Description And in this next inning, the Carnotaurus Charges are up to bat once again. The bases are loaded, and they've just hit a home run, wiping out the opposition for the victory!


In all seriousness, this pic is based on an rising legitimate strategy in Primal Carnage. I've faced this situation a couple times now, and it seems to be getting more popular in some games...and it usually ends in the humans getting creamed.
From what I gather on chats, this tactic is called "Stampeding". It's where the majority of the dinosaur team are carnotaurus and its intent is to completely wipe out the camping human team in one pass and, if done in cooperation, very often succeeds. As it takes two charging hits to kill a human in PC, if the first carnotaurus in the lead doesn't get the kill, the ones following behind certainly will. There also seems to be certain rules to Stampeding:

1)Starts working best at around a 14-player game, and at least half the team are carnotaurus, with a few pteranodons to locate & distract the humans.

2) The carnotaurus in the lead is the pointer, where he goes, the rest follow. If the pointer falls behind for any reason, he is to fall back into the pack and the next one in the lead is the pointer.

3) You are to try to keep up with the pack and not dilly-dally around. This tactic is hit-and-run, not stay and pick them off.

4) Once a pass is made, the whole pack feeds at a carcass before continuing their rampage.


I've done it before, and it's difficult to pull off. But when it does, it is glorious plowing through the humans...

Man that reminds me of the time where MY team got charged. I saw them with my sniper, two T-Rexes, two Pretas and a whole bunch of those Carnotaurs. I ran like hell was right behind me (No pun intended) The team got wiped but I lived to tell the tale

Wow, that's an awesome strategy. I wonder what kind of counter humans have to that....

Not much really all they can do is unload all the gunfire into the carnotaurus ranks as they can before they're overtaken. Grenade-lobbing commandos and sniping scientists are probably their best hope.
