Yet another project from the Bob Ross of construction, "I'm gonna get the custom wall out again... bring this across, and put a nice little door there."
Just wanted to say that as of May 31st 2018, this build is still possible. It is extremely tricky to place the custom floor, but with some patience you can eventually get it. I am building out the Cannibal Tower house now in my game, and I love this location and build! Thank you, Farket for this suggestion and tutorial. I am just getting into the game and I am completely obsessed with it lol. Your tutorials have helped me so much since starting. The one thing that is completely lacking in the game is any sort of initial guidance, so your video's have taught me so much. Please keep it up!
so I was having the game running while I watched this video. Somehow I died in the game without knowing and the game went back to the main menu. The menu music then started going over this video, but I wasn't realizing that, thinking that the uploader made the video so. The combination between the menu music and his voice made up for a very pleasant feeling. Give it a shot!
Okay. Amazing. My favourite so far. Can’t believe it took me this long to find this video. I’m pretty creative with my builds but I’ve never thought of this. Utilizing the existing climbing ropes and making it triangle to avoid collisions.. very clever.
built it yesterday with help from a buddy, i thought i was gonna give up, it was extremely hard. One thing to note, the single rock pillar doesn't work anymore, atleast didn't work for me but it worked when i made a small triangle on top of the cannibal towers - similar to the support column, just thinner. Two stories desfinitely recommended! And another note: the latest flying weiner monster kinda now spawns close to the lake, so watch out. Disturbed me a lot while i was building x.x I have no idea if it can destroy the base though cuz i didn't play long enough for it spawn after finished building it. And Thanks a lot for this great tutorial!
I did this today and it worked, with modification (PS4). As OptiriuS stated, it works if you build a triangle rock pillar on top of the cannibal tower: 3-sided 2x2 walls. I did not need to add a second layer. For the third pillar I built a single width rock pillar. To start the floor I had to climb the first tower and start it in manual mode, then I was able to get the other two points from in the water. Tricky though. Another tip: instead of building a house boat to get elevation, I used Farket's 2x roof trick. That only cost me 8 logs and some rocks.
Alright, I'll admit it, I absolutely loved the transition to the furnished product. Overall design concept is cool, but as usual too big and complex for me. It'd be cool if I could just extend the platform of a single stand to hold a barebones camp of essential amenities. I'd say I'd be worried about a future update letting the cannibals utilize those towers but that just reminds me how worried I am they'll update the cannibals to enter and exit caves, rendering my current favorite roosts just as inhospitable as anywhere else.
I always appreciate your feedback, you're not afraid to tell me your honest opinion. You should join my discord discord.gg/HuSSahh as it would be easier to converse about such things. I don't think cannibals will be able to climb this. They have had them in the game for a very long time, they would of added it in by now, though I dont want to jinx it. Then again, the ropes are in the water so they shouldn't be able to access them. I have never seen cannibals enter or exit caves, is that something that is new?
No no, just saying I'm even more worried about cannibals possibly being given access to cave traversal than the ability to climb the fishing stands. It may never happen, but I can't help think of a future where cannibals can swim, climb, and traverse caves freely. Frightening, but awesome. I'll join the discord soon.
Hey! After maybe be a year I found the Forst in the deep ocean of my steam-library. I enjoyed all the new stuff and had a lot of fun with my mate in co-op. I ended up doing some research and looking for some great building ideas or general tips and tricks. Well... then i found you! - Calm voice bot not one of those emotionless and enthusiasm less ones. - Precise Guides with so much great information - even some research and preferences by urself. I could clearly see how much time you spend on editing, researching, self exploring or even the idea itself. I was very impressed by your work. Then I was it was all up to date. Immediately new guides, when old ones are out-dated. New information just so few time after a new patch! Filled with your own experience and Tipps to save your subscribers time and frustration. To put it in a nutshell: there was no excuse for me to not subscribe ;)
I am amazed at how patient you can be with building in forest. For me I'll start raging if those blueprint's don't allign lolz. Btw LOVE your videos keep up the good work!
2024 ps5 here and IT WORKS. I struggled with the floor not snapping on to the stone pillars like everyone else. Here is how I did it: stone triangles on the lookout towers (not single pillars) built 2 boat houses with a stick holder on the roof in a corner. Position one house boat under your stone supppot tower and the other house boat under a cannibal lookout tower. Climb rope of the 2nd cannibal tower and place the first point on your stone triangle. Jump into the water and get onto your house boat under the stone tower, climb on to roof and on top of stick holder and it will finally register to place it/snaps in. Repeat same thing on the other house boat under the final tower (lookout). Nothing was working for me until I was on top of the stick holder and it finally connected. Im sure there are other ways to do it but this is what I came up with
100% this is still possible, people saying you can't place custom floors on rock walls and snap are incorrect. I made it happen a minute prior to this post (PC). It's just very temperamental regarding height of the rock walls
funny, that's exactly what i did right at my first game! i was discovering the island, learning how to play really, and i find this beautiful lake with 2 wooden pillars and ropes.. i thought that i had to build a house beetween the two! unfortunately i didn't know your useful buildings tips yet.. so i did everything using fondations, cost me tons and tons of logs. all of this for a bit of a clunky house with many irregularities in the global aspect. but i'm happy that i did it, it's my cosy clunky base :P thanks for the vids !
There are 3 locations for building this that I have discovered, the forest map links for these locations are in the description. Let me know what you think, I would love to see some designs you come up with. Cheers P.S FAQ Part 2 will be out tomorrow
Goose lake, obviously, and the other clump of 3 lookout poles by the northern village overlooking the lake, what's the third? You need it in deep water or they will knock out any manual rock pillars you place, like you had to here, honestly I was a bit confused why you didn't just use that 3rd lookout pole that's on land over there on the other side of Goose Lake. If you are building on those 2 lookout poles by the cliff overlooking the Northwest Bay I GUESS you could extend it out into the sea far enough to be deep enough water to be safe, but it just begins to ruin the fun of building ONLY on the cannibal structures, as a f$@# you to the cannibals; when you build right from the ground it feels rather mundane
As of January 2021 you can no longer place the Skull Lamps in the window like you did which sucks because that looks so cool that way but other than that it all works. I went two stories but its kinda cramped down stairs and the bone chandeliers are too low so i kept it single story to raise the roof.
In theory can't you build your own floating structure just by making your own Stone pillar is without having to build around the Rope platforms to climb up? Only a couple feet off the ground so the cannibals can't get to you and then possibly zipline into it elsewhere? Or maybe even build your own rope to climb in and out of it I have an experiment with those yet so I don't know how they work
I built a base like this once but smaller and my friend said he did all the work and it was his base but I didn't argue with him cus it wasn't worth the effort and now he's got a 3 story tall building while our walls are bing easily destroyed
Very interesting build Farket! Maybe a possible suggestion ot figure out a video for how rock walls collapse and how they dont? Be a thought for you ;) Cheers!
Hey man, i have a small problem, i keep gaining weight even thought i only eat 2 generic meats per day, i have this problem since i started building up my strenght, im now at 217 LBS and i keep gaining weight. Also, i wanna point out that i don't eat snacks or drink sodas.
@Callum Keenan i try 10 times and finally i made it....very hard to find finish spot. One problem is also, the floor is higher than expected...hard to jumo over there....i make second floor also another tower whats in the woods about 5õ meters away.....now i have to make a house there....problem is in the logs.....cant glitch it...
@@tahnehamilton5728 hey, finally i can make the floor....you have to build correct height stonewall and put not so . You have to start building on that stonewall that you made on the water. Add me and i will help you if you use ps4 .
Depends, I go through phases of using 4k, 1080p, and 2k. I am currently doing 2k all the time now. Use 50mbps on 2k recording while playing at 4k then render it at 50mbps
I did this but I did three stories ad the bottom story is a rock wall like a basement and the 2nd story has the zipline from the cliff and I can go back from he 3rd story. Also got a bridge going to gazebo
I know this video is 4yrs old, but I've been trying to build something like this base on PS5 and can't seem to get the rock pillars to work on top of the cannibal towers. Any advice? Thanks!
Question: where is a really good place to find respawning flares. I use the flakes to fight clusters of cannibals and mutants, but I only have 19 in my gun and don't want to use them up? If you could reply or mention in a Q/A that would be great, cheers 🍻

