No Zombie will get to you - 7 Days to Die v1.0

This base slows down the horde so much that they spend the entire horde night just trying to get to you - no loops, no traps!

7 Days to Die is a survival horror video game set in a post-apocalyptic world where players must scavenge for resources, build shelters, and defend themselves against hordes of zombies. The game takes place in a randomly generated world and features a day-night cycle, with the zombies becoming more aggressive and difficult to deal with at night.

Players must also manage their hunger and thirst levels, as well as avoid other environmental hazards such as extreme temperatures and wildlife. The game can be played alone or with others in multiplayer mode. It was developed by The Fun Pimps and released in 2013 for Microsoft Windows and later for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Linux.

This is by far the most ridiculous horde base I've ever seen. And I love it. It was funny. It wasn't useless – we learned a little about zombie pathing. This knowledge always helps in whatever base we build.

[RyllenKriel]

I can just imagine a multiplayer game.

Friends: "Hey can we crash at your horde base?"

Pancake: "Sure, it's in the desert."

Friends: "Can you share a map marker?"

Pancake: "Dont need one, you'll see it easily enough."

I like that every time I watch a new 7DTD video after a long break, the zombies have gained another superpower to keep certain tactics from working on them. Early on they magically became immune to fall damage because of pit/spike bases.

Q*Bert meets Night of the Living Dead.

That base is a HUGE amount of work, well done Professor Pancake !

Using ladders as flooring really, really messes with them. They can't decide if they should walk or climb and they take forever.

[Lucas.Blevins]

I have never played this, probably never will. Never watched a video about it. But your commentary is incredible, I just couldn’t stop watching

[PJF]

Watching those long lines of flailing zombies reminded me of the Amiga classic, Lemmings. No idea why but it did. Epic work from you again. The moral victory goes to Boe, the speed runner who found a hack gets no credit.

[matthewhahn]

interesting idea, beating horde night by running out the clock. Maybe do some testing with low clearance sections where they have to crouch/crawl through and see if that affects their speed. You could also add some sections of barbed wire to slow them down further and allow you to condense the footprint of the structure.

Your patience for such things is AMAZING. I play for the cathartic effect of blasting the Zs away. Thanks for another amazing build.

[superezbz]

Not only did you build that ridiculous base, but you PAINTED the whole thing too!!! 🤣🤣🤣
You're too much brother! Well done! It got me to watch the whole thing!

[Orodreth]

Yes, the jumping over one block thing slows then down quite a lot. I make regular use of that to funnel them for maximum grinding performance with Sledge Turrets. The only weak point is the first block so it is necessary to give them more than one access so they do not start attacking the base blocks. After that it's usually very simple.

[NickRoman]

Never thought of doing that. Great concept. You could also call this a zombie racer.

[leenomedal-lafon]

Building that was a real commitment to science... Always nice to see you figure things out for us. :)

[RageyRage]

What if you spawned a bunch of snakes to climb up your ladders? Pun intended.

[crazistuff]

Zombie defeated through attrition, wearing out the bloodmoon buff.
Very cool, what's next the base that forces zombies to beat themselves?
Either way bravo sir, a feat and a great video.

[The_mind_of_Mitch]

You've made a zombie amusement park and I'm all for it 😂 this was great!!

[dannyeeltink]

Hugo kudo's for your efforts (again) with testing this; massive amount of work!

[judyhopps]

Zombie - "Well Cautious Pancake, I made it... despite your directions"
Cautious Pancake - "Ah, Super Intendent Cannibal. I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon."

[jameshawryluk]

Beautiful build, as usual, CP. You constantly inspire me to create new bases in our favourite zombie sim : )
