Dinosaurs aren't cool anymore

It'd be difficult to pull off mechanically.
To make a good dino game you need to get a team of paleontologists to lead a group of game designers to make accurate movements, environments, etc.

Otherwise you'd just have to jump into fantasy which some people probably won't like.

says the fag

Whatever fag.

If you've got a good PC and don't mind early access then there is Ark: Survival Evolved. Still beta but secs are still working.

Orion Dino horde

>good PC
don't they spend more time optimizing the game for low-end rigs than high-end anyway?

>ywn be able to go on a comfy virtual hunting trip to shoot dinosaurs with a WWII AT rifle
Father, why have you forsaken me?

Ever since dinos were discovered to have been feathered they weren't cool anymore.

I just want a new dino crisis that has the Re6 controls, has nice action sequences in open areas and tense indoor segments.

I think OP wants good games.

The fuck nigga? They became even cooler.

>it's the year of our lord
You mean our Lord Raptor Jesus, right? Have you heard the good word?

...

This

What makes it bad? Other than it being very grindy.

Nigger, I'm 30 and still love dinosaurs.

When I was in 3rd grade I have Jurassic Park toys, curtains, sheets, the soundtrack, etc.

Jurassic World made me go buy a Mercedes and Samsung phone.

Dinosaurs are and always have been terrible.

When I was little, people would ask me, "what's your favorite subject in school?"
I would respond saying "science," whereupon the universal response to that was, "Oh, so do you like dinosaurs and stuff?"

Fuck off, what the hell makes people think that science = dinosaurs? Physics, Chemistry, and Technology in general are god-tier in comparison. I think I've had people when I was little buy me dinosaur toys and shit because they thought I liked them despite insisting that I thought they were the lamest part of science, along with biology.

It's all the fucking fault of you people. You people are the reason I could never learn about electricity and subatomic particles in the 3rd grade and instead had to listen to some retarded documentaries about your gay-ass dinosaurs.

Fuck that asshole who was the technical adviser for the dinosaurs on the original Jurassic Park.

He couldn't read or write and had his team do all the work.

I've been playing ark with a friend on our own servers and it's pretty cool.

I hate how you lose all your stuff when you die though. Killed a T-Rex with a bow and arrow but lost everything anyway

How the fuck can anybody say dinosaurs aren't cool. THESE THINGS WALKED THE FUCKING EARTH, THEY WERE 5 STORIES TALL AND 50 FEET LONG. THEY COULD SWALLOW YOU, YOUR MOM, YOUR DAD, AND YOUR SISTER IN ONE BITE. HOW THE FUCK AREN'T THEY COOL?

Waiting for a Dino Crisis remake

Would it be fair to say that if you like dinosaurs you also like dragons and Godzilla? They're all big lizard monsters after all.

>X-Isle is 15 years old
I liked Far Cry but I sure was looking forward to a good dino game.

>why don't people like dinosaurs anymore?
This sadly. Dinosaurs are not the big "thing" anymore so people aren't focusing on dinosaurs. I would've hoped that Jurassic World would've resolved that, but sadly it hasn't. I guess it was just a nostalgia movie and that was in, not drawing in large crowds of new people.

I happened to like Fossil Fighters as a cartoony dinosaur-related game, but I guess it just didn't catch on. They felt like turning it into a psudo-racing game and kill the battle system with the newest ones.

I like dinosaurs, think that dragons are overdone, and never cared for Godzilla.

Part of the problem with your assumption is that a lot of people who like dinosaurs do so because they were real. They were actual living creatures, and you can look at how they worked and how they changed. Trying to equate that to a dragon (lol it flies because magic!) or Godzilla isn't going to give a good comparison.

>it's the year of our lord
>dinosaurs

Saurian got kickstarted, so that might be good

It's even got accurate feathered dinos

>there aren't any good, recent dinosaur games
easy, because western trash make boring dinosaur sims that you cry for and they turn out to be shit.

when an actual fun dinosaur game comes you autists cry "M-MUH REALISM"

The closest thing to a good dinosaur game to EVER come out is dino crisis.
We need a survival horror based around dinosaurs but a little more modern. I want the same feeling I got as a kid when Jurassic park scared the fuck out of me.
that game is fucking garbage lmao

I need help finding a dinosaur game I played once as a kid. I don't think it had anything to do with Jurassic Park, but I might be wrong.

