honestly the most annoying thing that happens at night is when somebody spawns near your base, and they can't see the very simple crouch way to get in and they remove one of your wall and the employee just comes in.
imo I think the shelf base is my favorite, you have access to a lot of pallets, its off the ground (depending on what layer you build on), protects you from larger staff, can have multiple escape and entrance points, and is a good community base if everyone there works together. It takes a lot of resources but once established It can feel like a good home within the hostile IKEA.
I personally like using bunk bed spawn areas for bases due to the fact that there’s already 2 walls already there for you and you can then use a bunk bed along with something small to make a door (alternatively, use a bunk bed as a wall and block the gap next to the ladder with something small)
Tips and random facts for new players: Build a base in shelves since there are lots of pallets and ladders there! You can also try to get a badge by trying to pick up the heavy wooden box which is located in the shelves, and of course it takes long since it's already stated in it's name. "Heavy". You have to be determined if you really want to get the badge. Try to find a shelf near food areas so you don't have to run too far away from your base when you forget to waypoint it. Remember to waypoint your bases and food areas so you don't have to find random food places far away and accidently lose your base. Now, food gives you a certain amount of energy depending on what food it is, the food that gives the most energy is the chocolate which is located in a floating house. The floating house has a very rare chance of spawning so you may have to server hop for it. If you put the chocolate in your inventory, you will get a badge called " The sacred chocolate". Foods that also give a great amount of energy are Striped Donuts, Ice cream, burgers and meatballs. I guess also Apples. Food respawns every Monday and Friday so that's why you should build a base near some food areas! There are lots of different rooms called "plots". These plots have different items in them which you can get to make your base or make your base there. The rarest items are the Gamecube, which spawns in the Living Room plot. The chocolate is also one of the rarest items in 3008. The chocolate is actually written in Swedish and translates to: The Good Chocolate, which it's original says "DEN GODA CHOKLAD". The chocolate is actually also based off a real item in the real IKEA store, but with a different name. If an employee(the humanoid entities with different sizes, colors and types.) is chasing you at night, push them. Push an employee by facing them and clicking on them when the small red cross appears in the middle of your screen. They only become hostile at night, the only occasion where they are hostile in the day is the "Foggy day" phase. A foggy day usually occurs every 16 days, and has a low chance of happening on other days. Foggy day makes employees stronger and when you get hit by one on Foggy Day, you will lose a significant amount of health(40 health will be gone). You won't be able to see from far distances on Foggy Days which is dangerous since you might not see employees coming at you. Blood Night occurs every 10 days, and has a very low chance of spawning on other days. A nighttime phase lasts 5 minutes or 300 seconds. If the server is laggy the times of the phases might change. A daytime phase on the other hand lasts 6 minutes or 360! Even if night seems to be longer, it isn't. Again the time of the phase may change if due to the lag of the server. Tell me if I missed something.
Another very rare item is Djungelskog, the bear. He has a 5% chance of spawning in the tv bedroom. Also, you can get another badge by jumping on his stomach from a height that you would die at.
I usually create something more than a door. I create these small, _small_ gaps (referred as Keyholes imo) in at least one wall that players can turn and walk through, while Employees can't. These keyholes can also have a ceiling so that a crouching player can access but most taller employees never can. Keyholes also shouldn't have a wall to the left or right that is sticking out from the outside, as employees can run at the nearest player in your base and end up slipping through the keyhole. Basically, if you're not able to create some air lock for the entrance of your base (intuitive but not exactly safe still), Keyholes will usually be your easy entrance both in and out without consequence.
Here are some tips for building from *my* own experience! 1. To save time, plan out your base building. For day, build this side of your wall so you can rush back to your temporary base before it’s night. 2. If you’re building a big base, it’ll really help to have a temporary base! So while you’re building, if it suddenly turns night and your base isn’t finished, you can stay there for the night. 3. ROOFS! It may not seem like employees can get onto your roof, but they can manage. I usually build my base out of pallets and they can climb the patterns on the pallet. And if you aren’t using something with a solid pattern, (fridge, pallet, lamp, etc. etc. etc.) they can climb onto the excess furniture around and into the base!
i believe that instead of putting doors, you can use like a table or something flat and place it low enough that you can crawl under it but not walk in it. there are some pros and cons to this tho doors are safer from all employees while crouch entrances might invite shorter ikea employees doors take a longer time to open/close but you can atleast sprint through it while crouch entrances make u slower cuz u have to crouch but its a easier way if ur getting chased in addition with saving time for a base, if it just turned into night time have a table, bathtub, or shelf around and take one of those items and place it on a wall so that you can crouch under it but you can’t walk into it. its basically a crouch entrance but it leads to nothing but a wall. this way, most employees won’t be able to get u but make sure to add on to ur emergency area if u see some short employees around
To fix the problem with crouch doors, you can get a bathtub and place it sidways to a wall. To enter, you just crouch into the bathtub, then circle around the wall you place it in. This is basically implementing a slide door with a crouch door for very easy and effective protection. The crouch door will stop tall employees, while the bathtub with a wall halfway through the middle will take care off the short ones.
The con of smaller employees is why I always make my ground bases force you to crouch AND go sideways. The employees thin enough to possibly go through are never small, so they won’t get in whilst smaller employees are usually a little wider, which would be stopped by the extra thin gap.
i definitely agree, stealing bases, griefing bases, or negatively impacting any base that is not yours is terrible! heres a quick story of mine. my friends and i love making house-like bases in this game. we can spend up to 1-6 hours just making our base. there was this one time we made an absolute mansion! it was two stories and it had 5 bedrooms. (there were five of us) we were still in our construction phase of our base. it was nighttime when somebody broke in to our base and were pleading to stay for the night. we said no as nicely as we could, because we feared those with ill intent. this then ended up being a horrible decision, because we were right about them. they tried to guilt trip us but failed. see, we collected penguins because they were special to us. we made our own little made up thing where this penguin was our lord. (backstory warning, scroll towards next paragraph to skip) it was bloodnight when a friend brought a penguin back. we were awed by it and asked for safety and protection from it---and our wish was granted. then this player decided to throw a fit and stole one of our many penguins that were chilling on the couch. they started running away and i took after them. i started chasing them until they ran out of stamina and would inevitably place it down. this eventually happened and surrendered the penguin after saying "deal with it, you already have enough." i took the penguin back and started running towards our base to return it. yes, we could have found a new penguin, but no penguin could ever be replaceable. each one was significant to us. we were building happily until we find out that the player had set a waypoint at our base. they returned during nighttime and tore down our walls, then left the game. we eventually repaired the base, but it was saddening to experience that interaction with that menace.
When stuff like this happen,I usually take a screenshot of the usernames of people in the server,so if they leave,I can still report their account I was only able to find 5 penguins before and someone came and stole two of them,I remember me and my best friend panicking at that time and trying to get it back,they eventually gave one back,but they took the other one and ran away,at that time,it was almost night time,so I needed to quickly go back to my base and I lost them
Usually when I have nowhere to go, I find a bunk bed and I use a table, pallet, or dresser to block the opening. The quickest block would be the dresser because it is spawned closest to the bunk bed. Most likely, this works because the table (if big enough), covers the whole opening as well as the pallet..but the dresser covers most but leaves some open space. Also make sure the bunk bed is secured on the wall or employees could squeeze in. I recommend this tip for tall employees.
i have another tip: you wanna make sure is that if you don’t wanna move your pallet/wall you can make a crouch space or thinned space that you and other players can only go in but the only downside for this is that somebody sees your base and doesn’t see the crouch/thinned space and removes a pallet/wall and the employee comes in
I personally find clunky bases a form of art itself, it really gives a post apocalyptic feeling to it. The uses of beds as walls and chairs as ceilings. Amazing stuff
Oh and another good is ONLY USE WAYPOINTS ON IMPORTANT STUFF! Use them on food locations or your house, not random item locations. You don't have an infinite amount, so save them for good things.
