[@PixelLifeGaming]

You guys asked how to build it, so here it is! I hope this inspires you to build your own Epic Horde Base. Feel free to use this and improve upon it.

Do blade traps set off demoman? I've been hesitant to build traps because I'm not sure which ones can trigger it to explode

[@PixelLifeGaming]

@@justinsteidl8151 nope. They don't.

[@justinsteidl8151]

@@PixelLifeGaming Are there any traps I should avoid then?

[@PixelLifeGaming]

@@justinsteidl8151 nope. You can use all traps.

i wanna use the same foundation for the base rest on what's the exact same size. how many foundations with wide and long, i did 20 wide and 16 long but didn't looks the same as the one is the vid long or wide view. so is it 22 wide and 32 long since you double the size of the floor? ? im confuse on this part cause you said you doubled it in side so can lay out the blue print like you did, try to watch it step by step just need the correct numbers for the foundations on the ground

For anybody wondering what the shape is at 16:05: Cube 1/2 Thin Window Awesome tutorial! Thanks a bunch for doing this!

You're welcome!

I built this base. I modified it a bit to my taste. 1) I used 4 Blade traps instead of 8. (half shorter) 2) I used trigger plates before the first electric fence , with 1 dart trap inline with the electric fence post for possible head shots 3) Same plan as above right at the melee section of the base. 4) For efficient darts I broke the traps(eight of them) on the ceiling into 4 block regions and hooked them to the trigger plates mentioned above. ran a horde night with it (Day 49) and it went super smooth. My base is all concrete right now, Ill upgrade as I get steel made. Thank you for the video and the plan , I subscribed!

[@superbeef9757]

I actually built this base on ekos community server and it works so good it's incredible ty for the tutorial.

[@jimbodee4043]

Hopefully this will still be valid base design in the next update, but wow what a entirely detailed and well presented explanation of the layout and building guide.

[@1776-RoundTwo]

I'm so excited to build this! Thank you for the guide!

[@PixelLifeGaming]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@christophermondry3731]

Great base, was hoping for a demonstration haha

[@CursedDad]

I FINALLY built this in a real playthrough. Resource heavy, but man does it pack a punch! I just beat the day 28 horde on darkness falls playing permadeath. The only issue this base has is the night stalkers walking through the final barrier they get to. I'm gonna add an extra block there in the back and and a smg turret on the inside of the base. Will update with results on my day 35 horde. GREAT BUILD AND GREAT CONTENT CREATOR!

[@PixelLifeGaming]

let us know how it goes :)

[@kriiluna9874]

Just built this in the wasteland with 2 friends, excited to try it out for our day 49 horde. Only cement so far though with crucial points as steel. Glad this is a version you can repair the electrical components during the horde, last base once it broke it was done for the night lol.

[@globe2749]

how did it go? interested to find out because 3 mates and I have just had our horde base demolished by day 49 horde so we are looking for a new one!

[@kriiluna9874]

@@globe2749 super well I liked it. easy to repair damage and fix electrical. Just be careful of the exploding military dudes and you're set.

Thanks

Awesome, I love this base, thank you for taking the time and shown us how to build it :)

Awesome build! Thank you! ❤️ My favorite 7D2D content creator! 👏

[@PixelLifeGaming]

You're welcome and Thank you :)

[@TizonaAmanthia]

those poles on the outside of the build, for extra support don't work all that well, I prefer fullblock core, cladding on sides, and the narrow pole in the corners. for a 9block "support column" or 12 block on a 2block center pylon. but if it's not UNDER it, then in the case of a collapse it won't save anything.

[@blakerichardson350]

In order to operate fully effective all night the blade traps need to be repaired continuously due to the low durability but other than that great base!

[@bigmacd1244]

thank you for the build.

[@altoyda]

As of today I was not able to to use arch thin windows can not repair or see thur them they have fix the bug and with hatch doors on top of dart traps can not full or repair just heads up

[@bigmacd1244]

nice thank you for the build

[@PixelLifeGaming]

Youre welcome 😁

[@SpicyEdits]

About how many block would I use to build this base? Great base btw

[@wizardgaming758]

What was the dimensions for the blue print? 20x20? I'm having a go at building this in Navezgane! Awesome base :D

[@PixelLifeGaming]

The actual Build is 21 long (Main body is 14 long) by 16 wide so you'll need your ground surface area to be a little bit large than this.

[@wizardgaming758]

@@PixelLifeGaming This base is epic! I ran two horde nights in it. First one kinda sucked a bit. I triggered a demo and he destroyed half the electrical stuff. Second horde was much better tho! Thanks heaps. P.S, have a slight crush :P

[@lindekruz579]

cant find the arch window types? help quick

[@Krolack10]

Hi, thanks for this build, I just built it and we ran it on a days 70 horde and it worked very well. One thing though that I might have missed, the dart traps did not shoot a single dart. Are they supposed to be connected to something (other than the electricity) to trigger them? Thanks!

[@PixelLifeGaming]

Did you lock in the darts?

[@Krolack10]

@@PixelLifeGaming I did not! I will try that next horde night. Thanks again for this build!

[@benr77]

I wanted to see a horde at the end

[@G8T3R]

Great Build. However I noticed that after I got everything built, the blade traps are setting off the dart traps. Any suggestions?

[@PixelLifeGaming]

Did you hook your blade traps to your dart traps? If so they should be on a separate circuit

[@G8T3R]

@@PixelLifeGaming Yes, I think I did. I'll check itn when I get on today. Thank you sooo much!! Still new to the game. Keep up the great content. I'm learning soo much. :)

[@G8T3R]

@@PixelLifeGaming Ok, I double checked and they were, however, I now have them on a separate generator and circuit and they are still being triggered by the blade traps. :(

[@PixelLifeGaming]

@@G8T3R Do you have a switch between your generator and your dart traps?

[@G8T3R]

@@PixelLifeGaming Yes. I have 1 gen with switch to Dart Traps, 1 gen with switch for blade traps and 1 gen with switch for electric fences.

[@Greeno34]

I could just be slow, but i've watched it several times and I can't hear anywhere where you say how long it is? You say 20 wide, but how long?

[@allPodd]

Truly finally!!! Screw u for taking so long 🤣

[@PixelLifeGaming]

Lol. Hope it was worth the wait? Lol
