Ngl I thought it was at like 20% and my heart was kinda sinking, because while it is detailed it wasn’t to the point where I thought 20% was a valid amount of space taken for what was on screen.
So the complexity meter actually gives around the same freedom as I originally thought, again not an ideal feature but 99% of people won’t notice it. Like by the end of the build there was what over 30 species in the zoo and like 300-350 rocks and other peace’s of foliage in the zoo, with tones of guests and buildings aswell for just 11% that’s insane maybe 150+ animal zoos can happen pretty easily.
The warthog enclosure that you used in this video was mine lol, I’m glad u enjoyed it. This is a fantastic video and been a long time watcher of your channel. You was part of the inspiration for me starting YT to begin with and I’m here a few years later with early access to planet zoo thanks to creators like you giving me motivation. Thanks so much
The thing people always seem to forget is that technically the pc version does have a complexity limit as well, it just depends on how powerful a pc you have. The main difference is how on console it will stop you if you build too much, but at 100%, your zoo should still run fine. Whereas on pc it won't stop you, but build too much and it'll start lagging up to a point where it basically becomes an unplayable slideshow. So sure if you have a super powerful pc you could in theory build a much larger zoo than on console, but if you only have a mid range or older pc you'd likely either not be able to do as much or have to play with graphics settings turned right down. The main thing for me that the pc definitely has over console though is mod support and being able to add custom content.
Awesome video! One thing that's worth mentioning is Planet Zoo Console edition will have mouse and keyboard support, so you can plug in a mouse and keyboard. I do this on the console version of Planet Coaster and it makes things sooooo much easier.
@@o_jopa_ they also didn't have any plans for planet zoo console and look how where we are! If i understand correctly PK isnt even a complete game for PC so i guess we have time.
Waited for years to get a chance to play this game. I'm so excited, thanks for the review! I'm also a lot less stressed about the complexity meter, knowing all that was only 11%.
First time player, console only player. I needed a new sim game to add to my Disney Dreamlight Valley playing. I love building, but there's a very hard cap in that game. I've so far been taking my time playing the scenarios, and I think I'm finally getting it. Besides the undo thing, I don't have to think too hard anymore what buttons I'm pushing to get stuff done.
This makes me 10x more excited for release tomorrow. The game looks amazing! And the meter doesn't seem to be a worry at all. I'm so grateful frontier is finally bringing this to us console players😭 its nearly time🎉
Hay so much m new to planet zoo but I’m gonna play on Xbox and I just wanna know but do you have the option to play with unlimited money and animal pontes
I'm glad it seems to be generally okay! The undo thing does seem annoying, but still. Also excited to see what people make now that more people have access to the game!
I was thinking about getting this game for the PS5 but I was hesitant thinking it would be very limited. But after seeing your video I went and got the Deluxe edition! Really looking forward to playing this myself finally, I played Zoo Tycoon for years.
If they could bring Planet Zoo to console , and I know it was built with it in mind buuut, Im hoping that means if we do get JWE3 it could be just as complex as Planet Zoo in some regards. Namely breeding. But I guess we'll see...
@@Zero6042 There’s no need for a third game. What are they supposed to do for a dinosaur park builder besides breeding which is already a pretty complicated thing
@@Zero6042 Y’all are expecting them to just pull a third game out their az. Considering frontier lost a lot of people that would be required for a brand new game. A third game would only be really need when new gen stuff comes out, which will be another 6 to 7 years
Im so excited to play it on console. I attempted on a very old PC but I don’t overly enjoy playing on there would rather on console or switch just for comfort. Thank you for the video love a sneak peek
I’ve been waiting for this game to come to console for ages! I’ve been building a lot with planet coaster on the console trying to get myself ready for the release! I’m so excited 😊
I can imagine the building being a bit tricky, especially at first... But with practice I imagine it gets a lot easier. But wow, I'm honestly impressed with how much you were able to include and the fact that zoo complexity only reached 11%. I mean, sure, there's going to be limits to what you can build, but on most PCs there are limits too (largely based on when lag gets unbearable). This really does look like a great option for people who aren't able to play it on PC, and it looks like console players will still get to experience the best parts of the game. Yeah, overall I'm impressed with how they managed to bring it to console like this. It's pretty cool. Not sure if I'll ever get the console edition (I'd need a current gen console, first). But it's nice to see how functional it is.
