I only had my shotgun and my elite pistol had four rounds :( had to make use of my hunting bow which didnt work out well

#

Doesn't help that all the melee thugs cornered me and forced me to move which resulted in me getting killed

Are you rushing through the story or taking it slow?
Before each main mission I usually go back to my stash and stock up on whatever I may need and bring some extra items just in case.
Police cars and convoys can give you ammo and be sure to check the merchant as well

#

WHY does the chain sword have katana animations but not the KATANAS THEMSELVES....

#

the rewards are for completing restored land and one life mode , not survival as far as I know

Right now i need to know where tf are those intermediate manual pages

Why did they have to name it "restored land" like that's such a bad name

Has anyone else's revive serum just disappeared? I got both of them, and then out of nowhere I checked my inventory and they were gone. Do you know if they're consumed by abandoning some side missions, or how does it work?

I ran shotgun for Human's cause fluff them. Marksman are THE WORST. I've died too many times to those pricks than almost anything in the game... lol

#

Just lost one life mode at level five, most safe zones restored, quarter of the dark zones clear, and over 1000 enemies dead

#

Literally an all-day-long affair, I was abt to sign off for the night but thought ā€œah let me get this one last dark zoneā€ and didn’t listen to my own spidey senses that I was abt to accidentally kms

#

It wasn’t even a freakin hard one, it was the scavenger shirt one in the Villa area with a single screamer. I fat thumbed the Molotov at the viral in the corner thinking I had my UV flashlight equipped bcus I usually do for dark zones, but forgot that one (1) time and bam, literally 8 hours wasted.

#

What a dumb way to go out, sorry Kyle ā˜¹ļø

Any line on a nightmare mode update for Restored Land? They've diluted every aspect of RL that makes it hardcore since its release when are they going to make the hardcore mode hardcore again?

I think someone else mentioned having trucks also be persistent, so you actually have to take care to refuel and repair it and to leave it at strategic locations.
I actually would like for the car system to get an update down the road, being able to upgrade them at the mechanic, some paint jobs as collectables in the open world and maybe even upgrade certain parts like in the following

probably not gonna do one life because i value the integrity of my desk and do not wish to snap it in 2

It'll carry you hard

gotcha, was planning on using my original build which was ciupaga and heavy gear, but scav is good too

Well if you need more parts you can use it then swap

i see

#

Use your money for the backpack upgrades

#

Like save up for the first one then money is easy to earn really. You can buy some bits from the stores if you need to

#

Theres an abundance of scrap so you'll never struggle with that it's more leather and other things like batteries

opaque violet
#

If you're not doing one life, scavenger was the way to go. I know most of the boss fights in and out so I ran scavenger gear CONSTANTLY. Only swapped to Parkourist gear (for the +% to throwing weapons IE: CIUPAGA) towards the end after getting the second revive serum in my deathless run. but again, play how you want if you're not going that route. I never grinded out the legend levels in the main game, but I can't stress if you ever do go for the deathless run you can find the revive serum immediately after the tutorial quests. I had ciupaga for the demolisher guy (2nd boss). šŸ˜‚

How do I do it

#

You play the campaign again only it has optional hunger/battery use on the flashlight. You clear out each region of zombies and they die permanently.

So if I load into my save and kill a group of zombies they won't spawn again

Anyone has any tips to find last few zombies in a region, thought about decoy grenades but they kinda suck

Is there a way lure them,some them hide in bushes or in parks

somber yarrow
#

not that I know of, I had missed some in the forest and in some buildings

little glade
#

Buildings are tricky cus it’s annoying that u don’t know which ones open and which ones not

vagrant cedar
#

For example, in old town I am at low threat-half bar and I am certain there are 0 zombies on the street, how can there be some infected inside of buildings when usually I find like 1 or 2 inside

little glade
#

Plus it’s harder to see openings unless you’ve got good vision. I do but I just forget where the openings are sometimes

little glade
vagrant cedar
#

Cleared all dark zones, killed all zombies at the church, there is no way there is that much inside residential buildings

#

I guess I'll craft some spas decoys and spam those to lure them

#

Super weird

#

Good luck ,

#

Keeping track like this is hell but also kind of satisfying, and fantastic for hunting down those collectibles and materials organically. ALSO. ROOFTOPS. SO many more Infected than you’d think lurk up there

#

The binoculars can see really far and are also a great tool to help, as you can place waypoint marks on the ones you spot. Map mark the points one by one if you spot a shitload of them in the wide radius of where ur binoculars can see when you turn in a 360

vagrant cedar
#

Thanks for the advice, seen some infected on the rooftops used the binoculars in much open and bigger region but the issue with them is that you have to be stationary with them

Isnt the beast and restored land the same? or is it a dlc thing?

Is there anything important I should know for my first time playing restored land on one life

#

?

#

Has anyone else had regions be restored despite not killing all the infected?