I sadly never used waypoints while I made my huge skybase, I didn’t know I was sprinting and when I tried to crouch and I slid off my base and died. (I was like 200 studs in the air)
@@minghaoin If you really don't want someone to ruin your base,then scroll down servers and if there you see a server with less people then 5(like 4,3 people)and join that because it has less chance of having a grifer,or just look at the avatars of people that are in the server,If there are atleast 2,3,4 players that costed money(robux)for their avatar,then join it.
When I make a base I often like to pillar up to a sign with ladders, then bridge out to a wall or pillar. It makes it harder for grieves to grief it because I can remove the entrance ladders, and then they would have to scale the wall/pillar which I can defend against. It seems to work because I made 2 griefers rq because they couldn’t take down my base. So ig what I would say is building a little pitstop before actual base is useful to slow griefers down
Tip: if your near a ice cream or cafeteria and it turns night snd you have literally nothing to save yourself crouch and go inside the glass thingy Edit: wow thanks for all the likes :D
I usually bunker in abandoned bases and make improvements to them. I remember people used to make sky-paths connected to other bases complete with a set of lights to guide you during the night.
Based. :) This really helped and I totally agree with the neighbor tip. I have died because of other people breaking in my house because of employees. Also because people sometimes are cruel and break your base. I have experienced it and some people love to ruin it for others. Be careful not to run into those people.
My Tip: always try and build a survival box or triangle (if u are with other ppl or can't find something to close u in) Also, Just Stay With Other ppl.
My way of making a way inside is by making a draw bridge out of TV's so when an employee tries to jump over it'll just fall. My base is actually pretty simple and helps you survive, I made stairs that go in a circle to confuse the AI of employees and made a sky base, but this sky base has more security, it has a draw bridge, a first floor in case of a breach and a way to block the stairs off with either a tv, a pallet or a cabinet
I like to be a hermit, constructing a small but highly variable hut with a crouch+strafe doorway. Sometimes I put carpets between the bunk beds, put a table to cap off the opening in the outer bed and use whatever else to make the doorway, or put something on top of a shelf. It's usually small and just for a night or two, before moving onto somewhere new.
What happens whenever I play SCP 3008 with my friend: We find a good place and start to build a base Somebody comes and steals material from our base We scream at them to leave The person takes our food We die and then it happens again
Hm, I’d say that you should live an suburban area. In all, get like 1-2 (nice) neighbors. More than that and maybe you should worry a bit. Also, IKEA corners are usually very secluded.
Another really annoying thing is yesterday i built a really good base with a lot hard work it took me around 3 hours and it has soo much food then a girl came to my base took my food and DESTROYED MY BASE like threw every material and she wasnt even trying to creat her own base she just wanted to destroy my vase :/
When making skybases, people think they are safe if they use ladders but what they don’t know is that employees can still climb up ladders, the best thing to do is make a platform to push them off
Bruh, I have a hell of a story to tell regarding base-stealing. After I had gotten done with my shelf base, There was a bacon hair man who had shown up at my base. Of course, I let him in, assuming he wasn't going to grief, he stayed with me for a few days, but then after that, he started to take parts of my building away without me knowing. During nighttime, I had caught him taking parts of my base and immediately decided to pick up the floor that was underneath the bacon hair man and I dropped him to die with the employees that were gathering around my house. A few in-game days after that, a group of griefers had shown up to my house to take the house apart. It was nighttime at the time that happened and as they were moving parts of my house back to their base, I followed them back home and I decided to grief THEIR base instead. To add salt on the wound, I decided to grief their house so that employees could get easy access. I decided to pull a kamikaze moment and I whistled the employees toward their house, the employees had managed to kill all the griefers alongside me, but I had set a death waypoint to their house before I died. Once day broke, I went back to the house and later found out that the house was later abandoned and still had employees inside it. Soooo yeah, don't steal bases, or parts of them. You'll come across crazy vengeance-seeking people like me who will do whatever it takes to kill you.
If you find an abandoned base, make sure that base truly is abandoned, maybe the base just has some people who left to find food, my rule is 5 days before moving in, and even after you move in, add more to the base!
bro I swear I spawned in and found some medkits, and then I found a shelf base. there were 2 people in the base, and I gave them some of my medkits. Then, they had the audacity to say, "Uhhhh, go away!" So I did. I then saw them in the chat, panicking.
for the base location one, just to reccommend if your getting chased by a worker, put a waypoint in your base i do that all the time... when you die you can look how many studs is your base👍 soo u could get safe!
Even if im late, heres another tip! Before "Base Stealing", he shows a trick with bookshelves am I right? Well, lets say you can't find any bookshelves and it becomes night. Try to find a bunk bed, get in the lower bed and close the hole with a dresser or any items that can cover the hole (where you came in from) I use that trick alot everytime I join a server because it can turn into night any second ( or at night ). I found this trick out when I first played 3008, its really helpful if your in some emergencies. Also, do set a waypoint in your base..
One time i built my base next to a base with two friends inside. I was keeping my space trying not to annoy them. Eventually, after two nights, they came up to my base and took my walls and everything to their base. This is why I never build next to people. Another time, I built a small base with my friend. We turned our base into a small blanket fort(out of beds). This group of 16 people came up to our base and just moved in with no warning. With so many people we had to expand our base. After 10-20 nights/days in game the base was getting broken into by lots of employees. This is why I like to keep people to a maximum of 6 in my base(but i prefer 2-4)
I built a base, a secure and good one, then somehow withing 5 minutes of me finishing it, 4-6 people all came and just moved in. Somehow or another a bunch of people who didn't know each other just happend to be near my base at night, and all decided to move in. Eventually all except 1 left, and it was finally peaceful again. Someone asked me a question in chat so I went to look it up on my phone, and withing the 30 seconds of me turning away from my computer, the last person living there opened all of the walls, left, and let the employees kill me. I had left a waypoint but the bast was basically destroyed.
ok so i think the best door you can have is where you make a small gap that you can only go through by going sideways. you can also make it short so you have to crouch and go sideways. i suggest blocking it on blood nights tho.