It was an arcade machine, the gameplay was side-scrolling, and you played as a tyrannosaurus rex. You'd attack and get attacked by other dinosaurs as you progressed, and could regain some life by eating them. I think the first level was following a river and fighting a few deinosuchuses. After this, you see raptors running around in the trees behind you and eventually you come out onto land and are attacked by them. I remember they jumped on my T-Rex and I couldn't figure out how to get them off and died. Wasn't doing well to begin with though, the T-Rex got bloodier and slower as you took more damage, and by the end I was barely hobbling.

Man, that was a really cool game.

There was zone with dinosaurs in the world of warcraft

Savage Quest?

youtube.com/watch?v=IY0uCQ9CbEc

I don't remember humans in the game, but yeah, that must be it. Thanks mate.

Who /primalcarnage/ here?

>tfw no dinosaur games

There's one on the 3ds
It's ok

Because dinosaurs are like the zombies of the 90s. Overdone as fuck.

I agree, OP.

I played ARK and I didn't hate it. But it wasn't very interesting to me. Far from good. Someone will have to make a good one. Someday.

Game looks like an amateur youtube poop animation.

>pre alpha

Show me where the t. Rex touched you, user

dinosaurs were more birdlike than lizard like

>tfw your favorite dinosaur game was abruptly abandoned by the dev as soon as he made a few bucks off of it

The Isle took Stomping Grounds' great dino models and made an actual non abandonware game out of it

Really?

The highlight of the game (other than the dinos, of course) was the prisoner system. I fucking loved trapping other players and making them do my bidding.

Is Dino Crisis any good? I always thought it was Resident Evil with dinosaurs but since it's not even close to being popular I figured it was really shitty.

I forgot to ask my question.

Does this game also have a prisoner system?

Okay user, what would make a GOOD dinosaur game? And a remake of an old series isn't an option.

Here's my thoughts;
>Dinosaur hunting game, in which you are stranded on an island/islands that you can explore and roam around in while trying to survive/hunt said dino's/mammals/marine life
>No music, just great ambiance with a prehistoric vibe (distant roars, birds in trees, something similair too; youtube.com/watch?v=DC_-DrExRnk)
>You et attacked or seen you're in trouble. Bigger dinosaurs will one shot you, smaller predators would have to be fended off or you'd have to fight and escape to survive
>Competent A.I with breeding/herd moving and the such
>NO base building (outside of perhaps a camp to rest at and save). You're out hunting dinosaurs not playing your generic survival gam. Youcan find gear in old abandoned research stations and new weapons/map points of interest in said bases
>Good graphics something like pic related.
>A GOOD range of dinosaurs
>A large free to roam map with different biomes (not like fucking ARK. Something thats more 'natural' and less clunky and shoddily put together
>multiplayer so you can hunt with friends. But also PvP so you can kill fellow hunters
>Large range of weapons, camouflage clothing and most importantly an immersive landscape and ambience.

Closest that's got too this is theHunter:Primal. Shame the devs were fucking spastics.

>is dino crisis any good
Only if you have a bag of quarters.

>Grindy
>ARK

I'm one of the alphas on 585 official server and you don't have to grind for anything if you play correctly. The kibble chain for dinosaurs makes the taming timers go down so much. A level 150 Quetz took 6 hours. Jesus Christ that was awful. Or you can tame a level 5 in under a hour. You can also level up from 60-85 in 2 days going around half burnt isle during off hours with a t-rex. Crazy XP for about 10 hours of work. With a platform saddle you can have a buddy with an auto clicker sit on an Anky, pick it up with a ramp and fly around the map and come back home with 30k metal to smelt.
>Base took 3 days with 2 people doing metal runs
>Took 350k metal ingots to make

Didnt they just make s far cry with dinosaurs?
Also monster hunter is filled with dinosaurs

No, currently there are no humans, it's a dino simulator

>tfw goty 2016 has a dinosaur that sharpens and tempers its razor sharp blade tail with magma saliva

Imaginary dinosaurs are truly the best.

T-REX WAS A SCAVENGER AND OPPORTUNISTIC HUNTER.

T-REX COULDN'T RUN.

monster hunter is filled with monsters, you daft twat.

...

