Beyond weapons, several utility items are critical for survival. Medkits: Instantly restore a significant portion of your health. Always carry a few and use them strategically during or after combat. Armor Vests: Provide an additional layer of protection, absorbing damage before your health bar is affected. Pick these up whenever you find them. Binoculars: Essential for scouting ahead, identifying enemy positions, and planning your approach without exposing yourself. They also have a zoom function. Flashlight: Activated with the 'F' key, crucial for navigating dark areas like caves or research facilities. Remember that using the flashlight can give away your position to enemies in stealth situations. Manage your inventory wisely to ensure you always have access to these life-saving items.
