Unveiling the Switchback's Horde Base Evolution - 7 Days to Die
Block by block tutorial on my starter horde base the Switchback. In this tutorial I'll walk through the materials and how to evolve this over Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, and Day 28+ all the way up to surviving a 912 gamestage horde battle.

I appreciate all of this the base stood amazingly strong on my day 35 horde. My question though is there anyway way to incorporate the exact same base in a two player build and not sacrifice stability

Firstly, thanks for a great video for someone just beginning the journey into 7dtd! Now, the question. I've built an exact copy of your base, but i seem to be having some issues with zombie pathing. It's 11 blocks tall, with 10 spikes on the center column. I've only upgraded the entrance where i fight them to cement, and all of my lower part of the base is steel. Yet, somehow there seem to only be around a third of them climbing the stairs, while most keep hitting the steelpart on the groundlevel? Most of the ground level is cement as foundation whilst the pillars are all the first 2 levels with steel. Been trying to figure this out, but i can't seem to find a solution :/ You happen to know of one?
Huge props for the effort you put into your base builds (and tutorials)! Inspiring!

Firstly, thank you for the massive effort you put into this! It was well worth the wait! 💝 As far as single video or separate for the stages, there's pros and cons to each. I will personally be fully content with whichever works out better for you. The individual videos would give us the early version sooner (which is nice), but I also like knowing how the build will need to evolve later even as I'm building the Day 7 base. Also, listing the materials needed... 👍👍👍 Now I know how much to collect before I start, so I don't have to stop in the middle of building! ❤(I hate running out of materials in the middle of building.)

Amazing video. So well done. My only tiny gripe is the unrealistic idea in 1.0 that you can get all these materials by day 28. Steel now takes lvl 60 in workbenches. So unless I am missing something here, good luck getting these crafting stations and resources in time.

@@WaywardEko It has definitely helped me out. I was excited to see how you were going to do the pit and the design for it is really nice. Keep up the great work on both the streams and the building tutorials!
We built this out of cobblestone for our day 35 hoard and at first it was working really well, they would drop into the pit where we had a bunch of spikes. But then the zombies started attacking the stair supports for some reason, we had only made single pillar stair supports because we didn't think they would bother with that. After the stair collapsed they started attacking the main base supports and we had to abandon the base or it would get destroyed. I'll try with heavier stair support this time. When it works it works really well.

I'm not exactly sure about the specifics, but I'm pretty sure the zombies are being triggered into rage mode when they fall. I think it's 13 blocks to avoid it completely, 11 blocks if they don't hit anything on their way down. But they love to clump up and fall on each other's heads, falling only 9 blocks of height since they landed on a zombie, I imagine spike traps would reduce their fall distance too. So I think it's a good idea to have a 13 block gap just to have some headroom for these situations, if you don't wanna build higher you can dig a pit 2 blocks deep all around the zombie path, make sure they have an easy way back to the path though
Instant sub for this video. Live the design and so well put together !

There's always ways to improve!! I look forward to seeing other's takes on this that will move it to the next level!
That is a pretty cool and good looking base. Having the zombies have to run on switchbacks is a good way to keep them from entering rage mode. It doesn't immediately activate upon a fall. There is a timer. If you can make them run about for a bit, the timer runs out. I made a simple pill box on stilts base that forces the zombies to run at me with a narrow walkway. This causes many of them to fall down from a traffic jam and allows for a nice rifle build to abuse it. The penetrater perk with AP rounds makes it especially deadly. It also allows for one or two teammates to join in on the fun. Later on, with enough points in traps and wiring, I fill the floor with blade traps all around. The traps kill their rage mode as they take new damage and softens them up with extra damage before they can run back up the ramps to the narrow walkway to get to the pill box.

Been using your base design with a few minor tweaks since 1.0 came to console. Works pretty dang good, but playing with 1 or more friends most of the time and trying to modify it for ranged positions and robotic turret placements.
Eko, I love your videos. Loads of design work and effort have gone into them. You take your time and explain them so well. Have you thought about using bottom plates at ground level and top plates at face level for your structural supports? If gives the zoms less to hit and you can walk through the space, as well.

Some things to improve: 1) make it min 11 block high so they don't go into rage mode when falling (preferrably 13 to be safe when double stacking), 2) use pole then door, so they don't stack side by side at melee point, 3) use spiral stairs to save blocks and space rather than ladders or long stairs. Looks cool though! I'll try a variant some day when V1.0 is officially released.
@WaywardEko
Ай бұрын
It is 11 blocks high :) and more after you add the pit. Pole is a single point of failure - the combo cube + 2 narrow tips allows for redundancy. Spiral staircases would absolutely be a viable choice!
Because zombies can fall on top of one another, you should always have a safety margin of at least 2 blocks and build the area you're standing on at least 13 blocks higher than the ground the zombies are falling on.

Just used this for my day 7 horde and plan on upgrading ut to the day 14 one. Worked great but had a couple close calls because zombies decided to crawl on each other and block the door. Also the broke the double pole and valister while i was dealing with a zombie that got in. So if your doing insane 64 count hopefully you get some cement mix or you get lucky with ammo drops pre horde. Otherwise keep that door open?closed? and shoot them with arrows as they fall down.
@WaywardEko
Ай бұрын
Opening the door can be tricky when they stack up but usually you can get an opening. You could technically leave the door open all horde and they will keep trying without going into rage mode. Yeah - I tested on Survivalist ... so on Insane you'll have more stack up dealing with the crazy HP numbers.

Thank you so much!!! Enjoy!
Gonna try this in my new game I just started and looking forward to it. Something to consider for the next version are dart traps.

You could put some in the pit, but you wouldn't be able to reload during horde. Dart traps are hard because they only fire in a direct path.

@@WaywardEko Haven't look closely yet but maybe the top fence post could be replaced with two dart traps, one on each side (in the 7 day+ version).

Awesome, very clear tutorial! Only issue I'm having is I'm not finding books fast enough to be able to create things like tripwire hooks on day 14 (idk if this is late, I'm new to the game 😂)

I would keep checking traders and buy the electrical parts you need. That's what I did in my playthrough.

Great video thx a lot. I tried it out and it works gorgeous. I am wondering if there is from your point of view any possible idea to add some swing plates on the base as well……

Do you mean just additional plate reinforcements? Not sure what you mean by swing plates.

@@WaywardEko sorry my bad. I mean blade traps.
Outstanding build, I appreciate the clear easy to follow instructions! I have a question; we have 7 survivors & an unholy blood moon spawn rate. Any suggestions for scaling up the base to compensate? I believe zombies are still attacking the back pillars because the main path is simply too full; I was going to widen the stairs and main path slightly (?) Thank you again 😊

One trick you could do is to widen the base and replicate a set of stairs on the opposite side ... or even on two other sides if you wanted. I've done this in a bunch of my bases.

I am currently using this base. It is working wonderfully. Do you have an area for water and farming?

When I used it I made a small farm on the ground floor next to the base ... just toss a small fence around it and the zeds will ignore it.
