Where in the ♥♥♥♥ is hideout 3?

[PizzaSHARK]

I have explored the entirety of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ old woods and the hideout is nowhere to be found. Why the ♥♥♥♥ aren't the hideouts just on the map automatically if you're going to force the player to stay near them at night?

So ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dumb.

The game has multiple locations where you can pick up items that mark the next hideout.

Also, hideouts tend to be generated close to the transition areas.

Right, but I searched every area in Silent Forest and never came across a map. I went straight up into Old Woods, directly through the center of the area and found basically all of the set areas like the church ruins and hunter house, then started working my way along the sides, finding the creepy house and numerous other areas... but no hideout 3. Spent literally all day and evening searching for it and never did find it.

Really, really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid way to lose multiple hours of gameplay. There is zero reason why Wolfman or Musician shouldn't just write the location of hideout 3 on your map once you give them the key. Considering the player is FORCED to spend the night in the hideout, there's zero justification for them not being put onto the map whenever the player is expected to move on to the next section.

Maybe you shouldn't be so brash. Respect the woods, be patient and careful, and return to hideout 2 to spend another night if necessary. If you're extremely desperate to get there, Hideout 3 is usually close to the road that runs through the Old Woods.

It's not adviced to spend the night there unless you've plenty of construction materials on-hand or at least some booze and the bike-bell to get it quickly. Without proper barricades and traps you're bound to be demolished by roaming enemies.

Right, and that's what I did. The first day I explored just inside the area after the bridge, murdered some dogs and chompers, didn't find the hideout so I went back to hideout 2 and waited until I had a full day to explore.

I assumed I wouldn't find another bell, so I took it with me.

I'll respect the woods when the developer respects the player. There is zero reason the hideouts shouldn't either be put on the map automatically for you, or that a map item that fills them in shouldn't be located together with a plot-relevant item (like the feces covered key.)

Piotrek sells the map (and he is marked on map, if you have found Silent Forest map). It's really unfortunate if you never have encountered him, or never bought map from him.

Also, usually you should find roads in Old Woods. One of them is between Hideout 3 and other notable location.
