At 32:18 if you watch closely, you can see a zombie head move behind the cliff. Due to the perspective of the game they can hide like that. Most people use the flat mode to check for zombies and hidden routes into their base.
Hey Pravus! I just stumbled by your channel - this video to be exact. I really like your commentary and I think I'll stay for a while and listen ;) Also - big fan of you playing "They are billions!" - a game of which I have played a lot of my self and I always struggled with this level. Very awesome start! Keep up the good work!
You're right about the pacing of other channels that tackle this game, and I love the you're not following suit with the jump cuts in your own They Are Billions series. Looking forward to seeing more of this for sure!
a few tips, a 10 wood spot will always be within 1 tesla tower of starting, you want it as soon as you can afford it decrepit builds that arent radars should be sold for a bonus gold stack, radars should be powered, viewed, and then sold. lastly, its good to spread out your archers when moving them, the more things you have in a pile, the more noise they make, and noise is semi exponential if memory serves
Don't worry so much about leaving room in a housing area for later buildings - at least when it comes to tents. Tents are so cheap that they pay for themselves in a few minutes. It's best to just lay them down as fast as possible and delete them when you need the space.
Pravus! You should be having your starting troops push out slowly while you build your economy to get earlier veterans! Either way loving this already!
just wanna kinda warn people that if you play TaB, i would recommend this video as an introduction to the game, but don't take it as an example of how to play -there's a lot of misinformation and too many mistakes to apply to your own play-through. Also great map generation RNG there! :) I do enjoy the vid ^^
I see the name "Pravus Gaming" and like "hm... I seen this name before". Then when I click into the video and heard your solemn voice. Oh my lord and savior please forgive me for my sin.
Post a poll to see how many people care about your commentary, cause personally I'm fine with a little bit of silence here and there as long as you're still doing actions.
I forget.... do the zombies move slower on this map? They ought to. Maps like these should have more features like zombies being unfrozen as you expand they attack and etc.
@@catfacecat. ah, never tested it, but it kinda made sense to me. in old games the function keys often were used to torn off opacity on different render layers.
He didn't anticipate not having enough of an army to deal with a wave coming from the east, and deleted his tower. Later he built a (tesla) tower to defend against a wave from the east because he didn't have enough of an army. :^)
Pravus, if you are going to make a longer series out of this you might want to look into the modding scene for the game. There are a lot of good mods already that are a bit more friendly to your stile of doing UA-cam. Even if some are similar to the base game they do start you off in interesting positions and interesting scenarios. Also 42:28 if that village of the damned was just a bit closer the soldiers in the tower could have activated it. I advise you to never ever put soldiers in towers this early on when you don't know what might hear them. Same goes for snipers but those can handle a little more. Rangers are also not as one might believe truly silent they do make noise, just not a lot. They can still attract zombies from quite a distance though, if you have enough of them shooting while standing close to each other that is. Like you did at the end of the video.
Take a shot every time a tent is built. As well as take a shot every time he talks of or about tents. ( I am not responsible for anyone who actually does this. ) Also.. You should pay more attention to what you tell your units. Your rangers took damage they did not have to and you lost some that you did not need to. Several times you basically told your units to go to the zombies say hi and try to have a cup of tea with them.
damn this starting at the map is pretty good normally u have to reroll an incredibly amount of time to get such an awesome start at the map also... wouldnt it be easier to kite the z around with one archer and let the rest shoot the zombies while 1 is just luring them in circles?
Hey I’m Alex a 800% no pause player. Try this as an early game build order as you made a few inefficiency choices. 1. Food Always first. (Notice how your food supply is cap is 4 tents worth regardless of how much gold you grab) 2. Max tents =3-0 food supply. Now due to RnG, what order you expand, build power mills as needed will change, or if any drops like wood, stone, or gold exist that simply expedites this. 3. 25 tents and 1 sawmill. (Low tech huts and expansions as needed) 4. 2nd sawmill. 5. 5 more tents, total of 30. 6. Quarry.(the 20 stone you need for Soldier center takes time) 7. Wood workshop. 8. Soldier center. 9. Build first farm and Max more tents. 10. Warehouse. (Warehouse BEFORE market) 11. Drop your market at 300 colonists as supposed to the 200 rush. Goals: 200 colonists by day 10 (I’ve done it in 6 with a tiny rng help). You want 15 rangers by day 12. Farm tech, cottages, Traps researches by day 10. Army: 25/20/70. 25 rangers. 20 soldiers. 70 snipers. IN ORDER. Engineering units rest of the way till end game.
YES!!!!!! (sorry I've been watching in the shadows...) You finally did a video on this! I've been waiting for you to start playing this! Your videos are amazing! Anyway, Have fun with the game (I have it too) and PRAISE PRAVUS!
I know i am 5 years late to say this but if you double click on everything and go to delete it, you will be presented with a "are you sure" menu before you do so
I haven't played this game but I have seen a lot of videos on it and should I be concerned about the amount of tents in close proximity to each other that could easily turn into a massive cluster of spawners if even a single zombie sneezed?
@@stylesrj I don't see how walls would help to prevent the breach of zombies that can ignore walls? Unless you mean by reducing the speed of outbreak via regular tent-spawned zombie? But then you're wasting resources,time and efficiency for the sake of a what-if scenario that would likely be a game-over anyway - especially since those extra resources/population could be used to make more troops to prevent zombies getting through in the first place.
@@Neion8 As in, you can't just make one layer of wall. The Harpy can jump over 1-tile walls. That fact alone would scare me into double-walling... or triple walling in case I'm wrong and they can jump over 2-tiles...
So walls alone do nothing. Pro players like me in fact ignore building any walls till about the 2nd wave, and the walls are absolutely minimal. The only answer against a harpy is firepower. And you can have 20 layers of walls thick and a harpy will just float over them. As to the tents. Don’t let a single zombie through is the only answer. You want tents tight and clustered to maximize economy so you can afford the firepower to win.

