I like this, but I am a little confused about the fighting options

this was a lot of fun

I'll almost certainly never battle them except for achievements. Even then, it will be begrudgingly. I rarely find the time to battle my pets. I certainly can't be arsed to battle the zillions of minions on this site.

I do love that we will have a collection place for them. I know it's in testing still, but I would like the zoo itself a bit more organized. Also, will it be possible to control duplicates? I have so many minions hoarded, that they're all sorted in different places because I lost track.

The 'play again' option is right under the postcard-thing that brings me to the main page; clicking on it is impossible, it just sends me to the main page every single time.

Feature wishlist:

1. The ability to prevent more than one of the same type of minion from entering the zoo (or at least an easy way to sort minions and spot duplicates that way.) Two of each type is an ark, not a zoo! ;)

2. At least one basic attack for each minion that doesn't require an elaborate cool-down period or a PhD to figure out what it does.

So glad I had a 1 week medal hiding in my vault!

So far: The import all button is kinda hit and miss, usually it does nothing, sometimes it pulls in a few minions but never all of them. I've had no problems sending minions to the zoo individually but it gets a bit tedious.

I've only tried one battle but no problems. The 'play again' link could do with being a proper button though, it's not the most obvious and it looks like it's not working for some layouts either.

Suggestions: It'd be really helpful to be able to organise the little beasties somehow, even the 'name/itemID' type sorting we have in vaults would be good. It would be really cool to be able to organise them yourself though.

And I agree, it would be nice to have it more visual but I can see where that would be an even more massive undertaking and to be honest it's perfectly ok as is.

Overall: Thumbs up, it's obviously not finished but that's what beta's for and there don't seem to be any huge, unfixable problems.

Can you put duplicate minions into the zoo or will it prevent you from doing so? I'm hoping its the latter because I want it to be a true collection with only one of everything

I like this new feature to Subeta, I think it's fun so far. I'd like to see what more could come from it. : )

I was finally able to try this out. I like the idea of it (and i like having a place for minions, that's fun). Maybe it's just because it's in testing, but the fighting was kind of blah. it wasn't visually interesting, at least not yet. i would still use the feature though, especially for any achievements that goes with it.

This battling concept is cool and I do like that I am able to store my minions somewhere! ^//^

I also agree with . Hoping with the final release, there will be more to look at. Possibly some sort of action sound gifs/clips? (i.e "pow" "bam", etc?) Although this idea has a lot of potential.

Like everyone else, I like it so far, but am curious to see what sorts of bells/whistles are going to be added. :)

Is this going to get updated, it's been 3 weeks of beta testing with some good feedback about many different things and no progress? Beta testing is supposed to be a bilateral effort...

I'm sure this has been mentioned, but doing an account search for a minion that's in the zoo doesn't show that you have that minion anywhere on your account!! This goes along with people wanting to know how the whole duplicate minions in the zoo thing works...If duplicates are allowed (or even if they're not), it'd be super helpful if the account search showed that the minions in the zoo existed on your account :P

Another person here interested in the zoo aspect but not the battling. I'll use it to ooh and ahh over minions but the battling aspect doesn't interest me. I'd prefer to have only one copy of each minion in the zoo (no duplicates) but with the battling aspect I guess it makes sense that people might want that.

One thing I will say is that I (and I think I'm not alone) have hundreds of minions in a gallery. I would love to have them in the zoo but it is just too cumbersome to move them each manually from the shop to my inventory. If there was some way to move all minions from one shop, that would be very helpful.

Other than that, this is great! Awesome new feature!

I like the minion zoo but it just looks really busy. A gallery looks all clean and crisp but the minion zoos are kind of like BAM words.

But I understand why they all need to have stats/options around them.

One thing that might help is if there was an option to show or not show stats? Also, instead of having a large "move minion to inventory" button by each one, perhaps there could be a smaller x or maybe when you click on a minion you could have the option to move it.

My two cents on this.I really like the aspect of the minion zoo and the idea of battling.But the battling could be more interesting than just seeing a colored meter moved sideways.

Also,I would love it so much better if minions could be put in alphabetical order.Especially if you put a large number in there.I'm hoping that this battling aspect will eventually lead to battling the minions that are already attached to our pets, and building up stats so they can be battling along with our pets in the BD.

That is something I miss on Neopets.That,and the NPCs that used to to shout out stuff while battling our Petpets.

I like the idea of having a place for minions that doesn't mean I need an entire gallery for them; at the moment that's what I have.

It looks like you've worked out most of the errors involved with attacks and fighting, I see no errors in removing and moving minions. I like that they arrange by 'level first', then 'alphabetical' (I think this would be a good default for the finished page.)

I notice while I'm battling, however, that the heals do not return health, but instead make the second green row grow instead? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the screen.

I also sort of agree with other users, that it would be neat to have a 'feed' and 'play' option if you're not interested with battling; something that could get you achievements or like, increase happiness, or they could find you random really common items? All in all, it looks good though.

this is a meh moment, neither good nor bad just not into it... its kinda boring

I just lost two of my minions. I added them to the zoo, and went to view it, and they aren't there. So now what??
