As we know recently Frontier decided to make two awesome updates to animal models - binturong and dhole. They look much more realistic now, and people went crazy about it - so I guess the community wants even more species with improved anatomy and textures.
In my opinion devs should focus at our old, base animals. For example the giraffe - their legs have too strong bone (they are too wide) and it makes them look like a plastic toy. Same thing with bactrian camel, Thomson's gazelle, okapi, pronghorn etc. They look too much stylized and simple while people want them realistic.
I have seen many complains about lion model - the same reason but the problem is mostly about it's head. Females looks good but the male is too cartoonish. (anyway I don't think they will change them because this model is the icon of PZ game cover)
Another one - cheetah - in my opinion they are too "round". This species is know from a very angular, sharp body shapes, so our PZ cheetah looks like an obese animal compared to them... also their movement looks really strange and unnatural, especially while running. And I think something is wrong with their face but I can't say what exactly it is. The overall makes me never putting them in my zoo's.
Bear models: to me, they need more differences between each other. The grizzly and himalayan brown bear looks almost exactly the same. They could make the second one more "cute" with bigger ears to make it more unique and accurate. The polar bears also looks bad. Their head should be longer, more aero-dynamic and the ears should be smaller, placed even lower. To me polar bears looks just a reskin from brown bears while in real life their anatomy is completely different.
And the final problem is the variety of horns and antlers. Every reindeer's "crown" looks identical and... it's too small! I would say they are literally TINY comparing them to the real life ones. It's not like I want them to make every gazelle having unique horns, I'm thinking about the more spectacular ones like cape buffalo, reindeer or dall sheep.
That's all from me for today. Let me know what you think about it and share your opinions on previous said models and the other ones! (and sorry for my bad english like always lol)