It doesn’t have mouse and keyboard controls? Yes there are games that do mouse and keyboard on console. Would seem to be weird this of all games wouldn’t. Edit: NVM IT DOES!!! WOOWOO!!!
I need help with the game. I played it for several hours today, built a normal sized zoo, open the zoo and suddenly, even only with like 200 guests, my game is not playable anymore because of the lags. Only when I have guests in my zoo, it‘s extremely laggy. I play on xbox series x, does anyone know how to fix this?😢
Console only player here. Also very new to the game. I’ve put quite a bit of time into it already and I’ve started diving into sandbox mode. I’m have a lot of trouble with lagging and fps. My complexity meter was at 6%, 2-3 habitats and it was already lagging and bugging out. It seems to only happen when I move the camera near crowded guests. Wondering if you or anyone has some insight. Thanks!
I have it on laptop but don’t play very often because I don’t have a very good space to play and my laptop too hot. Hoping with the Xbox version I will play more often as it’s so much easier (and more comfortable) to turn it on and play
Can you please tell me how you changed the education board animal names to actual English I can’t even read what the animal is because it’s in a different language
I do have a gaming laptop (I play Overwatch on it... talk about a love/hate relationship with a game!) but I always prefer to play cozy games on my couch with a controller. I hate gaming on a computer (I use a mac for work and there's only Civilization VI on it, but I don't play it much these days) and will always choose console if the option is there for anything not an FPS. My husband tried to get me to buy Planet Zoo for the PC but I resisted. I have a 6 year old and she loves to watch me play (and play herself!) Jurassic World Evolution 2 and Disney Dreamlight Valley. We sit on the couch together, me with an iced coffee and her with a snack, and we practice reading or learning about dinosaurs or whatever. That is my preferred gaming style and that's why I was absolutely thrilled when the console edition for Planet Zoo was announced. I'm okay with things taking more time or maybe not being as precise, because ultimately I'm here to relax and get comfy, often times with my kid.
Hey, can you help me out with the screen placement? It just shows brightness adjustment right now and I can barely read any of the control commands on the screen because they’re off-screen.
i have been playing planet zoo since it came out on pc i cant wait for it to come out on ps5 i currently have 4 house and 30 mins till it comes out i am so excited and i cant wait to get all the dlc again
How steep is the learning curve for building/habitat creation compared to Jurassic World: Evolution? Like as someone who has played lots of JWE 1+2, is this a game that would (after some time of testing out the controls and mechanics) be easy to play around with
Some console games are also compatible with keyboard and mouse if you have spare usb inputs. Idk if Planet Zoo console supports keyboard and mouse but if it does, you’re going to have a much easier time.
Do they not have keyboard and mouse support? I’ve never understood while the vast majority of these games that come to console from PC complain about how difficult it is to adapt keyboard controls to a console controller, yet no one bothers to even have to option of using the exact same control scheme by just popping in a wireless keyboard and mouse
This has 100% alleviated any concerns I had going into the game, and I’m absolutely going to sink way too many hours into it. I have actually owned planet zoo on PC, so this won’t be a first time, but highly unspecced for it, and it got to the point where playing the game was such a hassle and was really rough with lag spikes and less than ideal graphic settings. Investing in a PC capable of playing it to the degree I’d want to would be significantly greater than getting this edition, so I’m very excited to get started
Anyone else feel super sad thinking that this zoo was 100% full, and then lost it with happiness when they saw the 7%?
Ngl I thought it was at like 20% and my heart was kinda sinking, because while it is detailed it wasn’t to the point where I thought 20% was a valid amount of space taken for what was on screen.
WAIT: this entire zoo he made was only 7%?
DAAAANNNG! No one should even be worried at this point!
People underestimate the power of next gen consoles
Even older gen planet coaster wasn’t awful but when games are optimised correctly the next gen console’s rlly get to stretch their legs
Where do you see that? Lol I watched the video and didn’t see a %
So the complexity meter actually gives around the same freedom as I originally thought, again not an ideal feature but 99% of people won’t notice it. Like by the end of the build there was what over 30 species in the zoo and like 300-350 rocks and other peace’s of foliage in the zoo, with tones of guests and buildings aswell for just 11% that’s insane maybe 150+ animal zoos can happen pretty easily.

