Yeah, this is a seriously huge component of base defense and yet it's something I'm sure wasn't intended/considered and should be easily fixed. Please fix it!
I would consider this a exploit, yeah this needs to be removed from the game, It is ruining it.
A master piece of building mechanics. :v:
Is this really an exploit... or is it immersive developing gameplay..?
a cheap exploit. if it were an intentional gameplay element, you'd still be able to stack boxes on walls.
Yes... it has been going on for much time now and they still didn't fix it.
''When developing this gap we need to keep in mind that people are crafty and will find a way to work around it. They’ll build stairs over a fence. They’ll put a sleeping bag outside the base so when they die they can respawn there, pick up their weapons and carry on. We want to avoid adding systems to dissuade these types of behavior. If anything they should be rewarded – because they’re finding their own solutions to problems. We want to find solutions that allow the defending players to find innovative solutions to attacks. Ideally solutions that don’t involve putting a million doors in your house, or building a maze around it.'' - Garry Newman

Yeah, we know, this isn't the same. It's clipping a pillar through a barricade.

The difference between everything Garry stated and this, is this is a bug. Making clever use of sleeping bags, building stairs over a fence, etc. is all find and just clever. While the palisade stacking is clever, it's a bug. You're literally sticking a palisade into a wall.

This isn't new... I find it to be a creative way of raiding. How fun is it when it's going to be absolutely impossible for anyone to get your stuff? If base defense mechanics are going to be established and c4 always takes 2 per wood wall now then why not leave it in? Raiding is a big part of the game and it seems like everyone just wants to be able to horde everything for the duration of whatever server they're on.
I like servers that don't have too many airdrops; at least at first. It's much more fun to build up some and have everyone itching to get those explosives. By this time people have the other materials stockpiled and are ready to raid anyone on their shit-list. Maybe they have enough to make 10 c4. But then, if the only way up is through the bottom entrance, what's the point? If you bomb the house with metal doors it could easily take someone hundreds of c4 just to get anything good. It's not worth the time or materials for me to spend just to have some fun on this game.

Well this is clearly a bug. If you want the ability to scale structures, why not ask for a grappling hook or something? This wouldn't be necessary had the game been designed in a way that made partitioning bases with metal doors ineffective. The problem comes from the way the game is designed.
If anything it's the only form of a ladder which is realistic imo.
It is ruining the game.... realy, please fix it .... please.....
This is not ruining the game.
You all are ruining the game, for using this cheap method.
Just because it is possible it doesn't mean you absolutely have to use it. Or are you hacking because it's possible?
Game communities...
Dont fix this, pls.
Coz if this will be fixed -- no ways to raid house on pillars...

Yeah yeah... but wheres balance here? If devs fix this - ppl was start building houses 3x3x100500 and no 1 cant raid this. Also you can see houses on pillars. Rust need physycs of building.
I wonder if the devs noticed it yet.
Stop crying about this. It's easy to defend your base from this. Supereasy in fact. Everyone knows this is possible. It's your own fault if you don't take the necessary measures to stop people from doing this.
Everyone keeps complaining about people finding ways to raid bases. What is wrong with you? That's the most fun part in this game! Getting raided/raiding someone, having big shootouts etc. Like someone before me already said, if they keep removing stuff that allow people to raid other people, it's just going to be boring. You're going to need at least 30 c4 before you can raid a mediumsized base. And everyone is just going to be building high so in the end, those 30 c4 won't be enough anymore. The game is going to end up being all about the c4, and that is just plain boring.
ManJelL, do you really think they don't know about this? Come on, use your brain for once.

Houses are built on pillars all the time. It's a perfectly sound method of building used all over the world.

You must have been nicer than me....they closed my thread on this yesterday in less than an hour =/

At the end of the day it's crap, instead of taking the time to make a furnace (that worked fine in the first place) how about you take some time to fix some of the bugs that are killing the game...

Ever thought they closed it because you're acting like a dick?
I don't consider that being a dick, I consider it getting straight to the point. It's a valid reason to be pretty upset. 2 weeks worth of work out the window because of a stupid bug that's been there for MONTHS.
I would propose a compromise. Fix this bug and add a limit to the height of a house based on its foundation area (possibly only counting those foundations that are enclosed by walls). These 30 story 2x2's are kind of silly.
This can only happen if you leave pillars open to put the barricades on. You can't place a barricades on a fully built pillar, just on the top. So if you pillar up your base properly this isn't a problem. However I still think it should be fixed, unless they plan to keep it in as another dynamic of raiding, but something tells me that is not the case.
I am pretty sure they close the thread because it belongs to the "exploit" session of the forum.

Yea its definately clipping the barricade through the pillar, does not look intended. Feels glitchy
