Will they be compatible with Dimorphodon?
Then will be have water effects like splashes. It would be rare to see an aquatic reptile swim without the water moving.As you mentioned, the Species Field Guide uses footage from an Alpha version of the game, so there's still things that will be fixed and smoothed out!
They did pretty much have the same philosophy with Planet Zoo, having animals similar to ones already in base game (sizes were changed up for two of them)I hope the pre-order species are more exciting than last time, nobody cares for things like archeomimomomaoaiarowhateverboringmimus for example.
I think it'd be quite the bit of torture if they were incompatible, considering the mixed exhibit from the movie is the first thing people would want to make.Will they be compatible with Dimorphodon?
Like skins from the classic trilogy for dinos that already exist? And maybe more, like for the pteranodons?As you mentioned, the Species Field Guide uses footage from an Alpha version of the game, so there's still things that will be fixed and smoothed out!
Will you be able to put Dinosaurs in the aviaries along side any pterosaurs? Also will we be able to have the shape of the Pteranodons be the JP/// or TLWJP models? If not, we would love to see that in the future!Welcome back, Park Managers, to our latest Species Field Guide!
In this series of articles, we will be spotlighting and discussing some of the incredible dinosaurs and reptiles you will be caring for and bioengineering in Jurassic World Evolution 2. With over 75 different species of prehistoric animals you'll be meeting both new and familiar faces, and we are incredibly excited to share them with you!
Last week, we introduced you to the first of our aerial reptiles for Jurassic World Evolution 2, Dimorphodon, and we're staying airborne for this week's Species Field Guide, and reintroducing you to their slightly larger cousins: Pteranodon!
A piscivorous flying reptile, Pteranodon was one of the largest flying reptiles, with wingspans of up to 7m. Though primarily piscivorous, the Pteranodons of Jurassic World Evolution 2 can be aggressive, especially when outside their Aviaries.
Like other pterosaurs, Pteranodon was a strong flier with a large breastbone, reinforced shoulder girdles, and muscular attachments on the arm bones - all of which point to a powerful body and a large amount of maneuverability. Their relatively large and bulky bodies makes sustained flight difficult, and you'll see them perching inside their Aviaries when they need a rest.
Pteranodon is a social animal and can get somewhat aggressive if they don't have other members of their species near by. Make sure to account for this when you're planning out their Aviaries, so they can keep each other company. You will also need a fair amount of space for them to spread their wings, preferring a mixture of open space and wetlands environments surrounding them. Historically, Pteranodons lived in a coastal environment, which is the motivation behind the high need for a wetland environment.
As with their cousin, Dimorphodon, they'll start to expand their territory into the rest of your park if they manage to break out of their Aviaries. They may also start taking swipes at the guests, so make sure you open up those shelters to protect your visitors from any and all attacking dinosaurs.
The Pteranodon is a familiar face and a Jurassic World staple, and we'd be remiss not to include them in Jurassic World Evolution 2. We think both you and your guests will enjoy viewing these fascinating creatures as they soar through your parks' Aviaries. Will you be bioengineering them for your parks? Let us know in the comments.
We have even more dinosaurs and reptiles to show you in the coming weeks and months! Be prepared to see both new and familiar faces as we highlight a small portion of the ancient animals you will be able to bioengineer in Jurassic World Evolution 2. Don't forget to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for all things Jurassic World Evolution 2!
It's a canon mention, Claire mentions it as a name she had to learn to say in JW (it's small, but that wouldn't stop the flow of suggestions, given Nipponosaurus was on the holoscape prop and that got suggested a few times).Archaeornithomimus is canon? Where? Too bad, that means that boring creature will be in JWE2... Another place tainted by boringness, and I hope they don't add Hadrosaurus... Vanilla boring, rather see Shantungosaurus and Lambeosaurus, hell even saurolophus over hadrosaurus...
Still don't see how being mentioned by name makes it any more canon than anything else... or why that alone should make it a priority.It's a canon mention, Claire mentions it as a name she had to learn to say in JW (it's small, but that wouldn't stop the flow of suggestions, given Nipponosaurus was on the holoscape prop and that got suggested a few times).
People asking for Archaeornithomimus are just strange in my opinion, who wants that Struthiomimus clone?
Uhh... what?! Dude... Ornithomimus and Struthiomimus are barely any different... yet Ornithomimus would be a better pick over Archaeornithomimus? ...that's some very strange logic you got there...Ornithomimus would even be better than Archaeo...
Novel? Are you sure you're not thinking about the magazine series? Each issue featured a different dinosaur on the cover and yes Archaeornithomimus was one of them... like number 38 or something... or was it Dromiceiomimus? I don't recall the specific one actually... I actually still have the complete set lying around somewhere--we'll, all the ones released in my area... apparently there were 103 issues in all...I only remember Archaeo from an novel called DINOSAURS! back in the 90ties, it was on the frond page for some bizarre reason...
Or the Pteranodons from TLW?the design of the pteranodons of JP3 (as in JWE1) will it also be available ?
You can house multiple species of flying reptiles inside an Aviary, so you can try to put them together.Will they be compatible with Dimorphodon?
At least Ornithomimus has a name I can somewhat pronounce, if we really NEED (I said I want just two) three species of these dinosaurs, I prefer the one with the easier name over the one with the horrid-too-long-name. Also in the old books and magazines the Ornithomimius had VERY beautiful colors, so I always remember it out of nostalgica, the Archeolotalmimiusboringimus never appeared in any of my books, and in the DINOSAUR magazine it looked horrible boring.Uhh... what?!

Interesting. I thought they would hunt each other like crazy.You can house multiple species of flying reptiles inside an Aviary, so you can try to put them together.
Archaeornithomimus is literally just Ornithomimus with an Ar-kay in front of it. I dont see why we cant have 4 OrnithomimidsAt least Ornithomimus has a name I can somewhat pronounce, if we really NEED (I said I want just two) three species of these dinosaurs, I prefer the one with the easier name over the one with the horrid-too-long-name.

And yes it were magazines, and there were only 52 parts in the Netherlands, in America they continued to the 100, not here in the Netherlands. Did Ankylosaurus finally get a profile page? I was missing it, same with some others...
Erm... okay then. If you're gonna use nostalgia and fanboyism to justify your position then... well... I can't really help with that...At least Ornithomimus has a name I can somewhat pronounce, if we really NEED (I said I want just two) three species of these dinosaurs, I prefer the one with the easier name over the one with the horrid-too-long-name.

I don't recall to be honest... to be fair, they stopped releasing the magazine in my area too... actually, I think it was around 52 they cut it off here too...And yes it were magazines, and there were only 52 parts in the Netherlands, in America they continued to the 100, not here in the Netherlands.

Well, they were depicted as co-existing in Jurassic World... and of course in real life they had very different ecological niches and diets--one was a piscivore, the other ate small animals--so they probably wouldn't be bothered by each other's presence.Interesting. I thought they would hunt each other like crazy.
I do kind of agree that Archeornithomimus is a bit pointless; it's a bit too similar to Struthiomimus and Gallimimus. That said, there are some really interesting Ornithomimids that haven't been added yet; Pelecanimimus is primitive and has interesting head features... and of course, Deinocheirus is pretty epic... and now that we know what it actually looks like, it's even more epic.Archaeornithomimus is literally just Ornithomimus with an Ar-kay in front of it. I dont see why we cant have 4 Ornithomimids
That's what it looked like... they were clearly together in the same room when the Indominus broke in.Were they actually depicted as co-existing?
