      The Dead Rooster POI is an excellent starter base. Strong walls, rectangular form and lots of room, it has a second story (staircase and overhang), or you can use the basement if you so desire, and only two main points of entry - a front and rear door.

      I'm a fan of the gas station, usually near a trader - the one with 9 or so covered pumps on one side, 'truck' pumps on the side. Base on top of the building, fighting position on top of the covered pump area. It's a little janky as the top of the covered platform are half-blocks but I just build another layer on top then one or more paths up

    Really enjoyed this one. I think a part 2 looking at temporary hoard bases in lower tier structures would be interesting. As is "ah, that building there is very cheap to hoard base for day 7 or 14". The ones in this video, while doable in the first week, one is still trying to get a foothold looting and doing a bit of levelling.

    The silo farm is such a good place to makes a base, so much strength in the concrete and redundant design. It was my base for my first undead legacy playthrough, I recommend it 100%
    The supermarket is intriguing me now, I'm going to give that a look in the near future.

    One thing that stops me from using POIs as horde bases even though I would really love to: constant paranoia that I missed some sort of block, path etc that would cause the zombies to go haywire and beat through random blocks. I still remember getting ambushed from behind because I missed that one possible path. But in terms of flair this looks like so much fun, especially the mansion tower at the start. Thanks for taking all this time to test it out.

    • @masterofthedeathwing2839
      @masterofthedeathwing2839 Год назад

      i use the laundry room, the lip around the top where the windows are, you can make it slightly bigger with bars, the Zs run up the stairs and just chill in the laundry room 3 blocks below you, so you can molotov them

    Not sure if anyone else mentioned this below, but do not underestimate the power of the Working Stiff Tools POI (The version with the gardening center on the side & the perimeter wall in the back). I minimally converted this POI very early game (before the day 7 horde night) and I'm still here on day 150! The beauty of this POI is the perimeter wall which can be used with a ramp to get them all in a long conga line and you can pick them off easily. All my farming, base and even landing strip for the gyro is up top.

    • @AzureFiver1302
      @AzureFiver1302 Год назад +2

      I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!!! MY MAN 💪 That is my GOTO base poi it's has so many resources to scavenge and lots of building resources, I always build in the office upstairs just fix the wall the walls sit, and then rebuild the courtyard to works as a horde area. Such a superb POI 👌

    • @teamscootr0n459
      @teamscootr0n459 Год назад +2

      @@AzureFiver1302 It is the best!! Plug the holes around the perimeter of the main bldg, add some stairs/a ramp to the front corner of the perimeter wall (which will attract them to walk along the entire wall), then where the wall ends (on the garden center side) add a stair/ramp up to a melee kill box with hatch, for those early nights when you don't have much ammo yet.
      Do all that and you are in business with One of the most scalable POI's in the game.
      Plus it always comes with a free vending machine in the back on the ground floor!

    I just started getting back into the game and I chose the Savage Country store just down the road from the grocery store as my base, and I've been doing the castle defense style of horde defense which had not been working. Two of these POIs are within reasonable walking distance from there which is nice to see, I'm definitely giving one of these a try

    Barn_02....it is so good and very easy to make into a horde base (even comes with some free piggies for early food and excellent farming areas as well). Used it up to day 59 in a recent play-through without issue (assuming you do not use Glock9 style 300% block damage crazy settings or anything!). Excellent video by the way, some really useful stuff in there. More content like this please:)

  • @rawgage9159
    @rawgage9159 Год назад +1

    Hey Tem, Red Masa would make a great one once it's cleared out with the landmines and concrete walls; or a trailer in the trailer park works well where it's mostly steel that can take a helluva beating!
    An addition one could use to manage the zombie pathing better is set a ramp-frame set on its side right in front of the bottom hatch/handrail block that shuttles them off the path when they pile up and push forward. The key to making it work is there has to be some type of hood or roof over the path only 2 blocks high so they can't stack on top of each other. Added protection can be given to the roof part using plates on surface that are upgraded. I like to have the walkway one block lower than my fighting position so that I have a downward melee attack view as they cycle around and around.
    Awesome video and I have so many thoughts and suggestions to share but will do it in small doses to save you the headache 😄👍

  • @amyminty3165

    I love using the Box Factory as an early game horde base. Easy to knock out the wood planks on the third floor to make a fighting position in the office. And I don't bother with knocking out the security grate on the stairs.. I just add to the rubble on the far side for a nice long ramp.

    @TizonaAmanthia Год назад

    man this must have taken a lot of effort to put together! I'm pretty iffy about comandeering exhisting structures, in favor of like your borderlands series and making my own structure. that said, my last series, I holed up in that furniture shop, had a garden on the lower "storfront" roof, the crafting and storage in the back "warehouse" second floor, a bit of a trapped room on the ground floor for any miscreants, and the horde was fought in the street one of those Jawoodle death corridor style elevated hoarde fighting positions, that had a skywalk to the main base. juuuuust far enough away that zombies mostly didn't spawn inside the base.
    it worked well enough, but so much demolition to get it situated properly, so much upgrading to make it durable.... hence my preference of made to order. and I do like the "you don't fight where you sleep" mentality.

