OH NOES! MY FIRST NEGATIVE REVIEW! IS THIS THE END FOR THE FOX!? Maybe I would have given it a better review if it was "MOAR & MOAR Distributing" but oh well! Let me know if you like or dislike Mohr & Mohr Distributing, and if you do like it, tell me why you do!
Git Gud Fox I wish I had a TH-cam account and was liking videos the whole time that I’ve been watching all these reviews. Sometimes I just have them playing in the background when I’m playing SOD2 cause I love the reviews and your “TH-cam voice”. Good job man
Just discovered your videos after playing some SoD 2. Got to say that these base guides are really helpful and entertaining. What is also a plus is that your voice is pleasant to listen to, which cannot be said for some other youtubers. Subscribed!
It always brings a smile to my face when you reference the "OG 1v1 Blood Gulch action." Halo was my favorite game growing up and me and my dad used to always play 1v1 snipers and Blood Gulch was obviously our favorite map.
Im glad you told us. I saw it when I captured the Dam as my electric outpost and said, holy crap, that's out there. I got a van at the dam and drove it back and I did not enjoy my commute back to work. Someone else said it was better then container. Thank you for your review!
The main advantage of Mohr & Mohr is the 2nd large facility option. If you gotta have 2 large facilities, then the long driving distance may be worth it, but honestly, I would just move into the Container Fort or into an entirely different region. One of the themes of the Foothills is that large facilities are just in short supply. The only bases with more than 1 large facility are Mohr & Mohr Distributing and the Container Fort. UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE TO FIND 2 MORE PEOPLE before I can get into the Container Fort... I may have to let the community's standards slide a bit until replacements are found...
Git Gud Fox I'm getting by with 1 large for now. Just a little pain tearing down, wait 30 min, rinse and repeat. 2 would be nice, but not worth the traveling time IMO. You put out great vids, keep them coming!
Hope this game supports modding some day. So many bases simply aren't fun to play because of the limited number or size of slots although there is actually PLENTY of room where other slots would fit in.
One of the themes of State of Decay is never having everything you want. It's the proverbial "you can't have your cake and eat it, too." It is SUPER frustrating at times and very much a love or hate it relationship with little middle ground. That's a good question, though. State of Decay 2 is currently not being sold on Steam which is a big part of the modding community though the original and the Xbox One port (Year One Survival Edition) is. Dunno if they support modding either, though.
Cant thank you enough for all these reviews, really helped on my RT takeover project, rn im working on my very last fully decked out RT base; Church on The hill!
@@GitGudFox the biggest; Green company: has 48 survivors I have them on the heartland map But I have RT 21 communities in total, working on my network communities next
It's funny in my current playthrough I'm using this as my second base and I actually like it it's far away there are no plague hearts plus there are not a lot of buildings around that area so it's harder for infestations to be near that base the only time you have to worry about hordes or sieges is when you're building up that base. The other good thing about this base is there is electricity and water nearby for outposts though it's mostly far away from everything else I agree with you there.
Now with the latest upcoming update where infestations pose serious threat, I think this one might be the safest base of all for being in the middle of nowhere.
I love Smashing zeds with my Modified dead proof Trucks and cars so the drive doesn't bother me, the fuel depot is useful, if u had to much food u can convert it to fuel which means if u have alot of food ur going to produce alot of fuel hence u need a large fuel depot for plenty of gas to travel with, also I use the 2 large slots for staging area to cancel out maintenance cost and auto shop to trade my friends car upgrades for ammo or guns, everything is stable and working, I like the base, ps 4 parking spots allows for more saved cars or trucks which is Badass too!!
Been in this base for few days even though L&K is slightly better I prefer M+M cause of the extra large base but L&K has better built in,I had fewer siege battles in M&M than L&K that was constantly,if u go a little more north there a shortcut close by,I finally built a lounge with the Xbox 👍😃super morale
Pretty much, except this base has a strange placement while Mike's is just off-centered. One of the strange things about this map is that only 2 of the bases have more than 1 large facility slot.
this is sweet, it saves 2k influence + 1 outpost slot with the generator and 1 small slot with the built in workshop. i get power from the generator, water from the still i put in, then i need a infirmary.... the workshop is built in, so... i have 3 small and 2 large slots to do whatever with? without the builder boon, this is a realy fast, cheap and big base to get up and running.
@@GitGudFox just finished the builder run, i didnt notice any less zombies around the base, seems the game doesnt spawn less zeds in rural areas. the generator takes 2 fuel for 30min power which i found rather steep. the base has a pretty good connection to the main east-west road and with a network of well placed outposts, the only reason to go to base is when the car is filled up with rucksacks. anyway, it was a quick and easy playthrough without trader or builder boon. nice big base with no expensive power/water outposts needed. ;)
