Surviving cataclysmic events is always hard, especially in the gaming world and without some good help and a solid strategy it becomes even harder. Surviving is the main focus of Naughty Dog’s The Last Of Us: not only Infected will do everything they can to make sure you won’t be able to escape the infested United States but also soldiers and hunters will be getting in your way.
Understanding the many gameplay mechanics of The Last Of Us is going to be one of the most important things to do in the game: fighting all enemies in the game will only lead you to an early grave. Stealth is the key and prior information on the enemies’ capabilities and positions will prove to be more important than ever.
Luckily the game provides you with everything you need to avoid encountering and fighting Infected. Even if you’re discovered by them you may still be able to escape from them without getting damaged too much.
In The Last Of Us Survival Guide we will be covering a few tips which will help you in your survival endeavors by analyzing the most basic gameplay elements of the game. Once we’re done we will be delving further into the game. If you’ve been having problems with the new Naughty Dog survival horror game, you’ve come to the right place.
Avoiding fights is all well and good but you may probably not be able to do it every time. When having to fight enemies, stealth remains one of the best options, taking down enemies individually without being seen: you can also drag an opponent and finish him in a quiet area.
A good way to kill enemies is by throwing bricks or bottles: once you see a green circle appear on them you can just press R1 to throw the item for a 1 hit kill.
When fighting multiple enemies the best way to survive is by using one of them as a human shield and then fight. Using a brick or a bottle in the middle of the group will also allow you to gather them: use a molotov on the group and watch them fly.
If you don’t have any other option other than using guns, make sure you always aim for a headshot to save time and save bullets. After a gun fight make sure to reload all your weapons.
