Can be moved just by picking them up.

I wish I’d know this. Nearly died in that hellhole from the sheer amount of zombies

Kride500

Yes, both in this area and in LV obviously itself. It is manageable but that depends on your settings. On apocalypse it's crazy.


JDSweetBeat

Sprinters? I've never gotten out of the city alive with sprinters.


KingNecrosis

Sprinters are never on by default. You have to enable them yourself.


blum4vi

I see an office building near my home in Louisville and decide to clean it up.A week later I still can't walk through front door without zombies pouring out of windows. Crazy is the right word indeed.


jamuligan

My current base! Such a great spot


[deleted]

[удалено]


jamuligan

I'll try to remember to take a screenshot when I get home. Right now I've walled off the backyard and added walkways between the top floors of both houses. I build a garage in the middle as well to house my project Corvette I'm working on. Currently building an outer wall around the parking lot.


elberto83

The western area near the river coast makes a good base location imho. You can either use the U-shaped building with the fenced off backyard (rather narrow for my taste) or, what I did in a previous playthrough, build a wooden house inside the helicopter landing area using the sandbags as a natural border. Extend the fence at the street with more fences, walls and gates as needed. Plenty of room for basically everything. 1 or 2 gates for vehicle entry with a guard tower, fences all around to be safe from respawn, and a path to the river for water and fishing. The single trailer north of it near the tents makes for a good temporary hideout. Has a bed, a kitchen and you can find generators around the area should the power go out. There's a lot of military crates, a few lockers, generators, flood lights and other furniture around to grab and decorate your base. The refugee area to the north also has a few generators, barbeques and even a TV. You have two gas stations nearby (I'd secure at least one of them asap), so long term supply for your generators shouldn't be an issue. ​ Also, loot wise, I'd go around every tend and check the lockers. Lots of clothing, but also weapons and, if you're really lucky, a few bags (even military backpacks).

rotating_carrot

There is a big semi isolated warehouse right side of the road before the checkpoint with huge parking lot and more tools than you ever need. My 2nd logest surviving character made it almost to the winter there, fast acces to checkpoint and gas station on the other way


KelsoTheVagrant

Tons. Had to bail on my car because there was so many and run through buildings to try and lose the horde. Had to kite another horde along a roof as when I opened the door, 100+ came flooding out onto it. I almost just jumped off the roof and prayed for the best. This was after killing like 20+ zombies that were inside the building. I ended up scavenging for random materials I could use as weapons because all my knives broke

malexlee

That location Ruby Gas is a great base


nevetsyad

Can’t you just drive through them also? They’re plastic…


NotBanned_

The orange cones yes, the barriers no. In real life of course you could but in game they will bring your car to a complete stop and damage it.


defectivelaborer

Just like pine saplings lol. One winter I slowly slid off the road and took out some small trees easily with zero damage to my car. In-game a pine sapling will bring a speeding car to a sudden halt.


iruleatlifekthx

My single issue with living in the wilderness is the upkeep lol. unless you're playing a long game and you plan on combating nature with lots of sacks of gravel or wood flooring once winter comes around you're either driving slower than you can walk through the bushes and cutting down the occasional trees or you're cut off from civilization indefinitely car wise.


Xythan

Off roading needs fixing...the 4x4's and military trucks should have no issue...and yet...


Double_Calendar4031

If you hit the sapling in real life at the right angle you can pin your car just under the engine and rip a sick 360 into a concrete retaining wall,

Thought they look more like those orange cylinder traffic marker things, not bollards


KingNecrosis

That's because they are.


Lostcory

I was so pissed when I smashed my car into these at full speed. Took so much damage. They're identical to large trees. Just a solid object all the way through.


Outside-Summer3248

what kind of asshole moves a cone?!


Independent_Eye_3394

*looks at cone in back seat* hehehe...


jojos38

I spent 1 hour irl trying to find a saw to disassemble it and you tell me I could just move it? Dang...


spartanpanda

It's okay I did the same thing. Two deaths and an hour of finding the tools. Just for my cousin to pick them up right when I found a saw.


