Has anyone heard if there will be scenarios in ZT2? They don't mention scenarios in the press releases. I prefer playing scenarios. ???

The announcement includes the phrase "Campaign, Freeform and Sandbox". Although the announcement does not define these, I assume "Campaign" includes scenarios. I also assume "Sandbox" is "Freeform" with a "freeform unlock" since so many people use a "freeform unlock" in the current game. These are my guesses.

I think "sandbox" would be like the "kid's zoo" map from MM...

I noticed one of the screenshots says "african exhibit area". does this mean that you can design separate parts of the zoo into themes? Or am I just confused?
Zoo Tycoon is still the best Over Zoo Tycoon 2.

my guess is that you can name exhibits like in the original ZT but as to where or not you oculd then name a group of exhibits as a specific area... wouldn't that be great!

Wahey!I always wanted to do that in Zt
300G is only helpful if you run lots of games and edit videos, large videos
ZT runs easily on 5G 512mb ram
ZT2, is there a recomended system yet?

I was just in Game Stop yesterday (March 27) and the guy checked his computer, which said ZT2 was due to be in their stores on June 1st. :P

I hope this isn't old news...I didn't see it posted anywhere else.

This is a really new post but, I havn't seen ZT2 in stores, I think they bummped the date up, did they? Or would I be hearing "ZT2 is AWSOME! You can do this," blah blah blah.
The only thing that I can say about the number of animals is :frust: :evil: >:/ rrrrr! 30 animals! Thats really crappy!

It sounds really neat...but I'm willing to wait to see what they come out with as far as expansions and possible complete collection. I kinda pounced on ZT1 when it was newer, thus I had to just recently get the expansion pack to have everything. I think I'd rather wait than make that mistake again.

But I am really excited about it. :luv:
