Deinonychus vs Velociraptor

[kjbivins]

With the release day quickly approching I wanted to share an evil idea I've been thinking of. Have two pens connected to eachother, in one create Deinonychus, in the other Velociraptors. Then destroy the barrier between the two packs and watch as a war breaks lose for my guests to watch.

It might be too soon to talk about this, but any thoughts or ideas for varations on this?

Beef out both of the packs and assure that neither side has an advantage

Based on some ingame footage i've seen of both animals fighting eachother, I would assume it would end in a draw (if both side has the same amount of animals). They would circle, hiss and lunge at eachother, draw a bit of blood, then give up as neither can win.

However, if the groups would team up to take down one animal at a time, this would be a totally different story (and a more interesting thing to watch). Then the fight could go either way.

Now if this was based on reality, then it would not even be a match. The Velociraptors would be running for their lives and get massacred, no doubt (it would be like a bunch of Jack Russel terriërs trying to take on a pack of timber wolves). They would be way to fragile and small to even take on or hurt a single Deinonychus. It would all come down to the harder bite, and not the claws, as they (unlike some people think) are used by both animals for puncturing and subduing, not slashing and disembowling.

Either way I'll be happy. I tend to name my animals in zoo games like this, and with the ability to change their skin colors I will be eaily able to tell them apart. The point I'm getting it is that it will be interesting no matter how the pack wars turn out, which individuals survive and gain more fame.

There is in-game footage of both of those guy fighting eat other and it looked like a even match. What I REALLY want to see is Dilophosaurus vs Velociraptor. Jurassic World literally teased the idea when the dilophosaurs hologram trolled that one raptor when it was chasing the humies.

If the Dilophosauruses(?) can live together as a "pack" then you sir just started a three way pack war. Dilophosaurus vs Deinonychus vs Velociraptor packs.

Question - Are the raptors in this game going to be the smaller sized ones that we've found are more common, or are they going all in with the Utahraptors they used in the movies?

Pretty much all Utahraptor sizes.

I wonder if they're gonna let us control the size of the dinosaurs, or if there even are different sizes.
Also it'd be neat if they had a more in-depth dna splicing thing where we could give the dinos different traits. More or less agressive, smarter or faster, that sort of thing.
Once I had a good sized park running, I'd totally go full 'Jurassic World' and make a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up monster that escapes and eats everything else.

I do know messing with the DNA can make a dinosaur deadlier(atk), tougher (DiseaseResistant/Defensively maybe both) Live longer as well as mess with their coloration.