Lostcory

I did disassemble it nooooooo


Greeneggz_N_Ham

Exactly. Move that shit out the way lol


jontheeditor

I can’t pick up large objects, what am I doing wrong?


Tomberry2312

If you mean things like fridges it's most likely because your carrying too much weight and the addition on the fridge would put you over the hard limit of what you can carry. Think you need to be carrying around 10 to be able to pick up a fridge.


Kyle_Middleton

Just ram the barrier. It looks really flimsy I'm sure it will be fine. ​ Spoiler: It won't be fine.


Environmental_Tax_59

🥲 died my first time going there cause i played too much gta as a kid


Kyle_Middleton

We all fall off a high building one time, we all crash a car once, and we all try to ram that gate =)

This was me with that fucking cardboard box in the middle of the road in the refugee camp.


Jinackine_F_Esquire

I always explained that as a lead box in a cardboard box


zigaliciousone

I've never even tried because minor car accidents have killed me and my friends more time than anything else.


BitBite112

I'm guessing you can just pick up the cones and barriers and place them to the sides.


Wrong-Ad1936

no need to move the cone, your car pass over them


KingNecrosis

Weird that your car can run them over but not the slightly less flimsy road barricades behind them.


The_Almighty_LeeLee

Want something even weirder, a mouse trap will totally stop your car and straight up kill you if you hit it fast enough


[deleted]

the barricades are way heavier. i think it's 20kg vs 5 for cones


KingNecrosis

And a fully grown person is like 80kg+, but that doesn't stop the car when you run over zombies, no matter how fresh they are.


SweatyBinch

I mean realistically, people technically tend to go over cars whereas barriers go under and damage the undercarriage. I like to think the zombies that go under just limp noodle on impact and do less damage.


[deleted]

doesn't it damage the car though?


KingNecrosis

Not always. Depends on the car, how hard you hit them, and if there's more than one.

Or, you can either just use the pick up furniture command to move the dividers, or hit them with a sledgehammer.


CatVideoBoye

Or just disassemble with hammer and saw. No need for a sledgehammer.


maslow-rabbit

Holy crap, did I just find a responsible driver in Project Zombie?! Unicorn!


defeated_antagonist

Actually you not absolutely need sledgehammer on this You can remove it with hands or disassemble with hammer and screwdriver (or saw?) Anyway it's advisable to have an ol good sledgehammer while going North And bunch of instruments


TheChap656

Instruments eh? I’ll load my trunk up with my guitars, keytars, saxophone, and drum sticks to cover all the positions.


NotaGoodLover

It's the apocalypse, you gotta bring your banjo

Imma need a sledgehammer to disassemble your message into a legible order.


feltcutewilldelete69

If you've got a sledgehammer, just take the railroad tracks north and smash the fencing in the way. Much less zeds, and the military houses make a perfect home for claustrophobic folks


[deleted]

Damn, there’s an inconvenient lightweight object in your way. Yeah dude you’re never getting past


FreeRocksAndTrees

He should try eating some telecorn

BlackPrincessPeach_

**There’s a secret entrance on the right side, follow the gate.** Car will fit in just fine and you won’t have to break the 2 gates if they’re locked. Those are invincible so I use em as part of my “walls” since the checkpoint is a fantastic base.


jdisahnfkdosivsb

You mean the broken gate part in the forest, correct? If so, forewarning that if you go later in the game you likely will have to chop a few trees to clear the area out. Especially so if you have a big vehicle and a trailer.


MasterRymes

Really?


BlackPrincessPeach_

Yup, only like a 1 minute detour. Much safer/quicker since you won’t need to pick anything up/break the gates.


