►6 Recommended Base Locations | The Forest

Was requested by ScuviT to make a video on some of my favorite / good base locations, here is that video :D! Feel free to post your own favorite locations, maybe even let others know why you like it~ :)

*Hidden Mountain*, base in the mountains: https://youtu.be/doH-iefaiIw
*Laputa*, a floating base: https://youtu.be/_aPTbqKqyr8
*Lighthouse*, edge of the beach peninsula: https://youtu.be/Yw6HiT0Os44

*This video*:
#1, Beach: http://theforestmap.com/#334.4,1304.8 1:07
#2, Lonely Rocks: http://theforestmap.com/#92.2,1095.9 2:35
#3, Red Cliff: http://theforestmap.com/#-663.3,1508.6 4:16
#4, Two Cliffs, One Beach: http://theforestmap.com/#-1070.9,631.8 5:43
#5, Rivendell: http://theforestmap.com/#999.5,-431.5 7:05
#6, Geese Lake: http://theforestmap.com/#690.8,340.8 10:18

*Bonus*:
#1, Cannibal Village Take Over (any house as shown): 3:46
#2, Opposite of #4 (above list): http://theforestmap.com/#-1279.0,-260.3 6:36 (both sides of this valley could be used)
#3, not shown in video: http://theforestmap.com/#1251.9,306.5 . These containers can be good, but fire mutants, and explosives if they're added back, can hurt you through the container - so this ends up being less fun later in the game lol (but great until then). The island across from here isn't bad but I prefer the other island I showed in video next to #3, Red Cliff as it is closer to resources.

*Updated Notes*:
-Teleporting benches have been a bit nerfed since this video, but as of typing this the catapults have similar functionality as what used to be for benches - and you can use those for now... Till it's patched at least lol.
-The beach is a bit more active than when this video was first made, so be aware #1 will have more enemies
-You can now easily build in the giant trees, they're indestructible and immune to fire, way better than normal tree houses
-Water now kills enemies that enter deep enough for "swimming" depth, this makes lakes and island bases even better
-It seems that most of the eastern beach front, including #3, has low enemy activity - #3 continues to be a really calm spot
-In my Christmas video (last half) I show building in the giant trees, as well as two other goofy tips: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oll0GRBpPdw&t=0s
