This is the only thing with "Twilight" in the name that I've ever been excited about!
Planet Zoo: Twilight Pack arriving 18 Oct 🦇
- Thread starter Lydiah Moon
- Start date
My thoughts about the animals:
Egyptian Fruit Bat - really excited about this one, its something completely new and I just love bats.
Red Fox - I like them, its basically the last fox that was a must for me and also one of the European must-have representatives that I was missing. great to see they will have lots of coat variants!
Common Wombat - was also on my wishlist of Oceanian animals, although not particularly high, I am excited about them! (Still think we need Emu, Wallabies, Kiwi and Tasmanian Devils).
Striped Skunk - very surprising pick, I saw them in a zoo recently, very playful and interesting looking. Solid pick.
Raccoon - Not that I wanted them, but they are cute and cant blame anyone for wanting them, their model and animations looks amazing.
Like I said before, I prefer animal packs, simply becuase more animals the better. Scenery is a bit too much themed for my liking, but I am sure some of the pieces will be very useful - those hollow tress and cave rocks? Love. I am also excited about all the new plants I spotted. We can never have enough of foliage.

But please Frontier, chill a bit with the Carnivorans. 3/4 habitat spots this time, that is a new record...
With the wombat and the bat, and what could be a decent amount of birds coming soon, you are somewhat forgiven.

I really can’t wait to see the new species in proper daytime lighting, but I imagine that won’t happen prior to the 18th.
What about animal showcases?
Looks like the NA theme, sorta
Incredible, I guessed the theme I had already thought long time ago

Obviously these are preliminary comments without having the DLC in my hand and I will write the negatives first and then the positives.
NEGATIVES:
After 4 months of abstinence I was expecting at least an animal-only DLC, so the classic 7+1, and instead we end up with only 4+1. Obviously I have never accepted the policy of these DLCs with such a small number of animals, and all the more reason this pack could be exploited much, much better, I don't mean that you had to make all the animals I had thought of, but the theme here was so vast that you could choose more and better. For example, the red fox, an animal I like, but always a clone of others already present in the game, has been exploited as already happened in the past to fill a slot with 5 miserable (numerically) animals. I would have liked it to be added later, not sure now that we have other foxes in the game, not sure in this DLC.
I would have exploited this theme exclusively for animals, for flora, for some habitat objects (for example the enrichment of the pumpkin with food inside that the animals must find), for some interactive statues for the guests. Instead, there will be "new" construction objects similar or otherwise quite useless (such as bright mushrooms, pieces of construction wood), unless it is a theme park, but since this is a game that must simulate one zoo, I don't think there are zoos in the world built with areas based on a spooky theme.
POSITIVES:
Finally as I had expected, ladies and gentlemen we have the animations for the flight, ALLELUIA!!!
An absolutely necessary dynamic, there couldn't be a zoo game without animals flying! Now there is the Egyptian fruit bats, I had foreseen the flying fox, that's okay, as long as you gave me a flying being. This opens up new perspectives, it will totally change the game, if the developers want it ... Seeing parrots, birds of prey and colorful birds will be beautiful and fun.
Connected to the first factor, there is the possibility of having larger exhibits, which can be used by guests. They are not modular as desired as I would have liked, but it is already an extraordinary achievement. I am not sure if we will have the option of using it with other animals, but only the fact that it is there too can change the dynamics of the game for the better, opens up new and very interesting perspectives.
The presence of the raccoon (I would not have included it in this pack but in a DLC dedicated to the animal neighborhood) could be the pass to the future presence (it absolutely must be there) of one of my favorite and very common animals in zoos, the coati.

Over the spoooooky moooooon! 
Please actually read the steam page/ forum post: The new scenery items are only „Halloween“ by a small ratio, the biggest part will be Romanian/ European Castle/ Cottage Core.Incredible, I guessed the theme I had already thought long time ago

also I found the skunk and the wombat in the trailer!
I think the fact they've added in a singular flying animal in this pack actually makes flying birds more likely, not less. Of course, it could be flying loops or static, we'll have to see, but I'm thinking they've got the plan in place, and are opting to see how the release of one "flying" animal goes in game play, and any problems that may arise. I'm fact, I'm pretty certain fly birds will be a December pack and an animal pack. They may not end up being full on habitats, but I do think we'll get them some way.
I usually hate new canines but with this one having so many colour morphs and unique sounds, I‘m actually really excited for it.
in fact, potentially they are pieces similar to those we already have, Europeans, castle...
yes also if that the way for frontier to produce aviarys It's absolutely fine cause a least we got them of course it would be much more fun in it would be like every habitat animal but yea let's wait!
