The only pets you're getting in this game is a gun called the infector. With those pets you really dont need anything else :P

I agree I love that feeling that your backs gonna be watched by loyal and protective minions



The pets could also be like Machine drones, or animals that are genetically altered or Terraformed animals as you said but you also have to wonder about where that quad appears from is it built in front of you or is it spacially compressed.

For mounts its hard to implement unless you already have the animations down like say a HellBug, you would need to build a new animation set for it, anew model, concepting etc. .

But for Organic pets you could have it that they are constructed if you have the genetic sequence for pet-a or you need to collect genetics from certain species to make your pet or even have a chance to make a random mutation from a pet I mean the Votan can Terraform a planet and its ecosystem whats to stop the new Human/Votan Technologies from making new species to anyone that wants that pet type. You could have the pets constructed in front of you like the quad and when your far enough away from you they disintegrate or return to whatever place the quads come from also another way is as you said is to have them jump into the vehicle.

Mechanical pets you could have it that they are constructed if you have the parts and power source for them to run off of.

That is a feature i strongly believe should be apart of their micro-transaction system. It would definitely be something i'd pay to have, alongside the fact of keeping it of course balanced, but at the same time enabling free ones which are not as useful compared to the micro-transaction versions*
