Обзор how to survive

Setting Up Camp In A:

Snow cave: If you have at least four feet of strong snow, you can dig yourself a snow cave to stay in. The problem? It will probably be freezing in there. The benefit? Freezing temperatures will actually be warm compared to outside of the snow cave.Digging a snow cave, of course, requires a shovel. Thus, a shovel can help would-be frigid mountain trekkers in more than one way.

Tent: A four season tent can be great. However, the wind can sometimes make a tent a noisy place to be (constant flapping). Thus, people may choose to build walls (out of snow or brush) around it for added shelter. If you want tent recommendations take a look at our list of the best survival tents.

Again, a shovel would help in this endeavor.

Bivy: Get in a sleeping bag and lay down for a good night! Usually, people do this in cracks in rocks or in a dug trench. This is about as basic as it gets, of course. In other words, only if you have to.

We have a list of recommendations for the best ultralight sleeping bags here if you don’t have a good one.

Прокачка и повышение уровня

Пока что в игре представлены всего три героя (Два парня и девушка) каждый из них обладает слабыми и сильными сторонами. Выбирайте на свой вкус, но я бы посоветовал паренька с средними характеристиками.

После убийства и волнения квестов вы будете получать опыт, с каждым новым уровенем, ваши характеристики будут увеличиваться. Также вы получите одно очко, которое можно потратить на развитие навыков персонажа.

У каждого персонажа имеются первичные показатели. Вот они и прокачиваются по мере прохождения игры.

Жизни (HEALTH) — количество очков здоровья.
Выносливость (STAMINA) — шкала бега.
Точность (PRECISION) — показатель меткости ГГ.
Сила (STRENGTH) — показатель силы удара.

А вот так выглядит шкала прокачки навыков↓

Защита и броня главного героя

Через это же меню можно и просмотреть шмотки вашего персонажа. Тут отображаются все одетые, остальные лежат в инвентаре. Кстати, чтобы улучшить броню, её сначала нужно снять. У каждого элемента есть показатель защиты. Смотрите скриншот.

Виды зомби и прочих врагов в игре

Простой зомби — слабый и медленный, но иногда может ускориться. Убивается всеми видами оружия.
Зомби-толстяк — жирный и медленный, при сближении с ГГ взрывается отнимая кучу жизней. Быстро дохнет от любых попаданий.
Зомби в броне — нательный бронежилет защищает его от всех ударов в корпус.Бейте в голову.
Зомби в каске — действует как и простой мертвец, только первое попадание в голову, просто снимет его защиту, а не убьёт.
Зомби в каске и защите — самый опасный гад, его не достать первым выстрелом в голову и не пробить броник. Только двойное попадание в башку умертвит негодяя.
Длинный зомби — один из видов обычного мертвяка.
Ночной зомби — появляется только ночью, имеет много жизней, но боится света.
Крабы — слабые хищные крабы, могут прилипнуть к ноге.
Птицы-зомби — атакуют быстро и стаями, от них не убежать.
Олень-зомби — разгоняется рогами вперёд, от него нужно постоянно уворачиваться. Боится криты в голову.
Зомби здоровяк БОСС — всего я встречал три вида таких упырей. Первый просто гонялся за мной пытаясь стукнуть руками, второй швырялся трупами, третий стучал по земле сбивая меня с ног. А финальный БОСС сочетает в себе все три вида.
Пираньи — хищные создания, плавающие в воде. Жрут всё, до чего доберутся.

To survive a tornado, immediately move to an underground shelter or basement. If you don’t have access to an underground shelter or basement, try to move as far away from nearby windows as possible, and get under a heavy table to protect yourself from falling debris. If you’re outside when a tornado hits, get inside the nearest building or stay in your car if there’s no shelter nearby. If you have nowhere to go, lie face down in the lowest spot you can find. To learn how to prepare for a tornado, scroll down.

The Desert

Finally, in southern Russia, the group came out of of the mountains. One of the men, a Russian, decided to go his own way.

And now vast desert lay before the main group — the Gobi Desert; they had made it into Mongolia. Below Mongolia was still China, then the Himalayas, and finally India and freedom.

