Remove 99% of blackberries

Hey there, I'm one of your alpha testers and I have a suggestion - make blackberries fairly non-existent.

Why? This will make it more like 'survival'. Instead of walking 5 feet and finding a patch of 1,000 BBs (yes, I'm exaggerating), make it where we walk 100 feet and find 1 BB bush. When someone loots THAT, then the bush is gone and will spawn (randomly) elsewhere.

This game's survival is too easy (in terms of food/water).

maybe once loot respawn is fixed... otherwise that's a death sentence. Plus energy still drops way too fast to remove blackberries.

It might be a death sentence to someone that doesn't already have a bow and charcoal. But for that person, what are they really losing anyway? Not much.

Food is hard enough to find. A single can takes 100 bulk which is a lot for a new person, if even a new person finds a can of food.

Loot is hard as fuck to find. Since day 1 I haven't found a backpack or any useful loot. I barley see any hatchets or cans of shit.

Kill a deer. Drink some water. Problem solved.

Can't kill a deer? Well then I guess that means you'll die until you can. Welcome to survival!

Kill a deer, don't have anything to fucking get food out of it. Welcome to survival.

i don't even eat blackberries, it's tedious and annoying. that's why i hope they never add an eat 5 or 10 option, then there's just no reason to ever hunt for food or water again.

And that's part of the reason I'm suggesting this -- people that do eat BB's will just complain that it's annoying, and they're right . . . it is.

Taking away the BB will mean they HAVE to go get food in some other way. It adds a more stressed atmosphere if they have to actually work (in a fun way) to get it.
