Milking Cows

Recommended Posts

You need to have an empty bottle or water canister in your hand, sneak up behind the cow and get the scroll option "Milk Cow".

This will hold the cow in position for the time it takes to collect the Milk.

Milk would be high in protein and help you regain health very quick and can be combined well with your Crunchin crisps cereal

LOL, if you have to sneak up to the cow what makes you think you can milk it?

As I said you can collect it in a water bottle or a water canister and you could mix it in a pan or they could add bowls to eat out of.

But being able to mix it was just a separate additional suggestion.

It would make it easier for people that have no weapons and just a few survivor tools to get some food/liquid and would give those survivors that don't want to just kill cows for their meat (i.e. vegetarians) an additional option.

It would be added to the action options you get, same as when drinking water from a well or lake.

So again you need to be holding an empty water bottle in your hand and you get the "Milk Cow" option when you are standing close and looking at the cow.

What I meant was, if you have to sneak up to a cow, what makes you think it will let you tug on it's udder?

This would be cool, I'd love if they added a ton of recipes like you could make rice pudding and stuff, maybe even bread.

 

Screw being a KOS bandit or a hero or random survivor, I want to be a chef!

 

 

The cows don't run away from you anyway so it shouldn't be a problem milking them, I walked right up to one and killed it with an axe it didn't even try to run away. Maybe you could even get rope and lead them to your base when that's in the game? That would be awesome.

 4 Bottles of milk could make a bar of butter  ;)

 

Roping the cow and taking it to your base makes you a farmer  :P

That would be awesome especially if you could have signs saying "milk for trade" or "food store, trade goods" and you could get friends playing as body guards.

It'd be great fun having to defend your farm from bandits too...so long as some people were actually civil...
