Scavenging

Alright I was eating a berry and thinking of DayZ then it hit me. What if rocket changed the map so that new entities ( Berries and other food ) spawn in bushes and such. Maybe if you find a berry and it says Red Berry then that would be like poisonous and others would be safe that you would have to identify. Also like mushrooms and other stuff could spawn too. Just a more lifelike take on woods. Walking in the forest it wouldn't be barren. It would have types of food. Maybe even the possibility of runoff water from rain (dirty puddles ) which regenerate water but can get you sick and you would need ( antibiotics?) something to heal you. I just think that nature should be another source of surviving that way you don't have to run into PvP hot spots just to get some water.

I had a similar idea for foraging.

Also, mushrooms.

Trippy ones.

You don't really need to go anywhere near pvp hot spots for drinks actually.

I would go find some campers, put the berries inside their backpack, turn fraps on and stalk them, haha would be epic

I mentioned this (but not in as full detail as you have) on a random thread here on the forums a few weeks ago. I wanted an apple tree, I fucking love apples.

but then another user suggested that the environment is probably poisoned or infected in some way due to the virus (but somehow animals aren't? idk) and that canned food is the only stuff we KNOW is safe to eat.

hunting animals conflicts with his theory, but I still like the idea of limiting ourselves to canned food because ... well, better safe than sorry!

This is an amazing idea, that will spawn many hilarious stories.
