Bastille Armor is well-suited to players that tend to stay fairly immobile in combat, crouching behind cover and popping up to fire off a volley whilst enemies are reloading or out of position. When the player does expose themselves from crouch, they have increased defen

Players that prefer to stay mobile in combat might like to take a look at the Falcon Armor set. This is an armor set in Once Human that is aimed squarely at players that keep mobile, and use the dodge roll skill a

Once Human is a free-to-play horror survival game that incorporates a variety of gameplay styles, such as competitive PvP and narrative-driven mission progression. The game unfolds over a season divided into six phases, with each phase introducing new gameplay elements and opti

All players have access to the Raid Armor set from the very start, all they need to do is unlock it via a Memetic. This is a significant upgrade over the new player armor that everyone has access to for f

4: 3 seconds after the bastille status ends, the player will gain 1 stack of armor, up to 60 times. When in bastille status, each stack of armor grants the player a shield that equals 1% of their maximum health. When the shield's value is depleted to 0 while in the bastille status, the player’s vulnerability +

Brookham is a level 9 polluted POI, meaning that it is the perfect place for new players to farm acid if they need it. The random loot is also useful to new players, although less useful once a player hits around level 15 in this survival shoot

The underlying fear means that whenever I find someone else in the open world, I latch onto them. It doesn’t matter what task I’m doing, I’m just gonna follow this other person. Companionship is safety. We might not speak the same language, but in this moment, we’re just two weirdos with butterflies in our backpacks, killing zombies and collecting loot. I’m on a PvE-only server, so thankfully no one can shoot me on sight. I like this. In truth, Once Human is a game best enjoyed with some friends, but thankfully, there’s usually someone else running around completing tasks alongside

As a level 13 polluted POI, High Banks is another great place for newish players to farm acid. And as with Brookham, the gear and weapon crates will provide useful loot for players of the correct level. And once again, high-level players will get little benefit from farming such a low-level POI and are better off just leaving it al

When you’re first creating your character in Once Human , be sure to pay attention to the Fitness scale in the Body tab. Your character’s weight is not just about aesthetics; it directly affects your character's stats and abilities.

When choosing a server (PvE or PvP) at the beginning of the game, it’s important to focus on the Day or Phase the server is currently in. This would give you a rough idea of how much time you have to progress with your character.

The R500 Memento makes a great sidearm in Once Human . For players who like to carry a pistol to finish off enemies quickly, rather than waiting to reload their primary weapon, this weapon offers some additional utility as w

Once Human is a thrilling open-world survival RPG set in a post-apocalyptic world infested by an alien creature called the Stardust. The game begins with you waking up as a Meta-Human in the middle of nowhere, disoriented and alone, but with a primal instinct for survival taking hold.

Performance has been fine for me, but then I’ve got a top-of-the-range computer. A few players have reported high CPU temps for the game, as well as stuttering and rubberbanding. Again, the game is free-to-play, so the best way to check the performance is to try

They aren’t ordinary zombies, though. During my 15 hours with the game, I’ve fought zombies with lanterns for heads, zombie demons enshrouded in tarpaulins that act as armor, zombies that spit at you, floating zombie bugs, a giant zombie boss with balloons for a head (pop the balloons one by one to take it down), and regular old humanoid zombies that are somehow the most terrifying of all. There’s an impressive level of mob variety in this game, and each area I unlock seems to have more and m

Deviations are stored in a special Independent Secure Unit on your base. Just like any creature, Deviants have preferences that affect their mood and effectiveness. By providing them with things they like, such as Music, Flowers, Bright Lights, Starchrom grind rewards etc, you can keep them happy and efficient.

Hunger and dehydration will deplete your health and stamina , ultimately slowing you down and leaving you vulnerable. Make sure to always have food and purified water on hand whenever you go out exploring.

And the Terms Of Service and EULA issue, about the game asking for your government ID, address, and more personal details, is right to be met with some criticism. But NetEase has released a full statement on its privacy conditions, and generally a lot of this is par for the course for modern games. Still not brilliant, but the game isn’t spyware, at le
