Allosaurus and Diplodocus two of my favorite dinosaurs in game and I hope that Frontier will include a hunting mechanic where two or more Allosaurus will have the ferocity and strength to take down one Diplodocus as a team you might call this a theropod gang.

The predator-prey relationship I want to see in game

or multiple raptors attacking a hadrosaur
Hmm not sure on this one.... would prefer pack hunting with small carnivores more than the larger ones. Even in the video it was more about isolating a weak Diplo from it's herd until it collapsed from heat exhaustion, which is clever, but a time-consuming way to get your food! I'm not sure this would be worth adding to the game - unless it could somehow be combined with disease and heatwave (then I would want it - would give us something unique then!).
Edit: I stand corrected with this video (Mapusaurus snacking on Argentinasaurus) also showing another good reason to have sauropods rear up and stomp down occassionally:

I actually thought more about this since my last reply- could make it so if a dinosaur goes into hunting behavior and another of the same species is within radius, one of them goes into the squaring-off stance and the prey dinosaur turns it's attention there as sort of a distraction. Meanwhile, the other carnivore goes into stalking animation and takes the prey down. Upon killing it, both dinosaurs feed from the carcass. Large carnivores could be limited to pair cooperation, small carnivores maybe two or three. So picture a raptor squaring off to a parasaur and two others simultaneously stalk and jump it at the same time, taking it down in unison. Then all three feed from it together

That’s a good idea
