A quick questions

Recommended Posts

- I've noticed, when you eat, 3 arrows appear on your HUD next to your blood level. Then progressive 2 arrows, then 1, then none. I assume this is the time the extra-health takes to be applied. But it also is the time between steaks for them to heal completely if I consume another one? or I have to wait longer.

- Do you now recover health w/o eating (by resting, or being full food/drink), or its just my impression?

Arrows are bloodloss/bloodgain

You do not recover blood without eating. (Yet)

Yeah if you eat while arrows are already pointing up you won't get the full benefit of the meal.

It's unrealistic to go hide yourself in a bush and wait 5 minutes to regain full health. This is not a Battlefield or CoD game! :)

5 min no, should be a matter of hours. But if I'm almost dead and I rest for half an hour I may get a bit better and at least lose my blurr vision.

Last day me and 2 friends where on the woods at midnight (game time, so was COMPLETELY dark) with one of us less than 10% of blood, fainting away every minute or two. Didn't had blood bags and not enough food, with pitch black darkness hunt was almost impossible -though we managed to found a cow- but it was still not enough. And our friend couldn't even move due to his blurred vision. So we set up a fire camp and we spend like 30 minutes, trying to hunt smth just for the blood gaining, because we we're no hungry/thirsty at all. That was one occasion where being able to heal a bit (like +2000 blood/Hour) just by resting and having all your needs meet would have been cool and not at all unrealistic (not more than healing broken bones with morphine).

If it was for me, you could only eat 2 meals (wathever combination it is - meat or can) every 15 minutes or more. Also regen blood from resting (as long as the character has his needs meet), plus being able to transfer blood from one char to another. So healing would be a combination of methods and a matter of time, not instantly. Precisely as it is now its like any other game: get hurt, use a medkit, profit. You even have diff medkits to choose from: Blood Bag > Rabbit Meath > Other Meat > Cans. The better the medkit, the better the healing.
