[ADDED!] Multiple party hunting suggestion

Support. I have a larger pack and living in the mountains I’m just getting to where I can keep everyone from leaving but not always fully fed ; especially in winter.( which is fun and a challenge and I don’t mind) but  I would love to move to a more difficult biome so I can stat my wolves faster but there is no way I could feed them all, if I could send out multiple small game parties it might equal the one large pray I can catch in the mountains.

I like the idea of the 4 trails so up to 4 packs can be sent

Support. It’s super tough to take care of my pack with just one hunting party.

Support! I love the slot increases with territory size idea!! While having larger packs puts money back into other player's hands, some players can't maintain as many as they'd like with how large territory can get, especially without working very, very hard!

I'm completely against gatekeeping thresholds. Maybe eventually, but the game's been out for nearly a year and barely anyone can reliably hunt in Glacier or Rainforest. XP accrual is balanced so poorly with the need for food acquisition that unless you're doing a lot of targeted/costly breeding, you have to choose one or the other.

Like it's been literal months and I have only just now been getting reliable hits on Large prey on the Taiga. Hunting does not need more 'balance,' it needs to suck less for everyone. :/

support!! i left a similar thread unknowing that this one exists, so I support all of these thoughts entirely

Full support! I felt the pain of running out of food because i didn’t have the time for a few days to do my 10+ hunts and  then desperately looking to buy food.

Just in case I didn't post here to show support yet, I am completely for this idea!   

It's been mentioned a few places but this seems to be the thread the moderators are throwing people back to so It's the one I'm going to try and bump from now on to keep getting support.

I agree with this! It would be especially helpful too when your hunting teams contain newer wolves with less hunting experience. I have this problem as my best hunters passed and my teams have fresh blood, so they aren’t bringing in as much food as I need to continue to feed my pack. I already had to go on a hiatus because I didn’t want to lose wolves because I couldn’t get enough to feed them…

Full support!

Getting to 50 slots is not an easy thing, thus it would not be that easy a thing to achieve, so yeah, full support!

big support! i actually think that letting the second slot open up at 25 or 30 spaces would be fair, especially considering how difficult hunting can get in winter. I think the game should allow people who have the time to sustain themselves without needing to buy food from others, and as it stands people with those packs sizes can't do that reliably. i would be okay with needing to pay extra to unlock the slot earlier, even, but as i stand with 30ish wolves, im really worried going into winter despite my wolves having decent synergy and stats, and i'd happily pay some GC to be able to hunt and feed my pack more realistically (bc realistically, a pack of 30 wolves would not only send 5 out at a time to hunt)

i think this also combines well with someone else's suggestion thread on here to increase max patrol size to 7, which i've also supported. I'd like for more wolves to be able to take the hunting role and actually participate, instead of having a bunch of extras sitting as unnecessary pupsitters