Love your videos man, you really put the serenity into a horror survival game :)
wow your voice is so calm i can relax after school watching your videos
I know these videos are old, but they are so so good. Quickly became one of my top 10 youtubers!
Gotten some great tips and tricks from your channel, much obliged. I had no idea about being able to bring in logs via Zipline.

Unfortunately I can't drop more than one like to a single video but u deserve it, I like the creativity
After you have the custom floor in your hand, press c, friends, then it will happen.

I like your chill voice and chill music
More of these ideas would be awesome. Sick beats
That transition at 12:30 was smooth af
Seems to me like you can use this idea to make a freestanding structure. By just using rock pillars.
Im just watching this now and I thought the background sounds were playing from my speakers but I had headphones on.

Amazing How you did this. I would Probably make 4 -5 stories Camp. Lowermost with double ceiling height to accommodate all the storage.
dude why u onhly got 7k subs? ur the forest god omg 5 months of work and work u deserved wayyy more :) nice work!
Hugh Jackman is that you? lol 1st time watching a video of yours, and I will be watching more! Great stuff
I found it was easier to place it on the second pillar by building a set of stairs. It does it almost easily
my god that transition at 12:31😍
man i love this channel
Can confirm this 100 percent still works, at least on ps4, just make sure your going two bricks width minimum when building. :)
My base is built on the top/side of that cliff.
This is perfect.
Sidenote, I'm on day77 and I can barely get a log sled full before I'm attacked.
I’m going to try and make this when I play.
I bet that new mutant would have no issue utterly destroying this base though.
