jackleroy Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 So, I just cracked 100 days for the first time on PS4 and I'm noticing that animals aren't as plentiful as they used to be. In fact, I just spent three in game days (minus nights) driving around the map looking for them. In that time I only found one pig in the snow biome in Navezgane. Do animals spawn less often based on your play length or player score? Is it all just random? Do they spawn further away from your character or base? Just curious about it.

MutilatorJuice Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Animals respawn after a certain length of time. If you don't destroy the entire carcass and leave it to rot, this can lengthen the respawn in the area substantially. I would also suggest staying out of an area completely for at least a week. Hopefully this helps. I've had to go vegan before lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damselx1 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 There's a faster spawn rate for the snow biomes, and if you go to areas not yet uncovered you may find some., but otherwise you need to stay away from an area long enough for the animals to respawn.

jackleroy Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 Ah, that all makes perfect sense. It never occurred to me to treat them like loot respawns. I've never actually bothered to break down the carcasses after I get the meat, so it looks like I'll be a vegan for a while too. Thanks to both of you!

SylenThunder Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Yeah, each biome has a set spawn for the Zed's and Animals it will spawn. Once you have killed and cleared that amount of creatures, it will take 5 game days to reset and start spawning again. In this way, if you are hunting in similar areas a lot, it will seem like there is a scarcity of animals. Always best to make long arching trips hunting so that you don't deplete one biome's resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlaw_187 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Also assuming you have the mini bike by now if you're over day 100, just cruise around and any animals you see, run those buggers over. Hunting becomes a breeze once the mini bike is obtained. Of course this is unless they fix this with the upcoming update. I hear pc players can no longer one shot animals by running them over. Will make more sense I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
