Shortage of bugs
 

k, not sure if its glitch, but there hasnt been a lot of grasshoppers or ladybugs seen in the map since last night. Confirmed it with a few other people. I have not seen a single ladybug or grasshopper, but I did find 4 mantises this morning.

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed.

ty, that s all.

edit:

the butterfly population seems to have not changed though. So butterflies r good, its just the grasshoppers n ****.

I think that's what you call Fall. Although it would be a little early.

ooo thanks. But how come the butterfly and mantis population are not affected?

edit:

the probability of finding a mantis seems to be consistent... I have caught another two and seen a few other players catch some too, but have not seen any grasshoppers or ladybugs

The first 10 seconds of logging on I caught a Mantis.

ya, ive already established that the mantis and butterfly population are not affected. i was talking bout grasshoppers and ladybugs

I'm saying I think spawn rates have been increased for specific bugs.

yeah i've noticed the bugs are weird but there has been a giant increase in the mantis population but I got a decrease in butterfly population at the oasis though. Hmmmmmm…

New bug season started September 1st. Fireflies are added. Spiders SHOULD have been added but weren't. Grasshoppers are gone. Dragonflies are gone. I thought mantises were gone until I saw the odd one here and there (so I guess their spawn rate was reduced, although personally I think they're bugged. Because they seem to be spawning more in a few select areas). I didn't notice it but I guess ladybugs are gone too?

Certain bugs only come out certain seasons (there's 4 three month seasons). Fall and winter are the slowest bug seasons (for logical reasons).

Oh I didn't even know that there were actual changes in bugs. I just thought any months besides December, January, and February had bugs. That's interesting to know.
