Prophetraz:
Hello people, I just started playing and I have no idea how to do really anything. I started out in the middle of the desert with no equipment or money, and I honestly have no idea where I could go train or get some gear. I tried the Arena, but the lady kept giving me broken armor, and the weapon she gave me disappeared when I logged back in today. Does anyone have any tips to get me started in this game? I can't really use my knowledge of the games, so I would really appreciate the help. Sorry to be such a noob, but I really have no idea where to go. A link to a good tutorial would be useful as well.

Unfortunately a good tutorial for beginners doesn't exist.

Generally first thing to do is to collect 10 brahmin hides and make a tent.
Tents and faction bases are only safe places to store items (if you dont bring anyone there).

1. Get enough xp and gear to be a able to kill a brahmin.
2. Kill 10 wild brahmin and make a tent (or get the hides in some other way).
3. Until then you must stash items in some rarely visited place, behind a barrel in a corner of a map etc.
4. For now don't waste time to craft or buy armors. The game has full loot and you will die. A lot.
5. Don't go to unguarded towns with items you aren't ready to lose. Guarded towns: Hub, Shady Sands, Junktown, Frisco, VC, Adytum
6. Watch out for thieves in guarded towns. Don't let people touch you, keep caps in item1/2 slots.

Hm, after playing for a short while and realizing you lose everything when you die, makes me wonder if I will enjoy this as much as I thought. This is what made me not play DayZ, lol. I'm not saying it's bad, some people like a big challenge like that. I'm just not sure I will. It didn't say it in the Wiki so I wasn't aware that it would happen. I went into the desert trying to find Junktown, when I was utterly destroyed by raiders. They took my only weapon that I received through a quest, and thus cannot earn back. Around 300 bottlecaps, and some other misc stuff. I'm not really a fan of this type of game. I wasn't really looking for the whole "Be scared 24/7 in-game" type of gameplay, like DayZ. I may try again, but the ruthlessness of this game type is not really for me. I am aware I'll probably get flamed for this, but I'm trying to say this in a respectful way.

racoon:
dude, 300 caps is really nothing and pistol which you lose i can give 20 of those pistols for free. if you'll play some more you will get tons of stuff by yourself. every newbie quits because he lost pistol and broken jacket, dont give up!
