What do you do ingame?

[Schmidti]

So I got the game but I don't really get it. What do you do? Just shoot guns at a shooting range?

[JordanPuma]

Hit the big Take and Hold button in the main menu.

It's one of the more fleshed out game modes, and if you're brand new to the game, it's going to heavily punish you for not knowing how to use things.

After you get thoroughly spanked, head over to the Sampler Platter, play around with the different items and get an idea for how to use the controls with the help of the big tutorial screens. Once you're feeling more comfortable moving around and shooting and such, that's when you go for completing TnH runs. It takes a lot of getting murked to learn how to position yourself and shoot sosigs without thinking about it.

After about ~300 hours you'll be ready for the real gamemode;

Grenade Boomski.

Take and Hold is indeed the biggest part; good challenge when fighting enemies with random weapons under pressure. Half of all my time in VR is there.

Rotweiners is fun for a more RPG experience with zombies.

Capocolloseum is also fun for some skirmishes.

Never tried Meat Grinder for the horror experience.

And yes, Grenade Boomski is the final boss.

to add to what the other have said, if you just want to shoot a bunch of wieners you can go in the test scene and in the back there's some sort of arena where you can make two teams of bots shoot each other and you can join them

I love the game but I really wish the devs would add additional levels for Take and Hold. Some additional "big" gamemodes would be sweet as well. The game just has the best gun catalogue and gun mechanics.

consider that the game is still in alpha, many more things will come but they'll need their time to be worked on and to be released in a decent state

Modding does exist in regard to maps; did see some videos.

But of course you are on your own there; mod talk is not for these forums. With regular updates, things tend to get borked.

Are you talking about the open snowy "Dakota" map? Or something else?

This map seemed nice at the first glance. However, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but I sometimes have to "walk" for more than 5 minutes to the next POI without any interaction during the travel time. Seems the locations are way to far apart and not really enjoyable for me.

But maybe it's just me and I'm just doing something wrong lol.

Use the grappling hooks, ice picks or if you can't bother and just use teleport

Do yourself a favor and install some of the community maps, which can be found at h3vr.thunderstore.io.
Costa con Carne and Hotel Hotlink are both really good.

Edit: Get r2modman for mod management. Makes installation and keeping stuff up-to-date much easier.

Tried to use the grappling hook but somehow this was even slower than walking for me lol but maybe there is some hidden mechanic how to use that correctly?

I'm not using teleport normally but would be a possible solution, thanks!

Thanks a lot, that sounds very promising :D

I would give both my bollocks to experience this game for the first time again. I sometimes really get into Take and hold especially modded maps and characters but it can be very exhausting mentally and physically. When I can't be bothered to do that but I wanna shoot some guns I head to one of the ranges and muck about until I get bored or tired. I would highly recommend to get into modding the game because there's so many cool and wacky things you can bloat your game with.

Swing your hand as you retract the rope, and you can fling yourself.

Which mods would you recommend besides some new maps for TnH?
