Testing a “game changing” new blueprint in Sons of the Forest (1.0 update) 

Comment any tips/tricks/hacks you want us to test in our next playthrough! Upvote your favorites so we see them at the top 😀🙌

Imagine committing turtle genocide in order to collect water.....only to walk around the entire time with a completely empty thirst meter. For the love of God Evan, drink some water!!

Make Kevlin a little base camp! And everyone else who agrees please like this so they can see this!! He needs a home! Poor lil guy just standing there on the beach staring and scratching his head at you guys lol

Buckle up! Lots of tips with no spoilers! I have 150 hours in the game since the full release, here's all the best tea. Don't worry about that weird blueprint just yet, you'll need another item to make it work, and even then the function is really weird and obscure (several of the blueprints are weird in function like this... ignore those for now) If you place a radio with Legatha nearby, she will dance to the music now and then. The game is gigantic, take your time and explore every inch If you make jam with berries it keeps you warm, hopefully you have some or can gather loads ready for next winter. You need a cooking pot with water, 5 blueberries 5 salmonberries and 5 twinberries I think. The winter jacket is good too, or the hoodie, and carry a stick torch to keep warm too anytime you have a free hand. A fire with 2 lots of firewood in a fully enclosed room to sleep in is a must for winter, and a big bonfire outside is a big help when building outdoors, and great for kelvin. Go and stand next to it now and then (standing next to any fire will help but the bonfire lasts ages) You don't take fall damage in vehicles - including the 3d printed sled, the knight v, the glider and the golf cart. You are not immune to attacks from cannibals, mutants, demons and moose but you won't take fall damage, even from the highest cliff, long as you remain seated/vehicle equipped. Talking of vehicles, Kelvin can now get into the golf cart if you are near one and tell him to follow you and then you get in. He needs to ride next to you i think so one of you might need to get on the back so Kelvin can be in a main passenger seat. Only players can perma-kill Kelvin and Legatha, not cannibals etc (sorry Katelyn!) be very careful doing heavy attacks when you can't see all around, and don't try to talk to either of them when you are carrying logs or stones as it will injure them pretty badly. You can store severed heads, legs and arms as effigies on sticks and they don't go rotten, then you can make Greg stew whenever needed. The flying helicopters don't do anything, it's just that guy at the beginning who hits you keeping an eye on you. Please eat and drink enough regularly to keep your stamina meter fuller and stop those awful breathing noises, it also helps increase your strength levels overall which means your health lasts longer in battles before you die and you can run for longer (keeping warm also helps if winter or up the mountain) Some of the caves are absolutely huge and confusing and you get turned around. Take plenty of sticks, cloth and small rocks into caves with you - sometimes you can place wall torches for better light, and you can leave small rocks around as a breadcrumb trail if you keep getting turned around. If something seems like a dead end but there is water, you'll probably need to dive with the re-breather. If you don't have any materials with you, sometimes you can just leave the blueprint for say a wall torch and it serves as a marker. Cream of mushroom soup and crouching helps with stealth, great in caves for sneaking past some mutants (you don't always need to kill each enemy) and for hunting deer and moose. Leaf armour is for hunting stealth. You don't need to store duct tape and cloth on shelves, you can carry more than you'll ever use (something silly like 1000) however its good to store light bulbs, hides, rope and c4 (and anything limited number in inventory) on shelves... and place any solar panels and batteries (even if not connected to anything) so you can pick up more The cross only works on demons, it burns them and is the most effective thing against them. But afaik you haven't met those yet in game (they walk on all fours, their limbs are kinda pointy and they do a scorpion type motion attack with their back legs) guns etc eventually kill them too but the cross is great. Some of the mutants also go on all fours but their limbs aren't pointy and they don't do the stinger kick. Leaf traps are to set on fire, eg lay a load of them down outside your base (if you do one inland at any point) in a wide and long line, then throw a molotov and all of them will catch on fire - can be very useful Any of the large cannibals that you can't carry to a fire, you can still burn for bones by hitting their bodies with a lit torch You can drive the Knight V over that turtle shell glider launcher you made and it basically sends you to orbit (just be sure to remain seated unless you equip the glider mid air!) any questions about anything specific feel free to ask! Love, lolapolabear (on twitch)

