#Frontier Species Redesigns
1447 messages · Page 2 of 2 (latest)
it'd probably get something similar to deinonychus
well yeah but at the time that's what they based it off
I mean I bet they are gonna redesign lio but nothing else
it's been around for like 7 years
I mean lio is the second most hated design
They’ll prob save it for last like they did with deinonychus
And hype it up
Until its reveal
Would be cool if its patterns were also based on pinnipeds like kronosaurus
Maybe a sea lion pattern this time
You have any proof he said this or....
Yeah where is the proof my dude
He didn't want the design that he used in the meme picture of the post he did, that picture is old, he was just reposting it
Just wanted to point out what we could have had
i especially like 4 on the first image
The concepts actually look better
i know, they are beautiful
i like big chunky acro ngl
I will say I like the chunky proportions but I don’t think they’re chunky enough if we want em chunky, taking it in the sorta direction where the high spines are a muscle bed like seen in Bison is awesome
But if they’re going that direction the raised back has gotta be higher
yeah i see what your saying
We rolled a nat 1
All they gotta do for me is fix that face and I'll be happy
Is it just me or they actually fixed the albertosaurus textures?
They did
Oh wow, that’s nice
I always thought the crest on the frontier Edmonto seemed out of place and just looks like a disc coming out of its head, feel like it should look more uniform with the body
How the dimorphism should've been and how the species should actually look
for Charcaradontosaurus I'm hoping that this species will look more chunky closer to its paleo accurate version or you could just merge the two versions The Evolution 1 version and the Paleo accurate version & merge them into one.
Oh absolutely
If I’m gonna be honest I’d prefer if the carch was made into a modern version of the JPOG carch
How bout no
Agreed
how about an actual paleo accurate carch
Exactly
Much cooler than some nostalgia bait 🙄
JPOG Carch is ok as a carch design imo
Like it has a pretty badass design I’ll give it that
But that’s really it
It doesn’t really match up to carch that well
If they are really going that route tho, I just hope they mix some accurate fixes with it
Something like this for example (Ik the image is pixelated af but you get the deal)
Personally just dont need it at all
We could have a dope as shit Accurate Carcha
imagine the peakness of an actually accurate carcha
Reptiliano mentioned 🗣
yesyesyesyes I love their designs
Well whatever floats your boat ig
Those are amazing designs tho
Would be amazing seeing that in game
They should hire manu paleoart they make the best jp/accuracy mix designs
yes.
them and emy would be so powerfull
Honestly this would be incredible.
Something Jurassic Park coded
Paleo accurate design would be cool to but I’d rather it be something more inspired by JPOG. Classic Jurassic.
Not our fault accurate carcha is peak
Well it is
anyways, I hope megalo gets a redesign. It doesn’t really look like a megalosarid
Like this looks like a completely different dinosaur
Is it?
yeah, accurate carchar looks great, it’s just that I have different preferences
I would absolutely take a accurate carch
JPOG carcha aint it, only reason people want it is because of Nostalgia
lowk true, including the Jwe reddit
Yup
JPOG Carcha isnt actually that good LMAO
Its just kinda mid....
Its better than what we have rn
But its still kid
Mid*
Yeah it’s also pretty dated too, the skull shape is too boxy
I want an accurate carcha 😔🙏
We couldnt get a good Acro
So PLEASE give us a good Carcha
Well the Acrocanthosaurus head is more narrow like it's rl counterpart on both Sexes. In fact the head is the issue that I had with it in evolution too but evolution three it's actually a lot better, but could use an upgrade of its back hump.
Evolution 3 its the exact same as 2?
You must be trippin to think its any different
Just do a comparisons between the Evolution 2 & 3 Versions and you'll see.
No because they’re exactly the same
Waste my time
They're 1:1
Only difference is patterns
Well you can always play prehistoric Kingdom if you want a paleo accurate Acrocanthosaurus.
