The Mutants Scare Me - They Are Billions | Frozen Highlands 700% (Part 2)

We're back in the dark, Steampunk, zombie-infested world of They Are Billions! This game may be a few years old now, but it's still a blast! For this run, I'm going to push myself with a max difficulty Frozen Highlands map. That means maximum infected, very little food, huge power drains, and only 73 days before the final wave hits. Can we survive?

Speaking from experience with the most recent version, it's not the greatest idea to delete rearward defenses after you expand. The final wave will break your forward lines, with tripwire, Stone Towers, Shock Towers, Executors, and 4 layers of stone walls, and get into your base at max difficulty, and you will need defenses in the other sections.

[@skywalkerjohn8965]

Agree. He gonna have to build it again anyway

[@METALFREAK03]

Yeah if he is recording this "with us" (and hasn't already done this game) definitely would have two or three line of defences. I used to clear the map have the first line at the edge (not right at the edge but enough for shock tower, couple of wasps & spikes.) my second line was about where he is now in a crescent shape (on the minimap) with two shocking towers out before triple x3 stone walls mixed with ballistas & wasps my last defence was basically where your homestead was (just a couple of rows of housing then the defences) This typically I try and get a couple of ballistas and walls up, but as I did this whilst the final wave was happening, I either a) didn't need to or b) couldn't build as I failed :)

[@takumi2023]

i've seen people delete their houses just to put down more towers. i think pravus spent too much time walking back and forth. he should have just stayed up north and expanded NW after the wave. the travel down south imo is too slow. i also think he should have expanded further down south east at the turn. don't know if there is a hole or not between the forest and the lake.

[@OtterSpace975]

@@takumi2023 Well, maybe, but it's not like he can't win the final wave on his current position. He may need to go a bit faster to get the Oil deposits and a decent number of Thanatos out before the final wave, but it seemed like he was speeding up a bit after he got snipers out.

[@underdog353777]

I only ever delete rearward defenses when there's like 2 others ahead of it haha, I've gotten bit too many times to not have a lot of redundant design.

[@bbrinergaming3694]

I... Binged all the past 3 playlists of they are billions in the past few days between these two episodes. I am obsessed!! Love this

[@METALFREAK03]

If you like you can see Christopher Odd's playthrough of the story. It be like 3 or so years ago now probably. type in "christopher odd they are billions" They Are Billions Campaign Full Playthrough ChristopherOdd · Playlist They Are Billions CAMPAIGN MODE IS HERE! - Part 1 - Bring On The Zombies! - Lets Play Gameplay 32:35 The Hidden Valley Horde - Part 2 - They Are Billions CAMPAIGN MODE - Lets Play Gameplay 33:11 View full playlist Should keep you busy :)

[@bewertsam]

kenseitv has some really good recent they are billions videos

[@piotrfijoek1095]

I'd really recommend getting those shock towers because later the amount of low tier would become so ridiculous your soldiers/snipers won't keep up killing them. That would allow those zombie to chew through the walls like butter.

[@lethalty6055]

I think the southern mutant got close enough to the southeast ballistas that it was in range while the ballistas were firing at straggling zombies.

[@SuperSkyhorse]

my thoughts as well. the mutants move around on their own just enough, that you could potentially set up ballistas out of his range when he is further away, only for him to move back into range on his own

[@DUCKDUDE4100]

You should absolutely play the campaign if you find the time, it's great fun.

[@houjisaifeddine5524]

and the way it restricts technology is rather fun. makes you think further ahead about what thinks to unlock, what units to epgrade, and what locations to hit first, so you do tactics before you even start the level

[@jetsonone1]

100%, its got some cool challenges to it and the tech tree upgrades really enrich the gameplay causing you to specialize more.

[@drottinulfur8962]

I too think you would enjoy the campaign.

[@underdog353777]

I honestly found it incredibly dull - especially the hero missions. Some levels had interesting challenges, but it also doesn't help that the beginning starts out *really* easy.

[@rlavender9684]

surprised one of those mutants didn't bring a giant in with him, they were pretty close together.

[@Sneaky210]

That new outro really is a banger Pravus. Love it!

[@Secretcodrin]

I just finished studying for today, got myself a beer and I just opened youtube. God this feels good. Thanks for the video!

[@jssnake2564]

I am in love with this playthrough

[@joehudak9196]

Dude u got me back in to this game been a blast playing again

[@darmenite4455]

I absolutely love seeing you playing this game and games like it, totally not because i suck at them and can't play them myself, definitely Anyways, i love the videos and just wanted to say it, keep rockin on

[@321Jarn]

Bro is almost killing the they are billions search results on youtube

[@IquonYT]

I never knew i needed this series.

[@Cuthawolf]

Really enjoying this series, eagerly awaiting more.

