Seriously? the dinosaurs can not attack the employees of the park?

[Ishidreishon]

I'm reading a bit and I saw a subject where dinosaurs can not attack the rangers, jeeps etc.

Someone who explains me why I do not understand, I know it's not about opening the cage for an angry carnivore to eat a crowd of people including jeeps and rangers ... but why can not they attack them? Super human? a jeep ranger can enter without any worry to the paddock of the rex?

If this is real, one point less for Frontier ....

It is a bit disappointing, but it is what it is. The game still looks great.

I think it has something to do with gameplay mechanics. They don't want players to have to control the ACU teams all the time I imagine. Also by making it that way they can cut back on the amount of AI work they have to put into the game. I would just have the ACU teams in the Jeep stay a distance back or so from the animals. That's what they would do in real life with modern animals. It's the players that will want to get chased by the Dinosaurs and have the vehicle rammed or attacked. I know I would like it.

In JPOG you can train your Dinosaur to ran away from the Jeep ... and safari worked without losing the illusion of dangerous animals. It feels like a step backwards to me here, that Animals do not react to the vehicle and workers at all... That´s the last time I will say anything about this topic at all, cos I already made my point clear, that I feel a bit disappointet in "losing illusion"...

I agree with you, but it is something I am against in videogames ... let the players do all the work, I expected from this game that the ACU team would come to an emergency automatically and they would take care of the work (partly succefull and manage to calm the situation and in other cases that is out of control and create a greater emergency that implies more security ACU on to the scenario)

I am one of those players who like to create and see how AI does its job as it should be and that not always things go well, if not occasionally things go wrong and involves more time and more action to fix the problem. An example a rex out of control and a jeep go to sedate the rex, the paddock doors are opened and the team can not sleep the trex, are devoured and the rex comes out because the ACU team left the door open of paddock. actions that involve the player taking "send an ACU jeep" or send a "Helicopter ACU" would be more than enough for me and more efficienty.

We actually already have an ongoing thread about the same topic: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...d-game-if-your-lacking-killable-workers/page2

Not sure if there's a need for another one so soon.
