Hydra (DayZ) 472 Posted August 13, 2012 Look closely at the in game textures for empty whiskey bottles... It appears Chernorussians had a fetish for Jack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn't. Infact it does the opposite of that. Drinking alcohol while suffering from cold will greatly increase the risk of hypothermia."Alcohol may make your skin feel warm, but this apparent heat wave is deceptive. A nip or two actually causes your blood vessels to dilate, moving warm blood closer to the surface of your skin, making you feel warmer temporarily. At the same time, however, those same veins pumping blood closer to the skin's surface cause you to lose core body heat — the heat you need to survive, especially if you're stuck in a snowdrift . This effect could lead to fatal hypothermia."http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/mythbusters/db/food/alcohol-warms-up.htmlNow what it could do is make you pain resistant, or able to endure pain for a while. Perhaps temporarily kill hunger. That or just make you drunk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
