What does a well look like?

Recommended Posts

Possibly the dumbest question one could ask, but I've looked through the forums and I can't seem to figure out what a well looks like in the game. A guy can only live off of Coke and Pepsi for so long, and the refill option doesn't seem to work in all bodies of water, so I'm hoping to at least know what to look for so I can top off when I'm in a town.

Can anyone do me a solid and just take a Steam picture or post one?

The picture is true but the map ain't, the map also shows real wells (Deep holes in the ground) and those can't be used.

I tried refilling my flasks at three different "wells", none gave me an option to "Fill". I assumed they weren't working and just used the shoreside

They're not really "wells". Just more like metal pumps sticking out of the ground on a small sandy-coloured platform.

I got one to work successfully but all subsequent attempts to refill my canteen at these so-called wells have met only with humiliating failure. Is there some sort of trick to it? I circle around it looking like a moron trying to size up a water fountain.

All the ones I've come across have worked for me, and in general the wells labeled on the map have operated correctly. I guess YMMV.

wells on the map dont work, its only pumps that work

The current pumps that work are the BLUE pumps.

The green pumps do not work currently although i know rocket does intend to fix this

They kind of look like this' date=' except they are on a cylindrical base: http://www.offthegridnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Well-pump-300x225.jpg

If you have a map, they're also marked with the shape of a fountain.

Awesome, thanks for the help. I was able to find one, and since found a couple more now that I have a clue what to look for.
