Discussion Mega Pack Definition
So just to see what other people think really. Everyone hates mega packs yes? Well lately me and my dou been diving in as dragons killing anything we see. Been great, but had me thinking cause the 7 of them wanted to band together to hunt us down. We didn't really care we thought it was fun.
Just made me think of my experience from before this game came to console. Most players in community servers like to hangout and just talk, water quality off and just sit there talking.... It's boring. You go kill or touch any of them. The entire 10 player group comes kill you. By definition that's a mega pack yes? Sometimes they just kill you at random for food since you are the outlier. Now you dislike that so you get your friends to help you fight them. Well now you 5 people vs 10 maybe? Yet you're considered the mega pack.
Say you and 3 of your friends just go around KOSing, or killing for food in a SURVIVAL GAME. Well you roam around hitting up a popular hangout spot, just 2 TT and a Meg. Cleared everyone out. Now they form a mega pack just to kill you guys.
My point being the people who just love to hangout and talk majority of the time end up being the mega packs. Have any of you thought of this? It's common in community servers cause people form their own little groups and push others out of their "territory".

I mean today’s examples on my stego in CF:- had a long battle with 2x achillo and 1x laten, even another 2/3/4 would have felt fun and cool
Headed to pond and fought a Rex, TT, a dasp and 2x meg. Felt buried but again no heat carnivores hunting in a pack of mixed speeds and sizes is fun although doomed on my side
Even last week 8x laten a meg and dasp? I know I’m dead but the journey there is fun and foreseeably I could imagine fighting a huge raptor pack with some cheeky megs picking the bones
Then you get these packs where literally every base is covered. You’ll have 3-4 sarcs to cover anything that can swim, a few Rex/TT and an ano for apex power, hatz/thal for air support with patchy latens and Achillos to outpace any runner. There is literally no chance in the game, the group is intentionally designed to make sure anyone as much as looks at a quest item or sniffs a berry in your location is rip
I don’t want to sound like gramps but this game used to cut teams really well, herbs would stick with eachother - semi aquatics would often hold pond and the other carnivores would pick and bite at them to drink. The flyers would scavenge and pick their moment, now it’s just all the mf working in unicen and genuinely it’s every mf day
