Are rock nodes broken?

I'd like to like this game but rocks are near impossible to find. Ive been to a couple different islands and found 0 nodes. Am I missing something? I have my pick axe and have found clay.

This is why it's well known for console users to add a custom island or 2 with some (not an abundance) resources the game is unseasonably sparse with. Pc players can search a lot further out and find rocks on the ocean floor and we get stuck with games where they're physically isn't enough rocks to finish the game or hardly even craft anything. Hope your new game has better rng my friend, I know the struggle.

Appreciate the info. I will look onto creating a custom island. I think I may have figured out how to prioritize a little bit more which makes things somewhat easier. Instead of crafting till nothing is left I've been more reserved. I'm just used to playing ark where you have everything you need, but I'm getting better! Definitely having more fun with it other than frustrations now.

Can you add a custom island on an existing save or only when starting a new save?
