Cataclysm Quick Tips

A companion series for Cataclysm University. This one features very short (2-5 minutes) strategy/tip videos for a wide variety of topics in Cataclysm. New players especially should find these helpful for early game survival.

Let me know what you think either in the comments or via my Discord channel. New episode suggestions are welcome.

I’m hoping it’s just my computer/feed, but the audio is glitching out every few seconds. :frowning:

EDIT-- was my computer/audio input. NVM!

Hmm…no one else has mentioned audio issues and I can’t find a problem when i watch the uploaded episodes. Let me know if it continues and which specific episode(s) your having problems with.

Turns out everything is glitching/is on my end.

I tried it in different browsers/on my phone, and even disconnected from my work’s wifi (yeah, shouldn’t be looking at this at work…) but the audio is freaking out on everything. not sure why my phone would do it, too, but maybe youtube is having moment…

Sorry for the false alarm!

Side mirrors must die!

This is a nice set of tips. I never knew about the inboard mirrors. Certainly worth Installing both inboard and outboard mirrors for the initial better visibility, then it’s not as bad when the wing mirror eventually gets knocked off? Just using up more materials, I guess.
