Passed the tutorial, now I'm making my own character. Do you guys tend to put points into stats or into perks? Also which of the bad perks aren't really too bad?
The tutorial has an end other than blowing up the wall and escaping?

I put my points into stats/skills. A good starting character would be on with good strength, since melee weapons are easy to find and you'll be able to carry alot. I suppose Vegetarian isn't that big of a deal, there's plenty of vegetables around town. Heavy sleeper also isn't bad as long as you have traps to protect you.
Veggies go bad after a couple days. Haven't gotten that far with a vegetarian, but I imagine it would be a huge pain after the expiration of the fruits and veggies.
What types of buildings do you guys usually use as safehouses?
The ones (houses) with a basement, or rooms with no windows. Stores are bad as there are tons of windows to get broken into, and few doors to escape (all the windows are on the same side typically). The ones with a closet type area might be alright though.
EDIT: So how useful is that dog in the beginning? I accidentally quick traveled and now he is gone
How do you quick-travel? Do you mean holding down the arrow buttons?
Press M, move your cursor to where you want to travel, then hit enter.
Alternatively, press ! (for run mode), and hold down the direction you wish to go (can't say arrows, I use vi keys). MUCH faster than selecting where to go, yet still relatively safe (you stop BEFORE any monsters are even on the screen, as soon as you can sense them).
