[@ToxicTony15]

Lmao sometimes if the delivery is massive enough you have no choice but to take the risk and yolo your truck through. I can’t figure out any other faster way to do any of the 800 plus kg deliveries without using a truck. I don’t even know if there is. Yea you could use floating carriers but it’s not nearly as fast traversal wise since you still have to walk. Also even then the more cargo you put on your carriers the slower they make you.

[@AgeofJP]

for the forest zipline I found a way much more efficient...from the zipline path from the distribution center to port knot I only needed three ziplines to connect the wind farm. the first one should be on the high edged rock on the upwards slope, the 2nd should be at the far right side at the very end of the windy pass (on a slightly elevated rock section right before it drops down into the forrest), if you placed the 1st on the very top of the rock then there's exactly one point on that rock where it can connect. The third one is right in the middle in front of the wind farm and you must simply look around a little to find a place where the zipline turns blue. The 2nd zipline must be lvl2 as the third one is 343m away and you should level it up before placing the third or you won't see the blue line. I'm really proud in my zipline network(s) in general but this particular one I'm pretty sure is literally as efficient as can be

[@superlimpiter1135]

[@rich925cal1]

it’s crazy how satisfying it is to figure out the damn ziplines.. only reason I stopped cause it got to be annoying all the destruction that occurs naturally by timefall when you fast travel/sleep/etc

[@TakaokiKaimi]

I have bad luck with making gold vehicles. Literally every time I do, I either fail a jump over deep water with the trike or, and this one still haunts me, manage to stand a truck perfectly vertical on it's front with no way to right it. Didn't dismantle it either because I wanted everyone to see how BS it was.

This game is a masterpiece in story telling and gameplay, a 10/10, within moments it become one of my favourite games of all time, it’s so original and amazing.

[@bdbgh]

I had a zipline going from the front of the wind farm to the top if the opposite hill, kinda hard to set up but it's doable, there's a small line of sight with the maximum zipline lvl 2 distance in between the trees

[@hlw2499]

I'm doing the 5 stars of every shelter, and well, i ended up creating a zipline network going to every shelter of the big map. Fun gameplay, press square, accept quest, go to zip line, press cross 10 to 40 times, sometimes press left or right, listen the NPC telling you "WOW, must have been hard to carry all of this"... yeah ...

[@keithe5165]

There is something addictive about it though. I've heard people referring to the gameplay loop as 'meditative' which I have to agree with. Although, i'm a long time gamer, i tend to lean more towards the casual side but i'm currently on the home stretch for the Platinum. I love 'grindy' type games like this where you can just throw the game on every once in a while and just zone out for a few hours. There's definitely a cerebral aspect to all the gear, crafting, upgrading, deciding what and what not bring on your hike, cargo management, etc. I also love the Japanese take on the 'Lovecraftian' horror elements as well. Overall happy with the game/experience and it's pretty much what expected from Kojima.

[@asolo4169]

@@keithe5165 I'm going for the platinum as well. It's so much in the games world tht can easly be missed with one play through, so I'm glad that I'm a platinum junky. I found some pretty cool things looking for the collectables. I love how Sam's life is secondary to the cargo. It's such a different experience fighting mules and BT's with and without cargo. Traversing is even wreckless or experimemtal without cargo. I also like tht the game doesn't advocate for murder being the first option, and that there are severe consequences for it. It feels true to the story and life itself.

[@xXN0cturnXx]

i think slippery sam is one of the things that destroyed the game for me. my impression was of a threat being there, everywhere also in connection with the bad weather. so you probs have to hide and make a campside at some point...maybe do some survival stuff like drink and eat. then get on with your journey and make ur way through the rough terrain. i really did not like the fixed BT-Areas besides some areas where it def makes sense like bigger cities. having to look for a way between points the very first time is actually the coolest part for me. i can see how you want to establish new roads, bridges and so on but i somehow liked more the exploration part here. also being connected to the multiplayer just destroyed everything. as soon as i connected a location, everything (trash) popped up everywhere and i missed being alone and have to figure out a way to get to the destination. as a third thing they added this bs-bossfights, this influencer stuff and just basic back and forth cargo transportation. idk i expected something totally different. the idea itself is awesome and still very cool in my opinion but i didnt like how it was executed unfortunately.

[@creedrichards137]

I have to admit that sounds interesting, and maybe a game+ or mod could make that possible, but it would have to make NPC porters more wise to the ways of these new BTs

The one showed here just feels like wasted time when you can just easily stealth kill them way faster then that. Honestly I doubt there is any one way Kojima intended for people to deal with BT’s. He’s very much the type of video game creator that wants the player to experiment in any way they can.
