Fall DLC 2023 Speculation

[yoav_r]

Yeah for the past 2 years now in the first half of the year we’ve gotten a bird, last year was the crane, year before that was the African penguin, so either it’s a coincidence we haven’t got one yet, or they’re planning something.

With a dataset this big you can never go wrong

 

[CharlieXGaming]

So a follow up on the WTE, if the next pack we don’t get a Walkthrough exhibit bird, what would you think is the next WTE animal, attempt to pick something unique than what we already have (e.g don’t pick something like the two toed sloth since we already have the sloth) only one I can think of is a sugar glider.

I’m looking for any excuse to get birds

It's already wrong actually - we got the Crane and Emu last year. I mean, it's not like it's a huge improvement, but we've gotten 5 birds over 14 packs....

@CharlieXGaming - if it's not birds I honestly don't really care what our WTE animal is, but I guess I'd go with the Chameleon because it seems like an animal we should get at some point.

We arent getting WTE animal. Simple as that.

Quick! Get the mongoose!

Any realistic habitat for them is going to be the size of or smaller than the WE anyway, and climbing equipment does pretty much create a loop in practice especially in confined spaces.

But they won’t be assigned preassigned positions like they would in a WE and I have the CHOICE to make a bigger habitat or nature reserve for them if I do choose

 

[CharlieXGaming]

I feel like they wouldn’t do the tamarin or marmoset as a habitat animal though because for one it’s too small and second it’s just easier. I would rather get it in the WTE than not at all.

I kinda thought the small tamarins and marmosets would be really cool in a WTE

Ah, here we go with the quarterly "birds are coming" routine.

It isn't a speculation thread without it

Farewell pack sounds like crazy amount of cope

But we are crazy

Hmm, flying snakes...

WTE King Cobra.

Actually, for some reason this joke just sparked an idea in my tiny brain: a WE spider enclosure, with the spiders being presented via webs. Huh? Huh? Whatchall think? And this coming from an arachnophobe

I think so. My hope is for an update for new sizes for exhibits, including maybe a new type of "walkthrough exhibit" that isn't actually walkthrough, maybe even half the size?

I'm a little stimied here, to be honest! There's a few obvious bird species that come to mind (budgies, macaws, toucans, hummingbirds) as well as new species to add to what we already have (sloths, bats) but since those are ruled out in this exercise? I have no idea.

I don't think they'd go the route of having sugar gliders or tamarins/marmosets in a walk-through exhibit though. The box is way too big for the size of the animals versus the number you'd have in a given exhibit, I think. Maybe they'd just create a slightly smaller size, though? I don't know.

It's not a walk-through exhibit but I definitely wouldn't mind if they did something slightly different and just added a new shape of exhibit for something like, say, the slow loris (same issue as the sloth so I'm down for them to be exhibit) or naked mole rats or an animal along those lines instead.

I've put that idea forward a bunch of times. London Zoo has a walkthrough golden orb weaver exhibit which is astounding.

Eh. I'd still prefer them in the WE. Building tiny habitats is a pain in the ass. I still wish they'd retroactively put the koala in the WE, too.

If they can go in both WE and habitat sure

Plot twist: the Arid pack was the last pack and that’s what Frontier will announce as well as PC2

I like building tiny habitats...

Oh dear that would be really disappointing. The good news, we know there should be at least two more DLC and an anniversary animal due to the folders found in the game files.
