Maybe instead of one individual animal there are “sold” in packs in the exhibit market? (I should specify, not an actual DLC pack, but an ingame “pack”)
Personally I would like fish but as looping animated props, like the waterfall particle effects, but a little different. I'm not going to be breeding or looking at them too much beyond building for them when I want to, and I think having them figure out where to swim and or improving the exhibit system enough to have them would be a bit of a drain on the games ai resources. Let me have a spawner with say 20 fish that "swim" in a small 2x2 or 4 X 4 or 8x8 radius, give them 4 flexicolour channels, (each channel changes the look of five fish). Make multiple spawners for different species, and then Iet people stack them for interested and varied tanks. They would have no exhibit box to combat, or any preplaced props. I can then place my spawners anywhere - from a decorative pond, to a hippo or croc pool, to a naturalised penguin habitat - and I don't have to worry about the ai keeping track of so many fish, because they're essentially a moving decoration
Always the "quickest" wait of the year! And especially since this new pack seems to have everybody amped up on both the animals and the scenery I'd expect the wait to be even shorter because folks will be playing and sharing a lot more. Hah.
Honestly, the fruit bat is great for what it is. Sure, we were all hoping for birds, but... I actually prefer the flying fox to the fruit bat so this is an upgrade for me! Haha.
Honestly there more i look at the flying fox the more disapointing it gets. Its just a reskinned fruit bat, no new enrichment items or other stuff to set it apart, just the same exhibit with a switched layout. And while its beautifully made when you see it up close, you really dont notice its a different animal since its so small and fast moving.
I thought we already set expectations to receive one low effort reskin per pack? I see it as more variety for bats in the walkthrough exhibit.
Lol.
True, but i kinda assumed it would be the penguin. I never expected the flying fox to be something gamechaningly new or anything, but i hoped for atleast soemthing to make it different from the fruit bat. New type of enrichment items or a new style of the exhibit, something along those lines
Do we really think Frontier has a hard and fast "one monkey per pack" rule? I doubt they're so firm on that- it just hasn't been the right pack for two, perhaps.
More like one primate per year.
fortunately not.
Exhibits this year as a whole are just dissapointing:
A full year of cold is a bit much, but I do think that the next pack will be highlands and will be cold climate. Plus we don’t need any cold climate foliage, we just need more animals from the cold, making perfect sense for a cold climate animal pack.
