Read guideA short path from first run to a stable meta loop.
- 1
Learn the auto-fire loop
Move, dodge, and let the squad shoot. The first hour is about surviving Isolated City until dawn, not about perfect aiming.
- 2
Unlock a second and third survivor
Rescue teammates during a run and complete the Huntress, Ghost, and Medic milestones so later maps have a real squad.
- 3
Spend Training Points, then refund freely
Role Player, movement, and weapon damage come first. Reset the tree whenever a map or mode asks for a different shape.
- 4
Lock a three-person composition
SWAT plus Engineer plus Tank still clears most Default and Hardcore routes. Compare it against crit and ice squads before you grind ranks.
- 5
Push maps and 1.0 modes
Dawn unlocks the next map. Hardcore, Endurance, Boss Rush, and Bio Lab each punish a different weakness.
- 6
Track items, ranks, and official boards
Achievements still gate items. Ranks double leader perks. The studio Trello remains the cleanest public roadmap.