You said this episode might be boring. But I think it's pretty in tents.

So happy that you’re doing a series in this, Pravus! Also, hope you feel better!
Hey Pravus!
I just stumbled by your channel - this video to be exact.
I really like your commentary and I think I'll stay for a while and listen ;)
Also - big fan of you playing "They are billions!" - a game of which I have played a lot of my self and I always struggled with this level.

I hope you feel better soon. Your health is more important than videos but I do long for more of this series and the man the guns imperial England.
Ah old times. Man the guns was the latest dlc...
I've played this game for 3 years and never had a map that even comes close t being as perfect as this one. wow
Don’t be so hard on yourself my dude! You do a great job of balancing commentary and attention to detail. Having a lot of fun watching your content!
God bless man. This was great commentary and I got the game because of you :) Looks so fun!!
Thank you , been waiting for you to play this for a long time.
Bro you gotta take a break. Rest up, I really hope you feel better! (: Praise be.
Glad to see this game back on your channel and what a great start!
this is the most epic snow survival of all time.
Yes Pravus plays They are Billions!
a few tips, a 10 wood spot will always be within 1 tesla tower of starting, you want it as soon as you can afford it
decrepit builds that arent radars should be sold for a bonus gold stack, radars should be powered, viewed, and then sold.
lastly, its good to spread out your archers when moving them, the more things you have in a pile, the more noise they make, and noise is semi exponential if memory serves
kira angle correct. Basically 20 rangers spread out on a 2-3 tile separation makes the same noise as like 9 rangers in a tight ball
35:55 look at money 543 > 636 , bulding thats sell as bank but -30 woods :) amaaaaazing player
and noone tents up
Don't worry so much about leaving room in a housing area for later buildings - at least when it comes to tents. Tents are so cheap that they pay for themselves in a few minutes. It's best to just lay them down as fast as possible and delete them when you need the space.
No food? Frozen terrain?

I love your commentary and playstyle, keep it up man
For Pravus it is very in-tents

Pravus- Has a nice amount of gold STONKS
this is going to be a really in"tents" playtrough :D
I have the 11th comment.
Praise the Pravus Cult Compound!
This is really fun to watch, you should play more of this

It's looks more like a city builder, rather than a zombie game.

This game is great continue the series please

not that funny.. i mean.. not at all
Thank you for playing TAB again, I've been waiting for a while for more of it!
This game looks like so much fun!
Are you better Pravus? You should rest if you are still sick,
@Stellvia Heonheim Yeah, but he was sick a couple of weeks BEFORE my original comment
Hope you're feeling better, Pravus. Also, fans of Pravus, They Are Billions!

You know you can press the F4 button to flatten the map and see what you can build behind cliffs and trees.
for a sec i thought you are going for the good ol´ Alt+F4 advice
I've been playing the game for a while and this is news to me!
@@TheVergilehe meant alt f4, just forgot to add the alt
@@catfacecat. ah, never tested it, but it kinda made sense to me. in old games the function keys often were used to torn off opacity on different render layers.
for the first wave, it would've been clutch if you took your lazy soldier from the south woods and replaced him with a ranger
Finally! I have been wishing for this since the steamed video :D
Me to
Yay!!! Hope you're doing better Pravus!!!
I would absolutely suck at this game
praise pravus
You can press F4 to see the map without the elevation so you can see behind trees and mountains.

we do have good RTS VR game like this. Brass Tactics

been waiting forever for this series finally it heppened
Good to see beginners playing TAB.
Wait until you play custom maps with 1000 giants as the final wave.

Was this a no ballista challenge? One at each choke point would have been so much easier. This map was perfect for them.
Like this series.
damn this starting at the map is pretty good normally u have to reroll an incredibly amount of time to get such an awesome start at the map
also... wouldnt it be easier to kite the z around with one archer and let the rest shoot the zombies while 1 is just luring them in circles?
Cool vid but why overlapping w/ the Tes Towers?

Haven't seen this in awhile
Did you guys know the train in this game makes a specific Michael Jackson sound? : Sayin Iiihhhh.
Brain Power ? Ooooooo.....Aaaaaaia.....Iaejooooooooo....
there can be to many tents, just place them in the front lines then there are to many
team PETROL! THANATOS! lol
Oh great god pravus , does thou haveth a twitch channel?
so would you say this game is in-tents?
I'm invested
Looks interesting but I'm not touching it until it gets out of early access
Really the campaign is the only thing keeping it in EA, the survival mode is done.
does this work on a not so good cpu??
that is not in any way on your doorstep, I had a game where I could see a village from spawn
He literally said "The important thing is that it is not right on my doorstep" Kinda the opposite from what you implied he said.
Nice similar to C&C what happen to those guys they never sold more..... those game are amazing
you made good tips for the game if I get it
Do you know same type of game like this one? Just strategy when you have to DEFEND and BUILD ? thanks
well this is actually just a tower defense game.... mixed with rts and no many games like that aren't made.
on the edge of my seat the whole time until he finally clicked farm research
i have never been so early
good stuff
commenting for the Yt algorithm.
is this just "base defense" game... or there's actually standard RTS play possible too... is there multiplayer in this game?
it's a tower defense/rts mix game and no... but multiplayer would be a good addition

I played FrostPunk a year ago. And people allways used to mention this game at the coments. So im curious about it. I may try it.
this game need cheap roads so you can put a layout for your stuff.
Do you have to click on each little zombie to kill them? Jeez.
Frozen is an easier mapIMO as the Zombies are slower... I can usually win on Nightmare 100 Days but 80 Days is just beyond me...
