And yes... To even live in this game at all you need a tent. That's first and foremost.
I would argue that a bank account is first and foremost. A tent is 2nd.
Is there any point to playing this game without bringing a bunch of rl friends?
I must dissagree making alts for crafting and mining is a must then tent... then u can slowly level up your characters if you are playing alone.
Well.. i started this game without RL friends and i stop my game without them (When i got bored and never know when that going to happend)Ingame friends are too easy get for hunting trips/farming stuff, but if you want they to join faction then they betrayal you (most of them)
bank accaunt good only in redding and sf, maybe bh.i cant withdraw 1k caps in vc, ncr, hub. anytime i try.
Bank? But there are no interest rates. I don't see your point. It's much easier to make money after you get a tent anyway.
Its not just the game, its in real life too... get used to it.
I tried getting my RL friends (and brother) into this. They lasted about two hours. Fun two hours though, mostly spent in low level gun battles in Reno. Shame Reno wasn't so heavily camped back then, that would've encouraged a lot more new players.
You can survive alone it will be hard, but possible. Unfortunately, it won't be a fun game unless you find a bunch of friends.
