Leeanda Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Need my backpack and rifle before I go anywhere else.. Ash canyon is always my start on a new run.. plus I'm going to wait until someone knows where the transition zone is before I head to the airfield 😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Socks Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) I'm a more cautious than YOLO player so will definitely spend my time getting equipped first before heading out. I may end up having two parallel runs for the first time. One, a (hopefully) long personal best run making the most of new features for mid to late game enjoyment like space customisation and crafting. The second, get geared up as fast as possible then head out to explore. This run I wouldn't worry about dying in a ridiculous and epic fashion nor would I mind trying again in the same way to learn the new region. I wouldn't want to take the same risks with a more permanent attempt at survival in a long run. Either way I won't go without the technical backpack and hopefully the moose satchel... travois or not I need the maximum carry space for all the lovely shiny things I'll never need 😁 Edited October 27, 2022 by Sgt Socks 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaGnome91 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I plan to start a new run in Milton, quickly get the Satchel, head ASAP to got the Technical Backpack and go get the best possible clothing at the Summit. Considering that I should already have several plants/cured pelts/cured elm & birch saplings/etc... as well as most if not all tools in stock, then I'll head to the Airfield. Dunno the mode yet : might be Pilgrim just to be swift in the "prep" phase... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twyn1 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Pretty sure I'll do a combo of checking the new things out & getting well-equipped. Definitely will be playing on Pilgrim (which is pretty much all I play anyways - stress levels in my life are high enough, as it is 😬 ). Will probably want to have a moose satchel, but not sure I'll bother with the technical backpack (Ash Canyon is not my favorite area!) Even tho I will try not to, I will most likely be peeking at some "spoilers" since I will be waiting for the X-Box version. Would really like to see what the requirements are for making Crampons & the Travois. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Surprised "checking all visors" didn't make the list. We're very excited to bring you this update. Thank you for sharing the anticipation with us! 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeanda Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I check them anyway🙂. Old habits die hard! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for sharing the anticipation with us! I forgot about this! I was too preoccupied with being able to make a safehouse my own. To be honest I didn't even know you *could* pull down the visors til recently. Still learning after 8 years! More things to rummage about in and find stuff? Yes please 😁 @Leeanda please remind me when the time comes! You know how much like swiss cheese my memory is 🙄 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghurcb Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I'll probably choose a starting location far away from the Airfield and set out to reach it. I don't want to go there "well-equipped" as to not make the exploration too easy. But I DO want to feel like it was a long trip trying to get to the Far Territory. Now that I think about it, that probably means I'm going to check out other new features first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lamp Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Probably, once i start a new run i think the airfield would be the last thing i explore. I think it's a good idea setttling down a safehouse with resources in it before exploring new content, but i can't deny that i could go to the airfield almost instantly after getting all the important gear needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBondReturns Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I will start a new sandbox using Hadrian's Against All Odds Code...and play my game as a normal survival sandbox. In other words with great care and inquisitiveness. I'll go where the world lets me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javijungle Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Without knowing the airfield weather forecast I would at least try to have quality clothing and a sleeping bag. I will probably start the adventure into stalker so a gun will be useful for me, although I might venture without it and without the stmsSantana map 😁. Impatient to know what surprises the visors will hold 🤔so could be great idea move to maps with cars near. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jeffpeng Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Start a stalker, spawn on TWM, climb the summit, jump down, and then nothing can touch me, like I always do. Then I'm ready to go where ever and face whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arbor Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 (edited) I'll be making my custom difficulty settings harder for my new runs (fewer animals so food is harder to get, more blizzards, faster freezing, less loot, slower healing, etc) so I kinda expect to die a few times before I get stocked up enough to head to the Far Territory. Probably Ill head there once I get a bit comfortable, with decent clothes and a bow and at least one of either the technical pack or satchel. That'll give me time to enjoy the other new changes too Edit: Oh and Ill want a bearskin bedroll first too!

Pillock Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Find matches, then go exploring! I'm not going to spend hours and hours doing stuff I've done before, when there's new regions to get lost in. Might even start the game with matches for a change, and skip the panicky running-around phase so I can get going straight away. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranium Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Interloper spawn in the new area, maybe. Or random spawn & make my way there casually. I don't want to go in too safely/geared up, but I'm not sure I want to spawn there right away either. Whatever I do, I'll be avoiding spoilers until after I've at least mapped the whole place. No TLD forum/reddit for me until then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackTrysGames Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 The same thing I do every run with a new update. Pilgrim difficulty. Snow Walker, Blizzard Walker, Efficient Machine, Cold Fusion, Free Runner. Spawn AT the new location. Get the lay of the land, find any new hidden items in the region, then wipe the save and test the other features at Milton. Or maybe I'll just scope out the entrance, go on Stalker at Milton, and gradually make my way over while testing all the new goodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xanna Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 A game in a familiar place to get used to new mechanics, UI and items. As soon as I'm confident with that stuff, next game in an unfamiliar, new area (if we can spawn straight there) and enjoy feeling lost again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekillergreece Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 If I had a ready save file (basically not wiped), I would always arm myself (usually revolver), a few flares, medical items, food, water, moose satchel and crampons before heading to any kind of new regions. Now, things will obviously change since we all start from scratch. I think it would be more viable starting slowly in Mystery Lake or any more "safe" regions, find a suitable building to set down as "Headquarters", collect supplies, weapons, etc, scavenge nearby regions, stockpile everything before heading out to the newest regions, well-supplied, armed and, possibly, armoured. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hozz1235 Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 I think I'm going for a hybrid of #1 & 3. I'm not heading to the airfield naked, but I'm also not going to get top-notch gear before heading there. My excitement will push me towards the airfield. Once I fully explore it, I will then return to the vanilla zones and begin re-exploring them while I wait for other new zones to be released. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
