I have found that the loot respawn trick is best used on the higher end objects..like tool chests and barrels and cop cars. There is far too much scrap iron to use it on basic cars and scrap piles./..it will drive you nuts. I would also recommend when starting out dive near the starting island and gather enough iron to make as you base from metal instead of wasting wood...also make the metal barrels instead of wooden chests to further save wood.

Yeah I agree... And that's a great tip on the metal. Wood is defiantly the most needed resource since its needed to process ingots and food etc.

Thank you, I have more videos like this that I'm putting together now. Stay tuned. 😁👍

Found some more useful tips. It is safe to build your base on the trader outpost. I suggest laying your first foundation just off the edge of the top floor, and build about 5 of these before building your actual base. Mutant attacks do not damage foundations, and do not attack the merchant. Those 5 foundations will make a straight narrow path to your actual base, a bottleneck so they can only attack from one predictable direction. This also, obviously gives easy access to the trader, and several respawning resource nodes. Also The Mansion is a fairly safe location to go diving for resources. There's one room blocked by a chunk of steel reinforced asphalt. You'll need the pickaxe to clear it. The room beyond has loot definitely worth the effort. I scored a bottle of fine wine, and two blueprints, including the motorboat.

This should be a very helpful video. I have had five play throughs in the three days I’ve owned this game and I’ve tried building on the cliff three or four times and ended up scrapping it, now, the latest iteration I have started building on the abandoned building in the villages. No idea if that’s a good idea or not yet.

Yeah you can build wherever you want, just keep in mind that if you're building on an island or outpost that the Devs are still making adjustments to island and building locations so there could be a chance things move on you after an update.

My next run, I think building directly over the police station would be good. Since while away we can save log, and then when done with that new location, we return home, and can do a quick dive down to re-loot the ammo and gear out of the respawned police cars... if we dont fully empty them out each time...?

No reason, it was just as an example. When first starting the game it really doesn't matter too much. After day 5 or so, it's good to start switching to scrap. But if you build near that island then wood is easy.
