Getting the most out of the Default Cart
Tips
The Default Cart is the only cart available from the very start, and it sits third from the bottom in terms of performance across all carts. Your goal with it is simple: survive long enough to build up the distance you need for something better.
- Stop and wait when an obstacle is ahead rather than plowing into it.
- Think of the Default Cart as a grind tool — its job is to fund your next purchase.
- The gun on the front of the cart fires bullets at other players' carts.
