35:00 We had that issue in our games as well, all the way through the beta. We ended up building a mansion base on top of one of the large rocks next to the garden area by the pond. The ants couldn't climb the rock straight up to hit our stuff, but they would congregate on the ground below our storage. We just made spike traps and they would mindlessly kill themselves trying to look at our storage lol
The ants stealing food or destroying things on their way to get the foods is kinda cool. Sure players will struggle but still that's kinda realistic for ant behavior.
Hey Glock9! I recommend building on the Lily pads by the tree if you want to avoid the ant problem! I'll just copy and paste what I told someone else... I recommend building your base on the Lily pads! Ants can't get to you-- Actually, pretty much NO bugs can get to you (Unless they are aggro, they can hop to your base). It's a really nice base spot! There are tons of grubs for food, if you want more food then just go to the garden light post thingy at night and you'll find a ton of gnats. For water, there is a juice box directly besides the main Lily pads, so just build a water storage container thingy. *Downsides:* -There are 3-4 Wolf spiders that roam the area (they can't get to your base unless they are aggro, if that's the case, just jump into the water to lose aggro). - There is grass near by, you just have to walk a bit. - There are a lot of orb weavers by the wood fences. - [REDACTED SPOILER] That's all I can really think of... *Benefits:* - Easy access to food and water. - Safety against most bugs (The fish and water creatures don't attack Lily pads). - Close to Burg.l and research stations. - Acorns = decent starter armor. - Plenty of room for safe building! Hope this helps!
@@metalrockgaming I did not have a problem with the ants putting them on the half floor.....until today....fuckers took all their eggs back lol. I guess I was just getting lucky up until then.
I had no problems with ants raiding my storages as long as there was no food in them. And when I did build a base which had storages with food in em, you put it somewhere high that ants can't reach. By that I mean on top of a twig or rock, NOT a tall building. Few things they've changed that're useful. 1)You'll need the red ant club before you can go after ladybugs and spiders. They changed things so you can't just stand above them and snipe them from afar. 2)workbench and etc can take items from storage and 3) "N" hot deposits resources to all surrounding storages with items of that type.
Your original Grounded videos are where I first started watching you, so now we've come full circle. I think the increased threat from the acorn armor is so when you're playing multiplayer the person with the heavy armor can tank and hold aggro from other players.
I haven’t seen your content in ages. I used to watch your 7 days to die gameplay religiously. Don’t really know what happened but grounded is absolutely 🔥 and glad to see your content again.
I generally make my first base on the baseball. Then later I build in the hedge, there is a nice cave that has the rotten ant club and that is where I built. Thanks for all the content Glock! One of my favorite creators 😁
Also, here is a tip, if you want, only because there is a draw back. There is a chemical fog you can stop and get rid of. But, if you do, the insects get a hell of a lot harder, on the entire map. Found that out the hard way. Thanks for the vids and entertainment!
Hey G9, You can use your peep option to place markers too I loved the first series and I'm so glad you are revisiting it, you're my favorite gaming UA-camr. Keep up the great work man!
Glad to see a return to Grounded. Looking forward to the full playthrough. The game audio is a bit too low, though, compared to your commentary audio. I can barely hear the game, especially when you're talking, and if I turn it up too loud, I get Glock9 in my ear at max volume! lol
I'm playing this game with friends and after 80hrs, still loving it. We're gearing up and improving our base and setting up zip lines and fighting the harder stuff now. There's SO much they could add to this game for DLC's and stuff, and I'm all for it. I'd gladly pay for more DLC that expands and adds to what is currently here. Ever since HISTK's, I've wanted to play a game like this, and this game def scratches that itch very well. Love it! I'll even be going back and playing the game solo on the hardest difficulty also to see all the stuff I missed when the other 3 discovered things.
Ants and storage. Consider making a minimum 3x3 floor and wall. (5x5 is a good size I find). Place workshop in center of wall. Add shelves. Cram as many large storage boxes onto shelves surrounding workbench. The workbench will pull from storage as long as resources are nearby. And for Pete’s sake, get your storage off the ground 😅. Build walls to block ants from getting under. Once your storage/workshop room is elevated, consider spike traps around this workshop/storage unit. 👍. And, by the way, wolf spiders DO patrol the machine. Careful. Looking forward to the next video! 🎉
Yes were back in the garden! I too have just got back into game so looking forward to exploring the garden with ya! One Piece of advice for ya there's a big stone next to the machine you can build your base on top of there and that will stop pesky ants out of your chests ( i would advise getting some clay and getting the foundation blueprint) also the slippers give extra speed good for hit and run exploring, any way have fun cannot wait till next friday!! :)
If anyone is looking for an easy source of food grab some mushrooms. Throw them on the ground and just wait a bit. The weevels are attracted to the mushrooms and will just keep coming. Once they start showing up its really easy to grab lots of their meat and if you dont want them anymore then just pick up the mushrooms
So I just found out a new tip and tried it out my self and it works! If you build the water storage unit under a juice box straw when it drops it will be collected!
Intro music reminds me of Stranger Things intro music. Glad to see you play this. I haven't touched it yet but watched lots of it. Also, I think there is a tooth in the base where you found the raw science in the biometric room where you pick up science. Its hidden in a dark corner. Helps with mutations I think. Needs a hammer to break it down so you can get at the shiny core.
im SO glad this series is here! youre what got me into grounded wayyyy back in prerelease, and im so glad youre making a series now that the game is fully out!!!!
Ohh I've been playing this game since early beta! I would LOVE to see a Glock series on it but I don't want to spoil the full version. So... GL, I will come by just to upvote, and watch it after I am done =). Have fun!
I don't know if anybody said it, but the fifth body is Mr bones. There is a glitch where you can die and respawn as Mr bones, Mr Bones has infinite health and cannot die, but he also has some drawbacks.
If you build up on the baseball, ants can’t get your food. Also, if you build a water container under the juice box straws, it will collect juice for you.
To combat the problem of ants you need a bace on something they can not climb or destroy so you can have a good chance to not lose your food but you may get a mosquito problem depending upon your place your bace is
I’m sure you know but if you don’t, there is a tape recording (the ones you collect) in the center part of the mysterious machine. Also great content love this game so much and can’t wait to see the future content for this game. (Yes I know they literally just updated the game like a a week ago😅)
yo Glock! in my playthrough, i built my first base on top of the baseball. no ants ever could get up there. something to think about. Cheers from Killadelphia!
For building, you don't actually have to have the grass in hand. You just hit craft and you can place building pieces. Once you place your piece, you can then add any materials it requires.
Coincidence that Dr. Tully was the name of the scientist who made the shrink ray and Rick Moranis' character named Louis Tully in Ghostbusters? I think not. And frankly, you can mess up the aphids as much as you want. They're a pain in the butt. Also, aphid honeydew is aphid poos. I learned a bit about them in my greenhouse pests class. So that was funny to see as a material.

