It's nice. I started thinking about trying weird paths and stuff just to find out if they are useful or not. If they were somewhat useful I left some gear to help traverse it. I should figure out how to use signs as well to tell people some paths are not recommended etc. It's really fun trying to help others and it's fucking relieving when you are low on stamina and someone just built a random bridge .

be sure to level up your connection with "the collector" as quickly as possible. He's near the distribution center south of lake knot city. He can be difficult to find and level up but he gives you a backpack cover that you can use to protect items that are on your backpack from timefall and weather. This is EXTREMELY useful later in the game when the weather is constantly rough. It was definitely one of the most useful items I had.

[@Sarstan]

I just finished the game a couple of days ago and kept thinking how stupid it is you have clothes that are fine in timefall, but can't just throw that fabric over your pack to protect everything. I wish I knew this was a thing early on!

But now I'm pretty much done.

[@EhCloserLook]

@@E5rael It ended up taking me 86h 18m to finish the DC version of the game. I started out on the regular version _thinking_ that I had bought the DC and then upgraded probably about 29 hours in? Anyways, the game was great. That said, F*** Gamerant because their website claimed that it took 30-35 hours to beat DS. For this reason I decided to start the game while I was preparing for a cross-country move IRL. But at about 65 hours in I realized that I was not even halfway through the game! This resulted in my basically pulling an all-nighter before my flight. It was really stressful, but I digress.

[@BloodTrinity]

Might already be mentioned by one of the tips in game, but if you throw down a hematic grenade, bullets that are shot through the blood cloud are able to deal damage to BTs. Same goes for throwing a grenade near a crowd of BTs and letting your blood cover them, shooting at the bloodstained parts of the BT also does damage to them. Also, there is a memory chip in one of the small caves at the side of the mountain a little to the south east of where you can find 'Elder', that memory chip contains blueprints that would let you build a new bike, which has increased battery life and also has shields.

[@bdbgh]

Here's some more tips (with game mechanics spoilers, so spoiler alert) -Bola shots to the head instantly knocks the target out, shots to the body only temporarily disables them -Want to get rid of the rain? put your stuff somewhere safe nearby and let the BTs drag you to the boss for that area, either escape the boss or kill it. Killing it will net you a whole lot of chiral crystal dust thing if you are in need of some -See MULEs chasing after you? just run them over with your bike or truck. Do note that this will damage anything that the MULEs are carrying -There's an optional upgrade for your backpack, a backpack cover. There's already a few guides around showing how you can get it -Hate going up to the elder on the mountain? Instead of going up from the MULE camp side of the mountain try going up on the exact opposite. Just go south from the Engineer's place and there's a pretty easy path for vehicles to reach up there. There's also something cool to see here. -You can sleep from the sitting position, in case you need to take a 10-20 minute rest yourself -There's a center of gravity indicator when you load up Sam, the white circle on the floor is the indicator -You can ride bikes up ladders -The power frames are worth using imho, especially when you encounter terrain that's hard for vehicles to pass through the first time around -You can get frostbite on your fingers and toes if you climb around in the snow for too long, it'll last a few sleep cycles and doesn't have negative effects as far as I can tell -When a spot gets a lot of pee, it'll attract the floating worms for you to harvest

[@Hammertin]

Death stranding seems like Hideo Kojima warning us of 5G. From the talking about expanding the network will cause more chiral storms and death(like more wireless radiation and its health effects). To the symbols used in game like the UCA logo being similar to the United Nations, the symbol when interacting with things or hacking(similar to zionism and the devils symbol). To the emails that that highlight the pros n cons of reconnecting. To the symbolism of the cufflinks themselves(our phones). Kojima leaves nothing to coincidence, his games always follow of trend, a theme, a meaning. Tell me he isn't warning of the global elite and 5G

After watching a video where someone drank a fifteen year old energy drink and did not die, I am convinced that stuff is invincible and eternal now, like twinkies.

Tip that made combat ALOT easier for me. If you equip your weapon to the weapon rack you can easily access it when needed by tapping the right d pad without having to go into the weapon/tools wheel. This also allows you to easily put it away when you want your hands free. This works with anything that you attach to your weapon rack (ladders, grenades, bola gun, etc.) Can put the item/weapon away by tapping it a second time. Quick weapon/tool access using the right D-Pad

I never knew this, gotta give it try today after work 👍👍

[@ravinathdev]

Nah let them have their fun

[@bunnymech]

Tip 1: If you time it right you can jump over the mule scan wave to avoid being scanned. Tip 2: You can put cargo that you are holding in your right or left hand straight into a truck or onto trike without opening cargo menu. Tip 3: Any mail that mentions seeing a "shiny object" is a hint on where to find a memory chip. Tip 4: Struggling to get ziplines to link up? Upgrading a zipline to rank 2 will increase its distance from 300 to 350. Rank 3 will however not increase any further. Connected ziplines a Rank 2 is reaching do not need to be upgraded to reach back.

A few stuff i found out. 1. Dont sleep in snowy areas, you will freeze to death. 2. When resting/sitting down, you can press L1 + down button to play with BB. You can press and hold R3 to focus camera on BB. 3. Hotsprings have different effects. The blue ones restore your stamina up to an additional 25%. Theres white,green,brown and blue i have found so far. 4. You can spam the like button to give multiple likes in one go. 5.Check post boxes for materials you can claim that are donated or lost by other players in the area. Then use it to build roads. 6. if you walked the same path a couple of times it creates a footpath for easy travel, this works really good especially in snowy areas as this will make walking faster by not having your feet deep in snow. 7. If you are brave enough and have a lot of hematic grenades, just let yourself get drag away by BTs and kill the boss. The area will be cleared away for a few delivery runs.

