00:20Any man, no matter how big or brave,
00:24stand no chance without the proper weapons and inventory.
00:28Preparation is key.
00:30Arm yourself, master your weapon and study your tools and resources.
00:35Here, catch this.
00:38Rule number one in surviving on the surface or in transition zones is good mask management.
00:45Your mask is your biggest friend as you cannot breathe the toxic air outside.
00:50You can try, but I'm not sure green is your color.
00:54Beware that the mask will reduce your field of vision, especially when moisture appears on the edges.
00:59Your wristwatch shows the amount of air you have left to breathe.
01:04When breathing feels labored, check your watch and if needed, change your filter.
01:09Your second most precious resource after air is light.
01:14Your torch has limited battery life, so use your hand-pumped dynamo to power it.
01:20A lighter can be used to burn away cobwebs and light your torches.
01:25There are some places in the metro where you need to create pools of light to provide safe passage through
01:31the mutant nests.
01:34Your wristwatch also has a light indicator that will tell you whether you can be seen or not.
01:39I could use a good watch like yours.
01:41As long as your watch remains dark, you can move around safely.
01:44If you step out into the light, a blue light appears, meaning you are now visible to enemies.
01:51Now for the fun stuff.
01:53Guns from before the nuclear blast are very rare.
01:56Armories and factories in the metro supply cobbled together Frankenstein improvised weaponry.
02:02The brutal handmade submachine gun, affectionately referred to as the bastard gun,
02:08is a good example as whilst it overheats and isn't entirely accurate,
02:14it provides enough of a punch to clear a path.
02:17You can carry three guns at the same time, each fully customizable.
02:21Although very effective killing machines, all the guns will take some learning to get used to
02:26and to use them to the best of their ability.
02:30You need to study them, learn their strengths and overcome their weaknesses.
02:43To customize your weapons or buy other inventory items, you'll need military grade ammunition.
02:49Clearly there are no banks in the metro.
02:51Thus these special rounds have become the currency.
02:54Protect yourself by a gun!
02:57Survival in the metro is about always being prepared for battle.
03:02You need to scavenge for supplies at all times, prolonging your life that little bit longer.
03:08Whether it's filters for your gas mask, spare med kits or ammunition.
03:13Well Ranger, I hope now you are ready to help your brothers protect the metro from evil scum.
03:19You might think you know it all just by reading this little book.
03:22But no man has ever won a war by reading.
03:26This is not a game.
03:28Fear is in the past.
03:30It is all on you.
03:33Fear is in the past.
03:34You may be.
03:50Grazie a tutti.
