Even though everything would die if it hit bottom, we'd throw some spikes down their just for fun. And the game is TOO EASY.ĭoes the giant pit defense still work? my group ended up digging a 15 ft wide pit all the way around our base that went down to the bedrock stuff. In short, as far as I can see Re-enforced concrete blocks are more than enough for the Hordes in this game (at least till day 70). Easy to make and effective against zombie hordes.Leave. We have never repaired in the middle of a Horde, and this is diffculty 5 (2nd highest!!) and yet the Zombies are harmless verus a base that is being defended by players In this 7 Days To Die Alpha 20 video, I'm going to show you the Best Horde Base Designs for Beginners. It has to be said, they have NOT managed to do any more than a few HP of damage to our re-enforced concrete. On Horde nights, the Horde will eventually break through the outer wire/spikes and get to our walls, where they batter the walls till morning and/or we kill them all. However our outer walls are made of re-enforced concrete, surrounded by a few layers of spikes and Barbed Wire. Originally posted by Ghostlight:I may be speaking too soon here because it is only Day #70 for us (furthest we've gone thus far). (again, I had 2 trussels beyond the outer wall - water up the entire thing so a watery "overhang" effect so the spiders couldn't get up there either) Just build the main base above it and they won't get up to you nor break in. SO yes, you can make a base that all you'll hear is zombies swinging at air occasionally and never breaking into anything. (toss buckets of water at the bottom of the trussels is how) The tressels go 2 out beyond the building but water doesn't flow through them so I had to "cheat" a bit with that part of the architecture but it's quite doable. Trust me - getting 3 friggn blocks of water "falling" like that is *NOT* easy but is doable.

Try it yourself, maybe you'll have different results. Normals will die, radiated cops will not. When at the bottom, or rather standing on the walls at the bottom, zeds did jump down. So I dug a tunnel to the bottom of the hole and put good walls around like an arena, I guess. *snicker* ) No "base" set so it tossed me up to the frozen biome so I shut it down, turned off spawns, went back in and ran the whole distance down. Zombies attacked the structure and avoided the hole. (how'd I die? It seems bullets go through trussels but *NOT* rockets. No damage showed on *ANY* blocks when I shut it down and reset the zombies by dying. I also put a door on one side - solid wall behind it but it's got a door at the base.

I ran up and down that shaft between shooting and kept a huge swarm there the entire day. nothing.įun side: The building is *SOLID* concrete except a shaft to the base that goes 2 blocks under it. They came swarming the place as I stood on the building - I went up and down the shaft. I built it then stopped the game - turned max spawn on zombies, blocks low, damage high, burned out 1 sniper rifle, used a rocket launcher, had meat on me. 3 "waterfalls" suround it - as you can see it's desert terrain, yet flooded.
#7 DAYS TO DIE ZOMBIE DROP PIT FULL#
The only full proof protection is to make a base at the bottom of the map and sneak when you are less than 15-30 block from the surface The water protection is an old and no longer valid protection the 23 deep pit is for all but the fat zed Zeds will still break down your walls given time. Water does not do anything other than protect your for the vomit damage. The roof is covered with water which permanently flows down the outer walls, covering the entrance door. It is about as cheesy as you can get but will keep them from every destroying your base. We killed them and followed their path back out, they had started digging about 50 blocks upriver from our base(1 hole in a messy bend of the river), tunneled in to a huge area with ore and then tunneled in to our ramp, probably 12-15 blocks down.Originally posted by Eleazaros:This, or a variant on it, is about the most zombie proof base you can make. On about day 33 we were preparing to go out for the day and they suddenly burst into our tunnel halfway down. We could just hear them for a few days, couldn't find them as we circled around our base, but you'd hear the dogs bark and the crawlers moan and dig, we thought it was a glitch from the horde night. They didn't start digging in at the place we meant for them to come in(wall facing the top of ramp so we could shoot up the ramp at them as they came down).

Night 28 I think it was came and passed, but we had apparently had gotten 2 dogs and 2 crawlers attracted to us. In one game that me and a friend were playing, we had built a base entrance just a little distance from a river and we'd flush it out overnight(no place for them to get started at our entrance, was a corner reinforced room to hold up the ceiling under a full horde's weight) with a ramp going down.
