Dino groups and formation orders, would be nice : )
Ok we all love this game and have 37 pets each lol At least my tribe does, the problems are these..........

1. Releasing pets to feed after a kill and not noticing your tribemate is close and upon recall you get all his pets or he gets all your pets................. then its 1 messy dino orgy to sort out 1 ata time.


2. When traveling the T-Rexs clip though anything taller than a raptor and stall the entire operation : (

3. To many of the same pets ( like 7 raptors ) are unruly and a nightmare to keep together and accessible to check their inventory.

Yes yes i chose to tame and travel with a clown circus so im not blaming or flaming the devs/game.................... " I " chose of free will to deal with so many bodies and will continue to even ( and not complain ) if no new squad commands are implemented : )

For your consideration..................

1a. Each specific owners " recall " whistle is unique and ONLY his pets respond leaving all tribemate pets un-affected in any way. Whether you release to let them feed and recall them no other pets are effected besides yours.

2a/3a.. Formation commands, where you could choose which formation you prefer placing taller in front or rear and the basic formation......... for example, 10 pets feed and you recall with " J ".

Each group no matter the compilation could be ordered to attack or retreat whilst another could be sent in to mop up the last few targets from the air or any other group you feel is best.

Once back the raptors are lined up orderly on the left, dillos on the right, T Rexs/carnos in the middle lined up and accessible, any utility trikes or mules in the back. This way you can check each critter for prime meat or arrows or w/e you might be looking for in an orginized orderly fashion.

Traveling formations would also be nice, yes i realize you can mount 1 pet and loot at another to have it follow said pet byt that takes forever and is a nightmare as stated in a previous post. Id like the Akylo guy out front to clear the path then single file behind to walk on it.

Combat formations/order of attack...............

We all depending on the pets we roll with prefer a certain order of attack...

Tank 1st to get agro, flanking quick strike offensive teethy critters to flank and air support to watch over the whole mess. Some orders to each type of pet would be nice with a possible delay feature so the Vultures dont get there first and get chomped on trying to do the tanks job.

I love the game and will continue to slog through the manual orders and inventories like a good little tester but these are so possible options id like some feedback on. Yes it EA and this might be planned for the future, im offering NON-rage adult feedback in a polite manner............ NOT threating the devs lives if theuy dont add these features NOW like so many other threads ive read lol

TL:DR cant help ya if you cant read sorry : (

Agreed! I even made a detailed suggestion once about it. Making packs or squads of dino's... Would be a HUGE QOL addition to the game for those of us who just can't.. stop... taming :D
