Grounded: The BEST Bases You'll Ever See (Maybe)

building is a big part of grounded check the ground and reddit right now and you'll see dozens of posts of people sharing their amazing builds for me not being the most creative or artistic person building has mostly been focused on functionality and grounded and many other games i do try to make my builds look nice while also serving their purpose but i know i have a long ways to go before i can be considered a master builder today the road to becoming a master builder begins and it starts with your help in this video i'll be showing you my best base build so far and i want you to give me your honest opinion of them and how you would make them even better before we begin if you want to share your best base builds you can do so on my discord in the ground at base builds channel there's a link for the discord down in the description let's get started so every build you're going to see in this video today was done in survival now these aren't all the builds i've done but these are just the ones that i felt like sharings i thought they were the best ones so first off we're going to start off in the original survival world that i played this is the one we started back i think around april of last year where i was playing call with my kids when we picked the game back up after having not played it since launch and after having done all the content leading up to the screaming doom update we were looking for something to do so we decided to build a museum where it housed every item that was in the game up to that point now we haven't finished it or we haven't upgraded it since then but it does have everything up to that point and it did take quite a long time i think this took a couple of actual like weeks of real time to build this so we're just gonna head in here real quick and take a tour and basically we have here in this lobby area is we have some stuffed insects we have some of the armors on the armor dummies we have lots of pictures because there's tons of pictures that were in the game at the time as well some wall mounts when we head over here to the right wing we're going to see more of the pictures and the rest of the armor as well as more of the wall mounts and the other stuffed insects they're all down here on the first floor like i said this was everything up until the shroom of doom update i don't think we added anything after this doom update i could be mistaken but i can't remember exactly because it's been so long since we played in this world quickly heading upstairs you're gonna we're gonna see the rest of the pictures that were available at the time we do have a little bedroom that's hidden over here so it does house the bed got a basket here with some resources that couldn't be displayed and then we also have up on the walls we have all the weapons and tools on wall mounts so that's that inside of here this is the main building now out back real quick what we did was we built this little seating area here with a restaurant so this has all the cooking stuff so let's fly down here real quick got ourselves a jerky rack over here all the tables and chairs over here and then back here we have a little cooking area which is going to have the rest of the stuff i think there's a smoothie station so we got the smoothie station the roasting spit everything back here and then last but not least we're going to have over here to the right side we had all the other stuff that was that was in the game at the time such as zip lines the bounce webs and stuff like that so let's take a quick look at that so over here we got the basketball hoop we got some zip lines kind of like a little playground area and then there is a bounce weber there was a bounce web somewhere i don't know where i put it maybe it's up top as i was doing some testing up here as you can see there's some random stuff built up here that i was testing there's a there was a bounce swept somewhere so we have a little clubhouse up here and then of course we have the zipline so that's the museum that's going to be the first thing we've looked at and like i said this took probably the longest of everything i built this probably took the longest even with three of us we legitimately carried like all the weed stems we cleared all these wheat stums brought them over here we were going to cross the pond to bring them over here as you can see we ended up building a bridge we had zip lines i did use lots of zip lines in this world because we were using them for transporting our resources back and forth so anyway that's the museum 1.0 i am currently working on museum 2.0 in my new survival world so i'll be streaming that later this week or actually probably the same night this is going live and i plan on streaming that at least once a week until the next update building that museum out so if you want to check out live building action and give me some tips of your own you could do so there the second house that's on this survival roll and this is going to be the last one i show you on this actual sewer world is going to be my pond wood cabin here that i built so i surrounded the entire thing with the palisade fence and gates here so that nothing could get in honestly nothing really comes down this way this is actually in a pretty safe spot we're over here by the net other than having mosquitoes down there and some mosquitoes down there by the wood this is a pretty safe spot i think really infrequently a wolf spider might wander all the way over here but it usually doesn't happen because there's a bunch of stink bugs over here in the grass and it usually doesn't get through all those but that could occasionally happen but i put the fence up anyway so real quick i tore the outside of this thing and i tried to make it look as detailed as possible by putting the windows up top here that we're sticking out as well as the overhang awning so we got the pet house over here so i must have actually made this after the sherman doom update because there is the pet house here i did make this one after the stream and demo day we just didn't update the museum we got a deck out here that overlooks the water and then we have our table here with some a water collector over here heading on inside we're gonna have a seating area we have a dining room here we've got a table sitting area right here kitchen over here we've got a couple wall mounts in here nothing fancy just something to spice the room up we've got the cooking area here with the smoothie station and of course the roasting another roasting spit right here upstairs we have ourselves a little sewing area here so we got the spinning wheel in this area we've got our work bench over here and then we have a little sitting area here where you can overlook the pond from up top