Bike in midair during gameplay

I kinda giggled when i came across this bike in midair. My guess is sit's on a bridge with a player i havent linked with yet. I miss gaming. Currently my ps5 is having hdmi port repaired. I was careful while i had it and im not too sure how it had some damage to it. So hopefully within 3-4 weeks i get it back and i can continue playing my game. I live in a remote place so i had to mail it out to get it repaired

What's with the jellies? In multiple playthroughs I have never seen the "lou can detect bts better" message and when I ran into them to farm crystals this message went off about 20+ times.

It also made a unique sound. I have never heard this, but this one time after the second to last pizza delivery I went over to the swam by peter and it kept doing this over and over again. Never seen it before, is this just happenstance or is it a set feature?

Question from a Noob

Started this game a few days ago cause I was always intrigued with it and will have some down time, and of course, Death Stranding 2 is coming soon.

I was wondering if you need to/should keep completing standard orders for terminals that you have 5 stars on? I know you can keep getting stuff like certain materials, but do you get anything of importance after getting 5 stars with say a terminal like the Collector? I'm almost to the end episode 3 btw

As if the dead body mission isn't stupid enough already...

I just got hit by the stupid "Dead body about to go necro" mission from Deadman. Took me forever to figure out that body was all the way back in the Eastern Region... so much for "near my location". The fucking cherry on top, though? It spawned the body off the fucking map🤦‍♂️... Fucking Hell, Kojima. Really appreciate this cross -promotion🤬

Two questions on the game. I'm still very new to the game

I just reached port knot city. So the questions are

  1. Once I take the boat from here do i return or am I gone for good to a new area and no return?

  2. Do standard orders ever end in these initial cities and locations (capital knot, wind Farm, distribution center etc.)? Is there even a point in continuing to finish these? Seemed to me some orders simply started all over again.

I just started playing and realized that I have DS and DS directors cut.

I started playing the normal DS (10 hours) but I just learned that the directors cut seems much better, is there any way to load my data into the director’s cut edition so I don’t have to start all over again?

This game helped me with my mourning process

Past October 2024 I lost my brother suddenly due to a MI, I was first confused why my brother with 2 children passed instead of me that I don't have any. When I came back to my home, one of the ways I was distracting myself with was this game. To be honest I didn't knew the story I just bought it since it was recently added to the Xbox store and because it was a Kojima game. The story, the way they discuss and explains the relationship between the death and the living impressed me a lot. I just finished the game, and the phrase "even when we are not together, we are connected" made me cry. Now I understand that I am the strand that links my brother's legacy and myself. I am now the connection and the porter for his future, I will be there for them and tell them to "keep on keeping on" My dear porters, thank you for reading me!

Help/Advice/Guidance

Hello. My partner bought me Death Stranding for Christmas in 2019. I played it on and off for a few months on hard difficulty until the mission where you have to collect the tar extraction samples in the BT area. I found it tough, so I rage-quit and never went back to it.

I've just jumped back in and I'm completely lost. I don't really know the best way to pick it back up. Do you guys have any tips for making it smoother/less stressful? I don't have a lot of roads built right now and the next big mission on my list is crossing the tar pit, but I don't want to plough on with that if there are better/more useful things to focus on in exploring the world.

Buy new on steam or upgrade on epic?

Hey guys, I have the base game on epic through the giveaway they had years ago, and I was thinking which would be more worth it to do. The DC version is on sale at steam currently, but the upgrade on epic is still far cheaper than buying new on steam even with the sale. Though my preferred platform is steam since most of my games are there. And my epic client don't want to stay logged in for some reason so there's the added hassle. What do you guys think?
