15+ Crazy Tips You NEED To Know in Sons Of The Forest

hello guys and welcome back to another sons of the Forest guide I'm absolutely loving the game and I've got plenty of content prepared but in this video we're going to be talking about various Advanced tips that I don't think you'll know or at least a lot of these I don't think you'll know so we're going to jump straight into it but if you do enjoy this video if you find it helpful please do hit the thumbs up and why not subscribe to the channel as I look forward to covering this game a lot over its period of release the wanted to really talk about was how you can scale areas you can see this if you jump this is a bit like the Bethesda hack you can jump up and pretty much get anywhere that you want using the jump providing the wall isn't vertical so as you can see here we're making our way to the very top with relative ease and the second tip is when it comes to sleds they will stop you from taking any full damage it doesn't matter if it's a slope or a vertical drop it will block all damage that you take and to demonstrate the vertical Cliffs we've got this one here we're going to grab our sled jump in it and fall no damage nice you can also use these Sleds on dry land as well as the water providing it steep enough the seasons do tend to last on normal at least five days at a time so if we place down a little tarp here and we can we can sleep for a few days let's check out how many days we're on okay we're on 19. I'm going to skip to Winter and then we'll see how many days it lasts so we should have winter on day 31. so you can see in the trees now that it's Autumn and there we go so day 31 is currently snow which means the last day of snow should be day 36. so we're going to skip through again but do bear in mind when doing this that if you're not doing normal or if you've got custom lengths which you can do then it will be different for you but if you are in normal and it comes to Autumn you can see the trees have turned on orange auburn color you'll know that you have five days to prepare before it becomes winter and obviously the enemies are going to be more aggressive in Winter as well so today it should be the there we go fantastic it is now spring don't you just love those pesky little birds seagulls well if you shoot them notice how we get feathers from them but we can also along with skinning them we can hit them again and that will give us some more feathers and you can do this two times great way to harvest feathers if you're struggling to find them for those of you who don't know it's not really an advanced tip it was something that should have been in the very first rendition but we can now add hotkeys from one to zero um for various items so for example here if we wanted to have this as an item we can press two and this will be equipped to hotkey 2. this to three for example and now we can swap between them the next tip for you is if you hold down control you can sneak we can tell this because we have the little stealth eye to the left of our strength meter this is great for sneaking around enemies but more importantly if we head out into a pond or the ocean here we can sneak up on fish so as you can see we are sneaking up on a fish here and we just hit it and we've got it on this Sphere for us really easy way to catch fish sorry mate here's another tip for you notice how we cannot grab the radio well if you want music at your base all you need to do is speak to Kelvin and ask him to get the radio and to follow you which brings me to another important tip if you're looking for some music to chill to while you're playing this game do check out my Spotify playlist because we produce our own music and if you're a content creator you can use it in your streams and in your YouTube videos without worrying about copyright it's all free to use check the link in the description below how was that for a Segway here's another tip for you we're going to place down really quickly a log storage now there are two things that we can do with this uh the first one you may or may not know and the second one I'm going to share with you and you possibly won't know this is probably the biggest thing that I've just found out thanks to a very kind comment in one of our previous videos if we ask Kelvin to go get logs we can ask him to fill the holder here he's going to grab various logs that are around go on and you'll notice that he will plop them in here you have to keep him well rested otherwise he becomes very slow but you can see he will fill this up for you so this particular tip was shared in the comments by Dean Savvy and I'm very very thankful for them sharing this one so if you guys have your own Advanced tips that we don't cover make sure to put them in the comments below you never know how helpful it's going to be for someone but here we have a kelvin's been working he's placed a few items in the log holder down there but we're going to grab the Rope gun here and we're going to aim it so that it's close to the log holder from here we can place down the zip line and then if we add the logs to the zip line they will automatically load into the log holder how how incredible is that if you did find that tip useful do put in the comments uh thanks Dean Savvy it helps a lot I'm sure they will appreciate it comes with the use of sticks now if we place these in the ground so that they're standing you can create a fence out of them but what the game doesn't tell you and you might know if you played the forest is you can grab yourself an ax and from here we can use that to be to create a hedgehog Spike and if you walk into it it's gonna hurt you can also reinforce this using the stones so in case you didn't know this is a really good way to improve the defensive features of your base here's one for you if you're very precious about your bases you can destroy them with axes however if that's not your cup of tea you can go over to your options go across to gameplay and here you can turn structure damage off and this will render your buildables impenetrable which is perfect if you don't want to have to deal with protecting your base from mutants or enemies or just trolls online sometimes you need to cut a log up and it can be really difficult to find this spot because cutting the logs as you can see here with there we go we can hit them and they will cut into pieces however if you want to do this easier place the log in vertical fashion and then from here we can quite easily see where the chopping points are if you want to place a marker on this map you can't really do it yourself directly onto the GPS however you can see we have one a little bit in this direction as green the way that you do this is by grabbing a stick once again we're going to pop it in the ground and from here you're going to grab any excess GPS locator that you have and you can place this down where you want um I haven't worked out how to change it so that it stays a different image on the GPS so I don't know if that's a bug for the time being but that is how you can mark your map the paths in Sons of the forest are a great way to get around however they often lead to various Villages and so you'll find the cannibals quite often Patrol along here so if you're trying to avoid cannibals if you want to build in peace try and build further away from the road get off into the Wilderness and you'll find yourself much more you'll find yourself in a much more peaceful environment at least for the the first few days you probably know this tip already but just in case you don't every time you jump into the game once you reload it you'll find that all the items that had been scavenged before will be replenished but a good tip when it comes to building your base is to build nearby to one of these Scavenging spots so that you have free ammunition medicine and food nearby whenever you jump in which can just help you give you a little boost and the last thing that I wanted to share with you was just two log hacks which are currently doing the rounds and will probably be patched very soon the first one if you place the first one if you place a log horizontally on the floor you can then grab a stick and pick this up and then all you need to do is knock this over and it will spawn two logs that one unfortunately didn't work very well because the second log spawned under the ground so you may have to move it across slightly or find another location there you go but another one that was suggested to me today was through the use of These Blueprints if we grab the small log cabin for example um and if we're pretty close to it we can back off slightly you see this Red Cross if we press C in the right location you can see that we are giving ourselves an unlimited amount of logs unfortunately we are taking damage so what I would recommend with this is that you place maybe a log or two down and you stand on that so if you do want to do any creative building this is a great way in which you can do it I'll probably do some in the upcoming weeks I've got plenty more plant uh but there you go another tip for you but there you are guys I hope you enjoyed this video if you did please do hit the thumbs up and if you want to see more don't forget to subscribe we've got plenty more comment content coming up over the next few days oh goodness me it's special thanks does go to
