I mean, who dreams about taking a shit with another guy?


The farthest I ever got was with a Golden Retriever pack. Oh man...we got up to about 86, 87 years. The world was a wasteland of dinosaurs--nothing but raptors and lions as far as the eye could see. My pack had grown strong, and they could fight bravely, but evolution simply stood against them. We couldn't survive. One by one, my brothers and sisters were consumed by the prehistoric terrors. Somehow, the years clawed by, and alone, in the dark, I came to Shibuya Woods. I snuck past the sleeping dinosaurs, hoping--praying--I might claim the territory, that I might mate and live on.

Inside an abandoned building, I encountered what I thought were chimpanzees. In the dark, I thought they were food, and foolishly, I lashed out. I was shrugged aside, and saw to my horror that I had encountered something far worse than the dinosaurs. They came upon me, and they slaughtered me in a second. A lonely, bleak end to a once proud dynasty of hunting dogs. Incapable of survival in this bold new Jungle.

Godspeed brave little doggies.

But yea, it seems unless you have like 99 generations or something, it becomes super hard to survive after 70+ years due to the things that start to spawn, I could only take out lions and tigers with a clean kill and raptors required a lot of effort to bring down.

So now that I have my swank gas mask, I'd like to protect it, would taking it off before I fight keep it in good shape? Or does it wear down regardless?

It will only wear down if you have it equipped and take hits. Even if it breaks you can buy more of them from the store now that you've found it, although they're pretty expensive.

This was definitely one of the hardest things for me. Most of the "capture the territory" type unlock challenges I cheesed by running in there with a fresh pack and kiting them away from the area. This works especially well in Yoyogi West since if you gather everyone up you can either run to Yoyogi East, take the north route and lose them between there and the south path back into the area and have relatively few animals to deal with and you can also kite them north of Yoyogi and lose them in the trains. Another option is to tough it out until you reach a situation where you have to take the territory and the food supply of the area is low. It doesn't happen often, but it does happen and it makes it a lot easier. Also you can suit up if you have good gear and go for some hit and runs on each pack as you work your way into the territory.

Ugh yeah, this challenge was a pain for me as well. Honestly, a lot of it is a matter of luck and having their territory be in a place you can sneak and move around in easily while they're (hopefully) distracted by other prey animals. If they're residing in a cramped and open area, your best bet may just be to restart. Jerky can also sometimes help you out in a pinch, but only sometimes.

Most of the equipment you find will also become available in a Store. At the beginning of Survival Mode, instead of choosing New Game, there should be an option for Store on the far right or something. You can buy pieces of equipment you've found with SP. Though, this doesn't include the Tuxedo and probably some other things. I generally avoided buying things because SP for unlocking later animals gets really high.

Are any of the dlc creatures worth it? I'm assuming they're all DLC exclusive and cannot be earned or bought in-game? Normally I'd say "no, 50 animals is enough for you" but that panda bear, giraffe, businessman and fat cat look might tempting.

Plus they have a toro plush costume, though that's free

I think the Robodog is the only DLC animal you can unlock by just playing. Everything else is something you need to buy. I am particularly amused by the Kangaroo. Running around as one is pretty silly, and there's also a random event where you can kill a Kangaroo Champion to steal his belt. The Championship belt is a Kangaroo specific item and makes you feel awesome.

There's actually a lot of free plushy DLC things. I'm a fan of the Loco Roco/Kulche one because the amount of them you get depends on the size of your animal, like getting five of them or so on a horse~

Most of the really good stuff can't be bought in the store, but you can keep yourself stocked on cat paws or whatever.

To my understanding the DLC robo dog is actually stronger than the one you can unlock.

The DLC animals are awesome. Giraffe is hilarious, Panda is swole as gently caress, and running around as a crocodile with a straw hat is great fun.

I haven't looked to see if the DLC's a different one, but there are two Robodogs you can unlock. Could be a third one, though.

Do the two ends of the map connect in some way? I.e. is the map a circle or a path with separate ends?

I've about maxed out what I can do. Got most of the challenge items, topped 100 years (barely....I was slaughtered by neanderthals the moment I woke up), beat the hell out of story mode. I think it's time to get the DLC animals.

Sounds to me like you're not exploring enough, there are very easy entrances into the sewers such as from the suburbs and woods.

You have to be a small animal to get in them too. Cats can do it.

Is there a list of things that you don't ever get told about in survival? Things like metalgear-hiding in the boxes and someone posted that you can use your packmates to carry animals? My gas mask doesn't seem to stop me from building up toxicity, or my raincoat in smog/rain.

Also, am I supposed to be absolutely swamped in homo erectuses around year 110? because I haven't gone far enough in the story mode? I'm at around chapter 9.


Edit: how do those people at the top of the leaderboards with 999999 points get there?
#2:Sometimes I hear crazy music like an ice cream truck is in the background but I can never find the source of it. Is this a secret or just a pachinko machine that survived the apocalypse?
