Once there was a place where the past and the present met in brutal confrontation. Man felt he had controlled it, had contained it, and began to understand it. But the forces of nature were never meant to be controlled, to be contained. Or, it seemed, to be understood. Until now.



A Japanese research ship is stranded on an unknown island in the Atlantic. Time and tide have laid waste to the barren facilities there, once built to contain and study the most fantastic and terrible lizards ever to have existed. Welcome to the age of the dinosaurs.

Jump back in time in an adventure that will intrigue, thrill and terrify you. As hired mercenary Johann van de Beer, you will fight to protect your friends and confound your enemies. As Dr. Saskia Brezhnev, you will learn to understand this ancient land and find clues to solve the mystery of what really happened. Together you must survive as you dodge gunfire, careen through lush forest and face the most fearsome creatures to have ever walked the Earth, in this action-packed adventure.

Were Not huge fans of posting renders, but we thought this model could slip the net for obvious reasons. Here you can see our WIP Deinonychus, she will be one of the most dangerous species you might come across whilst playing. We have also included a little fact file for you below.

The model was made by Rafael Grassetti and is planning to make many more!

The model you see might not be 100% true to life, for game-play reasons we wanted to emphasize the “scare” factor slightly more than usual. We do hope its a step in the right direction for this character and its a lot more realistic than the Jurassic Park species which were hybrids.

LWR wrote:Deinonychus was a Dromeosauride living in North America during the Early Cretaceous period. Deinonychychus, along with most Dromeosaurides, bore a sickle shaped killing claw on each hind foot. The 5-inch claw was used to stab into vital areas of its prey, such as the neck or heart, to suffocate the animal till death. The claw likely was in the air when the animal was running, to keep it from dulling and hitting the ground when on the move. The tail of Deinonychus has special bones and joints to make the tail act as a stabilizer and to keep tail straight when the animal is running. The main diet of Deinonychus was Hadrosaurs.

Characteristics: There is fossil evidence that suggests Deinonychus was a pack hunter, using the superiority of numbers to take down large prey. Much like wolves, there would be an Alpha male and Alpha female in a pack, with the alpha animals in control of the rest of the pack. Most Deinonychus packs would consist of about 4 to 6 animals. There would be a strict pecking order for food, with the alpha dinosaurs eating first. Deinonychus was a very quick animal, running at speeds of up to 50 Km/H. Since some dinosaur species were very closely related to birds, it is not impossible to imagine Deinonychus may have bore feathers. There is a lot of evidence to suggest Deinonychus was a warm blooded creature. To avoid being ripped apart by these quick predators, watch all your fronts and stay together at all times.

Hopefully this mod is released before Jurassic Park indie game since this already has an established technology base. Those guys at JP indie is gonna take a while.

Yes it is. its no longer a mod for crysis, its an Independent game. Indie means a game being produced without a publisher. Those guys are making an engine from scratch. want proof ?

I think the JP team found someone working on his own engine and jumped at the chance to use it, to develop their game.

Best of luck to them
