Grounded Gameplay of the new Grounded Update by Mediocre Milton but not with Sir Sim-Alot or JADECRAFT, there's also no Blitz Grounded or Jade PG, oh and no ImCade or Fynnpire either, Obsidian Entertainment made the Grounded New Update! - เกม

You can wall in wolf spiders during the day while they are sleeping and it will stop them from coming out and patrolling at night if you have problems with them roaming around your base at night.
I heard that didn’t work, and the spiders would teleport outside and then never go to sleep again. 😂
That was a while ago though.
@@The.Nasty. they do on occasion actually but you can make them respawn inside by killing them when that happens.
My friends and I had tried that, and by day two, we ruined his sleeping pattern and he never went into his little cave again.
I play with 2 of my sons and wife. One of my sons and I were out collecting resources and exploring. We stumbled on a wolf spider cave and blocked him in while he was sleeping. I hung around for awhile to see if he could get out or if he would attack it and escape. To my surprise, even when I was close to the wall (not too close tho) he would just walk into the wall until he went back to sleep.
My son got the idea to put a door in the corner of the wall we made, to make it look hidden and would drop hints here and there in conversation that we had a hidden base with some extra loot we found. Eventually my other son, his older brother, found the cave and immediately ran in to nab our stuff. Worked like a charm and it was a fantastic experience for everyone else to witness.
I found out the infected wolf spider can get in the soda can and hit you threw the wall lol
One thing that I learned rather quickly is that if you lure a difficult bug to the ant hill? That bug will die because the ants keep spawning, and the enemy bug will be in a never-ending fight with the ants. You also get a lit of free ant parts.
Thanks. I've been trying to figure out how to do that. I will have to go try it now.
@@kevn33 wear ant armor so that the ants don't attack you.
One Ladybird/bug was on a mission to single-handedly take out every living ant in that ant hill lmao
The ant hill on the west??
You can do this with any mobs like spiders, ladybug/bird, and rolly pollies
I think something a lot of people forget about, or don't know is that the little radio looking thing inside every lab and field station can be used to track basically any resource you have analyzed. It will even point you to which web sac/cluster has which bug part you want!
Once I learned the timing on that parry, I pretty much trivialized almost every encounter in the game. It was insane. Especially with how they stagger. I feel like that is one of the most invaluable skills to learn.
If you prefer 2-h weapons the Koi Scale Armor helps. Having that bigger perfect block window can help make sure you get it if your timing is slightly off. Of course, if you are not confident in your knowledge of bug attack patterns it can be fatal being light armor with a few missed blocks. High Risk, High Reward.
@@nocti6232 same with the parry mutation.
I tried it with an Orb weaver spider. Parried twice but the third strike killed me 😭😭😭
@ktearose facts!
Do not sleep on the koi armor! The bonus to parry window will give you parries that you do not deserve
3:08 the weevil walks in and see you brutally killing that mite and just immediately backs away LMFAO
"what's over here, hey how you- ya know what i don't want no smoke"
I love grounded so much, the devs have a nice humor and its like your playing a survival game genre for the first time again because you dont know what everything does, thanks for the no spoilers it makes the experience better and with tips
One tip I can add is when you come across a landmark of some sort like a juice box or can or anything else be sure you pan your camera up and look at it so it gets discovered (can be stubborn). Too many times people just walk by something a dozen+ times and never discover it. Why do you want to do this? Natural Explorer mutation which makes you run faster. Combined with Aphid Slippers you can really run!
Getting the locations to trigger is killing me, especially on juice boxes
Recent update says they made discovering things more consistent. 🍻
Especially with the somewhat recent changes to Natural explorer, now you run even faster!
You can build stairs out of nothing but grass planks by combining half walls and half floors. There appears to be no height limit to this either.
OMG THIS TIP IS A BLESSING THANK YOU
Yooo pro tip right here 👌
Also you can make an elevator out of trampolines. Look into it if you haven’t
A huge tip that helped me is that you can cancel any attack into a block. With a shield or without. Super helpful against hard hitting enemies
hell yes, thank you for this
Here's a tip I discovered. When you make mushroom slurry or whatever it's called. Besides turning it into bricks you'll see that right click is drop. Find a weevil and drop it in front of it. Give it a sec and now you have extra storage space. Don't worry about leaving them behind. They will catch up eventually!
What is your preferred pet? I heard they said aphids give sprint stuff?
@@locket9160 I think aphids take away the stamina cost of sprinting? I’m not sure tho.
You can have gnat pets too that help with dandelion glide speed, they like spoiled meat slurry
The EverChar Torch is brighter than other torches and can be used in the pond as well as in land. It’s also repairable making it much better than other torches.
