TRACKING!!! (of animals)

Postby NaoWhut » Tue Oct 20, 2009 4:42 am

Tracking animals?
well, have you ever nearly
killed a bear almost and then
it runs off into the woods
never to be seen again? with
all that blood covering it you'd
think any smart hearthling could
easily follow the trail of blood leading
to it eh? And scents of animals
on trees! :D =D it'd be awesome!
like a branch off of ranging or
something. no way those animals
hold it in all day

Animals laying traps! that'd be
cool! a few scents leading to one
spot and BOOM 5 bears :P

Yes to blood trails.
Yes to animals attacking in greater numbers.

someone should be able to track animals by noticing paths, footprints, scat, broken branches on trees or places where a bear sharpened his claws on a tree, or a deer rubbed their antlers on a tree. it should maybe be a little more abstract, i don't know

Right click on a blood puddle and use the ranger style track? Sniff a pile of dung?

And maybe they could also add
animals mating and making a
bigger herd eh? or at least longer
animals are there more there are
that'd be awesome :)

like animal babies too.. guess this
would come with animal husbandry
maybe?
Imagine! 2 adult bears 1 baby what
would you do? kill the baby and laugh
duh :| herd of like 10 deer and
when it goes to 11 deer 2 fight for
dominance.

track down a herd of animals? i think
that would make the hunting on this
game so amazing and would make it
so you can't kill a herd of bison or a
family of bears alone!
the neccessary people for hunting would
be tracker, tank, killer, bard :D

(Edit)I meant deer but ok

I also agree with this, As much as I enjoy keeping to myself, It should be encouraged that there be hunting parties. This is not to say that players can't be so skilled that they can do it all themselves, with great effort and difficulty, but adding this element would make it so people come together more often.
