It certainly seems like they aren't afraid to fundamentally change the game a bit, with the introduction of toilets and destructible vehicles generally (albeit negative effects on management seem to be favoured right now). These are all good ideas, though I'm not sure if weather prediction in particular is possible, considering you can currently save and reload future weather away, at least in challenge mode from what I've heard.I actually wish to bring up a question. How realistic do you all think this suggestion is? When I made this post, it was made prior to the introduction of the JP era. Now with the game being almost 2 years old, do you all think something like this may come to the game?
I still wish to see this being implemented as it would be an update that would cater to players who would love to see numbers and comments during quiet moments of the game. Or at the very least a page like this to be possible if a sequel is in the works. A part of me is still hopeful as it is not adding buildable additions to the game, but a window to show in game data to the players.
And I guess if this is to be adapted to the JP era, we could do this: it will still be called media management, but the icon would be that of a newspaper.
And the guest reception would not be based on modern social media, but on news outlets and critics. To fit the more premium feel of the very first few years of dinosaurs existing again in human society as JP would cater to a few rather than JW's cater to the many.
With Sponsorships I think it might be worth expanding upon. With the Barbasol example, a brand deal with them might mean you are required to have at least one gift shop that sells them for the period of the deal (going for item exclusivity like you've suggested might not portray real companies in the best light, even if it is potentially realistic). With other brand deals, it would logically mean being prohibited from being sponsored by their competition at all for the period of the deal, and maybe more draconian terms, especially from new fictional companies.
Sponsorships with certain companies might unlock the ability to use certain new objects, Thorne Mobile Field Systems (the fictional company that produced the Novel Lost World Vehicles) for example could unlock Lost World vehicle skins, though it could be as simple as branded billboards, new items in shops or being able to a place certain amount of a specific scenery/building for free. If this feature were a focus of a DLC, then unlocks could expand a fair bit to things like building skins (assuming such things are possible), scenery, maybe even food items for dinosaurs.
I personally like the idea of incompatible sponsors, requiring you to balance between competitive companies to get what you want at any one time, though you could alternatively go for being locked into a short term contract in exchange for a permanent unlock type.
An additional thing that might be worth considering with Guest feedback is dinosaur visibility. I don't know about you, but if a went to a dinosaur park and didn't see dinosaurs at all, or the species I came specifically to see, I would probably be vocal about it. Capacity might also be worth mentioning, "I tried to get a hotel room, but they were fully booked!"