With the desert before them the escape from the Soviets had taken on new challenges and new dangers and new climate extremes. The dangers now were from the lack of water and possibility of dying of heat stroke.

One of the only clues we have of hot weather is the teenage girl’s death from heat stroke made worse by thirst; soon after the entire group almost loses their lives to a sand storm; quick thinking though leads the group to run the opposite direction from a fast approaching colossal wall of dust — they ducked down behind a shallow slope of sand just in time.

By the time the storm has passed it’s clear that the group was lucky they didn’t get caught by the full brunt of the storm.

Study The Terrain To Find Wildlife

Due to the need for shade at times, look for lizards and snakes under large boulders, rocks, and other outcroppings. As mentioned above, you increase your odds of finding wildlife by looking in areas near green vegetation — because that is where snakes and reptiles are going to have their greatest odds of finding food.

Rabbits: Some desert areas will have rabbits (think jack rabbits) and other varmints. A coyote or Hawk or other predator may have caught an animal that you can turn into food. Any flesh they’re eating is likely to be fresh — chase away the predator and then cook the carcass thoroughly and you just got yourself a free dinner.

Rabbit holes may be found in areas of sage brush. Set fire to the sage brush — once it burns down, sit at the base of a rabbit hole with a short, thick stick, out of sight of any rabbit in the hole; club any rabbit as it exits.

Lizards, out in the open, can be killed with a swiftly thrown rock or “throwing stick”. Also, in the early morning hours, look for lizards under flat rocks. Pin it with a stick or kill it with a rock.

Snakes may be found and caught easiest with minimal risk when they’re sunbathing on a rock (the risk is greater when you have to look under rocks for snakes — they can catch you by surprise).

A Note On Hunting

For these men on the run and traveling vast distances through the snowy wilderness, they didn’t have time to trap food. Trapping food calls for waiting in an area for a few days, waiting for small animals (rabbits, squirrels, opossums, chipmunks, raccoons, foxes, etc) to spring traps. Then you have to comb the area and check your traps. These men didn’t have a few days though. They had to keep moving, or so it seemed to them. In a situation like this, where you have to keep moving, it’s going to be insects that are likely to save the day. You can (usually) easily find these as you travel through an area.

Make it important to know what the edible insects are in the wilderness and mountains that you may one day find yourself in; a lot of people hike and camp or go through drives through the mountains. Know what’s edible in your local mountain ranges before you go on excursions; should an emergency take place or you (or one of your family members) get lost, you’ll know how to find insects that you can eat and survive off when food isn’t available.

Avalanche Danger In The Mountains

Every year in the Alps alone, 120-150 people die in small avalanches. Thus, avalanche is a very real danger. Further, they oftentimes happen on the same kinds of slopes that skiers prefer. Other popular mountain ranges prone to avalanche danger are the Cascade Mountains in the Pacific Northwest as well as the Rocky Mountains stretching north / south through Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah.Here are some of the different kinds of avalanches to look out for.

Slab avalanche: Happens when a plate of snow breaks off of a mountain and starts sliding down. Unfortunately, if you see this kind of avalanche coming at you it means real trouble.

Hard slab avalanche: When hard-packed snow breaks off and begins hurtling downward in a cohesive slab. Because it is hard- packed, it may break off in several hard and large pieces as it falls downward.

Soft slab avalanche: Same as hard slab, but the slab breaks up more readily.

Loose snow avalanche: This type of avalanche is triggered by a small amount of moving snow that accumulates into a big slide. It is also known as a “wet slide or point release” avalanche.

Snow Blinders

Ski goggles would have saved the day of course, but no one had ski goggles; luckily that included the guards. The Polish convict had the answer though — he cut away sections of bark from a nearby tree that had fallen and then cut two slits — for eye holes — into each section — and then each man simply held it up in front of his face.

In North America the Eskimos in the far north would call these “snow blinders”. For the Eskimos snow blinders had a dual purpose — not only keeping snow out of the eyes, but on sunny days they helped greatly reduce the glare from the sun’s light reflecting off the snow, which can make it nearly impossible to see.