#

It's really annoying

#

For some reason infected inside buildings or on rooftops just didn't count for me

#

It just auto restored it without even getting the threat meter empty

light grove
#

@olive patrol @wide crystal Best advice I can give you is take your time, dont take risks, be very sure of your parkour as one wrong jump can end your one life run. Get the Ciupaga as soon as you can as this will help build your resources. Food isn't that bad really, there's plenty to find you just need to go around looting.

drifting perch
#

Anything that you recommend to at least take out volatiles? Not to farm but like if I really had no choice in a dark zone. I find going out at night is never worth it for the danger if you're on One Life

light grove
#

Plonk down a UV bar and hit them a bunch while they're on fire. Flashbangs are also useful for this just dont look at it until it flashes. Ultimately the best way to fight them is one at a time, dodging carefully and using a decent weapon

#

Fire mods are always good

#

also, thanks for all the tips

#

and i still have the question, whats the best way to get overleved, as im pretty sure id just get destroyed without being overleveled in most places

sour geode
#

you can't really be overleveled

#

you're just underleveled or the right level

And it stacks with the scavenger gear

You dont use the legendary version to fight but make your own via the blueprint

# olive patrol Is there anything important I should know for my first time playing restored lan...

Do u want like an extended survival guide doomsday prepper level shit? Ive been doing test runs and could give extended notes and locations to hit first for minmaxing your run. As it is, check the #šŸ“·ļø±beast-photomode for a map of the locations of roughly all the safe zones you can restore early-game for leveling up (skulls), and the location of the scavenger armor set under the stars, which is this gamemode’s best friend tbh. In sparknotes:

  • Kill every zombie around monastery before the chimera to get your combat landlegs in, resources for the fight, and a foundation to get started. Do NOT start the fight without Kyle’s ā€œbeast modeā€ bar at halfway full or more than 75%. Ideally, you want to spend the 1st stage targeting its back + hella dodging; use beast mode to merk its ass when it summons zombies in phase 2

  • Pied Piper* zombies in specific high-density zones to clump them into a tight crowd and run FAR from them to throw a Molotov at them. If you think you are far away enough, take three more staggers back.

  • Establish ALL the safe zones before gameplay to get more HP and combat acclimation, up to level 4-ish. Use your first 2 level points to get the flamethrower perk. It will be your best friend and most useful weapon. One single lovetap of the trigger spending 3/200 gas points can engulf and obliterate a tightly compacted group of zombies you successfully pied piper into shape (VERY easy to do btw).

  • Collect Scavenger Set to get to level 6 post-establishing safe zones to get Ciupaga ASAP. It will be your savior and greatest ally. Scavenger set bulks ciupaga damage, and half the set is in dark zones that are ā€œsafeā€ to loot during daytime.

  • Clear said ā€œsafeā€ dark zones during the day— ones where the description does NOT explicitly say volatiles lurk there during the day. The small zones will only have a screamer to guard it during the day, which is easily dispatched with a sneak attack. Best way to get good supplies without risking your neck.

finite wind
#

Also, in your accessories. ALWAYS. and I mean ALWAYS. Have your UV flashlight equipped over anything else. You can always safely fat-thumb it and still have it help you in some way. In fact, it is fantastic for staggering enemies before they grapple you. You will never be this lucky with anything else, least of all a fucking Molotov. Keep it on the flashlight ALWAYSSS.

OBSESSIVELY bandage yourself to full health, even if Kyle only has a couple scrapes. You never know when that single iota of health will save your guys’ asses. It absolutely will.

Andddd spam exploding knives (shockingly cheap to make compared to a normal knife and further bolstered by scavenger set), but only when you have a high ground of some kind, like a truck or rooftop so that the impending virals would need to climb to reach you. Take advantage of their animation and play whack-a-mole. Minimal risk!

Let hazmat zombies grapple you if u have a throwing knife, bcus you can be certain their tank won’t explode unless you’re a jackass and hit it separately.

Dodge backwards twice from an enemy and crouch in place for seconds to restore your stamina hella faster.

  • If you’d like a video demonstration of how pied pipering looks at its ā€œmost safeā€ form, lemme know and I’ll drop one. Most basically though, what you do is literally run circles around the entire crowd, and then RUN straight through the middle of the circle you in a straight line but while jumping repeatedly. The jumping keeps any of them from grappling you, and running gives you the best shot of little of them managing to hit you as you go past, if any. Seriously, the jumping is the core reason the running works. You have to jump like an idiot. Doing the repetitive circling and straight lines through the crowd bunches them up into very compact crowds in like 2-5 minutes, barely even that long. And from there, a single love tap of the flame thrower (which is safest), or a Molotov, the fire will take care of them all in moments.
#

Lastly. Lovetap flamethrower on all human enemies. Two granules of gas for a guaranteed quick and easy kill since their ai will be too busy dealing with being on fire than to bother with attacking Kyle.

