The Isle is not meant to be scientifically accurate.
You play fake dinos that were cloned or w/e on an island with buildings.
You meet dinos and eat dinos that your dino species never lived alongside.

well they can atleast recreate something that actually lived on this planet and not made up right?

it doesn't look accurate because its a modified clone, just like in jurassic park. if you want to play a realistic dinosaur i would say the allo, giga, and sucho all look accurate to their real life counterparts.

You're right, it's not a Utahraptor. It's meant to be the Jurassic Park Velociraptor.

You're not on drugs, don't worry. The utah is heavily, heavily influenced by JP. I'm not sure about the Rex either and how much it has JP influences in the model, but everything other than Utah seem pretty accurate.

What? none of that makes sense. If you mean its accurate to very inaccurate version of velociraptor from JP then sure. Like others have mentioned the "Utah raptor" model in the isle currently is accurate to another dinosaur (neither the utah or velociraptor). The Developers will probably rename it later. The Velo is accurate to the in game velo model in terms of size, probably need feathers, not too sure. Utahs from what ive read are 50/50 on having feathers, kinda like rex, where babies might have had feathers but adult definitely didnt have them.

Every single dinosaur is fake. Nothing is real, and they can hardly even be considered animals.

They were created by humans in a laboratory, closer to monsters than animals.

The game is getting mutants and plants that will kill you later.

The description and the art of the store page and the screen art that you first see when firing up the game should have been 3 giant red flags that the game doesn't go for or give a sh*t about realism and accuracy.

yeh exactly

Come on guys it seems like a genuine question, some replies seem a bit harsh.

That being said it's already been answered, so no need to add more fuel to the fire.

Also, @mylegs

yea that's what I meant. The JP raptor is referenced as "Velociraptor" in the JP universe, hence why I said "Jurassic Park Velociraptor". The Velo ingame is pretty accurate to the real life counterpart, sans the feathers of course. It's 2019, I doubt anyone still believes that Velo was some 10 foot tall lizard monster :P (actually I heard they based it off of the utahraptor but its name didn't sound as menacing as "velociraptor")

The Utah used to look somewhat accurate I guess until the remodel where we have today's utah (not to mention the old old utah sounds vs the ones now)

Also I'm curious, what is the real life dinosaur that the current Utah is accurate to? The current one seems very similar to the JP raptor, though the JP raptor does change in appearances throughout the JP series and even more so in JW:

The biggest difference I see is the eye size, but apart from that it seems pretty similar

The old utah was based off of reconstructions that became outdated when full skeletons of Utahraptor were uncovered. This happened well after they had made the old model, and they had already decided that they were going to remodel it to better fit the abilities they want it to have. This ended up being the current model that isn’t based off of any real dinosaurs but is instead based off of the jp raptor.
They have also stated that because it is no longer based on a real dinosaur that it will be getting a name change at some point, so it will no longer be a Utahraptor.
