We need some more tutorial stuff in the game. Getting started with the game should be smooth otherwise new players will leave before they really give the game a try.

 

Here's my 2cents

Save up for an Ak47 or an m16a2

Buy lots of bullets

I have a low-level character right now (I think level 1 or 2). Created it for the sake of finding new bugs and developing strategy. Should be an interesting side project.

Newbie guide: Do all the quests, train your marskmanship, use the pistol and shotgun you get from quests, grind, save money, do more quests, buy an SKS rifle or an FN-Scar, finish all the quests, save more money, buy better equipment, and keep killing more zombies.

Think SP to EXP ratio. Even if a group of only 2 zeds is small and kinda waste of time. If they are the right types, you can possible get 120 EXP+ for 2 SP. I use the Barret 50. cal, and I dont miss often. So I 1 hit stuff. Most players 1 hit things, or 2 hit at most. So try to think how much EXP your getting for the SP your spending. The hordes and large groups arnt always worth the fleeing, and SP they take up. Attacking small zeds it tedious, and can get frustrating, but the EXP is worth it. That's how I got all my levels. I have not completed all the quests. I just walk block to block, poping every zed I see. Walk into a shop, buy 40 pounds of ammo, and leave and shoot some more stuff. xD

There is... just so much blood...

Think about trade offs. On what exactly you want to kill. Not everything is worth it, but some are.

When there is a location full of zombies (without any dead zombies) kill the largest group of individual zombies. When you do this a group of zombies will fill that gap. So you have a much higher chance of getting some "Good" zombies.

Any Horde [600-1800 xp]
Any Large group [375-875 xp]
Regular group's and up [250 xp]
Extremely strong zombies [125-250 xp]
Very Strong zombies [ 100-150 xp]
Strong zombies [100 xp]

These I consider to be the good zombies. (the xp values are not entirely exact.)

If you find a horde or large group, try not to die. If you do you will have to choose to either stand up and try to kill it again. Or be rescued and have another player probably kill your find.

Changed Color of post
Only admins or Moderators should use colored posts.

I have looked And I decided to sell my AK And G36 for a Rifle.Marksmanships my main stat anyway.

How in hell do you set up a safehouse? That would be nice to know.

It's not yet implemented. ZP team is already in the progress working on it though.

Hint: They already have Barricade items lined up. They weigh 5 ENC a piece though so it can be troublesome to stock.

COME BACK IRUS COOOOOMEEE BAAAACK!

The Link to the tutorial does not work.

I think its an old link. This should be changed. Here are the new ones:
Link: First Steps
Link: Guide

Thanks for the links,i actually thought the old link lead to the wiki documentation, that was what i was actually looking for.