Oh boy
Almost as if not everyone has a PC and almost as if I dont want to play an incomplete game with less features than what JWE3 has to offer
Personally I still think it's better than what we had in the previous two games the only problem with it is the fact that it doesn't have a more pronounced hump
Just waffling atp
Yup
It’s the same model
Feels like arguing with a brick wall or a redditor
Pretty sure the posture might be ever so slightly different but it is the same model
Same model, slightly different patterns
Saying “oh just play PK” is stupid
Deadass
People forget that not everyone has access to a PC
exactly
It’s a Frontier original design that doesn’t stand up to Frontier’s current design standard and doesn’t properly represent the animal
Also I dont want the whole roster to be fully accurate to science, I'd appreciate some accuracy in between my JP/JW designs because its a cool mash
Carcharodontosaurus should 100% get the treatment of a brand new model which should be faithful to the animal it was
Not some ugly model with a "megaraptoran" skull
Definitely
JPOG carcha isnt good either
In fact its quite mid 🗣
Fuck you I said it, take your nostalgia and shove it up your shit hole
And it’s not even like people are asking for the original design to disappear, just a variant like they did for Deinonychus
Did I go a tad far
I believe Im quite justified going by how many "I want JPOG Carcha" comments I see
Exactly
Give me an accurate Carcha and shit will be peak
One last thing
Do NOT give it the WORST ear piercing sounds known to man
JPOG Roar is actually awful
I have never had headaches worse than when I had to listen to the JWE Carcha with JPOG Noises
I like them
I hate them
Genuinely the worst thing frontier did next to giving Carcha such an awful design
Universal doesn’t approve anything
Erm actually, frontier has free will for their Dino designs
I honestly don't think Tylo is that bad. It just needs some dental work and a less "aggressively boring" skin selection.
Also less stiff animations (more sinuous, like the Mosasaurus)
-# stegoceratops pls...
Today I learned that some people like the hybrids
A lot of people do tbf
Waaa waaa waa 🫵🏽😂
But what about tylosaurus and giganotasaurus?
I always thought people disliked them
They should
I thinks it’s just a lot of those who don’t never stop letting people know they don’t. I’ve always been a fan of the hybrids. The Indominus Rex is probably the best villain Jurassic has ever had.
Rage bait 100%
Not at all
I don’t believe you at all
Tbh the Ankylodocus,Spinoraptor and Spinoceratops are my favorites... Stegoceratops I hate because of its design. 
I only find spinoceratops to be interesting, but the other designs are kind of just lame to me
I wish they pulled the move they did with Ankylodocus in the first game then in JWE2 
Would be way cooler if we didn’t waste the slots on the hybrids 😔
PLEASE
Anomalocaris my beloved
Though it would've been a bit too small for the lagoon? imagine tryna spot it in there through the viewing gallery-
Indominus is prob the best hybrid ever written in the franchise but best villain is a huge stretch imo
Would be awesome if they introduced a "mini lagoon" as in like a big fish tank?
PK has vivariums, JWE could make great use of them
Like imagine if moros had a vivarium
Nahhhhh. Not saying the big one or the Spino are not cool, they are. I just find the Indominus to be more interesting.
That’s fine lol.
Like, from a narrative standpoint, Indominus doesn't really do anything new
The point of the franchise is that playing God and bringing things that deserve to be dead back into the world is a fool's errand that leads to nothing but destruction. In JW, all the characters are just too stupid. Indo isn't smart; it just takes advantage of extreme stupidity. The hybrids are also just so ugly 😭 Like iIndoraptorand Scorpius alone look so bad 💀
yeah but guys, we’re getting a lil off topic over here, so please stick to the premise of the post 😊
If we’re talking hybrids tho, stegoceratops needs a redesign
Only hybrids I dislike are the Indoraptor and scorpius. Every movie has stupid moments and characters. Just some hide it easier. Could argue the raptors in JP weren’t that smart. They escaped because of human error. Why didn’t they put a brick behind the raptor cage on wheels 🫠 who knows.
Yeah something maybe similar to the one deleted from the film.
Giga is fine-ish, frontier giga has been generally well received the whole time its been around. Tylo.... I dont use lagoons enough to particularly care but imo it only needs a new head design to fix the awful dentistry
What about liopleurodon?
just needs a redesign, it could be the next deinonichus
My biggest hope is that they tweek the design the pterosaurs just a little bit by making the wing membrane attach at the ankle instead of around the hip/knee to make them a more accurate design.
Granted a couple look fine but seeing almost all of them with dangling legs in the air just doesn't look right to me and puts me off using them despite how much I would like to see them flying around in aviaries and in the open.
bump
I hope the Tylosaurus gets reintroduced with this design
Ontop of all the telltale designs I’d totally buy a DLC for the Novel versions of dinosaurs
It won’t
DILO
I definitely would too! I really wish we’d get consistent designs throughout the series.
Imagine having the chameleon Carno in JWE3 ❤️🩹
@wise jewel the JPTG Mosa is owned by Telltale broski, it will never come
It would be heavenly
Wouldn’t it be owned by Universal? Especially after telltale shut down the first time?
Probably and probably not?
Either way its a pretty.... awful design....
