From now on forward we really need a bird, a monkey and a domestic in every pack IF only 3 packs are remaining.
The best bets imo would be an explorers, urban or children zoo pack for scenery, each with its own down and upsides.
Explorers would give research and education based scenery and one animal for jungles, deserts, mountains and somewhere cold, with the preferd line up being an SA monkey, dromedary, a mountain goat but himalayan thar fits best imo cause himalaya and wolverine,cause yall want it so desperatly.
Exhibit would be oceania to round out the continents, preferably the rainbow lorikeet.
Main draw here would be to add a little bit everywhere, giving us the much needed SA monkey the tropics pack didnt provide and either adding or """""""""substituting"""""" a desert or mountain pack if we shouldnt get one.
Urban would give us more general use and city like items, satisfying the very down to earth builders. For Animals, the gray hulman for asian, wild boar for european, brush tailed possum for australian and the canada goose or mallard duck for all citys would be great and props the only chance for the wild boar to still make it.
Children Zoo takes the W over the petting zoo map cause we are desperate for monke. Scenery wise this is pretty much anything goes and a more education focused second go at conservation.
For animals, a tamarin, south american coati, african dwarf goat and great white pelican with the budgie WE would propaply be the densest pack on favorites so far.
For animal packs, its propaply a toss up between islands, dry lands and mountains.
Islands imo feels like the savest bet, finally mostly completing oceania with the tasmanian devil, kiwi and a tree kangaroo, aswell as offering animals from around the world with the rhiocerous iguana, white cheeked pintail, shetland pony and an indonesian monkey, with all of sulawesi crested macaque, crab eating macaque, southern pig tailed monkey and java langur being great choices. Dream exhibit would be a reef aquarium, but more realisticly the bali mynah for the WE would do us a great service.
This pack would fix up multiple holes in the roster, mainly finishing oceania, a common petting zoo animal, a duck and a monkey.
Drylands feels like the runner up, with the burrowing owl and collared peccary being great candidates to flesh out most of the americas, the african spurred tortoise, dromedary and hamadryas baboon would fill in northern africa and the middle east and the patagonian mara and yellow footed rock wallaby would throw southern south america and australia a bone, with the budgies as the WE.
In the case of the explorers pack id swap the dromedary for the african dwarf goat and if this would coexist with the children zoo pack the children zoo would get another bird instead of budgies.
The main advantage of a drylands pack is that one of the largest blind spots rn is northern africa, while also housing arguably 2 of the most desireable domestics with the dromedary and goat. It also offers the opportunity to give non tropical south america a last hurray.
Mountains feels the least likly, but still realistic.
It would offer the most even split for the continent with the alpine marmot, yellow footed rock wallaby, gelada, takin, domestic yak and spectacle bear. My dreamer would mention the andean condor as the 7. Habitat animal, but to keep things more in line, a random goat fits better, choose what you prefer but my choice would be the barbary sheep. For the WE, a species of turaco would be nice.
And that would be my idears for what id like to see this year. Preference wise, Islands, Explorers and drylands would win out for me, but any combination of these packs would satisfy me greatly
