DLC Ideas that could cover the future of Planet Zoo and theoretical possibilities depending on how long Planet Zoo will continue

[avietar]

I'm fine with domestic animals conceptually but there would be riots if it were included and we're indeed only getting four more packs.

Something I've thought for a while but not fully articulated is also that, for both aviaries and aquariums, I have a sense of "commit fully to it or don't do it at all". The real appeal of aviaries in real-life zoos is to have walkthrough buildings with dozens of species. An aquarium pack, unless it were meant to be a Seaworld-style focus only on large marine mammals, would also feel fundamentally incomplete if you only had four or even eight different fish. If Frontier can't do small flying birds right, I'd rather they be saved for a hypothetical PZ2 (or for the next zoo simulator game to take a crack at).

The least-bad solution for both more proper bird representation and not having to risk a "hollow" aviary system is just to add a lot of birds that don't need aviaries. Starters would be the three that score highly on the meta-wishlist (secretary bird, emu, grey crowned crane)

I'm not convinced there are only 4 packs left. I get that support won't last forever, but there is so much to explore with PZ I think it will remain profitable to support and expand for a long time to come.

And yes, agreed on your points for aviaries and aquariums.

This is the absolute dream of an aviary pack, 32 birds

THIS is the expansion (not DLC) I am talking about.

 

[RedPandaReggie]

I have made a few changes, adding the Saddle Billed Stork, Great Hornbill, Ruppell's Griffon Vulture and Peregrine Falcon

 

[conthauberger]

So Far I still wondered if these animal choices would be part of the game.

Good list, I think ALL of this is exactly what we need. In terms of birds and monkeys.

 

[conthauberger]

Besides my suggestion of Flying Birds as well as new Monkey Species for the Game. I also wonder, about any of Domestic Breed animals.

AND add petting and animal cafe options.

Here are some DLC concepts I have made, I have not made an Aviary Pack concept, but I have done concepts for 7 more potential DLCs that flesh out a few regions and revisits a few diverse locations to add a few more interesting and popular animals, these are in chronological order if Planet Zoo decides to continue through 2022 and 2023, I really hope so, the possibilities are endless for this game.

10 of 56 proposed when we got 27 this year.
So roughly 1/3 are coverd, well done

Nice. Though I will still like the Northern Red Billed Hornbill, Cattle Egret, and the Common Raven.

And I will like to see all of these Aviary birds would be habitat animals. Like having open areas to fly freely.

Nice ideas.

 

[zoomaster1994]

If planet zoo wants continued support for many more years than they should simply add the possibility to create custom aviary's and aquariums, and that's basically it to give them a lot more years to come. Give us flying birds, fishes and perhaps fully aquatic mammals too.

Cool idea.

@RedPandaReggie, would you mind making a video on your channel on how you make your pack concepts?

I could do that, I mean it isn't too difficult, like I only use PowerPoint, and come out with good results, though I am thinking of switching to Canva

How are you getting the animals outside the circles?

How are you getting the animals outside the circles?

Basically what I do is before I put the animal in the circle style, I copy it in the place that I want it. Then I paste it back over and crop the bit that I want to be coming out of the outline.

Would you mind putting that in steps. Be very specific please.
