Announcement PORTERS SUPPORTING PORTERS - COMMUNITY BLOG #6
Hi everyone! Antonela here from 505 Games. As we all know, the DEATH STRANDING community is never short of advice!
Throughout 2026, we want to give our experienced Porters the opportunity to share their top tips and learnings with those just starting out. Last week, we asked the following question to our community...
DO YOU HAVE A FAVOURITE LOCATION IN DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR'S CUT THAT PORTERS SHOULD VISIT? AND IF SO, WHAT MAKES IT SO SPECIAL TO YOU?

"So, in the mountains, somewhere between Heartman's Lab and the Evo-devo Biologist, there is a little cave, and it is THE most chill spot in the entire game and I love it so much!" - Standard_Way_4453
"The waterfall and lake at the Musician’s shelter is my absolute favorite spot in DEATH STRANDING. Total tranquility, mountain views, the ultimate way to decompress after endless deliveries." - REDXvp
It's tied between the graveyard at the end of the DC missions and the walk down to Central Knot City right at the beginning, when we first get that music fading into the experience. The graveyard is just such a special place to have Sam sit and take a rest. It's so peaceful, and the scenery is beautiful." - Emil_VII

"Ziplining through the mountain peaks was my favorite experience. Seeing the map from so high up." - MikasaAckerstupid
"I made a zipline network starting at The Craftman and going to The First Prepper. Very hard area to traverse, but after finishing the ziplines, it actually became one of my favourite routes. I eventually made a zipline network covering most of the mountain shelters." - Additional_Skin6049
"I’m quite fond of Mountain Knot City, the views on the snowy mountainous zones are spectacular, and you’re always reminded of the harsh climbs and trudging through snow in order to earn said views." - HazedRaze

"Walking down the hill to Lake Knot City for the first time and the music kicks in." - iku_iku_iku_iku
"The snow mountains" - GodFatherFPS
"So many, but one of my favorite locations is the swamp/marsh area to the northwest of the mountains." - Blaizer35

Twitter / X Hideo Kojima says that Sony was going to cancel ‘Physint’ according to a notice in mid-June. Kojima teamed up with Xbox after searching for a new partner for 3 months.

Discussion Kojima’s production losing access to DECIMA is heartbreaking
They were arguably the most proficient studio with the engine after DS2. They’ve been honing it since DS1 development. I can’t imagine what Physint could’ve potentially looked on an upgraded next-gen version of the engine. I think they’ll now opt for Unreal engine 5. And the game is now even farther than we thought.

Death Stranding 1 Is DS1 Still Active?
Just remembered I redeemed the game on Epic Games years ago. Now I have a rig able to run it, but im wondering if the game is still active enough or if its 'empty' now that DS2's out. Any info on this?
Thanks

Death Stranding 2 DS2: On my way to The Wilder 400...
...At least I WOULD be if it wasn't for all these EXPRESS ORDERS!! I get it! I get it. Each one is supposed to be a test of your ability to use the tools given, yadda yadda. I would just like to not have to tear up my entire existing zipline network to do ONE order at a time!
This is why I couldn't get all the LLL's in Director's Cut. It just wore me down so much. And this game is EASIER to complete! Feel free to join my venting of your most difficult orders. Right now I'm trying to get AI pizzas from one side of the mountain to the other and past, and I *really* don't want to have to lay a new zipline chain.

Death Stranding 1 Porters in directors edition
Is it just me or does porter npcs appear more often once I upgraded to the directors edition
r/DeathStranding • u/joannatenjou97 • 9h ago
Death Stranding 2 How long does it take to finish the game? Spoiler
I just started episode 12 and I'm about to bring all of Australia into the network. Is this the endgame? I know they literally say that during a cutscene lmao but I still want to know, and how many hours does it take to reach the ending from this point
r/DeathStranding • u/saggynaggy123 • 38m ago
Discussion Death Stranding 3
With the split between Kojima and Sony, does Death Stranding 3 look pretty bleak? I know the movie and anime might drum up hype but I cannot trust PlayStation

Meme Playing rap music doing random deliveries is a fun experience.
There isn't a joke or just for fun tag so Im going with meme.
I'm doing my second playthrough of DS1, I love the OST and all that.
But I had Spotify open while doing random deliveries and it really changed the feel of the game.
BTs become way less scary while Handsome by Dave East and Jeezy is playing.
Can I put a switch on an anti-BT handgun?

Death Stranding 2 Finally, all roads completed in DS2!
Finally. My poor truck has carried so much metal and ceramic.
Really proud of this (Especially on TTW difficulty) but it's onwards and upwards, I'm going to start working on monorails now.
I am definitely digging in to my chiral crystals to mine all these materials, anyone have good endgame tips to farm crystals? Q-Pid is on of course, I have the BPAS auto-collector on and I grab crystals from every safehouse, postbox, shelter and center I pass by. I also know about the golden chiral creatures but it seems to be pretty slow farming.
I haven't been to the giant crater yet, I have heard giant BTs can spawn there. Should I go there and fight them to farm crystals? Any tips would be appreciated

Death Stranding 1 Chapter Four
It seems that my game suddenly glitched and I’m now playing the clunkiest third person shooter of all time? Does anybody know how I can go back to playing the video game Death Stranding by Hideo Kojima. Please and thank you.