    • @elevown
      @elevown Год назад

      All i do is find a 3 story house and knock out half the stairs and half the ladder to the attic for fallback, and put some hatches down too in the doors of floor 2, then put spikes down on floor 1 if i feel like it and just defend the stairs as best you can- not that toyll have much ranged on day or 14- but it doesnt really matter- those first few hordes cant do enough damage to take out the house or get to you. That sorta base wont last beyond horde 4 or 5 at best tho without alot more work.
      But besides from a few hatches which are not super necissary you dont need blocks to make it. Just some destruction.

    • @GunsNerdsandSteel
      @GunsNerdsandSteel  Год назад +8

      I didn't talk about it much due to time constraints, but all of these POIs featured have a very large and flat area in which you could build a dedicated horde base.

    • @azirus
      @azirus Год назад +3

      For UL: you have to find a 1story high POI (a lot in business district) ideally made from concrete. I did some counting and I think you need like 12 blocks to build a bare minimum (4 for ladder, 2 for walkway and 6 for the wall - from the bottom 3, 2, 2) to be poorly similar to what GNS had in his UL series and then you can basically build on it and expand it for some time.
      So a bit of chopping/stone mining for 5 per block material and destroying of sofas etc to get nails.

  • @elevown
    @elevown Год назад +3

    I LOVE the silo's they are friggin indestructable and take almost no modification. Not how you used it.
    For theSilos, knock out the bottom few ladders at both ends and a bit of the escalator so they cant get up. reinforce some of the floor of the top corridor thing and put spikes on the roof where you stand. put bars along the tops of the silos joining them all.
    Now just stay up there and shoot down all horde night- from outside atop the silos and on your bars, and also from inside through the grates - and throw pipe bombs and mollys. you can put spikes and blade traps on the floor below too if you like - tho they will require maintenace.
    Those silos are just indestructible. The Zs will occationally knock out a block or 2 and tunnel inside the sand in a silo- after they do that, replace the inner blocks and outer with more concrete so the silos will bve even stronger.
    I never had even a single silo significantly damaged but if one is, you have 8 silos you can easily shift them to by moving about up top. No way the whole thing will ever collapse.
    You do need ammo and/or bombs mollys ofcourse for this style - at least if you want any XP. The silos are so strong tho you could easily stay up there and just wait out horde night without fighting till you get the means to do so and it will need not much repairs after.

    I haven't played in a few months, but your old tutorial on the pit horde base has worked out well enough. I think maybe the first couple horde nights I had a small defensible position. Now, it took some time, but the more I built the more I was able to use it especially with stronger and stronger enemies coming with each horde but it's been my little end-game utopia. Did something drastically change since I last played?

  • @leftlotus1677
    @leftlotus1677 Год назад +1

    It's not a POI but I like to build a murder hole pillar type base for early game. 10x7x3, you fight on the fifth level. Solid stairwell with a solid walkway to the murder hole. Plates on the outside and one in the hole to stop them from crawling through. Spikes up top for birds. They're cheap and you can toss them up in about a half a day, faster if you make cobble blocks instead of upgrading. You can also add 'L' shaped 'wings' to run traps across the front walkway. You'll also need bars to stop the monkeys from jumping over to the wings. If you get it all upgraded to steel, you'll last well into end game. I've blown up several demo's on the walkway and it held up fine. I like it because it's a good melee base for early game when guns and ammo are sparse. The weakness is the walkway, if they destroy two blocks down, the pathing breaks. You can fix that by lengthening and widening the walkway, just remember to make it narrow to the murder hole. It's not a good youtuber base, mainly because you're pretty damn safe and I know you guys like to shake it up in that regard but for folks just playing the game, it's a solid horde base. I usually toss one up for the first two or three horde nights while working on a mega base elsewhere.

    Thanks GNS Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year!

    The grain silo base is much better if you knock out the two bottom ladder blocks and... that's it! You can AFK up there for several horde nights before having to repair anything. They get confused and just sort of run in circles on the ground under you without really breaking much.

    Yooo, nice content, man!
    I'm about to start a channel with some 7 days buildings and tricks, and just started living at the drive-in. That center parking lot is for sure an amazing area for a main horde base. Soon I'll share the zombie blender with everyone.
    Peace!

    I'm coming up to my first horde night in my current game, and I have yet to come across El Chapo's. My previous game I used it as my horde base, but I used the entire house, tower top, and guest house/exercise room as my main fighting area. Placed open frames as ways to shoot zombies on the floor, and used the tall fence as a choke point. Using powered sledges to help boop off zombies so they would have to come back round allows for a more controlled line so you don't get over loaded. I have a feeling I'm going to have to find a different POI sadly.

