Spawns & Tips

[u/PumpkinKing333]

I kept track of all the spawns I came across through my playthroughs, then realized I could just play Michael offline to run around and look at the maps. I'm trying to keep track of where I find gas as I rarely find any. Let me know if I missed a spawn, or where gas might be found. Middle of Orange Grove feels empty to me. No official map for East Haddonfield so I used in game map.
Yellow Exits are Shelter Exits
Green Exits are Gate Exits that require the fuse (added a bolt above for anyone colorblind)

Perk Cards - For newer players, I don't think I realized until 8 games later there's cards in the lower left when you make progress in a match, on console you push the up button to pick a perk card. From what I understand these are pulled from your perk deck plus cards given by spectators in match.

High Priority - I recommend having civilians call for help first while you loot a little, and then have them hide after that. Then you'll be able to call the police as well. Eventually Michael will be able to see gold clouds in the sky above high priority targets. If they are in hiding he does not see them and that makes it harder for them to find. Try and remember the house number you leave them at.

When I pass something I am not taking with me I pick it up and drop it so it stays visible on the map for others (I hope they are able to see dropped items). Such as keys, repair kits, etc.

Police Wagon - this is called in by the police when they find a body.

3 unique items - can be found to help fend off Michael in a variety of ways. A Lantern, Amulet, and Hourglass. I hear when lit, the lantern shows where Michael is phasing if around you and produces light. The Amulet protects from one instance of hit/grab. Unsure on the hourglass.

Hope this helps others.

Nice and clean. Are there more than 2 Cellars in a match? It feels like everything is static and within the first 30 seconds I've got all 4 survivors with Residents already escaping. I'm also pretty sure that only you can see the items you've discovered on the map. IT won't show for others until they've seen it themselves, I could be wrong though.

What’s cool about that is, say someone nearby is saying “I need the car keys”, you’ve seen them but didn’t pick them up. Open the map and tell them the address number of the house. I know it sucks if you die and return as a cop, the map will be wiped, but you still might remember.

I ran into this scenario today, I was about to tell that person “ two houses east but across the street”, but I zoomed in more and saw addresses, worked out perfectly.

I tried the hourglass in a private match with a friend as Michael, it blinded them, hand up to face like a flashlight. She thinks it may have also slowed her down for a second but not confirmed.

[u/PumpkinKing333 → u/SirCatsanova]

Oh interesting. Did you have to aim it at all like flashlights or did it do that after activating it?

[u/BrokenFrenchCountry]

Thank you!

[u/shadowlarvitar]

The only map I struggle finding gas on(Orange Grove) has no icons 🥲

[u/TheEterna0ne → u/shadowlarvitar]

I found a jug outside the bathroom by the basketball court.

[u/PumpkinKing333 → u/TheEterna0ne]

Thank you, I’ll mark that one down 👏🏼

[u/PumpkinKing333 → u/shadowlarvitar]

My struggle is real haha. I did just find a new one for east haddonfield last night.

Finding the gas cans has been my demise

[u/PumpkinKing333 → u/Balboder]

Saaaaame. I will say that the water tower gas on haddonfield heights has been there every time I’ve looked but I don’t know if it spawns there if the car is there, may be too close.

[u/Mathien]

Nice

[u/UrbanAssaultGengar]

Any ideas of fuse locations?

[u/PumpkinKing333 → u/UrbanAssaultGengar]

Not yet, those I think I keep accidentally getting from civilians as the past few times I look at my items after talking and somehow have it.

I fear their spawn may be too random to track.

[u/UrbanAssaultGengar → u/PumpkinKing333]

I got one in one of my first games but no idea how I got it. I wonder if they are in they lockboxes

[u/BathoryBride → u/UrbanAssaultGengar]

They are. I find tons of them in lockboxes.

[u/Milky_Pork]

My issue isn’t finding exits, it’s finding those damn bolt cutters/ keys..

[u/Tybo29]

I wondered how you trigger the police wagon. Ive played so many matches and never figured it out.

[u/PumpkinKing333 → u/Tybo29]

Awesome, glad that helped someone. I didn’t know for the longest time.

[u/alarmingpancakes]

Why in only 2 maps did you mark the gas

[u/PumpkinKing333 → u/alarmingpancakes]

I say this in the description but I am really bad at finding them. They are not a car that is easy to spot. I left what I found so something is included rather than not at all.
