Agrivo 0 Posted July 15, 2020 So I've just started a few days ago and so far im liking it, even though i keep dying from hunger or zeds lol. I get confused with the maps and navigation as well, any tips or tricks that could help enjoy the game more? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zalic 41 Posted July 15, 2020 First item to find is a knife or hatchet. Something sharp. This will aid in food and fire. Kill chickens for there meat when you start. Dont drink from ponds streams or rivers unless you have a container and chlorine tabs. Once you have a sledge hammer or gun kill a cow. Cook and store the meat in a crate and bury it. Animal fat will keep you fed for hours. Keep some tetramyacin "antibiotics" on you incase you catch a cold from the rain or if you drink nasty water. Avoid strangers and you should be able to survive for a long time. Oh yah if you hear a bear, get as far away as you can. God speed out there and i love you more then a friend.

Homeschooliazon 87 Posted July 16, 2020 Watch recent tutorials and tipps videos on youtube, that's where I got all my infos over the years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Agrivo 0 Posted July 16, 2020 I've been watching the vids but they're not as much help as I'd hoped, i was looking for like a walkthrough tutorial or something. I've mostly just been winging it and hoping for the best, sometimes i get really lucky and make it as far as gorka and other times i end up on servers that have been picked clean. Aside from not knowing how to craft half the shit i need to ie chests and stuff, I've basically been learning as i go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlickDicDaddy 9 Posted July 17, 2020 Best advice for navigation is just to keep playing looking out for landmarks and certain buildings power lines are another good one if you play for a week or two you were going to notice a major difference in your navigating the map. Been playing now for over two weeks and I'm absolutely loving this game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zalic 41 Posted July 17, 2020 The more you play the easier it gets to navigate. I have a home base in the north of the map but when i get really bored i go on "walk about" to explore the map. Do this a few times and you'll learn the map. As long as you know where you are the names of towns aren't that important. A compass is handy as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Agrivo 0 Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) I've gotten better at navigation, managed to make my way to polana today, my plan is to reach gorka before i take a break. Thanks for the advice guys, I've gotten quite far, got enough food and gear to last me a good long while. Although now im having trouble staying warm now that im getting farther north Edited July 17, 2020 by Agrivo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