Yeah I'm very lucky every time i join a Server in the game everybody's just kind and everytime they go to my base they're friendly and I even gave them food sometimes newbies stays on my base until we became friends and also I create location based on where the foods spawns like kitchen, etc. and also bc the location i built was also far from players some also make their bases on stacked things yeah base stealing The Funny thing abt Base Stealing was that some players leave it to those newbies bc they're gonna go afk and also everytime I join a server and built a base there full of foods and players start to enter my base (sometimes bc they have no base or they got chased by scp's) they dont touch the food and sometimes they wait for me to respond if it is ok to eat food especially if they're so hungry low energy or health
some of my tips for surviving and building: number one if you spawn next to an employee at night you want to climb up somewhere and punch the employee if there's multiple you want to run away as far as you can and grab some tubs at least two tubs put one next to a wall climb crouch in there and put the other one in front of you and if you have a gap that is teeny tiny don't worry about it the employees cannot get to you but if it's like a huge gap they will get you number two if you build a big base it would take longer to fill up and make cuz let's say that you only need one type of material and those are small shelves it will take a long time because if you're in the area where there's no shelves you will have to go really far and let's say that you forget to put away point this is why wait points are very important in the game because I've seen many people die and then forget where their bases and then I always see someone helping them fine with their bases because that usual person is that person's neighbor but then that's when an employee comes and gets them both so I do highly recommend I would just have four people with you in a group because let's say that for friends playing together and one gets one is dying you want to give that friend some food and then punch the employee back to try to defend so let's say two friends punch and defend and another give some food and another gets at least some stuff to cover up morning you guys want to find some food Chapter 2: food resources what to eat and what not to eat. So let's say that you're hungry a few minutes in the game and it's still morning time so that's a good thing and you find soda pop everywhere but every time someone walk to near it and they look like they're hungry they just don't get it and they really die the reason for this is because soda pop actually lowers your health bar and the reason for this is because of the chemicals so that's why I hardly do not recommend drinking soda pop but if it's for your energy then I do highly recommend but if you have no energy and you're halfway on the health you should not drink soda pop just try to look for something else but if it's the only thing that's there and nobody else is using it try to find an abandoned base that has a lot of food in it eat some of that but if it has some sort of Pop don't eat it Chapter 3: sky base sky base sky base! I just want to say if you see a pillar you should grab some resources that are close right next to the pillow the reason why is because sky bases are the absolute best way to not get caught but sometimes the employees see you so if you're starting from the ground and the staircase all the way up to a building you don't want to do that I do highly recommend building a staircase and then building a against a wall and it should be at least three posters tall and let's say that a person really needs help and you know them so let's say that you still have the staircase but it's a secret way to get up you tell them to remove some of the ladders so that the employees can't get up to them but the worst employees are the tall ones so you want to make a secret way on how to get up and avoid the tall employees because some employees know how to climb up and down the ladder. Chapter 4: trap trap trap! Okay so this one maybe confusing but it'll be easier if you think hard enough so if you spawn in the area and it's night time you want to do what I said on the last few chapters grab at least two tubs or something that is empty inside and you can use a tub or an empty shelf put those two together against the wall and you'll be safe from the employees until morning so now it is morning time a few minutes later and you think of trapping the employees but you don't know how because some employees are smart enough so it be so it'll be harder to trap them when they have some smart IQ so for this if you want to trap some of the employees that attack you here are all the resources you will need in my opinion that helped me: 1 glass tables The reason why I think that using glass tables in my opinion is so you can see the employees so if you ever leave the game and someone comes near your base and they see a hundred employees trapped in one base they'll think that oh that base is probably dangerous because then it'll probably be is it when they say whose base is this trapped with 100 employees in it and if nobody says anything they'll probably move in and try that same trick then this will be going on for games and games so your idea is helping other people as well who are new to the game! :) 2 a lot of beds No these beds are not for sleeping for huge crowd of employees actually you need to form a upside down t so like it forms a so like you went out on left up and besides you so behind you there is an entrance for the employees to come and you punch them down that and then they hit the t and the upside down t bounces them down on the ground so when it's morning time you can see the employees in how many you've trapped they will try to walk around and get out but if there is a small Gap that some of the short employees can't get through you want to grab something that is short as them and get two of them is stack them up together but if there is a huge gap that you cannot find anything to cover up with the employees will get out climb back up and kill you! Chapter 5: waypoint, food etc! COMING SOON IF THIS GETS 20 LIKES AT LEAST:)
If you have a shelf, base, you can pretty much get supplies so at night you can keep putting planks in a pile or getting food during day when you do this, especially putting planks in a pile, it means at night you can build, which means it can make night useful and day more useful
In my personal experience (note this is about a month of playing), I like to grab a bunk bed and go to one of those green and purple rooms, grab a load of pallets and/or queen beds and block of one side (I usually take the purple side). Then once the overall house is done, I make a waypoint and run like mad crazy to find food courts, playgrounds, and places with pallets, making waypoints and collecting stuff along the way. Over time, I slowly add rooms and furniture like food storage, a tv room, a bed room, and a enclosed hideout. Its not the greatest base and sometimes I build a little small, but its always cosy and I like it :)
Hints for making bases in the game if you spawn near a wall start building cause it will be easier to start cause if collect food it's gonna be night so the bad idea to do making a small base cause you can't get out and what I recommend a big base the size of the wall to help people have many food to eat cause it's alot to take care if you make a high one make sure it's on a metal place cause it's safer to stay that's what I reccomend
The thing I hate about 3008 is the fact me and my irl friends were making a base and then my roblos online friend came into the base bc employees And he was just like opens wall base yay but he made the employees come in and then we all died -Lesson if ur being chased never open someone base walls it’s really annoying ,btw don’t open the walls just accept ur fate if u open the walls tho we all get killed if u just keep running only u will get killed and they survive So >:( very mad
one of my fav ways to build a base using a pillar or a shelf shelf: theres a lot of pallets and u can make a huge base pillar u can make the base very high and use a bit of some parkoar for it not make it not simple small or low
I am not sure if someone already commented this, but I just want to mention that if you want to make "doors", just use the TV stand. If you go through the TV stand from the side, you can actually squeeze in and it is the perfect space for hiding from employees, and I'm pretty sure there are no bone thin employees. Even if there are, it is rare to find one so just use a TV stand for a "door" so you can get in but employees can't.
I like living near people for the exact reason you say not to, when people are running I can come save them, block my tiny door just in case, or if I'm running they will let me come in and help me, I don't want to be selfish.
One time me and my friends built a big 2 story base and then they had to go then are base we spent hours on was broken by a guy from Brazil named draken
And we had a special plush named Hubert and he didn't steal it but I died then I came back cuz I had a waypoint and I took Hubert then I ran and ran then I died and I couldn't find hubert😢😞
I always build a sky base with my team of 4 (my bsf and our sisters). I honestly think a sky base is helpful. But to make sure to make it in the middle, with no small open spot whatsoever, except for the entrance, which is guarded by parkour and a small trap, basically a those pick a side thing where you have to slide under a small spot of the two options to get in, pick the wrong one and you show up in front of an employee. That’s the only reason I would recommend having an employee as a pet. This method is helpful for protection at all times from employees and during night from grievers and raiders. Also, building this kind of base could take time so if only recommend it if you have the time, which is the case for me and my friends since we’re on summer break. (I’m a new player btw so u dont have to do this but u could test it or sm)
Usually when I make bases I take A LOT of time, usually taking me a good five in-game days or so. To avoid not having a base at night, I make a mini-base to hide in. This mini-base is usually a bunch of beds put together in a simple, safe way.
My base is basically just the place with yellow wall and desk and depending on when I spaw in the game : 1)I just hide under the desk 2) Take tables and bed to fill up blank space and baricade it 3)The same as the second just That I have a bunk bed cover with a carpet lol
After I am done with my base walls (most important) i just look around for stuff and yeet in in my base and when night arrives I close my base and organize Also when I spwan it is usually always night so I just make the most cramped ,only fits you when crouching, kind of hiding/safe spot till day. :) Tnx for reading my essay
Ngl I wish the devs of this game would make a features that lessen the grifing of this game. They should add stuff like permissions. Once you pick up a piece of furniture to add to your base, only you get to remove it, or give someone permission to pick up a piece of your furniture. The permissions will go away once you leave the game.
