Days Gone Beginner Tips

Here are some tips on how to play Days Gone as a beginner:

1. Play it as a stealth game. Avoid using guns unless necessary, as they will attract more Freakers. Use your boot knife to perform stealth takedowns and conserve ammo. Use suppressors to reduce noise when shooting.

2. Always restock ammo, refuel at camps. Camps are your safe havens where you can buy supplies, upgrade your bike, and sleep. Make sure to visit them often and fill up your gas tank and ammo pouches before leaving.

3. Upgrade your bike. Your bike is your best friend in the game, as it allows you to travel, save, and fast travel. Upgrade its fuel tank, engine, tires, and other parts to improve its performance and durability.

4. Use ‘Focus’ often. Focus is a skill that lets you slow down time and aim more accurately. It can be very useful in combat situations, especially against human enemies and hordes. Upgrade your Focus skill and capacity with NERO injectors and skill points.

5. Upgrading skills. You can earn skill points by completing missions, clearing infestations, and leveling up your trust with camps. You can spend them on three skill trees: Melee, Ranged, and Survival. Choose the skills that suit your playstyle and preferences.

6. Clear out infestations. Infestations are areas where Freakers nest during the day. Clearing them out will make the area safer and unlock fast travel points. Use molotovs or other explosives to burn the nests and kill the Freakers that come out.

7. Craft while scavenging for items. You can find various items in the world that can be used for crafting weapons, tools, and consumables. You can craft on the fly by opening the survival wheel and selecting the item you want to make. Crafting is essential for survival, so always look for items and craft whenever you can.

8. Save often. The game has an autosave feature, but it can be unreliable at times. You can manually save by using your bike or sleeping at camps or safe houses. Saving often will prevent you from losing progress or having to repeat difficult sections.

9. Be prepared for hordes. Hordes are massive groups of Freakers that roam the world and can overwhelm you easily. You can avoid them or try to take them on if you feel confident. To fight hordes, you need a lot of ammo, explosives, traps, stamina, and focus. Use the environment to your advantage and try to funnel them into narrow spaces or choke points.

10. Enjoy the story and the world. Days Gone has a rich and immersive story that explores themes of loss, hope, love, and friendship. The game also has a beautiful and diverse open world that changes with weather and time of day. Take your time to explore the world, interact with characters, listen to radio calls, read notes, and discover secrets.

I hope these tips help you enjoy Days Gone more. Have fun! 😊
