Food & Drink

Question

This happen to anyone else?

Died 27 times

Lost everything 27 times

New character 27 times

Needs to eat & drink every 5-10 minutes or die.

No offence Bohemia Interactive but no man needs that many peaches to survive one hour.

Am I the only one this is happening to?

I agree, when I first started this happened to me alot, although I didn't die quite that much xD. The game loot spawns seem somewhat off currently and also the amount of food and drink your character needs is kinda stupid. But then on the other side of the argument if your character is jogging for miles at a time, ofcourse he's gonna get thirsty. It's all about planning ahead. I usually look out for plastic water bottles and use them whenever I get to a fountain. I drink until my belly is full and then move on, following brooks/streams is always good, they most of the time lead to either a pond or a town. Load up a map either on the IZurvive smart phone app or using google. It gets easier.

Nope. Died once of starvation when I started playing. Realised it was cos I was sprinting everywhere. Haven't died of thirst or starvation since. I kill sheep and chickens eat everything they yield, throw up a few times and then don't need to eat for 30 plus minutes and I can sprint about. There's a well to drink from in almost every village or town. There's ponds and streams. Shouldn't be an issue.
