* If you're in a situation where you can't use waypoints (typically when you're carrying a survivor), I find it helps to repeatedly hit the "follow me!" button, maybe once every few seconds. There are situations where a survivor's path will temporarily be blocked by another survivor, and I think hitting the button makes the survivor try again, as opposed to running off to find an alternate route. | * If you're in a situation where you can't use waypoints (typically when you're carrying a survivor), I find it helps to repeatedly hit the "follow me!" button, maybe once every few seconds.

* Also, take some time (which you'll have, if you don't try to do everything) to explore the mall. If you beeline between objectives, you'll never learn where the awesome food and weapons are. Explore not just the stores, but also any hard-but-not-impossible to reach areas you notice. Try using everything as a weapon at least once, and remember that your only goal is to be back on the helipad in 72 hours - everything else is optional. | * Also, take some time (which you'll have, if you don't try to do everything) to explore the mall.

* Get the mini-chainsaws off of the psycho clown, then head to the bookstore. I don't know which ones you need, but there are three books that you can pick up to increase the durability of these weapons. With all three books in your possession, you can use the things for pretty much the entire game; they'll saw through a number of zombies in a single, quick hit, bosses will simply collapse before your sawing might, and if you ever need more you can just return to where the clown was and pick them up. You might need to get a couple more near the end of the game, if you cut through a high number of the undead. | * Get the mini-chainsaws off of the psycho clown, then head to the bookstore.
