Cheese or Strategy?
1. Farming Daybreak so you can purchase weapons, explosives and/or the facilities.
2. Selling the facilities for influence points? To artificially build up your influence points.
3. Using Daybreak to purchase a Red Talon agent? They tend to be waaaaay overpowered and can make the game easier IMHO.
4. Using the Independence Pack to buy a new vehicle, the overpowered weapons, etc
5. Jumping on the hood of your vehicle to escape the zombies, feral, etc. Ain't it funny that zombies aren't able to climb on the hood of a car or truck.
6. Using the rear end of your car or truck to clear out the hordes, Kill ferals, juggernauts.
7. Turning up the brightness so you can see when it gets dark int he game.

As for me, most of these tactics are cheesy or just downright cheats. I'll use Daybreak to purchase ONE Red Talon agent. Usually its the mobile operator. They are way to overpowered and make the game easy. Even on the hardest settings. I never use anything from the independence packs, and will only purchase a few weapons and explosives from the Daybreak trader. They IMO take away from what the game is about for me. Survival and looting. And yes, I will jump on the hood of my vehicle if I have the chance. I'll also use the read end of my vehicle to kill ferals, Juggernauts, zombie hordes. And no, I don't turn up the brightness because I can't see in the game. If its nighttime its supposed to be dark.

What about you?

I've been playing with a forever community for about 2 years. 8 red talon agents and 4 regular survivors on lethal. That's 12 survivors total. I play wingman style, which means I bring a follower everywhere I go. I use whatever is in the game. No shame. I feel like I earned it.

I use zed eye every night.

The great thing about this game is that u can play however u want. If you want 12 survivors fully loaded using all weapons go for it.

If you want to try lethal with no vehicles, no weapons, no community, knife only, no sneaking, no running, no jumping.... have fun.
