Death Stranding

If it wasn't for so many clicks to get through a simple delivery, it'd be perfect

Just reached chapter 3, time to start rebuilding...

I took your advice about stealing a mule truck, loading up on materials from the base and going straight to road building, very satisfying :)

A24 to produce live action film of Death Stranding

It'd be pretty hilarious if they did keep the cast the same except just recast Troy Baker with Pedro Pascal.

Good to hear there's a live action adaptation, because I was thinking about trying this again but hearing that there's still lots of building required is putting me off. Thought maybe everyone else would have the place sorted and I could just power through the story... I obviously didn't get the joy ye are from simply walking and building roads. I wanted to know where the story was going, but the gameplay stopped me, especially the social media aspect of it. At least I'll get to watch it. Would be mad though if they don't get the same cast, because it is basically already a movie.

Zip lines were key and I sort of gave up on roads 3/4 way through i think. Never bothered with much else I think

I'm still in the first area doing deliveries between Capital, Distribution, Wind Farm etc. I have the items for the port but am reluctant to go there yet. Do I get to come back to this area and continue the deliveries if I go to the port?

As mentioned you can come back. I tried to clear all deliveries before moving and they just keep spawning. Next section is the best so wrap it up and move on asap is my advice.

These mules are a pain in the hole. I'm at their first encampment at Lake knot. If I clear them all out do they stay cleared or respawn?

Anyone know why I cannot add metals to finish building a road? I've enough crystals and have gone slightly over by 20 ceramics but still need 230 metals. I've more than enough in my inventory but they're greyed out and won't let me add them.

I can't quite remember but can you only build a certain amount of objects only if there's enough bandwidth in that area? The more missions you do, the more bandwidth to build structures so maybe that's what's blocking it?

Should I be worried about putting resources into things that are decaying? I've just started the Mama section, I've repaired some roads but have largely ignored everything else like watchtowers etc. Will this become much of a problem?

I think degradation is more for the players that come after you so the server doesn't get full of stuff. So it doesn't last forever, I can't remember a time when something I built degraded to the point I had to rebuild it. So I'd say plough on.

There is a Mule camp, over to the left once you land on the second area, if you can knock them out and steal their truck you can pile it up with stuff from their collection and make good early progress. They continuously collect boxes too so you can come back.

But in general, doing the deliveries (and having the vehicle to carry them) gives you large fastest route.
