I am not really happy how Zoo Story 1 just suddenly goes "Supportless". Android users do not have access to Zoo Story 2, and the graphics I've seen for Zoo Story 2 are not as good as Zoo Story 1, based on picture shots.

The Prices for Zoo Story 1 are also really high, and gems are very hard to come by. I seem to be one of the last to sign up to play this game, for I get the impression by all the posts and removing of features that this game is old. There also seems to be a lot of unfixed bugs that need fixing. The game could use more features and a little tender loving care to re-attract attention to players to start paying for gems. The very bad reactions from players on the forums has led me to bring this info to your attention. All of your attentions. I'm well aware that you probably have seem most of these, but there are some things that have been overlooked and I have some suggestions to make that better.

Why do I think my suggestions are beneficial? Because they improve the game for the players, which will encourage them to spend some extra money on in-game features, which therefore further game play experience, and the players spend more money, and loops the process. In the process, more money is gained in the long run than if these problems continue to persist, where players are more reluctant to spend a dime.

First, I arise some common and uncommon problems. This is an Android Version Bug List.

There is a bug that allows players to build, move, and sell items in other player's Zoos.

There is a bug where the shoes of the little people who walk around the park underlap the edges of the paths.

Some of the food soil patches overlap other obstacles in front of them.

When you visit your or someone's zoo, sometimes, the people who walk around appear in random places and walk over objects, apparently out of sync with the actual board. They dissapear after taking a picture, apparently being deleted when out of sync with the board. The people can appear outside the Zoo. Any people who appear after the initial creation are in sync with the zoo.

A random out of sync happens when you collect food, and you loose that food, as well as the XP gained and the plant you gathered them from.

When collecting food, coins, or paws, if you press the object of desire again while the (working) bar increases to full, an additional energy/tour token is deducted from the energy/tour counter. This happens as many times as you press the object of desire.



Some of my reactions to the game:

The gem-priced animals are shamefully expensive. Breeding is double the trouble. This is a minus to the game.
The Roller Coaster and the Ferris Wheel are super expensive compared to the income you receive. This is another minus to the game.
The unicorn is the only animal available in the box. It is Ultimate Rare, and only the moderators and oldest members seem to be able to own them. I want one, but I'm afraid to purchase coins to buy them, only to waste money on useless doubled up items. Remedy this problem with an alternative way of purchase (recommended example/course of action below). No one is going to take a 1/100 percent chance to get one in this economy. (HIGHEST PRIORITY)
It's hard to earn money except by bonuses. Raise the income amount.
Energy is rare. Raise the Energy Level.
Some items are spendy and don't serve a purpose. Make a purpose for every item (Suggested Examples Below)
Little people appear in different places. Make the Entrances the only appearance/dissapearance spot for realism
Little people take pictures of Portable Restrooms! This is not really 'real world'. Get rid of the feature.
You can't film desks, chairs, tables, lamps, trees, and such. Add this feature.
There are no new animals recently. Add some new animals.
Expanding your zoo is expensive. Lower the price.
You can't gift gems or coins. Add the feature. (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
There is no way to get gems except purchase! Add this feature (like through Quests) (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
There is no Quests. I never got to do a quest! Add this feature.(HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
Pay gems to get to LV2 for Gem-Paid Animals? Bad idea... change it to coins.
Cannot purchase gems with coins! Add this feature. (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
Cannot purchase coins with money! Add this feature!
NO NON-CREDIT METHOD! ADD ****** FEATURE! (HIGHEST PRIORITY)
Missing Crucial features. Add items.
The Gate is always named "Zoo Story". Make the gate's name change to your zoo's name!
The unicorn is Unhappy... possibly angry! Turn that frown into an innocent and cute smile! (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!)

Thanks.

And having played Zoo Story 1 and to the point where there is nothing to do, I would like updates.

I like watching the people walk through the bushes. And taking pictures of the restrooms and other non-animals.

I thought it was off of people to take pictures of trees, and rude of them to walk all over my crops, hence I do not play zs1. :p

Wow.. How long did it take to write this Text? :) i like your Feedback.. I'm very sad that Zoo 1 is just supportless.. I really like the graphic of it and it was One of my First TL games, so i totally agree with you:)

02-06-12, 04:44 PM
Yeah, it took me 4 days to write it.

Well, I also think they should make a PC and Mac version of it and other games... I want to play it when on the computer... and be able to use ****** or Itunes to Purchase in game accessories VIA both pcs.

Donno Why Zoo Tycoon never had dragons or unicorns or some of what Zoo Story had. And I donno... Zoo story 2's creatures look too... cute? No that's not it... they look like they were not given as good amount of time in design by the look of the banner.

Kind of late to this, but FANTASTIC post! I recently stopped playing ZS because it just became a repetitive cycle of planting, collecting, touring, and moving items around. It appears that TL has fogotten about ZS with absolutely no updates, no chances to earn gems, just, NOTHING.
