Building Jurassic Park with Scientifically Accurate Dinosaurs

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to run a Jurassic Park style zoo with scientifically accurate dinosaurs? Well, I played this game called Prehistoric Kingdom and got a good taste of that experience. I spared no expense, as I went bankrupt in the game, like, 5 times. The dinosaurs in this game are based on what we currently know about them, and they look stunning.

dinosaur combat is coming to the game, Prehistoric Kingdom is still in it's beta phase, and from what I know, one of the next few updates will introduce dinosaur breakouts.

[@TidewaterTeddy]

Ah, ok, awesome!! Looking forward to seeing that down the line! I’ll definitely make an updated review when they implement those new features!

[@SamuRhino2023]

Can’t wait to see how T.rex will dispatch its opponents.

[@Kyoryu_Unshaken]

@@SamuRhino2023 Hopefully its not just one bite then the fights over but idk

[@legthieff]

@@TidewaterTeddy A way to do it with more dinosaurs and more features is modded Jurassic World Evolution 2. There’s a modpack called “Liv’s paleo overhaul” which allows you to make nearly any creature in the game a scientifically accurate look and they look fantastic too.

[@withlessAsbestos]

@@TidewaterTeddyYeah, they’ll even be able to break out eventually.

[@phone_gal]

to be fair; this game is in early development, so i give it some leeway on its many issues for the time being if this was a full release though id be voicing the same frustrations, but rn the game is technically early access

[@TidewaterTeddy]

True, true. I like this game a lot and want to see it succeed, but I want to be honest with everyone about the progress so far. I think it may be some time (possibly years) before they fix the AI issues.

[@cheemdogman]

hopefully this game will be the scientifically accurate JWE, but wont be able to combat it

[@goofyguy_11]

Hi there, i am here to say that prehistoric kingdom is in a REALLY early stage, every complain in this video will be added later on, you can check the trello roadmap for more info.

[@TidewaterTeddy]

I’ll definitely check out that road map! I still like the game a lot, but like you said, it is still in development. Whenever they add the improved gameplay mechanics, I’ll make an updated review. Tysm for your comment!! 🙏

[@PetrWaldmann-gb8fp]

Hey, it's still in early acces, and when you see how they improve with each update, you can tell that these guys actually have love and passion for the game thy're making, and they listen to the comunity, Also just a little thing I wanted to say is, that while PK is going for scientific accuracy, some dinos, like the t.rex, tarbosaurus, dryosaurus and even the mammoths are stialized, they say it themselves in the dlc artbook. Anyway good video, you earned a like

[@TidewaterTeddy]

Hey, thanks for your comment (and the like)! 🙏 yes, this game is still in early access and gets better with every update. I definitely see what you mean about the stylization. I guess you cannot get away from stylization completely, since our knowledge is limited. Makes me think about how outdated Walking with Dinosaurs looks vs Prehistoric Planet, although WWD took some creative liberties from the get go.

[@TheDarkPanther0]

In future updates there will be ALOT more to help make the animals feel alive, so yea there will be combat between animals and stuff like that

[@TidewaterTeddy]

Yeah, looking forward to future updates! I’ll definitely post an updated review whenever they add the improved AI and combat elements!!

[@_NguyenManhDung-vb8ep]

The only JP1 dino that we need now is Gallimimus since we already had T-Rex, Dilophosaurus, Velociraptor, Brachiosaurus, Parasaurolophus and Triceratops.

[@LotBFOC2]

2:26 - well... Ther ,,Raptors" could be more based on Deinonychus

[@TidewaterTeddy]

You’re right. The JP and JW raptors are actually based on Deinonychus. Michael Crichton, the author of Jurassic Park, based his raptors on Deinonychus but decided to call them Velociraptors instead. Source: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deinonychus#Cultural_significance

[@malekahmed7960]

Dinosaur combat, breakouts, guest eating and all that juicy stuff is coming eventually don't worry. They just had their first challenge mode implemented before it was just a sandbox where nothing happened.

