Okay, I was really happy when food bundles first came out because it was an easy, somewhat cheap way to get food to feed your lions if you didn't have time to hunt.

However, that was before the small carcasses, which only fill 5-10% hunger (if I remember correctly). The small carcasses were then added into the food bundles, and so, instead of getting three "big" carcasses, that could feed a fair amount of lions, you can sometimes only get enough food to feed 2 or three lions.

So now, when you could spend 100 sb to get a decent amount of food, now you can spend 100 sb to get almost nothing. Doesn't seem fair doesn't it? If your're getting a smaller amount of food, doesn't it make sense that the price should go down as well? Of course, you CAN still get 3 big carcasses, but that chance is incredibly slim.

This has annoyed me for a while. Just now, I bought four food bundles, since I won't be able to spend much time on the computer today. A majority of the food items I received were small carcasses, and the few big carcasses I got were the ones with 1-2 uses. So today, I spent 400 sb to feed LESS than half my pride.

In case this was TL;DR, in short, the value of the food bundles has dropped significantly since the introduction of small carcasses into the game.

So, here are some different solutions I'm proposing:

-Reduce the price of the food bundles. Not a lot, but maybe to 75 sb or 80 sb.

-Make the chances of getting a big carcass greater. I don't know how this would work with the coding, but it's still an idea.

-Make a separate food bundle for the small carcasses. I know some people like them because of the chance of stat gain. I don't know a price range on this, but I'm sure the mods/admins/whoever can decide on a decent one.

I don't want to just completely get rid of the chance of buying small carcasses, I just want the food bundles to be worth what they were before the small carcasses were introduced.

I support.

However one time it gave me a giraffe carcass - they have 10 uses :3

Ya'know, you could always buy food off other players?

That's what I ended up doing. I don't normally like to if I'm short on time since I have to go looking for them, so it's generally easier to just buy a bundle. And wow, I never knew there was a giraffe carcass out there!

Agree and support. You spend 100 hard earned beetles, it should be for something you want.

I've had a bundle before, but I never opened it up since someone bought it off my branch, but that is ridiculous! In a sense you are getting ripped off. You got my support! :D

I like the last idea, for having a small bundle and large! &&

I only got two carcasses... They only are 1-2 uses. Sure they're big, but I didn't even know what was supposed to be in the Food Bundle. I was a bit disappointed.

Support.
