The Container Yard - Foxhole

[@xplodeman6424]

As a WLL member and a person who teaches basic logi whenever I see a willing new player, thanks for making a video on the container yard. Also I'm happy that my insight on the container yard was readable since I type slightly differently.

[@RobertLovesGames]

Ha! Thanks for helping me with this video and talking about the container yard! And thanks for always teaching new players logi as well!

[@YilmasRegin]

I shall happily load you with another container mate! /WLL Crane Operator

[@joeclooney1997]

Found the yard yesterday and was taught how do do a bmats loop, hoping to learn more

[@lyoko222]

I was an active part of the Container yard in War 100, and the Yard Master in War 106. I can honestly say it was one of the most fulfilling experiences i had in foxhole logistics.

[@RobertLovesGames]

That’s amazing to hear! Thanks for your hard work with running and helping with it!

[@TheNamelessScrooper]

A video about ingame player made system is some banger content. Thank you Robert and WLL for the video o7

[@RobertLovesGames]

Glad you enjoyed it! o7

[@StylishYeoman]

Honestly this is such a great way for trains and their benefits to be made accessible to the masses without everyone needing their own train. Just having a spot where everyone can throw their stuff knowing that it'll be picked up and transported forward to an actual useable location is great! A 13 car train can bring 780 crates of bmats to a frontline or midline depot, almost hitting the max of 1000 public crates of bmats. Especially in the hexes with no refinery but garages or factories, this is such a big help! Love you Rob!

[@RobertLovesGames]

It really is great! Gets everyone involved! During war 112 we were doing a lot of train runs to the deadlands!

[@c0vvoo3]

Always wondered why the containers where there, didn't know they were color-coded with different equipment!

[@RobertLovesGames]

Pretty cool right? I love working at the container yard. Makes logi feel more alive than just throwing stuff into stockpiles.

[@YilmasRegin]

There are signs near the loading bay (near yellow containers) that signify what each color means. /WLL Crane Operator

[@dillonsands6963]

I remember seeing the yard for the first time while passing through Red River last war, my first thought was "Who's taking up this much space?" But quickly changed my mindset after reading the signs and realising that this is such a good idea for public logi, next time i see it again I'm going to give them a hand

[@RobertLovesGames]

Woo! That's the spirit!

[@chickenmann9934]

This is kind of similar, but in war 100 me and a small-ish group worked a train yard in Howl County where people would bring us shipping containers and other large shippables they didnt want to transport all the way to the front. We would then load up all the public cargo and freight it to Maiden's Veil several times a day. Unfortunately we still lost the war, but I believe our small group dedicated to shipping logistics played a big part.

[@RobertLovesGames]

That sounds awesome! Love small groups doing cool projects like that. Thanks for sharing that! And I agree I'm sure you all made a big difference!

[@ToroRosso1985]

This is what logi looks like in full swing It's like playing Transport fever within foxhole hahaha & i love it WLL you LEGENDS ♥ Thank you Robert for making this video.

[@RobertLovesGames]

It's amazing! And no problem! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@monkeyjackmonkeyjack3779]

this is what MMO should be about, working together. great stuff winter

[@RobertLovesGames]

Agreed! Love me some good collaboration in Foxhole!

[@RainbowQueen23]

This entire video from the yard to the diary are exactly why I love these types of games.. wish we could have more games like this

[@RobertLovesGames]

Same! Such a great community in Foxhole! I think with games like this the proxy chat aspect helps a lot. I don't think we would have the same community if proxy chat didn't exist in this game.

[@davidbridenthal]

I love the container yard. Have spent many hours cooking and filling it. War 100 we did almost non stop trains from the yard to the front, painful but worth it. - [WLL] TheNamesDave

[@RobertLovesGames]

Thanks for all your hard work with it! I can tell it makes a huge difference on the fronts! Well done!

[@SadPizza4591]

I was in westgate and WLL kept bringing us like 300 public crates of bmats and an equal amount into their reserve. That was practically all the bmats there.

[@RobertLovesGames]

That's awesome to hear! Can't wait to play with WLL again soon. Thanks for sharing that!

[@Kirbys]

Thanks for covering WLL :) I love cooking stuff for the yard and seeing people come and take it to the front. It is awesome.

[@RobertLovesGames]

No problem! Great logi clan and group of people! Same! I love that as well! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this!

[@neptune5726]

thats honestly a great idea and brings me back to the days of quartermasters which where a thing before foxhole had wars!

[@RobertLovesGames]

Crazy! Love the idea of quartermasters honestly. Thanks for sharing that!

[@dominiksvagr7531]

The ability to do this is exactly the reason why we are the dominant species on this planet. Well done Foxhole players

[@RobertLovesGames]

lol exactly! Well said!

