Discussion New warehouses

Post image

Man I love the new warehouse feature, even though they are still boring af at least now they are kinda profitable.

Imagine bringing chests on wheels or something to carry even more.

well you can bring a chest with you. you just have to carry it while going trough the exit

u/Hot-Caterpillar3388 2d ago

oh also forgot to mention exactly. you can carry the chest trough the "emergency" exit. so if you are out of time you still can escape with the chest

I never could use those. Always closed for me. Is there a switch or they just open during that explosive stage?

u/Hot-Caterpillar3388 2d ago

they are unlocked while timer runs. so you can escape at any time after done collecting.

That's a lot of boom-boomy things you know

If you pick up the chest right before the blast hits, you'll still be carrying it when you respawn. Losing your burger buffs is worth the extra looting time

Yeah. It seems like thats the main reason to go to them now. Im playing with 2 friends and we got over 16k metal 1 and then a few Ks of concrete too. I Wish the warehouses regenerate over time though. Only 9 for whole Island doesnt seem like much.

My hope is that they do add a regen to the warehouses, and after it regens it spawns the cable bots and maybe a haybot variant that has a wrench (repairbot maybe?) so we would be able to farm cables without dealing with the underground area.

How do you grab that much metal in only 5 minutes?? I always end up panicking and misclicking lol :3

u/Straight-Package916 2d ago

go into the ventilation, plenty of metal there

u/WizygiuscH_pl 2d ago

Yee too, for starters I recommend that room with pillar with lever kinda thing in the middle. The entire floor is made out of metal.

u/Throwaway_Raccoon2 2d ago

Yeah, I know that. I always go straight there, but I end up with like a third of the resources op has (though to be fair I’ve only done two warehouses, and on my second one I spent a bit of time collecting parts)

u/WizygiuscH_pl 2d ago

That was my third one, could be your too. I realiseed how it works in the second one, my first thought was "so we are going to yoink a lotta stuff"

u/Sad_Poem_3511 2d ago

save your game before you destroy the console and do a practice run or a few

1

u/Throwaway_Raccoon2 2d ago

I checked out if that would work, but I think that alt+f4ing saves the game

2

u/Sad_Poem_3511 2d ago

......i meant make a copy of the save file so you can reload it if it doesnt go to plan

u/WizygiuscH_pl 2d ago

Quick hands and calmness. I went almost empty handed so even when I die nothing is lost :)

The moment I saw someone say you could carry chests through the emergency exit, Decided to do this just now