So the final upgrade version of the torch is better than all the previous versions????? Wha?!?!?!?
try firefly head lamp
@@binhchau6036 I used it for a little while but didn’t like that it took up an armory slot. When you have to put the torch away (2 handed weapons) you can always turn up your gamma a bit.
@@kooz7553 theirs only (I think) three torches, one for each tier. The EverChar torch is the tier 3 version not an upgrade of the others.
Glad this has no spoilers, because I've seen way to many already. I've already put 200 hours into the game but I played most of that with no spoilers completely figuring out things on my own and man I did some dumb stuff looking back. Starting a new save for the full experience of 1.0 and having a blast especially since I know what to do now haha.
i plan on getting the game tomorrow is it good?
@@michael_m38 yesss
Absolutely
I don’t worry much when it comes to spoilers but I do know it bothers some people. I was really happy to hear it quickly into the video that homie was looking out for everyone. When I got to the end I had to toss a like his way and comment a bit.
Good looking out
A side note; You can relocate a pallet while carrying a full stack of weed stems or grass planks on your character as well.
You feel old when the word 'parry' is no longer common video game vernacular.
That leather thing was exactly what I needed! Also with enemies like the bombardier, stinkbugs and lady bugs I like to lure them to the anthill and they’ll kill them for getting too close
I just started a new save, decided I wanted some red ant mandibles for the club so I went to a nearby stink bug and lured him to the ant hill. He got stuck on the ant hill and started gassing all of the soldier ants and worker ants and killed everything while I watched from a safe distance. I finished him off which only took a few hits and walked away with stinkbug parts, a gas sack and TONS of red ant parts and mandibles 🤣
@@rovers141 I remember doing that my first playthrough, it’s fantastic!
That berry leather tip is a game changer, thanks
you can also relocate entire chests full of resources if you're doing a big build and your bag space isn't enough, also never underestimate the power of daggers, the attack speed is double that of swords due to the faster animation (even when the game says they're the same speed) I've killed everything with daggers.
Tip #11: if you didnt have arachnohobia before, YOU WILL AFTER. Some look to be the size of an SUV and will run your ass down while biting it
Tip #12: spiders + night = DETH. Wolf spiders are nocturnal hunters. Meaning they hunt at night. And they are deadly early game DO NOT EVEN TRY.
Also its terrifying to be in a cave, your torch go out, and all you hear is that hiss/howl before youre zero'd
I learned most of this just by playing but bug parts in web sacs is new for me and a huge help. I thought they only contain web and spiderlings. .
U can also hold planks/stems in your hand while relocating the pallet.
Ant armor, workers haul smoothie, haul badge make it easier.
The water dome has an automated muscle farm. They make a great potion base, serving as my primary HP potions. Toss a marker on the dome exit if not a zip line to a landing pad above it.
You can use the pebblet spear to fight underwater, stabbing and throwing. The non-aggressive pond creatures are a 1 shot throw with javelineer equipped and the pebblet spears float to the top if you miss.
I have a good way for beginners to kill bigger insects: Throw the pebble axe (or speer). It will do way more damage than normal hitting. And when you build yourself like 15 or so you can kill spiders way faster
Wolf spider gets stuck by the tree I build my house on a leaf and when it attacks it gets stuck farm that venom
If you wear the complete ant armor, they think you belong to them and don't attack you,
I haven't tested yet whether it works with the spider armor, I'm still missing the helmet
The "arrow to get the dew" works with anything that can be thrown. I once had been on a looting spree and accumulated over 40 rocks, and I just used that to grab dew (or when trying to hurt a monstie from afar)
I’m playing this game at the minute and i’m hooked! So much more enjoyable than other survival games
Another tip for more fiber is to break the bottoms of the grass stalks after you chop them down
Been playing since alpha and the best quality of life updates so far have to be:
Walk over arrows to collect and floating backpacks on death. What do you think?
yea love the new update
I died on the flying disc that's stuck in a tree but my backpack spawned in the ground next to a wolf spider. Like wtf
Now the quality of life is insane. Respawning at stations, only dropping materials on death (toggleable), sleeping until 6 AM, extra backpack row, 3 hot bar rows, etc. This game is great.
floating backbacks is really annoying if you are in the underwater lab because if you drown the backpack clips the ceiling and goes to the surface
If you use the spinning wheels and then go to bed once u wake up they’re all be done. Quick tip if u need resources fast and can sleep. It’ll make everything done when u wake up
If you place an object at the bottom of a ladder and look down at it whilst on the ladder, you can relocate that object to a higher elevation instead of having to build a huge staircase to where ever you want it to go.
bro.
Thank you for this, very helpful. Loving Grounded so far, great game.
Thank you this is what I’ve been looking for no other Yt did it the way u did and I appreciate that and all your hard work you’ve gained a follower
When moving a full grass pallet or weed pallet, fill up on all the weed stems or grass planks you can carry too.
