Zoo Tycoon 2 Animals

Frontier look no further, I did all the hard work for you.

IF you ever (and you will) gonna consider Planet Zoo 2, then I have the perfect animal-roster for you.

In the next game I wanna see bird cages and aquariums from the start, not a lot, but just a few very important ones, and they can add 1 animal for each DLC in those categories later on.

This will be the perfect roster of animals if I say-so myself.

In the main-game all continents will be nicely covered from the start, adding needed animals later on in the Continent packs and the environment packs / special packs that come later.

Continental Packs only add 4 big animals, but they also add bird/fish/exhibit animals and a lot of extra’s that aren’t in the 7 animal packs.
Environment packs and special packs add 7 animals but add lots of plants and only add animal-toys/stuff that goes with the new animals, no buildings or other such stuff is added with the animals.

You can thank me later Frontier, you’re welcome!

PS. Some animals have + name of animal behind them, these are DOUBLE animals, but they have same animations and behavior, just another texture, these are clones included.

I hope Planet Zoo 1 will continue for a long time still, but if there ever was Planet Zoo 2, this would be nice roster. I like your idea of each DLC adding exhibit, We exhibit, Aviary and Aquarium animal. I wish we would get both Exhibit and WE exhibit animals in current packs, because some things like Emerald Tree Boa, beautiful lime-green snake doesnt have a chance of getting added because Frontier now only do We exhibits.
 
If we get sequel without all existing animals and they sell us back animals from the last game like Sable antelope I'll be real annoyed and feel ripped off.
Why? Zoo Tycoon did exactly that.

Planet Zoo 2 will be a very different looking game, not the same game with better graphics only.

The sMe company ahs already made a sequel with JWE 2 and it had the entire first games roster. I think it's better to go by the companies tactics over past zoo games. Either way a sequel 4 years off at least so we don't need to worry too much.
 
I wouldn't mind that, having all animals in zoo tycoon 2 at the start, but unlike the dinosaurs, there are actually A LOT of animals, over 200 in the end I think, so putting them all into one game would be kinda overkill! Also I wouldn't mind if they cut animals like Bonobo and Nyala, but that's just me.
 
Chimpanzee are actually my least favorite real-life animals, mostly because they remind me of humans lol and they are really evil killers and scary strong, ripping arms off is something they can do without a thought.

But I agree they are vital for an Zoo game, Bonobo, never heard of them before of planet zoo though, maybe because I never read into Chimpanzee to begin with.
 
why on planet zoo 2 hypotecally all animals from the first game wouldn´t be in the sequel??
if jwe 2 inclueded all the animals from the first game and all from the dlc´s, why not PZ2?
Because PLanet Zoo has a lot more animals than JWE had dinosaurs.
 
can we please stop with the chimpanzee gaslighting, sure they have some pretty scary tendencies but they've been getting a horrible reputation as of late due to the peddling of this myth
This is any animal discourse lately online, not the biggest fan 🙃

it's still an invalid argument, it would be too bad if we didn't have all the animals we had in the fiesta game, also It so ridiculus cut an animal they did'nt before in jwe 2
 
I could do without some zt2 animals. The Barbary ape is ok but I could equally do with out. The gelada I’d much rather have the Hamadryas baboon. The Ethiopian wolf isn’t exactly necessary imo. The Baird’s tapir could easily be replaced with the Brazilian imo. Nothing against these animals but I’m glad frontier gave us animals like the dall sheep which imo is one of the best to date. Zt2 was great but it’s not the holy grail.
 
You hear that frontier, people are really expecting these days, you can't create PLanet Zoo without having all 200 animals in the main game, and still ask the same money from it.

Harsh world, harsh people, and people call me harsh.. LOL