here and then back in the back i have a bedroom with some storage area and then a sitting area where you can overlook this part of the yard so this room actually lets you see pretty much everything up here and you can overlook the pond like i said so this is the this is one i put i didn't put a ton of time in this but it did take a while to get all the to get a bunch of weeds even there's a lot of weeds over here you have to cut them down a couple times to build this whole thing but i try to get as detailed as possible putting in these windows that kind of had some i don't know what the right word is uh instead of just being a flat house it has some depth to it by putting the windows up top there you can even get on top of it from the back which i can show real quick i think we can just jump up here yeah so making the windows look like this instead of just having a flat windows all the way around i thought that might have added a little bit of uh detail to it so this is my number one this is the best house i've built on this survival world so let's head on over to my new survival world where i've built a couple more houses take a look at those and then you can give me your thoughts on how to make them better as well as which one you think was the best so first up on the new survival world is going to be the castle i built under the picnic table so as you can see what i did down here was i flatten the area out by building a bunch of clay foundations i then use the stem scaffold to prop the base up i have no idea if this would actually work with building integrity on it may it may not i'm not sure but this was built before that was started so we got our little what do collector down here and the only way to get up is up here via this ladder and then here in the main area what we have is we have the four pillars with the four towers here so we'll just walk in one of them now ideally what i wanted to do is connect these but unfortunately the way the game's made right now i couldn't build a walkway between these so each one of these you can get up on top of nothing special there i think i'm not even sure if there's anything in there yeah there's no storage in any of them inside the main area here we have our spinning wheel got ourselves a grinder and oven so of course we need this to make the all these mushroom bricks that i farmed because there are tons there's actually a bunch of mushrooms i think there's a bunch of mushrooms over there somewhere by the sandbox and then we got ourselves a roasting spit some storage down here and up top is the bedroom area and we got the bed up here in the setting area nothing fancy here but this did take a decent amount of time i think this took a couple days of i built this one stream it took a couple of days to build this because honestly getting all the mushroom bricks and the pebbles and stuff like that to build the foundations took a decent amount of time and i think i did have a decent amount of crow feathers so that wasn't a big deal so that's the base here that's my castle this is the only castle that i've actually finished i do have a castle on the first survival world i showed but we didn't end up finishing it we pretty much i don't know we just kind of got halfway through and that's when we stopped playing it at the time so maybe we'll finish that at some point but this is my castle let me know what you think about that do you like how it looks it does look pretty cool at night if you're walking up till because you can see all the lanterns up here all the torches out here so that's my castle so next up on this world is going to be the base that i built in the oasis of the sandbox so as you can see it's nighttime we're just over here at night time because we don't have to deal with the sizzling effect so this is a pretty small basis right next to this little field station it's mostly protected because it's got water around it i've not seen the ant lines actually come through the water i guess they possibly can i've also never seen the wolf spider over here of course i say that it'll probably will but people have said the wolf spider can come over here i've never seen it come over here so i feel like it's pretty safe we just have a workbench a roasting spit and the lean to over here of course we got a dew collector and the water container we got some leftover weed stems here this seemed like the best place to build it because there are no antlion spawns over here there is actually a treasure spot somewhere back here i think it's right here yep it's there right now actually and it's also got water or we can put the water we're basically protected by by this right here so the water around here protects us i mean like i said i think the wolf spider can come over here but i've never actually seen it over here so anyway this is where i build here i know people have built underneath the blocks and stuff like that that are around like obviously not that one because the wolf spiders over there but there is another block as well as i've never seen anybody build on top of sand castle so maybe if you have a sand castle build let me know share it on my discord so with that said let's head on over to the next base on this survival world so next up is the main house that i use on the new survival world and it's right next to the mysterious machine originally when i started this world i just basically built up on this rock where you can see this platform over here so all i did was place everything up here and then eventually i ran out of room and i just turned this into a collection area for water we got the cooking stuff up here and then i have jerky this just keeps it so the ants can't reach it even though they're down there they go nuts you're going to see a bunch of weevils over here because i do have i just dropped some mushrooms in one of these little footprints over here and it just attracts weevil so it's free food every couple of days or whenever i need it and then basically the main house is just this little thing and i just try to make it fit in here i have the walls around it to keep ants out although they do phase through the rock here somehow so sometimes there are ants in here but it keeps most things out and then inside here basically like i said i usually go for functionality over looks but i do try to make it look as nice as possible the only reason this floor looks different is because the weed kept going through it or a piece of grass kept going through it so i put this down and it stopped it but i don't know if that would actually change or not so basically what we have here is and i kind of like i'd love for suggestions on how to make this look nicer because honestly i just feel like it's empty here i guess i could put a table or something in the middle but it just