Alright the farmland map is removed in the new update however it still present if you choose the scenario maps - Goodwin house - terrain only. Hoping the next patch returns it

Very uh Iberian? I guess. Could work nice enough with southern Europe but still yellow and hilly like other grassland maps

Under sculpted option for south America believe, I'm too busy to check right now with OBSTRUCTED for the new bat exhibitIs the old south american mountain map (which somehow resembled the mountain where Machu Picchu is located) still there?
Woo great news, so glad we didn't have to resort to backups of an blank map
I have to say I find this poorly communicated and somewhat underwhelming.
Why not say that the update brings new map designs which are specific for continents?
Overall the backgrounds are still overwhelming and dramatic. We still don’t have a flat European temperate map background. We still don’t have a flat tundra or taiga map background. We still don’t have a flat tropical map background.
Realistic Dutch or Finnish zoos, for example are still impossible to build.
I will probably mostly use the Asia temperate map as that is the closest thing we have to a neutral, lowland temperate map. Fortunately I don’t care what continent it says as long as the map is good.
I do actually like the temperate Europe map with mountainous background but the part where the mountain comes right up to the boundary is just too much, it’s overwhelming and imposing, why not just keep the mountains in the distance all around?
And of course we should still have the option of the farmland hills background.

The newer flat temperate maps are alright if you don't zoom out and see the water. If walking around the zoo in explore cam it's pretty flat. But yeah lackluster is now I would describe these new maps
thanks friend, was a bit busy last night doing some last minute patches to mods that i couldn’t go back and try everything else
i’ll update this list with all basegame and other ones i missed
I'll be honest, whilst there are elements to some of these I'm very glad to see and grateful to have over our original selection... I also share in some of the anticlimax that has been expressed.
Mine mainly stems from the maintained disconnect the franchise entrance building will still share to the greater world in so many of these, and the inability to remedy this easily or realistically. Seems the Memorial Zoo and the Africa Desert map may come the closest in adressing my issues with the use of some implied entrances / infustrucutre like Docks and new entrances. I'll have to mess with these in-game before I make some solid conclusions or commitments. It continues to baffel me however that this still remains a illconsidered or adressed element.
I currently only play franchise as I enjoy having to navigate intended gameplay with my vision, and am staying clear of MODs till the end of the lifecycle, but how exactly my guests arrive at any of my zoos continues to be detatched from reality and a mystery.. The understandable limitation of this feature only being able to be applied to new zoos also makes me nervous of sinking hours into a new project in case this feedback leads to significant change down the line.
Fully prepared to eat my words if I open these in game and find one that ticks all the boxes after all.. but even my tampered expectations are feeling a little bruised. Ah well...

I've asked about it. It was removed by Mistake and will be added back in with the next Update
I wish we could finally get rid of it. It's not a bad Design but I hate that Thing simply for the Reason that we can't remove it or start without it
Can someone show a Picture of the temperate asian Map? I want to see what it looks like
I'm working on it
give me a few minsThanksI'm working on it
Yes it is, long grass is different although short grass looks the same
