Reblaster 2006 scariest moment for me was being bumped off my fully loaded up mega raft I’ve spent a week building, with it sailing off leaving me frantically paddling behind it watching it grow smaller and smaller in the distance. You can’t understand my relief of two things - not getting mauled out there or for the 10 mins it took for me to swim to the next island, and second was to find said raft beached on that same island! Man it’s like playing Alien Isolation all over again!
missunderstood I had the same thing happen to me. I learned an important safety tip. Make sure you never put up a sail unless you already are connected to the rudder. If your raft gets away from you and doesn’t hit an island, it will disappear and you cannot get it back. I had my raft get away from me when I accidentally put the sail up while trying to climb back on the raft with a Marlin. The raft took off towards an island and I started swimming towards the island. On the long swim with my Marlin, I got attacked by a Tiger Shark and had to fend it off with the Marlin’s bill. I wish I would have thought to record that sequence. It was funny but frightening at the same time.
That's funny that getting into the water protects you from the sun. I grew up close to a beach in Florida and I burn at the mere sight of the sun it seems like, I know from experience that getting in the water will make your ass fry twice as fast 😂
YES!!! I am a fairly experienced gamer and this game has made me lose my sh** a lot! I have finally gotten a little better after I let go of my pride and looked up how to's on RU-vid. Lol!
@@missvqb did you already light a fire? I ran into that issue as well and realized there's a white circle around the fire symbol when it's been lit. When all of the white is gone, all of the fuel has been used up and you'll need to build another fire.
Just played this game for the first time today. Got started by jumping out of the dingy and leaving it and the paddle to float away. Didn’t know I could pull it to the shore, let alone use the damn thing. Thank you for this video!
Thank you. Made it 11 days not knowing you have to feed the water still palm fronds. I thought it was just to catch rain (which rarely came). Time to restart!
What ive been doing is keeping crates and whenever I need supplies I take five of my crates so its 15 more extra slots and I come back home but a but load of loot
Æ AC-130 GÖŁDĘN The first thing I build on an island is the water still. In fact I usually bring the items I need to craft the water still with me to the island. On my base island I have 4-6 water stills to I can grow pipi plants for antidotes, potatoes for fuel etc. I like to build a meat smoker 2nd since smoked meat never goes bad. When I leave an island, I try to leave at least one large meat (from a shark) on the smoker so I will have something to eat when I return to the island.
New to the game and have started the game about 5 times due to early mistakes being made and here’s what I found… (Besides the obvious making a Water Still, Camp Fire and Save Point) 1) Find LEATHER asap and make a Crude Hoe for planting “Yucca Fruit”. 4x sticks and 1x lashing to make a farming plot. Yucca plants give you fibres to make cloth, lashings (needed for most things) AND WATER! Yes… Fibrous Leaves from the Yucca can be used to fill your Water Still. The fibres generated will help you make those “Lashing Heavy” structures like a cloth and leather makers. Leather being massively important for those advanced weapons and tools. Doing this allows me to have the following within 2 days: Tanning Rack, Cloth Maker, Refined weapons and tools. Clay Oven and Brick maker.
You can break down those cargo containers to use in the structures you build, that's what they are for, of course you don't have to use them, but you can. If you check your Crafting Menu under Buildings, you should see options for Cargo Container Foundation, Cargo Container Wall, etc. At least those options appear in the PC version of the game.
I know some people are having a hard time crafting and figuring out what buttons on the controller to use. I've had quite a few people asking me. You're really good at informational videos so maybe you could make a video with a button tutorial. So that way they can physically see things being crafted, harvested, pinned etc.......
I was thinking it would be fun to do a co-op survival w/ a friend. It's a pity they didn't think of that. PvP i guess would be okay, but it kind of ruins the nature of the game, but I guess it would keep things interesting worrying about competition.
@@TheProphegy You must build a smoker. You might have to level up a bit in order to build it. Also, save a tarp, because it requires one to build it. You can stack up to 5 meats on it and it stays cooked and never spoils (just make sure you don't put spoiled meat on it). A great item to have since you can quickly cook and eat multiple food items and not go hungry.
Haha I've made it a thing to jump on the bushes and look down as I walk along sometimes find young palm trees also a pain to pick those fiber leaves up in the bush.
You can make a 3x3 raft and in the middle do not put flooring and you can lay 5 containers in the middle. 4 flat and 1 up right to carry more. You can go bigger but limit the width to 3 for turning purposes. Prolly best not to go over 5 in length
I asked for this game for Christmas for my sister and after playing it for hours I did find water to be an annoying thing but this video has shown me what I need to do.
Thanks. Downloaded this a few days ago and couldn't really do much as not a crafting/survival gamer. Your video helped alot and was easy to understand. Nice one lad
If you plan on moving palm leaves, dont break the palm bunch thing from the top of the tree cause you can carry 4 of those in one spot (each thing is worth 5 palm leaves) superr easy to save space that way :D at least on the pc version, not too sure of ps4 tho.
True the big containers have nothing in them but they are also a great thing to go inside and get your spp filled faster than going under water so they do serve a good purpose and imagine being inside of one during a store I will try that lol
you may find some little sharks in the shallow area they won’t hurt you “Me Goes to the shipwreck got absolutely destroyed by a hammer head shark and 3 goblin sharks”
If you don't have any water. And only 2 coconut. En need of water. Drink the 2 coconuts make an pile. And you can drink again the same coconuts. Cheers
I recently bought both the forest and this game. Both are equally fun in their own ways but I find stranded deep more difficult and complex to figure out. I found this video helpful especially with the poison plants
@Jade PG I figured out what the containers do. Go in them to get faster spf instead of going under the water you can just sit in the water in the container and not have to worry about breathing lol
Went into the game where I last saved and of my 9 wooden crates I saved with next to my fire only 3 spawned and I know 100% I saved the game with 9 crates cause they were next to my hut and fire even counted them when I saved and now all my materials are gone
This is a great game that has been in constant development and getting updates very regularly also. I love the map building feature. You can also get player buit maps but they need to place it in a proper Steam workshop.
Unplayable for me as they failed to include the option to invert aim, wish I had known before downloading it.. apparently they are going to fix it asap.
@@Jade-PG Agreed!! But it grows each day, trees just stay dead :(. I like the look of the trees on my home island and try to keep them if I can! Great video though, I liked it!
Idk how you can even play this game when I keep dying of dehydration within the first two days and I can't level up fast enough to make the water still. My character is ALWAYS thirsty and I can't keep it hydrated.
Why does my watch say “ islands explored: 2” right at the beginning of the game when clearly I haven’t explored any island yet? I couldn’t understand if it said 1 since you start on an island but I don’t get why it says 2.