I hate it when someone breaks down your base to save themselves or they will literally move in without permission and take your stuff and when that happens I tell them to leave but if that fails then I break the entire base and make a new one it works so well
When you make a base in 3008 and then a noob passes by in the middle of the day and walks in like its theirs not even using the door and steals all your food and then you tell them to leave but they type back slowly so you wait there and then it turns night and they say, "NO" so they sit there and you tell them to leave in the morning, *they ignore you* and start messing up your walls. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!!! so all night you fix wall after wall until morning where they just GREIF your base and you sit there DUMB FOUNDED at what happened then you realize you have become super duper hungry you open your inventory and remember that the noob had taken your food ALL AWAY so you end up starving before you get more food and die.
my tips on building an employee free base: find shelves (not the small tiny ones), spend your day putting pallets up a layer (where there would be a ladder to climb up to) getting food and getting light sources. When it turns to night, spend your time placing the pallets across the two shelves so you can reach the other side. Now just do that for the whole layer and no employees can get in (i suggest curving the pallets up and the ends just in case) IMPORTANT! Getting lights are essential to building a base. i probably didnt write that well but oh well lol
honestly, the mistakes players always make is making their house/base larger than it needs to be, only build a home small enough for you and your food, and then do expansions when you need it. This is because you can easily avoid griefers and employees walking into your larger bases in the daytime
A thing that reminds me of the 2nd one “base location” once I left my base to get some decoration for my base and when I came back some random girl was just moving my stuff around but luckily she didn’t take med or food
I once joined two of my friends, and when I got close to rhem, they started complaining in he chat that two other players that asked to spend a night in their base(my friends politey declined) started destroying the base. The base itself had two floors, was very comfy, cozy. A lot of needed food and medkits. My firned said that they soend 2 hours making the base.
my favorite type of base so far is one of those pillar bases that go very high up and make a house, and then bridge all the way to another pillar. they just look fun ig
Quick tip for some people who take their time to build a base: If you're gonna build a big or time consuming base build a small base next to your soon to be big base and u can continue building ur big base and be safe from employees An example is: using a tub or wardrobe and cover yourself with it
If your tired of noobs tearing your walls to get away from employees on your base, try to make other rooms if your base is quite big and make them have different kinds of door ways (not open ones of course), so if a noob tears a wall down and a employee comes in you still have other safe spaces in your base (unless the noob tears them down too like a child) Other ways: Make your base on a pillar high up and make a confusing way up. Use natural game walls (the ones you can't tear) ik that most of the plots have no 4-sided or 3-sided walls, but at least u can expect that a noob won't tear the part of your base that has them.
If it's night time and there are -2s around me, I get a couch and go to a corner, I then place the couch/chair over my head with the backrest facing out so nobody can get you. you can then find extra protection for the present moment, but it is not normally needed.
i like to build bases on pillars next to the wall, and i add like a spiral stair case then a house on the top around 200-300 studs high. no one has ever found it while i stayed there, and there are never workers, which makes building at night better. i also like making the base really nice, so when i leave the server someone else can find it and use it.
strange how building a roof is not part of the list, unless virtually everyone here builds tiny bases. cause if not, just make an overhang, staff can't jump everything, and they only jump when they think they need to, so just add an overhang thats at least partially taller than Hubert, and the staff are screwed. yea if your the type to just build in the middle of nowhere and keep a small encampment roofs CAN still work, same with the quick and simple enclosement method at the end of tip 3.
you're right, base stealing is mean but enjoying kicking them is a whole different story, some guys try to steal my base but my base is chaos so i just need to wait and trap them or wait for them to step in their own traps
YES. Doors are so important, and make sure that Ben (leg guy) can't get in. A good way to do this is put a bunk bed as your door and place an ISKARNA (head lamp) or the pencil lamp on the bottom of the top bunk. That way, you have to crouch to enter and pan your camera to the side to move inside.
The most annoying thing is when you going to get something and theres employees near you and it turns night (and your also really far away from your base)
Tbh I don't like building a base near or in the shelf area because at night they will just started running towards there or if you leave near it they will just attack you instead. And they can easily climb up there so yea, just saying :P
I really hate public servers. Before buying a private server I would always spend hours playing the game and making good bases and not even 10 minutes after making a base people would always go in and raid it. Sometimes they would even claim it as theirs when I go food scavenging.
Whenever I make a base I always look for a plot nearby a food place because every so often the food will regenerate making it so that you don’t have to go exploring and risk losing all your inventory
if people always steal ur food i would recommend hiding it under a bed but make sure you put some on a counter that you don’t mind them taking so they won’t get suspicious and grief your entire base
You shouldn't make entrances that are high enough for employees to walk through. Remember you can crawl and make low entrances that you can only get in by crawling so most employees can't follow you.
Was playing 3008 today and when it became blood night I just finished a base until some guy who was being chased decided to hide in my base by knocking down a wall and just standing there letting me get killed by those scp 3008 workers- I was so mad I left the game lmao
6:41 there was 2 people who literliy Saw me making my base and steel my stuff from my base i said on chat that it my stuff MY BASE! and they just continue steeling and i join them
Question of the day: What is your favorite SCP 3008 food?
Doctor bob
Chocolate bar
You
Jeff
Borgir
honestly the most annoying thing that happens at night is when somebody spawns near your base, and they can't see the very simple crouch way to get in and they remove one of your wall and the employee just comes in.
I know right, it keeps happening for Me.. and sometimes they just steal All my food and destroy my base completely
That’s the most annoying shit I just encountered yesterday,
Yup. I agree 100%.
THIS. LIKE HOW HARD IS IT TO GO AROUND TO THE ACTUAL ENTRANCE AND CROUCH??? AND THEY HAVE THE GALL TO NOT PUT IT BACK
@asuka87 exactly 🤠
imo I think the shelf base is my favorite, you have access to a lot of pallets, its off the ground (depending on what layer you build on), protects you from larger staff, can have multiple escape and entrance points, and is a good community base if everyone there works together. It takes a lot of resources but once established It can feel like a good home within the hostile IKEA.
During April fools where KING existed, me and my buddies built a Community in the Shelf and made Society. We have Rations, Shops, and Other stuff.
Shovel
Yea, I always do a shelf base if I find one
It's great, but griefers always target you there
@@johnnyjohnnyhottiethottie8345 yeah
I personally like using bunk bed spawn areas for bases due to the fact that there’s already 2 walls already there for you
and you can then use a bunk bed along with something small to make a door (alternatively, use a bunk bed as a wall and block the gap next to the ladder with something small)
Alternatively, a pillar base using 2-3 bunk beds as ladders. Usually easier to find than proper ones
I used two bunk beds and the carpets to make a mini base
I used to use bunk beds because I thought it was good but then I got attacked by an employee when hiding in the bed and started using shelves instead
same
Same! I use the brown shelf
Tips and random facts for new players: Build a base in shelves since there are lots of pallets and ladders there! You can also try to get a badge by trying to pick up the heavy wooden box which is located in the shelves, and of course it takes long since it's already stated in it's name. "Heavy". You have to be determined if you really want to get the badge.
Try to find a shelf near food areas so you don't have to run too far away from your base when you forget to waypoint it.
Remember to waypoint your bases and food areas so you don't have to find random food places far away and accidently lose your base.
Now, food gives you a certain amount of energy depending on what food it is, the food that gives the most energy is the chocolate which is located in a floating house.
The floating house has a very rare chance of spawning so you may have to server hop for it.
If you put the chocolate in your inventory, you will get a badge called " The sacred chocolate".
Foods that also give a great amount of energy are Striped Donuts, Ice cream, burgers and meatballs. I guess also Apples.
Food respawns every Monday and Friday so that's why you should build a base near some food areas!
There are lots of different rooms called "plots".
These plots have different items in them which you can get to make your base or make your base there.
The rarest items are the Gamecube, which spawns in the Living Room plot.
The chocolate is also one of the rarest items in 3008.
The chocolate is actually written in Swedish and translates to: The Good Chocolate, which it's original says "DEN GODA CHOKLAD".
The chocolate is actually also based off a real item in the real IKEA store, but with a different name.
If an employee(the humanoid entities with different sizes, colors and types.) is chasing you at night, push them.
