2017 Survival based gameplay improvement suggestion: (More Rabbits/chickens)

[shikanosuke 2]

The new 2017 mod is a fun version of dayz, where surviving is the actual goal.

its a lot more fun than dayz but after a couple days of getting used to it you can easily get enough food from farm animals to become complacent and start looking for something to do to kill time, instead of having to constantly strive for long term survival.

My suggestion is that instead of lowering the number of animals, which could result in not enough on high pop servers -although that would still be more fun- is to remove cows/sheep/goats or if possible drastically increase the ratio of rabbits/anything else so that people will typically only get enough food from hunting an animal to keep them going for the immediate future, with larger animals like boars being a rarer more valuable treat.

I feel that the flaw with the current situation with animals is that while it can sometimes be difficult to get a knife and find one, once you do its unlikely you will ever need to worry about food again.

Any comments/suggestions or criticism would be appriciated.

I played 2017 a while back and enjoyed it for the duration I did. That sounds like a fair suggestion IMO.
