Congrats but I bet less than 1% of the entire online playerbase gets to see your finished road sections. I personally already built 90% of all roads and I bet few players see them finished in their own world even though their chiral network has already been established. No way they could just let thousands of players interact with each other within just one map. One week from release all roads would already be built and new players would never even know you had the option to build them in the first place. I really wonder how the system selects which players get too see which structures from certain other players. I'm sure there has to be a limit.
Its done by the strand contract system, as you level you have to choose which players your network is combined with and in turn they choose who theirs is, so its like a web of liked things by liked people laid down, the same way your footsteps when walked over becomes a pathway.
@@Novasky2007 What if you don't make any strand contracts with anyone? Which structures would you be able to see? And if you make a strand contract with someone, isn't that someone who you have already intreacted with before by using their structure? How were you able to see it without a strand contract in the first place?
You are making connections all the time without realizing it, once you get to a certain level your given acess to a list of all the players paths you've interacted with so anyone who walked out of bridges at the beginning roughly when you do is an auto Strand, everytime you walk thru an online sign follow footprints or use a ladder, or something they placed is within earshot when you shout will respond and the playerbase is added to your network. Then you can strengthen the bond by choosing to contract with a player on that list which means their structures and cargo become prioritized when your game searches the list of online games. You see its not done in realtime, its like turnbased email. Between save points and logins and logouts.
One of the best aspects in the game. Very satisfying knowing your structures may help the community . I never rush with this game, I’m taking my time and really enjoying every last bit.
@@cantseeshadow i understand. im barely on chapter 6. im like really explorin and just recyclin and collectin lost cargo. i know it may not mean nothing but shit. im unlockin shit that's not supposeto be unlock yet. but yea. i play like hour. hour half tops. got a 8hr day job so yea. plus hey im in no rush.
But where's the fun in that? Yeah sure, it will be fun for a couple of hours but as time goes by you'll get bored. As long as Im not done with the main story, I will stick to hiking on mountains, grinding materials and driving for main roads.
That's what I've been doing! I also collect materials from every stop as I begin to run out. They eventually restock after some deliveries or resting at private rooms.
Leslie I feel like your opinion about this game has changed since you uploaded the video about it being boring. Would you agree? Keep up the good work!
ye mate it defo change, the first 10 hours are very rough IMO and the cut sceans are too long throughout for me but its definitely a quality game and the traveling from A to B never got boring for me
the thing im satisfied with is that i build some bridge to a MULE camp with some generator near at the craftsman location and im getting really good likes from nearly anyone and im really satisfied with it. Plus the safe house i placed in Wind Mile (which is close to the BT's territorrie sadly) and i really hope some of you who is still playing this game can find this helpfull and thx for the likes i get from you guys its really satisfing to help other as much i can :)
I'm at the terminal looking at my cargo menu. I have some metals I want to recycle and a few ladders I want to put in my private locker. Why do I have to go back to the main terminal menu to go to the recycle menu in order to reclycle my metals and then go back to the main terminal menu to go to my private locker in order to put away my ladders? Wouldn't it be easier to do it all in the same cargo screen? just like "square" for reclycle and "circle" for private locker etc... Da fok were they thinking? Makes micromanaging your cargo a nightmare. Definitely the worst thing about this game.
Highlight everything you want to recycle, choose offload, highlight everything you wanna keep choose place in locker. Then when you circle out of your locker and go to recycle just hold square down and highlight everything on the floor and hit recycle. Hold X to confirm. The ground is highlighted green and always the last section above confirm.
I think the point is so you are conciously choosing what to recycle where and when. The game is all about optimizing logistics. I know what you mean though it feels very clunky and unintuitive if you try to fight it and use it like you normally would a menu. Once you figure it out a bit better you may understand why it is like that.
@@Novasky2007 Are you one of the developers defending your own creation perhaps? A simple "are you sure you want to recycle these" screen would have sufficed as protection. I think the choice was made to make players spend even more time micromanaging their stuff. As if we don't have enough buttons to press to skip things. Don't get me wrong. I've got 90+ hours now and i've loved every minute of it. Some things could have been a bit better though. But I guess nothing's perfect.
I've played for a bit and I'm struggling in finding the game fun. The game doesn't provoke me to continue forward. I hope it gets better. I'm still near the beginning after reaching wind farm.
I really don't understand the online building. I built about 90% of all roads getting most of the materials myself. Am I supposed to believe out of thousands of players I'm the only one that finished those? I bet there's thousands of others who actually finished most of the roads in their own game. Are players divided in different servers? Like sessions of 20 players per server? If I do the calculation and all those players are actually building within the same map, there should be thousands of ziplines, generators and ladders allover the place. It would really clutter up the map. So I'm sure they must have some limit as to how many structures can be built by everybody simultaneously as other player structures do not affect your own chiral network.
Ava just once somebody finished a highway before me, I think it has to do with unlocking the chiral network in the area first before finishing road. I kept finishing the highways and had the same question and decided to hold off on finishing a highway then I unlocked a chiral network in a different area and it unlocked a piece of someone else’s unlocked highway.
@@yaroisawayoflife that is what I'm trying to understand also I wish it was a video out there on how these servers work, I go to build a few bridges along the way, set npc's to the chiral network and it's a few already down after I can see other players bridges or roads, I'm also getting the same likes from other players too I wonder how many servers are there
@@yaroisawayoflife The part of road someone else finished... did that happen to be the first part of road starting at Lake Knot City? Cuz that's how it was for me. Probably the first two parts of road top right of the map. It gave me the sense that other players had already started building the roads. Which I enjoyed. However very little progressed from there. Maybe the developers did it automatically to give you the sense of online play? Cuz honestly... now that all roads have been built, what would be the challenge for newcoming players? Personally I connected all areas to the chiral network first. As I saw the roads were still not built I started gathering materials myself. Even though I was sure many players had all their roads already built as I had seen on UA-cam. However, I noticed how most road parts had nothing delivered to them yet even though all was connected to the chiral network. Am I supposed to believe out of thousands of players I'm the first to deliver? I don't buy it. One thing's for sure, not the entire playerbase is actively working in the same session. But I doubt the developers will elaborate on how the system exactly works because it may dissolve the "illusion" of online play. So there must be limits to the completed structures you can see by other players. Which is kind of understandable or there would be a zipline every 50 feet allover the map. :p Still, kind of sad though, knowing that only a few players will be able to see your own structures. :( Btw. What's up with some road parts being built with just about 400 metals, ceramics and chiral crystals while others take thousands of those materials to complete and are not necessarily larger constructions?
There arent servers, its just scanning the games of the players you make contact and strand contracts with then places those liked structures into the same place in your network. Its just an illusion. Then if you use that structure it sends a like to their game which then shares it across their network of players.
Do u have to take metals/ceramics/materials with you from a distro center? Aka carry mad weight on your back or can u just pull from your total amounts when u open a PCC?
@rob13589 looking forward to that point. The trike helps but still gotta walk alot, getting tedious. I know it's a "trekking simulator" or whatever but I want to driveee, man. Get around faster, maybe even get a weapon besides blood and shit grenades
They are both completely different types of games. Days Gone is your way more typical narrative driven open world game. But death stranding is so much fun and unique and different. I would honestly recommend both to you.
I've been single handedly building the highway outside Lake Knot forgot all about the storyline XD
Lol that's my plan. The building is the funnest part. The story is kinda dumb minus cliffs story.
Lol same. Each time I unlocked one of the peepers I stopped progressing story and getting roads completed lol
Nova Sky right on brother 👍 good to meet a fellow builder.
I hope the roads i built are still out there somewhere in someones Game world. I sure got a lot of likes evertime people used them.
@@Novasky2007 m8 they sure are helpful man, make it way easier to get my truck around and stuff
I spent 6 hours last night robbing mules,emptying every structure and built at least 4 road sections 😉👌🏻
nice! its the most fun you can have on the game up to now for me

