How to Play as a Survivor in Escape Mode
Playing survivor in Escape mode is not actually that difficult:
At the start of the match, you may want to look for Weapons and Items. To help yourself, Press M to display the Map, you will see Symbols indicating buildings, Players, Exits, etc..
Once you done with arming yourself, look for Extractors, which are dooted around the map. In Those, you must activate them and complete the objectives, which can vary between
completing fuze boxes to fueling up a generator with Gasoline Cans.
Extractors give a certain amount of darkness, depending on the rarity of it, being common the lowest and very rare the highest for extractors.
Once a certain amount of time passes, you will hear a siren indicating that the exits are about to open.
In case of luck, if your one of the top 3 players with most darkness, you will transform into a hunter, with the objective of defending one of the exits.
Otherwise, you’ll have to escape thought them, but be careful! once you get near an exit, which are shown on screen their location, watchout for nearby hunters!
How to Play as a Hunter in Escape Mode
Being a hunter in escape can be a very rewarding experience. Murdering people and stealing alllll that hard earned darkness is something to relish. But first, you got to find them, and then you gotta kill em. Here’s how:
First off, the moment you convert, you are going to want to use your dark sight, bound to the F key. This makes you go much faster and will highlight the rough locations of survivors across the map. Look for the blotches of color on your screen. The more red and loud they are, the more darkness that person has. Move towards them until the blot of color covers the ground. That area is where the survivor is. Now its time to track them down. Use the tracking tools your hunter has, cover large ground, check dark sight to make sure they haven’t run. If they keep running, move into dark sight and try to listen for their footprints as they run, then come out and give em a nasty surprise. If they are staying in the same spot, and not coming up on your radar, check the hidables in the area.
Of course, in escape, survivors may not go down without a fight. If the survivors are in groups, or have good enough weapons, they may choose to try and fight you. A foolish notion, here is how to deal with such pesky survivors:
If the survivors bring your hp down to zero, you are forced into dark sight for around 10 seconds. If this happens, don’t attack right away. Stay in dark sight and heal, while trying to stay near the survivors by listening for their footprints. Once you are full, try to single out a single survivor, and take them down, then go into dark sight and recover your hp and suck up the darkness they dropped. Rinse and repeat. In addition, make sure to use your offensive equipment, such as your dome, your harpoon gun or your mobility to cause problems for the survivors. The fisherman in particular can cause major problems for survivors, as he can out range them and out damage them.
And finally, do keep in mind, not every hunt will end in success! But that’s ok! Simply bide your time until your corruption once again reaches 100 percent, and strike. Oh, and try not to die in the mean time!
How to Play as Survivor in Last Man Standing
Playing as survivor in Last Man Standing can be very challeging:
The Objective here is, as the name says, be the last one alive.
All survivors spawn in one point.
After you spawn, starting running in any direction and be on the watch for the corrupted orb, which will spawn randomly.
If your not lucky and do not be the one to pick the orb, fear not!
You will want to look for items and look for fuse boxes that get highlighted a bit after someone gets corrupted.
In this boxes, you have to click the right numbers to pass to the next stage
Once you complete the three stages, you will complete the fuse box, which will drain 25% of the Hunter corruption rate
If you manage to be on the Top 2 as a survivor, you will 1v1 the Hunter.
At this point, Weapons will spawn. Grab one, quickly!
Now all you gotta do is Fight! Be the winner so you can win LMS!
How to Play as a Hunter in Last Man Standing
you have found the coveted O R B in last man standing! Now you can finally wreak some havoc upon the heads of the infidels. Here are some tips and tricks to maximizing your murder spree!
Firstly, and this is the big one, defend your fuse boxes! If survivors do these, your time as killer will be reduced significantly! Make sure to keep an eye on them, make use of your domes/sonar/jack boxes to keep survivors away! Also, you are informed when a fuse is being worked on, so make sure to strike fast!
Secondly, don’t forgot to check hidables! It takes only a second to seach em, but these little buggers make survivors immune to your tracking abilities, so clever survivors will make use of them. Make sure to drag them out and beat em down!
Third off, watch out for tasers! If you see a survivor has one, try to zig zag and move in an unpredictable fashion in order to throw them off and make them miss! And when they do, give em a good shellacking!
Here are some hunter specific tips!
Scientist: Use your dome to force people to be stuck in the zone! If you place it right, people can be stuck inside the zone within your dome, and will die a slow and painful death! You can also use the dome to block off fuses and exits to buildings!
Fisherman: Place your sonars in between fuses that are close to maximize their effectiveness. Place as many as you can, and don’t forgot to charge your harpoon up by holding RMB, otherwise it will do no damage!
Stitches: Place your jack boxes by the fuses to put survivors off doing them! Or, alternitavely, place them in known hiding spots so you can track pesky and un-creative survivors down! Finally, use your mobility to reach vantage points to get a birds eye view on survivors!
