Can't eat or drink

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

Since yesterday I can only inspect food and water items in my inventory, but I can't eat/drink them. The only option available is the "inspect" one. I can refill the bottles and open up the cans, but I can't drink/eat. The only way I've been able to do any of that is by force feeding/drinking by another player.

 

Any ideas on this?

 

Also, having high bandwidth (on the P shortcut key settings) is good or bad?

the only issue I can think of that prevents eating/drinking is desync, sometimes it can take a few attempts at right-clicking for it to show the eat/drink option.

Drop your clothing that contains the food/drink, then pick it back up and relog. This has worked for me several times in the past.

Hello,

Check for how high or low your "Desync" is. I had a problem with many servers as I bought the game. I had a desync of 50-100k while people from different countries had 0 desync. That problem has gone by itself lol.

 

I had to look for servers with a good ping, some were still lagging for me but not for others. Strange thing but I'm saying all this because my friends who buy the game are suffering the same problem at the beginning.

Thank you for your help guys! I had no desync, but the issue is gone now. Don't know what caused it though.
