AZHockeyNut Posted December 23, 2016 Author Share Posted December 23, 2016 then I got treated to having to crawl over him to get out lol!!! and a wolf came up.... so... I hit him with a flare gun, that was a pretty cool site to watch. like fireworks in the dusk....he ran all over the lake with his hair on fire. felt bad for him but I was exhausted and he was too fast for me to put him out of his misery.

Ahatch Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 heh at least if you get tired of eating bear meat he left the fishing hole uncovered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZHockeyNut Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 @Ahatch too early in the game to eat the meat, I would have had parasites. I won't touch that or wolf meat unless I have to. especially with a fishing hole right there...if it were twm and the only hole available....I would have eaten some bear!

Pillock Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Parasites aren't that bad, man. I eat bear all the time. On Stalker there's enough mushrooms on ML for two bouts of parasites, plus you've got the Ravine, Winding River and Farflung Mustard with loads more. And then there's the bottles of pills. And if you're careful you probably won't get them that often anyway. Nice screenshot, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahatch Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Ya I played on Voyageur and ate 2 bears without getting any parasites I just made sure I cooked the meat right before I ate it . I just stored the excess in the little cellar door on the Mountaineers Hut and brought out what I was going to eat that day and the next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure when that happened, but this last sandbox I had going, I never had the parasite warning come up when eating predator meat. It's weird and I don't think I like that it's been removed in Voyageur. The only reason I noticed it was because I killed a bear to clear the area so I could hunt deer. I was low on other food at the time, so I snagged just a couple kilos of meat from it, to stretch what I had a few more days, since I'm not concerned with holding onto a 1% risk.

AZHockeyNut Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 Gotcha. That's all good stuff. I play on stalker. Have plenty of fish and other food available so that much meat was going to take a while to haul one place to another and there were five or six wolves around which sucked. Thought you guys would love the pic. I eventually crawled back over him to get back inside once I got out just to see if it worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird and I don't think I like that it's been removed in Voyageur. Parasites were removed from Voyageur because many people complained about the parasite mechanics and how not being able to eat wolf meat* made the game more difficult for them. * Well, to be precise they felt like they couldn't eat predator meat any longer. Which was of course never true, it only required a bit of risk management. If you were willing to take a tiny 1% risk you could always eat a piece per day, or 2 pieces for a 4% risk. (I personally usually did the latter no matter the mode). But well, facts and feelings appear not to get along particularly well these days and thus parasites became a Stalker & Interloper-only thing.^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also the added risk of accidentally clicking "EAT" instead of "DROP" when you're handling the raw steaks midway through harvesting the bear carcass, and instantly getting food poisoning plus a 75% chance of parasites. I don't recommend doing that. (But even then it shouldn't result in death unless you're really careless in the following days.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how you dismount a flying critter in mid-air/accidentally kill a critical NPC/scrap a rare item/etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
