    Yo, just wanted to say as an almost completely new player(did one longplay by myself), this guide is actually super informative and clear. Watching you not just go through this episode but all the rest of the ones youve posted have been an ENORMOUS help to me learning what bits i didnt know about after playing almost 100 days in A20.7 before moving to A21. I was playing on scavenger - adventurer difficulty on my first play. In my new world, i started nomad, then went to warrior, and am now vibing on survivalist just past my second blood moon. The blood moon base worked absolutely perfectly for me(no zombies even broke any other objects other than the stairs. I know this kind of thing is second nature for you, but ive learned an absolute TON about how to actually make the most of every day and about just the game in general. Thank you so much for all the work you put into this series to help people who want to get into 7Days but dont know how. Keep it up mate, i hope you go big!

    Tips to make it even better; replace the bridge with something thinner like centered poles or railings, so zombies fall down more easily. Make it double stacked on top of each other so that if one section breaks because of demos or cop spit, the zombies will still have a path. Additionally you could build pillars on the side of the bridge with electric fencing spanning between them.

    Just did my day 14 horde with a similar base(I like a longer "runway" for the zombies to get to me) and using a tier 4 hunting rifle. I was able to make several rounds of AP 7.62 and used a combination of that and the spear and it absolutely crushed the hoard. Penetrator perk is still super strong with the hunting rifle.

  • @thatjoejuggalo
    @thatjoejuggalo Год назад +3

    i'd recomend changing your bridge from a full block to upper centered pole and that way the zombies dont pile up as much...and will be forced to single file or fall off and then back around again...gives you a little more time to spread your stamina usage...just a thought

  • @OmikronTitan
    @OmikronTitan Год назад +5

    You can pretty much just use basic frames if make a platform 11 high (to prevent area destruction) and make a pyramid staircase a small gap away from it. Reinforce the fighting position and the first few steps and you're golden. Takes about five minutes. Upgrade from there later on for spiders/cops on harder difficulties.

    I just build an enclosed space on the roof of a gas station or similar building and use a simple set of blocks to climb on/off the roof. I take away the top block to keep zombies from climbing or jumping up. The walls of the building are so tough that you can avoid the horde as long as necessary and just pick them off from the roof at will. No fancy building or planning really needed.

    I did the trailer POI earlier today. I knew there was a dog but couldn't remember where it was and I had decided the double loot the mailboxes. Needless to say I didn't see the dog until it was chewing my bum and by then it had already made a mess of me. When I reset the POI I got the dog with minimal damage but failed to see the snake that had spawned on the reset. It was a bad session.

    • @darrenl3289
      @darrenl3289 Год назад +3

      I empathize. The animals seem to be the real threat. Exact same thing happened to me at that POI but no snake. However I have also got gored by two pigs that snuck up behind me side by side while I was aiming at a zombie in the road. They wiped me out in like 3 seconds. Instant broken leg, bleeding, dead.

    @pengurrito7136 Год назад +13

    I used this design for a21. It worked great for day 7. But for the day 14 horde, only the first batch of zombies came up the ramp and attacked the opening. All zombies after that attacked the supports beneath me, trying to collapse the structure. I knocked out the rail, plate, and beams and was going to rely on the hatches as barriers. But even with the hatches down, making me fully exposed, they still didn't route to the opening. Luckily I had enough molotov cocktails to thin the herd and I didn't die. But why would they change behaviors in the middle of horde night? The only difference from your design is that I had barbed wire set down on the on the path up to the opening, but I had them down on the day 7 horde too.

    the absolute irony is that iv got myself in the rafters of a firehouse too. the zombies mostly go for the garage doors. and when they hit about 60% health the middle opens up allowing you to shoot and stab through the gap. its quite effective actually because i can repair the doors with very little scrap iron.

    • @arcticblue248
      @arcticblue248 Год назад +1

      Thats how I usually have built bases, with better equipment I could dig a huge hole under the platform, down there I could build like electric fence so it killed off any zombies there, also had 2 of those junkguns working at the gate that was only 1 block wide... and long so they had a very killing field there.

      I was thinking the same thing. How the hell does he have a hammer by day 5? I had to make a base just using the stone hatchet and I couldn't get it done in time. So I moved horde night to 2 weeks. That gives me enough time to find books get the resources I need. Some of it you can buy, but there's no way to get it done in 7 days unless you're lucky and can stand hitting a block slowly 6 times to upgrade to cobble.

    I double the height of the base so that zombies take fall damage, i also double the length of the walk way and put 1 high railings every 3-4 blocks along the walk way, it thins out the zombies that get to your fighting position so you don't need that to be as long in the early game so few needs of hatches, also if i get a sledge turret early enough i stick that out front on its own little side ledge to knock zombies off and away from the walk way

      It looks like this base could be modular, just build multiple - possibly facing multiple directions. Then simply connect them to a central room where you can probably keep a chest or 2 of supplies. Should be easy especially if you have 1 or 2 people focused on gathering resources for the week leading up. Or, make the corridor a little wider so multiple people can stand in it.

    Current build i have after soending so long away i am suprised how much i changed. And experimented
    Did you know you can place doors on its side? Make pretty knifty trap doors, i use that trick to bridge out to some elsectric traps like a maintance hall
    As well as i choose which avenue the zombies go down

    • @herogibson
      @herogibson Год назад +1

      It just depends what you want your horde base to do. If you have a fighting position you’re confident in i say give them an easy way up. The faster they get to your position, the faster you can kill them and get xp. There are definitely bases you would want to slow them down and make them hop though. Both are ways to get them up to you, its just a matter of what you prefer.

    My buddy always sleeps on candy and mega crush buffs. Last horde night they died 7 times within a few minutes complaining about stamina and being too slow while asking how tf i was so fast and always running/able to kite back.....
    -We never build any defences for our first 3 horde nights, we just kite in a random street with melee, and only use guns if we really need to-

    I just stood on top of a building and picked them off with stone arrows. No need to build a complicated setup. I didn't even start constructing a base until after day 21. Still fighting hordes from atop buildings ... less work and you just move on to another building.

    Do you already have or could you make a design on a progression type base for a 2 player team where you add on to the base to keep it in line with the game stage?

    You know that there's a 3*3 block you can make. It's either 3*3 or 3*5. Something like that. Making it easier to build. Course you lose out in exp. (A little). But hey, you'll get levels the longer you play. Very easy. Though, not sure if it is still in 21. Haven't played newest update yet.
