you should have continued the tower from the rock ledge, where you laid a few foundations, that way theres some depth and its not just a big rectangle. i like what you have so far though
I TOLD YOU IT WAS A BIG RECTANGLE IM UNSUBBING im not actually unsubbing, not like you'd care. I like this series also the soundtrack for this game is amazing
Thomas Vann Ah. I don't think it's actually possible to build too close to other people's structures. The game doesn't allow it. Or least the server settings.
Dreagast, try looking up above the square you're trying to place the stairs on. You know, like you're trying to angle the stairs in the upwards orientation. Cuz it works that way when you want to place downwards. Worth a shot.
I love this series Draegast. Keep up the good work. I don't really care if they are building episodes or not, I am just happy with this series. This is my favorite series on your channel. You need to play more survival games like this. Keep up the good work and keep on playing the right games.
I really do appreciate your hard work and the time you put into making these video games for us! You definitely can tell that you do care and enjoy what you're doing..!! Really do enjoy your content/videos. THX ; )
Yo Dre you should try to connect your base to your guild's via the aqueduct ruins then just a small path along the cliff face (if it's okay with them of course, it could be a security risk)
the way some players were able to build bases on those high plateus was by building steps up tp the top. They use the triangle shaped blocks to change the direction of the steps to make it easier to hug the wall without using foundations.
Drae, if you do choose to enclose the stairs on top, do it with window walls instead of normal walls. Would look better, not as stuffy, and might even let you use them as a lookout
you should build semi round rowers on the edged of your castle using the triangle foundations, and maby you could use the same shing to make round battlements on the side of your castle as if there would be a tower below it.
There is a rotate build button. If you watched the devs play and review the game on the funcom channel you can find a lot of useful information. I suggest it. Love the series keep it up
do a 2 wall space(height) between every floor and you should do a 2x2 hole in the ceiling going all the way from bottom to top floor so you can see every floor from every floor, make more holes in dofferent places or going through just one floor or different sizes so it looks even cooler instead of being a 4 wall box boring base
I figured out what you had an issue placing the stairs, its cause they were getting to far away from connecting with support, since the stairs were beside the support but they don't count as connected to it, and the flat pieces at the corners are also not connected to your center support. If you would of enclosed it as you were building it the walls would of given support to the roof pieces.
I like watching Conan. Because there is random fighting people being goofy and this stuff. I think once your done building for your goal you'll be able to go back make it look cooler an fill your fortress with stuff. It was such a big project you had to star somewhere. I hope you do more vids like this.
+Draegast the issue you are having when placing the stairs happens because you are using third person view. Also, when you get the error on placing build pieces happens because the server is not replying fast enough.
2 questions 1:Is there a build limit for the hight for building? 2:Why dont you try to build al the way to that little stone pole on the top of the mountain? you can see what i mean on 22:04 Thanks
You should put smaller towers at the corners that are slightly inset so it doesn't look so boxxy from the outside and give more depth. Also adding a lip around the edges of the roof for ramparts. A lip around the crafting area would look nice for a balcony with pillars to the roof so I'd doesn't look so flimsy. Making things look thick and have depth gives it a strengthy vibe. Just google some pics of castles for some reference. There's no shame in that :)
I don't like the look of inner wall actually as well as low ceilings... which is dealt with making double walls and two story tall main rooms. Now I just need to find a way to hide entrance into the wall rooms. Maybe a drop from the upper floor to the ground level? Though those walls are quite cheap and I can spare a few every time I need to enter main storage...