feels like a giant open space with everything along the walls got the bed up there on this loft with some storage i think i do a food up there too as well to keep the bugs away from it down here we have the smoothie station this is where we make all of our globs as well as any mushroom bricks i need to make mostly globs so we got most of our upgrade stuff in here and actually we got we put these mitts in there that i just got from the sandbox got tons of spinning wheels over here workbench and then up top we have all the storage so and i also have armor dummies with most of the armor sets i don't think they're all up there i just as i'm making them for the burgle quest or if i'm not using them i just put them up there and then we got storage chests dedicated to everything so we got the small stuff like the mats the mites and the grubs and weevils all the way down to here's the bigger bugs and we got one just for spiders and so on and so forth all the way down and then down here at the end we have the other resources that you need as well as this stuff and then there's our weapon chest and then extra armor and stuff like that as well as tons of dandelion tufts so this is just like the main base that i use and like i said it's in the middle of the map so it's kind of the main hub where i use to go pretty much everywhere else i'm have i have one more i'm going to show you i do i was thinking about tearing this thing down and remaking it but i just haven't got around to it yet i did like the fact of where it was located because it had water around it kind of gave it a little bit of i guess character but i do think i'm going to make make some changes to it so if you have any suggestions on how to make this look cooler let me know in the comments down below or over on my discord and we do have the abomination totem over here which i did craft in this world because i have did find the crafting recipe i think when i was playing on this world was the first time i found it so let's head on over to our last base and before we wrap this video up so last but not least is my little house that i built on aphid island this is over here by the hedge and the reason it's called aphid island i don't i didn't coin the term i think somebody i'm sure other people called it this but i just started calling it too there are tons of aphids over here there's also going to be weevils and is that a mosquito hiding over there okay we're going to leave the mosquito along because we don't feel like fighting him so basically i built this here because i was doing some stuff over in the hedge i needed i wanted the house over here and the mosquito is in our face let's get in the house real quick the i wonder if he'll attack the walls so i built this little house over here because i was collecting berry leather and i just happened to come over here and i was like you know what i want to find a place where there's just lots of easy food as well as can i have a pet and this actually ended up being a perfect place to see how long you can keep a pet because an aphid or weevil will not leave this island so if you tame it over here as long as you come over and feed it periodically and pet it once in a while it will not leave and even if it does leave you you can actually just go over and find it because there's no predators over here the mosquitoes don't are not i've never seen a mosquito attack in aphid or weave i guess they could accidentally attack them there's no ladybugs over here there's no ants they can't get to it because this is all water locked all the way or it's all yeah it's surrounded by water all the way around so there's no way anything can get over here so i built this little hud over here it's got everything that you would need over here it's got the duke collector out here got the bed the workbench and everything so just a small little thing we got our little pet houses out there my pets are currently not tamed because i just haven't been over here in a long time and i honestly didn't feel like being bothered with it but this is a really great spot for collecting food also if you don't want to build over in the actual hedge i do have like a little setup over there where i have all of my spinning wheels for the web fiber you can get over there as well as the jerky racks for berry leather i do have that over there but this is just like a little outpost i have set up here i did spend a decent amount of time over here in the survival world before the new update so that's my last house so just to recap we had the museum the 1.0 museum the first one i built we had the the pond log cabin we had the picnic table mushroom castle we had the little hut in the oasis of the sand castle the main base i had on here by the mysterious machine and then this little aphid island shack that we have over here so let me know in the comments down below which one you think is best don't roast me too hard i know like when i look at other people's builds over on the reddit and other other the ones that people share to my discord there's some really creative people that build some really cool stuff and i know i'm not up to that level i'm probably won't ever be up to that level because in in terms of building i usually go for form of functionality over form so i'd rather have it be functional rather than what it looks like but i am trying to make things look cooler because i do like the fact that things that to make them look cooler and for as an example right here i did make the overhang on here you're gonna see it's a little bit glitchy if you look up here you'll actually see real close you'll see there's like a little bit of glitching i did oh make the overhang because what i would like to see honestly even though i'm not huge in the building is more building pieces like i want a roof piece that's a half for a piece the only way to get the half roof so it's got a slight overhang instead of a huge overhang is to actually have two of them on top of each other with one inside of each it so you can see it over here too we've got the little overhang over there because i think that's more what a house would actually look like rather than having this giant awning overhanging it so while i like i said i'm not the greatest builder i usually just build for form over for functionality over form i know a lot of you guys are great builders so if you have any suggestions just small tips what do you think i could do to improve just little things or major things give me the suggestions down in the comments or head over to my discord thank you for watching and thank you so much to my channel members especially the overseer 91 gray knight badge channel and all my other channel members who help make videos like this possible thanks again for watching and i will see in the next video