Its just some sea monster
Doesnt scream "Tylosaurus" to me
I mean… we’re gonna be getting Distortus Rex in a few months anyway
Its canon to the movies
Unlike JPTG
I thought the telltale game was considered “soft cannon” or something
I don’t disagree that this tylosaurus is definitely more monstrous than dinosaur looking but if they wanna had hypsi because it’s canon other stuff is on the table, of course unless they don’t eve have the rights to use those telltale designs
Nope
Im not under the impression hypsi was added cos novel
It did live within floodplain habitats and such
Just because it HAPPENS to be in the novel doesnt mean they added it BECAUSE it was in the novel
They could’ve at least made it swim, or make it look distinct in anyway
Its distinct in the way it wasnt "Cutified"
Unlike Dryosaurus
Probs result in me using Hypsi more than Dryo
I mean yeah I like that it wasn’t cutified, and I’ll definitely be using it more than dryo but I was hoping for some feathers on it
a really bad megaraptoran too 😭
it fails at every metric of being a decent megaraptoran or carcharadontosaur
its quite impressive actually
It fails at being anything
That’s what I always assumed
Not everything has to be paleo accurate. It looks better and is more unique than the original Frontier Tylosaur. Both the JPTG Tylosaur and JWD are examples of them taking extreme liberties with creature designs. The difference is the tylo looks good and the giga doesn’t.
Thats definitely a stretch 😭🙏
JWTG tylo is like....
Balancing the scales with Frontier Tylo
Frontier Tylo in reality if it didnt have dental issues would be 1000x better than JWTG tylo
It genuinely wouldnt be a competition
The only thing that looks good from telltale tylo it's the pattern, it literally looks like a sea monster, I don't understand this obsession with having mosters instead of dinosaurs in a dinosaur game
honestly jptg tylo just looks neat and has interesting patterns
thats what makes it really cool imo
but id change a lot about it if i went on to redesign it
i really dislike the weird tail and the bony looking spikes it has, for example
on god .
they can definitely use the telltale designs btw
- TT Games doesn't exist anymore
- JPTG is a JP product, and therefore everything made for it, and itself, belong to Universal..think of it like commissioned artwork
they (uni) js dont care abt jptg, simple
An animal can look like a monster. I think the JPTG tylo would be an awesome addition
Oh also doesn't mean the animal is a monster
Making creatures look like monsters make sense in a design standpoint but making real life animals look like monsters is kinda wrong. They have to at least try to look like the actual animal
Why?
Can we not have both?
One design that looks like the animal and another that is more monstrous or exaggerated/inaccurate
Nothing wrong with options
Because the paleo accuracy snobs cry if something doesn’t look 100% like what it’s theorized to look like.
I agree. Current Tylo looks horrible imo.
Who's gonna stop 'em, telltale?
The only problem it's the face
literally
(Lowkey the pattern too but yeah that's a problem shared between many species like sauropods)
We do. Its JW Mosa
Its Monster but still maintains something of the actual animal
JPTG Tylo is NONE of the animal
Its all monster
There thats settled
For YOU maybe lmao
If you think JPTG tylo resembles ANYTHING but a monster, then thats your problem to fix
It’s not that deep bud. It’s a cool design. This is Jurassic Park. People can want stuff like this and paleo accuracy.
If it’s not your cup of tea that cools
"This is Jurassic Park" is such a void argument
Really? When I look at the last few movies, doesn’t seem like it to me
Jurassic Park had mostly accurate animals for its time. Just because they're outdated now doesnt mean they weren't then
Yes yes we all know that. Universal stopped trying nearly 30 years ago.
Im sure all the movies had at least 1 exception
Jurassic Park - Dilo (still mostly accurate outside of size and the frill)
TLW - Not too sure really
JP3 - either Brachi or Ceratosaurus
JW - Mosa?
JWFK - Sinoceratops and Baryonyx
JWD - Giga (looks more like an acro sorta)
JWR - Quetzal
JP and TLW did take things far more serious but JP3 gave the raptors primate level intellect and basically went full on speculative biology with the Spinosaurus. JW had the Mosa and I’d argue the Dimphors look like little monsters as well. Plus the Indominus. FK Sino and Bary definitely, but also the Indoraptor. Dominion had the Giga and Atrociraptors but also I’d argue the entire prologue since it basically fucks up the entirety of Jurassic prehistory. Rebirth is the Quetz, titanosaurs, Drex and Mutadons.
I’m counting the hybrids on here because I feel they fall into the same territory. They are legitimately monsters.