[@TidewaterTeddy]

I'm looking forward to all the future updates! I bought this game back in 2022 when it was first released, and I remember the sandbox mode. That's the main reason why I didn't play it again until this year. Challenge mode is way more fun! Thanks for your comment!

[@sinoceratops189]

the game is probably set to officialy release in maybye a year or 2, so they will add so much stuff to it. it is planned to add all the things that are missing rn. and for me this game beats jwe2 so hard (ofc the complete version)

[@TidewaterTeddy]

I like this game a lot, and I want to promote it, but I also want to be honest about the current gameplay issues. I’m really looking forward to the full release, but like you said, it may take them a couple years to fix the AI. I’ll definitely make an updated review down the line.

[@TheMightyN]

Hollywood's Dilophosaurus weren't scientifically inaccurate, it was a juvenile and scientist have acknowledged, plausibly, this animal having extra accessories. Animals today can excrete or project bodily fluid for effective purposes then maybe Dilophosaurus had spitting abilities too. And with the chance there might be feathers, could adorn a neck frill as well.

[@TidewaterTeddy]

That’s definitely true. There is fossil evidence of venomous dinosaurs like Sinornithosaurus. However, as far I know, Dilophosaurus didn’t have neck frills or venomous spit. That was something that Michel Crichton, the author of Jurassic Park, added for drama and plot purposes. I still think JP Dilophosaurus are cool, though. I chalk up JP dinos being unrealistic to them having frog DNA mixed in with their regular DNA.

[@TheMightyN]

@@TidewaterTeddy But it isn't hereditary for some animals to secrete or vomit bodily fluids, as a means for offense or defense, is my point. The _Dilophosaurus_ doesn't need to be venomous to spit at things. Though we cannot strongly be sure if Dilophosaurus had a feathered frill we can observe some modern birds with these traits. Whether these "cowls" function to impress mates or to scare off predators and rival is left to the imagine how they attribute some non-avian dinosaur like Dilophosaurus. Also, the venomous Sinornithosaurus has since been debunked. Unless, there is new information to reinforce the theory, then it might sometime until unearth a venomous dinosaur.

[@TidewaterTeddy]

@@TheMightyN I get your point, and it’s a good one. But I think we can agree that Hollywood took creative liberties with Dilophosaurus. Technically, even the more serious dinosaur media like Prehistoric Planet and even this game have taken creative liberties because we’re still filling in a lot of blanks. And, yes, many modern animals can and do spit, vomit, etc. and have elaborate displays to impress or intimidate. It’s just, for me, I prefer the creative liberties be based on the fossil record and current knowledge of the species. You’re right about Sinorthosaurus. However, it’s quite likely we’ll discover a venomous dinosaur, although (like you said) it will probably be a while. Thank you for your contributions.

[@TheMightyN]

@@TidewaterTeddy From a retrospect plenty of dino-nerds tend to unleash their malice towards this animal; if not for its "bad" design then scientific inaccuracies. But many don't realize this decision for the frill was made by Paleontologists, at least inadvertently. It was originally intended for the animal to inflate giant air sacs according to John Gurche (he never specified this detail with Rick Carter though.) While the sacs were put in the final cut they were reduced in size in placement of the frill. But in above it all, the recent medium is far in between any creative liberties. By abiding to the latest scientific research from fossil record, and the demand for accurate dinosaurs ever growing, drowns the room from creative licenses to flourish. It's why, when creative liberties are treated in Paleo-Media, it's handled through color designs. So no, restricting those principles based on the fossil record alone is an inconsistent variable, if not, suffocating. You saw how this has been for both _Dilophosaurus_ and _Velociraptor_ after Jurassic Park--I think ignoring "save faced" dinosaurs could do more good than harm in understanding the natural world. Kudos to Prehistoric Planet with experimenting such concepts but it failed when hiring the wrong Paleoartist. Regardless, if Paleontologists too rely on nature to understand ecological behavior prehistoric lifeforms, we cannot deny this source because we think one idea is sound. May be Dilophosaurus had a feathered frill or maybe it could spit or inflate air sacs. Who knows? That's why we speculate.

