Right,

So just a heads up, i got over 2k hours in this game. Been playing since the start so take care.

Essentially the game used to work perfectly fine with nothing more than T, U and J.

Now, you are forced to use the group whisteling or you cannot control your dinos.

When you are ''Loged in'' to one of the specific groups via numpad which has just 1 member, out of lets just say 200 dinos that you own then all your commands wont be heard. You need to tap into ''No group'' or a group that isnt in use. Even if you dont want anything to do with group whistling. You now have to look into it.

So new players will have to look into the mess that is ''Group whistling'' if all they want to do is use U and J like they would have befor.

If i am in a tribe and one of the members puts a single dino in any of the groups it will mess with the entire tribe. Not beeing able to control dinos when i am unsure what group they are in. I guess for people who never play in a tribe and are just lame solo's group whistling doesnt have to be so anyoing but for tribes... dude wtf is this system?

Also, i have had situations where a dino will not react at all to U / J even when he is in no group and i use U when logged into NO group or when he is in a group and i log into the specific group whistle.

I have played this game for over 2.2 k hours and i have never been as helpless when it comes to controling my dinos as right now. I did everything that you claim you are doing with group whistling without any of that befor the game forced this broken system on everyone.

Also, one last thing i really need to get off my chest. NOBODY USES GROUP WHISTLING.
NOBODY IN PVP USES DINOS, NOBODY IN PVE USES UNMANNED DINOS FOR COMBAT.

Because the AI is so pathetic.

Simple and easy to understand, group whistling doesnt help with controling groups because of the poor AI and does nothing but piss off everyone who doesnt want to use it.

Having different groups of dinos to attack anything in this game is a bs tactic and not practical at all. Have you ever seen ANY dino in this game when on follow in a group of 5 + ? Do you even play this game? 2 ptero on follow is enough to get stuck eternally....
What situation would you control more than one group in? Are you some marco savage who has 100 dinos following him at any given time? WTF?

Incoherent rambling STOP!

sry xD I just got super frustrated because everyone knows this system is nothing but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and you act as if it is perfectly fine and like everyone is using it xD
EVERYONE IS IGNORING THIS POS SYSTEM!!! OR getting pissed off about it because it ♥♥♥♥♥ your game up.
