Tracking System

79 votes

First off I don't think we need scent to be honest...
As of right now we have the ability to be able to track with our Sounds and Sight. If you ever look at the ground we all leave footprints behind. Its just not easy or as easy as we want it to be seen.

-I think instead of having scent we should have the footprints that dinos leave behind darkened a bit more. So we can actually track them.

It would bring all of the tracking together and not be as easy as seeing marks everywhere . You would have to listen, track and spot / track, listen and spot ect.

-If players want a bit more you can always just add a sniffing animation to trigger the footprints to get darkened.

lf at all they want players to be able to find eachother through features other than scent (since scent isn't planned), they should probably rework current features.
Dinos do leave footprints currently, and quite a lot of them, but they're nigh impossible to see. Don't need to be highlighted, just make them naturally more visible.
Or, they should work on sounds. I always hated the sounds in this game, if I knew how, I'd remake the sounds system in this game myself. Not only the dinosaur sounds are boring, footsteps all sound the same. The distance you can hear footsteps is wacky, baby footsteps sound the same as adult footsteps. Eugh. I think they need a sound designer.
