Thanks! Esp I didn't know about the door thing!
Just stand on the roof of a house on horde night, they can’t get up there, it’s worked for me on 3 horde nights now
Excellent, well presented and very helpful. As a player returning to 7 DTD I had forgotten so much, this reminded me and taught me a few tricks. Many thanks.
can zombies damage blade traps that are not turned on? i was thinking have 6 traps on the ledge but only use 2 at a time.
Can you make a video on how to safely mine? I believe a screamer can hear you even if you mine all the way down to bedrock.
Dude! THANK YOU for this. It’s great info. I lost my gaming desktop to its motherboard 😢 now playing on my gaming laptop (I know I know NOT reliable) and I haven’t played for a while and forgot their pathways. I have to keep the specs low and can’t have too many zombies 😭. Nice job giving other YouTubers a shout out ❤
Just got into this game, how viable is just… not being at a base during the horde? Like my first horde night I just ran around exploring part of the map occasionally hanging out and letting zombies spawn to kill for some xp
What’s the walkway made of does it still work
Console version with all its glitches seems way better than this. I can't stand the idea of genius zombies. It's a dumb idea from tfp
I feel bad for the Mother that bore all those zombie twin's.
I start the typical stair style base with a main base 5 wide with a sledgey boy to reset their path but as I go into late game I expand the runway to 3 wide wall off the sides so they don't reset I place eletirc wire traps for ez head shots blade trap before main stair case to weaken them before they climb I have a cage made of bars to shoot through and the classic hatch smg turrets on the sides of hatch lined up with the main path switches for all traps so i can activate everything as needed and a single block inside my main kill room for a robotic ranged turret, seeing that water pit reduces the rage mode I may just start adding that into the mix
great castle 👍👍
Is this pc or console
This was the first 7 days to die video I’ve ever watched and I do not live under a rock thank you very much
Liz from More2Me4Life also did a zombie fall damage video in her Liz Labs videos. It hasn't changed since those A 19 videos.
I miss the days before zombies got engineering degrees…
Love this info. I used to play and stoped after they made pathing to turrets harder to do forcing us to take out skills in many areas. i have reinstalled and started researching bases. I would like to build a base that doesnt have gapping blocks and focuses on turrets again. I wonder if you have any vidoes i can go at this style with? Thinking maybe a bedrock base might be doable but to what extent i do not know yet because i still want to use turrets
I really like making ineficient bases, bunkers and stuff. It feels cooler. Once i did an age of empires 2 town center.
7:05 this confused me a bit. you said you can't repair or use tools through the bars, but in the fighting position part of the video you showed bars as a block you can repair through?
The mayday call was a great touch at the end ❤
Great work as usual Temreki. Legend man
2 fps
Tugkan abinin bunu görmesi lazım
Can you please make an build tutorial of that massive base you show in that video
that stability mode needs to be added to all players or at least give host the option to give it
sir, was wondering what files do i have to save to backup a game file? i am building a horde base and would want to restore a previous game if i totally fuck up my base
Is there a video showing how the electric fences were set up to be across all three block height of the fighting position?
My buddy and I have always used a slightly altered variant of the turtle base. We'd build a house like base on the ground, then dig out a trench usually 4-5 blocks in width surrounding the base, and dig out a "basement" structure under the house which housed what we call "The Gore Hall" The Gore Hall is a basement structure that is larger in width and length than the above base, and houses an inner section to enter the base above, with a surrounding hallway lined with bars and downward facing stair blocks for the ability to fire at zombies on the ground or digging below. The trench would be filled with spikes with a line of barbed wire on the blocks directly outside the bars, slowing zombie travel. For entrance into our base we'd either hope we're really good at parkour or temporarily make a frame bridge to then destroy, until we get a drawbridge. Usually my buddy stays topside with an LMG and I stay in the Gore Hall with my trusty Auto shotgun. As the base goes through more horde nights, the trench is gradually expanded by zombies breaking blocks, especially demos. It's not a perfect design but the use of the trench slows down the zombie advance drastically and leaves us out of sight of police zombies long enough to kill them before they can even spit. We've had 2 big time bases with this design philosophy, One was utterly annihilated as we put our game stage really high as our sendoff to that playthrough, and the last one received major damage on one occasion but was never destroyed. We're actually in the beginning phase of another play through with Alpha 21 and we're absolutely gonna do it again as it makes horde night so much fun
how do you screen record like that u need another computer? or something?
8:22 You missed the opportunity to say ".. So they can cool off".. and it's not coming back… it's just not..
When you need a 30 minute guide because fun pimps thinks zombies are super intelligent creatures.
Please update this to A21 😛
Great content!
This video help inspire my horde base design.
I would like to see diagonal fighting positions please im getting stumped
The fart when zombies fall was cracking me up 😂 Well done
I know this video is a year ago, but how do you have do many turrets? I thought you could only have 2 active at a time? And that's with high intelligence.
True neebies group could help but they make comedy gaming..i found best trap base on xbox one i took i high rock and built on top of it and made maze spikes and wood spikes below it and a single plat forms with hatch doors blocking climbing…but they still break threw and climb to two floor but its single so they fall back down in traps or melee them , just rember 7 th day the wreck bottom heavy but not enough get in..not yet this horde day 28th..dogs and spiders have issues they move fast on 2 nd lv
Even if you fall off u take least 20 ho dmg getting out but zombies die 20 seconds in ..wall spikes and wooden spikes and wall spikes have hatchdoors flip back have them no climbing or to front pile them in climb up and melee them…rember fix hatchdoor from time to time or u have nice pile climbing up..i kiled already 1000 zombies traping them in traps and melee them..some dont even move just stay stun..
