I was just wondering if is possible to build walls at this stage of the game or any type of defences at this point of time? I see some official screenshots and videos where the base thats been made by a player has walls. Was that just a future update information?

Thnx in advance ;))
P.S. love the game!

Walls are in the game but atm, not available since they have been taken down to clear the bugs with them and from a road map for updates walls should be coming back in next patch.

I've made a makeshift mod that brings walls back. They have all the same bugs but they are there for use. I'd personally avoid using gates though.

walls + gates + crossbows + manned turrets = perfect base defence, wonder what the enemies will get to counter being splattered at range by bows and turrets...more numbers.. dousens (hundreds.. drool`s) instead of a handful, power armor maybe? on the premise of the cyborg implants comes to mind but then maybe my fallout/40k imagination is running wild... :)

Please god, please don't let this turn into another "power armor" "robots" and "firearms" thread. We have enough of them.

Let me make a clear point that was made by a game I played long ago. If you have the skill to block an arrow, then why take such a dangerous gamble by not using that skill to simply dodge the arrow? It is surely safer to dodge than to try to block.

Also: ViralBunny... dousens? Really? Dozens.

Walls are currently not in as many other posters have stated. However, if you're looking for a fairly defensible place to build you should find several table top plateaus near CAT on the western side of the map. They are generally between it and the trade post that is to the SE from the city.

More then a couple of nice large flat places with one scalable entrance.

What about cyborgs with fiery arms? Then all the arrows would just burn up :)

Chris has NO right to take away OUR walls and not allow us to divide the map!

tried it with the Shift F12, all i got was crashes, my squads mates now able to attack each other and my outpost being incorporated by the nearest major town. ( Brink it was actually )
was kinda funny working with it, will have to remember if i dont like one of my squad member's, i can just go to edit then out then attack my squad memeber