glock 9 knows what he is doing but good suggestion.
If you put the chests on a half floor, the ants can't reach them.
@@tomchan0 then they will just hit the base until things spill out. he did mention that.
@@metalrockgaming I did not have a problem with the ants putting them on the half floor.....until today....fuckers took all their eggs back lol. I guess I was just getting lucky up until then.
told you :p or do to it properly told you so told you so told you so im just kidding that sux still bud.
About the grass, I'd heard the opposite - that knocking out the roots *prevented* them from respawning.
Correct. Knocking out the Stubbs stops the regrowth. I’ve not had any regrow for the last 5/6 updates of knocking them out :)
Yay. A game my kids and I can play. As long as no naked Zombies show up!
Love the longer episode length. Im hoping this series goes on for a while and does well for your channel.

The threat generation from the acorn armor is a multiplayer thing. Basically makes you the tank.
This is great to know, tysm
loving the new series! it's great to see you expand and try new games
"Im Kevin Spacey-ing this backyard". Liked lol

I always built a base on top of the baseball not sure if you can still do that but didn’t have to worry about bugs messing with my storage
The cave with the mites and the blocked off passage has quartz and a burgl chip. And I love you.
I haven’t seen your content in ages. I used to watch your 7 days to die gameplay religiously. Don’t really know what happened but grounded is absolutely 🔥 and glad to see your content again.
Another one of those games where I struggle playing solo, feel overwhelmed, but watching and learning from you makes me want to buy the game

The vice on the workbench is made of ant mandibles... this game is so ****ing cool.

Got bored & did the same on like day 120 of my play through. Infected wolf spiders are no joke lol.
Hey G9, You can use your peep option to place markers too
I loved the first series and I'm so glad you are revisiting it, you're my favorite gaming UA-camr. Keep up the great work man!
Using a Glock to kill bugs is some Florida-Man style pest control. Love it.

Me: I love ya man but yes....yes I can.
Glock9 has one of the best communities on UA-cam hands down.
Aphid slippers make you quick as hell. Definitely a speed boost.

Awesome quote
Chopping down the grass stems keeps the grass from respawning, not letting it regrow.
Lots of useful pointers here. For a new player such as myself. Thanks.
Awesome start to a new series! I wasn't familiar with Grounded before this and am liking it!
Thanks!

Nice facts of life reference
Awesome, glad to see you throw down on this, I've had it installed for months and have just been waiting... Solid
Hey man love your content. Thank you for all the years of you posting.
Threat generation is actually really nice in coop. While you tank, your more squishy friends can take out bugs from afar with a bow.

Always find it weird when people call fireflies lightning bugs. We always called box elder beetles lightning bugs growing up, due to their markings.

Please don't drink the mildew Glock!
Morning dew and mildew aren't the same
Ants will still steal from your chests but I’ve never seen them break into my house to do it
There is an ant totem you can find in game and build that will ward off ants from your area keeping them from stealing food.
For building, you don't actually have to have the grass in hand. You just hit craft and you can place building pieces. Once you place your piece, you can then add any materials it requires.
With he Aphid Slippers? They grant natural explorer, a speed boost to normal running. Excellent at all times, if you don’t use complete armor sets.
