Tips and tricks
- Sound tells you where an enemy is before you can see it. Headphones help more than you would expect.
- Learn the spawn points. Most levels reuse the same few entry points, and knowing them turns panic into routine.
- Move between shots. Many shooters make you an easy target only when you stand in one place.
- Keep your cursor or crosshair roughly where enemies appear, not on the spot where the last one died.
- Because this is a Zombie game, never let yourself get surrounded — always keep an exit behind you.
