Mod in video: Jurassicraft
Maybe it's because Jurassic World just came out, but dinosaurs are seriously on the brain right now. Everything from tiny, adorable sources of food to gigantic super-predators that could make people their food, dinosaurs have been awesome since forever. Maybe it's easier to think of them that way since they're not around anymore! Who knows.
Anyway, I got to thinking: how would Minecraft have been different with dinosaurs added in early in the game's development? There would certainly be new sources of materials in them, not to mention the obvious dangers of huge, lumbering predators wandering the landscape. Maybe even flying dinosaurs - whether as monsters, or as something you could slap a saddle on and ride around - would have made a profound difference. They are game-changers no matter how you look at it.
So what do you think? Would dinosaurs have made the game better, or worse? What could they add to the game, if anything? Would they be out of place in the setting as we know it?

Posted Jun 14, 2015Actually add dinos to vanilla minecraft? I dunno about that, but I could see the inclusion of very very rare fossils being a pretty cool idea.
People could collect them and put them on display ala AnimalCrossing

Posted Jun 14, 2015It'd be neat, but they just wouldn't fit. Unless we're talking Mushroom Biome, Nether, and/or underground. Then they could possibly fit. Dragons are a bit more fitting. But really it all depends on the specific sub-type of critter.

Posted Jun 14, 2015Yes they could, somehow. I've always has the idea of mining fossils then it dropping a type of specific dinosaur fossils that are used to summon the Dinosaurs.
Maybe they could add a few, like Deinonychus or Dilophosaurus, the small-medium can fit into the game, but the big ones? Probably not.

Posted Jun 14, 2015I think Dinosaurs would have been a great idea for Minecraft, and probably still are. Congratulations to Jurassicraft for making it onto the main page!

Posted Jun 14, 2015"flying dinosaurs" do not exist. They are called pterosaurs.
Am I the only one noticing these pointless "community roundtables"? It seems just like lazy filler because Mojang hasn't released much information about 1.9. It's also lazy because you could have reviewed the mod instead of just showing an old, out of place video(seriously, the mod has changed very much). You could have also show some o the other awesome mods and redstone creations the community has created, but these roundtables seem pointless because you don't even respond to any of the things people have replied to you(yet).

Posted Jun 15, 2015I think instead of full-out mobs, we could simply have dinosaur fossils. Basically, one new ore-like block, that drops different parts of a dinosaur skeleton (perhaps only the well-known species like Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops and Velociraptor), and we craft the bones together to create a skeleton that can be used as decoration. Or you could place the skulls down as decoration similar to the zombie, skeleton, creeper and wither skeleton heads.

Posted Jun 15, 2015Honestly I can say nothing against the dinosaurs in MC in general. Well, we got creepers and ender men, why the dinosaurs would be out of place? It's just a question of balance. Not "who" will be added but more like "how" they will be added. Of course I don't want the game to turn to Jurassic Park with all the kinds of dinosaurs, but episodical presence of some dinosaurs or even better dinosaur-like mobs or bosses for certain locations/bioms - why not?

Posted Jun 15, 2015Honestly, I'd be ok with dinosaurs if they made them fit in with Minecraft. No DNA or fossil reviving or any of that stuff, just dinos as new mobs you could find in the world. A lot of people are saying they wouldn't fit in with the game because they're extinct, but if you think about it, Minecraft isn't really Earth. It's just a world where some of the animals happen to look like blocky versions of Earth animals. Dinosaurs, or mobs that look like dinosaurs, don't have to be limited by what happened to them in real life.

Posted Jun 16, 2015As I said how about fossils that summon Dinosaurs, no need of genetics or going back in time. I mean, terraria has an amber that summons a dinosaur.
