Yeah, Firebreak is a terribly designed game. Not being explained how to repair things, not knowing what the “main” weapon of your class does, not being explained what the showers are or how to turn them on, not being explained how to use the ammo station, not being explained ANYTHING about the very fucky universe you get dropped into - it’s all bad. And there is so much more badbi nor you mentioned, too. It has the bones of a potentially good game, but man, the main designer either needs to go back to school or the suits that made them change it so much need to be removed.

Probably a lack of good information - with only a hundred odd cases and not having had much time to get the facts, I’m betting that’s a SWAG (scientific wild ass guess) and we’ll have better info the more time has passed.

I believe it would lead to fewer chances for the mites to migrate between colonies - i.e. more flowers == less bees per flower == less chance for a mite to jump from a bee to a flower to a bee/different hive.

That’s just a guess tho and my gut also says that climate change isn’t helping.