PROTIP: delivering other people’s cargo which you can grab en mass from shared lockers at distro centers or knot cities will get you a ton of Bridge Link points, both increasing your overall level and also increasing “sync level” every tenth level. Its not exactly clear what it is but it seems to increase the chance of other players stuff being in your world and vice versa, which is extremely helpful as you can imagine!

When I exited the Private Room, and was going up the elevator, they played a cut scene in the hospital room with Lisa and BB. Higgs came in with a bouquet of flowers and started asking whose birthday it was today. "Is it mommy's birthday?" (Shakes his head) "Is it BB's birthday?" (Shakes his head).

One issue I had was when you get dragged off to a mini boss fight in the middle of a timefall and your cargo gets scattered. Stuff fixed to your suit doesnt appear to fall off so I suggest stacking the grenades to your arms and/or thighs to avoid losing them all and having to run through the tar to try and pick them up again before attacking.

Put them in grenade pouches you can craft for your backpack.

[@MrJagermeister]

I realized that you’ll see other people’s avatars (they’re completely white) when you fight the catcher. They throw hematic grenades and blood pouches to you, so you can just pick up what they throw to defeat it instead of always carrying so many.

[@smolblockboi]

If you're having trouble with getting the rope counter timing, you can shoulder check the MULEs by holding both shoulder triggers to grip your pack and pressing attack. Then while they're stunned, you can quickly incapacitate them with the rope from behind. Keeps container damage to a minimum and is useful if there's nothing you can find to break.

CaptGeech I definitely think the best way is to go into the cargo menu and put EVERYTHING you can possibly carry on your back and then turn the canister around and spray it at yourself. It fixes everything at once and is a better use of it than individually hitting crates and boxes on your bike or the ground or whatever. Or hold triangle and dump everything on the ground and only pick up the deliveries you’re gonna make and just repair those. Your grenades and ladders and stuff generally get destroyed over the time fall anyhow, so don’t waste repair spray on them.

These are actually good tips, unlike other channels and articles that seem to have pretty useless advice. Great Video!

[@GuardianCitadel]

A big tip is rather than hauling and hoarding resources like metals, take the time to upgrade facilities you tend to use, or repair them, even if they aren't yours. This can cut down on your cargo load, and level 3 facilities are more resistant to decay and are more likely to be there later when you need them. Having access to well-levelled post boxes (cheap to upgrade!) can give you extra cargo to transport, or just a place to stash a pile of hematic grenades near a BT zone so you don't have to carry them everywhere you go. HIgher level generators charge you up faster and have a larger radius, and lookout towers are good for spotting cargo of opportunity, tagging mules, or even finding memory cards. Another big tip: You get likes 'social' likes from players by delivering their cargo, completing supply requests, and upgrading facilites. You don't need a "totally awesome bridge" to nowhere to farm likes. Check those post boxes (both yours and others') for dump-and-run cargo to fill out a delivery route and don't wait for someone else to trip on your stuff and like it. Lost cargo and 'entrust' jobs can pay in Likes pretty well. Rumor has it post boxes around Wind Farm have piles of undelivered cargo...

Nice vid dude. The detail in this game including the mechanics, are incredible. Blown away by it. Another that is simple but really impressed me Is the fact that sam is right handed.

The cargo sensor posts surrounding MULE camps will only detect cargo that has "container damage" health bars on them. Tools such as ladders, ropes and grenades aren't picked up. You can use cargo strategically to draw some away from the base while you Sneak in from another angle and loot their postbox. Or draw them into an ambush... When facing groups of MULES, smoke grenades can be used defensively as well as offensively. As long as they're in the smoke they'll be stunned for quite some time, this allows you to take out the entire group with your bare hands. I've taken out 5 at once this way.

[@nosherkhan3232]

I recently entered Chapter 3, and the first MULE camp that comes in my way, I took out like 10 dudes barehanded, and only used a container of Metals once to bash them. Even more impressive, I had the fragile cargo of the Elder on my back and it took no damage at all! This game is way too good!

[@CaveyMoth]

My tips: Do not attempt to walk adjacent to any vehicles while carrying a lot of cargo. Sam may inexplicably lose balance and start moonwalking, only to collide with an invisible wall, which deals damage to your cargo. Transfer cargo directly from the ground to your vehicle by pressing start and going to the cargo menu right after you exit the vehicle. This will save time and also give Sam fewer opportunities to flop over or moonwalk. Do not attempt to hide from BTs or even hunt them one by one with grenades. This is a waste of time. Instead, get yourself caught by them so that you can take on the easy boss, which only requires 10 or so hematic grenades, and can stop the rain for 5 seconds, and rewards you with tons of hematic crystals. Just be sure to leave your cargo a safe distance away before you run in for battle like a brave porter. Remember to do wheelies with your reverse trike to get over rocky terrain. You'll have pretty much no excuse to leave your bike behind as it can make it through some inedible obstacles, while having a lower probability of damaging your cargo than carefully traversing that terrain on foot, somehow. Even if Sam is over encumbered, he can still jump into his reverse trike and rocket off like a jacked up jackrabbit. It's like the trike has magic anti gravity powers. Don't expect to get any likes on your bridges or structures, no matter how perfectly placed they are. Perhaps someone else in another online dimension already put a structure there, so they don't see yours.. Or nobody likes you. But never fear, because you can still get lots of likes. All you have to do is drop some resources on the road building structures, and boom! You'll have tons of messages letting you know that people are using your road. And you didn't even have to finish it! Try to add resources to as many of these road building structures as you can without actually finishing them. You'll get so many likes to compensate for the likes that you didn't get by actually completing things. Keep on moonwalking on. Remember to hold L2 and R2 right before you hit the invisible wall.