hey draegast......when you gather stone use the stone pickaxe and use the metal one for iron and coal and stuff because its not worth the recources you got to make the metal one when you can get just as much with the stone👍👌
i like this spiral stairs much better, also it is smart to put multiple doors so if someone try to brak it would be harder and maybe he will give up, lots of people got raided i heard. also if you leave your guild i saw you cant use your house anymore because it will belong to your guild
Im pretty sure the reason you're having problems placing the stairs is because of the rotation of the foundations, similar to the problem you had with having to rotate the platforms for some reason the foundation isn't the same on all sides so you should place the foundations as you go rotating them until the stains like it instead of placing them all at once. Probably the reason the other castle had pillars for the centre of it's stairs
Drae, you should gather info on how people break things to get into someone else's base. Like hammering them down or what. If the situation comes, hopefully not, but if you ever have to build a new base because you get raided you might wanna check out a hexagonal design with fake entrances. I know you want to have a huge castle up to the sky, but its utility is not very high, unlike its height :P
and where you put thw lookout in the corner can you please put a pillar on the corner so it looks like support it just bugs me seeing the wall just hand there
Just a heads up foundations need to be lower to the ground two people can go through them so easily then they can jump on friends head and get in (they can crawl under)
I think it would look bad ass if you used spiral staircases to make lookout towers to the corners of the base to look like a true castle! I also think it would be cool if you called it "Thunder-dome Keep"
I think it would be better to start a new tower on the lower cliff, ideally after you expand your foundations across said cliff. Also, try putting a door at the top of the staircase that separates the inside from the roof.
Drake you should definitely get some armour and two handed weapon you can and probably should go xp gathering to spent all points on best two handed weapon
Draegast you have to get "The Forest" it has one of the best story lines I have ever seen in an indie game. It is somewhat similar to Conan Exiles or Rust but has a strong story line setting and open world like objectives. 10/10 You have to play it.
You could save up for stronger building materials and create a secret mountain bunker, wil likely come in handy later when destruction comes into play ;)
At first I doubted I would like the series (I'm not really into conan and stuff and the videos seemed really long) But after the first episode I was hooked, maybe you could incorporate some of those walls with windows, or rather holes into the stairwell walls that cover it up, I think it would really add something to it instead of being just plain walls. You could also do like a little patter thing going on with those on the outter walls, maybe add some balconies to your castle so it looks a little bit better and not just plain and boring, dont get me wrong your castle looks super cool and badass and I really love it and i'm super exited for it, but i'm just trying to give you some ideas! And i also love some of your ideas so im really exited to see what else will you do in the future, hopefulyl you'll see this comment drae, love your videos, keep it up
maybe place pilars under the stairs that go to your crafting station and in the corners of your crafting station. it will be visualy more pleasing and structurally make more sense. still, nice progress
you should have continued the tower from the rock ledge, where you laid a few foundations, that way theres some depth and its not just a big rectangle. i like what you have so far though
yeah good point, idk I think it will look alright
build in first person man.... for the love of god we dont need to see your reverse bowl cut.... first person will fix your build issues
Draegast drae if you haven't already seen zeuljane again he said he might be getting into clans/guilds
I TOLD YOU IT WAS A BIG RECTANGLE IM UNSUBBING
im not actually unsubbing, not like you'd care. I like this series
also the soundtrack for this game is amazing
draegast make this a endless series so you can have a base like johnbane's
How long are you going to do this series? Because I love it.
Marcnen I love them too
Marcnen same
I think until he get's raided by the others and he won't restart, or until he gets bored probably.
Yeah
hopefully he doesn't get bored anytime soon
I like how your castle is looking so far! You should also build out towards that stone bridge and use it as part of your castle.
Thomas Vann I know... I'm saying he should use it as part of his building, the same way he's using the mountain...
Thomas Vann No one made the bridge... It's a part of the environment, same as the mountain...
Thomas Vann Ah. I don't think it's actually possible to build too close to other people's structures. The game doesn't allow it. Or least the server settings.
DragoNate, you can build near other peoples buildings if they are in the same clan/guild. me and my friends tested it :)
Seagate2k Oh yeah, that's true, but if they're not in same guild, you can't. Which makes sense.
I love it when draegest plays survival games he makes it a lot more fun then expected
Dreagast, try looking up above the square you're trying to place the stairs on. You know, like you're trying to angle the stairs in the upwards orientation. Cuz it works that way when you want to place downwards. Worth a shot.
I really enjoy this series. One of the better ones recently. I do also really enjoy BeamNG and Besiege
I love this series Draegast. Keep up the good work. I don't really care if they are building episodes or not, I am just happy with this series. This is my favorite series on your channel. You need to play more survival games like this. Keep up the good work and keep on playing the right games.
