When I was playing dying light with friend we discovered that every timw you go to sleep and wake up air drop will appear, if you don’t know air drops are pretty rare and if you collext them and deliver to one guy you will recieve lots of xp, we used that multiple times to unlock grapling hook very early. Air drops also gave lots of medicine which was hard to get in early game and that very helped us
Oh yeah, not the only game that did that.
I can’t remember the name of the game, but it was a 2D platformer/shooter. There was a level which had a 1-up item, giving you an extra life, and a BUNCH of point-items. So, run in there, grab all of it, die, and restart the level. Didn’t lose a life, but got to keep all the points. Score!
