Forum:FEV Aqua Pura glitch

So I infected the Aqua Pura with the FEV virus. I never drank any of it. But yesterday, I was in Fort Bannister. I hadn't discovered it until then and the Brotherhood was there (except they hate me so I killed them) doing their ambush thing. There were Brahmin there with the Aqua Pura barrels. Anyway, I randomly got the "Continued consumption of FEV laced water will be fatal" message. I didn't drink any. Then about 30 seconds later when I was about to beat Paladin Jensen's face in with a shovel, I fell over dead. I swear to god, this game was somehow thinking I was drinking the FEV water. I didn't have any in my inventory or anything, so... wtf? I hadn't even looked at the dead brahmin that had any either. Also, I had finished the main Broken Steel quest ages ago, back in September, so I've gone a long time without falling over dead.

I thought I had read something before about this in the Aqua Pura articles but I didn't see anything when I just looked it up. I did re-load the save and I didn't die the next time, but it sucks thinking I could croak at any second. Has this happened to anyone else? 07:43, April 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've never infected the water with the FEV, but I have gotten random "Aqua Pura Effect has worn off" messages even though I didn't drink any. --MadDawg2552 17:58, April 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * This happens when you give infected water to the water beggars. each bottle they drink counts against your total, I think killing them before you get the message may counteract this. Sheepbiter 10:58, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