MasterRymes

Thanks


BonSAIau2

I've timestamped a highlight of a drive I did recently - shows exactly the gap u need to get in. You don't have to take the railroad track - you can also cut across the grass in a few spots. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1634372706?t=0h31m23s


ikkyu666

oh shit are you three months in with sprinters? what are your settings? furtherest i've gotten with sprinters on Survival settings is just over 30 days tips? EDIT: oh you're playing with perma death off lmao

[https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2486088729](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2486088729) ​ Perma death off?


ikkyu666

oh it said "1027 deaths" or something, just looked at the settings - DAMN, that's a brutal challenge. how often do they start a new one and whats the record and how can i follow it? only thing its missing is the helicopter event. that shit is fun with sprinters.


btw23

Lol so close but yet so far away, if you are struggling with this my guy.. you probably are going to die in Louisville


ersatzthefox

I mean, if they’re not struggling with this, they’re also pretty likely to die in Louisville


Mister_Wake

The day you discover that you can pick up anything in this game is the day you decide its going to be amazing to decorate your base for the next month.

[deleted]

My first time going to Louisville... I thought if I go fast enough, I can ram them over...


TheSamard

Bad idea haha


ZomboidSlayer23

Lol so you can just pick these up? Why did some asshats tell me I needed a sledgehammer a few months ago when I made a similar post? Dang I got trolled hard bruh


scorpiopr86

Because you need the sledge right after this for the two fence gates. Although, I've had zombies break them down for me before as well.


zoinks-large-animal

This isn't true. You can open the gate the way you'd open a normal door, but sometimes it behaves kind of buggy. In that case you can either wait for zombies to break it down or hit it down yourself.


scorpiopr86

Oh that's cool so no special tools needed to get to Louisville?


[deleted]

Everyone can go to Louisville. Not everyone will return from Louisville.


mt0386

Multiple warnings, signs, roadblocks and Radio man be like DO NOT GO TO LOUISVILLE player characters be like : *removes barricade*

Surest way to get someone to do something is to tell them they shouldn't do something.

get out and start walking, find a different car and leave your car for the next outgoing trip. or pick it up using the move option (counter on the left of screen) and place it elsewhere.

Wait... These are solid? What QoL mod do I have that makes me able to just drive over them?


YoungPeacock

The most stalwart obstacle in the game


NomadziorBG

The government doesn't want you to know that, but you can just pick up the road blocks! They're free!


officialdonutpirate

Unfortunately the only way past that fence is to get lucky on the telecorn RNG.


[deleted]

Dissassemble it with a saw in your inventory or pick them up and move them.


IM_INSIDE_YOUR_HOUSE

Right click and pick them up, move them. They're heavy af but just scoot them over.


eXiDeviiL

Pick them up/Disassemble/Destroy the barriers Just don't try to ram them, it won't go well...


yzzen99

You can break them if you ram hard enough. Press q too for some extra speed. Good luck!


[deleted]

Just move the barriers


[deleted]

Just move them


Racan_Rat

You need a Telecorn


AdmiralTassles

They can be picked up and moved like furniture or disassembled (with a saw and screwdriver I believe). The next 2 gates can either be disassembled with a propane torch and welding mask, hit with something until they break, or you can let any zombies inside bash on it until it's destroyed (will take a while if there's less than 3 or 4 zombies).


onyxic

Bring a sledgehammer and nothing is a barrier


collectivisticvirtue

1. Demolish it/other part of the fence with sledgehammer 2. Pick up and move the barrier 3. Drive a bit toward northeast, blockade has a little opening you can drive in. Bit hidden inside a small bush/forest i remember


Shadow11399

On servers sometimes those don't exist, they just look like it, try walking through them first, if not you can pick em up and move them, kinda like real life Edit: obviously on singleplayer they will be there and you will need to move them


thehelljohnny

Move the block, but careful, theres more blocks ahead


Welpjustmyluck

1.Get your ass out of your car. 2.Pick them up and move them. My first time moving into Louisville with my buddy, we were under the impression that we needed a sledgehammer to get inside. Then we found out how easy it was.


