nickholder85@gmail.com 19 Posted December 18, 2013 Nice one thank you! Only problem now is finding out where I am. I usually end up in the middle of nowhere lol! My last character however, I gave him two full canteens of fluid and the orange marker saying 'thirsty' was still there. Think it may of been from my character transitioning between updates though so will try with a new one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Batlan 2 Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) Is there a possibility to get sick drinking from those though? I used the quite many times after the update and didn't notice anything happening. Just curious. Edit: I mean the fountains Edited December 18, 2013 by Batlan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't forget you can get sick from drinking unclean water. This is only used as a last resort. Pretty much like eating rotten food.

need matches 84 Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) Me too Hells High. Haven't tried pond water yet. If pond water doesn't make you sick now, I'm sure this will be added. Then, if not already, the purification tablets will be necessary. Or you'll be taking a risk with getting sick.

noey jerd 3 Posted December 18, 2013 I've been in many ponds and I wasn't able to drink the water. :/ The only thing that seems to be killing me is lack of food and water. I find cans of food but nothing to open it with. Very annoying. Plus your thirst / hunger comes back WAY too fast right now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drayson 158 Posted December 18, 2013 I get the option to drink at fountains but nothing happens. Course that was pre-patch so I'll try again. Can the plastic water bottles be filled again? Been trying that in lakes and rivers with no luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
