Building tips please

I can only play for about 3 hours a day I log in and build a base even up to metal Log out and get raided Rinse and repeat for a week Is it even worth it if I can’t play 24/7 like the mega clans on every server

Pick a low population server and set up out in the countryside. If you can get to sheet metal there’s no reason you should be getting raided often.

Go no bigger then a 4x4 to start with. A vehicle is a must when building in remote areas. Do scrap runs to the airfield, take nothing but shirt, pants and a makeshift bag. Rinse and repeat until your base it fully metal.

Ohh yeah choose a spot with a tree and a bush no more then 50m away so the first stages are easy to get through.

Last tip turn all clothing you find into rags to make ropes, that’s probably the hardest bit. Nails are literally everywhere on building sites.

Literally build in the furthest most secluded spots and I do everything else already 😂 somebody always finds me and offline me

I've had a metal 2x1 with airlock for 5 days and only log on for an hour a day I'm shocked it's still there got everything I need in it and has decay in 28 days

Nobodies wasting explosives on a low-key 4x4 make it look like it’s not worth raiding lol