Yes! This is my favorite series on TH-cam right now, even though every episode is 20+ minutes long haha. Keep it up!
Drae, you inspired me to start youtube! Thank you so much for being so amazing! :D
Love this series! And your castle is starting to look very nice!
Love the building episodes drae, keep up the great work
I really do appreciate your hard work and the time you put into making these video games for us! You definitely can tell that you do care and enjoy what you're doing..!! Really do enjoy your content/videos. THX ; )
thank you! I've been waiting for more CONAN!
Yo Dre you should try to connect your base to your guild's via the aqueduct ruins then just a small path along the cliff face (if it's okay with them of course, it could be a security risk)
awesome! glad you managed to record this in time
18:56 build to the very tippy top of that rock tower! Build a staircase huggin it and put and observation post on top!
Favorite channel on TH-cam. I could watch you cursing and building all day!!!!
Keep it going!!!!! Love your castle 👍👍👍👌👌👌
looking good my man, this game is looking amazing, keep up the good work
Good start so far. Love your videos.
the way some players were able to build bases on those high plateus was by building steps up tp the top. They use the triangle shaped blocks to change the direction of the steps to make it easier to hug the wall without using foundations.
The castle looks awesome, cant wait for the next episode!
Drae, if you do choose to enclose the stairs on top, do it with window walls instead of normal walls. Would look better, not as stuffy, and might even let you use them as a lookout
Honestly love this game, hope you keep at it for a while drae
you should build semi round rowers on the edged of your castle using the triangle foundations, and maby you could use the same shing to make round battlements on the side of your castle as if there would be a tower below it.
do you play with fans?
Fans don't have hands
Tim Wever pranked bro
gg
xD sorry... not this kind of fan... no for real. may for coop. farming stuff and so on
no... im 9 and my name is kevin so please tell me
quite a good idea for a building and I think that there ir a good balance in the videos :D grat job dreagast
love the series! keep it up with much love!!!
i love it your plans sound right and bedshaper sounds good ^^
There is a rotate build button. If you watched the devs play and review the game on the funcom channel you can find a lot of useful information. I suggest it. Love the series keep it up
I LOVE the building. Looks so good
It's coming along nicely Drae.
do a 2 wall space(height) between every floor and you should do a 2x2 hole in the ceiling going all the way from bottom to top floor so you can see every floor from every floor, make more holes in dofferent places or going through just one floor or different sizes so it looks even cooler instead of being a 4 wall box boring base
On the left edge of the balcony please add some supporting walls, I like the open idea but I feel like it shouldn't fully wrap around.
Love your Conan exiles videos! Greetings from Denmark! :D
I figured out what you had an issue placing the stairs, its cause they were getting to far away from connecting with support, since the stairs were beside the support but they don't count as connected to it, and the flat pieces at the corners are also not connected to your center support. If you would of enclosed it as you were building it the walls would of given support to the roof pieces.
the spiral stairs will help if you need to defend, is a good chokepoint
We have to go higher !
Nice Spice and Wolf pic you have! ^^
Kracen Games88 indeed
fucking weabos stfu
cant wait till this game comes out in steam it mixes my 3 favorite things building, survival, and medieval
drae i LOVE your stairs!
I like watching Conan. Because there is random fighting people being goofy and this stuff. I think once your done building for your goal you'll be able to go back make it look cooler an fill your fortress with stuff. It was such a big project you had to star somewhere. I hope you do more vids like this.
pleas play this more often this is my favorite
How much to rent a room in the castle?
If a clan tries to attack your base from the top, you could use those mistakes on the tower of stairs as chokepoints to try and stop them.
Drae. Build a massive wall that no one can pass. Across the whole map.
And tax each citizen to pay for it..... we're on to something...
HorridGosling god damn illegals
+Draegast the issue you are having when placing the stairs happens because you are using third person view. Also, when you get the error on placing build pieces happens because the server is not replying fast enough.

hey draegast......when you gather stone use the stone pickaxe and use the metal one for iron and coal and stuff because its not worth the recources you got to make the metal one when you can get just as much with the stone👍👌
whatch out for the open wall in your castle, riders can make stairs to enter. I dont have the game so not sure, but possible.
