We Built A FORTIFIED Apartment Base - Vanilla DayZ

[@StopGooN]

Great little story man :) Hope to see you soon in your new adventures!

[@Ar-k]

It was a pleasure playing with you Ralf!

[@wxst3d563]

We got to see more Ralf videos, I love your videos but I loved to see this team work together hopefully there will be another story with Ralf in it, keep up the good work At-k an Ralf

ive been following for 1-2 months now, and he's gone from 5k to about 9k as of this post. HUGE jump, and well deserved. he's a good presenter, easy to listen to, editing is smooth, and he's a relatable player, not playing the uber modded servers.

[@tanner356]

Another GREAT video. That sequence with the car coming down the road and the rouge survivor using the claymore and AK was NUTS. Your editing is incredible. Great stuff; keep it coming

[@Ar-k]

I couldn’t believe how insane it was, the sequence of events, thank you for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed

[@SALAD6000]

I love the fact that you can lose so much in so little time in DayZ it's so funny and sad at the same time.

[@Ar-k]

It’s why I love vanilla so much, it’s such a grind

[@timdinh39]

Great video! I’ve had MANY apartments bases through the years, two of them being at this exact same severo apartments. Having bases there I’ve learned many things. 1. Apartment bases get targeted VERY quickly as they can become very fortified if allowed. 2. Bases close to the coast are easy to get to after you die sure, BUT that also means constant people coming through as it’s very populated near svet and severo. Not to mention it’s easy to keep running back if killed there so you’ll constantly be harassed. 3. Apartment bases are easy to sneak into through the windows which is why someone came and took your guns easily. So for any new players, if you’re gonna build a base or stash, NEVER build close to the coast or near there, AND you might think bases at the edge of the map are good BUT many people run around the edges looking for these particular bases and stashes, so it’ll be found quick. The best areas are near the center of the map, towards the west, OR towards tisy/ NW of the map where it will take a while to get to. Having a base in these areas also guarantees that you’ll be fighting geared players, AND it’ll take a while to prepare and move items to and from your base if someone wants to raid you living in these areas. Of course these are just suggestions based on personal experience. If you’re gonna build apartment base, you NEED to have a huge clan as it’s only viable if you have multiple people to defend, loot for building supplies, and help fortify the apartment as best you can.

[@timdinh39]

One of my BEST bases were at a apartment base up north, BUT I had at least 8 people to help and it took ALOT of nails and time to fortify it right. If you’re gonna build in an apartment, you gotta fortify it ALL THE WAY in the first day or there’s no point. Now I only play with 2-4 people and what we find works best instead of constantly losing loot to a raid is to make stashes buried. If anyone wants good places to stash let me know! So far I’ve always used the same spots, and two of them NEVER been found after using the same spot every wipe so far.

[@sandymcaleese8597]

That was 1000% a cheater that killed you at the end, I hate cheaters. And it was probably the same player that got into your base, such a shame

[@chromegnats]

@@mackenzieayres8057spoilers… that being said, it’s kind of silly to expect the comments to remain spoiler free. It’s just not possible/practical without turning them off all together, which no one wants. If it’s that much of an issue for you, don’t go straight to the comments expecting people not to have mentioned anything from the video. Go full screen, watch, then check them out. Pretty simple but I’m sure you would rather just complain/try to make people feel like shit for leaving commentary on the video (the literal purpose of the comment section). 🙄🤦‍♂️

me too, tommorrow will be day four and ill have my lil solo base hidden off in the woods somewhere. maybe a garage or something or chicken coop type situation like in the beginning of part 1, if a tent will fit in there.(if i can find some damn pliers). ive just been hiding stash spots like Raff was, but im learning quick. im solo atm but my server is alot more chill than what ive seen you on. i quite enjoy your stuff brotha.@@Ar-k

[@RedFrog_191]

arggggh I just spent the entire day raiding a cool base in the mountains! It was well looked after and none of the walls had any damage. I went all around the map finding explosives and eventually I had everything and went back to the base to destroy it. I finally took down the walls only to search through the barrels to find nothing…

[@ParkerDashlookinahh]

Ar-k the only KZbinr that can give make you relax, to suddenly toss you into a intense, gruelling fight that gives you heart palpitations❤❤❤❤ great videos though!

[@aso6437]

GG's Bro another dayz story has been told.

[@aldworth33]

Me and my friends made a base at those apartments on kryptic, we walled off the bottom of one side made a bridge across and made doors all the way up the other side so to be raided they had to raid up one side across the bridge and down the other side, nobody ever raided us which was a shame but I don't blame people for not trying it 😂 we also had 5 helis at one point too was such a laugh that wipe

[@anakinhudson2181]

With every end there is a beginning every dawn there is a dusk but there always is a tomorrow. This day may have come to an end but you have learned a lot and gained more allies in game and on youtube (this comment is a bit mushy but just wanted to show that I enjoyed it and really want to see more.)

Really enjoyed these two videos mate. So nice to hear someone else get as hyped for NVGs as me! You really captured so much of what makes this game great, and I actually fancy building a base for the first time after watching this. Especially as you did it with someone you met in game. Really look forward to your future content, keep it up! ❤

[@talebansam1609]

a good day z video idea is get plastic explosives and detonators place the plastic explosive connected to the detonator in a bush connect the detonator to a tripwire it will explode killing anybody in the radius of the explosive. and in the video for 4 months ago where you tried to raid that base but couldn't because you didn't have a case. all you needed is the detonator the case you can put 2 plastic explosives in to make it better and you would need an electrical kit as well.

Getting raided for everything after hoarding so much gear is like opening a sliding door and letting all of the air conditioning out of the house in the middle of summer. I started just builing improvised shelters scattered around the map in the bushes, only store food, ammo and good clothes in them. I keep 1 or two long guns on me and I don't give other players the chance to strike it rich from my work. To me DayZ is a post apocalyptic survival game, not The Sims 5.

[@burtlangoustine1]

So, directional damage indicators, are still in the game right? Because aimbots aim dead centre, the character just stutters to death without any directional damage indicators plus no missed shots from an automatic further suggests the shooter had no issue of kick or recoil... Cheats often only activate their tools once their pal gets shot. Their emotions trigger and they throw caution to the wind. Trigger a suspected cheater by downing their pal, it works most times. Cheats are twats, fear of 'losing' in dayz is misplaced. Actually, in dayz, the lack of certainties thoroughly add to the gaming experience.With weakness comes challenge.
