If they changed the system to only eat/drink every 24hrs then everyone would just be running to nwaf and gearing up. This game ain’t hard to stay alive , I’m on a 2 day char with svd sniper , mp5 , military clothing etc.. I got all the way to balota from bherizeno just scavenging at some towns as I passed through . Now I’m making my way north , and I have read somewhere they are hoping to have vehicles and base building in near end of preview , lol when they do add vehicles yeah good luck as it’s not just hop in and drive , no you’ll probably need to find wheels and car battery and fuel , then you can come back here and bitch about that as well. Have fun and stay healthy .
