What do you guys think about hybrids in JWE?

Your argument is irrelevant as (other than the I-Rex and Indoraptor) they don't exist within the JPW. There are games already, heavily based around JPW which do feature cenozoic creatures.

No it's not. Everything I have said is very relevant. But asking for animals that aren't Dinosaurs to be put into the game is ridiculous.
 
I personally don't mind hybrids the dinosaurs of Jurassic Park/Jurassic World weren't exactly created with there original form in mind, They were designed to look scary and to attract more guests to the park the Indominus Rex was a prime example of this, It tricked the JW staff into believing it had escaped before making it's real escape and causing mayhem through out the park so yeah I don't mind that hybrids will be a part of the game as it stays true to the movie franchise.
 
Said on another post, the Indominus and Indoraptor is enough for me. Even then, I might not use them that much.

Why? The I-Rex and Indo aren't Dinosaurs either. They're pure fiction. Why are they justified when cenozoic creatures (we'll leave modern creatures out) unjustified? You mention JP lore, which (short of the I-Rex and Indo) has no other hybrids, and yet you can bet they'll be future hybrids with this game - so by your logic, those additional hybrids aren't justified either? No more so than the I-Rex or Indo.

Because they still are dinosaurs, hybrid dinosaurs of course, but dinosaurs nonetheless. The scientists combined the DNA from the various species they have in order to create them. Besides the JP franchise only features animals from the Mesozoic era (dinosaurs, pterosaurs, marine reptiles), adding Cenozoic animals into the game is questionable at best. When comparing animals from the Cenozoic to the animals from the Mesozoic, unfortunately they're boring; the Mammoth is just a more hairy elephant and Smilodon is just a lion with slightly bigger fangs.

Also hybrid dinosaurs have been a part of the franchise since The Lost World, with The Chaos Effect toy line featuring many unique and interesting designs.

They are hybrids made up of a different dinosaurs. Cause no where in JP Lore did we ever see Cenozoic animals. To expect them to be in the game or to be put in is ridiculous. It's so ridiculous I can't believe anyone seriously mentioned doing it and would even try to argue for it. This on the level of that thread about feathered Dinosaurs created by that guy PyroRaptor. There is no debate. Those animals are not part of JP lore and will never be in the game.

While I do find all the animals from the past interesting I do have to say the Cenozoic animals are not as interesting as Dinosaurs. I would much rather see a T-Rex than a Mammoth or Mastodon.
 
I think with indominus rex and indoraptor is enough, i wanna play Jurassic World, no Hybrid World...

I totally agree with that.
I would rather have more species in the future instead of more hybrids.

Edit: And I do mean dinosaur species, NOT modern animals or cenozoic species.

personally I prefer my "science real" dinos, however it might be fun to play around with things. I've changed my mind on things before and hoping this will sell itself to me once we get hands on.

What about a Cenozoic/Jurassic Hybrid? If 51% DNA of a Triceratops was spliced with 41% DNA from a Mammoth, the result of that would be a ultimately be more Dinosaur.

Note: I'm not for one second suggesting Frontier look at splicing those two creates. Just an example.

Toys aren't actual Dinosaurs. [blah]

Quite fiery on this...

We may not specifically desire Cenozoic animals, but some gamers may - it's no different from some people (here) only wanting Dinosaurs (and no Avian/Aquatic species).

So far you're the only one.
And it's a big difference asking for animals from a different era than asking for more species from the Mesozoic era.
 
Quick reminder : Pterosaurs and Mosasaurus are not dinosaurs. We do want them. Other archosaurs (like ancient crocs) and amphibians are fine too.
 
Are you talking to me? Who's that person? I'm just pointing out that any animals from the Mesozoic era are welcome in any JP/JW canon, movie or game.
 
Mesozoic is ok.
But no other animals and no rollercoasters @Flash525.
You are the only one who comes up with these ideas over and over again. This game is not planet coaster, not zoo tycoon and no colorful Care Bears game for 12y olds ;)
 
Personally I wouldn't mind a few more hybrid dinosaurs. There is the Stegoceratops that was planned to be in Jurassic World alongside Indominus rex, true it was cut but it still apears for a second on a computer monitor in the movie.

And a few more, maybe 3 or 4, would be a good number, since 5 seems to be the magic number for dinosaur types. Some ideas:

-Carnoraptor, a Carnotaurus/Velociraptor hybrid, about 50% larger than a raptor with the basic shape but also has the Carnotaurus' brow horns and skin armor/texture with a bit of the snout shape
-Apatakylosaurus, an Apatosaurus/Ankylosaurus hybrid, Apato with Ankylo scutes on the top half of its body, neck, and tail, spikes along its sides, armor on its head, and a shorter tail with the club
-Kentropelta, a Kentrosaurus/Sauropelta hybrid, Sauropelta's body wth a more Kentro head, Kentro plates and spikes down its back and tail, and the elongated shouler spines on Sauro's shoulders
 
Seriously this person sounds like pyroraptors other account.
Well that's a pathetically weak comment. :rolleyes:

He was talking to me (and I guess, by extension, you). Assuming he actually (incorrectly) believes what he wrote, then he thinks you and I are the same person both highlighting what is, and isn't a Dinosaur and that. Take no notice!

Duly noted. I shall, in the name of 12yr olds everywhere, drop this request. ;)

I agree, the number of hybrids does not have to be very large, 4-6 hybrids are very good.Carnoraptor would be a good choice of hybrid, since it does not look like a monster, in fact it looks more like a dinosaur than Indominus or Indoraptor.

It would be interesting to see a hybrid of ceratopsians like Triceratops + Styracosaurus + Chasmosaurus. A hybrid of medium-sized carnivores, Majungasaurus + Carnotaurus + Ceratosaurus + Metriacantosaurus. A simple hybrid with Edmontosaurus Dna + Maiasaura + Tsintaosaurus. Frontier has many options to make simple hybrids, do not want to see a similar monstrosity Giganocephalus or a hybrid of Brachiosaurus and Spinosaurus, for example.
 
[haha] ...the number of people here (on the forums) that are seemingly against anything modern or cenozoic in the way of creatures because they're 'not Dinosaurs' and yet the mere thought of hybrids (which aren't really Dinosaurs either - at least as far as evolution is concerned) is accepted? There's an element of hypocritical irony in here somewhere.

As per the question though; I'm all for them being included, so long as...

  1. there aren't too many of the same
  2. hybrids aren't given priority over actual dinosaurs
  3. hybrids aren't fashioned too obviously on their ancestors (the traditional Stegceratops for example, just looks silly and super-unnatural)
I don't particularly plan to use many of them though - if any. I can't imagine I'll be investing much, if anything, into Hybrid DLC packs.

The difference is that the two hybrids that are in the game were genetically engineered in the movies. They are lore cannon whether we want them to be or not.
