Meat in survival mode

[~That Goddamn Trans Rights Panda]

How often is meat supposed to drop in survival mode? I've killed loads of roaches and a deathclaw.. not one meat from any of htem? is this normal?

You've just been unlucky.
If you go to Sunshine Co-op you can find a mag that will increase food looted from animals/insects, I htink it gives a flat +1 increase meaning you always get at least one meat from them.

Ah okay thanks, I will soldier onwards to sunshine on an empty stomach for the time being then xD

Weird, I've always gotten one meat from a deathclaw before the magazine. Unless there's scripted deathclaws? I dunno.

Meat isn't the worry , so far all 4 of my deaths were by fatmans and one was by a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bucket on a truck which magically crushed me some how

It's okay it was my bad I figured it out. I have the 'Loot Overhaul Mod' which only gives you like 0% chance of meat before you find some magazine that 'teaches' you how to cut meat from the animals.

Doesn't make much sense considering the mod claims to be going for realism. If I was starving to death in real life I wouldn't go trekking around finding a book on how to cut meat. I'd just stick my knife in cut it and throw it on a fire.

Removed loot overhaul mod and now getting too much meat, why is there never a moderate middle ground always one extreme or the other in this game xD

I was going to say, pretty sure Deathclaws are guaranteed meat sources.

It's not just meat though, Survival has too much food, chems, stimpaks, etc. Only thing I have ever actually been low on at times is Purified Water, and even then only temporarily if I stop grabbing empty bottles for a while.

Yeah I have 'gasmasks of the wasteland' and 'true storms' which makes radiation much more prominent and purified water harder to come by. It's a nice balance, water pumps only give dirty water which makes sense, the ground is irradiated so only way is through loot or water purifiers which I like.

Having a hard time trying to find a mod that balances the food. It varies from vanilla 'too easy' to overhaul 'impossible'.

Gonna look into how to mod the values myself to tweak it 'just right' myself

Wasteland where you eat or you are eaten. Deathclaws are hybrid human. hmm with some tatos and a sauce made from blood bug, mutfruit and whiskey.

Meat isn't the only thing there is to eat you know.

I strongly doubt that meat drop less in survival.

Seems, that you allready know, that you have to cook all meat before eating or you will wake the next morning with an infection.
