Solnechny outskirts
Solnechny outskirts is a starting location designed primarily for low-level players. Here, you can complete your first quests, get used to the game mechanics, and prepare for further adventures.
The location has transitions to the following zones: Solnechny town, MTE, Big Village, Forestry, Minaev’s territory, and Swamp.
Marked on the map below:
- well location for the “Poison the Water” faction quest for Black Sunset (blue marker);
- location of the “Motor Transport Enterprise” note (yellow marker);
- key location for the “Antique Key” quest (pink marker);
- gasoline barrels location (red markers).
Solnechny town
Solnechny town is a small but one of the busiest locations in the game, as this is where all beginners end up after completing the tutorial in the Camp.
Several exits lead from the location to Solnechny outskirts, and a No-PK mode is in effect throughout the territory.
This is where all the main story questlines begin, which: introduce the game’s lore, help you understand the basic mechanics, direct you to other locations, and most importantly, allow you to complete the main part of the tasks required to join a faction.
This location is also perfect for making new acquaintances and starting co-op play. As a rule, high-level players rarely come here, so it will be easier to find common ground and play together with other beginners.
Do not neglect quests and the opportunity to communicate—this is where your game begins, and how you start it will largely determine how long you stay in the project.
Bomb shelter
The Bomb shelter is a small sub-location in Solnechny town.
The transition to it is located in the basement of one of the houses. To find it, go out to the square with the monument and enter the two-story building to the left of the monument. Inside, there will be a door requiring lockpicks—it leads to the bomb shelter.
In the bomb shelter itself, you can find a lot of useful loot for beginners.
Marked on the map:
- how to explore the bomb shelter 100% (stock up on lockpicks!);
- where to find the documents for the “Bomb Shelter” quest;
- where keys #22 and #23 are located.

MTE
The MTE is one of the starting locations for beginners in the game. Here, they can complete story quests received from NPCs in the Solnechny location. In the crates scattered around the location, you can find black metal, rubber, sulfur, and other items needed for story quests, which can also be sold to earn some money. There is also plenty of wood here. The location is populated by “Watchers”, from which you can obtain not only quest items but also resources for painting armor and weapons. These resources can also be put on consignment for other players, helping beginners earn starting capital. For experienced players, the location is interesting because of the large amount of charcoal found here, which is necessary for crafting ammo and filters for washing gasoline.
There are two transitions to the location, both located in Solnechny outskirts. Both transitions are displayed on the map.
LORE: Location history
The MTE location is located not far from the town of Solnechny, or more precisely, in its outskirts. This was once a motor transport enterprise where various vehicles were serviced for the needs of the local residents.
“Despite the fact that the MTE was abandoned many years ago and has long been inactive, over the years since the Catastrophe, far from everything has been stolen from the enterprise. This is primarily due to the dangers that can be encountered there. Besides dangerous anomalies, unusual creatures called ‘Watchers’ inhabit the MTE.
At first glance, they may seem harmless, but if you turn your back to them, in the best traditions of the wastelands, they will stab you in the back. And to be more precise—they will definitely attack and gnaw you to death. Even without warning. These creatures are excellent at camouflaging themselves to their environment, like chameleons, and that is what makes them even more insidious. Where they came from is unknown to anyone. But if you find yourself at the MTE… be careful.”
The main markers are indicated on the provided map, which will allow you to easily:
- Explore the MTE 100%;
- Complete the “Stashes in Anomalies” quest (Bartender’s tasks). You need to stand next to the Radioteleport. The teleports themselves randomly throw you all over the location and can lead to “stashes” with loot;
- Find the Air Filter for the “Engine” quest from Grisha “Mazuta” (appears individually when the quest is active). Located in an iron crate in the “pit”;
- Find the NDP detector body for the “Fix the NDP Detector” quest (room under key #13);
- Find the power supply for assembling I-HR and I-SAAC, threads for crafting chitin armor, charcoal, battery.
Ready-made map markers file (MapMarkers)
We have prepared an up-to-date file with the most important map markers. After installation, you will get ready-made marks for quest points, mob spawn locations, fuel collection points, transitions, radio teleports, artifacts, and other useful objects. We tried to fit as much information as possible within the available limit — 100 markers per location.
This file will be useful for beginners who want to get comfortable in the game faster, as well as for experienced players (especially those playing multiple characters) so they don't have to place all the markers manually.
Enjoy the game!
