I really wanted to play this game without searching anything on KZfaq and just figure it out on my own but a downside to this game for me is that it was SO unforgiving that way that I just honestly wasn’t having fun at a certain point. Your video helped this become a fun game

My personal survival tips not factoring pre set locations but more so core game play is this. 1.Always and i mean Always keep bandages on you as well as at lest 1 tobacco bandage and 1 or 2 maggots. There is nothing worse then dying from poison or getting infected wounds because you lacked bandages. 2. Avoid eating while dirty to avoid getting parasites go to any water source and select the wash self option but keep an eye out for caiman/alligators. 3. Don’t sprint, Trust me no matter how observant you are you will eventually set off a jaguar or run into something willing to bite or sting you. Walking is always the best speed 99% of the time. 4. If you see a jaguar, dont take your eyes off it and slowly back away pull out a spear or bow and aim for the face a well placed shot will instantly kill them and any sudden movements or sprinting will set them off. Their ai can be stupid so keep in mind at times they may just bumrush you regardless but they are the biggest reason not to sprint everywhere. 5. Make a bow, as simple as it sounds the bow is hands down the strongest weapon and can one shot everything but caiman in one shot if a head shot. All you need is one long stick and some rope. You can find feathers from birds nests, skinning tribals or from the many dead birds lying around. You can also just kill birds for feathers as well. 6. always make sure you have enough energy to set up a bed and possibly a fire, passing out on the ground is the fastest way to lose sanity and die sense you will likely get worms which drain sanity insanely quickly unless removed. You can remove them with bone needles or fishbone needles but remember to always have bandages because removes worm locations can get infected which is a whole new level of cancer to deal with when you have no medical supplies. 7. Keep an eye out for turtles they can be killed for their shells which can be used as a fairly decent sized bowl for making stews or cleaning water they are also a risk free source of protein. 8. Keep in mind fires will go out without cover above them so when making your first base set up a basic foundation frame and add a leaf roof then make your bed and camp fire. 9. Always keep an eye out for palm trees for their coconuts. Getting a coconut canteen is a must sense it allows you to transport water and if nothing else you can break it for coconut bowls for an early container to purify water in next to a camp fire. 10. avoid combat with tribals for the first few days unless your using a bow. Melee combat is a huge risk and killing them is generally not worth it sense the meat they drop cause sanity loss unless you find a tribal fire starter or of the few unique structures that teach you new blue prints you get basically nothing for killing them. 11. You can make mud based structures by first picking up mud from any river or water sorce this will teach you most of the mud based blueprints most importantly the chest so you can store items. But you can also eventually get the shower and water purifier as well as the charcoal furnace and mud stove which is a functionally better fire place lest in my opinion. 12. to cure fever take any bones you find and mix them into a bowl of water to make a bone infusion which removes 2 levels of fever its also a good source of nutrients and is generally better then just drinking plain water. Same goes for most foods, they can be added into water to make stews which are generally better. 13. The best bandages are honey bandages you can deal with most wounds with them and it even makes fairly decent food. The best way to get honey is the get apiaries or bee houses by using a torch to go to a bee nest and grab the queen but for early game you can just huck something at the nest and wait for the bees to disperse and then grab the honey comb that falls to the ground. 14. Keep all metal esk items like cans obsidian and metal ore. They can be used to make metal tools arrows and armor. 15. Make armor, They will reduce the chance of lacerations as well as reduce the overall damage you take. The easiest armor to make is leaf armor which takes 2 rope and 1 banana leaf but you can also make bamboo, stick and bone armor which all have the same recipe but cost an extra 3 sticks bones or bamboo depending on what armor your making. The best armor is metal armor but sense its very late game the best armor with mostly minimal effort is armadillo armor. You will need the bigger armadillos which will sprint away from you but if you sneak around them all it takes is one well placed arrow to the skull to kill it and it will give the second best armor in the game and you can get it day 1. The recipe is 1shell 1banana leaf and 2 rope. These are mostly general tips but will help you with most of the core gameplay. keep in mind the main threat of green hell is rushing around blindly. But if you avoid rushing and keep some backup medical supplies on hand you will find the game is infinitely easier then it first seems. Always check your water and watch for the magnifying glass so you know when to remove leeches and deal with injuries. Never ignore injuries they will only get worse and don’t be afraid to set down multiple bases

I got the vr version and have played 12 minutes so far. I have died to poison mushrooms, been attacked by spiders and snakes. And a croc chased me away from the base I set up. This game is awesome

I found it very easy to get turned around and lost. Following a compass not my strong suit. 😆 so my fix was placing racks but not building them. That leaves a nice bright white reference that has led me back to my base. Very helpful for me starting out.

