That is DEFINITELY not the time to spin around in a circle trying to figure out where you just got shot from because you’d better believe they’re going to plug you a few more times before you figure it out. If someone takes a shot at you, and you’re not sure where it’s coming from, just run into a building, take cover, and try to figure it out while you’re bandaging. To steal a page out of the Highlander’s book, there can be only one. The unfortunate part is, even those who choose to team up early on will have to turn on each other at some point. Most of the shootouts I win, I have a distinct advantage of complete surprise. No matter how players look at it, 170 people slugging it out in the H1Z1 Battle Royale game mode doesn’t leave a lot of hope for the individual. Of course, thanks to the magic of the ever-present gas cloud, it’s not always possible, but early on, if you’re taking long range fire and you’re in an area where you can duck out and take cover, do so.

My best bet is to try to stay in urban and suburban areas where people have to run up stairs, open doors and come to me. I can’t possibly fight that, so I find I do much better when I can fight them close up. I can barely see them at range, and they’re taking my helmet off at 300-400 yards. The headshots people are clipping me at in King of the Kill are breathtaking. If not, you can hit the gas and be on your way before any other players can jump you and you’re two to three klicks away before they can say “boo”.

The chances of it being looted are slim, and you can simply slow the vehicle down to check to see if there’s anything useful lying around the campsite.

Another good trick is to simply drive around the countryside at full speed until you see a campsite or trailer all by its lonesome.

With a vehicle, you can literally out run the gas clouds as they close in around you, drive out to places where on-foot players are sprinting head long away and take your sweet time doing so. You have a much lower chance of running into someone as the other fools are murdering one another, so let them. You now have the luxury of waiting for all the other peons who are less than lucky with finding vehicles to all murder one another, and then drive to places far away and loot at your leisure. Why? Because you now are driving around in an armored vehicle that makes you nearly invulnerable with enough gas to last you well into the final stages of the game.
