Resources are difficult to obtain if you do this method in a public server. You have people trying to grab trucks while everyone else is in bunker, and people blocking roads to steal your hard earned loot. Therefore, this method is created to be the most foolproof method for solo players that grind our resources.
Before you set off to grab your materials, you want to start with your HQ and make sure you set it up.
1. Open your HQ through the terminal and purchase your first operators. This ensures that you have people that work for you which keeps your HQ operations running.
2. Assign you newly purchased personnel to Logistics. This creates inventory space for the resources you will be collecting.
Note: You may notice we aren't putting anything on operations or delivery. If you are a newer player you should focus on upgrading your logistics, and barracks as you may hold more personnel, and resources.
Before we do anything, load up a free private server and enter it. This will ensure you can easily grab all materials without outside intervention. There are two ways you can execute your route. One way is through air, and the other through ground. Both have their pro's and cons.
Ground: You are more prone to get spotted entering the city, and might get the gunner that's facing the exit of the entrance alerted.
The fastest and the most reliable route is through Ronograd City. Using this map , enter the city through the tunnel. Once you exit the tunnel turn onto the dirt path on your immediate right. After follow the buildings through the backside until you reach the compound that has the two trucks. There is a back entrance so entering should be easy.
Simply hop in one of the two trucks and exit using the red exfil arrow. Afterwards follow the C/F white arrow route through the tunnel. NOTE: You will be shot at on the way out, however they can't hit anything so you should be fine.
Repeat steps one and two for both Construction and Fuel trucks.
To obtain the equipment jeep, you need to enter the same way you did for the fuel and construction. However instead entering the fenced off compound, you're going to drive around it. If you check the map you will follow the green arrow around the buildings. Park your vehicle being the second building, and go the rest on foot. Continue on the green arrow, and watch out for enemies.
Once you get to an alleyway between two buildings, you will see a fortified area crawling with enemies. Make sure to use cover and take out any that take notice. Afterwards, take the equipment jeep and exit the same way you came in.
The fastest and most reliable route after you take off is flying low through the canyon next to quarry. If you fly through that you will be able the bottom right edge of the city. Make sure to fly low as there are NPC's with RPG's on the roofs of the city once you get close.
Once you reach the city, make sure to land behind the fenced compound that hold the construction and the fuel trucks. Simply hop in one of the two trucks and exit using the red exfil arrow. Afterwards follow the C/F white arrow route through the tunnel. NOTE: You will be shot at on the way out, however they can't hit anything so you should be fine. Repeat for both trucks/
To obtain the equipment jeep, you can either land in the spot and walk behind the buildings, or land behind the first or second building. Continue on the green arrow, and watch out for enemies.
Once you get to an alleyway between two buildings, you will see a fortified area crawling with enemies. Make sure to use cover and take out any that take notice. Afterwards, take the equipment jeep and drive back where you ran from. Maneuver your vehicle behind the two buildings, and take white arrow to the tunnel.
Later on in the HQ upgrade process, you will notice you will need more precious metals. At this point you may have parts of your HQ already upgraded, and already15-30 personnel you have in logistics and delivery. Because it would take more time to collect everything in Ronograd and then hit quarry for the precious meteals jeep, I've created another solution.
To do this, go back into your HQ. Re-organize your personnel into operations and set it to precious metals. While you are getting materials for the upgrades, your HQ will automatically collect precious metals - mediating your workload, and making upgrading your HQ easier. At this point, you should be able to upgrade anything. So have fun.
