MemberTyrannosaurus RexNov-07-2013 2:54 PMI have a few things id change.
The JP3 Spino is NOT a good resource to use for Spino fight tactics.
Giga would have to do more than bite and slash Rex/Spino and wait, a battle between either of them and Giga would be a long fight.
Rex could do more than just bite the neck and head to kill, it could disembowell it's opponent too. I've got a Rex/Giga battle in my upcoming story, so I hope everyone enjoys that.

MemberCompsognathusNov-07-2013 4:49 PMOkay, interesting. I don't agree with your ideas, but that's okay. There your ideas, not mine. Stay away from my ideas, and don't touch my cereal box!

MemberCompsognathusNov-07-2013 10:23 PMDo I agree? No. Does it matter what I think? Not really. Your list.
But as MrHappy said, don't use any of the Jurassic Parks for any scientific info. I could go into more detail about size, strength, etc, but that'd take too long and you all know my thoughts anyways.

MemberTyrannosaurus RexNov-07-2013 10:28 PMI was waiting to see what you would say Rex Fan, I knew you wouldn't agree with this, but that doesn't matter, his list, much like how we can complain about other's lists, and they can complain about ours, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter. So long as you respect their opinion it's fine.

MemberCompsognathusNov-08-2013 4:13 AMguys,please write down what you don't agree in my list!
@MrHappy:i only mention the jp3 because i think its a possible way for the spino to twist the giga/t.rex's neck,and the giganotosaurus teeth are for cut and slash.
@RexFan:i dont talk about things that you said(size,streght,etc..) because i think that at first we need at least one complete skeleton for each dino(in this case only for the giga and the spino)

MemberTyrannosaurus RexNov-08-2013 6:31 AMIs it possible for Spino to do what it did in JP3? Yes. Is is likely? Not a chance in hell. I did write down what I don't agree with.
As for Rex Fan's estimates, those are based off of scientific estimates, and scientists look at proportions. For example, scientists used Baryonyx to estimate Spinosaurus's size.
I personally believe that Spino was about 50-53 feet long and maxed out at 60. That's just me though, and the regulars who have been here for a while know why I think that.

MemberCompsognathusNov-08-2013 10:50 AMI think Giganotosaurus was a giant 50 foot long beast, and in a pack, was a killer of all who stand in its way. I think Spino could use his teeth to twist Rex's neck like that, but its not likely. Rex, in my opinion, uses his head and overall sheer muscle to get his jaws around the neck of his opponents, and then all is over.
DinoSteve93
MemberCompsognathusNov-08-2013 12:43 PMWell, I think Spinosaurus would not act in real life like in JP3. Sure, it could use its enormous claws, but overall, Spinosaurus was not designed for a battle against those massive weights.

MemberCompsognathusNov-08-2013 11:45 PMCould Spino win from time to time? Of course. Could it win in the way it did in JP3? No way. Spino did not have the wrist action required to twist another theropod's neck like that nor were it's arms quite that muscular. If Spino would win, he would have to slash his opponents throat open with his claws.
For T-rex, he could use his massive size and bulk as a weapon. A large Rex could push and shove it's enemy and break it's bones with sheer brute force. Tyrannosaurus could also use it's massive jaws to crush bones and sever the spinal cord.
Giga would use the slash and dash. He would leap in and use his long, thin teeth to create a large, heavily bleeding wound on his enemy and then leap back to avoid a counter attack. He would continue to do this until his rival has bled to death.
Sniper- I brought up size because you said Spino was the largest and Giga was second biggest. Well, this is debatable. That's why I mentioned it.

