Hey Grimm, looks like someone took a course on how to present information . Seriously though, thanks for taking the extra effort.

As for the animals, I would love to have every one of those. The elk is one I've wanted to include for a while. That giant ape looks terrifyingly awesome , I personally wasn't aware of that.

I don't know where we're at with the last two but I know the woolly rhino gets plenty of love. Thanks for the feedback!

Edit: I was bored and added more animal suggestions

-Cave Lion-




-Miracinonyx- (My Favourite)



-Pronghorn (Modern day animal that survived the pleistocene its also the second fastest land animal even though it lives in North America)-



-Horse-



-Hagerman Horse-



-Camelops (North American Pleistocene Camel)
It would be cool if it had the ability to go for a long time without food and water like modern camels.



-Ice age Jaguar-
It would be cool if there would be a small chance to be a melanistic black jaguar

Nice suggestion for species. We relate the Gigantopithecus (giant ape) could be at the origine of the Yeti facts/legend.

I have a suggestion too : Glytodontidae


I suggest to always keep this discussion as an official species suggestion.

Thanks for the advice @Vincecelt

@Grimm
I have changed the title to make it a bit more official and I have pinned this thread. Suggested animals seems to be a hot topic and since you have the ball rolling we'll keep this at the top for anyone interested in adding their own suggestions.

Awesome stuff here! Keep sharing your favourite animals you'd like to play as in here.

All of these animals are planned! Just looked it up

I have Animal Suggestions too! Here they are:

Sorry i don't know how spoilers work, i only know how you put them in



Short Faced Hyena

I'd love to see some expanse of ocean life if possible. The ocean is terrifying and full of options that would be relevant to gameplay. For example, look at this disgusting monster -

Truly an abomination, right? Imagine de-coning it and jamming it onto a spear. No one will be laughing at your fishing expeditions as you're goring them with your quarternary period shell tipped weapon.

The problem is that the animal you showed was extinct even before dinosaurs.

Anyways, I think Cave Lions and Short Faced Bears could be a cool addition

I Have More animals:



Langstonia

Awesome list, guys!

Apart from the woolly mammoth...

The mammutidae, or the "american mammoth"

I would like to play as megalania
google.com.mx/imgres?imgurl=ht…wgiKAAwAA&iact=mrc&uact=8

Ok, now I have a proper list:

Quinkana, because a 6 meters long land-dwelling croc is always fun:



Tylacoleo: Just read this: now.howstuffworks.com/2016/08/…-thylacoleo-carnifex-claw

Diprotodon, a giant wombat:



Pristichampsus: Another land croc (It died out 40 million years ago, so maybe it's a bit too ancient)




Barinasuchus: Another giantic terrestrial crocodile



Thylacosmilus: Saber-toothed cat marsupial edition:



Hippopotamus gorgops: A giant hippo. Nuff' said



Gastornis: A giant plant-eating goose that looked like a Terror Birds (This is also a 40 million years so it may be too ancient)

Gastornis definitely planned too

Nice! Will it be a herbivore?

I dunno about anyone else but anything that flies is fine by me. especially scavengers, i love that play style.

I submit to the pit of monsters, the Gigantopithecus Blacki. Behold, this fearsome ape like thing was a massive monster and was 100% a meat eating hunter-killer*. It would make a fine addition to hunt as I'm sure it would be a living nightmare to combat if scared or cornered. They grew to nearly 10 feet tall** and constantly tore limbs off of hominids and animals alike just to slake its cruel bloodlust***. Gigantopithecus Blacki are well documented for their horrific war-screams**** that struck fear into anything that heard it.

*herbivore.
**really.
***Completely unfounded and made up.
****Also, again, completely made up.
