9 Essential Starter Tips For Death Stranding

  • Death Stranding's opening hours can be tough. Accomplishing objectives and delivering cargo is simple enough, but navigating the game's bizarre, often treacherous world is the biggest challenge. If Death Stranding's first three chapters are giving you a hard time, then we got 9 tips to help you start your journey.
    Slow And Steady Gets You Through Tough Terrain
    When you take your first steps during the opening hours, you'll immediately notice that even basic movement feels particularly demanding. There is a purpose for this, and it's all about putting you in the shoes of a delivery man carrying a heavy load of valuable cargo across treacherous landscapes. Unlike other open-world games where covering large amounts of ground can be easy, Death Stranding has a considerably slower pace. You're intended to travel across long stretches carrying tons of cargo, but if you're not smart about how you navigate the environment, Sam can quickly lose his footing and eat dirt.
    Slow and steady movement is the name of the game in Death Stranding, and you'll need to be constantly aware of the topography you're walking across. Take it slow and pay attention to the surfaces you're walking; be wary of rocks and steep inclines. By using the Odradek, Sam's shoulder-mounted robot assist, you can better evaluate the finer details on the ground ahead of you. Surfaces marked blue by the scanner are safe to walk across, while ground marked yellow should be approached with caution. If it's marked red, such as deep rivers or rough surfaces, then you're better off avoiding them entirely. There will be some cases where you'll have to traverse across tough terrain with tons of cargo, and when that happens, be sure to exercise caution. If you're ever afraid of how you might cross a terrain, start by holding the shoulder buttons to stabilize your center of gravity and walk through it first before picking up the pace.
    Inventory Management 101
    A crucial part of Death Stranding is managing and expanding your inventory. Depending on how you choose to organize your backpack and other inventory slots, Sam's poise, posture, and speed will be affected. You can eventually acquire exoskeletons to boost the overall carry limit, but it's essential to understand the basics in the beginning. First, you need to ensure that you're keeping track of what's on your body at all times. While exploring, it can be easy to pick up stray cargo, and before you know it, you'll find that Sam's stamina is reduced and his ability to balance is negatively impacted. There's a consequence for every item added to your inventory if you’re not careful. Even if you're far under the carry limit, you can still notice an impact on your movement speed and balance with enough things stacked on you.

    tips i would give to a new player,playing death stranding, 1 watch the cutscenes,listen to the dialogue when things are being told to you so you understand what to do and about the characters in the story,,2once you have access to blood grenaides use them against the BT Bosses after you get dragged away and after the BT boss is dead all the BT in that area are gone for at least a hour,3, once the weather station is accessible work on the weather stations star level aka reputation with that person, so that you get the cargo carriers which helps you carry lots more cargo, at lv 1 star, at about lv 3 or 4 star you get metal,at 5 you get the carrier level 2 which increases the amount of weight each cart can carry so use those cargo carrying carts,and build the roads so once you have access to trucks you can get places without having to worry about BT's,also don't be scared to hit the mules,presssquare on ps5 controller to fight has been a long time button press to punch,as it is with this game ..press it, fight the mules ( cargo stealing thieves) hit them,and steal there stuff which you need to build roads and the lost cargo they have that you can turn in yourself to gain more rep..those are some of my tips

    Personally I feel the problem with Death Stranding is that, its a game which requires active participation. Watching any game play will just make the viewer think that it's no more than a walking simulator, playing the game actively might just change the whole experience and impression of the game.

    The one aspect of the game that i really like is the social aspect of it. I had a difficult time crossing this 3 back to back rivers and then a steep cliff at the end. Then when i reached my destination the next mission is to backtrack to where i came and get back again. During my trip back i’m surprised to see the landscape already changed with ladders and bridges left by other players. I even passed by a highway which is under construction where everyone whose willing can donate materials to finish it. People need to experience this game to appreciate it. Judging it solely based on the walking is not right. The most important and surprising mechanic in the game is hidden and to experience it is a joy.

    Rivers. Be VERY careful around rivers (and cliff edges), as the Last thing you want is to stumble into one, half exhausted, run out of stamina halfway across - and there goes everything you were carrying for 20 minutes floating away, while you’re too tired to stand up, let alone give chase. That happened to me a Lot in the early game, and was always frustrating...

      Well, there have been a LOT of reviews out already delving into many of the game's mechanics. I'm away from my console and the game this week, but suspect I'm in the (literal) final few minutes of the game (or at least, the main story), so I've The Game to look back on.
      Yes, I'd recommend it. There are many frustrations which reviews have already commented on, But I also found it to be... A singular experience. There are things in there that I honestly haven't seen in other games (and I've been gaming 40+ years); and the open world itself begs to be explored - I'm aware that there are many places I haven't been, or seen.
      Ultimately, despite things I didn't like - bloody rivers! - there was a lot I did, and while there are things I'd tweak and like to see changed, I'd still recommend getting it, and I'm grateful for the review code I got.
      It'll frustrate and sometimes annoy, and the plot is pure Kojima, but you'll want to press on and, I suspect, simply take to the hills to hike about the brilliantly realised world once you've finished off the main storyline...

    I’ve played this game offline and it has been the best experience ever. Everything depends on me. I need to manage the weight, the places, the areas I will be driving through, consequently I am able to determine where I install the chargers for my bike in order to keep it charged throughout the deliveries. Also I do more than one delivery at a time by selecting the amount of weight to determined place. If the area has EPs then also I bring some blood grenades along and if there are Mules I bring an extra case to be used as a weapon when it’s necessary to defeat them. I also like to design the best paths by creating bridges in the right places. Man, it’s amazing to do that only by myself.

    Mules can be parried and then binded. Have the strand out and then hold l2 and wait for one of the mules to attack. Once he attacks, there is a slight moment that you can parry the mule by pressing r2 before the hit hits you. Then you can take then down 👍

    Always bring repair sprays and blood bags. If you see a cryptobiote, stop and grab those. When delivering a golden case or precious cargo, always put it in first, then cover it with unnecessary or junk cargo (early game) so that timefall won’t do that much damage. Be kind and always give likes, help build or upgrade, leave behind useful stuff or cargo for other players to use. Just saying, I play on hard so... anyone else playing on hard?

    Sometimes you’ll come across Mules that got armor on them protecting them from your punch. If you don’t have any weapon and don’t want to risk your cargo condition. Punch the ones without armor first, you’ll be able to catch their bag in hand instantly, then go fuck the armor guy up with their own cargo.

    It makes much more sense now, and you really have to play to understand what they were going for. In other games, I can just run around and stop on a dime. This game doesn't allow you to be lazy. Gameplay supposed to be tedious, the game is literally asking you if you have the will to do all this management stuff in order to get answers to the story, or are you going to put it on very easy mode and just watch the movie. There will be haters, but the story is very cool and unique sci-fi, and I want to know what happens.
