Basically, I've noticed I eat WAY more food than my buddy.
We've been playing this world a lot - it's about day 100, max difficulty, we went through a fad of thirty days of Hordes every night for the fun of it - so we've sunk a lot of points into our attributes and skills. I went into Fortitude and Strength mainly, and maxed Iron Gut to try and save on food. But as I've said I always end up eating more food than my friend: we just did the county jail and twice I had to stop and eat two steak and chips because I realised I had the hunger icon.
Now -- there could be perfectly normal factors here: We went in gun-heavy, me using shotgun and tac rifle - even aiming uses stamina. I switched to my club here and there and did a flurry of heavy attacks - when it comes to the radioactives there is no point using light attacks, it's too subtle for them. I threw a few grenades - maybe throwing them cost stamina. I Got hurt quite a bit and I have the mutant genes healing skill - maybe healing more and faster uses more food as opposed to first aid kits. I would say my buddy does largely as much the same as me, even using a machete for melee, but avoids as much physical harm ... to the point he hasn't died once in 90 days whereas I've died 12 times. We have a theory he is (a) immortal; (b) a really bad teamplayer when it comes to doing a Thelma and Louise into the final Death Room and lets Thelma go it alone; or (c) the game hates me, as when he DID jump into the final death room all by himself the zombies STILL tried to get at me. Nevertheless he eats a lot less of his food by the end of the POI - 2 or 3 steak and chips to my six.
Is there anything there which says why I am using so much more food than him? Or have I done something else, like maybe perking into some skill or attribute which somehow uses more food? Fact is, I noticed I was hungrier more often much early on in the world, around the time I started perking into Iron Gut (also maybe healing). As a very last resort, I am wondering if maybe a coding issue means you use more food with Iron Gut than was intended - in Borderlands 2 there was an issue where a mis-coded skill meant shotguns lost accuracy the more you perked into them.
Any thoughts or ideas, thanking you in advance...
