Statistically, although 100% of humans have brains, 90% are keeping theirs unused and "fresh", ready for a Zombie apocalypse. Zombies love fresh brains... 90% of the time.

Remembers me on

"You lend me 2 Dollar"

"Then i lend you 1 Dollar"

"So i owe you 1 Dollar and you owe me 1 Dollar so we are smooth."

Works well after a few beer

 
The purpose of the behemoth is to come in and do a lot of damage to your base. So it needs to be able to show up anywhere, like other blood moon zombies, rather than be limited to a PoI. It could do both, though.
Totally agree...100 % I want there to be something that can get through the untouchable base defenses..always said that...But it would be able to know where one is and take it on with friends too.

I always wanted breacher zombies...military guy carrying a rocket, or a scientist carrying nitro glycerine(bio fuel), or a miner carrying dynamite..etc ..to breach the outer walls or destroy the spikes to allow them to get inside...

think that would add a really FUN exciting aspect into the game....right now...you just hit that wall of BORING when your base is untouchable

regards

Ouch

Then simply dont build untouchable Bases, simply remove Reinforced Concrete and Steel Blocks from Recipes/Traders.

I feel really anoyed every time i see Zombies punching down a Steel wall of 4 Meters thick Steel.

Since A16 you can paint them if you want them.

(Btw i really think we can spare all that Polished Steel Blocks, since we can paint this texture)

when the time comes you will know where it is and as for your friends... when he shows up and starts playing with your sand castle... let me know where your friends are.... bet they will be grabbing all they can and running for the hills. :) Oh we can dream thats what will happen but what really happens is yet to happen :) i still havent fully healed from the first time he was put in the game... it wasnt pretty and i am eating my burgers right now and would like to enjoy them. :) i cant wait until he gets brought back in i miss him.

something else i would like to see in a17 for the vulture is the ability to knock a player down, which means if you were hiding up on the iron bars or cliff killing defensless zombies the vulture would knock you down from there.. that would be neat as hell.

If your favorite perch doesn't have a ceiling/awning/overhang above it to mess with vultures' pathing, you're doing it wrong. It's not perfect but it's close, and so easy it's silly.

Regarding behemoths and base wreckage, don't fight where you craft/store. Simple. Even a few blocks' distance works wonders.

We don't need more special one-trick fixes for player behavior, we need better general-purpose zombie behaviors. Gimmicks will always be countered, because unless they're completely unfair they leverage one weakness at the cost of creating other weaknesses. Players will learn to target the new weaknesses and the cycle continues.

I don't...never have---I like several small bases scattered throught the map....but still eventually with level and items....you hit the wall.

 
See the other side, if you cant build safe bases you deny towers you need to build on for weeks or Months.

No way to build a tower (and ALL towers can be destroyed by only destroying a few blocks of the socket) spend so much work in it only to wait for complete destruction only because RNG decide so

YOU play your way and that is Fine ... but not everyone wants to play with or have total destructible bases. Just my thought on the subject

The developers do. I think that counts for something...

 
I want an untouchable base. But I want it to be an effort to build. I'd rather see untouchable bases countered by reduction of loot in an area. Make satellite bases more of a need. Do that by simply making night rides on a mini bike more dangerous. I.E. a special wandering zombie horde that spawns in the path, and scattered a bit, of the direction a driver is going. Zig zag all you want. Eventually, you'll get annoyed with such driving and get caught. And the dismount interaction implemented, by zombie action (not terrain impacts!).

Even the devs can be wrong^^

As PC player i have not that big problem because we can mod. But i am really concerned about the Console players if they get all this stuff without alternatives.

Btw i talk not about inpenetrable bases, but 4Blocks of steel thick defense should easy withstand every hordenight.

Red are the SI Pillars the tower is based on

Blue is the Socket of steelblocks

4 high means you need 1216 Steelblocks.

It is serious work to realize that.

And now imagine you build a tower from Bedrock to max High.

You work 3 Real Month on it.

And then RNG decide to screw you.

Wrong or right there are going to be decisions made by the developers that some people aren't going to like. As far as I know there are zero plans to put a craftable block that is 100% impenetrable by zombies.

Want to build a tower without risk of it being ripped apart by zombies?

1) Mod the game

2) Disable zombies or

3) Play Minecraft

Console players will get 2 out of 3 of the options...
