Vathras 0 Posted February 6, 2014 Been playing for about a week. After this patch I noticed a few things. First, you start off hungry instead of thirsty. And food consumption seems to have gone up drastically. I hate 2 cans of sardines, 2 cans of spaghetti, and half a can of tuna to get filled up. After a 6k sprint I was starving again. Did they tie it to some sort of hidden stamina meter or something? We simply could not find food often enough to stay health. My friend got beat down by zombies, he went down easy since he was starving as well. Despite an IV and bandaging, still died. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Judopunch 523 Posted February 6, 2014 Read the patch notes. Also, even before the patch notes you needed to eat about 30 cans of beans for your energy to fill up completely. If you still need help check out the new players section under guides, or do a forum search about the topic. There are many many good posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drayson 158 Posted February 6, 2014 I don't have the problem you guys are talking about. I'm always in the healthy status, energized, hydrated, and always have a surplus of food in addition to this. No I don't server hop I stick to one server but I spend most of my time in the central and northern part of the map. I haven't noticed any increase in energy needs myself.

RiggsUK 69 Posted February 6, 2014 For a supposedly authentic experience. Gaining the status of starving to death after running 1km, and subsequently dying from starvation after another 1km is ludicrous. People have survived over 100 days without food (see Poon Lim), and 3 days without water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zaphodity (DayZ) 41 Posted February 7, 2014 Since the last update, I eat like a Biafran refugee with a terminal case of the worms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drayson 158 Posted February 7, 2014 Did you read anything?Yes? Was just saying I don't seem to have the same problem or didn't notice much of a change between this patch and previous versions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sQubanny 13 Posted February 7, 2014 You have to be very unlucky not to find anything to eat. Never died because of starvation. The best path to loot safely and do some serious gearing up before heading to elektro/cherno is:Orlovets => Polana => Dubrovka => Krasnostav + airfield => Svetlo + abandoned ship and then decide whether you want to go south through Berezino up to Elektro/Cherno or find more gear heading to west through military bases and main airfield Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