Missed one of the most important thing. 1st Mega tip! Build Armor ASAP go for stick armor first then bone. Helps you avoid injuries from attacks and keeps rashes, scratches and abrasions out 100%! Craft: 2 rope 1 bananaleaf 3 item of choice (Sticks, Bone, Metall, Armadillo) You get massively better durability for each one of the same type you craft. 2nd tip. Keep clean and eat blue mushrooms or funnel mushrooms to keep parasites away. Dont actually need to cook anything or drink clean water with this trick. just drink dirty water and eat a mushroom. 3rd tip. Put a headset on and listen for threats while traveling and keep some tobacco leaves on you for when you eventually walks into venomous threat. 4th tip. Bone soup is op. + stuff on drying rack/smoker/stone ring never spoils aslong as you dont pick them up to inventory. So eat directly from them instead and it will never spoil.

Not bad my man but if I may, allow me to add a couple of things you missed out. 1. Cooking soup in a bigger pot, turtle shell or metal pot, will give you two drinks of it if you are fully hydrated when you drink it. That's twice the bang for your buck. You can also let the fire go out or better yet, put it out with water from the bidon (so you can light it easier when you want it again, no collecting sticks) and the soup will stay right there for when you need it. It's a great way of having food ready to go and it never deteriorates, the only drawback being you can't take it with you. Having multiple cooking fires at a permanent camp is a good idea for this reason alone. Cooked meat is only good to save wasting raw meat if you don't have enough pots or dryers, or if you have not found a pot of some sort yet, though if you filled everything more useful up you can likely let it rot and harvest for maggots if needed. If you want to explore, dried meat (from the dryer) is the thing to take with you as it lasts several days. It used to be that drying meat on a dryer in the rainy season (out from under a roof) preserved that meat a lot longer, though it obviously wouldn't dry to become edible as fast or, in full rainy season, at all. Not tried that trick for a while, not needed to, so may have been fixed. 2. Brazil nuts' most important feature is they are preserved as long as you don't harvest them from the shell. Once you harvest them they will start to decay and do so faster than the palm nuts so don't, not until needed. 3. Bananas are not only useful for eating but harvest one for seeds if you plan a base with farm plots. Also, let them rot and harvest them for a larva if you have excess. Larva are good fishing bait. Rotten fruits all harvests into larva, rotten meat into maggots. Maggots can also be fishing bait or used to clean infected wounds. 4. At the fishing dock, the rusty machete can also be found in the blue crate on the floor between the hammock and the table. If you do not take an item like the rusty machete, it will despawn eventually, never to be seen again. The weapon rack would be useful to make but unfortunately, since I previously played, the camp where I distinctly recall finding that blueprint is no longer there. Oh well, I'll find it again eventually. 5. Fever can be cured, or at least helped along if it's bad, via soup made from the large bushy plant with red tipped leaves. It's been a while so maybe other plants too. I used to keep a soup made from that plant in a pot on a fire at camp, as per point 1 above, for when I got fever. Waiting to brew it takes time, time you probably won't have if the fever is bad enough and your stamina almost gone, especially if you also have to light a fire, which takes stamina. 6. You never covered bones but you probably should have, given how useful they are. They can be turned into soup that can sometimes be your only source of fats. And it's a medicine too, food poison cure IIRC, man I really should pay attention to that since it's new, least to me, don't recall it doing that previously. Harvest a bone for bone needles, for removing creepy crawlies from under your skin, or craft the needle to make a bone hook, for fishing or to craft the food dryer made of wood. 7. You showed it but never actually covered this either but fire goes out in the rain, obviously. A really useful beginner tip, perhaps the most useful, is build one under cover. Sometimes that means building a roof but if near a POI, just search around for cover there as it works to keep the rain off too. Similarly, inside caves and under overhanging rocks keeps the rain away too. Tree foliage does not keep rain off fires. 8. Finally, something else useful to tell beginners is how trapping animals works since it is really unintuitive as a game mechanic. First, never build one more than a few yards away because it'll spring but catch nothing. This likely has to do with how the game loads, likely in chunks so while it knows the trap is there and will spring it, it puts nothing in there. Second, building one where animals wander I find works (watch where prey walks, they have a fairly predictable path when not running from you, and stick it over their trail) but it doesn't actually catch that animal you see. It seems to be that the trap simply tests for what's around and fires when you aren't looking, inserting said carcass in the trap while the animal itself continues to wander. Which brings us to third - never watch a trap. Well, you can, but the animal will just avoid it and the trap will do nothing. Even turning your back on the trap can spring it if ready and that includes fish traps. Fish traps (the stick ones at least) in other respects don't act like land traps, they can work no matter how far you wander off.

After trying yesterday a blind first attempt of the game, with only my experience from the long dark, the forest and the unreal world, I must say that those tips were much needed. My next run today will be way more successful. Thank you.