Push an employee by facing them and clicking on them when the small red cross appears in the middle of your screen.
They only become hostile at night, the only occasion where they are hostile in the day is the "Foggy day" phase.
A foggy day usually occurs every 16 days, and has a low chance of happening on other days.
Foggy day makes employees stronger and when you get hit by one on Foggy Day, you will lose a significant amount of health(40 health will be gone).
You won't be able to see from far distances on Foggy Days which is dangerous since you might not see employees coming at you.
Blood Night occurs every 10 days, and has a very low chance of spawning on other days.
A nighttime phase lasts 5 minutes or 300 seconds.
If the server is laggy the times of the phases might change.
A daytime phase on the other hand lasts 6 minutes or 360! Even if night seems to be longer, it isn't.
Again the time of the phase may change if due to the lag of the server.
Tell me if I missed something.
wow
HOLE ESSAY OVER HERE
Underrated
Another very rare item is Djungelskog, the bear. He has a 5% chance of spawning in the tv bedroom. Also, you can get another badge by jumping on his stomach from a height that you would die at.
@@miIIiee Yep I know!
I usually create something more than a door. I create these small, _small_ gaps (referred as Keyholes imo) in at least one wall that players can turn and walk through, while Employees can't. These keyholes can also have a ceiling so that a crouching player can access but most taller employees never can. Keyholes also shouldn't have a wall to the left or right that is sticking out from the outside, as employees can run at the nearest player in your base and end up slipping through the keyhole.
Basically, if you're not able to create some air lock for the entrance of your base (intuitive but not exactly safe still), Keyholes will usually be your easy entrance both in and out without consequence.
Here are some tips for building from *my* own experience!
1. To save time, plan out your base building. For day, build this side of your wall so you can rush back to your temporary base before it’s night.
2. If you’re building a big base, it’ll really help to have a temporary base! So while you’re building, if it suddenly turns night and your base isn’t finished, you can stay there for the night.
3. ROOFS! It may not seem like employees can get onto your roof, but they can manage. I usually build my base out of pallets and they can climb the patterns on the pallet. And if you aren’t using something with a solid pattern, (fridge, pallet, lamp, etc. etc. etc.) they can climb onto the excess furniture around and into the base!
i believe that instead of putting doors, you can use like a table or something flat and place it low enough that you can crawl under it but not walk in it. there are some pros and cons to this tho
doors are safer from all employees while crouch entrances might invite shorter ikea employees
doors take a longer time to open/close but you can atleast sprint through it
while crouch entrances make u slower cuz u have to crouch but its a easier way if ur getting chased
in addition with saving time for a base, if it just turned into night time have a table, bathtub, or shelf around and take one of those items and place it on a wall so that you can crouch under it but you can’t walk into it. its basically a crouch entrance but it leads to nothing but a wall. this way, most employees won’t be able to get u but make sure to add on to ur emergency area if u see some short employees around
that's a very good enrence,I usually make slide in doors,it is like a door that you can slide into and very thin
To fix the problem with crouch doors, you can get a bathtub and place it sidways to a wall. To enter, you just crouch into the bathtub, then circle around the wall you place it in. This is basically implementing a slide door with a crouch door for very easy and effective protection. The crouch door will stop tall employees, while the bathtub with a wall halfway through the middle will take care off the short ones.
The con of smaller employees is why I always make my ground bases force you to crouch AND go sideways. The employees thin enough to possibly go through are never small, so they won’t get in whilst smaller employees are usually a little wider, which would be stopped by the extra thin gap.
Some short employees can come in tho
i definitely agree, stealing bases, griefing bases, or negatively impacting any base that is not yours is terrible! heres a quick story of mine.
my friends and i love making house-like bases in this game. we can spend up to 1-6 hours just making our base. there was this one time we made an absolute mansion! it was two stories and it had 5 bedrooms. (there were five of us) we were still in our construction phase of our base. it was nighttime when somebody broke in to our base and were pleading to stay for the night. we said no as nicely as we could, because we feared those with ill intent. this then ended up being a horrible decision, because we were right about them. they tried to guilt trip us but failed. see, we collected penguins because they were special to us. we made our own little made up thing where this penguin was our lord. (backstory warning, scroll towards next paragraph to skip) it was bloodnight when a friend brought a penguin back. we were awed by it and asked for safety and protection from it---and our wish was granted.
then this player decided to throw a fit and stole one of our many penguins that were chilling on the couch. they started running away and i took after them. i started chasing them until they ran out of stamina and would inevitably place it down. this eventually happened and surrendered the penguin after saying "deal with it, you already have enough." i took the penguin back and started running towards our base to return it. yes, we could have found a new penguin, but no penguin could ever be replaceable. each one was significant to us. we were building happily until we find out that the player had set a waypoint at our base. they returned during nighttime and tore down our walls, then left the game. we eventually repaired the base, but it was saddening to experience that interaction with that menace.
I collected 128 penguins once
When stuff like this happen,I usually take a screenshot of the usernames of people in the server,so if they leave,I can still report their account
I was only able to find 5 penguins before and someone came and stole two of them,I remember me and my best friend panicking at that time and trying to get it back,they eventually gave one back,but they took the other one and ran away,at that time,it was almost night time,so I needed to quickly go back to my base and I lost them
my apologies, i don't remember their username, but at the moment their display name was "grannybear"
@@Smokey12032 thats an incredible achievement
@@oreo8033 I agree, I had to go in a 700 person server to get enough
Usually when I have nowhere to go, I find a bunk bed and I use a table, pallet, or dresser to block the opening. The quickest block would be the dresser because it is spawned closest to the bunk bed. Most likely, this works because the table (if big enough), covers the whole opening as well as the pallet..but the dresser covers most but leaves some open space. Also make sure the bunk bed is secured on the wall or employees could squeeze in. I recommend this tip for tall employees.
i have another tip: you wanna make sure is that if you don’t wanna move your pallet/wall you can make a crouch space or thinned space that you and other players can only go in but the only downside for this is that somebody sees your base and doesn’t see the crouch/thinned space and removes a pallet/wall and the employee comes in
I am a new player and rn I'm just doing Parkour pillar bases, of you get to a certain height on the pillars they didn't see me like I'm John Cena
I personally find clunky bases a form of art itself, it really gives a post apocalyptic feeling to it. The uses of beds as walls and chairs as ceilings. Amazing stuff
I agree, it also gives a different type of cozy feeling nothing else has
Oh and another good is ONLY USE WAYPOINTS ON IMPORTANT STUFF! Use them on food locations or your house, not random item locations. You don't have an infinite amount, so save them for good things.
I sadly never used waypoints while I made my huge skybase, I didn’t know I was sprinting and when I tried to crouch and I slid off my base and died.
(I was like 200 studs in the air)
@@Low_resolution aw that must have sucked!!
Tip : Stay with other ppl so they can help u,and also make side doors where employees can’t fit in
no man if i was that person with a base i will tell them to get out bc is mine their gonna steal all my food
@@minghaoin then you will be considered as "the toxic player" just say "If you help me with my base and getting food,then you can stay here"
@@shirohishiro4106 huh? is my base bro the only person who came in my base she didn't help me she ruined it
@@minghaoin They are grifers,Also don't take too much time on your base,Grifers,top target are the bases that looks good.
@@minghaoin If you really don't want someone to ruin your base,then scroll down servers and if there you see a server with less people then 5(like 4,3 people)and join that because it has less chance of having a grifer,or just look at the avatars of people that are in the server,If there are atleast 2,3,4 players that costed money(robux)for their avatar,then join it.
