tankardguy 1 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) Okay so we got berry's (as i saw in the update notes) What about mushrooms? They should be able to be found in the forest.And what if you pick up the wrong ones and eat them, your characters vision starts flipping out. By the look of the shaders used when you are running really long on top speed. You could make a bigger depth of vision waves across the screen. Let the saturation go a little higher now and then. I mean all in all its survival and that could happen, in the jungles people eat the wrong fruits. in that part of the world the berries, mushrooms, apple's etc are the fruits of the forest.

SGT. Kalme 106 Posted March 25, 2014 Since mushrooms offer so little nutritional value then it would be quite pointless. If the effect was to fill up for short period of time, just to keep for searching proper food then yeah, it would work. But mushrooms are not enough to survive for long period of time.

Gekkonidae 270 Posted March 25, 2014 I think they are adding pumpkins at some point. At least it was one of the items listed in one of the game files that someone pointed out last week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tobias winfro 305 Posted March 25, 2014 Not sure you will find those kinds of mushrooms in the forest. If you're looking for the ones with psilocybin in them, well you will need to find a cow pasture and turn over a few patties to find them. At least that's how it works here in Michigan but I guess you could eat a strange mushroom, have it poison you and then start hallucinating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirdthorpe 87 Posted March 25, 2014 At one point I recall walking through something that lookes very much lime an orchard in an area near the coast. Seeing some type of fruit growing off trees would seem to make sense to me, though I'm not sure what kinds of fruit trees can grow in that area of the world.

But mushrooms are not enough to survive for long period of time.Like the berries you need to spend a considerable time harvesting and eating them to get any reasonable benefit.

Damnyourdeadman 1045 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) How about being able to eat all the Pumpkins laying around,there are pumpkin patches in every town ;)Mushrooms would be cool :)They really need to be removed IMO.There are 10 juicy pumpkings in the garden,and a survivor corpse that died of hunger next to them....It dosen't add to the overall feel of scarce food,in the Apocalypse.My point is If you could eatthem,their numbers are so great that no survivor would ever go hungry.
