Pack Hunting

[Pol_AuT_DeardySanchez]

It would be really great if JWE2 would have pack hunting, where, for example, raptors could kill larger prey together.

[Ryan]

you can expect that in JWE 4

[c_Alien]

Yeah, don't put your hopes too high. It is probably gonna be JWE 1 with additional stuff.
But I would like some realistic dino behaviour, too.

[Vincent]

in a new interview they seem to have confirmed it, "worked on a more dynamic hunting and fighting system, if a predator attacks a prey its alot more dynamic its in motion"

lastly

"we have been adding and looking into as well, group attacks for certain species"

It's been confirmed, though we haven't actually seen it yet. As long as it's not a canned animation, and is like JPOG it'll be good enough. In fact it would be good if the hunting in general was like that too.

Pack hunting has been confirmed, though what can and Can't pack hunt is yet to be known

I just hope they are not scripted, that's all.

It'll probably the same boring animation where you see the animals slide into position for 10 seconds before the animation plays and only has 1 way it goes per group. So one for Ceratopsians, 1 for stegosaurs, 1 for hadrosaurs, 1 for ankylosaurs, et

That or they'll go with the hunting in Planet Zoo, which I have no idea what that's like. I don't actually own PZ myself and I can't really tell what the hunting is like based on the videos on Youtube.

Also hope they don't go overboard with the territory system (making every dinosaur territorial); not every animal has a territory you know, some just wonder about in herds.

(Seems like they have, and made it very gimmicky to force the dinosaurs to fight more)

I realize I'm late to the party here, do we know where that was confirmed?

I mean. It's in the game right now, so I don't know what you're necromancing an old pre-launch post for.

No reason to be rude about it. I haven't seen it, search on the forums came up with this thread.

How was I rude? I just said that it's in the game and that I wasn't sure why the post is being revived when it was dead.

And we almost got what we wanted too. The only problem is all the dinosaurs that do hunt in pack use the same raptor animations which doesn't quite fit for anything that isn't a dromaeosaur. At least there's that mod that disables pack hunting for all non-dromaeosaur dinosaurs, and the cool thing about that mod is it makes them stop hunting sauropods with it too.

wait what do you guys mean, do you mean like if they're chasing the prey together and all? or just attacking it together, because i've seen them attack it, just not chase it.
for example sometimes they all jump on a (lets say t-rex) and all bite and the t-rex shake them off and all that, but do you mean chase the prey? sorry i dont really get it lol

they dont chase because the victim doesnt even run, once the attack has begun the packhunters are almost always guaranteed to kill their prey (for the love of god nerf this)
