Chapter 1: The F!!K Did I Just Do?
Well WASD is a Thing. We Know Of Left Click and Righty....

Explore and Check out the Police Station . This is an Auto Save for your EXP.

Yes thats right... You Lose 50% of your EXP gained since your Last Visit

"Hey good lookin, you come here often ?"

You Start with a Pistol , some Ammo, and a 2x4,(a piece of wood you threaten your teenage daughters new boyfriend with). not the #8..

Since you move forward whilst swinging said former tree limb around, make sure you promptly hold "S" after each swing as to avoid any retort.

INCOMING DAMAGE is a pain to deal with at first, you will need bait and run tactics at first until ammo and healling items become fairly easy to acquire.

Save your Ammo and Gun for Oh ♥♥♥♥ momemts as well as Specials(Burning ones etc...)
I mean yah, shoot, dont worry about getting hit... until the NOISE RADIUS of 50M
starts attracting more hostiles.

Hostiles can walk through doors.... They will Crawl after you. The philosphy I embrace whole heartedly here is Go for the head while They are standing, and when they hit the ground.
Make sure they are dead before you take your eyes off 'em, also aim a little up and to the right, trust me, you'll get that pearly white smile in no time.

Yellow Boarders... A.K.A. Loot that ♥♥♥♥♥. Seriously, take everything, you can scrap it for easy / early cash, or try and sell it for decent cash. All done at the trader in the police station "yay autosave"

" Homer: Aw, twenty dollars! I wanted a peanut.

Homer's Brain: Twenty dollars can buy many peanuts!

Homer: Explain how!

Homer's Brain: Money can be exchanged for goods and services.

Homer: Woohoo!
"

Here Come The Cheap Shotties and Rifles... which have scopes but no scope zoom....Yet?
Also medical supplies as well. since this seems to be the only way to heal right now.


Quests and Skills - Talk to people, they will tell you to do ♥♥♥♥ for a few peanuts.

Abandon some logic on this one, early game setup seems like it will be key.

Sprinting - No.
You move faster walking than the enemie scraggling towards you. You quickly doing a 180, ( remember I said hit S after a swing ) and continuing to walk in that direction is a sure fire way to out run anything that you will come across at this point in the game.

Where as Looter, Sneaking , Dodging. Yes.

The extra loot, More PEANUTS
Sneaking into a room ( hold ctrl be default ), I've crawled over enmies that were laying in ambush, without them realizing it and also the surprise damage is quite useful when you 4 heads and not 0, like you where hoping for in that broom closet.
Dodging is a great for those Popular moments of "That was a mistake" among new players, so hold space bar to quickly but a few paces between you and whatever has decided it wants to tickle your organs with its Tongue Today...... Internal Organs........becasue the external ones would actually be quite .......Moving along then.

I should probably make that a pro con section later.... whit full skill details...

I'll try to keep updating, add, and refine as I go. Hoped this helped.

Funny and good guide

Ahh, Apologies for this misunderstanding, Sprinting Was / Should still be a skill along with Looter, Sneaking and Dodging ( renamed to quick reflexes i think ). I just meant not to take Sprinting as one of your first few skill choices, as it does not seem to be as effective as other skills.

You need to skill / spec into Sprinting - Tyrone Blackscript - Just like Looter, Sneaking and Dodge.

Not an exploit, Clanzzy Von Euphoria - At Close - to semi-medium range the targeting / crosshairs are a little off center, so to compensate I would have to aim up and to the right a bit. example would be aiming at the chin and hitting them on the collar bone.

Why aim upper right of the head? Is there some bug that's getting exploited there?

Not a new player, but I lol'd at this guide. It is also very good for any new players starting out. I hope the chapters after chapter 1 are as good as this one.
