Ok, so, I've decided to right this guide because of all the frustration of the unfairness that can be in this game. Hopefully this is helpful!


 * Saftey in numbers

Sounds like a pretty basic rule, because it is. Sticking with players that know how to survive and have decent equipment are the ones most likely to survive. DON'T go off " zombie killing " most of the time the reward for winning is greater than the money from killing. Which comes to our next rule.


 * Play it Safe

Most of the time the " most reasonable decision" is more bad than worse. Don't go out in the open, stay behind things like doors, most preferably metal doors. Zs  Will have a harder time detecting you and killing you if you play it safe. And if things get rough simply back away from the door and pop a grenade.


 * Grab and Go

If you don't want to be a zombie, you have 30 seconds to click " ready ", open the shop, buy necessary equipment, equip it, and browse for possible investments. It'll be tough, but most of the time you only need the following...

Medkit

Grenade/pipe bomb

Pills (if needed)


 * Think before Buy

Once you start playing R2D you'll want to start looking for a better weapon ASAP. But try to keep your buys reasonable. Research before buy! Don't forget to buy your guns by your play style.

Guns for starters-

M1 Garand- decent firepower plus ammo and damage, a little rough around the edges

Shotgun- GREAT close up  weapon, combine with stun weapon or shove for maximum efficiency

M16- great for experienced players low on cash, fires 3 round burst, kills zombies in one burst. Somewhat burns ammo.

Sniper- 100 damage, 1/10 ammo, slow reload. Combine with stun weapon or shove

Baseball bat- 25 energy, stuns zombies, great weapon for beginners and pros


 * Infection Mode

Infection mode is hated by all players that don't know what the live shop is and are low on cash. Mainly on this mode, you must survive for as long as possible with one twist, if a zombie touches you, you begin to turn. The ONLY way to cure yourself is using a medkit or pills. Yet again, if you don't know what the live shop is, you will hate this! First off, the virus spreads very slowly once you've been infected, so to conserve resources wait till it's absolutely necessary. This also keep a zombie infecting you right after you've been cured. But Say you run out of pills or medkits, your thinking, I'M SCREWED! But never forget about the live shop! Pills can be bought for 50 in the store which is located bottom left of your screen.


 * Evacuation/Survival Mode

This can be very tough maps, in this mode, the player must survive a full 5 minutes and a extra 1 30 secs during evacuation. There is only 2 ways to survive this, hiding and grouping! Usually survivors group around the area the evac lands. However, on some occasions, just follow the biggest group.You can also hide behind doors and uunusual  places.


 * Objective Mode

Objective mode requires to complete an objective to win the game. These are mostly challenging and dangerous. On Anti-Virus, don't put yourself in the cylinder, it looks safe, but it's targeted by zombies 24/7 to stop you from getting the cure. Try to come prepared on Objective Modes, they are usually long and grueling.


 * Things to Remember

This is just going to be small tips that you'll see around the game.

-when on oil rig, if you chose to hide in the warehouse, beware of zombies! You may end up being the last one left, and the zombies WILL find you! Most of the time it happens like this, bats break through the glass and began swarming you, zombies WILL began to break down the door. To solve this problem, throw a grenade or pipe bomb at the door and blow it up. Quickly close the door behind you to try to contain the hunters or bats inside. Then, run to the evac and spray and pray.

- If you plan on using turrents in-game, bring a wrench. This will allow you to fix the turrents when they run out of ammo.

-beware of vans! On some maps, vans are commonly used as troll weapons. Watch out on Blox Cast, you will be knocked off the building and die. To counter this effect, stand on ground above the van.

-to perform a double jump, Sprint and jump at the same time. This occurs a random, 80 percent of the time. So don't expect it to work every time.

-knowing where med boxes are is crucial to your survival. Know where every single on is on every map,but beware other players will race you to them.

Hope my guide helped! I may give away my roblox username later on, but I'm not so keen about It.
