There's actually a really good cave for building a cave base. It's a little ice cave up in the mountains on the opposite side of themountain from the spawn locations. It's a bit unique because it doesn't have the interactable crevasse entrance so you can actually build log structures in there instead of just log furniture, and you don't even need to do the zipline trick since it's just an open entrance. It's very cold and a bit cramped, you could maybe fit a one story 2x2 with a flat roof inside, but it's just a single relatively flat circular room and not too much debris other than one skeleton and some respawning wooden crates at the back which don't really mess with the vibes too much.
@Benjamin Parent It's marked with a cave icon on the gps and it's like halfway up the mountain, but that's all I remember, haven't played in a little while
The shovel cave and rebreather felt ok but the other ones feel like they are rushed, i also hope they re do some of them and spread the gear out a bit more
I really loved cave bases in the original. The chainsaw/missionary cave was tall enough to put down a floor and still have plenty of headroom. The one on the beach by the snow biome was big enough for a two story structure in it. Added bonus of every time you came home, all loot respawns meant always having rope. food, cloth and flares.
That was one of the things I really hoped was expanded in the sequel, more options for an active defense. (Unless I'm forgetting something) the only one in the first game was the catapult that felt really underwhelming, the rest were traps
Whoa, that cave home is looking cozy. I don't know about keeping too much in there given a single patch might wipe it out though. I tried the bridge thing too but turned it into a huge cannibal trap over time and zipline everywhere instead.
Much easier way to get logs in the cave. Build the small shelter (the one with logs sticks and rocks) and you can hold "C" and remove logs from the blueprint. It takes some practice to find the right spot, but it can be done and you can pull 50 logs in about 30 sec
Me and my friend built a base on the island and a bridge, you can do that by building a tower under water near the island and then from there its pretty easy.
@broadbent What if u tried firing the grapple from inside and anchor it to the far wall inside the cave, at that point u should be able to put the logs on the line at the entrance which would send them right in (I don’t own the game so I don’t know if it works any better or worse but I wanted to point it out as something to test)
the Cave NE of the plane crash site (air strip), where the southern flowing river starts. Very nice for a cave base Infact you could build a pretty secure wooden base right in front of the cave entrance.
I feel like the amount of enemies in caves and throughout the island kind of kill the thrill factor. You just get used to them instead of it being a scary encounter.
honestly yeah, there used to be like one, two, maybe three mutants in a cave from what i remember, and now it feels like there's dozens of them in each cave. those finger guys and the twins especially.
for the bridge at the very end you can create a special entrance only you can navigate by utilizing the new wall and enforced wooden spike setup. there is a youtube video out there on how to create the entrane so that all mutants and cannibals will run right into the spikes and not be able to go around the wall properly due to their awkward navmeshing
I found a cave up the mountain I think near the downed airplane where you get the leather jacket. It literally has a couple skeletons in it and nothing else. Its pretty flat and doesn't go to far back. I wish I could remember where it was at.
since you can use prefabs. can you throw a say log cabin prefab down and build it and then take down the logs you dont want to make walls? Then depending how its coded you may be able to build on the floor that is in it
In terms of getting logs in a bit easier, maybe see if you could use the auto storage function of the log holders. Build one on the inside of the cave and see if it suctions logs from the outside (either by Zipline or by throwing by hand)
just get 1 log in the cave then do the glitch to get infinite logs inside. You place 1 log down horizontally then use a stick to lift it, once its done just bump the structure, it will breaks and 1 log should come off the ground, then repeat the process :)
There's a small cave next to the big lake on the far side of the island that doesn't have anything in it except a skeleton in an arm chair. Perfect for building a small cave base like this.
This game is definitely not for me, but love to see you playing and experimenting with it!! Every episode has been a blast and you have the perfect mindset for it..
Maybe if you could glitch through the map like what happened with the mutant.. you might be able to build where the cave would be. I think it may be possible because of the way you can see the blueprints in the cave.
I have been using ziplines and log holders to automate my 'logging area'. Placing a zipline horizontally just above holders' means they snap into them as they move along. Maybe having a holder just inside the cave may snap them into the holder?
Oh my gosh, you were literally right by the chainsaw. When you turned around at 11:10 because you said you were cheating the game, there was a doorway in that room to a theatre room and the chainsaw was in there.
You can simply throw the logs into the entrance and then enter, you should get the E pick up command if you look back at the opening. It’s pretty easy.
The Sipline is not necessary. You can just go to the entrance with the logs and drop them so that they get stuck in the entrance. Then you go in the Cave and can grab the logs
Hey nice vid as always! I was wondering, will you create a bunker base just like in the snow on the flrst game? I loved this base and even created it in the other game and i wanted to know if you would do an other one on the new game. Keep up you're doing so well!
You can install a build anywhere cheat/mod to allow you to build in caves, been doing it myself. Now i don't know if it allows you to build in every cave though.
There's a cave in the mountains that you can walk straight in, no doorway, large center room but flat, but I do wonder if they limited the building in said cave or not because it does not have that front door you have to squeeze through. Will do some research real quick.
I love how you're making the whole map your playground, rather than stay in one spot. Always makes it fun to watch
This game is made for you Broadbent. I am so excited to see your creativity man.
@@infinity2223 are you good? Took it way too literally lmao

