The temperature system & water bottles

[bobbyweenus 17]

I really like the temperature system. It adds a new, hardcore realism dynamic that will give DayZ a new level of depth, but are there any plans to fix the Water Bottle/Canteen refill system? Having to swim 10-15 feet into a pond to refill my water bottle really stinks, and will especially suck if I can get hypothermia doing it.

I understand the game is supposed to be unrelentingly tough, but I feel like our crack shot survivor characters would be able to kneel down at the side of a water source, and refill their bottle while staying dry.

I apologize ahead of time if the water-bottle refill system's current design is a bug that will eventually be fixed!

It is a decent idea, but not enough buildings are enter-able, plus there are way too many zombies that constantly respawn to make this mechanic fair at the moment.
