In a survival situation those who can use the natural world around them will always come out better off. But these are skills which need to be learnt. The tracking skill could be learnt by adding an object to your inventory belt, perhaps a booklet or book about tracking or it could be a skill already learnt when the player begins. Perhaps it could even be a skill that improved the more time you were alive for, the tracks of individuals would become clearer as time progressed. In rural environments, such as forests and grasslands players would be able to see any traces (perhaps footprints a faint red line or perhaps distorted grass) of any player (or vehicle) that had passed through that area within a certain space of time (perhaps 15 minutes). I feel this would be a great addition to the game. It would make walking through forests so much more exciting. Imagine coming across a trail not knowing whether the person had passed by 1 minute or 15 minutes ago, maybe even following this trail and seeing where it lead. You would always be on your guard, worrying that someone could be on your trail. It would create a fun game for clans. 'Fox and hound'. Imagine running from a group of people (10-even 20) knowing that they will be setting off in 15 minutes on your trail. Even better imagine being one of the hunters. please post if you like the idea. I think it could be a great addition to the game.
