Drunk and Disorderly not working....
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

So I found the note that gives you the quest and I activate it.

I drink a couple of beers, it says I'm buzzed and I go kill 2 zombies barehanded. It doesn't work so I figure I need to be drunk not just buzzed.

I drink 6 more beers and I'm inebriated. I kill 2 more zombies barehanded. It doesn't work, so I assume there must be a level or drinking that actualy says "drunk" which is what the quest actually asks for (be drunk and kill 2 zombies bare handed)

So I drink 15 grain alchohol trying to get my status to "drunk" but that doesn't work I'm still just "inebriated" according to the game (I know in real life that means the same thing, but the game is asking for "drunk" and being "inebriated" hadn't worked)

So I bandage myself up and keep chugging alchohol and kill 2 more zombies, I've lost count of how many drinks I've had at this point but I've exhausted all that I was carrying (at least 8 or 9 beers + more than 20 grain alchohol)

At this point I've done pretty good and killed at least 8 zombies barehanded while "inebriated". The stupid quest still has not given be credit for completion (and yes it's the active quest).

I'd gotten fairly lucky in those fights, I was wearing armor (a mix of leather, scrap and a military vest) and yes it was day time (i was just kiting them backwards and getting them to stick on rocks as much as possible)

So I give up and go home, nights coming. Thankfully I wasn't too far away since I'm walking crazy slow.

Now it's been 2 (game) days and I'm just hiding in my house crafting and eating waiting for the inebriation to wear off. Well, it still hasn't gone away. 2 (game) days later I'm still drunk, I've lost over 100 health and wellness, I'm down to 50 (had started at 190 something)

I figure I'm going to die anyway let me try doing it while not carrying any weapons and at night. So I put my weapons in storage, go out at night and figure I'm probably going to die and well, I got lucky. I killed 2 more zombies barehanded, they were the weak girl ones that die pretty easily.

So I've tried all that I can think of. Carrying weapons, not carrying weapons, night time, day time, buzzed, inebriated. I've so far killed at least a dozen zombies barehanded and the only thing I haven't tried is without armor.

But the quest never gives me credit for the kills.

And I'm about to die from running out of health and wellness from being inebriated.

How many more days before inebriation wears off?

Is there a fast way to recover lost health and wellness after/if it wears off? Or is the same normal slow methods (food, etc)?

How does this stupid quest work? Are there more requirements that the quest does not tell you?

Or is the quest just broken and now I'm screwed over and going to die?

Did the quest no issues, 2 grain alcohol....isnt there a timer on it ?
How much active quest do u have ? maybe a few time the same ?

For the wellness: Bacon and egg or meat steam....if got enought ingredient....try to drink only golden tea...

Do u have an old save ?

When i did it, i used gun and arrow for a few headshot then finishing them with bare hands.

I dont like that but....well, try it on creative to see if the bug is still there.

Godd luck....and good night^^

I have 2 quests, but only one active and thats the drunk and disorderly. I also have kill screamers, but it's deactivated since it only lets me have one active at a time.

Yea I have plenty of food and tea, the problem is I can't eat/drink it fast enough to keep up with the wellness loss. Eat some food/drink and I'm full and not thirsty. I'm losing more points to being inebriated than I am gaining from eating/drinking. So it's a slow death.

I've killed them completely barehanded and it still isn't counting. I just went back and tried killing another by starting with weapons and than switching to barehanded after I knocked him down. Still didn't count the kill. I even smashed up their corpses after the kill barehanded and still not counting.

And no, I have no other save. I'm 40 days into my first game and I haven't died since around day 20

It's day 3 of being inebriated, it still hasn't worn off and I'm down to 40 health/wellness... just watching the slow death from alcohol poisoning... If I'm still drunk by day 42 I probably won't survive the next blood moon.

Maybe I should just get myself killed now to stop the wellness loss from going further if it's permanent....

Unfortunately yes....suicide is the worse but only option, normally your wellness cant go lower...

I wonder how much grain alcohol u drank.

But yeah try in another game in creative that quest just to be sure, max 3 grain alcohol.
BTW isnt there a timer on that quest ?

And for the other quest it's still active, just not followed, but should count if u kill screamer with the alcohol quest active.

There's a time for the "bonus" of the quest.

The screamer quest also had a "bonus" timer, but I was able to comlete that one just fine for it's normal reward after the bonus timer had run out.

You may just be in "cheat mode" and you forgot you activated it.
While in CM no achievements can be attained. Check it, just to be sure.

I'm pretty sure you just drank too much. If I recall correct, "drunk" comes after the initial 'buzz', after some 3-5 beers or such.

This isn't an achievement, it's a quest in game. And I've had no trouble completing half a dozen other quests on this character.

You're right, how could I miss that! :steamfacepalm:

I thought drunk and disorderly said you had to get drunk and kill two cops barehanded, not just any random zombies? I haven't seen one in a while but I swear that's what it said last time. While killing any zombies barehanded can be tricky, with the cops it's hard becasue you have to finish them off before they explode, and those last couple shots need to be timed just right. Like I said, it has been a while - two alphas back I think - but I'm pretty sure I had to kill cops for that one. And 4 or 5 beers was all I used.

Curious to see if this was it... would explain everything, including how important thorough reading is.

I might be mixing up that one and the other one about killing cops though, but worth checking. I don't get many quests anymore since starting new A15 game in Navezgane - ran gen seems to give you tons but in Nav most of the ones I get are bought at traders for some reason. Of course I've got tons of AK parts so guess it's just weird RNG.

Im in A15 Navezgane and I get quests roughly every 5 to 7 (game) days.

The wierd thing is every quest that has dropped has always given me two copies of the activation note. So I've been using one and stashing the second for when I feel like doing them all over again.

Drunk and Disorderly specifically says "Kill some zombies with your fists while drunk"

After you activate it you get a 0/2 counter (so I assume you need to kill 2) and a 5 minute clock with (optional) next to it. Which I assume functions the same as the optional clock that came with "Silence of the Lambs ~ kill 3 screamers" where the timer runs out but you can still do it for the one reward without the bonus reward.

I first tried against the weaker zombies, I was down near the strip club when I activated it and the stripper zombies were pretty easy to fight barehanded. Since I stayed drunk for a couple of days I started doing it against a few medium strength zombies using a fence to kite them and get them stuck.

But I didn't try it vs any of the harder specials.

After 3 days drunk I was down to 40 wellness so I killed myself and respawned without being drunk.

From the config files make sure you have one of the two buffs described above.

Kunovega :

Suicide and go on, try on creative to see if u get the bug again.

For me it was working with 2 grain alcohol on simple Zombies, no special.
Dont try to punch cops....XD