How do we Write Reviews?

You may have noticed that our posts differ from reviews on other sites. We offer you to read compact reviews that contain only the most important information about the equipment and environments to use it. Our texts are easy to read, and it always brings pleasure and new knowledge.

It works like this because:

We select only the most useful facts
Our guidelines contain all the necessary details of handling equipment
We follow the updates on the manufacturers’ websites
Our managers are always up to date with the latest market innovations
We understand what it means to be prepared in a survival situation
Our authors never escalate unnecessary fear and anxiety but sensibly warn you about possible dangers
The writers follow a clear text structure, so our posts are pleasant and easy to read.

We control both the content and the form of our reviews. Our goal is to tell you about all the subtleties of equipment and behavior you should stick to in a survival situation, whether it’s a hike or a car accident. We know that if you are ready for difficulties, you will be able to successfully cope with any task in tricky conditions. Our goal is to help you survive, and we strive for it every day!

Q&A[]

Example answer: If you have some useful weapons, like a spear, you should be able to kite it, or if you don’t think you could kite it or don’t want to take a chance, lure it very far from your base (About a half a days travel), and plant pine cones near it, and it will become neutral.

Question: How would I easily kill the Tentacles in the marshes? It’s hard gathering reeds when these purple things come up and quickly kill me…

Answer: First check for nearby aggressive mobs such as spiders or merms, or even pigs, and lure them to the Tentacles, and they should start attacking it. You can tell where the Tentacles are because of disruptions on the floor of the swamp.

Getting into the groove (Days 5-10)[]

By Day 9, try to have an Alchemy Engine. They are very important. Keep on gathering supplies. Also start catching lots of Rabbits for food and as ingridients for a Prestihatitator. With this, Nightmare Fuel can be made, and be used to create a Divining Rod, among other things. Also try to find Graves and to dig them up if your sanity is not too low. Get Gears for an Ice Box and a Divining Rod. Go to a Swamp and find an aggressive mob like Spiders or Merms and lead them to a Tentacle, and have them kill the Tentacle so it drops it’s Tentacle Spike, a powerful Weapon. (Note: Pigs are useful for this task due to the fact you can befriend them with meat, unlike most critters.)

Extra Credit

The following tips were shared by a reader’s personal experience with mountain survival…

“Techniques required by high mountains (over timberline) and low mountains (forested) are different. Much of your article deals with high mountains. In my wilderness survival experience, the big problem in winter isn’t cold, but wet. Below -10C it’s fairly easy to stay dry (ideally you have the right kind of wilderness & bushcraft gear to do so).

Near freezing, snow melts easily, getting people wet. With adequate clothing, staying warm is easy, if you can stay dry. In deep snow this requires outer wear that sheds snow, wear pants over boot tops to prevent snow getting in and soaking your feet. Clothing should be loose, and worn in layers. Avoid jeans. Usually too tight, and they soak easily. Nylon track pants/wind pants over fleece pants, or acrylic pajama bottoms work well. Acrylic sweaters, fleece, and a wind parka on top.

If passes are short, camp near timberline, and do the pass in a single day. This will allow you to dry gear out by the fire. If necessary, camp two days, and break a trail partway the first day, and return to camp.

Water – Most people don’t drink enough in the wilderness at the best of times. In winter it is hard. A large tin can and a coat hanger can improvise a bucket to melt snow. You need 2-3 liters a day. You will need about 5000 calories a day for moderate to heavy work in the mountains. Powdered juice, hot chocolate powder, etc make snow melt water more palatable. Anything with a high percentage of fat is good — summer sausage, cheese, nuts.”

Death By Hypothermia

One of the men, suffering from night blindness brought on by periods of severe hunger (which occurred prior to his arrival at the work camp) died that first night — simply because he strayed a few yards too many away from camp while collecting firewood and succumbed to the cold. Because of his night blindness (inability to see at night or even dusk deep in the forest when little light is available), he wasn’t able to make his way through the snow back to where they had gotten a campfire going, even though he was only 15 – 20 yards away. That is how quickly the severe cold of the Siberian wilderness can kill. His night blindness of course was too blame.

