DLC18 discussion and predictions

If a pack with the unconfirmed roster being:

  • Hamadrya's Baboon
  • Secretary Bird
  • Short-Beaked Echidna
  • African Spurred Tortoise
  • Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo
  • Crowned Sifaka
  • Kirk's Dik Dik
  • Markhor

was leaked during Wetlands release time, would you believe it or would you just count it as a troll by a forums user.
it would depend on the source not the content….
in general, though, I’m suspicious of any so- called “leak”. Most have been people reading waaaaaay too much into nothing.
 
Welp, I left for 2 days and come back to almost 25 pages. Sooo we think we might have the roster of the last pack and its certainly interesting.
Personally like the Tree Roo and the Secretary but non of the others do loads for me, although I find the Sifaka interesting getting it instead of a New World Monkey would definitely suck.
I am not going to assume this is what we are getting, however I will lower my expectations but if this is the pack we are ending up with I am really disappointed by the minimal birds and the total lack of South America, we do have 8 species which does inspire some hope we may be looking at a bigger pack, although the spurred tortoise could very easily be an anniversary animal alongside a standard animal pack. Although I am holding out a sliver of hope for a larger pack so we can get some South American love or another pack in future.

So if our roster is:
  1. Hamadryas Baboon
  2. Secretary Bird
  3. Short-Beaked Echidna
  4. African Spurred Tortoise
  5. Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo
  6. Crowned Sifaka
  7. Kirk's Dik Dik
  8. Markhor
That would be quite a good pack IMHO, but who's to say it's not a bit bigger/expensive like the Ghostbusters pack? Maybe we do end up getting 10 animals, maybe not. There is always a chance the last exhibit animal could be for the WTE.

Let's also not forget the final free update, I suspect we will probably get one last education expansion. Although, it could be something related to the pack (not sure what with this roster.) Any ideas?
 
Imagine if the dictionary turns out to be a big nothing burger and none of these animals make the roster. I just can't imagine the presumed final DLC not having a single South American animal.
Frontier watching the forums during the whole dictionary discovery knowing everything being discussed is pointless:

I hope a music player gets added, like how it's done in the Paradox GSGs. Minor bug fixes and optimizations are a likely given. Flexicolor paths maybe? Mounted binoculars would be nice for big savanna habitats. Possibly add more brachiation pieces for the orangutan (I HATE those logs they use). Animal remasters would be greatly welcomed. Toning down how often the animals vocalize would be delightful, same with better grouping/herding.

Honestly nothing wrong with this, that would be a banger but not unreasonable final update

Only thing id be missing is toggleable hitboxes on objects otherwise super neat stuff

All 8 animals is speculation and basically a wish and a craft of all the leaked dictionary.
 
Honestly, other than the skeptiscim I have for the dictionary in general, the lack of South American animals in this presumed roster is what really raises red flags. Like if this was the pack, I would think Frontier has some real beef with SA animals. Again, all the work for sifaka animations when the highly desired South American primates that could reuse animations are right there! Makes me wonder I'd this is the final pack, that it will have a larger roster and higher price point. Imagine three primates in a pack though lol I just can't get over the fact that none of the dictionary animals come from Latin America, it's so ironic
 
Ladies and Gentlemen, I believe that maybe the pack can be bigger.

Based on the leaked, all we got was 8 animal dictionaries leaked. All of them which are 8 habitat, if this was a normal pack. It would be 7 habitat instead of 8.

I believe, and this is a wish that THIS PACK IS BIGGER then usual with probably 12 animal's. HOPE IS STILL LEFT FOR SOUTH AMERICA!!!!

Try not to overhype yourself, it might hurt in the end :c

It's better to believe and fail then not believe in nothing. Also, I really never cared for South American Animals expect a bird.

Also if these leaks are true, then why would there be 8 Habitat Animals. That makes no sense unless they think Exhibit's should be non existant.

Theres only 3 ways they can go through with this:

  • Do an 8 Habitat animal pack
  • Do an 12 Animal pack with 1 exhibit and 11 habitat animals
  • Do an 8 habitat animal pack + scenery.

It could also very well be a normal animal pack + an anniversary animal. If it was like, 9 habitat animals referenced, then I think we could be more certain.

Secretary word was never removed. Maybe those are seven habitat animals and secretary is no in there like we are assuming.
