Zombies destroying Metal with just a few hits?

[The Stranger]

Alright, so I build this giant metal base with friends around a house and it's locked for zombies with doors and Metal walls.
Yet, when I spawn inside and zombies spawning outside hear me, they instantly attack the walls and just with a few hits (mostly around 5 or so) the walls break.
I thought Metal walls and stuff were supposed to keep you safe, yet, with breaking so fast they are even more dangerous.
Back in the days stuff was almost unbreakable, which was kind of crap when you misplaced stuff, but now, it's even worse.
Also nice is if they spawn inside the fort and get stuck in walls, which then immediately break and them being stuck somehow gives them the ability to break walls 50 feet away from them as well.

And yes, I moved all my forts UP on the house, but I can't build my garage up in the air.
And I just have to be on the other side of it and Zombies will start destroying it, even f they could easily just walk around it.

This needs to be improved.

IS your base near a town/zombie spawns?

You remind me of when a guy is asking for tips on how to lower the game lag on his computer, and you say "get a better computer."

After he says he will not buy another computer.

You can say its "not the issue" but they can`t break things that are not in their area. they are limited in their roaming so far. I saw a garage built right next to gun shop..just asking for zombies to destroy it, and the gun shop had locked windows and door so guess what? Draw fire to the area and let the zombies do the work!

That's not what we are talking about xD

Whos we? I saw no post of yours here, and as far as I`m concerned the title of this thread says it all.
"Zombies destroying Metal with just a few hits?"
anything else is hijacking the topic for your own agenda in my opinion.

If you don`t agree, make a topic that pertains to structure strength. I don`t agree with Dmitry much, but if you build where zombies spawn you just asking for it. Even if they don`t destroy it right away, they don`t stop till they are finished.

Nope.
Aaand Zombies spawn pretty much everywhere for me whenever I quit the game.
I can have my base miles away from the city, in a field where no zombie has ever been, exit the game, restart it and boom, zombies inside the building and outside of it.
It's like a magnet.

Not the issue. Walls DO need to have more health. A new spawn with just their bare fists could break down the walls if they had the time and patience too.

Exactly this. It's hilarious and on my second run I didn't even bother building a new base.
If metal is this weak, I don't wanna know how weak wood is.

Like I mentioned before; even outside of cities / zombie spawns zombies will STILL destroy your crap.
I know about the limit, and I have used it well, but on the next restart the spawns will be different anyway.
It's really frustrating and no fun at all.
"Hey, guys, look at my awesome metal fort." - 2 zombies and 10 minutes later coming back from looting: "Wasn't there my fort here?"
Not fun. Not good for the game. Actually made me hate the PEI map, haha.

Ignore the OP for a moment.

What if they aren't playing PEI and a zombie ends up at the house? Why is it mandatory for all bases to be midair just so zombies can't easily destroy it; surely this isn't the intention base building.
