I'm pretty sure it would have failed without sabotage. The tropical storm would have probably wiped out the power or damaged the fences on its own. It was a stupid location to build a park filled with apex predators. They don't build zoos in the middle of the ocean either.
I forgot most of the details, except the cool australian safari hunter dude doesn't die, at one point he hides from the raptors in a cement tube, then jumps out and blows one of them up with an rpg
Book Hammond cut corners even worse than movie Hammond and was more of an butthole IIRC. He also dies in JP1 instead of getting killed offscreen between JP3 and JW like movie Hammond.

The park was straight up horribly designed. Why the FRICK would you rely entirely on electric fences to keep the dinos contained?
Should have just put them in pits. Yeah the pits would have to be enormous, but it would be pretty much guaranteed that they can't get out.
They can swim up fast like a dolphin and jump the fence

No water, I'll say it again. You create a moat without water around the enclosure.

Yeah but when it rains you also don't want your prize dinosaurs falling into it and breaking ankles and shit. All that money wasted for a broken dinosaur
Spared no expense, but couldn't pay his own son enough money so that he had to resort to crime, which ultimately lead to the downfall of the park.
did anyone read the book? is this accurate?
I would assume that he would have planned for everything except that fat frick betraying him
It was a tax right off you chuds, he had no intentions of opening the park. The plan was to raise the stock price from hype then he was going to dump his stock and move to Thailand with his 13 year old wife. Read a fricking book
He wasn't. He was just some programmer Hammond hired. If you play Trespasser you actually learn about all the behind the scenes shit Hammond and Nedry were doing to crack the dino genetic code and where Hammond discovered Nedry.
1 Hammonds failure to compensate employees adequately and pushing impossible deadlines for technical work leading to corporate espionage.
2 A major programming error that a six year old could foresee because of the previously mentioned rushed work.
3 Failing to implement adequate safety measures and failsafes based on past incidents.
4 Hammond being an uneducated wealthy businessman thought he was better at everyone else at everything and didn’t listen to engineers and employees that knew more than he did.
5 Hammond was running low on capital and needed to pump out a working park within the next few months or they would fall behind their competitors and lose first mover advantage and the confidence of banks and other investors.
They were lysine deficient so they would die if they didn't get their supplements from the humans. It turned out the dinos just ate plants that were rich in lysine.
One of the weaker plot points really. Right next to the frog DNA turning the freakin dinos gay.
Chilean seabass, exquisite
is chili and seabass good bros?
It's a wonderful Alejandran dish.

dinos were escaping the island before that
it was inevitable that the park would fail

Hammond got killed? I assumed he just died of old age in the movies.
he is killed my compys after falling and spraining his ankle after being scared my a speaker playing a trex raw

>enormous
Only the edges of the enclosure need to be lowered, probably a 10m wide hole would more than suffice for all dinosaurs
Like a moat? That woodnt work because trexes can swim
Yes like a moat, why swim? No water needed. The frickers cant jump twice their height.

wait, Newman was his son?
He wasn't. He was just some programmer Hammond hired. If you play Trespasser you actually learn about all the behind the scenes shit Hammond and Nedry were doing to crack the dino genetic code and where Hammond discovered Nedry.
>Trespasser
Wish I played that in my time, but somehow it was strangely unavailable. We had Turok and everything else, but not this game.
I'm totally unappreciated in my time. You can run this place with minimal staff for up to 3 days! Couple people might get eaten tho
He obviously spared some expense as the whole park was capable of being taken offline by a single person.
In the book it comes down to:
1 Hammonds failure to compensate employees adequately and pushing impossible deadlines for technical work leading to corporate espionage.
2 A major programming error that a six year old could foresee because of the previously mentioned rushed work.
3 Failing to implement adequate safety measures and failsafes based on past incidents.

I'VE BEEN LEFT BEHIND ON EESLA NOOBLAH
disgusting
then why did he hire a Black and didnt pay newman decently.
Didn't the dinosaurs have something in their bodies that made them die if they escaped?
Like an explosive dildo?