Recap What We Learned

** Know what flint is — either have a flint making tool or know how to find it in the ground. Every continent and every country has flint.

** Know what iron pyrite is and also how to find it in the ground. With flint and iron pyrite you can create a spark. Though a bow, string, and wood is a primitive method for creating fire, it’s a lot of work to produce that first coal using the bow, string, and wood method. Instead, if you can find flint (stones) and iron pyrite (stones) in the ground or along a river bank — or anywhere in the terrain — you’ll have the two materials needed for creating a spark. With just dry tinder you can get a fire going.

** When trekking through the deep cold, don’t stop to rest — not until you can get a fire going. The deep cold can cause a loss of consciousness and when that happens, death.

** Like primitive cultures that have lived (and thrived) in extremely cold climates at different times in history, pile yourself under layers — whether it’s clothing or simply animal furs and skins.

** Snow blinders (made from bark) will protect your eyes from both blizzard conditions as well as severe glare from the sun reflecting off snow.

** When there’s no time for hunting or trapping small animals, look for insects — many types of insects are edible. Before venturing into the wild (or simply flying a small plane over a stretch of wilderness), be sure to know which insects are commonly found in areas you’re likely to be in. That way you have a fast and nutritious food source should you have to eat insects in order to survive.

** Have a strategy for dealing with wolves and other dangerous predators. Though we didn’t see this in the story, if you can take down a predator (bear, wolf, lion, wild dogs, snakes, crocodile, etc) you’ll suddenly have food — just don’t become food for another predator in the process.

Why You Can Trust Us

Secrets of Survival has been around since 2002 (almost 20 years) and our survival knowledge is the real deal. We were writing and discussing survival and prepping before people even knew what the word “prepping” meant. We also preceded the trendiness of survival media nowadays… for example, we were arround before Bear Grylls filmed his first episode of Man vs Wild.

Our contributors and writers over the years have included survival experts of all stripes – including a Green Beret Special Forces Medic, a former Navy SEAL, a leading survival instructor who’s been featured on National Geographic and PBS. Every article is either written or reviewed by someone who is an expert in either survivalism, prepping, or homesteading (or all three) and our goal is to be as practical and educational as possible.

While some of our writers and contributors use pseudonyms in order to protect their privacy (never a bad idea in these times where out of control surveillance is a growing problem), you can trust that everybody who gets to write for us has been vetted for their knowledge and passion when it comes to survival.Click here to learn more about Secrets of Survival and our writers and contributors.

Can You Drink Water From A Cactus?

Unless you know plants and cactus species well and — better yet received first-hand instruction from a desert survivalist — only look to cactus as a source of water as a last resort. Though certain species of cactus can store a generous amount of water in their stems, they often have high amounts of oxalic acid. Oxalic acid — specifically on an empty stomach — is a fast way to get diarrhea. See: Can You Get Potable Water From a Cactus?.

Most cactus fruits are edible — for example, the fruit of the saguaro cactus has been important to Native Americans in Northwest Mexico and the Southwest United States for many centuries. When it comes to wild edibles though, always know what you’re eating — we can’t say that enough.

Survival In The Desert Calls For Research

Survival in the desert is a lot like survival in a remote area — be sure to do your research on any area you may one day find yourself in, before you embark. Talk to geologists, museums, ranchers and wildlife offices of people who know the area. Ask if they know if there are any underground springs or large bodies of water near the surface anywhere — and mark these down on your map — which areas of the desert do these underground rivers come closest to the surface of the land?

Study the terrain and vegetation on maps; notice lines of green vegetation that may signify a dry stream bed or that there is a shallow underground river.

A few deserts have major rivers that cut across, such as the Colorado River running through the Grand Canyon and into the Mojave Desert where it reaches in Nevada.

Building A Desert Shelter For Extremely Hot Temperatures

Because this shelter is going to call for some digging, this is one you will have to build in the early hours of the morning, before physical exertion becomes dangerous.

