FOOD AND WATER.

Recommended Posts

Alright, DayZ has been in development for quite some time. A lot of complaints people had when the game first released was the amount of time it took for food and water to deplete, even while sprinting...

 

I'm here to say that it feels like nothing has changed. Either increase the loot pools of food and water, or increase the time it takes for both to deplete. This isn't even close to a simulation. It is insanely ridiculous.

 

If a human NEEDED to survive on an apple and 1.5 litres of water EVERY DAY CYCLE, that would make sense. But every 5 minutes it feels like I'm dying from thirst or malnutrition.

 

NOT fun. When you guys full release on Xbox One, expect the same result.

God knows the game isn't in easy mode at the moment, but that has its own rewards. When they took out some of the water pumps in .63 I was a bit pissed off because it screwed one of my usual routes inland, via Nadezhdino. You just plan differently and change your style a little. 

And if there's one thing to get salty about, it's probably not availability of food and water.
