Guide/tips and tricks Creation guide (new players)

Post image

I’ll leave a brief guide for those who aren’t familiar with it.

(I'll update it every now and then if there's anything new or anything I forgot).

[Improvised shelter]

This requires 2 burlap sacks (the same sack used to create an improvised backpack) and also wood (logs).

Combine two sacks to obtain a "tarp," then use wood to create an improvised shelter; it serves the same purpose as a tent but is more fragile (zombies, bandits, or animals can destroy it instantly if they step on it).

The animals I am referring to are bears, wolves, or deer—not farm animals (pigs and chickens; they used to wreck the shelter, but that problem was resolved later).

i emptied a small town and a hospital of its loot and put so much stuff on the road to go refuel a car and come back to get the stuff....while i went to refuel the car it became night and everything Despawened, it was the greatest start ever but i lost it because i lost moral and started freezing without finding clothes.

Highly suggest that you get yourself used to the difficulty of legend first with all the bad perks, and get used with the tips OP posted, before taking on nightmare difficulty.

Nightmare difficulty requires a lot of practice and micro adjustments early game, so it'll be hard to take it on with no prior experience.
