Now YMMV, and Obvious Beta is about supposedly finished games released in a buggy state; actual alphas/betas don't count

* BewareTheLiving: While the zombies are a major thorn, they're nothing compared to the likes of other player survivors on the map, who are generally apathetic at best and unpredictable and immediately hostile at worst. In fact, more than half the time, it's not a zombie or a wild animal that does you in, but a gunshot or a BoobyTrap from a more experiencde or better prepared player.

* DaylightHorror: The game during the daytime, which is when most players are likely to be playing. Especially so with high dynamic range lighting. Going out of a building or treeline into direct sunlight will briefly light-blind the player, particularly if they face a sun low in the sky. Likewise, going from outside indoors will briefly plunge the player into darkness. Trying to stick one's face out of cover to see if the coast is clear when one hears zombies about can be a tense experience.
** On the other hand, without a flashlight or night vision goggles, playing at night is all kinds of ''terrifying'' since the default vision level at night is slightly further than your own nose, but you can still hear the zombies, and you know there are players out there that can see you. And if you're in the forests and hear wolves howling in the dead of night without good gear...

** Another weapon (before it was cut) was the bow and arrow; it was extremely cheap to make (only 1 long stick and a rope (that can be made from 12 rags)) and its ammo was practically infinite with a never ending forest you could make arrows out of, the weapon made no rattling noise when moving, firing it made next to no sound and if you had good aim you could 1 shot pretty much anything (even fully geared players). The Dev's have said they were going to bring it back but so far it hasn't been re-implemented.

** Speaking of hunting and fishing, simply spending most of your time in the forests is a brilliant way to avoid being shot, all trees in the forest are bulletproof and escaping a sniper by retreating into them is a great way to get away from them, meanwhile defending yourself in the woods is paradoxically even easier, the trees act as great cover (along with the bushes) and somebody chasing you can be given the slip fairly easily by simply hiding behind a tree, where you are able to ambush them.
** Camouflage of any type (even just wearing brown and green clothing) is extremely useful for avoiding fights all together.

** If you have a knife (or other blade) there is nothing stopping you from skinning and quartering a survivors dead body leaving them as a mess of giblets on the floor.
** If you have a shovel you have the option to bury dead bodies; far from a full funeral service but still nicer than leaving it out to rot.

An Axe To Grind is no longer a trope
Changed line(s) 117 (click to see context) from:
** AnAxeToGrind: The hatchet can be used to harvest firewood, cut items, and open tins, but can also be equipped as a primary weapon. Considering how easy it is to find in common areas like barns, and that it is completely silent, kills in one or two hits, and has virtually unlimited uses, it can be a freshly-spawned character's best friend. A log-splitting axe and a more powerful fire axe are also available, and some of the better melee weapons.

Wise players would take a couple of spare wheels, spare radiator, spare spark plug and battery, and the water to refill a radiator, just so you don't end up in the middle of nowhere with a broken vehicle.