[@Peter-wy9kj]

that southern mutant just wanted to do a little bit of trolling i guess

[@MrSHADOWANGEL999]

Scary good

[@TheRealSimeon]

Thank you! I've been waiting for part 2 😊

[@NoxisFlak-Heyhowareya]

Such a shame you did not play the campaign! It was my favorite part of the game! But... it will take a long long time

[@ken2inn630]

always liked this game

[@ablett9]

I was playing the campaign today on 200 per cent they got in so I turned it off try again tomorrow love this game I couldn’t beat it on your level think the best so far was 270 per cent

[@christopheranderson8047]

I'm so hyped 4 dis

[@Rsfarmerbob]

Oo can’t wait!!

[@bigmay624]

Can I just say every night I love watching you’re videos 😅

[@houjisaifeddine5524]

word of advice : keep the rear defenses. you'll need multiple defense lines for the final wave since they will absolutly break through the first line. also, kinda my own bias, but the shocking tower is one of the best defensive buildings, you should look into getting some

[@silentsword1552]

I've got an idea for a new game to play. Battle Realms Zen Edition. I would really like to see Pravus play this

[@teaguejelinek4038]

23:39 screen moves to match the voice

[@AXTrosper]

Love all your content

[@viclorenzo5016]

Noice 👍

[@christopheranderson8047]

That mutant came from across the sea lol

[@tigeriussvarne177]

Praise Pravus

[@casualsailing5140]

Please make a campaign playlist. I'd definitely watch it, as that was my first experience. 🙏🏻

[@AllenYCLau]

Hey, new theme song! Praise Ainyaly, the Heir, and Gimli!

[@ladotb]

Waiting for part 3. Nice gameplay and commenting

[@marcussmith3830]

❤

[@Vicerion17]

Age of Darkness! I could not remember it's name last episode after confusing these two for a minute. I was wondering where the buff dude or femme fatale leader was, quickly remembered it wasn't this game but couldn't for the life of me remember it's name!

[@wolfcommando8467]

If you played the campaign, I would watch :O

[@desecrationfly]

The Campaign was amazing, you should play!

[@mesmith7015]

I found the campaign very enjoyable. Hope you get the chance to play it.

[@thequietace7619]

I think you would enjoy the campaign its hella fun

[@Scott-yf1zn]

Nice

[@Hurin1234]

Looking good Pravus 🎉 Some small mistakes but hey 😅

[@zeburgerkang]

i wish the chase function worked better... like the group i made sticks together instead of something peeling off.

[@Qvrki]

hey i really like this game what's a doom village?

[@adambauckham]

I wonder if there actually like billions in 1 wave. Or like billions overall from start to end

[@風風-x7d]

屍潮來的時候 背景音樂 大聲一點感覺會更好

[@Mynamejeff2-if2dk]

You should play the campaign

[@TheXxemarosaxx]

Can you save this game? I heard you couldn’t but I saw you auto save I want to buy it but I don’t think I can do full runs without stopping

[@tonislavivanov5062]

Pravus i know that its asking a lot considering you are working as it is but is it possible to prioritise this series or make them longer? Theres just something super ASMR about you playing they are billions and that survival medieval siege castle game its just next level man haha much love from bulgaria

[@nadimulislamtonoy9604]

could you play Kaiser reich as Germany it got a huge update.

[@DarkDragon357]

Pravus should play more democracy 4. i would love to see a hardest difficulty america run. day 339

[@thomasmeslin8399]

:D

[@liadhen1614]

Pravus from where you Yiddish? Every Time you speak in Yiddish its a word i know in Hebrew

[@franzbenedictmariellebueno3418]

Play the campaign pls

[@gambit5181]

When Rimwolrd?

[@Fishpizza1212]

The mutants weren't that scary with all the snipers around. I thought they would have way more health for some reason.

[@justinsinke2088]

From what Pravus said before, it's not so much that the mutants themselves are a big threat individually (though they are pretty tough; that much concentrated sniper fire does a number of them), but that they have the potential to gather a small horde of milling zombies in their wake. You can see how much damage and additional zombies the southern one that surprised him caused before he was able to reposition his forces. Now imagine that happening on day 20.

[@alexandererhard2516]

Also if there are several mutants clustered... there's always a good chance of them attacking all within 30s or something.

[@IdklolX9]

pravus do some ck3

[@11lequanguc83]

hey pravus can you please try out the HOI4 mods name The New Order?

[@EdoBudim]

Stop building ballista towers and split the snipers. Build normal tower with 2 snipers to protect and build normal wall, you are not saving anything there.

[@12vscience]

a

[@nyeeesz]

could you please switch back sometimes from this grid-showing mode? I know its really helpful but watching the game is not that enjoyable looking like this
