Not only did they drink in some pretty sights, experiences like this provide essential reference materials for ensuring our version properly represents the region. 🏔️
When you've run out of ammo, eaten all your food, and the threat of infected looms closer, all you'll have is hope.

Make it rain! 🌧️
When the 0.70 update hits the Closed Alpha, testers may notice that rain water is no longer a particle effect, but now pools on the ground and drips down walls.
