Overview
Now, most of us here are legacy veterans, but some of us are new players, this is a guide on how to not die as fast as I do, after hours of crafting shivs from cans in BTE Legacy and stabbing that comdom captain to death and taking his position, I transitioned to steam Barotrauma as most of us had. This is a guide based on my experience and how I didn’t die half of the time.
Introduction
Okay so you stumbled upon this guide somehow, alright if you’re a newbie and just bought this random ass game and want to know how to play, first of all ALWAYS use legacy controls, the new controls and keybinds suck ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for me. Second of all, if you see someone with a weird ass chestburster flying out of their mouth, don’t go near that person at all unless you want that thing too.
Third of all, do not trust anyone in a clown outfit, even if they are tooting a bike horn at you asking you if you want some fuel rods to blow the reactor up.
Actually Surviving
Alright so what you wanna do at the start of the round is grab a diving mask from a nearby storage container, get that ♥♥♥♥♥ and put it in your toolbar, second of all, find bandages and a flashlight, you’ll need it if you wanna survive, don’t hesitate to “borrow” oxygen from dead people if you find them, they won’t be needing it and you will be wanting it if half the ship is gone. Oh yeah a diving knife is also kinda helpful if you wanna defend yourself, get two of those and duel wield them akimbo and you can cause a nasty cut in someone. Medics are your friends if they aren’t confirmed traitors, if you see a traitor, knock them out if you can with a stolen stun stick and throw him out the air lock without a diving suit, he ain’t gonna be bothering you no more. If you manage to break into the ship’s armory, take whatever you want, I’m sure security don’t care.
Now, time for some situations.
Hull broken and creatures on board, numerous people are dead: Make your way to the nearest armory or get your own weapons, beat the absolute living ♥♥♥♥ out of anything that tries to stop you. Get your weapons and kill all the creatures on board, then patch up the hull with a welder.
Anything that harms you physically: Slap some morphine and a bandaid on that ♥♥♥♥♥ and you’ll be fine.
Anything that harms you through fire or oxygen loss: Oxygenite my man, oxygenite. Bandages and ointment for burns though.
Traitor or a husk: Use your chad arsenal of weapons you “borrowed” from the security guard, beat down the traitor and handcuff him, then eject him out the airlock, for husks you wanna just beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of them.
Conclusion
♥♥♥♥ anything up that goes near you or presents a threat, Stab that comdom captain, do whatever you want, go masturbate in the ballast or just in general be a threat to the security of the ship.
