It's not being harder that makes me say no, its just that probably one of the reasons that makes a lot of people continue playing after dying, is precisely the reason that you already spawn with a nice survival kit. Having to search for a weapon is just boring for many. Lot's of people aren't hardcore dayz fans, many were brought to this mod by word of friends, and this change would probably be too much for most people. I don't know if the decreasing of a player base is a good reason but it would probably happen because of the frustration, as it's already been said. Perhaps a good compromise is having less clips. Obviously if the mod gets melee weapons, this might have to be discussed again.