Thanks for the tips. Didn't even realize the large stones could be harvested into regular stones. So much that's easy to miss in this game.

Another two tips: If you’re in a pinch and have no fibre or a birds nest to start a fire (kindling), you can HARVEST the moliniera (yellow), tobacco (purple) and lily (pink) flowering leaves to get fibre (kindling). The pre built bases (drug lab, fishing dock, etc) have a calendar on a wall with a parrot or macaw picture on it. You can save your game here and don’t need to rush to build something to save your game.

Honestly this feels like one of the most realistic survival games and I really appreciate your video, it’s definitely gonna help me not die

My girlfriend and I have been playing and we died every few minutes, now we are actually having fun haha.

The most important thing if you're a begginer: Don't run. Walk and listen.

I'm definitely gonna watch this when I start with Green hell! Thanks man and keep it up 💚

Who else just bought this for ps4 and is extremely confused from playing

I'm playing this game for years now and even now I manage to find some caves and other things that I missed in the past. Green Hell is forcing you to never put your guard down or you will die horribly. Since you are basically on foot all the time, the game area is huge and the best solution is to have 4-5 large homes on the map and to build temporary camps wherever you can, which includes at least one frame with roof, bed and small fireplace. It is great to leave some soups, clean water and food that cannot spoil just in case if you get to the camp in the middle of the night...

Thank you ma man! Just got the game and was looking for a newer guide. I subbed ♥️

This game makes stranded deep and the forest especially, seem like a tutorial. I'm playing green hell on story and I can't barely get away from camp before having a life threatening situation. Tough game, still having fun tho

Great guide. Gets straight to the point with clear and useful tips.

Thank you man this is definitely going to help my gaming I hate how I die every time at five minutes into the game I’ve yet to get into the game because I die every single time and I don’t wanna turn off all the options so it’s too easy and boring but this is gonna definitely make the game exciting again for me thank you

Subbed. I look forward to more videos. Just picked up green hell for my switch! Excited to dive in. I love survival games

Thank you. The site locations is super helpful! Great job. I'm watching all your vids now.

I based my new gaming pc purchase on green hell specs and I finally am starting to play it! I played the tutorial and a little after and im decent at survival games but this one is damn good challenging. I LOVE these tips and got them organized on my notebook to start getting better and maybe have friends join later on with me being their guide 😁

Just started playing the game after a good year of having purchased it on E shop and I can say this is a great buy worth every penny thank you for taking the time out to create this video. Have a good one !

Tip: the spawns are glitchy sometimes. Run past an area (2 full stamina bars worth) and come back, plants and shrooms will spawn in. I play on console, this is a must for me.

Excellent guide my friend. Psyched to start playing this.

You forgot bone brew. Does not give as much as meat soup, but you get a lot of bones from kills (or dead animals with flies). You don't want to eat human meat, but bone brew made with human bones is completely safe and does nothing to sanity, and it cures food poisoning. On top of that, bones never expire, so you can load up your storage. Eat meat, but have a massive stockpile of bones for winter. By far my favorite food in the game.

My friend & I started playing this! The tips are super helpful!!! Thank you!!!

Really help, the best video for green hell!! thank you.

Good video for sure. A lot of solid info on the game for sure. Thanks Mann

Great video mate, keep it up 😊 judt tried GH last night with a mate... Great game.

Nice deep beginners guide. Thank you!

Thanks 4 the tips! You have a very professional sounding voice when it comes to these types of videos. I hope you get a lot of success in the future. Subscribed!

Nice guide, thanks!

Awesome video. You explained things very well. Thanks, this really helps.

Challenging game. Died o lot already...going crazy (insanity) in the game. Fun to play. Thunbs up, man. Really nice video.

Great stuff appreciate the tips 🤙🏻

I played this last night for the first time and it had me on the edge of my seat!! Fun times can't wait to dig deeper into it

Great tips, thanks.

Thx for the video. It’s helpful for new players.

This was super helpful! Thank you

One of the most engaging survival games I've played, and I'm not the type of gamer who only plays games for its difficulty (which this game delivers). It's also one of the most beautiful.

I'm about to start my adventure so all this is useful for me, thank you 😊

Wow bro. Thanks... That was really helpful... Keep up. 👌🏻

Despite not being a horror game, this game terrifies me and gives me so much anxiety and it's so fun because of that.

I just started this game; this is all so very useful. Thanks!

I’m a bit late to the green hell party but I just got this for £2 on the switch store, really want to get into it and these tips are great, literally didn’t know about breaking down stones, going to craft a bow tonight, I’ve figured out the water thing with the coconuts but definitely needed to hear about all the plants and what they do

this helped a ton thanks!

I am a new player and this was very helpful, thank you!

Nice informative guide!!!