    I found a concrete ruins in one of the cities that was just the shell of a skyscraper's elevator shaft... built at like floor two with vantage points to shoot down on them, and run around on the walls of the pre-existing building. all I needed was enough resources to build a shell I could store my stuff in. Lasted there until my real base was ready at about day 40 and had no problems. cheap, day one no issues, fast... I started at late in the first day and had a spot that lasted until mid game. 1,000,000% would recommend or use again myself. I have no idea what it would be named though.

    My solution to zombies ducking or jumping as pointed out at the end of the video is a simple 3x3 square of railings on face on the exterior of the building. In the center of the square place a double pole horizontally. I''ve been doing this since the new blocks were added and haven't had problems. Railings can be replaced with plates on the exterior anywhere you don't want visibility, like on the sides, although I sometimes like a 3x3 square of visibility. Be aware cops can barf on you through railings.

    On the inside the three center blocks are replaced as follows; railing on face with the exterior railing. On top of that a single horizontal I-beam placed on top of the bottom rail. On top of that another railing on face with the exterior railing.
    You can even triple this up with yet another railing, double pole, railing for those crazy mods. Some spider zombies will jump into the double pole area, but they're blocked by the I-beam and you can melee them. Everything else will stay standing. As long as you have an overhang they shouldn't stack. The railings at the 3 block high position just make it easy for headshots of 3 high zombies if you're playing mods that have them. Otherwise, you can just use back-to-back plates or plate, block, plate. Reach with melee shouldn't be a problem. Shoot dogs and spiders through the bottom rail.
    There are some variations, but that's basically it. The idea is just to have a flush exterior defense. Anything that sticks out can cause them to either duck or give them something to stand on. There are other blocks you can use, this is just my default.
    Edit: I'm not sure how important it is, but I almost always have a pair of electric fences in front of this defense. I can't remember seeing normal zomies attempting to crawl through the center, but it might be possible without the fences. I think they should be blocked by the I-beam anyway.

    I've play tested a number of custom bases in vanilla and the one that had the most success to convenience ratio is a 7x9 2 story with entrance pit preferably dug back into a mountain. 4 block deep pit with single exit and blade traps on the roof for birds, 5 block interior is enough for all crafting tables and the 9 block dimension is for a storage box wall on the back side. Day 7000 horde was simple with concrete primary and some steel in front and on security gate bridge.

    There is a big red farm poi that if you clear and go to the very top there is a platform hanging by chains. No construction required and you are totally safe for at least the first few hoard nights.

  • @tubaduba9702
    @tubaduba9702 Год назад +9

    Top consideration for me if I'm looking for a POI base is "Am I going to want to do trader quests here?" A couple of the POIs you've selected here are good trader quests and you'll likely want the resources/loot to respawn (if you're looking to play a day 30+ game). Also, something you didn't consider is if it is a POI that can be cleared and converted into a horde base early game. Many of the build out showed were mid/late game.

    • @johnd6877
      @johnd6877 Год назад +1

      he did demo with stone tools and only went to cobblestone...thats early game, not even close to mid/late...clearing out any of these shouldnt be an issue if you go slow

    • @hessian144
      @hessian144 Год назад

      you can clear tear 4 early game as long as you know what your walking into. i was surprised by alpha 20 when i was looting the burnt biome by trader gen and had a white and a cop spawn like day 3. even loaded down so i couldn't run on on normal settings they were killable. then again i almost always die to dogs and that's an easy zombie lol

    I play on console and found a trailer park with two of them being made almost entirely out of reinforced steel. Made on the horde base and the other a storage base. It's the same trailer that the trader uses

    you know, id say the supermarket one might be a bit much for a day 1, since there are dogs there that spawn from secret walls, and are triggered with a group of zombies, sometimes with a feral

    The Oil tank is my Favourite. All u Have to do is destroy the Ladder , put some Bars on top for not falling down.
    The u Have to make some Corridors for Walkinge the Zombies in and out.
    Then u can work with PipeBombs, Molotovs and some Guns.
    Its hard to destroy for Zombies, because there are so many Blocks around the Oil Tank :D

      That's my favorite too. It already has strong outside walls for defence and mausoleum (?) beneath is great for storage.

    • @TilyXR6
      @TilyXR6 Год назад +2

      @@mortariana yes that’s the one, the big mausoleum underneath makes for a good home base and use above ground as a horde base
      The new church is pretty handy too but not as fortified on the outside

    Hi I try the horde base in the Bobs Boars and it's working pretty well. Im still learning this game but just a few minutes ago I defeat a 56 day horde. I messed up smth with building cuz I cant drop zombie by doors from one site cuz when I trying to connect the 0,5 pillar and doors te contruction fall dawn. But all in all this is a great space for a base. I make some Improvements like robotics Hamers but they not working property always and I don't know what Im doing wrong. But this is a great horde base and Im curious how far I can go with it. I also thinking about build my own horde base but im pretty weak builder unfortunetly. Anyway great job with that one.

    My friend and I have been using the Grain silos recently, but we have found that if you upgrade the ladder too much, they don't see the ladder as a viable method to reach you.
