This is my latest how to build video it is a basic starter base it uses early materials like wood and stone, it consists of a small house with 2 floors and a pen at the side that is large enough to hold small to medium sized dinos.

Aaron Longstaff I would enjoy these builds SO much more if there was some type of commentary instead of music
Aaron Longstaff I was hoping you would be willing to start playing Conan Exiles! It would be amazing to see what a builder like you could do in thay game
On your watchtower i have encountered a problem where at the back it wont allow me to overlap the ceilings and it says that there is no foundation support
Could u do a prim+ workshop plz
I’m having trouble getting the pillars to be centered with the foundations so the door isn’t centered, any idea how to fix that?
that looks advanced to me, i downloaded the game today and i have a 2x2x1 house made out of thatch
Hey you can only get better
This comment was posted 1 month ago, can’t wait to see how much you’ve grown. Welp I just started this weekend and I’m already working on this base. Good luck, hope you have a nice Ark Experience.
Not if you havent logged on yet today you dont.
Right. I cant even use wood never mind stone. This tuber needs to start a new name. He doesn't seem to know what starter means. It means newbie not noob
@@whitehazegruntz250 When you have farmed and crafted all the stuff needed in wood, you surely have the level for stone stuff :)
Here's a little help for farming :)
You'll need:
14.000 Wood (13.912 exact)
2.900 Stone (2.828 exact)
4.700 Thatch (4.688 excact)
3.000 Fiber (2.967 excact)
25 Flint
12 Metal
5 Metal Ingots
300 Hide
I included everything on the list (Fireplace etc.) so the resources you really need could be less or more if you're building it bigger or somehow different :)
Kielsha Edits your actually a god thank you so much
@@alexkraus2701 Anyday ^^
@ Kielsha Edits thank u.
@@brisket1244 You're welcome :)
Im to lazy to do all that
Starter base my ass this is a base that I will use all the way through the game thank you
🤣🤣
Same
reanimated 390 hahaha I know I sawn that and I was like that’s a mansion
Sal Dodd uh no we’re not talking about that, we’re talking about how the model is well atleast I am
reanimated 390 yea add some defenses and bam I’m done
Finally... after years of searching I found one.... an ark youtuber with step by step tutorials on builds. I'm so happy I could cry
Years?
Step 1 : Build the half of the house
Step 2 : Realize that you can't finish because an "Enemy Foundation or Gate nearby"
Step 3 : Restart somewhere else
Step 5 : go back to step 2..
step:6 play solo
@@sojiroumakairyu5143 step 7: gets raided
Step 8: ragequit
step 9: come back 2 years later as a pvp god
Farming tip for beginners:
I started less than 2 weeks ago myself, and I used to gather materials, bring them back, and craft them. This took ages. So now I bring a Carbonemys with me (The big tortoise (land turtle) thing) and I craft the items on the spot and use the Carbonemys to store the structure parts.
The structure parts are lighter than the raw materials, so you don't need to waste as much time walking around.
As long as the materials can be found in the wild or if they're light enough to bring with you, you can use this technique.
Great tip!
😅 same
Aaron, is it true that 90% of fan donations you receive go back into the cost of crafting pillars?
Haha yeah exactly Pillars are expensive these days!!
Probably because they are in high demand due to all the people following your tutorials 😆
I see you figured out how to get that pipe lined up with the corner of the ceiling, haha, great vid as usual.
*squints*. is that old Cpt Fatdoggie Dawg?? My fellow Cpt. Wassup brutha
Sure is, yes, I am still alive! How is going Cap?
Thanks Sherlock 🙄
That is the sexiest damn house I've ever seen on ark.
Liam West ikr
Ya no one takes there time in design a base! So sad
@@aduptuniform2647 because most play pvp and dont care about their base being ugly.
They onæy care about making it raid proof
@@khizrsuhailanwar90 But if you are a good designer you can make something raid proof and good looking at the same time :)
This is a toilet hut compared to what
me and my uncle has build in the past....
You can actually build big ass
castles in ARK, believe it or not xD....
If you call this a starter house what do you call a mansion
Only the beginning...
Sal Dodd that’s a pve HOUSE key word house. Go to a pvp server (official) and you’ll find huge pvp bases. They get to be 20x20 foundations. The biggest base I have had is 10x10 on ragnarok with a 200 foundation court yard
a mansion...
I call it "A Hunter's Home".
Mansion is house with one million tek things XD
I just started ark, and this is by far the most dummy proof build guide I've seen. Amazing use of bullets in the video. Also, the music is so great I watched it twice. Great content friend. Keep up the hard word.
Just so everyone knows, if you're building on uneven ground, be sure to use pillars and ceilings instead of foundations!