1) Look for a shallow area in the ground, between two dunes for example.

2) Dig a space deep enough for you to lay in about two feet deep.

3) Pile the dirt or sand dug from the trench around the top edge of the trench.

4) Use four sticks as stakes, planted at the four corners of the trench. Tie a corner of your darkest covering (tarp, sheet, blanket) to each stake, so that it forms a flat roof, over the trench.

5) Be sure to leave a few inches of space between the top of the trench and the covering so that air can flow.

6) Using four taller stakes and a white sheet (for reflecting sunlight) or a space blanket, hang a second flat roof a few inches above the first flat roof. (If you have nothing to tie with, use piles of rocks to anchor down the corners of each layer of cover).

Done right, the physics of a trench desert shelter are reported to be several degrees cooler than a simple shelter that only supplies shade. The white sheet (top layer) reflects the sun, while the black cover (bottom layer) absorbs your body heat. Space between the two layers as well as between the bottom layer and the ground allow for air movement.

This is a shelter for extreme desert conditions — sometimes shade may be all you need instead. Sometimes though, especially in temperatures soaring over 100 degrees, you’ll want to put more thought and effort into your shelter, remembering to sleep during the day and travel at night.

Brand Rating Method

We have a particular system with its own criteria for choosing brands that we would recommend to you. For more information on them, please read further.

Variety of products

The more extensive the diversity, the easier it is for a customer to make a weighted decision. However, many of the companies that we look through will not make it to our webpage.

Transparency, Accuracy, and Reputation

Transparency is all about the way the company operates and how open and comprehensive its work is for the customer.

Are they available only online, or do they also have a physical office?
How simple is it to access the information about the company and its employees?
What can a client find out about the administration of the company?
How quickly is the brand able to provide an answer to the clients’ inquiries?

Accuracy can tell you whether the company can provide a person access to the results of lab testing.

Can you find information about the contents of the products? If not, can you request it and get a positive answer?

Reputation is about the way the company is perceived among the competition in the survival industry.

Do they provide a guarantee on the product? Can you return it simply? How about a refund policy?
For how long has the company been on the market?

UX (User Experience)

Here are the metrics that we use:

Is it easy to access and use the website of the company in question?
Does the brand provide profound and verified information?
Can you say that the customer service workers are polite and knowledgeable?
What kind of method of communication is used: chat, email, phone calls? How fast is the reaction of the employees?
What is the duration of a shipment?

Survival Shelters & Staying Warm

This could be a very acute danger if you’re wet. There are some situations where the only thing that can save you is a 5 minute fire.

Could you get a fire going from scratch in 5 minutes?

Not many people could. Luckily, this is the less likely scenario. It’s more likely that you haven’t fallen into an icy lake. Maybe you just need to survive a night with cold rain in the forecast.

Your first need in a typical survival situation is shelter.

Don’t underestimate the need for shelter. Even in summer-time conditions temperatures can drop low at night. Add in a bit of rain and you have a recipe for hypothermia.

The best thing is to find a natural shelter. This could be a downed tree with dry ground underneath. Or up against a rocky outcropping.

You can enhance a natural shelter by leaning branches against the main structure and piling on debris.

The most important thing about a shelter is staying dry. If you can stay dry then you’re doing well.

The next most important thing about a shelter is insulation. If you can keep your body well insulated against the cold ground, wind & open air, then you’re doing really well.

So that’s number one. Find shelter. Stay dry. Stay warm.

Now onto water…

Early Morning Dew Provides Water

Another method to practice when it comes to finding water in the desert: Early in the morning, just before dawn, turn over half-buried rocks. As morning sets in, dew will collect. Be alert to dangers, such as scorpions, which live in a number of deserts, as well as dangerous snakes and spiders.

Turn over enough rocks and you may collect enough dew to get you by for the next few hours.

Dew can also collect on desert grass — run a towel or other cloth through the grass and once soaked through, squeeze drops of water into a water bottle. Collect as much as you can and squeeze from the towel into any containers that you have with you. You just might collect enough to get you through the next few hours — until you can find a spring, lake or stream.
