Happy Thanksgiving Expansive Worlds and Avalanche Studios!! I feel the game has finally reached a point where most people are playing for the grind, so I think it is tome to add a map rest feature to reset populations on individual maps without having to reset all progress in the game and lose everything. I feel this is something that would be greatly appreciated throughout the community and should be placed pretty high on the todo list. Thank you for your time and all that you do.

I agree, several of my zones for different species are screwed up. Please either reset all the animals or give us permission to reset them.

People already do this on pc and abuse the feature constantly. The only reason you’d do this is to essentially cheat the system… you can get the same effect by just shooting the maps you already have.

That sounds so much more boring than just, you know, shooting animals. Imagine going to a lake, not seeing anything good or anything at all, then resetting the populations until that lake has an albino or whatever you're looking for. In the time it would take for something cool to happen because it's an initial spawn, you could have checked, like, 10 lakes shooting stuff in between and possibily having more luck in the process. Heck, you could even be one of those really lucky people who get a Great One by just shooting 10 of them, who knows.

Far too much abuse potential. People would just reset until they get a SR.
Not to mention, this is the support forum, not the feedback one...

They already do, too, which is why having this on demand wouldn’t be a good idea lol

As if people don’t abuse drinks zones and influence spawns of diamonds animals already with herd management grinding. Having the option to refresh animals on your map should definitely be a thing. Could be 1 reset per month for each map. The game already gate keeps the majority of the community with its crazy Rng number system. Plus streamers on pc already doing this to step up fresh grinds.

I’ll never understand being mad at that. Drink zones and all are features in game. The devs put them there for a reason and they work in a particular way because it’s a game. What you’re talking about is not a core part of the game- it’s abusing it and directly goes against what the devs have explicitly said regarding game files.
Just because streamers online do it doesn’t mean it’s okay. It’s against the contract you agree to when you play the game to edit/delete/otherwise play with your files like they do. It’s also against the same contract to modify the game in other ways- and yet that is also still done. Doesn’t justify it in the least.

Just saying there should be more ways to play to get potential animals. Without have to grind 1000s of animals. If you disagree or agree . It’s my opinion

That’s just the nature of the game- it’s random number generation. Nobody is guaranteed anything even if you grind 1000s of the same species. The specific mechanic you’re proposing would be abused way too easily for it to be considered an alternative. Initial g1 spawns were taken out of the game for a very specific reason and this is part of why.

Which is gate keeping the majority of the community that plays the as intended.

It’s not gate keeping… all you have to do is hunt animals. It’s a hunting game. That should be easy enough, no?
What do you mean by “plays as intended”?