I’ve tried to play this game without any tip videos but my brain would scatter all over the place and not know what to do first 😂. Thanks for this informational video.

thanks for this friend!

Also I subbed, great quality.

Was hoping to learn on my own like I did with the forest and other survival games it's not that simple way more mechanics and systems then I expected thanks for the tips great video..

Dood. You are aweeome. Truly helpful vid

Dude@ Unforgiving is a nice word when it comes to this game. I died at least 5 times before the 5th night KEKW. I will not give up.

Great video for starting out!

Great Guide, thank you.

Great video, just researching before I embark on my first green hell outing

I bought this game on Steam (years ago) but never really had time to get into it. Now as a full time stay at home mom, I have more time and today I just bought it off Nintendo E-shop. (It's on sale for $13 for the next 13 days) You literally don't know how much you just helped me. Thank you! 💕

Thank you 👍

Thanks man, my first 3 hours were brutal, finally built a hut to save. Will find some of those plants for different dressings. Didn't watch for the locations, didn't want to much info. Great tips, great game.

I just had to grab some mud to get the recipes..... nice thanks for saving me hours trying to find clay blueprints

I should've watched this before we faced the wild.. lmao great video!

Thanks a lot for this usefull video.

Just got the game and i already died 50 times. I shouldve watched this first. Thanks!

I started this game 2 days ago and I started not knowing anything and started on the second hardest difficulty, me and my friends were actually kicking some butt until we started going crazy 😂

Just snagged this, the long dark and stranded deep on switch. You just helped me survive soo much longer man

I don’t like survival games but this one right here is amazing , started playing 2019 , never beat it but I started again this weekend and I’m not stopping untill I finish the story 😂😂

Great help thanks

I just bought the game 12/28/22, and your tips are xtremely helpful, Thanks man.

Got this game on the Switch for £2 and will start playing it as soon a check a few tips.

Really good tutorial...Strait 4ward and too the point with No drama....

Great guide! Thanks! Sub'd!

This some good stuff , I just started playing green hell today and this helps a lot because the tutorial didn’t really explain weapons and everything.

Thank you bro

Wow really thanks for this guide. I died A LOT and not figuring what is the basic how to survive this game bcs wow this game tell you almost nothing you can do. Even when i had enough and using trainer to cheat my survivalability, i still really hard to make houses or weapons to keep you away from those worms inside your skin. Glad your video explain what can i do with this game...

doing the story mode rn on vr needed something like this was trying to craft stuff but i was doing it all wrong just aimlessly wandering around the place haha

Thankyou:)

Started a normal story game, died before I could even get my footing. Loaded up and tried to build a shelter to save the game (lesson learned, right?) 2 jaguars show up as im almost finished and one of them persued and beat me up, I bled out before I could find the yellow flower plant for bandages and didn't get to save >.< . Now I'm here :)

Wow these are helpful

Well the tips are good needed the one on the grappling hook but question do you necessary need all the food bars up aka carbs fat and protein or can you just keep one if not what happens if u let one drop?

I wish you could carry soup around with you! I can't tell you how many times I've dragged an empty bidon over to soup hoping different containers would hold soup 😂

Cheers dude, I just downloaded this on Xbox today 👊🏻

Thank you for the tips much appreciated just got the game for xbox and died so many times lol

This is really helpful if I ever got Hungery but had no food I would just eat it raw

Thx 🙂

thanks just about to start this game 👍

I am mostly into “cozy games” so this is a bit of a departure for me but I like survival games. I started in story mode (walk in the park mode) hoping that the tutorial would teach me how to play. I have learned a lot more from just trying stuff in survival mode.

Another tip about shells, if you open your inventory while looking at the shell on the ground, mouse over the shell to see the exact quantity of water in the shell. This works with water filters too.

Underrated content creator

Thanks for the video. It's crap that there are so many plastic containers lying around but we only can get these designated by devs for collecting water. Otherwise - great game.

Thanks for this USEFUL guide. I litteraly had no help or any indication on what to do, and your guide helped me ALOT. Thanks for this.

Man you found like 10 stones at the start I haven’t found one yet! Having hard time to craft tools and the further I adventure out I run into tribes that kill me…

Willy bandage ha funny!😆

I just started playing about 2-3 days ago and decided I would do my own Survival attempt. Spawned in on a river bank with a nice little clearing that I started setting up my base in and from my base, I can see the Fishing Dock/Camp like on the other side of the river a good stone's throw away. Went there and got a fishing spear, broke down the water purifier and took that back to my camp, and found an old rusty machete to boot.

I try by my self but it was very hard thanks for the tips

I hope they do a jaguar rework to make them more escapable. kinda annoying when (aside from killing them with a spear) its impossible to avoid them. you cant even escape by swimming into the starting area pond, they just walk on the pond floor and attack you the minute you leave.