Tips and tricks. You technically don’t need jump towers. When using the launch platform wait to pull out the glider when you are at the top of the launch/mid air. Doing so will make you go higher in the air without the resistance of the glider. When flying, dive down to gain speed then pull up at a 45 degree angle until you are about to stall out. Repeat this process and go as high as you want. You can even make it over the mountain. Cheers.

in the future if you accidentally lose a companion you can quite easily go into the game files and change to code to revive them :) I had to teach myself how after I accidentally killed poor Kelvin xD you can also make it so they are immortal, as well as spawning a hundred kelvins hahaha

To be fair to Katelyn, 12 gauge shotgun silencers do exist in the really real world….

That segment with Katelyn taping her nose shut was really entertaining 👌❤😂

Next time you are at a 3D printer you should print tech mesh, then see what you can make with it in your inventory. It’s pretty cool. And I feel like we really missed an opportunity to call the other towers yeetus repeatus.

3:24:48 I cannot get “neenage teutan needleteedle” out of my head now 😭

1: Until your strength is 100 chop trees instead of using the chainsaw. Chopping trees is the primary way of gaining strength and more strength = more health and melee damage. 2: Your launch tower on the beach can get you anywhere on the island without additional towers if you master the climbing technique with the glider. The attitude gauge is key in mastering the glider in general. While flying normal, ie not banking, landing, or climbing, make sure the dot on the gauge is in the circle. When you want to climb pitch all the way down till the circle hits the limit of the gauge then immediately pitch all the way up till the circle hits the opposite limit. You don’t need to delay to gain speed. The initial pitch down will get you enough. When you reach the limit pitching up hold there and keep an eye on the tree line/horizon. You will see yourself gaining altitude. Don’t worry about stalling out, as long as you are gaining height you’ll be fine. When the rate at which you are gaining slows to almost a stop reorient the glider to neutral. Repeat until you are as high as you need to be.

2:28:17 🎶In the legs of the cannibals, fly away from here From this dark, cold bunker room And the mutants you kill You were pulled from the wreckage Near your silent friend Kelvin You're in the mouthchest of a mutant, May you find some Timmy here.🎶

I know it was difficult to continue after the Legatha set back but I am so happy that you continued and made the structures even more amazing😊. I am struggling with my mental health at the moment and your fun streams are helpful in getting me through it. Thank you for all the content you make because it’s so wholesome and inspiring. ❤

NPC's can NOT kill Kelvin or Virginia. Pro Gamers: There is a save icon right next to the sleep icon. It doesn't cost me anything to click on it. Should I save the game? Nah...

"Smells like tape"😂

Wanna get ultimate height with the glider launcher? Ride a Knight-V over it. It boosts you almost as high as the snowy mountain! Beware, you might glitch through the map when you land, but if you have the glider on a hotkey you can equip it while you’re in the air. You do seem to lose the Knight-V when doing this though.

You can save when ever you like as long as you have a silver tarp and a stick, you can place it almost anywhere and save as you please, i have even had it work in caves but that could have changed after the update.

The Turtle Tower Launcher is 4 turtle shells form dead turtles that died of “Natural Causes” and some “VERY” good architecture get yours today for 29.99

🎵 This is my murder song, killing a turtle song, chop up his body song… 🎶

A name for the tower could be The Glider Provider

You guys make me wanna replay the whole game! Also Katelyn looks so cute in the pigtails! ❤

Top 10 most tragic anime deaths: Legatha's murder.

Does the launcher work on enemies? Can you build a fence of launchers around your base?