This comment is hella underrated
@@DaeGame101 literally. Ives been struggling so much 🤣
Wish I read this before finishing till the end where I’m now stuck cuz of the uneven floor lol
But how would that work wouldn’t it mean your base would float. I’m struggling to find a good place to build but I can’t
Start with a foundation on the highest point. When the ground gets too low, continue with floors and put columns underneath as you go
Thanks for posting this, it's a beautiful and newbie friendly design. I used this design for the most part, I made the back yard a little bigger and instead of wooden fencing I used metal. And I used a bit more stone for the house so that raptors and the normal beach trash wouldn't be able to hurt it too much.
Its nearly impossible to find a terrain that is enough flat
I was having the same problem but in the video description it shows the coordinates of where it was built
Try any spot on crystal isles or the island reagnarok is good to and anywhere that is a little flat lol
U can find a really good flat terrain in valguero beach or in the lake
the oasis near the top right of the map is going to be your best bey
Use the cords of the map
Coincidently i was building there too and i didn’t realized this
What a succinct and enjoyable video! This is honestly the exact type of video I want to see when I search "base building" on TH-cam. This guy isn't talking for 10 minutes straight about how cool he thinks he is, his video isn't riddled with dumb sound effects and memes, and it's extremely concise and pleasurable to watch. Thank you!
I made this one as my first ever build of yours!! Keep in mind I am not builder friendly at all but I nailed it!! This is honestly the first non box crap base I have ever built. It was so easy to follow. I only had a small issue with getting all the fences looking right when attaching them to the stone pillars but I figured it out. I am so proud of myself! Thank you for helping make it happen! Now time to explore more with my new found confidence in building!!
Love the way you add the correct dimensions, makes for a perfect build.
Love it, thanks for sharing. It's nice to see simpler builds from you. Some of the other builds are pretty expensive to build if you play solo on a official server, the best one can do is learn techniques you use in building them.
This design is beautiful and I sued it in my single player world just now. Thanks for all of the effort that went into making this.
Thank you for a great tutorial! It is very nice you show at the beginning how many building items you will need and that you show the names of the building items when placing them. I’ll definitely try this out!
This is a great video and I had a lot of fun following along and building the house. Though I must admit I had a tough time finding a flat area on the Island. But, I did and only had to make minor changes. Thank you very much!
I’ve fallen in love with your tutorials. They’re very well explained and executed throughout the video, so it’s easy to understand, and I applaud you for that. Most people when they’re doing tutorials speed through and don’t explain well, therefor I mess up certain things or have to continuously rewind and listen again to catch their instructions clearly. Yours is simple, straight to the point, and clean. I’ll most likely use this base throughout my entire game instead of it being my “starter” base haha. Again, love how clean and rustic the base looks, it’s pleasing to the eye from how generally organized it is and how the textures compliment each other perfectly. The music isn’t annoying, the edits/transitions are comprehendible and not all over the place, and you don’t have an obnoxious voice over (not saying voice overs are bad; just saying some people are loud and annoying when they do voice overs).
I definitely subscribed.
Just got back on after a couple years and all I have to say is thank you for the inspiration of making my new home.
This is really pretty and rly good editing, honestly one of the most informative base building videos out there
Thank you for sharing these. They're really well done and very easy to follow. I usually follow this these builds step by step, then i change some things here ans there. Otherwise my maps are littered with your builds qnd they look outstanding!
damn, you deserved a like for the effort, thanks man and keep it up!
Just wanted to thank you for the awesome video. It was just what I needed as a building noobie. You made the build eassy and painless and it looks great thank you so much I hope I see a lot more of these on all the other maps as well.
My husband and I play ark religiously. And I took the time to gather and build this base and it came out perfectly. Thanks for the content. Will be coming to this channel very often for more great ideaa
In this context, “start” means your first actual base. sure, you’ll have a small hut you’ll be working out of, but when you’re ready to start making a dino army, and start getting into the more technical stuff, then this is a good first starter base.
Saddly this wouldn't work in Pvp, still a very nice design
Fishfan 2 yes it would. Just build it out of metal.
Fishfan 2 you will need 16000 metal :)
@@brisket1244 still a terrible design
@@brisket1244 no lolol
Its teribble. Everyone can destroy it. But it is beautiful design
You do a great job on explaining what you need and what to do better than most people with mics
Probably the most relevant base design I've seen , man keep up the amazing work
This guy makes it look so flawless, meanwhile I’m struggling to align my stuff properly lmfao
Finally, a decent looking build I can actually make in ark Mobile since it doesn't use any PC/console exclusive structures from what I can see (like double doors and stuff), thank you
Dude I thought having a nice thatch hut on the beach overlooking a sunset would ever be the best I would be at making starter bases thank you.