MemberCompsognathusNov-11-2013 4:25 PMIs there any proof that spinosaurus was this weak, oversized , light excuse of a dinosaur, every day I come to this site and all I see is people criticizing this amazing creature,all we have of its fossils are jaws and a few bones. No body part like ribs and legs exist right now, there is no proof this creature was a light, slow, and sorry excuse of a dinosaur you people talk about every day.i know everyone has there opinions but seriously, you guys make this amazing creature sound like a small Rugops could kill it easily. When I look at it spinosaurus was a big, fast ,and active predator. People here don't give it any credit and I'm tired of it. There is a lot more information on Rex than any other dinosaur so its unfair to compare it to an animal we barely know anything about! This animal was designed to kill, it was accurate in JP3, because this animal fought Charcharadontosaurus which was taller and longer than Rex.how would you guys feel if I said Rex was a stupid animal and was slow? It would suck, and if there was barely any information on T-Rex than it would be unfair to judge it but for some reason it's ok to judge poor spinosaurus!

MemberCompsognathusNov-11-2013 4:32 PMAlso Jack Horner designed the fight, I know he doesn't like T-Rex now but that has nothing to do with this revolutionary paleontologist's theory on how it fought,nothing to do with Rex

DinoSteve93
MemberCompsognathusNov-11-2013 4:44 PMSpinobro, I respect you and Spino, and I think it's an amazing animal, one of my favourite dinosaurs.
First of all, no one said it's weak, stupid or either slow.
Second, you're right, we have only a couple of bones of it, but they're enough to demonstrate it was a classic spinosaurid, and spinosaurids were light-built animals, heavy, but light-built comparing to other theropods.
Third, it's very inaccurate in JP3, very, very inaccurate, I don't say because, someone else said that before me.
Fourth, again, no one said Rugops could kill it.
Finally, I really like Spino, and I consider it's a great animal, but let's consider the facts as they are, shall we?

MemberCompsognathusNov-11-2013 5:09 PMI get what you're saying Dino Steve ,and no one said in this topic.Rugops was an example and all those things were from other topics.
How is it inaccurate?
welcome to the new age
DinoSteve93
MemberCompsognathusNov-11-2013 5:14 PMWell, in JP3, it has too big arms, too large first claw, to small sail, two crests instead of one, too wide skull, and overall is too bulky

MemberCompsognathusNov-11-2013 10:16 PMSpinobro, just look at these two pics for a second. The first is JP III, the second is Planet Dinosaur.

Never in 65 million years would I ever say Spinosaurus was weak. But, I'm not gonna sit here and pretend the one seen in JP III wa the real deal. As far as comparing it to T-rex, this post was about comparing it to T-rex and Giganotosaurus.

Dynamosaurus Imperiosus/ Raptorexxx 700
MemberCompsognathusNov-12-2013 12:28 PMone of the few things i disagree with rex fan is i think spinosaurus was a little heavier than trex at around 14.5 tons and was somewhat the bear of the cretaceous as it has got:
size=bear
piscovore=bear
claws=bear
jaws=gharial
DinoSteve93
MemberCompsognathusNov-12-2013 1:01 PMWhat? Spino is only the size of a bear? Wow, it's much smaller than initially thought!
Seriously now, I think too it was the bear of the Cretaceous, only not as bear as you said! :)

MemberCompsognathusNov-12-2013 2:39 PMI didn't know they were different and I'm sorry but does bulk have anything to do with this?Ive heard people say size doesn't count
welcome to the new age
Rex Fan 684
MemberCompsognathusNov-12-2013 2:48 PMSize does matter a good bit. A bull dog is not as tall as a husky, but far bulkier and stronger pound for pound. T-rex is the bull dog and Spino is the husky, if that makes sense.
And Raptorexxx, that's fine, but we can't forget about UCMP 118742(the T-rex that's possibly 16 meters long and 12-15 tons). Just saying ;)

MemberTyrannosaurus RexNov-12-2013 2:56 PMI'm going to have to side with Rex Fan and DinoSteve on this one. Pound for pound, Rex, physically larger, Spino.
Rex vs Spino is dead, remember? Arguing is pointless, so let's just stop with this.

Oh, and while the Bulldog/Husky comparison is pretty good, i think that the Rottweiler/Great Dane comparison is a bit more accurate. :)
