Hello,
1st I'd like to wish you all a happy new year, looking forward to see what 2022 brings to DayZ!
Players have noticed that you can keep your character alive just by drinking water constantly. Considering water is quite easy to access as lots of towns have wells and water bottles are not that rare as zombies drop them quite often, for a gameplay mechanic it does not make much sense personally as it's not really a massive worry as it does not kill you. I understand it would be realistic to survive by drinking lots of water, but for a game it does not punish you, it's very easy to just ignore the character's stomach and keep running.
At the moment you can be full health and starving at the same time, it kind of makes players ignore the hunger until they get tired of the empty stomach sound.
Some videos will be added up to the ticket soon that shows how it works.
Thank you,