I like the building videos :)
also the game looks amazin despite the bugs
Drae, i advice you to build your "sight spot" some walls in the roof, so it looks nicer outside
The last set of stairs were fine looking, it just consumed so much resources
18:26 That awkward moment Draegast forgot to cut out some footage of him not talking.
lol yeah it was awkward but in another comment with some dude he said it was like a 4 hour video, lots of editing :p
Have you thought about using foundations for the wall?
i love this chanel. Draegast your the best😉
love your vids man :)
you should've turned it into a balcony that wraps around the house i think that that would look nice.
i like this spiral stairs much better, also it is smart to put multiple doors so if someone try to brak it would be harder and maybe he will give up, lots of people got raided i heard. also if you leave your guild i saw you cant use your house anymore because it will belong to your guild
I think you should put back the walls you disassembled up the fences, on the outlook workshop thingy. This looks greater.
I love how Dreagast doesn't spam ads on his viewers and puts just enough to make profit but not be spam.
P.s. Nice castle Drea
18:17 build a wall there, u can do wall from foundations to
Im pretty sure the reason you're having problems placing the stairs is because of the rotation of the foundations, similar to the problem you had with having to rotate the platforms for some reason the foundation isn't the same on all sides so you should place the foundations as you go rotating them until the stains like it instead of placing them all at once.

and where you put thw lookout in the corner can you please put a pillar on the corner so it looks like support it just bugs me seeing the wall just hand there
36:00 Vernon Roche, is that you?
when it says "failed to place" you can usually use scroll to flip it and then flip it back and it will work. weird but it works.
I love the series and the builds
I really like your castle, it don't think that its ugly!
Wentylator when he opened up that wall i wanted to shut off the video, he could,ve atleast opened it one wall up not two.
Nice gameplay! I like it alot!
you need to do some floor on the side to make a diving board so all you need to do is run and jump to get some water instead of losing some health
I think your castle looks fabulaus
Hahah Drae - you like my water bridge? I made that a couple days ago lol
Gamer Dad Don't know why but I don't believe you
lol ok. Well, I don't really know how to prove it or feel the need to haha
Gamer Dad Sorry if I offended you or something but it's the internet so you know.
oh, lol no offense taken at all bud.
enjoying yr built so far.. keep it going..XD
Just a heads up foundations need to be lower to the ground two people can go through them so easily then they can jump on friends head and get in (they can crawl under)
I love this series so much!!!!
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!
I think it would look bad ass if you used spiral staircases to make lookout towers to the corners of the base to look like a true castle! I also think it would be cool if you called it "Thunder-dome Keep"
I think it would be better to start a new tower on the lower cliff, ideally after you expand your foundations across said cliff. Also, try putting a door at the top of the staircase that separates the inside from the roof.
fav youtuber
Drae try building on the Bridges pls!
I love your vids so much...
that I want to hug it
Add towers on corners of youre home!
Did he put a retainer in his mouth at 35:41
you can put chests next to the furnace and the workshop, i think it will look better this way
Drake you should definitely get some armour and two handed weapon you can and probably should go xp gathering to spent all points on best two handed weapon
Draegast you have to get "The Forest" it has one of the best story lines I have ever seen in an indie game. It is somewhat similar to Conan Exiles or Rust but has a strong story line setting and open world like objectives. 10/10 You have to play it.

cant wait for someone to do helms deep or minas tirith or isengard that would be awesome
your a lord of the rings fan like me😁😁😁😁😁
put fires on the edges of the big ledges on the tower will make them look better.
I love it so much when you play this game please do more! I also like we need to go deeper but I love you most of all
(No homo)
Draegast, people can still build a ladder and climb into the opening where you put the furnace. Think ya gotta patch that hole!
i think i like the build episodes the most :)
GODAMMIT DRAEGAST, NOW IM ADDICTED TO THIS GAME!!!
maybe place pilars under the stairs that go to your crafting station and in the corners of your crafting station. it will be visualy more pleasing and structurally make more sense. still, nice progress
I love this Conan series!!!