When I make a base I often like to pillar up to a sign with ladders, then bridge out to a wall or pillar. It makes it harder for grieves to grief it because I can remove the entrance ladders, and then they would have to scale the wall/pillar which I can defend against. It seems to work because I made 2 griefers rq because they couldn’t take down my base. So ig what I would say is building a little pitstop before actual base is useful to slow griefers down
Good yet underrated tip
Tip: if your near a ice cream or cafeteria and it turns night snd you have literally nothing to save yourself crouch and go inside the glass thingy
Edit: wow thanks for all the likes :D
Wow. This is one of the best tip I've read this day . 😂
Ikr
Thank u I tried this with an employee chasing me at night and I did what u said and the employee couldn't get me so thank u 😌☺
Wow thank you all for the nice replys :D
@FoxyKid ;-;
I usually bunker in abandoned bases and make improvements to them. I remember people used to make sky-paths connected to other bases complete with a set of lights to guide you during the night.
*based*
Rayd: not a lot of people want to build a base far away from everyone else.
Me, an introvert: there’s exceptions to that.
Lol
Lol
Based. :)
This really helped and I totally agree with the neighbor tip. I have died because of other people breaking in my house because of employees. Also because people sometimes are cruel and break your base. I have experienced it and some people love to ruin it for others. Be careful not to run into those people.
Best Suggestion: Build a Skybase. Build Stairs With Tables. After Building, Remove a Table So No One Can Enter.
My Tip: always try and build a survival box or triangle (if u are with other ppl or can't find something to close u in)
Also, Just Stay With Other ppl.
My way of making a way inside is by making a draw bridge out of TV's so when an employee tries to jump over it'll just fall.
My base is actually pretty simple and helps you survive, I made stairs that go in a circle to confuse the AI of employees and made a sky base, but this sky base has more security, it has a draw bridge, a first floor in case of a breach and a way to block the stairs off with either a tv, a pallet or a cabinet
I like to be a hermit, constructing a small but highly variable hut with a crouch+strafe doorway. Sometimes I put carpets between the bunk beds, put a table to cap off the opening in the outer bed and use whatever else to make the doorway, or put something on top of a shelf. It's usually small and just for a night or two, before moving onto somewhere new.
What happens whenever I play SCP 3008 with my friend:
We find a good place and start to build a base
Somebody comes and steals material from our base
We scream at them to leave
The person takes our food
We die and then it happens again
I build a research center and used players as test subjects and now i have a dokument showing almost every employee and now i know everything
Hm, I’d say that you should live an suburban area.
In all, get like 1-2 (nice) neighbors. More than that and maybe you should worry a bit.
Also, IKEA corners are usually very secluded.
Another really annoying thing is yesterday i built a really good base with a lot hard work it took me around 3 hours and it has soo much food then a girl came to my base took my food and DESTROYED MY BASE like threw every material and she wasnt even trying to creat her own base she just wanted to destroy my vase :/
*create *base
@@nearlyjade not everybody has english as a first language
@@Dkalieisieudu Thats the same person
I find using a larger snap grid for your base walls, floors, and roofs makes it quicker to build and it comes out alot smoother.
how do you do that
@@cheesycheese8451rayd hearted this and he didn't answer☹️
how to make a base that lets you survive forever
1. find a bunkbed
2. put the drawer thingy in front
3. put a light if u want
4. awesome
I ALWAYS do that in the middle of the night
When making skybases, people think they are safe if they use ladders but what they don’t know is that employees can still climb up ladders, the best thing to do is make a platform to push them off
The best door in 3008: The door from the living room plot. It blocks literally anything besides players.
The vids are great, keep it up
Appreciate it!
"try not to make ur base perfect, as it will take more time." me, a perfectionist: mMMmMmMmMmMmMmMMmMmMmMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmMmMmMmMmMmMMmM..... no
👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
It would be easier to see if it’s clean, attracting griefers
Bruh, I have a hell of a story to tell regarding base-stealing.
After I had gotten done with my shelf base, There was a bacon hair man who had shown up at my base. Of course, I let him in, assuming he wasn't going to grief, he stayed with me for a few days, but then after that, he started to take parts of my building away without me knowing. During nighttime, I had caught him taking parts of my base and immediately decided to pick up the floor that was underneath the bacon hair man and I dropped him to die with the employees that were gathering around my house.
A few in-game days after that, a group of griefers had shown up to my house to take the house apart. It was nighttime at the time that happened and as they were moving parts of my house back to their base, I followed them back home and I decided to grief THEIR base instead. To add salt on the wound, I decided to grief their house so that employees could get easy access. I decided to pull a kamikaze moment and I whistled the employees toward their house, the employees had managed to kill all the griefers alongside me, but I had set a death waypoint to their house before I died. Once day broke, I went back to the house and later found out that the house was later abandoned and still had employees inside it.
Soooo yeah, don't steal bases, or parts of them. You'll come across crazy vengeance-seeking people like me who will do whatever it takes to kill you.
what i normaly do:
- i steal peoples abandone bases
-completely change the look of the base
-MORE LEVEL
-FOOD
These are very helpful!
something that i have to say is one time i stayed in a server for so long that it was empty no one there and just explored.
then you got disconnected and lost everything.
@@Datwaltuhdawg exactly
These tips help me improve in 3008, Thank you
Glad to hear that!
If you find an abandoned base, make sure that base truly is abandoned, maybe the base just has some people who left to find food, my rule is 5 days before moving in, and even after you move in, add more to the base!
bro I swear I spawned in and found some medkits, and then I found a shelf base. there were 2 people in the base, and I gave them some of my medkits. Then, they had the audacity to say, "Uhhhh, go away!"
So I did.
I then saw them in the chat, panicking.
for the base location one, just to reccommend if your getting chased by a worker, put a waypoint in your base
i do that all the time... when you die you can look how many studs is your base👍 soo u could get safe!
Even if im late, heres another tip!
Before "Base Stealing", he shows a trick with bookshelves am I right? Well, lets say you can't find any bookshelves and it becomes night. Try to find a bunk bed, get in the lower bed and close the hole with a dresser or any items that can cover the hole (where you came in from)
I use that trick alot everytime I join a server because it can turn into night any second ( or at night ).
I found this trick out when I first played 3008, its really helpful if your in some emergencies.
Also, do set a waypoint in your base..
One time i built my base next to a base with two friends inside. I was keeping my space trying not to annoy them. Eventually, after two nights, they came up to my base and took my walls and everything to their base. This is why I never build next to people.
Another time, I built a small base with my friend. We turned our base into a small blanket fort(out of beds). This group of 16 people came up to our base and just moved in with no warning. With so many people we had to expand our base. After 10-20 nights/days in game the base was getting broken into by lots of employees. This is why I like to keep people to a maximum of 6 in my base(but i prefer 2-4)
I built a base, a secure and good one, then somehow withing 5 minutes of me finishing it, 4-6 people all came and just moved in. Somehow or another a bunch of people who didn't know each other just happend to be near my base at night, and all decided to move in. Eventually all except 1 left, and it was finally peaceful again. Someone asked me a question in chat so I went to look it up on my phone, and withing the 30 seconds of me turning away from my computer, the last person living there opened all of the walls, left, and let the employees kill me. I had left a waypoint but the bast was basically destroyed.
ok so i think the best door you can have is where you make a small gap that you can only go through by going sideways. you can also make it short so you have to crouch and go sideways. i suggest blocking it on blood nights tho.