Git Gud Fox I never thought of using your extra cars for storage. Question. Is it a good idea to level a survivor up then just leave them at base as a guard to defend while your out? I’ve been doing this and idk if I’m wasting a survivor. (Survivor has no 5th skill yet and I have found a book I want). I know this game is older but thank you.
I recommend making a brand new post for new questions because I see all comments in chronological order, excluding replies, meaning it was basically chance that I happened to notice you asked another question. The answer to your question is that it doesn't matter. All of your characters are likely to level up over time unless you specifically don't play them, so you'll have a lot of characters who are both maxed out and not currently being played. In fact, the reverse is better. If you only use 1 character and leave all your other characters unleveled, then you could be in trouble if your main character gets banged up or worse.
This base is much better when u are running all the red talon prefabs , I am on lethal for the first time and my layout goes as such, the 2 small outdoor-red talon watchtower and infirmary for threat reduction and injury recovery, then I have a large level 3 farm for all the food I need and a sniper tower in the other large slot for sniper cover whenever I call for it and lemme tell ya , the red talon watchtower and a sniper tower together pretty much make seiges irrelevant and I can just hang out by my locker doing my own thing cuz they got things covered 😂. Now inside I have the officers quarters and bunk room for beds and moral , both with white noise machines so I don’t need a kitchen or lounge cuz that right there is +30 passive and additional 10 or 20 when I activate latrine cleaning . For my other I put the red talon workshop , together with machine shop I can produce all the ammo I need quickly and do t need to swap ammo presses constantly, leave handgun on one and rifle on other . Although I agree that the fuel tank is useless , I just store excess stuff in cars also about the location , irl it would be a great location but in a game where npcs constantly nag you to run all over the map it’s pretty inconvenient. Anyway , there’s my 2 cents . ✌🏻
The thing is you want to apply that logic to all the bases evenly. Basically, if you say the letter A is good because of special features. You also need to apply those special features to B, C, D, and all the way down to the letter Z. If you apply the special features to all the bases, then you can once again evaluate how good they are in comparison to one another WITH the special features.
In this video you said that the large Fuel tank (+100 units storage space) is a waste. I think differently. Yes, it could have been a better built-in-facility. But it IS a built-in-facility. You don't have any downsides from it. You can store a lot of fuel to provide a buffer, if you need one (why is not important, better have it and don't need it than the other way around) And this is the facility that defines that home-area... a giant old tank that can be used to store fuel. Though I admit it would be nice to have a 100 storage unit for ALL recources instead of the small generic one you get instead in this location. But hey, don't shoot me over this. I'm someone who takes this game at my own pace and on an easier difficulty, so I often find myself with too much recources. Might be different on higher levels.
It's because any excess fuel that's overrunning the typical 35 resource limit can just be converted into fuel canisters which stack infinitely into your inventory, so if you brought some rucksacks home, and it pushed your fuel to 37/35, you could just make 2 cans of fuel dropping you back down to 35/35 or if you're on Nightmare Zone / Lethal Zone, 1 can of fuel since the cost is doubled. The downside of the facility is that each base has a certain amount of possible facilities allocated to it. It just means that the wasted facility is counted against this base when comparing it to other bases that don't have wasted slots and permit either more customizations or superior built-ins. There's always a disadvantage. Nothing occurs in a vacuum.
@@GitGudFox Ah ok, well I see these things with a relaxed smile, as I said I stick to the easier Levels. What you said makes sense and if I ever try anything over standard I will take your reviews into consideration! Thanks for responding btw... It doesn't happen often that I get a reply on a video that old!
@@GitGudFox Ah ok, preference of the YTer I guess. Im on your Container Fort video right now. I must admit, until now I never used that one... I will now! XD
The good news about the bases is that they're all going to work especially at Green / Standard Zone level. The other good news about the bases is that they'll all mostly work even at Nightmare / Lethal level. There are a few bases that can backfire on high difficulties, and they mainly revolve around being extremely cramped bases without a courtyard like the Bridge Fort and the Corner Office. Your AI allies don't do very well in constrained situations especially if they get hit with a bloater. It's why really wide open bases can perform very well like Whitney Field because it mainly has a wire fence as a wall and bullets pass through it fine. It means the base has near 360 degree fields of fire letting your allies shoot from just about anywhere in the base at some target.

This base reminds me of Mike's Concrete, with the generator and fuel storage.

@@tomduke1297 if you have someone with utilities the cost drops down to 1 fuel and the time is extended by half an hour

Possibly, it helps a lot for storing things.
