Food Rotting in chest in DE?
Just wanted to know if anyone else has noticed their foot rotting in their home chest in DE. It feels like it is but I can't tell for sure. Anyone know?

it does rot, they made this change on purpose

chest no longer does ANYTHING to slow down food decay. dont store food in the chest.
store it inside an alchemy bag on the floor inside the house instead. this way you can keep it fresh for a SILLY long time. it still rots in there dont be fooled but its slowed down massively.

get the preservation backpack. food does not expire inside it. also just another FYI you can still do hobo camps in New Sirocco. so you can keep your food in the preservation bag near the exit of the town or just inside one of your houses. not super easy to get it, but worth it IMO

I will quickly add that the tool tip says its slowed by the same amount as the alchemy backpack but that does not seem to be accurate

stop spreading missinformation.

the perservation bag and the alchemy bag have the same food decay rate. there is no bag that prevents food decay.

people never test this before makeing claims like yours and thus missinformation is made by them and spreads. there is no way to prevent food decay completly in outward anymore in the DE.

you can only slow it down greatly.

first part is also false information.

by the time you can access new sircocco you can make the food store food issues become obsolete anyway. game ends soon afterwards anyway. new sircocco is one of the last things you can do. so this is pretty useless and also not new information either as new siroccos entire map counts as YOUR HOUSE. so of course stuff doesnt despawn there. it also has nothing that can respawn to begin with and you cannot own a house in there as you pretty much own the town instead.

wow really aggressive. I did test this weird you would claim I didnt. I have both backpacks and I left the bag on the ground in New Sirroco for 285 days, pearl eggs still intact. And Yes I did mention you can lay the bag in a HOUSE as well. thanks for going way over board to explain something I successfully explained in 1 sentence.

ah yes. the classic mistake. your DAYS passed is irrelevant. HOW these days pass is relevant. it has nothing to do with the bag at all. and then acting like that after beeing told youre wrong.

food in a bag on the floor only rots under these circumstances :

you are WITHIN the same map.
AND you are NOT inside a LOADING SCREEN no matter what loading screen it is. go figure how most of your pass where passed and youll notice something here.

this has nothing to do with the preservation bag tough. and your food still rots. stupid easy to test with salmons in cierzo. the bags preservation % does work but it wont fully stop food decay as you can never avoid the above circumstances entirely.

so your claim is false. you cannot stop food decay entirely. with no bag. was tested countless times by others long before already. people would only use the perservation bag outside boss battles if what you say was true. but it simply isnt the case.

so many people spread missinformation in outward to this day without actually doing a proper test first and paying attention to details.

everything has been figured out by this point. there is no more secrets or unknown mechanics. just people still saying things that are not the case.

its the same with the nonsense that you cannot enter caldera without doing faction first. there is STILL people around who believe this to this day.

i WONDER could you have said any of that information without being a condescending sphincter?

Nothing wrong.
Food of course do rot in stash.
If you have so much food until it rot, it means you don't really need them anyway

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
