🐧 Planet Zoo: Aquatic Pack arriving 8 December! 🐧

Mixed feelings about this..Very happy for the diving animals but i hoped for a bigger pack this time. I'll buy that anyway but i think that we will be stuck with the 5 animals per pack forever. Hope for a better 2021. Nothing to say about the animals and the pack in general, amazing job as always devs :)
 
Even though this DLC didn't break the pattern with the amount of animals, it stills seems to be modelled differently than the other DLCs. 3 out 4 animals have a very different feel from what we got already. The caiman being the last is also (most likely) coming with new animations (diving).

The overall theme fells more loose and even visits areas already covered in previous DLCs. I guess it can be compared to the Arctic pack (both being biomes/habitats rather than continents.) But this still feels different. The previous DLCs was more about adding a new area to your zoo, while this will more likely add to already existing areas.
Same goes for the scenery.

Also the exhibit animal seems to have a very different feel this time.

I can see this DLC+update open a lot of doors for future DLCs, and one of those doors could be DLCs with a larger number of animals.

It is easy to see Frontier really listened to the community this time, so I am sure they will continue to do so in the future.

Thank you Frontier!
 
Yes!!! This looks amazing!!! Of course I’m most excited for deep swimming and our new animals and foliage - they’re going to be amazing and I can’t wait to play with them!

I’m also looking forward to the new modern design pieces too - the fonts in the trailer look brilliant, and I love more general, modern build sets.

Thank you so much Planet Zoo team, can’t wait until the 8th!

What an amazing looking pack - cannot fault a single animal included and the addition of full underwater navigation is a revelation.

On the topic of underwater navigation, does this cover any of the base game animals like the crocodiles, bears, tapirs or monitor lizards or is it currently only reserved for the new animals in the pack?
Deep swimming is a huge undertaking, when you see the animals from this pack in action, we believe the community will see how much work goes into each animal. For that reason, the Saltwater Crocodile is currently the only animal from the base game, but the team are committed to bringing deep swimming to more animals in the future.

Thank you for the reply. Really appreciate all the hard work you've clearly put into this, and I am looking forward to seeing what else you achieve in the future
 
Holy crap! What a Tuesday! I must say I'm lowkey the most excited for the terrapin and caiman. Finally, an animal (terrapin) hat lives where I live (Long Island, NY)!!! I also love the sea otters and penguins too. And, I couldnt care less about there being only 5 animals, it is 100% fine, and the free scenery pieces... Wow! The new fontšŸ‘Œ. And that harbor theme is killer. I'm so excited to start work on a reptile park next week!!!
 
I really like the inclusion of the giant river otter, and the caiman. Helps flesh out our South America section more! I was always planning on modelling Amazon sections around the river and rainy lush environments. Hopefully we will get bigger packs in the future, we are sorely missing sea lions, another penguin or two, and something BIG like elephant seals or walruses. Wonderful to see diving makes it's debut. A fresh water turtle is also a great addition.
