After the positive response to my recent 7 days to die tips video I thought I’d put together a game I was known for a few years back The Forest. Here I look at beginners tips but I think I will be doing some advanced tips if this is received well.

22.04.2022Even though I played this game at peaceful level, it's still scary especially when you start to explore the cave and literally you played alone

22.04.2022I barely researched this game (heard it was better than Green Hell), I didn't realise I had to survive mutants… I found the beach, thought this would be a beautiful open, scenic place to build. I got attacked within half a day and found myself in their cave, tried to find my way out but stumbled upon 4 mutants in a tunnel… I lasted barely 2 days 🙁

22.04.2022The only thing is u need to clean up your base a bit because there are just loads of scattered wall everywhere other than that great base

20.04.20228:58 there's actually an infinite cloth trick with cave 5, the boxes that drop cloth respawn every time you leave the cave, you can use this cloth to get infinite rope

20.04.2022I think fishin is easier with a spear, crafted with two sticks, you can also upgrade it to an advanced spear

19.04.2022When fishing use a spear, not an axe. So much easier
billhillard
19.04.2022A video like this should be obligatory before starting the game. I started the game with zero clue what the game was like, or really about and after an hour I was dead. The game does not seem to have a tutorial. And the controls are NOT very intuitive. You will find yourself in combat with no clue how to use a weapon in game, or even equip one! This is not the kind of gam that you can pickup as you play it, like say, Fallout, or the Elder Scrolls. Nice video, thanks dude.

19.04.2022Step unclear i killed turtles and my gf started hitting me
cal
19.04.2022All I know is the wooden features of the base must have taken ages to build. Getting a tree gives you like 3-6 logs and it takes 5 to build a wall so this is dozens upon dozens of trees to cut down then haul to base then build good gideo though

19.04.2022It took me and my friend 4 hours to figure out there is a jump button
We played on VR though and the jump button isn't like most other games on VR controllers

19.04.2022Alright so real beginner tip, don't build around the plane, find the biggest village then head to the hut with the red paint then go inside the cave and make your way to the modern axe and the map, get out of the cave and go back to the red paint hut then go straight, you will encounter a small drop be careful and go down, you will then encounter a river you should setup camp near the beach or on the mountain on your left when you look at the ocean, there is only one way on the mountain and it's going around it so maybe a zipline would be usefull. You will get a lot of deer, rabbit, lizard, racoons and you are not to far from 2 crocodile spawn. The cannibals will rarely visit this part of the map but if they do you should kill them if you are not outnumbered and very important you should alway burn the body for bones and it makes the evidences disappear so you're less likely to get ganged up on. It took the cannibals 6 days to find my very big base because i let one escape, even with them knowing where i am i only get attacked every 3-4 days and mostly by mutants that would attack you anyway. There is also a fresh water pond near the base of the mountain and one on top of the mountain with plenty of fish, there is also a turtle spawn on the beach. Build lots of drying racks and make sure they are safe from attacks because you don't need to cook dried meat so you can bring it on your adventures (also it won't spoil on you). There is plenty of trees and plenty of space to build and if you spawn near the big village which is a really common spawn (head left of the plane when you're getting out) you will only have to walk around 2 min to get to your base if you respawn and if you take the coast line you will avoid potential cannibals from the big village. Another pro of this location is being near the big village you will be close to the red paint, modern axe, tons of cloth, soda cans modern arrow (15 in the same room as the modern axe and they respawn) tons of dynamite meds and circuit boards. Also if you follow the river near your base you will encounter a 2 hut village if you cross the river near the village there will be a cave with no cannibals and there are 2 watches that will respawn so you can pretty much make bombs for days. That's pretty much it i think. Long ass text but that is the best start of a game to me and the only one where you don't get constantly fucked by cannibals.
Edit:Oh shit i forgot to mention, the guy in the video talks about ropes from the happy birthday traps, quick tip is to combine 7 cloth to make 1 rope!

18.04.2022Any idea how I can change the control to left handed? I need to swap run to right shift and crouch to right ctrl?

18.04.2022A year later after this is made I find this video fire my pc back up. Crashed near the map and compass. Just ran back and I am staking stones and shelves around the crash. That cannibal village is loaded with luggage. I couldn't get it all. Need to get a slingshot quick I need a place to sleep. I used the yacht last time I played so this is something new for me.

18.04.20221. Build a base around the plane (when you reload the game the meds and food will respawn)
2. The plane can be used as a defense
3. Make sure to keep your guard up and build defenses
4. Use stone walls against mutants
5. Always have a supply of stone arrows ready (you can mark it)
6. Skull lamps last forever
7. Go for headshots with your bow and burn cannibals to get bones
8. Put drying racks and water collectors down
9. Use large cabinets near the plane to store meds and snacks
10. Use traps next to fences
11. Always take resources with you and be efficient while farming (use pouches and rock bags to carry more).
14. Get rid of tall trees near your base. Cannibals can climb them and jump into your base.
15. Get the map
16. Never run into your base when a mutant is following you
17. Use spears to fish and put them on your drying rags
18. Use climbing ropes. Stairs can be destroyed
19. Sleep at night. Cannibals will spawn faster at night.
20. Use zip lines to travel fast

18.04.2022I highly recommend using a spear like all the time. A weak spear is only 2 sticks and a upgraded spear is just a weal spear + 2 cloth + 3 bones. It does quick shots to the cannibals, takes down all the bushes and small trees in one shot, and hunting animals/catching fish is easier with the spear (until you get a bow). I usually carry it around when I don't know what to use. Also doesn't block a lot of your screen for those who care about that.
As you progress through your first days, scope out areas that the cannibals don't usually go. I've played through the game a few times, the first time I set up my base right in an area where the cannibals run through regularly. I stopped playing for a long time because I couldn't figure out why they kept coming right up to me on the early days. The next time I waited to set up my base and put it in a spot where they don't run through. For the first 10 days or so I was able to safely work on my base and watched the cannibals run routes near, but not towards, my base.
Honestly I think lizard armor is fine, especially early game. Save your bones in a basket for when you actually need bone armor.
Look for blueberries. You can make a pouch to carry them. If you can plant them in a garden or set your base up in an area near them, I would suggest that. They refill hunger, thirst, and energy, and you can carry a lot at a time so it's useful when you adventure and need food/water.
Boats are pretty fun, and you can make a small raft for very cheap. A house boat is generally more useful but more expensive. Boats can help you navigate parts of the map quicker and safer as the cannibals don't seem to like water.
Some people may be against this one. If you don't think it's cheating, check out the wiki and the map online. It can really help you learn how to craft and where to find the stuff you need to find. I know people think it ruins the game if you look at the map/wiki, but it's really easy to miss so much of the game if you just don't know it exists. Map also shows safe spots to make bases if that's something that interests you, although it's not too difficult to find your own.
