🐾Planet Zoo: Tropical Pack arriving 4 April🐾

[FoxyDee]

Me too. I don't understand why river hog has the aquatic biome. It is odd.

Uhmm…because they live near rivers? Red RIVER Hog?
I guess they do not have water requirment because they dont really need water in captivity, but the aquatic biome makes sense to me, as the biomes mainly refer to their habitats in nature.

The only tiny gripes I have from what I have seen:

- No enrichment items again makes me sad, it was always one of my favourite things in the packs and to see none new added while there could still be things like water slides, leaf piles and other amazing things. Even reskinned things like the dog chew toy reskinne to a branch or more natural scratching trees would make me happy.

Oh yes, I forgot this in my message. The lack of enrichment items once more is a pity. Something simple as another scratching tree for the diffeent biomes would be cool. We only have two of them!

Super excited from what I've seen so far ! I still think WE for the sloth was the good solution and I'm so happy to see they are really slow moving. All the animals look amazing. The gibbons have a lot of color variations. The construction pieces are awesome too. Sounds like a very great pack. Can't wait for tomorrow.

And also THANK YOU for the brachiation on ropes ❤

I just want to say thank you PZ team for letting Gibbons brachiate not only on the lianas, but also on the rope pieces. This have really made my day.

• Sad that the female River Hogs seems a little blunt in colour next to the males. There is not a sexual dinorphism regarding colour in them in real life as far as I can say.
• Sloths are implemented nicely, but still, the exhibit box is just too huge for anything other than a walkthrough. I want to be able to also build normal exhibit with glass for them, but with exhibit this size, it is simply too unrealistic.

Like I said, I love the pack, just wanted to provide a bit of constructive feedback to the team, but amazing job nonetheless.

Oh they can also use the ropes? I was just about to ask that

You should watch the video of simplysavannah, is like a normal animal habitat

 

[QueenCinna]

I am so happy that they added brachiation to the vines

No way a normal Sloth habitat would be this HUGE in real life, if it was not walk-through. To be clear, I am OK with the Sloth being exhibit, BUT I hate the exhibit box itself, because it is so freaking HUGE. If they added a smaller, non-walkable version, I would be totally OK with it.

 

[PeppyPepp]

Everything in the pack looks fantastic, my only complaint is that there's a small amount of new foliage. It looks amazing, just for a tropical pack I would expect a lot more foliage.

Excited to try it out tomorrow.

O yes of course, buy she did a good job trying to create an habitat inside of a WE , yes if too big also for me but after of watch her video I noticed that the height can be short because they don't fly like the bats of the butterflies

 

[Captain Callum]

It will be interesting with the size of the walkthrough exhibit and fitting it inside a realistic building, probably going to be way too big

So Nile monitor can’t deep dive? I’m hearing different things

And did anybody check if there could be brachiation for orangutans? I guess not...

I really wish to know if this time yes or simply not

 

[Doran]

Orangutan cant brachiate.

 

[Ozian]

I am actually super happy with the sloths. I think the team came up with a strong solution with a lot of variation and enough movement to make it interesting. Rudi Rennkamel’s YouTube Video of Palm Zoo shows you can actually customise and disguise a lot of the climbing frame. I’m excited to give it a go myself!

 

[Marvinb]

Orangutan cant brachiate.

But they updatet the siamang to also use the ropes and vines.

 

[Hugo98]

The most amazing news for me today is that they've added brachiation to the ropes. This was really needed!
Do these changes also work for the siamang?

 

[Doran]

But they updatet the siamang to also use the ropes and vines.

It still moves like chimp on them and knuckle-walk. It is hilarious to see animal, which came out not that long ago to be so inferior to Lar gibbon.

 

[LuckyFoxEnterprises]

Our local zoo has ambassador sloths living in the WE aviary with a variety of birds. They also have a smaller exhibit about twice the size of the in-game non-we ones. The IRL sloths don't seem to do much more than sleep on their area in the larger exhibit, but it's not totally unrealistic.

All hail the new lar gibbon, the community called for it first so we better like it
