Planet Zoo would just be an amazing (and perfect) game (for me) when it has flying birds and full aquatic animals 🥺 I really dont want a Planet Zoo 2 in the next coming years.. but also dont want to wait 5 - 10 years for full aquatics and flying birds 😒
The more I think of it the more I just really dont like the idea if we are never getting these type of animals in Planet Zoo 😕 sigh.. why Frontier? Why?! I just really dont understand we still dont have them.. 😕 ugh!
I really really hope something in Frontier may be changing now that they will continue development of Planet Zoo and give us these highly requested animals still 🙏
I agree to the setting you mentioned...but I also don't think we will see it in planet zoo 1 ...:/
I'm not buying PZ2!
I just spent $210 on the game ($50) and the DLC'S ($160)....Planet Zoo is BY FAR the most expensive game I've ever bought.
OUT OF PRINCIPAL...I'm not buying Planet Zoo 2. Who is asking for that?
Plus I don't want to play PZ2... I literally JUST want birds and fish. It's not complicated. Charge double for the pack I'll still buy it!
Yes that was so nice
I think we should wait at least 10 years for PZ2. We've spent so much money on all the DLCS and the possibilities are nearly endless with modding. Look at ZT2, entire new systems were engineered in that game through modding alone, and the game still has a playerbase to this day.
I politely disagree entirely.
I am tired of relying on mods to fix a broken game. (In certain areas) modding will not solve the lack of full aquatics or habitat flying birds (at least not short term)
It won't fix the exhibit animals being animatronics and it won't fix the climbing system.
However, I agree when it comes to money spent on dlcs. But that's unfortunately a thing of our time. Imagine you spent money on Microsoft flight simulator 2020 to then notice there's a new incompatible one in 2024.
That said, in my scenario 2025 it could be an evolution like rct2 to rct.
A research/upgrade tree for staff would be great to allow for you to unlock certain species if you have staff at certain levels and specialties to unlock more advanced care and rare species to care for. Allows you to have the Conservation Credits but also to need unlockable criteria for animals to have. Not sure how the sandbox settings would have to be done to allow causal players to gain full access to animals. Maybe allow hiring of different levels of staff that have already specialized.
Cities: Skylines took 8 years to finally get a successor and received tons of DLC. I know it’s a different developer, but I could see Frontier following the same development cycle. It’d make much more sense to release a Planet Coaster successor seeing as that game is 7 years old now.
Well that's my scenario 2 and what I said is more likely haha
Might be late for this, but my top 5 would be:
-Aviary & Aquatic & Freeroam. So on top of birds and fish, i'd also like the option of freeroam animals, like the indian peafowl. In many zoos they just walk around the park freely and it's a bit sad this isn't possible in Planet Zoo.
-Staff improvements. As you already mentioned the staff cars, but i'd also like to see the option of for example upgrading staff so they become better in caring for certain animals, or become faster at their jobs etc. Maybe even have interns and stuff like that.
Also exchanging animals, for breeding purposes or whatever else. And slow down time haha, even on the slowest speed time goes extremely fast for my idea. Can't keep up with all them babies lol.
-Petting zoo. We need simple animals with petting animations. It'd just make it all complete. Chickens, little piggies and goats. The simple things that bring joy to the children.
-Get rid of the powerstations. Most zoos have their powergrid beneath the ground, no need to waste room with the stations. Maybe the watertreatment could be made smaller as well.
-More sandbox options. Like an ocean island map, maps with actual roads leading up to them. Just maps that would make it feel that bit more real.
"Like an ocean island map, maps with actual roads leading up to them. Just maps that would make it feel that bit more real."
Yes! Imagine a road or street on one or more sides of the map. Being able to add a car park, bike parking, a bus stop, maybe even a tram stop? So many possibilities. But so easy to get off-track and come up with fun ideas for that: it's a zoo builder game, focus on the zoo parts :)
NO PLANET ZOO 2
I JUST WANT AN AVIARY PACK AND AN AQUARIUM PACK
I would pay double for those. Planet Zoo 2 in like 5 years SURE! But not any time soon.
Planet Zoo still has a lot of species it desperately needs...
I agree with your points to improve the game, especially the birds ofc. :D, but also the staff behaviour, it's really gotten very poor attention in the past years, from their movements to how they care for the animals and how unrealistic it currently is, from care to transportation, holy crap the tiny transport boxes are NOT cool anymore, imagine if the vet had an actual transport vehicle, image if we could buy all kinds of transport vehicles for our staff. And growing animal food ourselves. I also think it would be fun if keepers could get experience in caring for certain species or types of animals, they would become more efficient, provide more interactions to the animals, and the animals would be happier. Whichever scenario will happen I will be super excited and I know Frontier actually does do something with our feedback. The game is so big already but still has so much room to grow.
