 So I have had 3 weeks early access thanks to THQ Nordic and Experiment 101, and today I bring you guys things I wished I knew before playing, basically tips and tricks to help new players to this game. How's it going people my name is DPJ and if you enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps out and if you like what you see I want to see more Biomutant be sure to subscribe. So Biomutant is an open world game full of many different individual systems, there's plenty of aspects to this game to learn and loads of things for you to do. Today I bring you some tips I have learned which will no doubt help you out with your time here while playing, especially within the early stages. Okay so when it comes to starting the game and picking what breeding class you think might be best to play with, I will say that after playing early for 3 weeks and using every class quite a bit I will state this isn't something I would worry about too much as when it comes to what the actual best class is I don't think there is one. And after a couple of hours playtime and a couple of upgrades all are equally as powerful in terms of their own right. And if I'm honest they ain't all that different, yes each certain class offers different benefits but within that true end game it's more about how you build your character over how your character starts out and the way in which these characters can be built up. Your starting points don't really affect much and I believe the fact of Experiment 101 knew this and made starter classes not too far different due to when it comes to unlocking things for everyone into the game, players may want to spin the other way. So yes if I knew this when I first started I wouldn't have picked the scythreek as my saboteur right now after learning about this game's level of system is somewhat equally as powerful or not far behind when it comes to side powers and abilities. So yes although individual classes do offer slight benefits it isn't that different so I wouldn't worry about it. Another thing I know people will want to do is have their character look in a certain way. Now you may know you can mutate your character when you create them to fit a certain shape or size adjusting the base attributes. Some people may want to go full strength but don't want their character looking like a chicken breast. Well little did I know that you can actually have your base stats put into one place and not worry about your character's shape as once you are into the game you can actually change the way in which your character looks without affecting those attributes. This is done not long into the game here obviously because it's early access I can't show you that right now but yes guys like I said I wouldn't worry about your character's mutation in terms of the way it looks and its shape because this can be adjusted later on. So this game has a pretty depthy crafting system to it from weapons to armour and everyone knows this. Now my advice you will be don't hold back when it comes to crafting and building your character up. I did as I was hoarding many many materials thinking something important was going to come along that I needed my materials for. This was a big mistake and if anything guys it helped me back. I should have spent materials earlier crafted weapons and just played the game the way it should be played. The thing is the more you actually play the more materials you come across anyway and because each material is maxed out at 99 hoarding them is pointless so have fun craft away and make the game a little easier on yourself stop hoarding. So early on you come across an item which is basically a campaign item used for going forward progressing the item is called the old world clunk fist. Now I thought this was an item needed to break down walls to help you progress and although that's exactly what this is I didn't expect nor did I think it would be an incredible early game weapon too which it is. I carried on using my standard weapons on my saboteur and only really used this when I needed to smash through walls. That wasn't until my third or fourth short playthrough where I decided to just see what this was like within the battle and it surprised me it is incredibly powerful it has amazing area of effect attacks and also a few range attacks too it honestly made the game when playing much much easier for me. This thing can also be upgraded and made even better and if that interests you I have a full guide on my channel so do check this out. But yes the old world clunk fist you come across relatively early within the game you can't avoid it but when you do get this thing make sure you use it. Okay so moving on and one of the many forms of levelling your character up is earning buy all points and buying and equipping abilities. Buy all points come from buy all creeps found near contaminated areas and also download all sewer systems and also buy all containers. Now these for me are probably the rarest in terms of early gameplay but you do start to pick up a decent amount for everyone in. Now buy all points do unlock great buy all genetics aka abilities which you combine to your four main controller buttons and use them in the heat of battle and it's something I did early on with the points I had. But guys what I would suggest when thinking about upgrading your class is about the resistance here as these are super important as they allow you to explore more areas of the map. Now I ain't saying don't buy yourself abilities it's just with the more PSI points you earn early on you can have abilities anyway here so you wouldn't be missing out much in terms of having your character be as effective as possible. But the resistance is something to think about as like I said it means you can explore more of the map early on. Going to areas you will find that survive longer within said areas. So yes when it comes to those buy all points do think about your resistances. Another thing I will add as we are talking about resistance when you go into certain contaminated areas heat radiation by all hazard if you have no resistance to these you will die pretty quickly. But a tip if you find yourself a pool of water and stand in it your resistance bar will drop back down to zero and this is very useful if you don't have points to buy into resistances but need to travel through or into a certain area and you don't want to die. So yes guys if you find a pool run to it stand in it and you'll notice your bar drop. Now I did test this out within the cold area but under my testing it didn't seem to work maybe because the water is indeed still cold. Another thing I didn't pick up on straight away which helps a ton and saves a lot of time and it's something fun to work towards and that is within your inventory menu you have a tab called outfits here there are five presets presets which you can set yourself for different instances you'll come across while playing. What I am doing here to save myself a ton of time is setting each preset for a different resistance that you will need. Now like I said armor does off resistances too and setting up presets for this means that when you get into an area you need to explore or travel through you can quickly change your preset and you're good to go off the bat and also these presets can be used for many other things too so keep them in mind. Now something else I found extremely helpful and I don't notice should be a part of the game if you are in the middle of a river deep water and you cannot get out of it and you know you're on to die if you quickly jump then press start you can actually fast travel to any point you've previously interacted with therefore saving your own life. Now unless you jump you can't fast travel so you must first jump then quickly press pause go to the map and select any previous point you've interacted with because if you die you lose progress and restart from your last checkpoint so just keep that in mind as it really helps out and lastly guys sell and scrap stuff you ain't using early on this is another thing I didn't do I was just hoarding everything when in reality I was never going to use any of it because it was either a lower level than what I needed it was poor or non-rare quality so it's basically just junk. This you can sell or scrap earning green and very important materials green is used to obviously purchase items and consumables which will be very helpful to you and materials will indeed help you with crafting so yeah guys don't be a noob like me and hoard everything sell stuff you don't need which will assist you further and there we have it guys things you need to know before you play which I hope helps you out and on that note the end of the video has arrived if you enjoyed it leaving a like really helps me out if you're new around here want to see more by all means then be sure to subscribe and if you never want to miss a video upload you can turn notifications on by hitting that bell button but guys thanks as always for stopping by and hopefully I will see you on that next one
