When I was playing dying light with friend we discovered that every timw you go to sleep and wake up air drop will appear, if you don't know air drops are pretty rare and if you collext them and deliver to one guy you will recieve lots of xp, we used that multiple times to unlock grapling hook very early. Air drops also gave lots of medicine which was hard to get in early game and that very helped us

Bethesda has two that I always utilize:

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion counts any attempt to sneak up on an unsuspecting body and adds it to your stealth skill, and when I say 'body' I mean any creature in the game, meaning you can become a master at stealth by grabbing a horse, parking it somewhere behind a lone wall in the wilderness, then keep trying to sneak up on it from the other side of the wall until your stealth is maxed out.

Fallout: New Vegas - Dead Money DLC, if you want to never have to worry about caps again, there's a way to use the game mechanics to escape from the Sierra Madre vault with its entire stash of gold bars, even though the DLC is set up to supposedly make that impossible. It involves the following:

- Bring about 20-30 landmines into the vault area with you.

- When you reach the vault itself, grab up all the gold, then walk around to the other side of the little area where Father Elijah enters. There's a second door that's blocked by a forcefield here. Drop all the gold bars from your inventory in one go to exploit the game engine's design of rendering multiple identical objects as one in-world object.

- Go around to the door Father Elijah enters from and litter the stairs and the area around the vault door with the landmines.

- Set the vault's turrets to target anyone.

- Save your game (just in case) and go through Father Elijah's final dialogue.

- Run back to the second forcefield door and grab the gold bar (the full amount will reappear in your inventory).

- Walk into the second forcefield door. If everything goes correctly, Elijah will drop both forcefields for a split second as he enters, allowing you to exit the area at the same time.

- Allow the landmines and the turrets to kill Elijah so the self-destruct system triggers and the vault's exit door (which should now be about a foot and a half away from you) unlocks.

- Leave the vault with the entire gold stash.

- Sell the gold as you need to to stock up on caps (the Gunrunners vendor is a good option since they stock 8,000 caps as standard, meaning you can buy a few weapons or equipment to get that total over the 10,000 cap value of a gold bar, then sell one of the bars to them to recoup everything).
