Mr Jizz 313 Posted February 10, 2014 Simple concept.. Two kinds of water pumps (wells). One is an 'urban' version that is consistently clean and safe to drink; the other is a 'rural' untreated well pump that has a random potential for causing illness or sickness. My vision is based on the notion that there are far fewer risks in the rural areas of the map, where IMO the environment should be more of a challenge than in a city. Someone who camps on a hill and picks off bambies can retreat to a rural town to rehydrate, virtually free of personal risk. Conversely, the bambies have to make tough decisions about where they water themselves based largely on their willingness to tangle with better-equipped players. The pumps would be visually different, to prevent some confusion, of course. Now folks might have to think twice about that water pump in Staroye without a proper water testing kit (additionally a gear idea). Also, the bad wells would be random, potentially different every time the server resets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
basinox 300 Posted February 10, 2014 Yeah its kinda easy to walk through the rural areas but then again, there isn't any loot so it isn't worth staying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Jizz 313 Posted February 10, 2014 I believe they're trying to find more ways to make the suburbs relevant, foremost of which is an increase in firearms spawning in residential areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
