So I turned the 2x2 core into a bunker making it an extra 16 rockets and the ladder hatch to get to roof is a pain early game before turrets are up so we changed it making it harder to be door camped and we made the tcs detachable adding a gatehouse instead of using wooden high gates

[@matteoappezzato3624]

Just a suggestion, you should add a layer of pancake layer that way raiders can’t access floor one and 2 so that they use more boom

[@andyotto9159]

youd have to add halfwalls to the wide gap frames aswell. fucks up the whole design and adds heaps more stone, stability would be lower.

[@cheeselouise]

pancake layer = dumb. stevie isnt a builder

[@katagiri2004]

good base for online, with the help of these peaks and floor shooting, I repulsed about 2-3 raids as a result of the raids in offline, raided me into 2-3 people. but there are disadvantages, namely there is little space for chests on the first floor, and I almost did not use the second third floor because I was too lazy to go there. another big minus is its template, the raiders knew where the cabinet was so they quickly got to it because it was clear where it was. okay, good luck in building. Changed: I played solo.

[@nuik_music]

What i did for the TC is i put it on top of the Base where you do the triangle circle in an armored triangle with an armored door which should be easy to do and less predictable then a standard 2x2 TC placement

imagine doing all this just for some zerg to come and take out 4 sheet metal doors to loot lmao

[@nkluiiii]

Just a question how would you put a compound on this base

[@ramo6514]

The only bad thing about this base is u can't add alot of doors to it its a 2x2 , so if ur lootrom is at first floor, its like 5-7 doors to get in the tc , the base is basically good for an online... if u dont add alot of turrets in the end of the day before u go offline, u probably gonne get offlined

[@jakobkoteng2971]

Yh a soulution to this is to make the side you go out of(the airlock) to go up into the second floor of the 2x2, and then u make triangles on the other side same way u do with honeycomb but u make it go down to the 1st floor again. Understand?

[@nickrandomnumber]

I was counting doors too. Garage door & 2 single doors to tc from the basic 2x2 and then like 2 more for the external walls? Not great. Also how does he call this cheap with no external tc to balance upkeep?

[@alexandershultz9913]

@@nickrandomnumber This base is designed for larger groups. You can make it smaller in height to compensate for the smaller group size. However, as is any traditional 2x2 circle or 3x3 circle, there is hardly a way you can spread out the tc's upkeep evenly. This base is really only used for if you plan on only playing a server for 2 or 3 days and want to be onlined. Other than that, I would suggest going with something like the GENESIS which is a really well designed base that you can use throughout the entire wipe.
