The Forever Winter, My 10 Tips For Early Game

[@leviwalker7385]

Blows my mind that the reveiws on steam are mixed.... the ONLYZ reason this game is here in this state is cause the community wantted it and nie they complain that its not in a good state ooofff!! Some fucking people man!!! I personally love it and cant wait for it to develop more. Its a light in the see of dsrkness lately

[@machinech183]

Important to remember that the actual community that did want it are busy playing and are happy for the most part. The complainers are the casuals and trend chasers that saw some hype and jumped on the game without thinking. This game is specifically designed to punish those that don't think with poor impulse control. Their egos don't handle that well. Bad reviews have become the kiddies digital version of a temper tantrum. Some have some legit criticisms but the vast majority are just ignorable. The devs have some epic games cash in their pockets so I wouldn't worry about the whiny doom and gloomers just yet. Lets see where we are in a week or better a month.

@@machinech183 🤟💀🤟

[@NakedAvanger]

​@@machinech183I just hope the devs dont give in to the whiny fk heads.

[@ArheIy]

​​​​@@machinech183to be fair, people are complaining about right things: optimization is bad, AI is janky, camera movement is weird, water system needs to be overhauled because rn it's too easy to get and too unfair to lose. These all are legitimate reasons to be upset. On the other hand, the reason WHY the game is as it is explains and justifies everything, especially considering that such early access has already helped to pinpoint some faults. Idk, people really didn't know sh*t about the game and thought that it's a completed project in spite of of *BLAZING* script "EA" on the main page and devs themselves saying that they put the game on steam just because fans wanted that? That's a complicated situation. Devs are awesome, but handling this dumpster fire will definetly take some effort that could as well be spent on the development, which will consequently lead to other community problems. Let's just hope that the studio will manage to get through this rough phase unharmed and do what we can to help them.

[@ThePartisan13]

​@@ArheIyAll things that were to be expected in an alpha.

[@spaceben11]

1. Don't actively engage 2. Don't use the Surplus rifle unless you're completely broke 3. Water isn't hard to find - focus on money and quests 4. Get lockboxes (have 14k credits) [every weapon adds a new one to buy at the shop] 5. Lure enemies away with sound 6. Don't forget about silencers 7. Level up your favorite weapons 8. Prestige characters ASAP (+health +maybe more speed) 9. Upgrade your rig (backpack) large storage bin adds 2x space 10. Use 'loot all' at the beginning and gun it for the exit

[@BouXIII]

11. Best Allround Rifle is the RPK. Super Cheap, Trader lvl 2, 200DMG, 40 Round Mag. 12. If you Pick up destroyed weapons and extract, then pout them back on your rig for the next mission and extract with them they will be repaired and usable. Even Grenade Launchers/Anti Material Rifles etc. 1 Grenade Launcher is worth 100k 13. IEDs are your friends, they are dirt cheap and super effective in distracting/stopping enemies from following you and giving you a few extra seconds to escape. They can also be used to protect a Flank if you want to engage a Target like a Miniboss. 14. Stay away from the ScarH. 15. a leveled up weapons becomes significantly more precise after ~lvl20 16. look forward to late game. 17. Shaman is better Than Scav Girl. / Bagman is the Tankiest and slowest that can later on easily kill small mechs and tanks. 18. Beware of the Current Scope Alignment Bug, Currently many weapons scopes and characters display the scope wrong, it is not centered. Look through your scope and hit the Mark-Button to see where the Actual Center is. This also changes depending if you are crouched or standing upright. 19. Use the Mark Button to identify enemies in order to find out which faction they are.

[@RozKil]

For anyone who's having issues with frames right now in the EA that's just released on steam i did too on the earlier build, go into graphics settings and find RESOLUTION SCALE, i turned that down to half and it worked for me so you could try doing that too and see if it helps you Another one that i got off the discord that helps people, turn on vsync for the game and cap the frame rate (in my case it's capped to 60 fps, something i always do by default now for every game i play), it seems if you have it on unlimited frames it actually makes the frame rate worse for some reason

[@maitrenibyat5225]

Thanks brotherrrrrrrrrrr

[@PartTimePirate]

Thanks man

[@OgOssman]

Its weird it was like only 10 to 20% using gpu cpu. But it's choppy, the intro anyways,

[@pRaX85815]

Having the Frame Cap set to unlimitech actually caps the FPS to 62. If you want more, you gotta set it to 120. Personally I capped my FPS to 75 via driver (due to 144hz Gsync'd display). I'm on a I9-9900K, RTX 3080, 16GB of RAM and only SSDs and based on the requirements, I expected to get 30-40 fps if I'm lucky. Turned out those fears were wrong. I'm playing at my native 1440p resolution, resolution scale is native/off and most setting are on ultra with some very few exceptions being on medium and high instead. On every single map I'm framecapped no matter how much carnage is going on. It was a huge surprise and relief. There are loading stutters though at the start of a map sometimes and when AI spawns. But it's pretty rare. I saw more stutters in most footage of the beta builds. They definitely worked on optimization since then.

