Please don't break my heart (and sanity) again.
Me neither tbh. Yes i want pelican and duck and things like grey crowned crane and blackbuck and Palla's cat, but my most wanted animals are from SA at this point. The rest would be just nice treats.
Nah the reaction made no difference im quiet certain on that. Pretty sure you cant just deceive such big decisions on a whim
I'm leaning towards this. I'm pretty sure it takes more than 3 months to make DLCs, and I believe it's been stayed before that they plan future packs prior to releasing the previous pack
Would love this. 12 + anniversary animal. Makes 200 total right? And everyone is happy. Well except for the Aquarium and aviary people.I'm really struggling to think of any theme that would justify 200+ pieces, have some of the more standard "scenery" items (e.g., wall/roof set), and would have broad appeal though. There's plenty of scenery gaps but nothing that feels essential as far as a region-focused DLC is concerned. And, again, I'm focused on broad appeal here. What would the most amount of players from all over the world want? I'd love a Rustic New England Scenery Set because it would help me and my builds but... That's not a fair request, y'know?
So what I'm kinda hoping for is a general worldwide animal pack with, say, anywhere from 8-12 species in total. Probably skewing more toward LA/SA than any other region but with at least half the pack for other animals worldwide. And... "It's not just the animals that are going worldwide! This new pack will give you access to 60+ scenery items to decorate and theme your zoos wherever your zoo might be!" I'm thinking pretty general here. And pieces that might already add onto existing content, or that may have been scrapped from earlier packs. More temple rubble. Those long-lost Southeast Asia Animal Pack signs. Hotwire. A few pieces of new foliage. A new editable sign or two. New mesh pieces. Parking lot lines. New railings. Simple things that don't hinge on cultural research and are pretty consistent worldwide.
And for the free update? Maybe a scenario editor. Those binocular things so that guests can see animals better from afar. Flexicolor versions of existing content. Scaling is my dream here but I've given up on that one at this point. Hah.
Works most likely already begun on the next regardless what like 20 percent of the playerbase thinks of domestics. I highly doubt in the timeframe of a day or 2 persuaded frontier to make another because the forum thinks it's a bad pack. People asked the same with arid pack saying frontier should rethink on doing so many ungulates because of the bad press.
I think they knew that some wouldn’t like the domestics pack, but they planned it anyway because lots of people did want it and whether people argue it or not, petting zoos are a part of many many zoos so they do deserve a pack. Seeing how this pack doesn’t have any new rigs and probably uses a lot of the same animations as other animals, this feels like kind of a filler to buy them time for the grand finale, giving almost everyone at least 1 animal they want. The community just needs to get past this obstacle of a pack to get the good stuff.
They plan out packs well in advance so I think it's far more likely that they just need more time with this one. We know from early leaks that they start developing the next pack before the next one is even announced (e.g., the bear from the SEA pack leaked the fall before it was released).
I don't think it's that unpopular actually... getting something that more or less amounts to a South America 2 pack is something a lot of people aren't really fans of... personally, I'd sooner go with a Western Hemisphere/New World/America's pack...
Id say its a pretty even split of people who want the final pack to be a dedicated latin america or worldwide pack
Doesn't the feature heavy update balance out the simple lineup of animals though? I can't imagine animals encounters with at least a dozen animals is as easy as previous update features.
What's interesting about this pack is that everybody can pretty much unanimously agree that they wanted the features and a lot of these scenery items. Like, nobody's saying it's a "bad pack" (or rather, most people aren't haha) so much as they just... Were sad that they wouldn't get the (insert animal here).
Yeah but i kinda wanna argue that there are probably dedicated people for working on the animals, some for the scenery and some for gameplay stuff.
