I played the survival mode for 6 hours two days ago, which is a new save file. The game is really difficult and there is always a sense of crisis. I also used the controller to play the whole process. It's important to be familiar with the terrain and locations in this mode so you know where beds are nearby. Is there any position where I can easily defeat the enemy? (For example, if you jump to a high point, the zombies cannot attack you)
Of course, the following experience is based on the new archive in the early stage, and the later situation has yet to be discovered
About basic needs
1. Food. In the original version, food can add blood and have other effects. But in survival mode, if your hunger is not satisfied, then these effects will not take effect, and it will just be "food" to fill your stomach. The effect of padding the belly is determined by the price of the food. If you are too hungry, you will eat the food with higher value first; if you are not hungry, you will eat the food with low value.
2. Drink water. You can drink clean water through a water pump. You can quickly cancel this drinking action by pressing the direction keys to drink water quickly. You can drink water from small pools, streams, rivers, etc. in the wild, but you will be easily infected with diseases. If you happen to have a bottle with you, you can fill it with water at the water source and get dirty water, and 3 dirty water can pass through. The cooking workbench produces 1 pure water, but I think it is more convenient to build more water pumps (the workshop produces water).
3. Sleep. Please do not frequently use 1 hour of sleep in the game. This will cause you to suffer from lack of sleep (fatigue). I think this is considered abnormal in the beta version. Well, you have to sleep for more than 6 hours or more to get the effect of adequate sleep. And sleep can also be archived. It is recommended to sleep for a while if you have nothing to do. You cannot sleep for more than 3 hours in a sleeping bag in the wild, which means that you will never get high-quality sleep in a sleeping bag in the wild. Lack of sleep means that when fatigue is high, it will reduce your endurance and intelligence.
4. The higher the fatigue value, the lower your AP will be.
5. If you are extremely thirsty, you will receive periodic physical damage and lose blood.
6. Xiaofuning will increase your fatigue value.
7. Caffeine is addictive and is found in cola, but caffeine will reduce your fatigue value (temporarily).
8. Weakness will increase the damage received. Weakness is usually caused by poor sleep or illness.
About combat skills
1. Make good use of landmines to deal with enemies in power armor or enemies such as monsters and death claws. Please be sure to use more landmines in this mode. It has played a very good role that he had hardly played in the game before.
2. Don’t kill the monsters you don’t need to kill, and concentrate on your task. Unless you find that the point has the resources you want
3. The most important thing is not to fight frequently.
4. I think followers have more disadvantages than advantages in this mode. Sometimes your companions will actively start a battle with the enemy, causing you to be discovered. However, you can't save him directly unless you kill the enemies around him. Otherwise you are likely to be beaten to death while inserting the needle. In the end, if you run away or you happen to have no medical needles on you, your companion will go home on his own, and I think you won't be willing to look for him or her.
5. Use V more often. It is really dangerous not to use V. Mines will always make you waste more than an hour of game time without finding a bed and observing distant monsters, because now your enemies will not be shown in the compass in this mode.
6. When you open the toilet door or the shelter (blue tube), be careful and step back immediately. Be careful of bombs falling
7. Once you are familiar with walking alone, you can make good use of mines. This will make the fight easier. For example, when you enter a room, you know that an enemy will come to the right. You just throw a mine in there. Then just go to the left path, and you will receive experience after a while.
8. Jet is really an artifact. It is really good at dealing with most monsters and fast-moving monsters. You must make good use of it.
9. Adrenaline, adrenaline is like the anger of the barbarian king. Of course, the damage here is added rather than the critical hit chance. When dealing with big monsters, you can effectively improve your performance by killing the small monsters around you first. of harm. For example, in the first deathclaw, the surrounding predators are a good choice for your adrenaline to perfectly stack. And sleeping at any time lowers your adrenaline.
About dialogue skills
1. Now it is not possible to use S/L method to forcefully and successfully persuade. Before persuading, you must pay attention to the current situation, such as the two triggered by walking to the cafeteria at the beginning. The task of drug dealers confronting each other (forgive me, I really can't remember the name suddenly). At this time, if you directly choose the dialogue option "If you don't put down the gun, then I will take care of this matter" and it fails, then the opponent will directly kill you with a headshot.
2. Don’t be greedy when persuading more bottle caps. Just click on the suggestion. Of course if you happen to have a sleeping bag or something nearby. You can also use the "Slow S/L method".
For now, I can think of these experiences that everyone can talk about.
Additional point
The weight of ammunition is also very fatal. When you are familiar with the task and do not need to use weapons, it is best to store the ammunition and weapons first. Otherwise it will just be a burden.
