  • State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition Home Base Reviews! Rusty Rosie's Fortified Truckstop!
    Is it a diner? A truckstop? Or a gas station? You decide in this review of a mid-game Providence Ridge home base!
    "Rusty Rosie's Fortified Truckstop" is likely the second base you will encounter while exploring Providence Ridge due to how close it is to the Firewatch Fortress while also being a lower costed base to occupy.
    Within the base are several... interesting facilities that may require a much closer look to understand... but are they good enough to make this base worth it?
    But how good is the Fortified Truckstop? What's it look like and what should you learn from it? Find out in this home base review!

      Ul said in their last stream that they are going to need the pyro launcher. They said its way to powerful and by far the most used way to kill plague hearts.

    • @GitGudFox
      @GitGudFox  4 года назад +2

      Given UL's track record with balancing things, I wouldn't be surprised if the nerf isn't strong enough to make the weapon not OP... especially because fire is simply extremely powerful. As long as the pyrolauncher shoots fire, it's still going to wipe out zombies without much effort. It doesn't need to wipe out plaguehearts to not be OP.

    I tend to use bases as temporary sites to live in while clearing that area of loot and plague hearts, once that was done I move on to the next base and repeat. It saves a lot of driving time, and keeps things from getting dull.

    Your so underrated man, I haven’t been around for a while I recently just started subscribing and watching your vids, but from the just the little time I’ve been watching you’ve always put so much efforts in your videos and your not blends your funny, I hope to see more newer games from you, love to see gameplays and some tutorials but keep up the good work

      I try to compete on quality against my SoD2 competitors on RUclips. Sometimes it pays off. Sometimes it doesn't. There are videos that had a tremendous amount of research put into it that definitely didn't pull in the views vs. the effort, but then there are videos that do extremely well and draw a massive audience, but at the end of the day, I try to have the highest quality videos on essential subjects on whatever game I'm currently focusing on.
      I am interesting in newer games. I might do Mechwarrior 5 Mercenaries, but I haven't decided. The kind of games I want to make guides for are somewhat unpopular games (not super unpopular though) like SoD2. I don't like to do really popular games because they attract much more powerful RUclips channels that have so many viewers that they dominate all of the search slots.

    Very useful base as a stop-gap base to go to the fire house or lumbermill :) but I agree you start to feel its limitations as you grow in population. Great base for 4 people though. I think I like this base over most 4 man bases just because of the amazing free facilities that cut down on materials. Plus the auto shop is easily the best stop gap facility to get for free since you can build a bunch of repair kits before moving out and then won't need the auto shop going forward (unless you really suck at driving. lol)
    Also really good numbers on the kitchen. I wonder why the devs made a two-ability combo so weak? I really think you're right that smaller bases could use little buffs that make them worth the size trade-off.

    I've never been able to work out whether it's actually worth the investment of time and energy. It's nice to know the direct comparison to strong painkillers as well and how valuable pharmacology is over munitions. I used to like munitions until I discovered there are enclaves that actually give you knowledge of munitions.
    I always thought given what it takes to get Bartending or acknowledge of alcoholic beverages it had to be good. Now I know im better off with a driver or coffee knowledge or sewing or maybe even craftsmanship (btw sewing includes craftsmanship)...
    All I'm trying to say is that you have demonstrated that it's just not worth having a bartender in the community.

      If the white noise machine gets you a higher morale tier, then you want the white noise machine because higher morale tiers increase your EXP, so it'd let you have the best of both worlds. If the white noise machine doesn't bump you up a morale tier, then the reference books would be better.

