ouberlord 4 Posted May 13, 2012 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?

zanarias 3 Posted May 13, 2012 They kind of look like this, except they are on a cylindrical base: http://www.offthegridnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Well-pump-300x225.jpgIf you have a map, they're also marked with the shape of a fountain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeraz 1 Posted May 13, 2012 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sorophx 25 Posted May 13, 2012 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reklin 56 Posted May 13, 2012 They're not really "wells". Just more like metal pumps sticking out of the ground on a small sandy-coloured platform. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pendergraft 1 Posted May 13, 2012 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.>Makarov>Eat Food>Furiously bludgeon head on pump in abject frustration Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zanarias 3 Posted May 13, 2012 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dronin 5 Posted May 14, 2012 wells on the map dont work, its only pumps that workThe current pumps that work are the BLUE pumps. The green pumps do not work currently although i know rocket does intend to fix this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was able to find one, and since found a couple more now that I have a clue what to look for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