Yeah I'm very lucky every time i join a Server in the game everybody's just kind and everytime they go to my base they're friendly and I even gave them food sometimes newbies stays on my base until we became friends and also I create location based on where the foods spawns like kitchen, etc. and also bc the location i built was also far from players some also make their bases on stacked things yeah base stealing
The Funny thing abt Base Stealing was that some players leave it to those newbies bc they're gonna go afk and also everytime I join a server and built a base there full of foods and players start to enter my base (sometimes bc they have no base or they got chased by scp's) they dont touch the food and sometimes they wait for me to respond if it is ok to eat food especially if they're so hungry low energy or health
Thanks for the tips! I really enjoy your videos so I'm going to subscribe
some of my tips for surviving and building: number one if you spawn next to an employee at night you want to climb up somewhere and punch the employee if there's multiple you want to run away as far as you can and grab some tubs at least two tubs put one next to a wall climb crouch in there and put the other one in front of you and if you have a gap that is teeny tiny don't worry about it the employees cannot get to you but if it's like a huge gap they will get you number two if you build a big base it would take longer to fill up and make cuz let's say that you only need one type of material and those are small shelves it will take a long time because if you're in the area where there's no shelves you will have to go really far and let's say that you forget to put away point this is why wait points are very important in the game because I've seen many people die and then forget where their bases and then I always see someone helping them fine with their bases because that usual person is that person's neighbor but then that's when an employee comes and gets them both so I do highly recommend I would just have four people with you in a group because let's say that for friends playing together and one gets one is dying you want to give that friend some food and then punch the employee back to try to defend so let's say two friends punch and defend and another give some food and another gets at least some stuff to cover up morning you guys want to find some food
Chapter 2: food resources what to eat and what not to eat.
So let's say that you're hungry a few minutes in the game and it's still morning time so that's a good thing and you find soda pop everywhere but every time someone walk to near it and they look like they're hungry they just don't get it and they really die the reason for this is because soda pop actually lowers your health bar and the reason for this is because of the chemicals so that's why I hardly do not recommend drinking soda pop but if it's for your energy then I do highly recommend but if you have no energy and you're halfway on the health you should not drink soda pop just try to look for something else but if it's the only thing that's there and nobody else is using it try to find an abandoned base that has a lot of food in it eat some of that but if it has some sort of Pop don't eat it
Chapter 3: sky base sky base sky base!
I just want to say if you see a pillar you should grab some resources that are close right next to the pillow the reason why is because sky bases are the absolute best way to not get caught but sometimes the employees see you so if you're starting from the ground and the staircase all the way up to a building you don't want to do that I do highly recommend building a staircase and then building a against a wall and it should be at least three posters tall and let's say that a person really needs help and you know them so let's say that you still have the staircase but it's a secret way to get up you tell them to remove some of the ladders so that the employees can't get up to them but the worst employees are the tall ones so you want to make a secret way on how to get up and avoid the tall employees because some employees know how to climb up and down the ladder.
Chapter 4: trap trap trap!
Okay so this one maybe confusing but it'll be easier if you think hard enough so if you spawn in the area and it's night time you want to do what I said on the last few chapters grab at least two tubs or something that is empty inside and you can use a tub or an empty shelf put those two together against the wall and you'll be safe from the employees until morning so now it is morning time a few minutes later and you think of trapping the employees but you don't know how because some employees are smart enough so it be so it'll be harder to trap them when they have some smart IQ so for this if you want to trap some of the employees that attack you here are all the resources you will need in my opinion that helped me: 1 glass tables
The reason why I think that using glass tables in my opinion is so you can see the employees so if you ever leave the game and someone comes near your base and they see a hundred employees trapped in one base they'll think that oh that base is probably dangerous because then it'll probably be is it when they say whose base is this trapped with 100 employees in it and if nobody says anything they'll probably move in and try that same trick then this will be going on for games and games so your idea is helping other people as well who are new to the game! :)
2 a lot of beds
No these beds are not for sleeping for huge crowd of employees actually you need to form a upside down t so like it forms a so like you went out on left up and besides you so behind you there is an entrance for the employees to come and you punch them down that and then they hit the t and the upside down t bounces them down on the ground so when it's morning time you can see the employees in how many you've trapped they will try to walk around and get out but if there is a small Gap that some of the short employees can't get through you want to grab something that is short as them and get two of them is stack them up together but if there is a huge gap that you cannot find anything to cover up with the employees will get out climb back up and kill you!
Chapter 5: waypoint, food etc!
COMING SOON IF THIS GETS 20 LIKES AT LEAST:)
Griefing in 3008 is just a myth (for me at least)
If you have a shelf, base, you can pretty much get supplies so at night you can keep putting planks in a pile or getting food during day when you do this, especially putting planks in a pile, it means at night you can build, which means it can make night useful and day more useful
In my personal experience (note this is about a month of playing), I like to grab a bunk bed and go to one of those green and purple rooms, grab a load of pallets and/or queen beds and block of one side (I usually take the purple side). Then once the overall house is done, I make a waypoint and run like mad crazy to find food courts, playgrounds, and places with pallets, making waypoints and collecting stuff along the way. Over time, I slowly add rooms and furniture like food storage, a tv room, a bed room, and a enclosed hideout. Its not the greatest base and sometimes I build a little small, but its always cosy and I like it :)
Hints for making bases in the game if you spawn near a wall start building cause it will be easier to start cause if collect food it's gonna be night so the bad idea to do making a small base cause you can't get out and what I recommend a big base the size of the wall to help people have many food to eat cause it's alot to take care if you make a high one make sure it's on a metal place cause it's safer to stay that's what I reccomend
The thing I hate about 3008 is the fact me and my irl friends were making a base and then my roblos online friend came into the base bc employees
And he was just like opens wall base yay but he made the employees come in and then we all died
-Lesson if ur being chased never open someone base walls it’s really annoying ,btw don’t open the walls just accept ur fate if u open the walls tho we all get killed if u just keep running only u will get killed and they survive
So >:( very mad
one of my fav ways to build a base using a pillar or a shelf
shelf: theres a lot of pallets and u can make a huge base
pillar u can make the base very high and use a bit of some parkoar for it not make it not simple small or low
I am not sure if someone already commented this, but I just want to mention that if you want to make "doors", just use the TV stand. If you go through the TV stand from the side, you can actually squeeze in and it is the perfect space for hiding from employees, and I'm pretty sure there are no bone thin employees. Even if there are, it is rare to find one so just use a TV stand for a "door" so you can get in but employees can't.
This channel is actually fire for beginners just like me and some other people it helps a lot thanks Rayd
5:44 now hear me out, when 2 mobile players come into my base and take loads of my food, im gonna try to get them out by removing parts of my base
5:43 Basically just bird that found out that they’re nest has been touched,then they abandon it instantly
I like living near people for the exact reason you say not to, when people are running I can come save them, block my tiny door just in case, or if I'm running they will let me come in and help me, I don't want to be selfish.
One time me and my friends built a big 2 story base and then they had to go then are base we spent hours on was broken by a guy from Brazil named draken
And we had a special plush named Hubert and he didn't steal it but I died then I came back cuz I had a waypoint and I took Hubert then I ran and ran then I died and I couldn't find hubert😢😞
5:46 i am that type of person to destroy my base if someone won’t leave. IF I CANT HAVE IT NOBODY CAN
I always build a sky base with my team of 4 (my bsf and our sisters). I honestly think a sky base is helpful. But to make sure to make it in the middle, with no small open spot whatsoever, except for the entrance, which is guarded by parkour and a small trap, basically a those pick a side thing where you have to slide under a small spot of the two options to get in, pick the wrong one and you show up in front of an employee. That’s the only reason I would recommend having an employee as a pet. This method is helpful for protection at all times from employees and during night from grievers and raiders. Also, building this kind of base could take time so if only recommend it if you have the time, which is the case for me and my friends since we’re on summer break. (I’m a new player btw so u dont have to do this but u could test it or sm)
A shelf sky base btw
Usually when I make bases I take A LOT of time, usually taking me a good five in-game days or so. To avoid not having a base at night, I make a mini-base to hide in. This mini-base is usually a bunch of beds put together in a simple, safe way.
