Skkola Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I wanted to make an extra thread for this idea to draw more attention to it. It seems easy to implement in the game and is just logic.You'd get unsafe water, maybe limit it to a couple of liters (even though logicially it shouldn't be capped) and you only have to boil it.

elloco999 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I think it's a great idea. But taking water from a fishing hole should take a certain amount of time per liter/ quart. This automatically limit's the amount of water you can take before it freezes again, just like it does when you're fishing, and you need to open it up again to get more water. This also means that getting water this way requires resources, your hatchet/ knife degrades when you open the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternityTide Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I think that if this gets added, another health hazard, the pin worm, should also be possible to contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potbelly86 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 It would make perfect sense but do we need other water source, it could be "cold water" that would have negative effect on warmth but who would use it at all then. It is so easy to get water and that tends to be first thing i do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the devs try to make the game as realistic as possible and then, imo, it should be implemented Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toebar Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I think that if this gets added, another health hazard, the pin worm, should also be possible to contract.Good thought, but not the pin worm. Giardia (aka beaver fever) would be the more likely issue with water from the lake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pambe Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Great idea, it should be a bit quicker to harvest water this way though. And you still should be forced to boil it to avoid possible health issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
