Death By Crowbar

LOL Koval...

I often have to travel through up to 5 towns to get all the food I need. After every time I die and respawn that's the most stressful part - and full of risk. I usually get blown away by someone while in a town hitting up a hospital or something looking for food.

The fact that I've stayed alive for over a day is rather amazing to me. I'm becoming a lot more careful in what risks I take and when I come out of the back country to risk interaction with possible bandits, especially on servers with 10+ people. So here's my crux - rather than kiting zombies away and coming back to my loot goals each time I started killing them from time to time. I don't know why, but in the past 24-48 hours my aim has gotten HORRIBLE. The result is that I've taken some damage and am now low on blood. Each time I've bandaged myself so I'm not currently bleeding. I've hit up 2-3 hospitals looking for blood to no avail. I've considered parking it at a hospital and logging out and back in from another server to see if the loot I'm looking for is there but that's sort of cheating and I'd rather try this straight up (learn out to do it right or get help from someone). I even tested myself with a test kit and found I was O+ (sweet, at least I know!). But I'm walking around with everything quite blurry, no amount of food/drink I hit up seems to help, no amount of bandages, morphine, etc I take helps either. I'm assuming my only way to fix this is a blood transfusion or something. Has anyone experienced this and can anyone confirm? Any tips or help would be much appreciated. It's kinda fun to be geared up and ready to tackle the world for a change, but my vision is getting fubar from what I'm guessing is blood loss!

Bean beans, the magical fruit, the more you eat the more you toot... errr... heal?

Well, in trying to stay off the beaten path I ended up somehow sliding down a cliff face and died. That was unexpected. Yet another learning experience I suppose. :(

Ok, update again - not to spam, but my vision is back to normal! Gluttony heals all (except for disinfectant spray)?

Ok, this is interesting. I tried eating some stuff but assumed everyone must be full of bunk - but suddently a 3rd green rectangle of "healing" turned up in my inventory alongside "Engergized" and "Hydrated". But I had to eat 2 cans of tuna, 1.5 cans of beans, and some other stuff. I feel like a fat kid at a cake convention... but I definitely got the "healing" status finally.

An update after logging back in and looking - it says I'm "Energized" and "Hydrated" in my inventory screen - there's nothing about healing. Am I dealing with something else perhaps?

Newb in training here... appreciate the advice! It's more fun to survive than scrape along a living after dying over and over!

You can be force fed bullets? OMG LOL that's awesome... hahahahaha... that's a way worse problem than my simple apparently low bood issue!

Can eating/drinking like a pig alone fix it over time? Or is the only option saline or something? It's not so much gray as blurry. Well maybe a *little* gray but mostly blurry.

But... I want to kill them... with the screw driver.

Invincible? We need the Holy Hand Grenade added as a weapon...

I'm new, I couldn't find anything equivalent of a "server status" so I figured I'd find my way to the forums and ask. Looks like one or two other folks were discussing something about this - but my version got updated to Version 0.34.115106. However, I'm unable to see any internet servers. Is the patching still going on and are the servers down?

FYI - looks like everything is back up now.

Can you cure poisoning from disinfectant spray? The first time I drank it on accident I died, and it's been forced fed to me a few times after which I've died as well...

Found the latest on Twitter (an hour ago), it's clear they're still working on it.

I'm in the same boat. Except I don't see any servers, except for the experimental ones which pop up for half a second and then disappear.
