Buildings and moving from coast :)

[dnoparker@gmail.com 3]

Which way should I move in relation to the coast when I first spawn? I have found myself running through an never ending amount of forest and rarely coming across buildings.

Every time I find do a small village to peruse through, I end up running to buildings that I can't get inside and then getting myself killed :P Any advice on knowing which buildings are explorable would be much appreciated!

All depends on where you spawned on the coast. The map is huge. I tend to go right with ocean on my right, if you run into a light house on the cost then keep going right. There are a few towns on the cost that usally have a axe and some basic food. When in doubt follow a paved road, just stay in the trees to make it hard to shoot you.
