Getting Started

Quarantine-Z is a survival game. The goal is to collect loot in order to survive from other players. When starting, you will have no means of survival; no food, no medical equipment, and one weapon with little ammunition. Everyone starts from scratch, and for the very first time players this may be difficult for them as they do not know the map locations and where to find the best loot. Not having the right items will lead to a quick death by players, or the environment. It will take a long adventure to become experienced.

Food and Loot
After obtaining the basic necessities for survival, start by traversing the map in order to find loot. This will help figure out where items spawn, and what kind of items spawn there. Loot is spawned based on the building and area, meaning that some places contain a high amount of specific materials. Some areas have a wide loot diversity, such as cities, while some areas, such as farms, do not. Food spawns in buildings like stores, while guns spawn in buildings like houses.

The best places for loot are the following:


 * Paradise contains 3 military crates, a Police Station, and several apartment buildings that can contain large backpacks.


 * Airfield is one of the best places to gain loot, housing 4 military crates, 8 military bunkers, and a watchtower which spawns sniper rifles.
 * Oil Refinery contains two military crates and several small living spaces that include a fridge, 4 lockers, and can house foods.

Some second tier places for loot are the following:


 * Prison houses several snipers in watchtowers, as well as AR-15s in the front gates.
 * Police Stations are found in Lakeview and Paradise.
 * Lakeview houses a police station, and several food and clothing stores.

Some third tier places for loot are the following:


 * Redfield houses food stores, apartments, a car, clothing store, and various other stores such as the Hardware and Auto-Repair shops.
 * The Farm although a third tier loot area, houses a military crate in the Barn. It also houses one MVP-LC.
 * Campsite is mostly an area to farm backpacks, food, or clothing. MVP-LCs and M1911s can spawn there.

Players
Players are now the next thing to worry about. Players sometimes will show they are friendly by not attacking and doing another movement instead, like jumping or flashing their flash light. However, some players will attack on sight, so proceed carefully.

Make sure to keep some food and medical items. It is important to always keep hunger and thirst satisfied, otherwise damage is taken. Being able to heal whenever necessary is ideal. The most common healing item is a bandage which can be crafted by right clicking clothing and shredding them in the inventory menu.

It is recommended to keep at least 2 MRD's or equivalent and 6 purified water if you are planning on roaming, more if you are planning on camping. Try to organize your inventory in order to better manage your items, take stock of your supplies, and decide what to swap for new items. If you are confident in your gunfighting, then try to take down players in vehicles, as they are most likely to be decently looted, however otherwise if you hear a vehicle, hide. Make sure to manage bleeding by healing after being shot. Get your muscle memory down for things like healing, and remember to be very alert for enemy sounds, including swapping weapons, footsteps, looting, etc.

With these skills down, get to finding the best items in the game and have fun!