Friendly reminder:

>The Tyrannosaurus was a scavenger than couldn't catch prey for itself
>The Spinosaurus ate nothing but fish
>They were all covered in fluffy feathers
>The dinosaurs died out due to rampant homosexuality
>Cloning a dinosaur is impossible
>There will never be a good dinosaur video game besides Scan Command

get orion or prelude when they go on sale for 99 cents

dino wave survival in third and first person views respectively

Id by that for a dollar

Fuck off Jack Horner

>there is no dinosaur game where you can play as a Victorian style hunter
Why live?

...

victorians werent' alive in dinosaur time dummy

oh bro...don't even say that name anymore.

I am still in pain from what Capcom did to the series.

THAT'S PROBABLY NOT TRUE, EVEN THE CHAMPION OF THAT THEORY HAS ABANDONED IT

...

Big ass chickens. Cluck cluck motherfuckers

>The Tyrannosaurus was a scavenger than couldn't catch prey for itself
No, it may not have been a sprinter but it was faster and had a larger brain then the large herbivores in its range. That's all a active hunter needs.
>They were all covered in fluffy feathers
Some were, and most when they were juvenile. Trex for example would have lost any feathers by the time it was fully grown.
>Cloning a dinosaur is impossible
No, but it looks like its going to be easier engineering a chicken flock to slowly de-evolve into something dinosaur like

>Ark

The world needs a survival horror jurassic park game, not one made out of legos. LEGO Jurassic World is the only lego game I've ever played solely to attempt filling the dinogame gap. I hated it tho desu. Not my thing.

Robinson, man. Looks incredible. From the makers of Crysis, the one and only reason I want PSVR.

Just fucking look at this game

Me and my sister/brother in law all enjoy playing offline with all the gathering speeds cranked up to reduce grind

Does anyone remember the name of the game where you take photos of dinosaurs on your jeep?

Pokémon snap

>Ark

Go back to your general on /vg/. No one else likes that game.

The first video game I ever got. The one that started it all.

>under 10
>blow dinozoids in half with exploding shotgunshells
>homing braindrill
>a fucking portable nuke
>the third level
>the music on the first and second level

DUN DUN DUN DUNDUDUDUN

Operation Genesis is THE SHIT

>velociraptors became cooler when they became 3 foot chickens

>large mammals existing at the same time as dinosaurs
Thats impossible dinosaurs are physically superior to mammal furfags in everyway.

Horner was the dumbass who wanted a JP4 about militarized anthropomorphic lizard people.

Love Primal Carnage, but sadly not enough play unless they're role playing or some shit. There are barely any servers as well.

>still no sequel despite the fucking demand
Get on that shit Sid Meier

Fucking this, the game was great a few years back when they had a nice sized population going but now it's a ghost town.
Why must all my favorite online games die?

theHunter: Primal
Fun enough, came out in 2015

The devs fucked up when they originally promised they were going to update the game, but eventually came out with Extinction, which apparently is on PS4 as well. They split the community and damaged their imaged. Sad, they're still updating the game as well.

No Man's Sky looks like it has a lot of alien dinosaurs going by trailers

Dino DDay is quite cool, extremely fun

My dream game is an updated Nanosaur with Vanquish inspired gameplay

>Yutyrannus
That's not how you spell "Verybigchicken"

theres a game like this already. The Hunter Primal or some shit. Just not finished yet or some shit.

>be youngling
>go to big market in big city
>get put in childrens pen every time
>computer
>nanosaurus
>I had the baddest of dinosaur crazes
>other kids almost fought me over the computer

I now live in that city. I wonder if they get mad if I walk in there and push the kids away to see if that old computer and that old game is still there.

>people fell for the feathers meme
don't cuck yourself into those beliefs

gee I wonder who could be behind this scientific discovery

Surprised no one's mentioned Orion: Prelude yet.
Only a few bucks on steam, what have you got to lose?
fuck compies tho

I loved dinosaurs as a kid and I always dreamed of a great dinosaur game.

The raptor game mode in Conker's Bad Fur Day was excellent, and the King Kong video game from the 2000s was also surprisingly good.

"Dinosaurs aren't cool anymore" is bullshit, they'll always be fascinating, awesome creatures. A society that can't respect or understand dinosaurs is full of shit.

Still best game in the genre

The "feathered only when juvenile" is entirely speculative with no evidence at all.
Cloning is always going to be impossible because of dna degradation.

Well meme'd friend

Honestly, I think it's because no one knows if they should give the dinosaurs feathers or not, so they just give up

faggot