I disagree with being limited on animals, I feel like that would heavily stunt the early game (assuming you'd get the same set of animals, and have to work your way up from that.) One of the things I love most about planet zoo is the variety to choose from, and being limited in that for most of your franchise zoo would make the game kind of boring.
I mean limitations in terms of certain aspects. The choice would still be hugeeeee
This is true (especially for the base game). At least one thing that might help is that the starter animals are continent specific (so while playtypus might be a restricted animal in europe, it's a starter animal in Australia). Also it would be cool to have some sort of 'rescue animal' opportunities, where there is a chance you get the opportunity to rescue a restricted animal that was rescued from customs/as a pet, etc (which would make use of the 'rewards' animal tab and the source of the animal). Just somr ideas to keep the early game interesting :)
@@forest7372 I've always theory crafted about more mission based content in franchise mode, like as you said, maybe being assigned to maintain a group of endangered animals, or something like the public release milestones :))
I would love to have a tech tree system - maybe in a spider diagram format, maybe certain animals or types of animals, or types of staff have to be unlocked with conservation credits (for example).
so as an example, you could follow the "Bird" branch, and have exhibit birds, exotic flying birds, birds of prey, waterfowl, bird education talks etc. Or an "Aquatic branch" and have the option to unlock semi aquatic, fully aquatic, exhibit fish tanks, shark tunnel guest viewing, etc. and by unlocking each thing, your trade center options will expand, and your guest interaction options will expand. This would allow players to create purposefully niche zoos, where its only aquatic animals, or only flying birds, or only marsupials, or only primates, if they so wish.
(im not sure how well I have explained this concept)
My list:
1. Better path system. Please for the love of god, give me a non-frustrating path system, my computer hates mods!
2. Free roaming for the larger exhibit animals (like snakes, lizards, etc.) and birds/bats.
3. If there must be loops, a loop area that we can free-build around. No more exhibit boxes!
4. Aquatic animals.
5. Petting zoo.
6. Objects interfering less with habitat space.
7. Social animals sticking together/interacting more (might have already been implemented, haven't been able to play the game in a while).
No Planet Zoo 2. The game is so great as it is, I’d love to just have updates and DLC for years and years to come.
idk. still loads to optimize
@@RudiRennkamel If it did happen, I would hope that Frontier listens to your feedback and suggestions first! 😊
I agree we need staff vehicles, like the golf cart type the use in real zoos. Also the climbing mechanics need an overhaul to make them more realistic and less janky. Would love to see waterfowl floating around on ponds and lakes and maybe koi swimming in ponds too. More keeper interaction with animals, maybe keepers hand feeding animals and or grooming them. A filter in the Animal selection tab so that we choose animals by region. Guests wearing appropriate clothing for the warm or cold weather/ region.
Well, some of these things could be added to Planet Zoo:
- Improved water and special effects placement. Get rid of the black nipple-like objects and just include clearly visible directional arrows and orbs in a special "placement" mode, where effects can be selected and moved within other objects without unintentionally selecting the other objects. Should also be able to influence the direction of rivers with more realistic looking waterfalls, rapids, etc. Perhaps with some automation.
- Flexi-material to change object material to wood, metal, plaster, etc. and more ubiquitous use of flexi-colour.
- Actual seasons with seasonal variations for each plant. Winter looks really unconvincing when snow just falls on deciduous trees with all their leaves on them. Foliage should just be a separate part of trees so that we have a lot more varieties of dormant/dead trees.
- More automated, procedural options for quicker builds. For example: a custom brush for placing different types of vegetation with size and model variations all at once. Possible controls for placing rivers with rocks.
- More realistic guests with some demographic variation/controls. You see the most random groupings of people that don't resemble actual families. European zoos aren't mostly Europeans, same for Japan, South America, etc.
Also ich finde sprichst wichtige Punkte an😊
Vorallen hatte erst letzten alte Zoo Taycoon gespielt mit dem Add one, war das so nice.
Ja das sich die Pfleger sich spezialisieren ist normal das es gemacht wärden müsste:)
If we ever get a PlanZoo 2, i want Frontier to take more care for the animal collection and selection. Now,, majority of the animals seem copies of base game animals. I specifically want that they focus more on conservation status as well, or at least have a proper mix of status in the base game. I also want them to include animals that weren't in the base game, but also look at the selection of animals put in the base game (Honestly, we didn't need both the Grizzly and Himalayan Brown Bear, nor did we need Springbok and Thomson Gazelle and Bonobo and Chimps).
well bonobos and chimps are two completely different animals so thats not really a great comparison
Conservation credits might be unbalanced but dont put animals behind an unlock wall, people like me who have only a limited number of hours per week to play, cause i work 45 hours a week will be spending soooo much time to try and unlock an animal i just really want in a zoo. This is one of the reasons i dont play a lot of multiplayer games, because most of them need to grind to get extras, i dont have time to grind, and by putting a grind behind getting animals will mean i will lose interest in the game, and im sure this goes for a lot of others too, you put a grind behind certain animals, then a lot of people will loose interest when they cannot unlock their favourite animal as they only have 1 hour a day to play.
PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T GIVE US PLANET ZOO 2! Let it rest for at least ten years. We've reached a point where we have a lot of animals already, both with mods and without them. The modding community could grow so much, it can even rival ZT2's. We could have everything with that. Also, getting a new zoo game every few years means that we'll get the same animals repeated. People won't generally care about frying birds or "exotic" animals when we don't have the most basic ones like lions or tigers, and Frontier knows it. Basically, making PZ2 could be their "escape plan" from giving us birds, they will just make a new game and get everyone excited and earn money without messing with it. It's gonna be tigers, lions and gorillas all over again. No kiwis or crested porcupines. Just the animals they want to make until PZ3.
What is going on with everyone relying on mods. I really don't get it. As much as I respect and appreciate them. They can't fix a broken game! It would destroy the accessibility of a game. It would make it harder for casuals. And it would make further support problematic.
I learned my lesson with ZT2 and Cities: Skylines. I stopped playing both because I couldn't stand playing without mods but also I didn't want to spent hours each time to get the game to run.
Guess I have a new video topic hahahaha
@RudiRennkamel Broken game? PZ cannot possibly have every single animal species on earth. That does not make it "broken". If you want an animal that Frontier didn't make, you can make it by yourself. That's actually beautiful.
And spending some time to download some mods is a small price to pay compared to having a new blank slate with only basic animals.
In fact, if you are so bothered by the fact that not everything is made by the developers, consider the modders as more developers. Mods are essential completions of the game from now on.
@Rudi - Well, if the developers’ ultimate answer to some of the community’s most requested features would be simply to make an entirely new game that we would then have to pour more boatloads of money into, then I’d rather stick with the mods. Just as you don’t like the idea of modders attempting to “fix a broken game”, I don’t like the idea of greedy companies making a sequel of a game just to implement features that could’ve (and should’ve) been a part of the original. 🤷🏻♂️
Also for workers: better pathing. In Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, we could paint areas for employees to clean. This current system of assigning stops means trash gets missed. Plus , they spend too much time getting tired and traveling to rest areas, leading to wasted time (connected to your point about worker vehicles).
Also high on my list: 1. Power and water lines. This system with circles is dumb (same for audio circles). 2. New engine for pathing and its interaction with terrain. Make path connections to terrain simple, and let us use flat roof tiles as paths. Would save us SOOO many hours. Applies to Planet Coaster too.
Love your ideas too.
Thanks for that great comment:)
I hope they won't make pz 2 because we spended so much money and time on the 1 and I'd wish they would just improve the graphics
Well idk. Could have said the same about cities
I wouldn't mind a pz2 if i can transfer my purchased packs over or something
$210
- base game ($50)
- DLC's $10 x 16 ($160)
The thought of Frontier trying to shill out for more money is so disgusting. You already took my money now make the current product BETTER.
Fish and Birds.
@@sampicano FAX
@@JakartaZOO It's nice to see that I'm not the only one who feels that way
That Animal Trainer and Attraction Arena really needed to make zoo more lively and attractive
AND PZ2 is a continuation of PZ, I don't wanna wait for all the rosters again.
Your channel is my go-to for relaxation.
Something I'd like to see is natural feeders for herbivores. Animals can already drink from ponds in their enclosures, so why shouldn't they also be able to graze or eat leaves and fruits off trees? I would love to make more nature reserve style parks and this would be such an important part of it.
I definitely think there needs to be more of a focus on gameplay and less on aesthetic. At it’s core this game is really for building. I enjoyed years of Zoo Tycoon 2 trying to beat all campaign scenarios to unlock new items like the conservation breeding center with gameplay benefit, which kept it interesting. I can’t seem to stay interested in Planet Zoo
I think having a PZ 2 by 2025 is a bit too soon, i feel it would result in the same disjointed slapped together game as PZ. But waiting 4 to 5 years for free flying birds and fully aquatic animals would be a death sentence to the PZ franchise, so damned if you do, damned if you don't.
If we do get a planet zoo 2, then i really hope we get some remasters for some of the animals, and in my opinion, the cheetah is a must because it is just too slow,
You should work for frontier 👍🏻
Nice video, well researched. Although I completely disagree about the milestones for Planet Zoo (like cities skylines). Will be so annoying to only start a zoo with same animals available all the time (even with changes by type of map), because starts getting predictable and all the same, so you can easily get bored and give up playing the game.
