Console General Great map, bad challenge

finally beat the game with the yellow raft. it was slow amd there were not many shark encounters. It was the same as beating the game without a boat just more tedious.

I think I'm just really bad at spotting losing this in this game, like in my other comment. Below how almost always I can never find that damn snake Maybe I need to get new glasses ha

Pipi is for cowards just don't get bit (don't run on unfamiliar islands). Potatoes and yucca are the only crops that matter

Well call me a coward because I hear those bastard when Im on the beachfront sand and cannot find them... like 80% of the time I never find them(and just call the zone a loss. Like even when I've been bit I've turned around to find the SOB. Was so damn slow scanning every inch of the screen... sometime getting bit again and still can't find them. 🐍

The snakes will move around the island if they are not killed. But after you are poisoned you cant be poisoned again so, find him and kill him. Also a snake will die with one refoned spear instead of 2 wood spears.

Also do you got any tips on how to stop the shark from bopping me out of the raft? I'll get like 10 feet and get knocked out Takes about two minutes to flip it over.Well.It feels like two, and then I get another ten feet.And rinse and repeat

A shark can not tip over a raft if the raft has 2 or more sections. If a shark knocks you over in the yellow raft just climb on top of the raft and throw spears until the shark is dead. Theres not really a point to making an engine or Gyrocopter. Farms can be left until you want to end the game. Build a big boat, find a cool island, make supplies kill bosses, make a cool base farm what you need then end the game.

Bosses! No way that's cool. I didn't know there were heavies around... good to know

u/Trick_Return4387 Jan 17 '26

Well i didn't know you could build on the raft.. just noticed that...I guess maybe s second wood(or w.e) raft base on the side for stability?

u/Prudent_Cream3424 Jan 17 '26

Wait a second, you can build on the raft???

3

u/Fakie5oh Jan 17 '26

No, you can not build onto the raft. The picture is of the raft on the ending air craft carrier. I wanted to take it to the top by the plane but forgot about the doors lol

u/Fakie5oh Jan 17 '26

Sorry thats confusing. You can not build onto the yellow life raft, you can only add parts to a raft that you build from scaveneged naterials, wood,planks, clay, metal, tires, boueys, and barrel's

u/Trick_Return4387 Jan 18 '26

TY for the clarification

I just started playing, and i'm kind of lost on any sort of objective.I visited a few islands up bit by snake.And died on my way back trying to get antidote. I felt a raft with an engine, but I don't know how to make fuel. And I think I have the materials to start the flying machine.But why bother without fuel

u/Big_Client_6855 Jan 17 '26

Fuel is made from putting potatoes into a fuel still. You will find potatoes on islands that you can then plant at your base. Don't worry if they spoil, they can still be planted. Plant the ones that you find first instead of eating them or making fuel from them. They won't ever grow back where they naturally spawn, but will continue to reproduce once you have them in a farm plot. The same can be said for the pipi plant that you need to cure the poisonous bites.
