Please ad water Dinos like mosasaurus and plesiosaurus

This idea won't work at all and contributes nothing to the state of the game, if they couldn't add enhancements without breaking everything about arena what makes you think aquatics wouldn't make the game's code shatter into a million pieces and make it unplayable for weeks?
obsidian stirrup
I agree plus it seems like it’d be very difficult to actually incorporate well
I completely disagree with adding aquatics to the game
fleet swan
Yeah sorry this is way too big of a task for ludia
Conceptually it's fun, but realistically it would take years of nonstop work and be super glitchy
cinder plover
Yeah sorry this is way too big of a task for ludia
They recently added new mechanisms for jwtg so they could do here as well
obsidian stirrup
Yeah though even then I can’t understand how even it would work
fleet swan

JWTG is a vastly different scenario

Who knows maybe they’re working for it since a long time
fleet swan
They've been releasing updates, haven't they?
I believe we got one just last week. If that's the case, they are not working on aquatics at all
obsidian stirrup
The way jwtg works it is different to jwa the way it works there logically makes sense in a way however it wouldn’t work as well in jwa
cinder plover
Well the main thing is they said now twice aquatics are a possibility in community updates so it seems like they could be possible
fleet swan
They're not coming
obsidian stirrup
Likely not
cinder plover
They're not coming
They also said we won’t get anything beyond super hybrids and look where we are
fleet swan
The game needs to pump out material fast to satisfy the consumers and the executives, aquatics are way too much of a long game
fleet swan
They also said we won’t get anything beyond super hybrids and look where we are
When was that?
cinder plover
When was that?
In the very early days of the game
obsidian stirrup
Early days
cinder plover
So before Jamcity
Long before
obsidian stirrup
That’s a while ago too long ago for modern standards and policies
fleet swan
It's really just a matter of ease. Ludia can very very easily make Apexes or mega hybrids or bugs or modern wolves. They cannot easily make aquatics

Who knows . Maybe that’s the reason why we lack new creatures because they’re working on something big
obsidian stirrup
Hopefully new commons
fleet swan
Then you better buckle up because if it's aquatics it might be a year before 2.23
obsidian stirrup
Yeah
fleet swan
Trust me it's literally just a creature dump
Not any new arenas or aquatics or stuff like that
obsidian stirrup
I personally just want new early game things and rebalances and qol changes
fleet swan
Unfortunately that's as unlikely as aquatics
obsidian stirrup
I think it’s a bit more likely but even changes to the meta would be nice to me
And they did say that this year would be a good year for commons however I don’t think they’ll hold that true
fleet swan
We'll get maybe 2-3

You mean the compies who break the game?

You mean the compies who break the game?
They’re not breaking the game . They’re much easy to handle though
fleet swan
They are also a mechanic that already exists in jwa and is far more simplistic than adding an entire new arena system and however they want to work aquatics
untold spire
They’re not breaking the game . They’re much easy to handle though
Tbh they seem to rely on rng when it comes to healing so I guess they aren’t always that op.

Just spamming attacks handles them pretty well
untold spire
And the fact that in JWTG you face bots, therefore the battles are easier.
obsidian stirrup
Exactly
cinder plover
Honestly balance changes aren’t making things better in anyway since there’s always a new strong creature or some op mechanic so they can go with aquatics since it wouldn’t effect the game more
Well if the massive balance changing would be helpful. The last few creature changes didn’t really make things better for any of them so even if we get a rebalance it could be a massive disappointment . Also aquatics are canon so they have to be in a game based on the franchise
No but it means it will get added eventually
Anyways I’m more worried about that if there will be a massive rebalance things wouldn’t get better because it will make many things completely broken or completely useless. Not like I’m against a rebalance but there has to be some good changes
fleet swan
We mean thoughtful reworks, not taking a bad creature and putting 100 extra attack or a few resistances on
fleet swan
No but it means it will get added eventually
By this logic there should be around 50 new creature variants coming to the game
Depends on how far they go with variants, if they add stuff the the lost world pteranodon or prosthetic arm baryonyx we could see a lot more
cinder plover

Yes but it could end up being bad and disappointing
fleet swan
An effort by Ludia is at least better than straight up dropping the idea of creature reworks in favor of a system that will destroy the game
cinder plover

I wasn’t talking about variants but canon species wich almost every creature has made it in so aquatics will probably make it in as well at some point. And yes probably not all variants will make it in . However if they’re have a different model from their in game versions wich quetzalcoatlus and ovi gen 2 showed will get added at some point
fleet swan
Technically the only canon aquatic is mosa so why use that argument when only 1 of them is in the franchise
cinder plover

