I think a update where we can catch chickens pigs and other farm type of animals to then have to somehow get them to be tamed instead of being wild then we can breed and then kill the animals or collect things like eggs and milk from them i think that would be a fun thing to add to the game as not only would people have to protect their base they would have to protect their farm which would be more challenging with the blood moons. I myself and a couple of my friends have been looking for a zombie game that has the mechanics of farming with animals in it and i cant seam to find any which has been disappointing. So i thought id see if yous might add it to your game as i already love 7 days to die and have ALOT of hours in it as ive had it since it came out in beta and having farm animals would be so fun.
 
Where did you see that at? What does replacing one model with another have to do with "performance constraints"?

And to the OP, they are adding chicken coops, though I'm not sure we will be "catching" chickens, though. Time will tell. Not saying the rest won't happen, but I wouldn't hold my breath. And worrying about your farm wouldn't really be a concern as you could just make your horde base elsewhere.
 
I did a search on google on why the pig was replaced with boars. Not only were certain animals removed, but NPC types as well.

I wondered why the giant sized moth or hornet was removed, now I know why.

Again, what NPC types? There have never been NPCs other than traders in the game. What other animals? The hornet was crap. Just saying "Google" as your source isn't really enough.

One of the devs said the zombies will hear the chickens you're holding, so i assume we get to run after and catch them 🥸

The hornet was awesome, better than the vultures. But they did remove several zombie variants.

That said, they've said in the past that they're not going to add animal husbandry, though they are adding the chicken coop (though I imagine it'll work like the bee hive) so who knows?

Never said they didn't. And they've also added some variants too. But those aren't NPCs to me, just zombies. Basically, people just dogging TFP for no reason with no sources gets on my nerves.

That is true, faatal did mention that. Will be interesting if we can just pick them up or if they'll do something else.

Yeah, I just think that Sabin was referring to the removed zombie variants when they said NPCs (though I'd agree they aren't NPCs.)

Probably just a language/jargon barrier thing.

It doesn't say what types. What other source is there to get info from? They're quoting what's been said by TFP.

AI (Google or otherwise) is only as accurate as the data it uses. For something like a video game, most data is what users post, which means there is a lot of incorrect results when asking for info about a video game.

The pig was removed, yes. However, they have said they plan to bring it back with the new model they showed. But it's low priority right now. The boar wasn't a replacement, but just another animal based on what's been said about the pig.

NPCs as most people here refer to them are traders only at the moment. What people consider NPCs are characters you can interact with, so zombie variants aren't NPCs by most people's definitions. Zombie variants were removed and they have said why multiple times over the years. Basically, they redid the zombie models and decided not to redo certain zombies that they felt didn't fit with most POI and were limited use. Whether anyone agrees with whether or not they fit is a different matter, but that's why they said they didn't redo those models.

We will likely have at least a couple more actual NPCs with the bandit and/or story updates that relate to the factions. But they are likely going to be very limited in how you interact with them... perhaps just being new traders (quests, store).

To the OP, you'll get chickens, but that's probably all we'll see unless you count the apiary. Having too good of a source of food isn't good for the game even if food is already way too easy.