I make rope by hand to make room in my inventory when wandering around and weave string with 4 weavers.
I took the time to build a grass hallway leading to certain areas to be safe from enemies. I also make it possible to kill enemies at specified areas within the hallway.
one time when i was playing i was exploring behind the tree and stumbled across a sleeping wolf spider, and at the same time my sca.b went off and i immediately said, "idc if there's a field station near here. because that right there is what we call a wolf spider, and i am NOT messing with that!
The pallet and Zipline tips were so simple but so genius! Thank you
The part with the bow shooting the dew, I found out that simply throwing your weapon or tool works the same, and you can just jump to get it back, and I think they fall on their own too.
Great video, are you planning a video for today about the new things that have come with the full release? I’m stuck at work and looking for things to look forward to when I get home
Thank you! Very useful! I didn't know many of this things
FYI the pallet trick works with storage containers as well
I love that a game accepted that people move storage boxes filled with things. Every other survival game I've played has never had that
@@joeymiller5331 Yeah it's surprising. I'm chopping grasses and moving it to my base until I find this video. It makes me feel dumb 😂.
building your own short cuts around the maps is very helpful
Ive returned recently to grounded since the mosquito update. And i must say wow soo much has changed, ive had to re-learn the whole game
That flower pedal tip just helped sooo much. I’m trying to get lady bug armor and I was like why are there only 3 pedals
this video had me second guessing the info. i thought i knew everything but as the video progressed i learned a few important tips! youre awesome, Thank you!
3:08 that little weevil saw you smash that lawn mite then said nope right out of there
If you purposely die with your backpack filled with rare items from different parts of the map. Your can transfer all lost backpacks once per day back to the suitcase to retrieve them alll in one fare swoop in the starting settings.
I needed this. Stumbled upon the deadly area and got attacked left right and centre and died. Didn't know how to get back there, without dying, to retrieve my stuff
Good helpful vid bro. I just started playing. Love it.
You can collect water drops by throwing pebbles as well
Dang this might be the best tips video I’ve ever seen. Great speed and right too the point
Very useful tips 👍, now moving a pallet full of grass or stems will be so useful to make camps 😊
Oh man, I just started playing this and built a base on a Lily pad as well. Opening scene affirmation.
I notice the game updated so some older vids no longer help so this vid is extremely helpful ty 😎 if anyone wants to farm webs now the hedge is best area orb weavers easy to kill there plus eggs 😉
It was so helpful i liked and subscribed 😎
I just started playing this game and @4:36 I just throw a rock at the water droplets and it will fall down. Rocks are plentiful everywhere.
O la! A 'breakthrough'! Totally stuck on Tier 2 bug parts. Thank you!😎
Thanks for these tips! :D
Always put fresh enchant on the tier 3 black Ox hammer because a majority of bugs weak to busting are also weak to fresh. I honestly use my tier 3 ox hammer w fresh and tier 3 termite ax w spicy more than most of the weapons in the game. And I’m in late game upper backyard area.
I like using the mint mace instead and putting salty on the hammer for black ox beetles
One really good tip is in the beginning when you’re weak and can’t fight anything is to first have the full ant armor set and lure tough bugs into the ant hill and let the ants take care of the threat and then you’ll have a bunch of dead ants plus whatever you tried luring in. My favorite to lure in is the stink bugs since they can kill a lot of the ants
Thanks Milton.
I'm starting a file tonight and appreciate the tips.
Solid content thxs!
Good tips but i figured that stuff out on my own, one thing i didn't know though i just discover is you press u to copy any object you crafted you don't have go through the menu evetime. Just press u if you want multiple of the same chest for example or plank pallet.
I have trouble playing this game because of my arachnophobia so I always build walls around the tree spider area to block it from coming out, NO IDEA IF THATS A GOOD IDEA, sometimes the walls were broken too
Ya know there's a mode specifically for people with arachnophobia that makes the spiders less scary?
Theres a mode to make them not look like spiders. But i also blocked them in because i just dont like spiders 😂 my friends didnt like that because they like farming the spiders
skill issue
Phobias are some of the most goofy and illogical things I can imagine humans concocting. It's a game.
These videos are great, love the narration. Is there any way to keep "run" auto-toggled on Xbox though? I feel like I'm clicking my LS every two seconds trying to propel my toon around the map. It gets tedious.
You can also carry planks while transporting a pallet full of planks 😊
Another tip to add is you can chop down grass as well as other chop-able things faster by throwing your axe at it once you get the hang of throwing and picking up the axe its much faster but does more dmg to your axe. On a side note don't try throwing your axe at clovers while its faster to do so the axe sticks into the clover stem which falls through the ground along with your axe.
Bruh I've got 300hrs in the game and I had never thought of trying to put building materials ON the zipline. That blew my mind!