[@KronusWinter]

Love the video :) only thing that caught me was the container yard started in war 34. Not 84 :)

[@RobertLovesGames]

Thank you! Appreciate that! Ha whoops! Could have sworn someone said war 84 in the discord and that it was an east vs west war. My bad! War 34 is crazy! If WLL does not have some kind of 100 war anniversary for war 134 I will be very disappointed! Thanks again for your help with this video!

One of the seven wonders of Foxhole was definitely Port Tobacco covered previously by ISawABear

[@RobertLovesGames]

I wish I was making content around then! Would have loved to have covered that!

[@sethproaps8899]

I remember making deliveries to Tabasco.

[@wraithjam]

Glad I found you, been looking to get into Foxhole for Logi, but was having a hard time finding anyone going into depths about it like you do.

[@RobertLovesGames]

Woo! That's awesome to hear! Always feel free to DM me on discord as well if you have questions about logistics or need help with anything!

[@wraithjam]

@@RobertLovesGames its definenty a bit intemidating joining in to a war so late, most places have more tracks than roads.

[@fighter0894]

I've been doing Logi out of Weathering Halls this war. WLL have basically set up a defacto camp outside the town. What struck me most was how willing the clan was to teach me, a returning player (back when the most advanced logistics you ever had was a flatbed, containers and cranes). Their humble attitudes and their willingess to show me the rope to the new systems despite their bustling around really inspired me. Although their container yard this time was a little on the smaller side, it still maintained what it set out to do: Give any logi players an easier time to get their stuff out to the front. 07 Keep cooking!

[@RobertLovesGames]

Nice! I've heard a little bit about that! And yes they are a really king and patient group of people! Love what they add to Foxhole. Thanks for sharing that!

[@theoheinrich529]

i remember contributing a lot to public crate supplies to the containers whenever i finished cooking my bmats, the transition from salvage field->factories->container yard is incredibly smooth that the container yard seems like an actual world building sometimes

[@RobertLovesGames]

Nice! And yes I love how it adds to the world as well! Which is why I wish there were few more of these around! I think during north vs south one container yard in the 4 corners and maybe even one in the back middle would be awesome!

[@The_CGA]

It absolutely is! I just wish Foxhole community was more open to (public) player-made “structures” like this

[@svalfish1716]

great video Robert! It's a lovely thing to see our work pay off

[@RobertLovesGames]

Thank you! Keep up the good logi work!

[@HatsAlEsman]

[@MarkFirefly2023]

Awesome video hope you do more video like this in the future Also a question what in your opinion are the other six wonders of Foxhole ?

[@RobertLovesGames]

Great question! 1. Warden Dam 2. The Baths 3. Waterfalls where ever they are 4. Probably some statues 5. Maybe a mountain 6. And salvage fields!

[@chickenmann9934]

@@RobertLovesGames id argue Fort Viper in Viper Pit is another wonder, it's one of the best defensive "islands" in the game with towering castle walls and elevation.

That's a good one! I would say old Conclave would have been one of them as well!

I'm really surprised ive somehow never see/heard of this but it looks really amazing so props to WLL, in other news I finally managed to solo that battleship and she's on the water now just waiting for its first op. My total gathered for 3.4k rare metals is 2.9million with 3.5 million submitted by god the rare metal system is painful but im really glad its finished now :)

[@RobertLovesGames]

Ha! Should check it out some time when there is a normal north vs south war! Oh wow! Congrats! How many hours total to build it do you think? Well done!

[@ultrasaur17]

@@RobertLovesGames was trying for about 10 hours a day since day one of the war so like 160ish maybe not really sure. I made sure to have everything done that i could before each fac tier came out so like all the ass mats and cmats, then when tier 2 came out farmed the rare metal for a naval pad then got everything else done so when harvesters came out the grand farm could really begin. The rare metal farming was one of the most painful things ive done in foxhole since the worst field i farmed was 12 rare and the best 218, the worst day farming i got less than 200 total but the best day i gathered over 500 total i think.

[@RobertLovesGames]

Thanks for sharing that! And congrats on making one solo! I would share that information out if you are on reddit or even just the Foxhole discord. I think that is good information for people to have! Well done!

[@elpargo]

The real wonder is how much goes out there without you realizing it. Our clan mostly deploys on the east or west which means I barely go into RR. I have forgottnen about this and how epic it is, definitely something more clans should be doing. Pulling from seaport is soooo slow and every item I see a back line seaport full of stuff be a loot box I wonder if we could have won that war with all that stuff

[@RobertLovesGames]

Probably a lot! Working with the 27th this war they keep a lot of it on excel sheets. I'd say it's pretty accurate. I hate hate hate public pull times. They are so bad.