[@OneBiasedOpinion]

Oddly enough, I cannot interact with the resolution scaling slider. It's greyed out for me.

[@Appetizer76]

Might be worth adding more detail to that tip to really get it through people's heads. "You are the weakest thing on this battlefield. You're basically the opposite of a shooter protagonist."

[@BergRD]

Well done video. Simple, to the point, and poignant. Got home from 12h shift, purchased, installed, and blew through the first 3 missions without incident. Didn't look for action, didn't force action, looted when I could/wanted, and made it through just fine. Got caught once and fired upon and ran out of LOS. Lost them to other attackers attacking my attackers. Healed, went to exfil. Got off to read more about how it sucks. i9 9900K, 3080Ti, runs just fine and it's NOT EFT, COD, etc. You *must* remap your neurons to do things differently and I feel this is the core point of this game; learn something new. Thanks mate!

[@Joe-ti7qd]

Make sure to keep your water up! It depletes in real time even when you aren't playing and you lose everything

[@BergRD]

@@Joe-ti7qd Yep. Knew this going in and doesn't bother me. Got 2 days of water (1 container) on 2 of the 3 runs.

[@RazzleTheRed1]

Once you beat the initial 3 or 4 quests, you get access to a lot of quests. They seem to be repeatable and every single one gives you water, I've played about 10 hours total and I'm at 25 days worth of water. Just pick out the easy quests/ones you know you can do and get them done as you play.

[@OneBiasedOpinion]

This helps immensely. Thank you. I've been getting whacked on Ashen Mesa doing the exact opposite of almost all of these tips, and most of it was because I did NOT know how I was supposed to be responding to threats and loot in the early game.

[@dwcolorado8246]

Subscribed. No BS, straight to the point tips! I appreciate ya. I played the game for 5 hours after purchase with little issues. Keep it up.

[@TheBullterrierFan]

I'm playing from yesterday and I'm shocked that I automatically implied all the tips before I saw this video. It was just a matter of conclusion (from fails) and re-think of what I've just done. Thanks bro, I know now that I'm on the right course.

[@pRaX85815]

It took me 5 minutes to git gud. After 3 hours of play I was already up to 21 days of water with a couple more barrels in the stash and prestiged my character of choice 3 times. Countless hours in various games that Forever Winter takes inspirations from, helped me transition into it lightning quick. I'm enjoying it alot and can't wait for it to grow. My biggest issue with the game is the clearly broken AI spawns. I'm also not a fan of the character progression and their talent trees. I hope the latter gets a rework. So much stuff there is just... questionable.

[@EnriquePage]

Thank you so much for the tips! (A minor detail, the gunshots in your video were so much louder than your voice)

[@clownofwar]

Amen thats how guns should sound.

[@AceOfScavs]

Really enjoying it so far. Its basically everything I expected and more. Thanks for the tips.

[@clownofwar]

Problem with the loot all is that you can loot a HK triggered item, some of these are the neural interface chip, advanced toolkit, and weapons parts. Carefull looting these they can and will spawn a HK squad and they will not relent untill you are dead.

[@HandsFreeProductions]

Then again, you may have a question to kill HKs and with a co-ordinated team and a few 20mm cannons, you can get it

[@clownofwar]

@@HandsFreeProductions i try to avoid HK squads if i can help it tend to loot high risk items at the end of the raid and then bombrush for exfil, so yeah you could fight them but its not required and risky.

Glad to hear this. A lot of newer games are really making the Skylake show its age. My main rig is also a 6700k, with half your RAM, and a 1080ti. Hopefully it should be fine. If not, my laptop has a 10700F w/ 2070s mobile that should do the trick.

[@lazyholl0w831]

Wow! Ty for the reference point! I'll see how my ryzen 5 and 3060 wil do.

