragon". The specific name means "belonging to Boreas, the north wind", or simply "northern". Habib had considered the name Cryodrakon viserion, as a reference to the ice dragon in Game of Thrones.