About Blueprints I prefere the way it is right now.
Agreed with needing fully aquatic and aviary, improvements on climbing, etc.
I would definitely do milestones different. The beginning is not like super duper little, it's more like a small amount of animals would be restricted. You still would have 100+ animals to chose from.
A foliage brush would be nice cause I’m lazy 😭
Please no Planet Zoo 2 🙈🙈.
I would take it
Ditto ^
@@RudiRennkamel Planet Zoo 2 I like the sound of that it's music to ears
(comfort marc) there there chum it'll be okay
Seriously, I don’t want the first game to be forgotten in community by a Planet zoo 2
I think the inclusion of underwater pathways would be amazing - a great tease for aquatic animals. Similar to the underwater pathways in Roller Coaster Tycoon 3
Really great Video😊 A big respect that you bring so much good and interesting thoughts into it. I don't know which Version can be more likely, but anyways. I hope Frontier will find a way that most people, also me included gets a halfway good solution🙏 The Game and the community deserves it.
I would like a Planet "engine" in which each Planet game is relatively equal. (Planet Zoo was more advanced than Planet Coaster) I'm saying that they all need to be like the same. Just how RCT3 with Soaked & Wild was.
Well if planet zoo 2 ever happened I think they should do DLCS where instead scenery pack and then animal pack they should do a scenery pack with 8 animals so that way we have secerny and then 8 animals instead of having to wait for different pack types
I think a sequel could also be used to overhaul the exhibits, I think making them more exiting would be neccessary for a good sequel.
Yeah they didn't make my top 5 but it's a Def top 10 for me
I hope this will get into the eyes of Frontier.
Why are some people saying Planet Zoo 2 would only have basic animals at launch? Didn't they watch or play JWE 2? It had all of the animals from the start, the same would apply to PZ 2. Plus we could finally have flying birds and fully aquatic species. It's obvious the current game isn't supported for these inclusions. PZ 2 would overhaul everything and fix that problem.
yup 100%
staff vehicles. But also. I am still extremely dissapointed when it comes to the water and the animal behaviours.
No egg laying (even zt2 had it) No "realisim" in the ways I find important when it comes to zoo building.
the 4 meter path to be the smallest doesnt make sense either.
AND how hard it is to change the environment and then put paths on it. Most of the times it comes up "not able to place" or something similar.
I don't understand why, but the dioramas maps are bugged in my game, I just can't play it
I would appreciate a more engaging franchise system with realistic trading options and animal availability depending on your level of expertise, like you suggest. I also don't see the point in having several connected franchise zoos (allowing for "farming zoos") instead of seeing each zoo as it's own entity, maybe with different focus areas in education, conservation etc. I'd love to have more incentives, like being able to have certain animals as a reward for certain achievements. I disagree with your view on staff, though. At some point, too much realism gets overwhelming (for a casual, animal-focused player like me! I never liked the theme park games with their focus on visitor experience, and I never play sandbox mode because I don't see the point of getting everything for free), and I feel if you have a large multi-species safari habitat, it's not too much to ask to just go with the logic of the game, create a workzone and have a food prep kitchen nearby. It would be more realistic to only have one or two of each staff buildings, but why not place a lot of them all over the map to make things work more smoothly? I don't see how details like staff carts would add to the game experience. Staff management is annoying, too, although I would enjoy some feeding shows....
I would love it if we could specialize staff-training! Please let me train a keeper to auto-trade animals to prevent overpopulation and inbreeding!!!!!
Oh yeah 😍 what a great idea
@RudiRennkamel how good of chances do you think of us getting a Planet Zoo 2 ?
Or do you think it’s possible that the first planet zoo could keep goin forward with avian birds and fully aquatic animals ?
as said - if i were frontier, i would go with scenario 2
@RudiRennkamel so you mean the idea of a new planet zoo game in 4 to 5 years? That scenario?
Scary how early I am
Me too 😄
you two would make the worst couple, glad you found each other
they need a new engine
And also. planet zoo got lazy with their animals in the dlc´s.
It´s just the same skeleton, nothing new. Movements are not really smooth over the environment or objects. Or even interacting with the toys they have
Can you beat a t-rex in a arm wrestling match?
T.rex is stupidly beefed up but can't flex their hands beyond a certain point. Meaning to win, you might have to break their arm. On the plus side, if you're lucky, you might not be able to lose, either. That depends heavily on table and relative arm placement. If the T.rex can move your arm enough, it will win. Hope this helps
Can't reach it
For the algorithm
