Tent and Spawn Changes

[stable nexus]

Due to character limit please also read reply.

First and foremost I do enjoy this game. The locations and hunting is an experience and when I first started playing I saw so much potential and was blown away given the age of the game.

However, as wonderful as it is, the walking can get very dull over time. So when I found out tents could solve this issue my friends and I decided to pull the trigger and buy DLC.

Then the new update dropped. Honestly, initally it felt like we were being penalized for something that was given to us. We felt like we were taking long walks again to check locations. The vechicle is an option but the range at which spooks is also large.

A few of my friends decided that they did not want to play anymore under those changes. Honestly a feel a certain amount of players will not be affected, but some will leave.

But to my friends and I it just seemed tone deaf. It felt like the devs had made a decision regardless of the state of their communnity.

Honestly im casual I work 10 plus hours to pay the bills. I cannot devote larger amounts time to walking and waiting for something that may or may not respawn.

I dont think instant respawns are realistic either. I see some may not like others grinding. At the end of the day this game will continue or end. It feels like these tent and respawn changes are a step in the wrong direction.

They feel divisive.

They do not add enjoyment for many of the players.

It also raises the question will the devs take away other game aspects in favor for a vision?

I ask that everyone take a step back and answer these questions for themselves. I don't want to see ppl attacking each other or the devs thst I am sure put many hours into this game.

I know that the devs most likely won't read this, but I want them to know all their work is appreciated.

I hope they work the community and hear their concerns on this.

Personally I would love to see these changes reverted, but if not reducing the spawn timer might also allow players to grind like they were pre update.

Maybe uping the animal count in range of spawns.

Backfilling animal species might also provide more targets for players.

I am posting this away from my PC and don't know what updates if any will be implemented until later.

But I wish you all have a great day.
