Foragable eggs

Post by Phizuol »

Just a pretty basic idea. Wild eggs that can be harvested and used in at least some of the egg recipes. Duck, chicken, etc on the ground or even eggs you grab out of trees. Another possibility is giving clovers to chickens. Thanks.

This would be a great feature, to let casuals who don't have the time to keep a chicken coop fed and watered get a taste of all the egg based recipes in the game.

When a chicken group spawns, also spawn 1 or 2 nests that can be foraged for eggs.

Haha, yeah. I find it hilarious you can walk over an entire mountain range and not a single pebble has been dislodged from them. Next world gen there should be hundreds if not thousands of boulders on and at the base of mountains.

Forageable stones would be way better idea. Starter area thing just doesnt work as people chop down trees and destroy stones. Many quit because they cant find single boulder to make stone axe.

Why not leave it as a premium thing, only paying should be able to use eggs and all normally. Its just how the game should work.... think of it. I spent 2+ hours farming as an upaid and then spend the rest of the week taking care of my chickens. I have no time for anything else. If I cut the chickens out, it would mean what? Nothing, being a payed player needs to have its advantages. Why should nonpaying players get a taste of anything? Nonplaying players are the scum of the game past mass murders, why change it lol.


Edit: I am not saying this is a bad idea, in fact I would love the idea myself. But just pointing out the norm on how things normally feel online.