I played it late so it doesn't look like my structures are helping anyone :(
I lost the sense of time playing this game, is somewhat zen to me. working on building doing the deliveries, enjoying the views!
Just checked yesterday, one of my ziplines had 3039 likes hahaha... I was so happy :)
I just finished building an entire zip line network connecting all of the facilities in the Eastern Region. I never use vehicles anymore lol.
im currently workin on that
LJ S It was fun for a couple of days then I got extremely bored- haven’t played since. I want to though

As long as Im not done with the main story, I will stick to hiking on mountains, grinding materials and driving for main roads.
The key is finishing the game before getting bored, if you explore too much build and unlock things too soon you will get tired of the game
I play offline and it gives me a sense of experience doing everything for myself
Absolutely loving this game! Just started it a couple weeks ago and can’t stop playing.
It makes me so happy when someone uses my structures :)
I finished all the roads yesterday! It felt like such an accomplishment but I was kinda bummed there was no trophy for it 🤷🏽♂️
I just take a car and fill it with metal and Ceramic , build almost every road i yesterday
That's what I've been doing! I also collect materials from every stop as I begin to run out. They eventually restock after some deliveries or resting at private rooms.
@@PoissonedApple1 yea that has to be the easiest way 😃 Gets it done really fast
Im playing again and i have an awesome group of people i share with. We rebuilt the entire road

LethalLeslie nice one mate. I’m early into the game and your videos have been very useful. Much appreciated.
@@LethalLeslie1 yeah the story and ESPECIALLY the dialogue isnt all that good. It's about building pretty much.
I have a question dose the thing's me or other players built stay forever or in time will it get distorted ?
the thing im satisfied with is that i build some bridge to a MULE camp with some generator near at the craftsman location and im getting really good likes from nearly anyone and im really satisfied with it.

can we build a spaceship in death stranding?
I mean unger hinted it!
Went and built the road outside of port knot city and ended up getting 6000 likes which got me like 40 bridge link levels in one go
I've played for a bit and I'm struggling in finding the game fun. The game doesn't provoke me to continue forward. I hope it gets better. I'm still near the beginning after reaching wind farm.
Everyone says the exact same thing. Get past wind farm and the game gets more fun.

you can use a truck which helps and get the materials from mule camps
@@LethalLeslie1 can't use trucks yet, I'm almost on episode 4...somewhere in the middle of 3, Port Knot and the place after that. But thank you

This or days gone?
Both
this first

Days gone better
They are both completely different types of games. Days Gone is your way more typical narrative driven open world game. But death stranding is so much fun and unique and different. I would honestly recommend both to you.
