Man, I wish my fights were this long!

Wow that was one hell of a fight! Suprised by he winner. Wasn't rooting for ether. 

I like it. But I wonder how he ddied and in my new series there are a lot of mysterious or awesome deaths..........

Thank you guys also super predator I was trying to make m. Story realistic to the movie. Though I debated on weither or not to kill off Muldoon as I kept him alive in my other two stories.

Muldoon died!!!

Nice cliffhanger!

Nice chapter as per usual, looking forward to the next one. 

That, I did not know. Nice :)

You certenly did good :)

Glad you like it. I myself did that video :)

Seen it before. Probably my favourite thing I've seen for the game so far.

Interesting, I agree with the size. 

that rex looks like the PD Carcharodontosaurus, and i like it. No feathers :D

Pretty cool. Looks like this game will be pretty sweet.

Sure thing. Figured it was worth sharing

Thanks for sharing RexFan.

The animations got updated anyway, since we posted the video ;)

Nice.

Dynamo I agree with your estimates:)

Ha. 16 meters long and 4-6 tons were my early estimates. Spino's length range for me has increased to 17 meters, though I added 14 meters in the lower spectrum. I upped the minimum weight by a ton and the max by 2 tons.

i remember at one point you estimated spino at 4 tons

That size is pretty close to my estimates then.

we should be getting some sort of word by the end of the year...i always envisioned spino as a giant crane...

anways, Upscaling from a 11 meter, 3.5 ton Sucho would bring ol' spino into the ball park of ~8/9 tons, 16 meters long. 

My thing with the new mount is it looks just plain bizarre, i mean look at this skeletal:

Compared to the Sereno mount:

The length of the type specimen of Suchomimus, a POSSIBLE subadult, was initially estimated at 11 m (36 ft). In 2007, its weight was estimated at between 2.6 and 5.2 tonnes. In 2010, Gregory S. Paul gave lower estimations of 9.5 metres and 2.5 tons. A 3.5 ton weight estimate for an 11 meter Suchomimus isn't that "crazy."

If edmarka is synonymous with Torvosaurus, we may just get our 12 meter megalosaur. I'm gonna do some digging on that one though, but from what i'm seeing we might have a new member of the top 5 largest theropods

HPP: even with your 3 ton estimate for Suchomimus that would put YOUR Spinosaurus at 6-7 tons.

CARNOSAUR: I did see it, and it does seem a bit wierd ( espacially the arms ) but i can understand why he did make the legs so long, maybe they were like a crane's in order to stand in deep water.

Looks nice adn fluid

Saw it- Awesome

I Agreee with rexfan, PS rex you missed a lot yesterday and today

I gave you a reason. 

I put spino at 5.5-8 tons and 15-16.5 meters. Also I put Suchomimus at 3-3.5 tons ussualy 3.

about exponential growth, that was a point i never factored when i covered it in "the size of.." series, but you make a good point with it. IMO, the 6 ton estimates thrown around by nat geo seemed way to low for a 15-17 meter long theropod, even Bahariasaurus ingens would weigh 5.5 - 6 tons at that length, and it's a very gracile theropod.

Spinosaurus had no need to have drab coloration, as it spent most of its life at the waters edge. It didn't need to set ambushes, nor did it need to hide itself from predators(maybe the young, but that's a different story.

The whole sail thing, i don't really know what the spines anchored. They aren't anything like the spines of dimetrodon, yet aren't like the spines that anchor the fatty hump of a bison. a 6 foot tall ridge like that of Suchomimus seems to be rather unlikely as well...and i don't know of anyone suggesting alternatives, nor can i think of any

Out of curiosity, what do you think of Paul Serenos' new spinosaurus mount? with the oddly proportioned legs and arms, it just seems off to me..

Ohh, but a Suchmimus would be 3.5 tons at 10 m not 11 and as I said Exponential growth

But HPP you have to give me a reason is it what Rexfan said?

Thanks guys!

Not bad. I estimate Spino at 14-17 meters long and 5-8 tons myself. 

You also mentioned a 4.2 ton Suchomimus at 11 meters. I myself put Suchomimus at 3.5 tons tops, so that's probably where are difference of opinion begins.

Nice. I agree with the estimate!  Nice to see my favorite European dinosaur done ;)

Why HPP? did you read what I said about The exponential thing

I did but, I dont agree with it. 

I always did find the 12+ meter Torvosaurus to be out there. 11 meters long seems like a much more reasonable upper estimate.

I don't agree with your spino weight or length but, otherwise I agree with most of what is said.

thanks super predator but what are your thoughts about Spino
