PC Snakes should poison
- Thread starter ElCabong

I wish poison was a thing and snakes seem the perfect enemy to have that ability. However I disagree in that it should slowly tick your health down. Maybe taking vitamins helps lessen the effects? They could introduce anti-venom to the game to be found or crafted as well.
Sadly, with gold coming closer and closer, I don't see anything changing. Mods to the rescue!

I approve. The more critical injuries the game can have the better. They should bring back food poisoning as well. Make it so the vomit chance doesn't start until you reach a certain percent of sickness so that there is some time to treat before it might happen.

You're effing cruel, dude. Finding out about this too late while surrounded by a horde would just be gruesome.

the snake looks like a copperhead to me, and those guys are poisonous.
the debuff should be like getting progressively more drunk and getting blurry vision and wobbly controls until you pass out/die
time to death dictated by your fortitude stat in game hours. Poison cure should be a trader Jen, only doc visit treatment. No home remedy. Cuz you know, she has to suck the poison out.

You mean they should be venomous. Something poisonous only affects you if you eat it, and I don't think you mean you want to get sick from eating snake meat?
Having played a lot of green hell recently I for one am glad the snakes aren't!

Yeah, the snake in game is almost definitely a rattlesnake of some sort. It's Arizona, so a western diamondback I would assume. So it really should have a more serious debuff, even if it isn't something that kills you. That said, I did mod that in that they make you sick and debuff you. TFP have mentioned doing more with animals still, so maybe they will do a pass on them soonish.

You're not supposed to use the snake as a bola. Just. So you know.
Man, I coulda swore that they used to poison. Maybe I imagined that. I'd be okay with this, though, it just makes sense.

Omg. We can throw rocks...calculating...we NEED to be able to throw snakes. Poisonous snakes. Or maybe just freeze them in the snow, and use in the crossbow.
and obviously, chickens and vultures.

OH MY GOSH I forgot about this. YEAH. Scoring a headshot with a chicken would have to have an achievement.
It would make a lot of sense for snakes to drop outta the ceiling in abandoned desert towns, as if they aren't creepy and hellish enough. Minding your own business, then suddenly, snakes.
"Suddenly, snakes" doesn't get used nearly enough in horror... hmm.
Wasteland 3 has frozen ferrets for ammo.
LMAO that is amazing
