Catering to solo players

5 votes

The game needs a option where solo online is possible like fortnites solos, All I ask is for a solo official game mode with no option to group up or invite friends, community or official this game is plagued with players abusing high numbers of players(mix packing or not) and the game a lot of the time is unplayable. As someone who only plays solo and someone who has 2000+ hours the more frequently I play this game the more I dislike it because of people scared of dying and are in large groups who will just kill a solo player and which happens any time I play a large Dino so basically I’m forced to use the fastest Dino possible and just chip away which isn’t fun... I used to play officials only and can’t anymore because of large groups, even on community servers it’s same if not worse. Do you know how much solo players would play a game mode where it’s only solo players fighting the player retention would be off the charts and it would genuinely be so fun for solos just battling it out

I am pretty sure group players would invaide and use discord to co-ordinate rather then playing properly with actual sportsmenship but would it reduce the problem at all? Maybe. They wouldn't be able to see each other when one got out of view unlike official in-game groups that always know the general direction of their packmate. Might make it a little easyer to break up a just following each other unnoffical group. I do wonder if the abilities that require grouping would better be removed or changed so they activate when in proximity to another of your own species.

My comment is actually in agreement of this being a good idea by the way. I realized my bringing up concerns may make it seem a bit negative but I did upvote this to be an alternate game mode. I just think discussing the possible hurdles and side effects is worth considering.

I think a better idea is to remove mixpacking.

@Someone. You need to be more spesific then that. This game is designed to allow some mixpacking and even if you mean the carnivore and herbivore groups which aren't intended those aren't actually grouped within the game. They're just using outside sources to co-ordinate or following each other by sight.