Time most annoying regions to restore were old town and farmlands, others were not that bad

#

and whats better to do, kill the zombies with the axe for more loot, or kill them with fire for a faster and usually safer clear?

I'm at the final mission in my permadeath run. Any tips are welcome, specifically for the first part, sneaky kill 4 marksman and open the gate (kill everyone in stealth if possible).

It doesnt happen very often but Ive lost good runs to it

opaque violet

#

I picked up Ciupaga damn near every other level, including the legendary SMG and Legendary Pistol as they're all fairly close to eachother. Downfall to pistol and smg is that you can't dismantle and you can't drop them. so you have to store them in your stash.

#

I play fist-only

fading tinsel
#

man it woulda been so good if once u restored a region it made the rest of the zombies dissapear

#

Cuz realistically if its actually restored then u wouldnt see a zombie since humans "reclaimed" it

opaque violet
#

Could be a "slowly" rising up or new corpses. That would be fair in terms of "clearing" a zone but if you leave it neglected they slowly respawn šŸ˜„

fading tinsel
#

dying light 2 style safe zones

#

where once u clear a region in DLTB

#

u get a whole cutscene of survivors putting up defenses at the border of the region and fully turning it

#

into a mega safe zone

#

Might be overkill

#

I think theres not enough people alive in castor woods to do that

#

so scrap it

#

xd

opaque violet
#

That wouldn't be a bad idea for Old Town for sure, or the other "town" after you cleared out the volatile hives.

fading tinsel
#

but i dont know how would dat work for farm lands for example

opaque violet
#

Yeah that's why I brought up the gated community

fading tinsel
#

Orrr maybe it would be cool if it didnt make a mega safezone but just unlocked more safezones to unlock

#

within the region

#

for night time

#

atleast something

#

new quests

#

anything

opaque violet
#

that would be a good idea to put in their feedback or survey they put out a bit ago šŸ™‚

fading tinsel
#

they left out some stuff from DL2

#

that wouldve been good

#

Hold on i just realized this is an actively developped game which means it could be added

#

what a relief

opaque violet
#

Yeah I wasnt a big fan of the factions thing, but I did like the idea that you could choose specific "factions" for either traps or survivor or whatever it was. I completed DL2 twice and felt that was enough. Debating on going back to DL1 but those volatile hives where everything comes running back in if you weren't fast enough was what gave me anxiety šŸ˜‚

fading tinsel
#

yeah i didnt care for the factions just the rewards

#

but it annoyed me that u could only do like

opaque violet
#

be fun to change the story a bit of killing sheriff and jacob takes over completely

fading tinsel
#

Max out one path only

#

aiden is so overpowered with inhibitors so they might aswell have let us get more faction bases for max both paths

opaque violet
#

exactly

fading tinsel
#

and speaking of the paths

#

survivor stuff for parkour

#

woulda been peak here in old town once u restore it

#

Unless if most of it is already there

#

icl i forgot

fading tinsel
#

Im in 1.3 seconds

#

That woulda been so good

finite wind
# wide crystal which one do i do first, get all the safe zones i can, or get the scavenger armo...

I see the logic of getting the scavenger set to get more loot from the safe zones you restore, but in actuality, the number of enemies there for you to combat is very small and relatively easy to dispatch, and the safe zones don’t have much loot to speak of. The purpose of knocking out all the safe zones first is to level up as quickly as possible before you get into the thick of gameplay so that you have a couple more health points to work with, and therefore more of a chance of survival if something goes wrong, which will happen constantly. It also allows you to get that flamethrower ASAP, which supplements for the OPness of Ciupaga until you level up enough to retrieve it. All for like, an hour of effort tops. Pure minmaxing.

I never liked or trusted Florence at all lmfao, the moment she betrayed Kyle I wasnt the least bit surprised. I gotta compliment the writing for how perfectly unlikable she is without veering into comical tropes. I wouldnt kill her, but I think Kyle/players should have the option, if not to kill her, then to at least punch her out

#

She literally got closer to getting him killed than the Baron ever did himself.

So is the deathless outfit the only thing you get for completing one life mode?

opaque violet
#

There are 2 outfits... 1 outfit for completing one life mode, and one outfit for deathless. So if you complete Restored Lands on one life you'll get both outfits. and an "Unbeatable" achievement

I got them for accidents, I don’t really ever die to enemies it’s always some bs like the auto aim when you tap throwables I’ve killed myself Mollys doin that a couple times can happen with explosives as well, can come in handy if you fall through the map or Kyle doesn’t feel like grabbing a ledge on your way down 😤

But I’ve been close other times with other bosses

They did make a change in game. During the school mission there was a volatile up top (now a howler guy) so I picked the front lock and killed the marksman at the entrance. Then just finished up quick, tried it again for giggles and you can't pick the front lock anymore lol
