Am I the only one who noticed that in the MM animal list, that the marlin doesn't look at all like its part of the game?  It looks like a picture I can find on Google.
Otherwise, great Addax! Yay! I've tried it, even though they don't recommend water, they will drink it.

Edit: Also, the picture of the leatherback turlte in the list is alittle different than the one ingame sceenshot on the front page of the MM2 section. Theres no sopts on the shell. Looks like they didn't finish the list and were in a rush. IMO.


Well, the animals in the game don't look exactly like the ones on the list. Look at any list, ES, AA, 'original' list, they don't look the same.

Real cool addax! I just downloaded it! I can't wait to play around with it! : :P :

The addax is very good, I like it's hooves. I think it is one of the most realistic looking ZT2 animals. Thank you very much BF!!!! The MM2 section is also fantastic!!

yay finally an update!!! I saw all the animals too, anyone notice anything about some of the animals?  The Pilot Whale and Beluga Whale are almost the same.  Except the Bleuga has a neck, and the Pilot Whale has dorsal fin.  The Pilot Whale is a little pudgy whereas they are streamlined in the wild.  It is very cute though.  The manatee is very interesting, I hope it can go in Wetland water too.  BF did an excellent job though on the animals; they look so realistic and I am very pleased.  Everything looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Can't wait for more XPs in the future!  I showed my mom some of the animals and she thought that some of them were VERY cute.

Yay! I downloaded the addax, and it works to perfection! Nice gender dimorphism too.

Yay! The site finally updated, and I couldn't be happier! Sure, some of the animals could be tweaked, but couldn't you say the same thing about many of the previous animals? In my opinion, BF did and excellent job!

PS: Has anyone else noticed that the narwhal in one screenshot has 2 tusks? Just like real life rarities that do!

Is it just me, or do some of the official screenshots seem a little... squished?

Okay, but that dosen't explain why the marlin dosen't look any at all like a BF creation.

As it is a very detailed fish, it seems as though the skin was drawn with more lines, to create a more disinct shape.

I noticed that! I wonder if it's a model varient, or just gender dimorphism...

Oh, I hope it's a model variant.  If all of one gender were like that I'd be VERY angry.  But, since I don't know yet, I'm still happy.  I can't wait for MM2!  The marlin does look a little...interesting...but I'm sure it'll look fine in the game.  The Addax is absolutely fabulous!  No complaints whatsoever except for that the addax icon seems almost a bit small compared to the other animals.  But, it's not a big deal.  What a great day!

Honestly, I really like the blue marlin. I think it's great looking, and it's probobly my favorite of the MM2 animals. I haven't looked at one animal yet, the white shark, only because I want one new animal (to me).

I noticed that a week back. Its very interesting. It could'nt be a gender difference, seeing how that it is simply a very rare occurance in both genders. It is probably a very rare variant.

Mabye, but I'm still not totally convinced.  Looking forward to the game! Yay for rare Narwals!

Yay! I love these animals more than any other expansion! They're SO realitic!

But I must say, the marlin looks more like a concept design, but it stll looks brill! :woot:

Don't know why, but the picture of the faklse killer whale looks really cute, my favourite cetacian in the expansion.

[modnotice=csleesburg]Okay, let's stick to the addax here, please. Any 'fishy' talk needs to be put in the MM topics section. Thanks. [/modnotice]
