Practice Movement
Use the Item Boxes
Players have an extremely limited inventory so its best to deposit items you are not using at the moment away in these large chests called Item Boxes. Don’t worry all large chests share their contents so deposit away! Avoid using this if you are after theMinimalist trophy.
Obtain all the Hip Pouches
EachHip Pouchadds 2 more inventory slots increasing the number of items you can carry. Obtaining 1 unlocks theHip to Add Squares trophy, while collecting all of them unlocks theA Waist of Space trophy.
Don’t Move & Shoot
Moving while attempting to shoot will keep your reticle larger than if being stationary and trying to shoot. Stop, aim, shoot is optimal to be as precise as you can. Look at the difference!
Immobilize Your Target
Shoot at the zombies legs to slow them down, they will crawl and or move at a slower pace than normal. Now you’re able to get behind them and slash them to death again with your knife. Speaking of knives that leads us to our next tip.
Slash! Don’t Counter-Attack
Slashing wears down the knife slower than if you are using it as a method of counter-attacking. 2 Counter-attacks will wear a knife from max durability! Once a knife’s durability hits 0 it will leave your inventory so be wary of this!
Saving is limited! (Hardcore Mode)
Playing on the hardest difficulty limits saving as players will have to obtain an ink ribbon in order to save. For those playing on the lower difficulties this does not apply to you.
Shoot all the Raccoons
Scattered through out the game will be these toy Mr. Raccoons that must be destroyed in order to unlockVermin ExterminationandComplete Vermin Extermination trophies.
