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

Many moons ago, in the 90'ies Railroad Tycoon had a glitch that you could exploit to hell and back.

You could buy stock in the different competitors and when you had 51% you had the stock majority, and could basically do as you pleased. So, what you'd do was transfer all available money to your own company, then sell a few stocks to get below 50%. The AI would then take out a loan, or a bigger loan. And you would continue this, until the negative value would exceed what would be in an integer (I think it was), and the negative value was now positive.

Originally the idea was to bankrupt the other companies this way, but it turned out to be a money printer. In both cases the game quickly became uninteresting.

I guess I was not old enough to just play it as intended. :)
