I found this out recently myself. I went swimming with the pot to try to fill it up, because I wasn't near a pond that I could fill it with. It filled up, just as I came out of the water and I though that swimming filled it, but when I tried it again, it didn't work. I stood there for a second thinking and it filled up. Was the rain. Highlight of smart game design and dumb game design at the same time. :P
I'd like to add you can also fill the pot from the water collector and keep it in your inventory. You can actually drink from it. So you have 2 sources of water with you on your journeys.
Layne C. I have a setup with drying racks where I kill cannibals, cut them up, and stick their limbs on the drying racks. Works as a wonderful and tasty food source.
FallenTemplar709 ahh i still rember being in that situation. Now i have 360 hours played and kinda playing it less frequently because there's no longer things to explore unfortunately
Hey Broadbent, love your vids! I found a "legit" bug how to duplicate logs as ropes. You have to build a crane then build 1 log and 1 rope you will get w ropes and 3 logs it's useful to get logs into your cave base.
@@nimrodpaul6875 Hey, yep I got the game and I'd say it's worth the buck! The survival aspect is manageable and quite fun but the game spices it up with the cannibals and mutants. It also supports multiplayer so if you've got a gaming friend, it much more fun to play with someone :)
I think, when the game just came out there was another way to get water. When it was raining some kind of a big leaf collected it and you could drink it from that leaf. But it seems like the developers just cut this out completely.
Great video, thanks Broadbent... I did notice on your turtle spawning guide map that the cove near to the hut you gave directions for in your vid about getting the Map & Compass didn't have a marker on it... have they stopped spawning there? It's the cove that you have to go down to from the clifftop and climb down some rocks to get to, you pointed it out as you went past it to get to the hut... Shame, I have used it as a first location a couple of times just because of the turtles there!! >.
did you ever figure out you can use the canteen to get water from ponds too you just need two deer skins and a rope which is cloth you get from the start plane!
The cooking pot, "I believe there's only four in the game" but there's five circles! :p also the water collector was four sticks wasn't it? Learned something new with boiling the water though and I like these mini-guides to the forest, sure to come in handy next time I dare play the game some more! is the soda negative to use as main source when not on hard survival too? (not that far in yet so not noticed weight much)
The struggle of running the Forest on my laptop is so real right now. Hope to build a beast desktop PC in the future. Any recommendations from desktop owners on great parts to seek out and what brands/series to avoid?
I found out a glitch. I placed the pot on a campfire, and then placed some food above it, then the pot and the food popped up, the food was gone, and when I picked up the pot, another one spawned.
the forest looks so pretty now compared to some years ago c: Broadbent could you make a guide on the caves. I've never been able to get anything out of em. it's just too dark and creepy :p
DutchCanine dude I’m stuck in the Goddamn mountain because I was captured and I can’t tell If I’m heading towards the exit or getting far away from it I don’t fucking know