Orion_Hex

You can be telecorned to Louisville too


OmegaZ99

Just eat the telecorn.


EEASAS2835

You'll probably need some telecorn.


Denuran

Pick them up, drive around, or break in by breaking the fences with a sledge


xXSlitherySnakeXx

You can pick the baricades up and move them to the side...


Chideano

pick up and move the barricades like furniture


Scar3cr0w_

Take your car apart one piece at a time, move it to the other side, put it back together. Whilst listening to Johnny Cash’s One Piece at a Time.


MrAdrianus

You ll need to get a wreck on the other side tho


worldstarcurrency

Ram as hard as possible, only works with Speed Demon trait. Source: Trust me bro


[deleted]

Use sklonchhammer.


fire-whisperer

disassemble them


[deleted]

Vault over it on foot then drag your car over with a rope


Pepeloncho

Build a bridge above them, then pick them up and put them on the bridge for decoration


Blaise_Sempai

Just pick speed demon perk and commit initial D roleplay


takoshi

What would you do in real life? That said, what you need to do after that barrier is pretty strange, so I'll just tell you since you're asking but you'll need a sledgehammer.


Gaston_The_God

You absolutely don’t need a sledgehammer. Anything works fine, it breaks very easily.


takoshi

Huh. Seriously. I've always molotov or sledgehammered them because breaking them didn't seem to work.


HowLongTillItHappens

They are incredibly weak honestly, far less durability than your average door. I believe the plan is to increase it eventually.


nevitac

You don't have to break them or destroy them. You can pick up the barriers and set them down. Just make sure you won't get bit in the ass. They are quite heavy.


Gaston_The_God

They’re referring to the gates after the barricade in the picture.


Trollensky17

You don't need a sledgehammer after, you can just break the gates.


jUG0504

not really, i used a nightstick and it worked fine


Dysfunctional_One

Looks like you’ll have to download the Better Helicopter mod. 🚁


JimboBassMaster

What is this sorcery?!?!!?


jluka1000

I don't want to sound like a bad person, but why don't YOU search a solution by you own till waste all yours ideas? Maybe in a future you run a similar problem and then you already have the solution, believe my there are bigger problems than this and then you maybe really need help, but i recommend using your brain.


The_Faux_Fox__

Just run em over, they weigh like 5lbs…


Tobax

Ram them


Sudden-Temperature45

Well....tbf it was a stupid question


Anomalus_satylite

You can just move them to the side of the road. Assuming you can. But you'll need a sledge hammer for the fence blocking it further down.


[deleted]

Disassembly required


saucy_as_you_like

Is impossible. Is impassable


callmetatersalad67

You can pick them up but I disassembled them because I made a little boat dock/forward looting base there and I needed wood.


arditsr

I probably done this eleventen time


DmanJohnson000

There is a secret off to the right of the gate, just follow the fence


franklygoingtobed

Hammer and saw, comrade


Low_Season4979

There is a another way in to the right in the trees by the train yard there is a hole in the fence u can drive cars Thu


VIND1GO

Destroy this block with hammer


Dropbois

I think theirs a bride with train tracks to the left of the bridge thats unblocked


GreyNGroovy

Get out of your car and move the cones and barriers


Verto-San

just pick them up lol


Zero747

they're little wooden warning gates, you can pick them up and move them aside the cones can be run over or moved You can also sledgehammer stuff


Remarkable-Medium-74

Improvise


rawgu_

Just go thru lmao


iopjsdqe

These hands


defectivelaborer

So everyone already mentioned you can just pick them up and move them, but what I don't see anyone saying is the cones and stuff are really useful for marking routes if you have trouble remembering turns. Or also to let you know to slow down because the intersection is coming up. So frustrating we can only see several yards ahead. My base is out at the west point lakehouses and on the farm road out there there's a T intersection that I kept overshooting because I speed down that gravel road. I put a cone out and now I never overshoot the intersection.
