Objects and Basebuilding - Wasteland Guides v3

Recommended Posts

.Scorpion    118

Once again, howdy. For the third guide in this series I will be covering movable objects and base-building. 

For the third time I would like to thank:

for assisting me in the creation of this guide. 

 

WHERE TO FIND PLACEABLES

Placeable objects can either be bought at General Stores or found at Enemy Outpost AI missions.

An Enemy Outpost and its structures, mostly walls and a couple of .50 turrets. 

However, if you want to get a more diverse set of base-building objects you'll have to go to General Stores. 

 

A COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF PLACEABLE OBJECTS

Placeables are found in the Objects tab of the General Store menu. Their names can be misleading some and there is no preview for them, so in lieu here is a list of most of the placeable objects.

ACTUALLY MAKING A BASE

With all of the boring shit out of the way, now you can go make your own base somewhere on the map. You can build anywhere except for on roads, however here are some tips when it comes to base making.

  • If you want your base to stay there for more than an hour you'll want to put it somewhere concealed. The forests east of Camp Rogain / north of Kamino Firing Range are a good place, so are many spots on the coast. 
  • Protection from attack is also vital. Having overhead cover is helpful but placing the base somewhere where no tanks or SPAAG can shoot at it also works. Again, coastal areas work well for this. 
  • Place a spawn beacon in the base. If you get killed you'll have a second attempt to counter attacks.

When you have an item in your hand several options will appear in the scroll menu. 

  • Adjust to the ground: This will adjust the angle of the object to adhere to the slope of what you're placing it on. If you were to adjust to ground while on the side of a mountain the object would be slanted at the mountain's angle.
  • Adjust horizontally: Adjusts to stay level regardless of the surface below it. 
  • Turn left/right (X / C keys): Rotates the object. Use the X and C keys to rotate.
  • Closer/further (F / R keys): Pushes or brings the object closer. Use the F and R keys to do so. 
  • Load in vehicle: If near a vehicle you can put the object in the vehicle's virtual inventory. 
  • Release: Puts down the object.
  • Lock Object (When placed) Locks the object so it doesn't despawn.

Have fun.