      @@GitGudFox All good. I just love all your previous base reviews so I was really looking forward to that one. When I did nightmare zone for the first time I used the fire station so I could have power and water until I completed the builder legacy. I forgot how nice it was not having to click power and water all the time. I got impatient and wanted to move into the base with 5 large facilities but with only three small facilities and all of them indoors... you end up using a large slot for your watch tower and/or your infirmary. I mean you end up using large slot for needs that would be better met with more small facilities. There are no small out door slots so no garden, regular watchtower, still or generator (if you need one). If you like the latrine that's not an option. If the forge or the auto shop did everything the workshop did in addition to the unique features they provide that would be an improvement. It just seemed to me that a base with 5 large slots it just wasn't that good and I Iook forward to your commentary.
      On a side note I did figure out the lumber mill facility. You can use labour to get 1, 2 or 3 materials for labour. Depending on the option you choose determined the amount of noise (threat) you generate.

      That doesn't mean it won't still be OP because fire itself is really, really strong. As long as there is a gun that shoots fire, it's going to be absurdly strong. They would have to severely nerf the weapon to legitimately make it not OP.
      Suppose they double or even triple its ammo cost, it'd still be OP. If they halved its ammo capacity, it'd still be OP. They'd have to do something pretty severe to it to make it not OP.

They can't even shoot out so you gotta let zeds in and having a fight at that spot which isn't a bad thing but it feels unintuitive. It still a pretty defensible base if one knows about blocking the entrance with vehicles, and since you have a solid container near the door which none of zeds able to climb up, you get a pretty solid shooting platform and a safe haven to flee to.
      I want to love this base since it feels like a tutorial toward the brewing company one but when the player found out that you net loss by turning ethanol into moonshine, it will give them a bad impression when they get into the brewing company base.

    I'd love if you did a review series of every home base. But that said, isn't this base being underrated significantly by you? At least, if you're looking for a particular type of setup? For example, this base is competing directly with Western Builder Supply. Providence Ridge specifically works with four quadrants, every base is in a corner... with the exception of this one. Which, admittedly, is only a smidgen better because it's TOP CENTER, but at least it has that going for it. Moreover, however, it seems just plain better than Western Builder Supply if you're looking for two specific things: A still, and a Watchtower. If you want both of those things in a base, Rosie's I feel is a very strong competitor for your time.
    With Western, you get: Red Talon Watchtower, and Still. I assume upgraded Still doesn't matter, since you're looking for Strong Painkiller production. This competes with the Gas Tower, and the Biker Bar. The Gas Tower gets you 100+ gas storage... which loses out to Red Talon's +4 Zombie Threat removal. But the Still, upgraded or not, I feel loses MASSIVELY to the Kitchen, which comes with all the morale wonderfulness, and the fact it can do the Still's job as well. BUT FOLKS. That's not all. You're generating (well, technically just not losing) +2 Mats a day with Rosie's because those are already built in facilities. I think this nudges it towards Rosie's win, making it better than Western. Of course, this assumes you want a Watchtower at all.

      The base reviews are not made in comparison to one another until the final review. It's not possible for me to compare and contrast them until I've reviewed them all individually, so what you're asking about isn't the point or goal of the video.
      The base is reviewed in isolation, and I think this base is kind of not great in isolation.
      I have the basic information recorded for Westen, but I haven't made the voice over for it. It's likely Westen will be rated higher since it's just a better base with more space available.

      @@GitGudFox Fair enough. But it seems odd to use a staging area instead of a farm, given two of the inbuilt facilities already don't cost mats. There's also a kitchen, which benefits from food production. And an officer lounge would pretty much nail this place as a high morale base. Of course, that would require not having a Red Talon Bunk room, but you can just get contractors with Vigil Guard, and maybe the +3 bed Hero Bonus.
      If you're not down for Contractors, I'd argue, then, it's not fair to constantly bring up the Red Talon Watchtower, since if you can get that, you can get contractors. The inbuilt Watchtower isn't *that* much worse than a standard lvl 2 Watchtower. Maybe I'm overvalueing the Kitchen, but not taking advantage of Hydroponics/Farm while having a trading post. This base really should be used at its strength, not muddled with inefficient staging areas or a base not kitted to pump out food to take FULL advatange of Ethenol and Kitchen production.
      Maybe this is supposed to look like a standard, basic base for new players? If so, I think it's very misleading to then use EIGHT survivors that aren't kitted out for what I mentioned to take full advantange of the base, which are now just producing needless extra noise to make it seem like a high siege area, when you have the base requirements to take one of the massive bases right now. I dunno, I think it's just way better than it seems to have been made out to be.

