We find a spot with a cave and river access, a swamp, a beach and as few of you dirty foreigners as possible.

Pump exploration, buy boat building, leatherworking, mining, and yeomanry.

Catch silk moths.

Take over the world.

I spawned in a temperate forest, so I decided to move south, naturally. My goal was to settle in a palace where I could survive off apples for a while until I could start killing animals.
I found a nice little territory south of an abandoned Russian house, and settled right on the edge of a mudflat. There, I set up a place to sleep and a place to store my things in pots in case it's needed.
If I got hungry, I'd pluck an apple.
If I needed to run, I'd grab only a few things and high-tail it.
I was South of a pond, west of a mountain (Kickapoo) and on the edge of a mudflat in case I needed clay.

My initial plan is to open an access point for my friends so they can survive, and I WILL kick ass if someone chops down my precious Apple Trees.

Day 1
I login. collect some curio. build a fake camp to stay a little. explore, discovering stuff and random curios. ok. 3 hours later logged off, go to sleep.

Day 2
Now i have yeomanry. build a claim. build a house just for fun. collecting exploring discovering, seeds. time passed, time to sleep.

Day 3
k. some seeds. collecting bones from rabbits for glue, ropes etc etc. starting to build a wall. Well time to sleep.

Day 4
Wall dryed, luckly no one logged here before me. I build my little wall. Ok. No caves free around here. Try to hunt a bear, it need 5 hours at actual skill. Time to go to sleep, the bear flee, logged off.

etc.


to do what you've done in 4 days, you need to play 10 hours at day. Good luck (or maibe Bad luck, so you'll have a life.)

They were just as fast in w5 and I'm sure in w4 as well. Nothing beats hard work when it comes to an early start.