I have bin watching your videos for a little while now and I just want to say. DAMN! These builds are exactly what I am looking for to create a RPG feeling in the best Survival game I ever played. Well done and please continu doing stuff like this cause we all love it! 😁👍
Yeah! Was waiting for it! You are awesome man.
Cheers Blobfish!
Video: 15 minutes minutes
Me: 3 hours
#Facts
3 hours? I'm going on 5 or 6 lol. I ran into a problem with adding the ramp at 9:57 though. Trying to find a workaround :(
@@BonJoviFan13 i have the same problem did you find a solution because i cant snap it
@@manasafootball472 I have not. I think I just altered it a bit to my liking and what I could manage to get it to do. It’s been a minute since I played and just recently deleted my save (I ran into a Dino that slaughtered all of mine.....I cried for an hour lol)
@@BonJoviFan13 try placing wooden stairs instead then you can convert the stairs to a ramp afterwards using the pinwheel menu.
Base is great, editing is amazing. Even included console controls, very much helpful!
Ok this tutorial is actually amazing!! It is perfect in every way! You should be proud!!
I can’t believe you would call this a starter base, it amazing!
I know I'm late but thank you! This was really helpful and I appreciate it. I've been practicing and watching these videos has gotten me a little further.
You think your late? 🤣
@@erikashearer319 this was almost a year ago so I'm a little earlier than you, pal.
@@silasznh5999 fair enough
I really like how you show step by step on how you build your stuff. Thanks for that
Lobe this base design!!! Currently trying to build it myself. Thanks for the how to!!!
It's arrived! Thanks!
These tutorials are the best it tells you exactly what to do
Thank you!!!
Honestly the best house tutorial I've seen on TH-cam yet
Beautiful home made some tweaks cause the area im in but came out amazing thank you and hope to see other dope homes
Also great way of explaining the layout perfectly well done man 100 out of 10 😁
2019 viewer here. Just gotta say, love these builds a hella lot. All the stuff needed to craft this base took me over 4 hours! Even with a Theri and Ankylo. STILL WORT IT!
That's half of the fun, isn't it? At least for me, when I make it a mission to make something and gather resources...you feel happier being closer to your goal without cheating =)
I have to give this one to you Aaron, you are definitely the most skilled builder in ark
Thanks man! Now I have the nicest looking base in the southwest corner of the map!
Succeeded in building a variation of this building thanks for the advice I’ll probably be building similar houses from now on
you deserve a lot more subscribers for everything you do 😊😁
Why thank you Losiane the Subs are going up every day so I can't grumble to much!
In fact what I mean is that I really love everything you do as a build in ARK and you really get a lot more subscribers for it.
Can you maybe build a New nice medium house?
I will add it to the list
Yea that would be awesome
Can’t express how great this house is
Recently found your channel.
Fell in love with your design's.
Your Basic starter base is locked to memory, and is my got to when starting a new game.
Have added a few touches of my own, extended the pen, added a garden plot and tech area, in keeping with the design.
Your guides are easy to follow, and have used some of your techniques in my own designs.
Am currently following your tree house guide on Ragnarok, it looks Amazing, again with some of my own little extras.
Keep going strong, keep building.
Is it possible for you to do a cave base design?
Would be very interested to see that.
Loving the channel, keep going strong.
Hey Aaron!
Just wanna let u know, ur definition of a “starter” base is different than mine lol
This is something I’m going to use for, well, probably forever in my single player world
Thanks a lot! Keep up the great work
Nice finaly i want to try building it i watched it on livestream tho 😎
3.
Dude! I ABSOLUTELY love it!!!! This is kickass man!!!
This is absolutely gorgeous!! Will definitely try and build this.
Got Ark on the Xbox Black Friday sale, and I can't wait to play tomorrow! Im probaly most likely going to build this base!
if you are gonna build this base do it in pve cause pepole are dicks they will wipe you if you are on pvp
@@exazee9900 Oh yea, my clanmates and i started out on this official server and we didn't even have a base, just a small square house and someone destroyed it with a wyvern that they brought into the island from Scortched Earth!
Jackie Varughese You can’t bring dinos into Official Maps from DLC maps. They most likely brought it in from Ragnarok. Not Scorched Earth.
Just build it in anything but pvp
@@collinmackin5911
You can with scorched earth.
Nice job
Cheers Theo!
i came back to ark after near 3 years, yesterday i build your starterhome and i love it :D
Currently building this on the center on a small ridge looking over my water pen that I also built from one of your tutorials thank you for these
I can only imagine how tedious this will be without admin commands
Who's ready for Tek Raptors?