I meant that we can have a design close to the animal and a design that looks monstrous for each animal. Like T rex, it would be awesome to have both the accurate rex and the movie rex
People who want an accurate version can use that version while people who want something more goofy and outlandish can use that one
The indominus is a hybrid wtf you bringing that up for
Yeah nah if you bring hybrids to a conversation about accuracy, you've lost any sense of legitimacey for me
Im done here
Bringing hybrids into a convo about accuracy is crazy
Bringing behaviours into a convo about design accuracy is crazy
I hope so
Im saying the franchise has stepped away from accuracy as a whole from designs, to behaviors to creating literal monsters but whatever. Yall don’t like the designs, idc. 👍 anyway
Except has it?
Has it though?
JW had Apato and ngl Mosa isn’t horrible it’s just a bit too crocodilian
FK had Carno and juvi Allo
JWD brought fully feathered animals to the movies, even though some of them were questionable. Quetz however
JWR’s new real animal designs were pretty good anatomically besides Spino, and even then it still had the square sail and paddle tail
Omg this fucking line "this is jurassic park" the designs of the species from jurassic park were all paleo accurate for the time (excluding dilo). It's jw who made them mosters completally forgetting that jurassic park species designers tried to make the animals as realistic and accurate as possible
Exactly, like, the only problem with spino is that it's a bit bulkier and the head shape is wrong but it's not a monster at all
Didn't they make the T-Rex look a little bit more inaccurate (skull shape and size) to make it intimidating and the velociraptors are not velociraptors
Velociraptors in jurassic park are deinonychus but Spielberg liked the name Velociraptor more, even tho, Velociraptor isn't mongoliensis or how that is spelled in jp film but anthiropodus (deinon scientific name) or how tf that is spelled lmao
Omg womp womp ffs the series hasn’t strived for accuracy in a long time. Moving on.
"Womp womp"💀
This is a franchise about DINOSAURUS, if you want monsters go thirst over Monsterverse ffs
Or I could just watch Jurassic World, Fallen Kingdom, Dumbinion or Rebirth 💅
Yeah Im glad Im no longer taking you seriously
And who are you and why should I care?
Also noting that jp velociraptor has terrible posture
"New msg in species redesign, i hope its a thoughtfull explenation on why a certain species redesign is nee-"
Just some goobers with D Tier ragebait
Honestly the part where indominus rex was brought up in some accuracy thing is just
I can't explain in word
Its a choice certainly
Absurd?
"How do I make ANY of my points invalid in one sentence? Oh yeah! I'll mention a completely fictional hybrid!"
Didn't they also say sum abt the d rex?
Yup
Also a completely fictional mutated hybrid
Same for Mutadon
Like yeah jp/jw franchise has many inaccurate designs but please atleast meantion the one of actually real species
Like I dunno
AQUILOPS
Titanosaurus doesnt count, thats been invalid for years
"11 tons" moments before a kaiju appears
Fr
I heard it and went "Bullshit"
At the LEAST 30 tonnes
At most around 90
Considering large sauropods anyway
D rex size consitency vs 11 ton titanosaurus
D Rex Size Consistency vs the Average "Its Jurassic Park" argument
Keep hating JWE Acro, you're doing gods work
Lmao it is what it is 🤷🏽♂️
OMG PEAK USERNAME
I HATE JWE ACRO TOO
And jwe rex
Look how cool it could have been
With this pattern too for the female and the pattern the female has now for the male
Ong
Ong?
Cryo redesign too lwk
Like, everyone glazes this thing but it's so obsolete and its eyes look made of purple plastic
Its pattern and colors too suck
It looks terrible
Skins were also mid
I used it twice in jwe2
I like cryo but it's far from perfect
Is it just me or JWE acro just looks a repurposed tyrannosaur they changed last minute
Like it’s got all the tyrannosaur features
EXACTLY
IT DOESN'T HAVE ACRO FEATURES
It has generic tirannosaurid features
And IT'S UGLY
Kill it.
I gotta ask but does the frontier giga need a redesign? Like to me it looks good and all but i've heard that its apparently inaccurate, personaly can't easily see the difference between frontiers giga and the real one that much myself. (mostly hearing its inaccurate from reddit so take it with a grain of salt)
For me it needs a retexture and maybe an arms change. The textures are really obsolete
Retexture to make it fit a more modern understanding of it or just to make it look better compared to the more recent species?
To make it better compared to the more recent species
Btw, something like this would be much more accurate, jwe giga it's "close" but not really, it could be so much better
Honestly seeing the frontier animal compared to the real one makes me understand how its not that accure
All those small details that makes the game version feel very strange
I always hated the head
I can see that very well
Its like
Hard tonexplain for me
Kinda box like maybe?