I’d like to find this, where exactly is it?
@Benjamin Parent It's marked with a cave icon on the gps and it's like halfway up the mountain, but that's all I remember, haven't played in a little while
lol at 11:15 you were a few short steps away from the chainsaw
Love this. Can’t wait for you to take the building to an extreme level. You’re awesome!
Chicken balls
Yes
No
@@oab glad you aprove
@@ez3686 wanna bet?
Yes
I wonder if they're going to rework the caves. They don't seem like the scary threat that seek to have intended them to be.
The shovel cave and rebreather felt ok but the other ones feel like they are rushed, i also hope they re do some of them and spread the gear out a bit more
I’m pretty sure all the caves that are just one room are gonna be expanded cuz the first game didn’t have anything like thsy
@@AFKin the shovel cave has literally 75 enemies. Bit much.
@@radiantone5158 im a loot goblin so im sure i just loved stacking the armour too much to notice, but yeah i can see what you mean
@@radiantone5158 and yet you can still get through there on the hardest difficulty without much effort

cave on the east side of the mountain might be good for building, its just a roundish open space
I respect that you turned around when you entered that part that you shouldn't. 🎩👍🏻
IVE BEEN WAITING ALL DAY FOR THE EPISODE!!! LOVE THE SERIES
Imagine having a giant ballista loaded with crafted spears in Sons of The Forest
That was one of the things I really hoped was expanded in the sequel, more options for an active defense. (Unless I'm forgetting something) the only one in the first game was the catapult that felt really underwhelming, the rest were traps
dude you gotta suggest this on the community page on steam, great idea tbh
@@llyhjkkkbyeet6006 I will suggest it, indeed. I hope they will approve it
@@FatherOfConqs you are right. the only active way in The Forest 1 to put cannibals' lives into past tenses is a Catapult, Traps are passive-agressive
You can build rope bridges! it takes two ropes, and needs a structure on each side, but yea, and those looks pretty good, and cannibals can't use them
Whoa, that cave home is looking cozy. I don't know about keeping too much in there given a single patch might wipe it out though.
I tried the bridge thing too but turned it into a huge cannibal trap over time and zipline everywhere instead.
Makes sense!
Yes, Broadbent + The Forest = Creativity and Super Entertainment. Thanks.
Fathers of the forest
Yes
bro i can't wait for new episodes this series is so good
I actually live in that second maintenance bunker with the fire axe, it's a pretty good base for me
Much easier way to get logs in the cave. Build the small shelter (the one with logs sticks and rocks) and you can hold "C" and remove logs from the blueprint. It takes some practice to find the right spot, but it can be done and you can pull 50 logs in about 30 sec
This is where my group built at on our play through and building on the lake during winter is sickk
really enjoying these videos dude, Keep them coming please!
Broadbent: this cave is sooo easy oh my god
Farket: *internally screams while uttering very loud complaints*
You wanted the chainsaw but you went away from the mall that holds it
Me and my friend built a base on the island and a bridge, you can do that by building a tower under water near the island and then from there its pretty easy.
When Broadbent got shoved into the void was so funny
Love the 20 min video! Great content, 30 mins would be even more amazing. Cheers man!
"As long as you stay focussed... oh cloth... Arrgh!" 😆
I think this game is less survival more building.
@broadbent What if u tried firing the grapple from inside and anchor it to the far wall inside the cave, at that point u should be able to put the logs on the line at the entrance which would send them right in
(I don’t own the game so I don’t know if it works any better or worse but I wanted to point it out as something to test)
This is the best SOF series I have found. Please keep it up.😊
So nice to get back from work and watch your videos!!!

