    DLC/Expansion suggestion: 100 000 000 BC!

    I think a DLC or expansion with dinosaurs instead of animals would fit well into the world of Oros. The "climate" and vegetation already breathes cretaceous atmosphere in my opinion. Sure, it would make no sense for a human being existing in that time, but did Blood Dragon make sense?

    Yeah i don't know why people argue against dinosaurs for realism's sake, FC is not really known as a grounded & realistic franchise. FC2 was the only one that did away with most of the unrealistic stuff... FC 3 & 4 both had supernatural elements. I don't super want dinosaurs, but if they're going to do cavemen and stone age stuff rather than modern day, they might as well...

    I think a lot of people would love this and TBH I was kind of hoping that the "drug trips" in this game would be visions back to the days when Dinosaurs walked the Earth.

    Sadly though this kind of DLC would require a ton of modeling, skeleton and AI work which for some reason Ubisoft has avoided with each passing game. We seem to get the same animals over and over again so they can reuse the skeletons, animations and AI My assumption is these areas require the most work and expense and thus make them poorly suited for DLC.

    Admittedly we did get a Yeti and Blood Dragons before (and an Owl this time) so it's not completely impossible, just seems very, very unlikely since this franchise seems to add a single new entity (by new I mean in the animation/AI dept -it's obvious that Ubi studios typically create completely new models and textures for the animals and characters with each release)...

    PS - also what the HECK Ubi?!? This is the THIRD time with this engine that you skipped on the Hyena. Everything is in there except a model and texture. You could have added cool Spotted Cave Hyenas. And also a return to dangerous flightless birds based off the Cassy. I feel like you missed a lot of great opportunities to move the animals further away from Far Cry 4 and make them feel more primal

    PSS - yeah I know it may have been slightly anachronistic but lets be honest this is quite a fictional version of the Mesolithic period anyway.

    Ah, Blood Dragon...

    Thanks for the suggestion, Aryvian.

    Standard lost world scenario - must have been mentioned already

    You all know it lost dinosaur domain: for example deep in previously undiscovered underground caverns kept warm via volcanism with light emitting algae or whatever. Yes it has been done more times than I have fingers and toes usually in dodgy cheap movies but it would still be a stupidly fun setting for a game franchise that often veers into mania.
