Theoretical: Full Health, You Get Infected... How Far Can You Run?

[DoctorScandalous 49]

I'm just wondering how far you think someone who has full health could run before they died by infection/blood loss? 

 

Assuming the following: 

• Level ground
• Unarmed/armed with pistol
• Starting with full health/food/drink meters

Thoughts? Estimates? Hard facts?

I'm assuming you're talking about currently in the mod? Blood loss has a lot of factors, but with infection, I believe you lose 15 health every 3 seconds?

2400 seconds according to my obviously incorrect math...slightly fixed but still probably wrong math

Starting blood: 12000

Rate of loss: 3 per second

Running speed: about 5.25-5.5 m/s

 

Maximum time: 4000 seconds

Maximum distance: 21-22 kilometers

3 per second? dammit statik...my math was right

Ok... that gives you quite a bit more time than I originally had thought. I thought that you'd be dead in like 10 minutes or so. So by that math, it seems like you'd run out of food/water before you'd run out of blood... jah?

That seems to be about right. I play alone a lot and so quite often I am a little low on blood and without using any food I will die within an hour.

The last 2400(?) blood (empty droplet) equates to 800 seconds, or 13:20 of totally blurred, pulsing, monochrome vision and random fainting.  Not much use for running.
