First-day route

A short order of operations before the desert night hits.

  1. 1

    Patch, then breathe

    Install the latest Steam build. Day-one hotfixes already touched collision, V-Sync, and the story beat A Roof Against the Wind.

  2. 2

    Secure water and a roof

    Thirst and weather punish open camping. Place a well, walls, a door, and a Homestead Stove before you wander far.

  3. 3

    Farm while you scavenge

    Corn, wheat, beans, and barley grow through four stages. Plant early so harvests arrive while you mine and hunt.

  4. 4

    Treat Husks as hearing, not health bars

    Rye Fever remnants are blind and sound-sensitive. Walk, bait, and pick revolvers or shotguns for the range you actually have.

  5. 5

    Invite the posse last

    Online co-op supports up to four outlaws. Learn the homestead loop solo, then share barns, bounties, and night watch.
