Stop bashing the gameplay, people. SERIOUSLY. The main issue with games these days is that NOBODY CAN TELL A FUCKIN STORY. Don't gun down game developers that are honestly trying to tell a good story, and evolve the gameplay so that it's the most memorable way to experience. Honestly? If it wasn't for Telltale, do you honestly believe we'd get a Jurassic Park story worth mentioning? No. We'd have "OHHHH! We're stuck on an island with dinos! Let's shoot shit until a helicopter picks us up eventually!!!!1"

Kinda annoyed. >l

I REALLY dont think people are bashing anything OR complaining that it wasn't an FPS. I think we all have the opinion that the ability to walk around would allow more immersion into the environment. I'm slightly disappointed BUT I have the utmost confidence that TellTale will make us really enjoy the format they've chosen. And I KNOW the story will be awesome!

Very true, but take a look at the videos posted on youtube, and you'll see all the posts made by idiots complaining about either the graphics or the fact that it's not a FPS. Thankfully, that garbage hasn't happened here, but elsewhere, it's widespread

OH! I thought he was talking about members here. Yeah, there are a lot of haters on YouTube....I don't fully understand why.

Because the gaming nation in general is slowly declining in intelligence. Gaming used to be about the experience, and it used to challenge the mind. Now it's just flashy overrealistic graphics and the same overused FPS engine. Mind you, there are still some great games out there, but the majority of the rest are going to fall into this category. Personally, my hat's off to the group here at Telltale for at least trying something different, especially with Jurassic Park.

That's exactly how I feel.

[robotpo]

People on YouTube hate on everything imaginable, and usually for no apparent reason. 99% of the time their comments are such articulate, intellectually-stimulating fare as "GHEY"!!!

I would invent a complete new genre...
I hope developers from other firms will not read and steal my ideas

The JP game i would like to see is about to survive as a dinosaur (carnivore) hatchling. You have to hide, you have to hunt, you have to drink, you have to defend your nest/ territory against other Dinosaurs. The longer you survive the bigger you get. As an adult you have less enemies. You can threaten other smaller carnivore dinos (to get their prey) or you can hunt bigger herbivores. You can also pair with the opposite gender and give your genes to your offspring (and play with one of them after you are dead).
Social animals like the Raptors can communicate and hunt together. The adult T-Rex has no enemies so no fears.

The game takes place on the Isla Nublar. You can see many known places like the visitor center from the film. There is also a day and night system.

just a little sneak preview of my idea.

i thought of a similar idea a while ago,but it should be just a game mode ,not the whole game because there wouldn't be much story in it now would it? it would work only on Isla Sorna(because dinosaurs are free and in larger numbers) not Nublar(though it could have like a small campaign where you get to play the events from all the movies from the dinosaur point of view) and it shouldn't only feature carnivores as playable dinosaurs;some herbivores like stegosaurus or triceratops would be nice too;maybe even a pterosaur would work nicely;it would make a nice multiplayer addition as well:imagine playing as carnivores vs herbivores or dinosaurs vs humans (something like AvP),even co-op modes;also if you play with the raptors you should be the alpha male and give 'orders' to the other raptors like to follow you,or to charge ,ambush prey stuff like that....anyway Carnivores:CityScape tried something similar but it wasn't that great....it would require a lot of work but it would add great replay value to a Jurassic Park game.

[Turanoceratops]

Well the whole "story" of this game would be to survive. You play as a dinosaur and see it's daily live and fight to survive. It should be something like a "simulation & survival" game.
But you can also put tasks in the game like

• "conquer" the territory of the rivalry compy pack.
• try to kill a full grown Brachiosaurus as a T-Rex
• try to catch a flying pterosaur as Dilophosaurus etc...

The alpha raptor idea is also nice but you have to fight your way to this status.

Edit: During the first Jurassic Park film all dinosaurs went free.

Your ideas are great but like i said it shouldn't be the whole game ,just an additional game mode;more game content is always better....and yes in JP1 all the dinosaurs broke free in the end but there were too few in numbers for this idea to work,and besides from the second movie we learn that they all died because of a hurricane(Hammond tells Malcolm in the beginning)

A reason to make a sequel to the game with Spinosaurus, Stegosaurus & co.

The thing that got me hooked on Jurassic Park (not hooked on dinosaurs in general) was the whole build a park thingie that Hammond had going. I loved JPOG simply because I could make fences and put my dinosaurs in there, making it all neat looking and shit like that.

Would love another park builder game.

Just curious though, how much of the Universal/JP license did Dreamworks have? Obviously they could afford Richard Attenborough for it.. I would love to at least hear his voice in this upcoming game! Oh.. and here's a little taste of Trespasser for those who may not know of it..

Edit: I remember I had surround speakers when this game first came out.. there's nothing like actually hearing a raptor or "something" creeping up behind you when you are wondering around. Again, I hope this upcoming game will have that same effect, though I know there won't be any walking around.

[bloodkiller630]

a poo, another jurassic park operation genesis with battlefield 3 graphics would be amazing, and you could control the dinosaurs, also you would have to eat and sleep just like on the sims 3, and you get better choices of paths and buildings to work on, like on site b, you can actually remake the lost world and JP3

[nanotyrano]

I agree with bloodkiller630
A JP:OG game where you can walk around like a visitor and take tours, come to the island in a helicopter with a dramatic cutscene, be able to control dinosaurs!

[waroftheworlds01]

Another cool idea, aside from my remake of Trespasser, would be a game where you play as the game warden of Jurassic Park. There are different missions where you have to stop outbreaks, take people on tours, and stuff like that. And the story will be simular to the first film where you have to find out who the spy is that's trying to steal info from the island. Something like that.

I believe you misinterpreted that. The fate of Nublar remains unclear. What Hammond tells Malcolm is that InGen left Site B after their facilities were destroyed by a hurricane.
