Spring 2024 DLC Speculation

[Captain Callum]

A South African lion would be a good start

 

[NachoB]

I didn't use the lion unless i have the remaster mod installed so i don't remember. But it is called west african yet the zoopedia shows the whole lion range right?

A South african lion would be much better than an asían one.

 

[Topaz Star]

Just fix the thing that's broken! I don't really want another lion.

 

[Captain Callum]

I'll be clear that another big cat would probably be one of the worst additions to the game right now, we really don't need another lion, tiger or leopard that adds next to nothing to what we already have. Just remasters to the current selection is all that's needed.

About the South African Lion, are there any recent sightings of any black-maned Lions in South Africa? Sorry if what I asked was redundant.

 

[Angeł]

I’d be happy with another lion subspecies being added, but I’d equally be as happy not getting one and getting a remaster of the West African one. I just want a usable lion.

I still don't understand why Frontier chose the West African Lion. Are there even any in captivity?

 

[Angeł]

The best thing would’ve been getting a Southeast African Lion in the base game, and getting an Asiatic Lion later on in the game’s life. Or both in base game would’ve been even better tbh. Let’s hope that’s what we get for PZ2

I think because they’re critically endangered and an African species? I don’t really know.

I won't be paying for a whole new game anytime soon so i rather get a remaster of the current one.

And it looks like a generic cartoony african lion anyway. Idk why they choose to focus on that specific population for the name.

 

[The Carcharodontogenius]

If the Cape Lion was still alive to this day, I would want to see it in the game.

 

[Narwhaler]

To be fair, would it really?

Are you serious? Yes, it would. Are you actually denying that aquariums and aviaries bring new elements to the gameplay? Wack. Like I am used to pity denialism and belittling but honestly there is a limit and you just crossed the line, it's like saying marine mania didn't change the gameplay in zoo tycoon. Of course when it comes to mechanics we already got water filtering and temperature management, but it obviously affects how we build our zoos. Cringe.

Looks like a cartoon Cape Lion with different colour mane & ears.

Is there a species thats popular and requested but you think it wont make the cut and why?

(Really meant more or less standard habitat animals here)

Manatee. Why? Pretty obvious.

Most Birds Of Prey. I Just Don't See Non Walkthrough Aviaries Being A Thing In Planet Zoo.

Well i mean there are walktrough avairies for owls and stuff, its not that they swoop down to attack a person at the first chance given. And to be honest id much rather be bitten by a bird of prey of similar size than a macaw

Gelada, if we get a Safari pack with the Hamadryas it’s basically over for my bright friend.