You can also throw your axe or spear at dew drops and can stand directly beneath them and slurp them before they even hit the ground
After you chop down a piece of grass you can cut down the bottom part of it to get I think it’s 4 fiber it might be 3 though
Also you can take all the sap from the collector if you go to the base of it
i had literally no idea about equipting mutations... i also spent forever trying to figure out why my danelion wouldnt work and keep falling to my death
Thats good ive forgot how to peep well i know how to peep press why but im sure i press x aswell while in peep mode on the insect and also ive gone to rake rock point with gas mask it wont let me peep the infected ladybugs
I’m a little late but I just wanted to say I am trying to beat the game without armor. It’s gone well, pond and haze labs are done, I plan on beating the broodmother but no other bosses
When your oxygen reaches zero you will drown. Thank you for the enlightenment
Some secrets I wish I knew were that there is a secret lab in the wall at the milk carton, and gives a decent weapon and trinket, and there’s even a secret cave that gives a rotten ant club which is pretty decent at the start of the game and a blueprint for the ant head on a stick, which is gruesome but awesome if you want to display your hate for ants!
You can build shelves using half floor and half walll to organize your chest better.
not sure if my game is bugged or what, but barbarian works with pinch whacker for some reason? bug or something new? please look into it
Since when do you instantly die in water when you run out ta 02?
Another tip I feel like it's pretty obvious but I missed it in the first half hour of playing the game, when you chop down grass for grass planks it leaves the remnant stock on the ground and you can chop it down for additional plant fiber. Same thing for the dry grass but in additional dry grass chunks. Waste not want not! 😁👍
If you leave the base then grass will grow back unsure if it works for dry grass as I haven’t paid enough attention to it
@@DBrew4xD yepp I have noticed that. And no for the dry grass it wont grow back because its dead.
The dandelion stumps give even more fiber than the grass
Yes they do, but when you completely chop them down they don't grow back so if you would like some things to regrow so you can use them again don't chop them all the way down.
I noticed if you wear the red ant armour the warrior red ants ignore completely
thats the set armor perk
this game has lots of bugs
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The color of the exclamation is for the type AND the REAL use of shooting an arrow instead of hitting the grass is when the droplet is above dirty water. You need the timming tho...
Pro tip for when you need to move a lot of materials:
You can relocate a palate WHILE you're carrying a stack of stuff in hand! Put ant armor on to carry 8, and workers comp smoothie makes for 10. Then relocate the stack at the same time and you have plenty of supplies!
at 4:57 im glad im not the only one that has crazy freezes/lag when i peep something kinda far
Thanks for the sick 900 hour analyzer tip
After I saw enough landmarks to get natural explorer up and carried around aphid slippers, suddenly running everywhere didn't feel like a chore because I got so fast
Make a stuffed spiderling and activate it before going to harvest egg sacs for better luck getting bug parts
wow, we should do the things the tutorial taught us to do and not run out of oxygen while swimming. Well thank goodness I found this video! After 900 hours that's your hot advice? I appreciate anyone who is doing their part to help and educate new players but why not tell us to not run out of health while you're at it?
I got the unlimited glider early game, (dandelion tuft sparkly) was awesome until i got better trinkets for fighting and would forget to switch it back and die an hour later from fall damage thinking i had it equipped LOL
Very helpful 👍🏻👍🏻
ASL terminal new or just a replacement of talking to burgl for quest? I haven't played since they introduced the antlion update
For sure was before 1.0 coz im taking quests from there from now on but i dont know back when they got added coz i started playing recently.
It's a replacement
Holy f sh!t...Thank you so much, especially for last 3 and with sap catcher!!!
If you block with the crossbow it skips the reload, so you can rapid fire it
The most important thing I’ve ever learned is just like the berry leather, you can dry out pupa leather with a jerky rack
Fastest way to get plant fiber is to chop the base of the grass blade, it drops 4-8 fiber no reason you should be spinning fiber when you can get 100 in a minute
It's a short term fix I have had grass not grow back by doing that or it take a lot longer to grow back
This right here. Dude has 900 hours and brought nothing good to the table
THIS HELPED
I love how these tip videos tell you to analyze shit yet you literally have to in order to craft anything or progress
I have clover and sprigs it will not let me build a lean to! I built one by accident on worry free mode then ran to my mild story mode and tried to build again and couldn’t. Please help it’s been over a month I like the game but the nagging notification to build a lean to is giving me anxiety 😂
Before watchin I learned early that it’s faster to harvest grass wit level 1 axe if u throw em twice instead of slashing 10 times waaaay faster when speed building stuff
lol ive been playing for 3 days the next thing i was going too look for is best places to build a base cheers mate
I figured all these tips in 20 hours in the game, but i didn't know you can dry berry for leather