[@thedragonthatlovesskittles7132]

I want to play this, but my laptop dies everytime I spawn a dinosaur

[@TidewaterTeddy]

I have seen Steam reviews of this game that have mentioned how resource intense it is on some computers. That’s something else that will need to be ironed out.

​@@TidewaterTeddythat's awesome 👌🏻 I'm hoping, too, and also, console release. Maybe why they don't attack cause they don't want to be that violent but come on if they want to be accurate then T rex is gonna eat you.

[@Daisythepage]

3:17 yeah the game is not finished yet! I’m pretty sure they’re planning to add all of this aswell as baby dinosaurs and facility workers! (I believe they’re also planning to add facilities like gift shops and restaurants much like planet zoo!)

[@TidewaterTeddy]

Yup! They have plans for all of that! In fact, they already have gift shops and restaurants in the game, so that's a plus! They will likely be adding staff and baby dinosaurs this year (2024). Thanks for your comment!

[@lolboi-j1n]

Dude the game is not done yet

[@TidewaterTeddy]

You’re right, but I bought this game back in spring of 2022. It’s been 2 years now, and I’d like to see them prioritize the gameplay elements I mentioned, rather than adding more dinosaurs. Also, I like this game a lot and want to promote it, but I also want to be honest with everyone about the current issues. It may be another 2 years before they finish this game.

[@lolboi-j1n]

Ok thanks fo replying

[@MatthewLarios]

Well if you wanna recreate Jurassic park I suggest just playing Jurassic world evolution 2 even though the dinosaurs in that game are the genetically modified ones that we see in the movies and shows they still can fight they can die they can eat humans they can eat other dinosaurs but they are unrealistic

[@TidewaterTeddy]

That’s true. I’ve seen some clips from the jw evolution games showing breakouts and chaos. I heard you can even get a Megalodon now. I think Prehistoric Kingdom is still a solid game, but it’s still in development, so it needs some time to get where it needs to be.

[@Blackclaw1000]

prehistoric Kingdom in general is exellent You must also know they are not just some triple A Developers, that can make a Complete Game in only 2 Years after Planning. You also must know that Prehistoric Kingdom also has a Very Veeery Long History that reaches Back in 2013/14 and dramacily changed since this. The State you see. is the result of replanning and reorganising with a still small team of few People from over the globe. who made this... In the 2 years, you heard probally the first time ever. And I just they Doing it great ! the Plans of it hold so much Open and it also be Planned to bring Most of the features , who are missing, Until End of EA what is at all Planned for Later 2025. Until End of the Year for example there are Planned more exiting Mammals and even baby Dinosaurs the first time ever in Dinomedia since JWE is strictly saying no because Lore reasons they not fully understand and are for them to much Complicated. PK itself in on the best Way, then in the Next Update there will be 2 new Dinosaurs in 3 Genera Ankylosaurus, Apatosaurus and Brontosaurus. And every Update brings also new features and fixes in the game But how they would say? its done when its done And its better they work more Longer than normal people would to. The Only right way to make this great!

Dude, DUDE. OK. the game is in EARLY ACCESS. the game IS NOT DONE YET. And they will eventually fix all the "issues" you seem to have. The game is also meant to be more than just "oh, I like this game so I can get bozos eaten by dinosaurs, and watch dino fight to the big die". Not that there's anything wrong with that. But PK is more of an expression of creativity than destruction.

[@TidewaterTeddy]

Hi, I mentioned that this game is early access in my video. However, that does not excuse it from making necessary improvements, some of which are basic mechanics. This game was released in early access in 2022, so they have had plenty of time to add them.

[@SuperSonicSauropod2401]

@TidewaterTeddy I understand that, but I feel like you're too harsh on an early access game with plans to add all the things you mention it not having. I think you should have at least mentioned they do indeed plan of adding dino fights, attacks on guests, and breakouts. Also, they do have fairly limited funding to my knowledge, so they're also working with what they have. Also, dino fights and features like that are not what the game is made for, which is why they are focusing on building mechanics in most updates.
