Planet Zoo: Barnyard Animal Pack | Announce

I can't wait to get this pack, the animals look adorable! I'm quite hyped for the fluffy alpacas, Highland cows, and the donkey.

But I know it's not for everyone, and such DLC was a controversial subject on this forum for a long time. The long waiting time probably adds to the disappointment if there is not one animal you like in it. And after building up hope for so long you're not getting anything from your list. I'm still surprised at the amount of negativity here.
Just a reminder that the faces behind the social media accounts aren’t the people who decided this pack, these animals, or anything.

The people who worked on the models, the trailers, the animations, etc were told to make a pack like this.

Not to mention this is just a video game. A video game where it’s people’s jobs to make these animals for you.
This is very true!
Do I do a video where I cook and eat every animal in this pack
Please, no o_O
what is your favourite animal from this pack
Before seeing the models it's hard to say! Alpacas look so good! But I can't wait to see the donkey and the Highland cow :) I have a feeling that the donkey will be my favorite.
I've been part of this forum for a very long time and I'm sad to see how it is becoming such a negative place. With every new DLC many people complain because they take for granted it was the last pack and didn't include what they wanted. However here we are still getting new dlcs and updates. Yes, they are not as big or ground-breaking as they used to be, and they have many "clones", but bearing in mind that we are so far in development we are very lucky that we are still getting things. We all have different tastes and it's OK to dislike a new dlc, but some users seem to be mad with every single new dlc or update. I honestly don't know why they keep playing a game that they don't like anymore.

The souvenir shops from update 1.16 and petting zoos from 1.17 have been resquested for ages.
A new smaller gater for walk-through habitats has been requested for ages.
I've seen content creators buidling custom hay bales for ages.
We have been asked more more ungulates for ages.

It would be nice to judge the new pack for what it is and not for what it isn't. The pack and update bring many often resquested things. Another proof that Frontier does listen to us. Yes, we are still missing birds, and monkeys, and more South Americna animals, and a rabbit and a duck, but we are no longer waiting for petting zoos, or swans, or Tasmanian devils or porcupines. If months go by and then we don't receive a new DLC, only then we will be able to say that XXX pack was the last one, and then it will be ok to say if that pack was a bad final pack or not.

Again, it is OK to give your oipinion and criticism. I have already said that I wish we had had a rabbit in this pack and a different goat species. However the continous negative atmosphere based on just uncertain assumptions is really tiring.

Sorry for my rant.
Very well said, Aramar!

The alpacas are really cute. And I wonder if that wall could be a fence piece. That would be super useful to not have to place those tiny rocks individualy.
They are adorable! How can anyone dislike alpacas?
 
Do you think the new animals will have enrichment bonus with the older domestic animals? For example, alpaca with llama?

And will the alpacas spit too?
I could Imagine that there will be no enrichment Bonus between Llama and Alpaca as they can breed together. That is the reason I think Addax and Scimitar Horned Oryx or Somali Wild Donkey and the Zebra have No enrichment Bonus. But the Alpaca could Work with the Giant Anteater, peccary, Capuchin or Tapir I think.
 
That is all what these animals products are to me, food, animals created and formed by humans to be food so wild animals can (mostly) live in peace and aren't all going extinct because of humanities hunger.

So a pack of product food, while we could have some awesome gelada, secretary birds, pelicans and muntjac, ugh.
Man you sound like a lovely person that definetly has respect for living creatures

They will spit on their haters.

I really hope they'll spit. It'll be a fun animation to watch, and give petting zoos at least some sense of danger.

It would be even funnier if goats playfully attack guests like they would with other goats. +1 if Frontier does that.
 
Man... not what I wanted nor what I expected.
Can't lie and say I'm kind of disappointed, I've never been a fan of this whole concept and now it's here. My biggest hope out of this whole ordeal is this not to be the last pack the game closes on, I really hope the price theory holds water. The lack of a rabbit is also very sad but for what I've seen everything shown is looking pretty damn good, won't say it's "bad" content per se. The pieces are what attract me the most, those more rustic pieces and hay objects will be very useful for many builds. The whole guest interaction aspect of the whole ordeal is also looking pretty cool. I'm very curious to see what the sheep and cattle look like, as well as the donkey.
Not for me and I'm kinda sad for that, Eurasia spoiled me ahaha. Glad for everyone excited for petting zoos and domestic animals though, enjoy it ;)
 
Tell me how. I've trying to manifest southamerican animals for four years lol
I can help. Sometimes I believe I have a direct wish pipeline to Frontier.

All of my strangest animal requests have gotten into the game. All animals I didn’t think would ever get in that were on the top of my list have been implemented. The Striped Skunk, Fruit Bat, Wisent and Scottish Highland Cattle were all number ones on my list at the time they were included, to name just a few.

So, what animals do we want next time? I’ll do my hardest manifestation for you all! Besides the Gelada (and EBB) I have no real NEEDS anymore
