Ecosystem Effects
Plants play an integral role in the ecosystem. Below are some of the key foundations as to how they contribute to the Eco environment:
Pollution
Population
The ecosystem of Eco is a very balanced environment. Your actions of harvesting animals or berries can affect how the Ecosystem is played out and you should take precautions of the consequences your actions can have on the ecosystem. For example, if you killed all the Elk on the server - the number of berries consumed by animals would decrease, meaning more berries would be available to harvest. However, in doing so - you should note that the population of Wolves would decrease too because they have fewer animals to hunt. As such, it is advised that you should hunt animals evenly, avoid foraging in the wilderness and Farm your own self-created Crops. In future updates, it is speculated that Breeding will allow you to increase the numbers of animals and another precaution we should take is to avoid overpopulation to avoid upsetting the balance of the ecosystem. This speculation has been proved in the Eco Alpha Trailer.