My base is basically just the place with yellow wall and desk and depending on when I spaw in the game :
1)I just hide under the desk
2) Take tables and bed to fill up blank space and baricade it
3)The same as the second just That I have a bunk bed cover with a carpet lol
After I am done with my base walls (most important) i just look around for stuff and yeet in in my base and when night arrives I close my base and organize
Also when I spwan it is usually always night so I just make the most cramped ,only fits you when crouching, kind of hiding/safe spot till day.
:) Tnx for reading my essay
0:41 doors doors doors!! 1:48 base location!:3 3:33 Save your time:0 5:18 BASE STEALING?! >:( 6:46 Materials!!:3 7:44 Base type!
Ngl I wish the devs of this game would make a features that lessen the grifing of this game. They should add stuff like permissions. Once you pick up a piece of furniture to add to your base, only you get to remove it, or give someone permission to pick up a piece of your furniture. The permissions will go away once you leave the game.
Rayd: it's really important to make doors!
Also Rayd: if your base is open, you're dead
That’s the same thing 🤦🏾♀️
I was with someone who found me because i was building a base next to a base and we found each other and worked together
I hate it when someone breaks down your base to save themselves or they will literally move in without permission and take your stuff and when that happens I tell them to leave but if that fails then I break the entire base and make a new one it works so well
When you make a base in 3008 and then a noob passes by in the middle of the day and walks in like its theirs not even using the door and steals all your food and then you tell them to leave but they type back slowly so you wait there and then it turns night and they say, "NO" so they sit there and you tell them to leave in the morning, *they ignore you* and start messing up your walls. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!!! so all night you fix wall after wall until morning where they just GREIF your base and you sit there DUMB FOUNDED at what happened then you realize you have become super duper hungry you open your inventory and remember that the noob had taken your food ALL AWAY so you end up starving before you get more food and die.
my tips on building an employee free base:
find shelves (not the small tiny ones), spend your day putting pallets up a layer (where there would be a ladder to climb up to) getting food and getting light sources.
When it turns to night, spend your time placing the pallets across the two shelves so you can reach the other side.
Now just do that for the whole layer and no employees can get in (i suggest curving the pallets up and the ends just in case)
IMPORTANT! Getting lights are essential to building a base.
i probably didnt write that well but oh well lol
If there’s a base in that game and the owner left, I WOULD TAKE IT AND CLAIM IT MY OWN.
I had no idea y’all have a timer for the day/night cycles. I just use my phone’s stopwatch and start a new lap every time the lights turn on. Xbox guy
Tips
•Pizza helps
•Shelf bases also helps cause of the pallets since it spawns there
•Also go near a food place
Pizza doesn't help it only gives 8 energy
honestly, the mistakes players always make is making their house/base larger than it needs to be, only build a home small enough for you and your food, and then do expansions when you need it. This is because you can easily avoid griefers and employees walking into your larger bases in the daytime
A thing that reminds me of the 2nd one “base location” once I left my base to get some decoration for my base and when I came back some random girl was just moving my stuff around but luckily she didn’t take med or food
I once joined two of my friends, and when I got close to rhem, they started complaining in he chat that two other players that asked to spend a night in their base(my friends politey declined) started destroying the base. The base itself had two floors, was very comfy, cozy. A lot of needed food and medkits. My firned said that they soend 2 hours making the base.
my favorite type of base so far is one of those pillar bases that go very high up and make a house, and then bridge all the way to another pillar. they just look fun ig
Quick tip for some people who take their time to build a base:
If you're gonna build a big or time consuming base build a small base next to your soon to be big base and u can continue building ur big base and be safe from employees
An example is: using a tub or wardrobe and cover yourself with it
If your tired of noobs tearing your walls to get away from employees on your base, try to make other rooms if your base is quite big and make them have different kinds of door ways (not open ones of course), so if a noob tears a wall down and a employee comes in you still have other safe spaces in your base (unless the noob tears them down too like a child)
Other ways:
Make your base on a pillar high up and make a confusing way up.
Use natural game walls (the ones you can't tear) ik that most of the plots have no 4-sided or 3-sided walls, but at least u can expect that a noob won't tear the part of your base that has them.
If it's night time and there are -2s around me, I get a couch and go to a corner, I then place the couch/chair over my head with the backrest facing out so nobody can get you. you can then find extra protection for the present moment, but it is not normally needed.
i like to build bases on pillars next to the wall, and i add like a spiral stair case then a house on the top around 200-300 studs high. no one has ever found it while i stayed there, and there are never workers, which makes building at night better. i also like making the base really nice, so when i leave the server someone else can find it and use it.
strange how building a roof is not part of the list, unless virtually everyone here builds tiny bases. cause if not, just make an overhang, staff can't jump everything, and they only jump when they think they need to, so just add an overhang thats at least partially taller than Hubert, and the staff are screwed. yea if your the type to just build in the middle of nowhere and keep a small encampment roofs CAN still work, same with the quick and simple enclosement method at the end of tip 3.
you're right, base stealing is mean but enjoying kicking them is a whole different story, some guys try to steal my base but my base is chaos so i just need to wait and trap them or wait for them to step in their own traps
YES. Doors are so important, and make sure that Ben (leg guy) can't get in. A good way to do this is put a bunk bed as your door and place an ISKARNA (head lamp) or the pencil lamp on the bottom of the top bunk. That way, you have to crouch to enter and pan your camera to the side to move inside.
The most annoying thing is when you going to get something and theres employees near you and it turns night (and your also really far away from your base)
I love ur vids! Oh and also, BASED!
I hate it when a noob comes in my base with employees following him and he takes my food unannounced
Tbh I don't like building a base near or in the shelf area because at night they will just started running towards there or if you leave near it they will just attack you instead. And they can easily climb up there so yea, just saying :P
I really hate public servers. Before buying a private server I would always spend hours playing the game and making good bases and not even 10 minutes after making a base people would always go in and raid it. Sometimes they would even claim it as theirs when I go food scavenging.
Ok thats toxic af
Whenever I make a base I always look for a plot nearby a food place because every so often the food will regenerate making it so that you don’t have to go exploring and risk losing all your inventory
It happens on Mondays and Fridays btw :)
if people always steal ur food i would recommend hiding it under a bed but make sure you put some on a counter that you don’t mind them taking so they won’t get suspicious and grief your entire base
You shouldn't make entrances that are high enough for employees to walk through. Remember you can crawl and make low entrances that you can only get in by crawling so most employees can't follow you.
Damn I cant beleive an scp game has so many players in roblox
In my opinion when building a base, my top tier thing is when an employee gets in get a medkit so they don’t kill you super fast
"As long as you got 4 walls and a roof, then you're safe"
Me in a triangle base: *guess I'll die*
Build the roof first and last wall and you will be safe
2:21 , what if your and extrovert and you don’t want to be away from civilization?
Was playing 3008 today and when it became blood night I just finished a base until some guy who was being chased decided to hide in my base by knocking down a wall and just standing there letting me get killed by those scp 3008 workers- I was so mad I left the game lmao
6:41 there was 2 people who literliy Saw me making my base and steel my stuff from my base i said on chat that it my stuff MY BASE! and they just continue steeling and i join them
Steal* stealing* *that it's my stuff and base * and they just continued to destroy and steal from my base so I joined them