Because as jpb and jwtg showed mosasaurus will most likely be not the only aquatic . They always added other species later . There’s also nothosaurus
fleet swan
Aquatics would be a fun idea if they wouldn't end up taking several months to get ready, probably break the game when they do come, and just be another meta to chase after
cinder plover

We see . All I’m saying is we probably get them at some point
fleet swan
I personally don't think so since jpb and jwtg are much different kinds of games and are a lot simpler to add separated areas to
They don't have to worry about a map and how the creatures will be distributed and you'd have to consider whether or not aquatics will be integrated into current systems like sanctuaries, alliance championships, and isla events
I just don't think Ludia is willing or capable of doing now and the game probably doesn't have enough left in it to last until they do
Yeah no aquatics are just too much work
They can be added but they are like the last option
Basically expect anything that can fly or walk before them
untold spire

Laughs in ceratosaurus and corythosaurus
cinder plover
Laughs in ceratosaurus and corythosaurus
They will probably get added at some point too because they’re also famous species outside of jp canon
untold spire
People have been requesting them for years and Ludia never showed any signs of listening.
fleet swan
Yeah if they're willing to deny those guys for 5 years mosa can wait an extra decade
zinc fulcrum
No we don't 😬
obsidian stirrup
No we don't 😬
Fr tho
obsidian stirrup
Yeah I cringe at “water dinos” but I just chose to ignore it
fleet swan
You could always add scientifically accurate spinosaurus and penguins
obsidian stirrup
Or any other semi aquatic creature
worthy bridge
Scientifically accurate spin could be with the other Dino’s on land
obsidian stirrup
Scientifically accurate spin could be with the other Dino’s on land
They would all work the same way it would just be another variant like the gen 1 2 and in the case of scorp 3
worthy bridge
Imma post my accurate spino in #creature-suggestions (btw it’s actually sigli)
untold spire
It’s marine reptiles/creatures
Yeah, I pointed it out in the OP’s previous suggestion but it seems like they didn’t listen.
jovial lagoon
JWA is just not the type of game to have aquatics
fleet swan
Even if we ignore the fact that ludia/Jamcity would need to add a whole new arena for aquatics,there would still be a pretty big problem, aquatics being restricted to lakes,rivers etc.
This would be a huge issue for the people that don't live near big Bodies of water.it would be like geo-locked dinos but even worse considering Jamcity is now in control Wich means that they're probably gonna put in
Extremely expensive offers in order to get some aquatic equivalent to a legendary or even a unique(as we all know Jamcity and ludia can't ever have too much money) .Wich would once again make a huge gap in between f2p and p2w players,just like in the arena .
fleet swan
Aquatics still shouldn't be added but I think most people agree they should be capable of spawning anywhere
cinder plover

Well one idea I had would be that we get lagoons that contain aquatics across the map without any restrictions

Have you looked at the dire wolf model
Or have you paid attention to the amount of bugs that are in this game
They can hardly manage one roster of dinos with the pre-existing features. How on earth do they secretly work on a super expensive update loaded with like 10+ animations, arenas, dozens of moves, designs, mechanics, and overhauls

Game companies usually work on many things at once

They are not competent enough coders for this
cinder plover
They are not competent enough coders for this
We’ll see
But what if aquatics are the reason we’ve got a reduction of new species this year since they’re working on a big feature?
fleet swan
They added enhancements and affliction so I think those were the focus
jovial lagoon
The aquatic only worth it in the game would be the mosasaurus
fleet swan
Then Jamcity would have to deal with the monumentally stupid decision to make everything for aquatics only to add just one
It would be like only adding trex
jovial lagoon
I mean I feel like mosasaurus would be the only one making money
fleet swan
I'm sure not many of the top people know what a miragaia, dsungaripterus, or pulmonoscorpios were before playing jwa but they still use dscorp
Like I said before doing all this work for just one creature would be a terrible idea and plenty of other aquatics like megalodon and elasmosaurus would draw in people

yeah i agree

Ludia could brand it and make it op tho

It needs other stuff to fight though, who's going to pay for mosa mirror matches all day?
They will pay for flying Mosasaurus vs Ultimasaurus!!!

There’s not much aquatics to work with unless they introduce the lesser know ones, or modern ones
fleet swan
Well that would always be the case and the same is true for land animals, there's hundreds of prehistoric marine creatures to pick from
fierce loom
Then they'd start hybridizing.... the thought of what they'd come up with gives me a full body shudder....
fleet swan
I'm sure they'll have lots of cute hybrids like opabinia+xiphactinus
fierce loom
They'll make a hybrid with bear wolf albert and turtle AND mosasaur... lol
fleet swan
Nah they'll just copy n paste the mosa+megalodon hybrid from Jwtg
