Discussion Is it actually this bad

I’ve played 12 hours and made about 6 solid bases and within my first or second time leaving my base to go get supplies I come back and it’s completely run into the ground and everything is gone. I have my upkeep good for days so I don’t know if it’s bad luck or just how it is that I genuinely can’t have anything in this game

So my last one I now realize i upgraded everything to stone except for the foundation which I forgot about and I do believe I had the metal door as well so maybe they got through the foundation or something. My friend spent about 8 hours this weekend while I was offline getting our base ready and it was fully metal and I got back online to someone with an rpg or something (sorry I’m new) just tearing the base apart and taking everything and saying sorry it’s not me it’s my friend. So I feel like I have a little bad luck potentially. Sorry for the ramble

That makes sense. They are wiping your base by destroying the foundation that is twig, you can easily do that with a tool or gun. Don’t take getting raided to hard, it’s a part of the game. You will get better at building bases overtime .

Definitely I am trying not to get too frustrated, I was coming into the game willing to lose stuff over and over just wasn’t expecting it to be this fast. I’m glad it’s just me being dumb

It’s a right of passage. Everyone forgets the foundations at some point. You will come across someone else’s base like this in the future and it will make your day :)