Sacredarrow9023
I already found one 2 days ago
() dwrp IT LOOKS SOOOOO COOOOOL!!!!
Rowlet04 Studios I bred two of them
I haven't seen 1 yet. Just bad luck
I got one
All my dinos in my pen are tek
Built 90% of the base tonight in my Solo island, going to finish it tomorrow.
Finding flat ground can be challenging. I was able to find a flat patch large enough for the base to fit comfortably near the shore.
Obviously, you aren't going to breed 50 T-Rex's from this setup. Which is why he calls it a starter base. However, ill probably use this base so countless hours to come. It's just fun. It's skillfully architected and well thought out. Using stone below wood is common even in modern day houses. Though usually its a cement pad with a wood house on top, it follows logic.
Thanks for the base. It will help me expand my knowledge of base designs and I'll definitely use some of these techniques in the future.
Fantastic build. One of my absolute favorites so far, thank you for your work and sharing it with us!
Thank you so much Dana!!
I built a this house in a pvp server and someone left a note saying that it was to cool to raid
Lololololololol
Ngl the house looks cosy af
Bob Ross is that you?
No it's a happy little accident
This is such a good informational video I don’t see many people making building tutorials like this
this is the best building I have ever seen in ark awesome for real
why do houses on youtube always gota be so amazing and all i builld are massive square bases with nothing but wood. dang i need more creativity in my life lol.
JoJo F hah lol same except mine aren’t massive!!
The big warehouse look is more practical and a lot easier but this is nicer looking for sure
You can build on some shallow parts of rivers. I used his as a template and made my own. I noticed I never sunk on one of the rivers, and decided a little water home would do nicely.
Yea I guess for pve but pvp this wouldn’t last long but it is very Beautiful over all
To true
This is only for pve if you want a pvp base then go somewhere else
Thanks for the simple walkthrough. I wish u made all the videos about ark. I’m going to make that base tonight!
3 years and i still come back for the visuals and the tunes. Long Live Longstaff!!!
Aaron I am trying to place my ramps but it isn’t allowing me to place is it says it’s obstructed but it is not
hey the location has changed. im at 17.8 Lat and 30.2 Lon and apparently its the jungle now,
You play on the Island ? He playing on Ragnarok
Idirius HD no im playing on Ragnarok
location is still close but his coordinates are a little off
@@bonez_playz418 Really?
@@bonez_playz418 what are the right coords now? I followed them and I'm in the ocean and confused
This is the best hous i ever seen in ark!!! BRAVO 👏
this video is pure art. LOVE IT!
My version of this is a giant metal box covered with thousands of turrets
this would get raided fast i think
My god your the best ark house designer I’ve have seen keep the great work up man
Very simple I'm subscribed and super easy to build in every tutorial no mods everything is in vanilla and could be built in every map I'd HIGHLY recommend any of his builds
Can you do the Spino Pen tutorial?? I wanna build one so much and watching three videos of two hours (approximately) is... not the fastest way
Yeah I agree it will be up soon just need to get it all recorded
Oook so right from the get go the fence foundation refuses to place on the edge of the foundation.
You need to build this on really flat land cause if the foundation is too high the fence foundation will snap at the bottom of the foundation instead of the top
Very in depth video this deserves more credit
I comment two years later to tell you I love your construction thank you it helped me
how to you make the ramps go through the ground it says “obstructed” :(
You put down stairs and then hold triangle and switch to ramp
For me I can't snap the that I roofs
Aaron I love your building videos.Your content is amazing and you don't care about money.I rarely give anyone a subscribe or a like,but when I see that a youtuber is perfect I give him everything.I love your videos too much,you are a God,Aaron!
Took me a little over 3 hours lol but it’s done!! Thanks for the very detailed tutorial
Dragons aviary please
Isaac Alcaraz, dragons? You playing with that dragon mod?
No, I want it for scorched earth or Ragnarok
Isaac Alcaraz there are no dragons in Ragnarok or scorched. Just Wyvern. Dragons look quite a bit different
Sorry I wanted to say wyvrens
Jajajaj
I can’t find a flat enough place to build the whole thing lol
well it gives you the cords
@@sin-qe5uu i am by the cords but its not the same place
Even tho you said starter base i will never change this base you are sooooo creative. And i love this base
Dude this is stunning and beautiful!
You already know a random dude with a giga is desttoying that with one hiy
I built this and got raided immediately...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shouldn't of built it on pvp then should you its clearly a pve build like most if not all of his builds
probably the best tutorial i have ever seen
Built this base out of tek, it looks sooooo good thank you so much for your creation!