[@RobertLovesGames]

Thank you! Appreciate that! Hope all can enjoy a logistical experience like the WLL provides!

[@Wurlydurly]

You should check out the knight clan, they run a public BT program where they give them out for free to groups in game. They do change factions but I’m unsure which side they’re on this war if they’re playing at all.

[@RobertLovesGames]

I actually saw their war factory two wars ago and Tearloch showed me around! Really cool! I would love to do a video on their set up next time they do it!

[@Jonhicks1984]

When Inferno came out I did something similar in Ogmaran. I basically sat and collected all the Salvage produced by the town mines (which I dubbed the Salvage Factory). The two mines would produce 8 Containers worth per hour (1 container about every 15 mins for each mine) if I kept it fueled. After trains were teched, I assembled a container yard on the east side of town where Regiment trains picked up the Salvage to ship to Tine. At that point I was collecting not only from Ogmaran's Mines but also Headstone's to increase production to 16 containers per hour. As I was soloing most of this I got burnt out after about 2 weeks of it sadly. The main problem I had doing this was sometimes not having any containers to fill. Either cause I filled all I had available or no one swapped out containers (empty for a full) leaving me with none and having to get Bmats to hammer more.

[@simplyafederalist]

Yay port sausage was great. Its not needed anymore.

[@joeclooney1997]

This is so cool honestly, I only ever play canon fodder due to time constraints but I'd love to be able to contribute to something like this

[@RobertLovesGames]

If you are Colonial hit up WLL to help them with it! They are always recruiting more players. I know some Wardens clans that are starting to do this as well.

[@simplyafederalist]

If only colonials players actually liked it. Ashfields is the best spot for it but everyone whins and bitches about their parking lot being used and getting in their way. That is the only reason Red River was used, way less drama with large regies.

[@RobertLovesGames]

Ashfields would be a really cool spot for it! I never knew they moved it back just because it caused less drama. What a shame honestly. Thanks for sharing that!

Damn it's so good watching this almost feel like I'm the subject of propaganda or some sort. Still, love the effort and dedication of promoting public logi while dev actively forcing every player to play in faction logi with unreasonable game mechanics. What is the other 6 seven wonders in Foxhole btw?

Ha I didn't think of it that way but I can see that. And yea I love public logi like this a lot! Copying my list from another person asking me the same question ha. 1. Warden Dam 2. The Baths 3. Waterfalls where ever they are 4. Probably some statues 5. Maybe a mountain 6. And salvage fields!

[@The_CGA]

It would be great if we could get something like this going for actual human soldiers, a network of mustering and rolling out points one hex back from the line where one could gather and roll out strong with friends- A place to get into a squad with a big truck, 🛻 a reggo truck🚛, a couple bmat based towed weapons, and preloaded with enough supplies to put up at least an encampment. Some kind of recon or command vehicle to pull it all together. Instead of a crane operator is a quartermaster managing a queue of pub squad sergeants each getting a squad together to roll out. This could be expanded or run alongside a public artillery battery muster and distribution hub. The dozens of little public factories, which are sweet and great, are never built with traffic flow and recruiting of warm bodies in mind

@@RobertLovesGames THATS WHY WERE WINNING!!!!

[@TheVeryRealShorra]

This isn't a good representation. WLL has the freedom to do that due to it's regiment size and Kronus being such a big streamer. This doesn't work for anyone other than themselves. Thing's will get destroyed or flag for disruptive. There is also the problem that many many players will grab the containers and submit everything to their own private stockpile and / or public stockpile right next to the "yard". This is just a boast for WLL whilst all the other regiments who don't have a big streamer get shit thrown back at them.

[@RobertLovesGames]

They started out small. People hated what they were doing when they started. You need to just keep pushing and trying to start something otherwise it will never happen. WLL showed that if you have a good idea others will follow and you can execute that idea. Also if a container is out and has items in it no one can submit it to their own private stockpile. It can only be put in public stockpile. What smaller regiments do you think deserve a shoutout and what do they do in game that deserves recognition? I even stated at the end of my video that other clans can reach out to me if they do cool projects ha

[@TheVeryRealShorra]

@@RobertLovesGames Robert Man you clearly haven't played the game enough. When you make your own Bmats or create items in factory or MPF you will get a "reservable" text with each crate (With your 1k hours video , you should at least know this) It's easier to much have public logi via private stockpile as the pullout time is much quicker. Also can we not make out that WLL was "small" by any stretch of the imagination. They already had Kronus and a good heap of followers. It wasn't "small" at all. Lastly, I don't know any smaller regiments that deserve a shoutout. I never once said that you don't do that.
