Some tips: 1. Hunt in the mornings, fish in the evenings. Both of you want to hunt rabbits and/or chickens until you have 3 or 4 each. Cook and eat them as needed. Fish 3 - 4 fish every evening each. Always filet the fish for oil. You need the oil for antidote. Cook the fish to get you through the evening/night. Make health packs as soon as you can. Make antidote as soon as you can. Keep health packs on you....2 each. Keep the antidote at home. Have one ready to use at all times. 2. During the day, gather loot crates, wood, fiber, kelp, grub, metal scrap, and metal nodes. Craft as you run around gathering. 3. Craft 9mm handguns asap to help you survive encounters with wolves. Boars will leave you alone as long as you avoid them. They will be aggressive if you get to close too often. Elk are aggressive during the fall...their mating season. Avoid bears and cougars until you have rifles. 4. Avoid carrying a lot of ammo and other items in case you die. When you die, you are penalized by losing a percentage of your inventory. Following these few tips will help you get your feet under you. Continue to build up your base. Avoid placing a BCU until you have a roof and 4 walls to call home. Once a BCU is placed, Craft a wood stove. You can render animal fat into bio fuel and your wood fuel lasts longer in the wood stove. After that, continue to build your small base into a larger one. Build more power storage and mass storage. Start a garden. Gardens will easily supply you with your fruit and veggies. You may want to consider lengthening your year length/days or winter will be upon you before you are ready. You are new, so you need more time. I also suggest you turn hunters off until you are ready to add another level of difficulty to your game. You can turn hunters on or off anytime. All of your game settings can be changed any time. Hope this helps!!
1:50:35 it was a giggle when they found each other.... thought they'd not pay attention and both get attacked by something.. but nope.. just adorable "friendly fire", suddenly putting Sarge in critical danger :)
There are 2 different types of hunters. Rogue hunters that move all over the map, changing locations every few days. They will place a campfire where they set up camp. Then you have your regular hunters who will build bases within a certain radius from your base. The best ways to be aware of their locations are looking to your map at night for campfires and light emitted from glowsticks. Exploring the map to remove the fog of war helps you spot them. You can also see their camp fires while gathering, and hear them chopping at trees. Sometimes they will shoot at wild animals near their camps, too, so always be listening. They will also fish at your pond if they are close to your pond. So, be careful.
Glad you took some time to check this out, the funny for a viewer like myself, is watching you try to learn and understand, wtf Iam I doing. That is the best content.
at some point most people would just ignore those few that think there way is the only way. but i feet the way floppy dealt with was good and proper. you can get there by going in a straight line doesn't get much faster then that.
The day could not get any better! Floppy, a creator I despise more than life itself, is playing one of my favourite games!! You will die many, many times ☠❤
Very smart building by water..not sure why chat kept saying meadow was so great?? Even making a ramp/stairs into the water from your base is good for water replenishment or fishing
I usually get bored playing solo unless it’s a story driven game but this game I prefer solo then an annoying person messing everything up and yeah I know that’s only my mates but it’s hard finding another person who likes this sort of game and can actually be useful still it’s fun to mess around time to time in this game have a good day
i just started watching the vod , as you probably realized in the end probably ,the game is not fast paced and very grindy . i have 800 hours in this already and although it gets easier when you grasp the basics and be more efficient , the pain that you constantly need to grind never ends LUL. Im in the process of building a big glass pyramid on the SW lake so ill probably farm for the next 6 months LOL
P.s. f*** ark. And f*** their devs. Hate that p*s franchise as a whole. Server jumping with dragons to servers with no dragons. F*** ark.... *beep* ...and the devs just made everyone basically buy the game again because of their update to the new format of unreal engine. F*** Ark lol sorry for the rant. Not to mention it broke up my gaming crew of friends that game. "Let's everyone build our own bases and not 1 big one, then get demolished by dragons with 20 turrets pointing in every direction" mannnnn f*** ark 😂🤬

You get cloth from rabbits, wolves, bears, cougars, etcetera. Higher level animals give you more items.
OMG, Kelvin used, “deduced”. I’m in new streamer love.

You always walk past fibre, boxes and herbs. I just wana cry......😭
Because I am showcasing a new game, I am not trying to collect everything.
I ALWAYS build near one of the bigger lakes.
Oh, and keep bandages and health packs in your belt/action bar. I keep mine in slots 7 and 8.
What game is this
Steam should be giving you some kickbacks on the sales of these games. I have been buying up some of the games on sale.
It kills me that I wasn't watching this, every possible thing you can do wrong you are doing lmao. Of course I was no better when I first started ;)
It's a great game to play with at least one other person. It's really rough starting out. I get bored with it playing solo though.