[@TheSpinkels]

One tip I guess I might add, even from only watching the gameplay, is CHECK YOUR SIX! Especially after firing a shot! Despite the targeting boxes, enemies do seem to be rather stealthy in terms of visuals (especially them cyber-zombies), so it's easy to pass by some of them without noticing. Meaning any you have missed, as soon as they hear you, are going to be up your ass in a moment's notice and you want to be ready on the trigger when they do! You even see this at 8:16 - Roz kills a bunch of zombies, goes to loot them, and only at the last moment sees two more have managed to stalk in behind him (unless of course this is just a EA spawning bug) and could very well have been jumped with no option to defend.

I have a tip! For the first couple quests (getting water and the Europan drone parts), I was able to just bring one in with me to the mission and extract and it counted progress! I did also drop it and pick it back up in the level but idk if that's required.

[@tralala8980]

Tip for looting: Sometimes there is too much loot in one spot together. If you just want a specific rifle or just the water ... aim down sight and the selection get easier. Not super easier but just easier.

[@InternetHydra]

Nice to find your videos, easily better Forever War gameplay then most people covering it (I can tell by your tone you’re aware of how baffling it’s been). Noticed a bunch of shorts are hidden, your choice or YT being YT?

[@kashada8714]

In addition to the loot all tip, you and right click to drop unidentified items which drops them on the floor but when you pick them up again you will know what they are. Helpful if you find yourself somewhere quite and in need of ammo or meds. I dont know if there is an option to identify stuff without dropping it but ive not found it.

[@Rilas711]

Keep in mind some items are traceable by the enemies because they have like a tracking device .. so I've been screwed over a few times because of this. So I'm against the Loot All tip you gave.. only loot all of you are planning on grabbing and immediately going to extraction

[@OssoKrossoFrosso]

I started a Shaman and it has Sprint Expertise skill and Skill too haul more stuff.

[@buff3dn3rf26]

My tip as a new player of a few hours is this.. When you get a weapon in a raid that's broken if you bring the broken weapon into your next raid and successfully extract with the gun it is repaired and yours to use. I stumbled on this and at the beginning of the game getting rid of that starter rifle is important. Cause it's a turd. Like the man said.

[@CTC41392]

Question: What is the most superior and actual useful Suppressor? Tired one on a AK once at that concrete area with the timed excraction, but it still alerted the entire garrison beside the Zombots.

[@kulak8548]

You didn't mention that the loot you extract with also gives you XP which is another reason to upgrade your rig early.

[@Medieval1-1]

You actually die WAY SLOWER than I thought you would in this game. I figured it was going to be more or less pretty realistic and that 1-3 shots from high caliber weapons would instantly kill you.

I bought this game a couple hours ago and have done a couple runs and I gotta say it’s tons of fun. However? I just can’t survive a single run. I’ve done I guess around 10 trying to do the starter mission and can’t pull it off. Usually there is some big mech on the extraction I can’t pull away without attracting another squad, or alternatively I sneak past it and start the extraction only to get swarmed by the robot thingies. One time there was a tank. Hopefully I will be able to get it soon, though I’m not really worried about my water running out as I have nothing to save if it does LOL

[@puenboy1]

Is it better to prestiege than to spend xp on skills?

[@SuppahTenko]

So if I understand it correctly the water decreases by 1 day for every 1 day that passes IRL? Does it decrease more while actively playing? Cause if water is not that hard to come by then it's only an issue for people that can't play often and makes it an inelegant way of pressuring people to play regularely. All while everyone that can play often basically can ignore the mechanic, when that is the group that needs extra mechanics the most to be challenged.

[@puenboy1]

1 water is 24 hours of IRL time. You can get water as quest rewards or extracting with water barrels. Every barrel is 24 hours and I assume as you upgrade your rig youll be able to extract with more water

Hunter killers arw the time system amd it is based on a number of things. Time, quality of loot and quantity of loot will summon hunter killers that will hunt you down until you exfil. Thos needs some tweaking imo but yeah you're timed.

This isn’t a typical pvp extraction game. This system still allows wiping and gives you a system that demands you to stockpile when you have the time so you don’t lose a bunch of progress. Can’t wait to play again after work

kinda confused on what the point of this game is.... is it just an extraction shooter or is there a story-based gameplay loop/possible manipulation of the tide of war?

Pretend you are a rat stay on the outside, hid where you can and only shoot if escape isn't an immediate option. Once you kill or hit something then escape is your first choice. Buy a mule early and have carry your loot. Learn the map layout.