@@ripvanvinkle6881 well, ikr, but Planet Zoo wasnt Frontier's First console port, so it was "predicted"
@@o_jopa_ I don’t think it will either, but I still hope it does. That or I need to get a gaming pc. Haha
Is the actual gameplay any different, like is there anything on the game that the pc edition has and the console edition doesn’t?
Hello, sloth! 💚
The game looks great on console

Won't happen as planet zoo is in their title and universal owns jwe licensing
Y’all are really reaching for JWE 3 when it’s not gonna happen
@Mjsports3730 Jwe1 and 2 are Frontiers' best revenue producers. Why would they stop their cash cow now?

When Jurassic world Evolution 2 finally gets a Nintendo switch or Nintendo Switch 2 version that's when we know the game is officially finished.
Ok who’s going to tell him?
@@NiteMode-kx8wj I'm not talking about DLCs my friend I'm talking about updates
@@jurassictyrantkingYT JWE2 will never come to Switch lil bro
@@NiteMode-kx8wj everybody said the same thing about the first game too. Maybe unless it appears on the Nintendo switch 2 in 2025.
I hope they go the zoo tycoon route and make a prehistoric and aquatic game dlc type thing too
Game is on my wishlist on steam but defo getting the console version as I'm on that a lot more then my pc

Does anyone know any tricks to stop people walking through scenery object alongside paths on console?
I know it's a small issue but still...
Thanks
first time playing the game, finally in console
Could you tell me if it runs at 60 frames?
planet zoo on current gen consoles is a hint to what a jwe3 would be like!
This is the greatest news I’ve ever seen
How can you download blueprints? Brand new to planet zoo.
I play my PS5 on a monitor so I just use a mouse and keyboard!
What an intro xD
Impressive zoo honestly for a two hour build!!!
I can imagine the building being a bit tricky, especially at first... But with practice I imagine it gets a lot easier. But wow, I'm honestly impressed with how much you were able to include and the fact that zoo complexity only reached 11%.

It doesn’t have to be tricky. The console version supports mouse and keyboard! 😊
I've just started and can't seem to get an animal in any habitat I make...is there any specific things you need in your zoo before getting animals?
Does it play like the console edition of jurassic world evolution?
I only played JWE1 on the Switch but no not really, it's much more involved
I hope they add it to ps plus coz i dont have £40
It doesn’t have mouse and keyboard controls? Yes there are games that do mouse and keyboard on console. Would seem to be weird this of all games wouldn’t.
Edit: NVM IT DOES!!! WOOWOO!!!
Disappointed by the 30fps. Would have bought the game otherwise, but this would probably give me eyestrain and a headache :(

Does it support mouse and keyboard like jurassic world evolution? If so, then it will be actually easy to control.
Can you please tell me how you changed the education board animal names to actual English I can’t even read what the animal is because it’s in a different language
i'm just using my keyboard and mouse cause i know i'll end up frustrated
So for someone who would be playing this game for the first time period. How do people recommend it for playing it on console for first timers?
Can anyone help me, my display screen on planet zoo Xbox is not fitted properly and don’t know how to fix it ?

Do the path widths, gridded/ungridded have an impact on the complexity meter like it did in Planet Coaster?
Do you think they will add more to the complexity meter?