20:00 so you guys needed the heart rate monitors this time 😂 Edit- 2:46:00 omg you needed them for Evan’s sake 😮😢

Follow gps and find missing campsites with soldiers they have some fun stuff to play with

And here I am compulsively saving _so_ often. I save several times through caves as well

this stream was absolute chaos and i loved every second of it

You could of just respawned Virginia aka Legatha. 😂. Type cheatstick on the keyboard. Then hit F1. Then type Addcharacter Virgina Then hit enter.

Y'all are so wholesome me and my mom love watching you! We named a piece of cheese on our roof kevin, after the kevins. 🧀🧀🧀🧀

Old Man Evan was so funny 🤣I felt so bad when Legatha slipped and fell to her demise! Don't give up guys!

You can go over the mountain with the glider but you have to gain altitude a few times to get high enough. Funny thing about the glider is that it doesn't follow normal physics, so you can get infinite altitude. If you try it with just one time driving down for speed then going up it will go slow but you can do it several times in a row to maintain a decent speed

Omg I felt that pain! Thank you for choosing Legatha over all the progress you made. Lol! Oof.

The Virgina "Legetha" Puffton Semi-Memorial Yeeting Pad

As Katelyn is so handy with that axe, can you test the armour types? Really should be using flesh armour so you don’t have to be respawning or reviving so often. As funny as it is, it’s time to be OP.

If you look at slow-mo of arrow flights, they flex a ton, they need to be pretty flexible, I think resin would be too stiff for an arrow shaft

Check the notepad again to get kelvin to gather Stone it should be there its there for other players if its not there for u then its a issue with ur game stone isnt crazy important but stone floors look nice lol

Place the turtle launcher on the very top of the mountain and then when you use it, you will be able to have a really awesome flight and an amazing view of the entire island!!

Yeetus and shellipad are great names. I prefer kharmapult 🎵 In the arms of the angel…

Use one of the golf carts on the launcher 🚗✈️

Use wall torches in caves to mark your way through & not confuse your directions easier

Once you learn not to use the mouse on the one wheel, and stick to the paths, they are really good.

I ride electric unicycles so I was excited when they added it in during early access but I def think it could have been handled better control wise. Although like riding one in real life you get used to it eventually and it becomes invaluable in getting around the map

Tip if you make the launchers throughout the map make a vary small basic base (some walls, shelves and storage) so you have some supply caches around. Then when you're on a mission about to go somewhere where there is lots of supplies, then you can drop some stuff off without going all the way home.

You all gotta play Resident Evil Village!! Loving these SotF uncuts though!!

legatha out here looking like sam porter bridges

I just wanna see kevin get a path to the base :(

I love these streams!! Keep doing them!!

Use the launch pad as defence from enemies by placing 3-4 along the shore

i’m crying at evan on the floor and his legs just swinging around 😂😂😂😭😭😭

Imagine Kelvin walking to the launcher like, "i wanna fly to“. Rip poor Kalvin.

Evan laughing at Kaitlyn for wanting to put a "silencer" (suppressor) on a shotgun when thos literally exist in real life. Edit: Evan got informed by chat those exist right after I posted this lol. Still his condescension and face stroke still irks me.

42:30 😂

Tower Name: One eyed, one horned, flying, purple people yeeter!

Evan: Let me show you how to fly this... crashes. Katelyn: Nah, I'm good. See you later

1:43:08 Katelyn: "Ooo, a big fish jumped!" Evan: "Like a whale? Or a dolphin?" Me to my brain: "Don't mention that those are both mammals!" My brain to me: "It is already done." Also, you could definitely hear Legatha's death groan..

It’s so comical seeing Evan’s legs pop up when he lets himself fall🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This stream, Katelyn became an axe murderer "on accident" 🤣

So exited for this video!!! 💚

you can pump your gliders a little too...gain speed by falling then tilting back up you can basically fly forever

Katelyn: "Watch out for Legatha, you were chopping in her direction" Katelyn: *literally chops Legatha*

1:07:35 But also, shaped effects wiith resin with LEDs on the tips. Like flames for the full fire arrow.

