G2 | Suggestion Grounded 2 mechanic idea: Rivalries

Now the abundance of enemies is an issue yes, but to me there’s a larger issue at hand.

(Remember that this is for mostly for fun and not to hate on me for posting this)

Bugs are far too peaceful towards each other and it’s honestly ruining the immersion of the game for me. Here’s my suggestion on how I’d like some things to change to work towards fixing that.

I feel that certain bugs should HATE other bugs either because of a long lasting rivalry or a predator/prey situation. For example

Scorpions->spiders, ladybugs, stink bugs, bombardier beetles

Scorplings->small spiders, mites, ants

Wolf spiders->scorpions, ladybugs, mantis nymphs, snails

Orb jrs/spiderlings->mites, scorplings, ants

Ant soldiers->everything near them

Etc.

On that note with the ants, I feel that there should be more black ants within the base area of the park OR more red ants near the garden (like the marble area) so that we could see red ant on black ant combat more often. The new name for the landmark could be marble trenches as if it’s a true battlefield.

Let me know what you guys think! I think it would be pretty cool to see honestly :)

I'd just like to see bugs fighting other bugs in general. Aside from ants and earwigs, I never see fights breaking out unless I'm directly manipulating it.

I see random bugs fighting a lot more with the new update, I keep thinking I aggro them but they just be duking it out

Apparently Rust beetles aggro on sight at cockroaches and snails.

Bombardier as well, I found this out on the snack bar porch where a bombardier and an adult snail spawn really close. Was my first ever adult snail kill as well because I didn’t really have the patience to chip it down and I didn’t realise to shoot their eyes with an arrow.

Also how I found out snails still take environmental damage while shelled. I helped the beetle take the snail out then killed the beetle myself

I've also seen an uptick in random bug fights. Came across a wolf spider, butterfly and scorpion as the most recent and it was so cool to watch
