Once Humangives players two main weapon slots along with a melee weapon. During the tutorial, players will be given the Crossbow, which will act as their first ranged weapon that fires arrows that can be picked up and endlessly used as long as they are retrieved.

Despite the potential infinite ammo of a crossbow, the weapon reloads very slowly and isn’t ideal when dealing with the bigger enemies found throughout the world. Bullets shot from guns can’t be picked up, but still offer a much higher damage per second output than the crossbow and many melee weapons.Playing with friendsand using guns can make even the strongest enemies easy fights.

How To Craft Guns In Once Human

The first step in crafting a gun is to go into theCrafting tree of the Memetics menu and pick theEssential Toolsthen Gear Workbench upgrades. The second upgrade will give players the ability to build the Gear Workbench, where guns are actually crafted. By interacting with a Gear Workbench, players can choose what kind of gun they want to craft and what tier to craft. Higher-tier guns will require rarer materials but will deal higher base damage.

With only those Memetic upgrades, players will only be able to craft a basic pistol. Getting theBasic Gear and Long-Range Firepower upgrades will allow for almost every type of gun to be crafted, but only the basic versions. Higher rarity weapon blueprints do exist but will require players to explore and find those blueprint fragments to craft those stronger weapons.

When in the Gear Workbench menu, players can select which gun type and tier they want to craft. Along the bottom of the weapons, menu will be the various parts that need to be crafted to make that weapon. You’llneed enough materials to make all three parts at once, as one part can’t be made and set aside, all three parts will need to be crafted at the same time, making the gun in the process. While guns are useful tools, players should first secure asteady source of food and water.

Where To Get Gun Materials In Once Human

All weapon types and tiers will require different materials to craft. The most common way to obtain materials to craft a gun is byexploring and looting scraps in monster-infested structures found throughout the world. Scraps are random things such as cups, pistons, old gun parts, and any other thing that can be picked up while exploring. While scraps are found randomly, many are found in Storage Chests and Trash Cans. Players will also need to get theDisassembly Techniquesupgrade from the Infrastructure Memetic upgrade tree to build theDisassembly Bench.

Take scraps back to the Disassembly bench to break them down into various materials based on what you collected, and take those back to the Gear Workbench to try and craft your gun. Some guns will also requiresmithing materials such as Tin, Copper, and Iron, which can be obtained through mining and using a Furnace to smelt the materials.
