I accidentally made my base there and am glad to see your video! First time playing the game, I decided on the spot because I found the open space and clear waters comforting and the scenery pretty.
My favorite base locations: The biggest underwater floating island, along the wall of the inactive lava zone with a thermal reactor on top for infinite energy, on thermal vents in the lost river, the ghost egg tree. You picked a good spot, at first I was hesitant because the sparse reef is... well, sparse, but as soon as you showed the circle on the map I could see exactly why. I might do the same now
Imo, Blood kelp zone (near the gun) is the best area to have a base, you're near everything, entrance to go deeper, just use a stasis gun and kill that ghost lev. if not bulb zone near the aurora just besides the void that has that vent area, it's far away from pesky leviathans, but close enough to the most resource rich area for it being close enough to the other entrance to go deeper edit: Those two are great because its walking distance to the mushroom area when using a prawn suit to go mining for copper n shit (late game building is such an ass for resource gathering)
Actually kinda crazy you made this vid. This was my first ever base spot and in future play throughs, I thought about building somewhere else but that spot is just too good and I could never bring myself to build anywhere but there.
I like to switch it up with each playthrough to get a different experience each time, my current playthrough I built my base in the Northern Blood Kelp Zone cos I like the spooky atmosphere and the biome itself and the neighbouring Underwater Islands biome are pretty good for resources, tho the Grassy Plateaus were a candidate so I might go there for my next playthrough
There is no ”the right answer” when it comes to something like this Sure, this base is very practical with it being located at the meeting point of various resource-filled biomes, but is severely lacking in things like ambience and atmosphere. Being located close to beautiful and interesting biomes isn’t good enough when its actual location is so bland and empty This is a very good choice if you only care about easy access to resources and other important biomes, but overall, it’s _far_ from perfect
mine while me using the cyclops as a base with everything in need the only place i builda base is in biom ilike the music playing since thers no below zero jukbox

Same! Not exactly in that place, but very near.
Such a great spot for resources and travel.
Enjoy the game!
I made mine on a rock of the grassy plateuas, at the perfect height so a reefback would swim over my base, it was beautiful.
I put mine in a spot very close to this and I can confirm, its a good spot
If you have trouble with maps like I do, this area is (roughly) 660m Southwest of your safe shallows escape pod.

You're wrong the actual best base place is the one where i placed mine
In the crater
Pathetic, real MEN build in the void with their Ghost bros.

good vid man
Mid to late game id recommend the Cove tree as a Base location
i like to build deep in the lost river ass soon as i can
Thats a pretty good place i think
I guess not for early game but mid and endgame it could come in clutch
good video
Good for competent people. I made a base there when i first got the game and went a little too far west.
Very bad time
