Do the radiation death trap places have something worth going there for?

Sometimes the waste dumps have intact military vehicles in them, usually a troop transport or something. It's one of my top looting destinations, right after mansions and LMOE

There's a fuckload of random junk in the bottom of the sarcophagus, including loads of mutagen and steel drums (moar water storage is always good).

Now if only some of those drums would have mutagen in them. o3o

It looks like, but the wiki and it's download links still work.

Haven't played in like a year, got the experimental yesterday. Genned a world, scavenged basement of shelter for some clothes and then tried to smash a bench down to get planks and nails to barricade windows. After two hits a window broke, noise attracted zombies. I ran and poked them to second death while npc in the shelter just watched. Got slightly wounded, emergency jacket I found in basement was quite good protection for a start. Looking through the window I saw a garage with hippy van and some fuel. After butchering zombies should I craft some weapon (knife-spear) or go for the city with pocket knife?

Unless you are a martial artist, never go anywhere without a half-decent weapon. Even if you plan to run from zeds, you might get cornered.

Yeah, just got attacked by a horde close to shelter. Basic power armor saved me during the encounter, but I still got my head severely beaten. It'll take a few deaths to remove the rust. Found a light tank with some loot, unguarded. Also got Science ID card from one of corpses around, but I'm not going to any lab until I get some really good equipment.

get a with the block skill.  even a pipe will do in the beginning.

knife spear is an a above average weapon for EG.  baseball bat is imo better though.

go find some children, attract them with juicy vittles, then start a fire under their bums.  wait and repeat until you have a bat.   just remember to check after every zed dies.  being made of wood more often than aluminum, bats arent exactly flame retardant.  and since baby zeds dont spawn with ammo ever there no cooking ammo risk

then carry around 6 nails and a rock until your bat gets damaged good.  make a spiked bat that is fully repaired.    for cheese points

Several deaths later (bears, swarm, mi-go, turrets, etc.), got somewhat peaceful start with helicopter crash scenario. Seeing that there's an emormous swarm in nearby city I wandered north, where I found huge power substation (only one zombie technician there), which might be a good starting base (fence protection). Then there's a city and FEMA camp nearby, I'll hit the latter if I survive long enough to get good equipment.

Power stations are very good bases. The biggest reason why is that they're massive stockpiles of metal and electronics, which are terribly convenient to have in your literal backyard. The fact that they're fairly fortified and usually a good[But not insurmountable] distance from cities is icing on the cake..

Labs make excelent low effort bases, even if you just stay on the first level. If you can handle the darkness and the cold, the lower levels are packed with all kinds of resources, books and even some food. Water bottles are plentiful and you can also find stuff like funnels in order to gather water from the rain, not to mention the mutagens and weapons you can find. One of my favorite things is to take the ~locked in a lab~ start, take a few useful mutations and use the extra points for some key traits and a shitton of strenght, then just craft me some things and fight my way up then break the outer walls with a sledgehammer, controlled fire or other such means.

Just found this game. Great fun. Especially smashing into a roadblock at 500 km/h in a police car wearing nothing but a bikini and tophat.

edit: Whose brilliant idea was it to end a road in a wall of trees?