    • @GitGudFox
      @GitGudFox  3 года назад

      Because there is no advantage to the kitchen production. Food is not hard to obtain. The point of growing food is to be lazy, not to mass produce. If you're mass producing food by growing it, then you're being silly.
      The amount of food you grow per day is an absolute joke compared to just going out and obtaining food... the most plentiful bulk resource in the entire game. Food is everywhere. You don't need to grow it to optimize an extremely underwhelming game mechanic.
      You could get the same ethanol production from Westen by just building your own crafting still there and not have the awful kitchen and the bad tower.
      You're basically trying to emphasize a bad mechanic for the purposes of... getting a bit more ethanol and morale?
      Yeah, I'm never going to recommend anyone build a base like that. That's a weird design for people with specific design tastes and COMPLETELY inappropriate for this kind of video.

    • @GitGudFox
      @GitGudFox  3 года назад

      In the end I don't think it's a good base, and I don't think your line of thinking makes it any better. It's just polishing up a mediocre base into... a shinier mediocre base.
      I don't think pumping resources to take advantage of a bad mechanic is a good idea.
      I don't think specializing your community to enhance a mediocre base is a good idea when you could just start with a more worthwhile base to begin with.
      I don't think growing 3 more food per day (aka getting 1 more rucksack per day) is good.
      I don't think using this base to produce ethanol is good.
      I don't think using this base to produce morale is good.
      This base is not good. You could go to Squelones for a better crafting still experience, and all of the 8-man bases are going to be better which is why there's no reason to go all out and heavily invest into optimizing this base.
      It's just a bad idea.

    • @JJokerMoreau
      @JJokerMoreau 3 года назад

      @@GitGudFox I mean, everyone has gardens. The Staging Area is more or less a resource generating building too. I'm pumping out 8 food with my farm, seeds boost yield. There's a yield boosting mod. If you go hydroponics, you're getting more than just a meager amount of food. But they can all be swapped to medicine production instead, if food really isn't the cup of tea. The only other thing you could do is build a sniper tower instead, which is fine.
      Squelones doesn't exist on the map.
      Literally, my comparison is towards the only other medium base. We all know large bases are better, but even you said in a vid that you sometimes prefer smaller bases. As I do. My point was, and I'll reiterate: If you want a Watchtower, and a Still. This base provides. You get 100+ fuel storage, a kitchen, and +2 mats a day. Versus +4 Zombie Thread reduction from the other base. That's it. I prefer Rosie's over the Fenced Storage area for this reason.

    Can anyone explain how the resource harvesting works as i’m supposed to get +7 meds for example per day, but it usually gives me about half what i’m supposed to gather each morning. Not sure if this is a bug or if I get half in the day and half at night.

      @hervisdabeny3241 4 года назад

      SmexyKillerballz90 i’m looking at the menu that takes medical deductions into account. It always seems to add only half of what the +value is. For example: 7meds gathered, -2meds used so the + total would be +5 meds/Day. In that scenario it would only give me 2 or 3 a day, which makes me believe that i’m getting half but twice a day with one during the morning and one in the afternoon

    Don’t really have any thoughts on the pyro launcher being nerfed at this moment in time.

      They just take a lot more effort. I have to record a ton of footage and then piece it together scene-by-scene. I have to do the research, layout the data, and then form the data into a presentation that makes sense, gets the points across, and then tell all of it within a reasonable amount of time and sync up the images to what I'm speaking of. If something is unknown, I have to manually test it, find the people with skills I don't have if necessary, use several save files to check prices etc.
      It just takes dramatically more effort than any other video type I make. There's also the special effects added in the final stages.
