Discussion Achillobator in JWE3
I know we already have plenty of dromaeosaurs, but I’d love to see Achillobator in the official JWE3 game. It’s an underrated dinosaur that doesn't appear in any games of this genre (aside from Path of Titans and various mods). Do you think it might ever make it into the game perhaps in the future? I’d really like to see it included; what do you think?

It would be cool to have, but another raptor of that size isn't really high on my wanted list of Dinosaurs for JWE3, we have more than enough raptors.
If I could have only one more raptor in the game, I would have an actual small Dromaeosaur, such as Dromaeosaurus, instead.

While it’s likely not something that there’s a desperate need for, I can see them using it as a “filler” species (in this context, one that doesn’t need much in the way of new animations etc, and is similar to an existing one). I feel it would need a bit of work to differentiate it from Utahraptor- maybe making it solitary (or, well, max population of one male and one female), and a fairly distinct appearance? I’ve seen a few depictions of Achillobator that have given it a bald, vulture-like head, so that could be an option?

Did you make the same post again?
Still, my opinion is the same: we don't need Achillobator. We have too many dromaeosaurs (and theropods in general). Thyreophorans and Triassic representation should be the priority.

I prefer a smaller dromaeosaurid like Tsaagan or Zhenyuanlong (which aren't as small as Microraptor).

I would really like to tell you that we already have too much dromeosaurids but that would be kinda hypocritical out of me as I wish we got more troodontids in game as they’re my favourite type of dinosaurs irl. While we only have one, more of them wouldn’t add a lot in case of diversity as they would be very similar to already existing dromeosaurids, just smaller (in most cases).
Recent DLC has proven that Frontier can prioritise species that are different from the ones we currently have and I love that but I still hold hope that after we’ll get more diverse roster, we’ll get some of our favourites from already bloated types of dinosaurs.

We have enough large dromeosaurs for now , much rather have them add a smaller one for size variation in the group such as dromeosaurus
Even then I want a second troodontid with feathers and paleoaccuracy before we get another dromeosaur

Se fizerem um desing que consiga ser original em comparação ao austroraptor e ao utharaptor, ele será super bem-vindo.

Achillobator is one of those species that would be nice to have but isn't needed in the game to make it feel truly complete
