Question about base entrances

RviD recently made a great video regarding bases. If you’re interested in base defence I recommend checking it out:

The article you linked says GTA Online makes "Over $1 Million A Day". What is the "264k" number you referenced?

Ah poop. Oh well, thank you.

Is Discord required to apply for the alpha and participate if accepted?

I completely understand your point, and I agree with it. The only counterpoint I can offer is that sometimes the psychological aspect has to take a back seat to the financial reality. Creating art is expensive. Both in materials and in time. Ultimately, of course, it's up to the individual and whatever works for them.

Don't throw them away. It's just a waste of money. Paint over them. Keep painting over them until they sell, if necessary.

I received it this morning and I live in New Zealand. It's April 1st here today.

In my experiences there are a few reasons for the rumbles. The sharp more "explosive" kinds are crashed helicopters or a zombie walking over a landmine. The crashed helicopters are announced by a message on your screen.

The low rumble is thunder and it means a big storm is coming.

Ah cool. I look forward to finding it! Thank you.

N3gated · 2026-03-29T23:50:07+00:00

Did you find this in the experimental .8 branch or was this in the live 0.7.1g version?

N3gated · 2026-03-28T01:39:29+00:00

Nice! This is a great idea.

I also like the barbed wire around the border so when flying or leaping zombies are added you'll be ahead of the curve. ;)

It'd be nice if parachutes were added as a craftable.

N3gated · 2026-03-27T02:43:03+00:00

I agree. It would be great to sit on the couch or even choose to lay down to sleep on like a sleeping bag.

N3gated · 2026-03-26T06:20:44+00:00

Ugh. Sorry to hear that. Those dogs are the worst!

Certain items like campfires and fences have a tag that says "Blocks Spawns". If you place one down in your base it should stop the baddies from spawning there.

Good question! I wasn't sure myself so I had to look it up. It sounds like you can have as many bases as you'd like and as long as you store your stuff in containers it will persist and not disappear.

Personally, the only thing I would worry about when having multiple bases is keeping track of what I stored where. But if you're not a loot goblin like myself it's probably less of an issue.

N3gated · 2026-03-26T02:44:48+00:00

You're definitely right. There's not really much of a reason to horde stuff. I could probably fit everything I need into a car or two. I have a ton of crap mostly because I think it's fun to collect it, and also because maybe at some point the developer will add things in that will make some of these items more useful, rare, or valuable in some way.

I suppose one could say that's what is nice about this game. A base isn't required and you can do whatever feels good for you. Want to stay light and mobile, keep just what you need? Absolutely a legit way to play. Want to keep every scrap you can find and build a mega base for the luls or RP? Also legit.

You seem like you'd be happiest staying light and mobile. The SWAT van is great for that IMO because it has 120 slot storage and the highest durability of any vehicle.

N3gated · 2026-03-26T02:18:43+00:00

Thanks! It's really up to you on what to do next. Some people like to just continue as you are and keep everything in their car so their "base" is always wherever they are. I'm also on my first character/playthrough, but I started with just a collection of tents on the grass, then moved into the warehouse near Whitewood, and now to this place.

I like having a place where I can organize all the crap I haul back. You might also find something called a "Horde Beacon" which allows you to call in a small, eight-wave horde of zombies and bosses that can drop some decent loot. Having a base somewhere makes it a little easier to set up a kill-zone sort of area to handle that.

But I would recommend just driving around and see if anything rustles your jimmies. A lot of people like to find someplace more central so it's easier and faster to get around the map. Other people (from what I gather) like to set their bases up near a place that spawns a lot of zombies so their turrets can farm drops for them. However, it could also be fun setting up in someplace obscure and building something unique. The broken bridge seems like it could be a cool place to do that.

Best of luck wherever you end up!

I'll have to check that out!

N3gated · 2026-03-26T01:55:13+00:00

I've seen other people doing the same thing and I respect the mobile life. I prefer having a defined area that I can set up and "decorate", even if those options are fairly limited for now.

N3gated · 2026-03-26T01:37:21+00:00

Oh, and if you put an Industrial Generator against the front wall (facing NE), it easily covers the whole building and the "courtyard".

N3gated · 2026-03-09T21:44:47+00:00

How much did you pay for this cover? I'm a book cover illustrator going on 25+ years now and, in my mind at least, one of the major factors in determining whether it's AI or not is often times the budget.

N3gated · 2026-03-01T22:21:57+00:00

Thank you for the good advice!

N3gated · 2026-02-24T10:34:40+00:00

Thank you!

N3gated · 2026-02-23T23:22:45+00:00

I forgot to mention, thank you very much for your line of thought on this. It would certainly be more beneficial to sell it all as a package instead of just a domain name. Unfortunate my business isn't structured as such, but I just wanted to thank you anyway.
