The Quest for Milk

John_Candlebury · 2013-09-09T18:18:13.000Z

So I have done almost everything the game has to offer, cleared mines, brusted triffid hearts with my robotic hands, combated the manga horrors with nothing but a wrench, beaten jabberworks to death with a pipe and profanated ancient temples in the search of treasure, but still two things elude me: the mythical spiral caverns and even more ridiculous, the fresh taste of milk and the happines given by a milk mustache.

So I ask: Have anyone made the unachievable and found a glass bottle of nice fresh milk?
Or should I abandon my hopes and drink clean water for all eternity?

I found it.

I fucking found one.

I spawned next to a grocery store

Logical conclusion:

You feel terrible for milking your mother!

Not as hard as you’d think IRL.

I have found 3 spiral caverns. You find them in mines. I got a ton of vortex stones lol…

EDIT: Typos

John_Candlebury · 2013-09-11T20:59:39.000Z

You have found spiral caves? How did you managed this? All the mines I have finished lack the stairs to access them have I not been looking carefully enough?

Just found a full gallon jug of moo juice in a kitchen with my last character. She guzzled half, puked, then chugged the rest before it could go bad.

It’s funny. Until I saw this thread I’d not really noticed the lack of potable milk in Cataclysm before. Maybe it’s because I can’t drink the stuff in RL, but I always just emptied the jugs and used them for other stuff.

I’ve been thinking that we should have small herds of goats or feral beefalo hybrids wandering around the landscape, especially near farms.

Something to try and chase down, tame and milk (although that might need actual grappling/subdual mechanics and even Dwarf Fortress ‘JUST’ got to programing in the ability to end fights without killing someone.)

Then again, for all we know this near future get their meat from vat flesh, what horrors would their ‘contamination’ bring?

You are already able to tame a dog, so why not apply a similar mechanic/item to goats/cows?

Require an animal that can both be milked and defend itself should the need arise…
Logical conclusion: Laying siege to cities with a herd of trained war moose.
