So far I’m on my longest run yet, I’ve been playing it safe, and avoiding fights as much as I can.

Currently I have a base in Rosewood, in one of the houses behind the fire station. It’s all boarded up, and I’ve build up a good supply of canned food, tools and all sorts of guns.

I also have my generator ready to go for when the power goes. Water has already stopped running, I have two water coolers in my base, about 20 water bottles, and 5 rain collector crates outside. I started working on building a little shack to get clean water, but need to level up carpentry to level 6 in order to build stairs and finish the roof.

But what should I be focusing on next? I haven’t done any metalworking yet. Haven’t started with farming, and have no way of securing meat once my supply runs out.

I do have a nice firetruck, with 4 full canisters of gas. Ideally I want to build up some more gas, but have been struggling to find more canisters.

    I’m pretty sure I selected the “apocalypse” option, so I’m sure it’s going to be brutal. I’ll need to explore the school area again to find all the books for farming and trapping. And set up more water collecting barrels, just in case.

    I’ve already restarted like 20 times because I kept dying in the first few days. So definitely focused on more stealth and securing my base.

      Don’t worry, that doesn’t change, lol. Got 200h or so and just today I lost two characters who were well on their way to long term survival because I overestimated my chances. Finally got one to a good place by slowing down and clearing house by house.