19:46 I was looking forward to that moment and I knew it would happen.

Make a zip line that goes from the forest strait to the base instead of to the beach then the base

E & K forever hungry and thirsty 😭 Love you guys though. ❤️

The arrows would be way too heavy in resin to actually use unfortunately but i still want to see them

Honestly best stream I've ever watched

The regular cross, which is/was found in a decaying hand, is used to repel demons found in a lava cave. I couldn't find what the cross from the blueprint is used for. I did find something about where to find the different blueprints.

I love your videos!!!

Nice gameplay you guys 🙂

Y'all should've had your heart rate monitors on when ***SPOILER BELOW FOR PEOPLE READING COMMENTS*** legatha died.

Fun fact. I believe only a "player" can kill your friendly npcs. So...

Right when Evan killed the deer it started pouring rain. YOU KILLED BAMBI'S MOTHER!!

this game is great thank you for playing games i am too scared to play🤣

There are a TON of new blueprints in the game and a TON more to do if you haven't checked it out already. The game is very different and much more filled in. You'd have a ton of fun with it

You have to make the deer bed. It’s your magnus opus !

I'm just picturing Evan letting out a rage scream as soon as the cameras turned off hahaha poor guy! I understand, I lost an entire Minecraft world once AND it was my fault.

19:45.... You're welcome lol. lmaooooooo i watched this so many times lmfao!!!!!!

Ohhh I felt so bad for Katelyn

Can’t hide the disappointment at not having the continuous play through of the game 😓

Do you guys not know how to gain elevation with the glider? You can take off from the beach and end up on the tallest mountain without any other help. All you have to do is point down, gain speed, and then point up gaining elevation until you run out of energy, at which point you point down again to regain energy, rinse and repeat. With some practice and some creative zig zagging up the hill you can go as far up as you want. Also, There are often updrafts next to steep cliffs

i think katelyn murdering legetha is a plot twist i wasnt expecting

It would be fun as a stream to find a simple and short game to speed run and go against eachother.

Haven't watched the whole video. But you can give Virginia your pistol and shotgun. They respawn at the same places you found them

Katelyn would probably survive combat better if she doesn’t always move closer to bad boys when she uses range weapons

the yeeter skeeter is the adult friendly helter skelter

On the topic of your arrow ideas, I just really want U guys to make sure U don't end up with a bunch of resin shards stuck in your head 😭 I do archery myself, and personally I wouldn't want to fire a resin arrow, because I would be too worried about it exploding in my face as I release it. The majority of arrows people use are wood or carbon fibre so yeah that carbon fibre shaft is a good idea, however, the shaft has to be constructed in a specific way including a hollow centre and a few other design constraints. This is important because the arrow needs to flex and bend when the force from the bow is released into it, if it is too rigid it will instead shatter and explode. I have heard too many horror stories of people trying to make their own arrows out of dowls or sticks and having them fail when fired, so I just wana make sure Ur both being really careful and taking the safety concerns into consideration if you plan on firing them yourselff!

Berserker Katelyn is a menace

Heard you say mods stopped working. Depends where you were using mods. They work for a site called sons of the forest mods. They even have a mod to censor female parts. It's great for streamers. Endnight even implemented some of their mods in a patch.

hey maybe for the next stream, u could make the special suit from the first bunker the one that takes a lot of resin

resin arrows pvc bow would be pretty cool

You guys should change Katelyn’s game name to KatelynandEven

Could you be any more adorable? OMG lol thanks for the laugh! I needed it. ❤😊

41:02 what if u try shot at helihopter...

Google says follow the helicopter!!! 🚁

Didn't need any of those towers, you can gain infinite altitude in the glider

Like Evan I had to step away and then come back.

Just like IRL Evan always forgets to drink

No tips and tricks from me, I prefer to watch y’all play games over playing them myself! Exited to see what happens next

I love Katelyn being interesting when the internet went out 😅

I mean… Evan DID say that Katelyn chops things with her axe 34 minutes into the video…