The posture too feels a bit too upright and not straight forward
That like jaw line goes veryyy far back in my opinion
Like just slightly shortening that could help very much
I just noticed too that it looks malnurished
Give my homeboy a sandwhich
Something like this would be very peak
Agreed
bump
Acrocanthosaurus needs improvement i agree 👍 💯
Charcaradontosaurus Too Needs more chunk to be interesting.
Not only more chunk
Sorry if this is almost a month late lmao but they didnt fix the eye color yall
Beautiful Photo of MY second favorite species in JWE3.🤩
The eyes of the Cryolo do remind me of certain Gecko species that are Active at Night.
I Just forgot which species it was?
i think the eye color is very cool
its not something objectively bad that needs to be changed
idk if this is the one you were talking about but i googled it and found this pic and its very pretty
That's the one yes, Cyolophosaurus might need night vision In order to see in arctic darkness for months during its time , so it's possible that it may have had night vision i do appreciate the creative liberties Frontier have created for this species.
The problem in my opinion isn't the color but how they made the eye look almost fake
Compared to other species
Gargoyle gecko ❤️
Nah
I would have liked to see diamorphisms though like in some birds and reptiles.
i think it looks fine
i dont see the issue
just looks like the spinosaurus eye but purple
I see it flat, I don't know, take deinonychus new design or idk even alberto
Their eyes look some what alive
plz
But what about his male parts?
I understand about the raptors, but allowing the variants of the other dinosaurs from the other films to also have their own color palette would be amazing.
And in the case of the triceratops and parasaurus, I would just like the male to undergo changes in its model.
I mean you never specified dimorphism so 😭
yes
idc what ppl think, that male nasute design is not better then the model ingame
I don't care about the Nasutoceratops specifically either; I only included it as evidence and to show its difference. What I really want is the Parasaurus, Trick, and for variants to have their own color palettes.
The male Nasuto in game is just the canon female Nasuto
They can’t redesign movie/canon species
They should redesign the male parasaurolophus
That thing sucks
Maybe something like we saw in TLW Elvis
I ask this of the men.
Cuz irrc it’s an Jurassic game and they probably can’t make up their own design for canon species
But they did that with ceratopsians.
Guys if yall are gonna talk about movie species, please talk about it in the other channel. I’ll say it again, this post is for Frontier species not movie species
Fair
Also
haha embed failure
Why do you guys call everything Elvis
Even cryo
It's lowkey cringe just like when people call the jp3 raptor quilliam
lowk feels cringe when the whole fandom gives a dinosaur a name in general
for example calling the giga zeb feels so weird to me
Anyways off topic
If only they redesigned acro💔
I like JWE acro
But yeah it could use a touch up
Simple redesigns would have been cool
When they dissing your goat but they lowk right
If they don’t redesign acro, I’m gonna take a flight to the UK, go to Cambridge, go inside Frontier Headquarters and kill John Frontier

Omg yes pls
LMAO
Acro won't happen anymore unfortunately. I just hope that Liopleurodon and Carcharodontosaurus get redesigned..
Uhh, sorry man, I already did it because they didnt redesign Archeonithomimus…. Sorry
Hes apparently be succeeded by Johnny Frontier
After that its Jonathan Frontier
Pretty sure his plans are to redesign Carcharadontosaurus
Hes gotta stay
That better be true or I’ll kill the frontier bloodline
Carchar design worse than Acro
After that its onto the women, Jane Frontier, Janey Frontier, Jazzy Frontier
Jonathan is our last hope
Oops misread it
Would something like this model from Prehistoric Kingdom be better than Frontier’s original design
Anything would be better than frontier's design
^
Literally leagues better than what we have
Sooooo, liopleurodon just got announced as a free species, yall hoping it gets the deinonychus treatment?
Absolutely
If it doesn't I will be so disappointed
It’d be nice but I’m really not expecting it
Hey Park Managers,
Update 1.2.8 is officially LIVE, and the genetic codes for both the Dracorex and the Liopleurodon have been delivered to your parks at no additional cost!
Once you've settled your new species in, make sure to keep your eyes on our channels. Our next Free Update Showcase is happening this Wednesday 3rd June, where we’ll b...
aw man, no redesign
Tbf were we REALLY expecting a redesign
I kinda figured we wouldn’t get one, and tbh if they did it would basically be Kronosaurus
Trust me, I wanted one, but its not the end of the world for me, Ill just use Kronosaurus