Keep going through the caves. They're endless and fuckin amazing. They're rich ass spas and indoor mansions, malls it's stunning
The jank reminds me The Forest during beta, lol! Glad the old tricks can still work.
Whoa what is that structure at 17:30 with the spears on it
Dude that back cave entrance glitch was hilarious. Great video mate!
The Upside Down
Urban planning for the cannibals. So thoughtful for real.

Lol the chair to get out of the glitch was really smart
consistent uploads>> love the long time dedication ❤

i don't think he can put log in ground, because manual building mode didn't work.
@@illiacvie oh my bad!
Love the videos and the commentary my dude keep up the great content.
Really enjoying these
i love this serie i be waitibg for the eps

11:55 i love this game
Can you disassemble the shelves then and use it to dup logs?
Your videos are amazing dude
As an idea for cleaning cave hit items with melee to one corner and build a something in front of them to hide them😉
You strong af one handed digging
Maybe if you could glitch through the map like what happened with the mutant.. you might be able to build where the cave would be. I think it may be possible because of the way you can see the blueprints in the cave.
There’s another item to loot near shovel. I think it’s a weapon attachment. Been awhile since I did the cave. Maybe an outfit also
the game heard you were building in a cave, and maybe you wanna build underground too lmao! 12:00
20:58 "Making the Island way more accessible for cannables & mutants"
Them: would walk over the bridge
Your Companion: Jumps on the ice... 0.o
3:47 I like he's like imitated her

Nice every new day new episode in estonian 1am
Northern ingenuity!
Broadbent having a good time with the views
"as long as you stay focused"
"oooo cloth.. AAA"
Just found your channel tonight man supposed to be in bed so I can get up at 4 for work but shit you got a new sub great bud man
Chainsaw is in the 3d printer bunker near the zipline gun cave.
Any unmarked cave 'entrance' is generally an exit.
Ironically that bunker is where the chainsaw is you were literal steps away from it xD
Keep doing what u do i love this series
I like the upload consistency 👌🏽👌🏽
And gotta love the vids
Oh my gosh, you were literally right by the chainsaw. When you turned around at 11:10 because you said you were cheating the game, there was a doorway in that room to a theatre room and the chainsaw was in there.
Love this series
You can simply throw the logs into the entrance and then enter, you should get the E pick up command if you look back at the opening. It’s pretty easy.
How fresh is this game!? It feels so good to be back in the new Sons of the Forest!!!
Love your Vids Mate 💙✌
Very excited for the cave base!!
New episode not even 24 hrs from the last nice!!
Amazing content keep it up👍
There’s a great cave for a base where the big lake is, there’s a little boat in it
sweet with the log zip thing deal👍🏻
The Sipline is not necessary. You can just go to the entrance with the logs and drop them so that they get stuck in the entrance. Then you go in the Cave and can grab the logs
That’s weird armor for days for those mutants that drown 😂
Bro these videos are fire I been tuning in to watch every day . I don’t think u should delete episodes like u did last episode
Shouldn’t
You can put traps on the bridge, iirc you don't trigger your own traps in this game. Worth looking into
Dude you litterally came so close to get the chainsaw ! Nice video !
the winter caves is the best
did you get the pistol flash light in that cave ??
That chair will be nostalgic
Hey nice vid as always!
I was wondering, will you create a bunker base just like in the snow on the flrst game? I loved this base and even created it in the other game and i wanted to know if you would do an other one on the new game.
Keep up you're doing so well!
You can install a build anywhere cheat/mod to allow you to build in caves, been doing it myself. Now i don't know if it allows you to build in every cave though.
Best cave to cheese build is the cave with the single skeleton sitting in the chair in the center.
What if you made floor out of benches in thw cave base? the clutter would be hidden under it
*I’ve always fancied Water Bases, something about breathing underwater*
This series are the best!! Go keeping on!! 🤗😇
Kelvin walks like he's hit code brown
1:40 I think it's purposefully done.
There's a cave in the mountains that you can walk straight in, no doorway, large center room but flat, but I do wonder if they limited the building in said cave or not because it does not have that front door you have to squeeze through. Will do some research real quick.
Lmao that cave exit you found where u ziplined into wouldve gotten you to the chainsaw without the keycard
