No need if they learned the high kick....

I think radiation and giant insects go together wonderfully. I miss the hornets. I'm guessing we aren't likely to see any more giant insects outside of mods. I'd love to be wrong

That would be cool. The radiation biome could be a super hazardous place to go with all kinds of mutant animals and zombies and radiation hazards, but it would also be a place to go for hard to get metals and such.
The radiation biome would be a dash and grab type place.

Radiation suits would only block radiation for a limited time, and when you take damage there are chances to tear the radiation suit, further decreasing your ability to stay in the area.

Yes, that was what I always envisioned. The radiation biome would be a special biome, the harshest one, and you can stay there for a limited amount of time as your radiation suit is taking damage. There artists could go nuts with special mutated enemies that only appear there, and of course very valuable and unique items there too would appear.

Then how would you define the borders to a map?

How strong would an irradiated Behemoth be?

The world border it's just radiation again, but make it a super radiation zone or something.

hornets gave honey which was fantastic - it beat searching tree trunks in the snow biomes. not a lot of good options for curing disease at start.

vultures are good too because they give feathers. they both serve a useful function, so they should bring definitely bring back hornets and keep vultures

I agree with the wasteland/radiation zone. I have also had some other thoughts;

I think it would be interesting if you had a roving swarm within a certain distance x of y fresh corpses. Hornets are meat eaters. Have you ever been camping in a forest in the western US during August? Try and eat anything containing protein and you are swarmed by hornets in minutes.

I think end game stage where irradiated zombies are glowing we should be see roving swarms of 3 - 5 during the day. Fresh kills attracting them within 250~ meters.

They need to be rare and dangerous. Chance of poisoning similar to food poisoning effect when taking damage from a critical hit.

Giant insects would be a fantastic addition to the game.
