Don't build in the wasteland!

[D3F14NT]

I tried it, had sweet set up between the arctic biome and the forbidden zone where the steep drop off from the arctic meets the red water in the wasteland. Stone 4 story trapping base with a small trap with multiple beds. And had a secondary spawn point across the river on top of the cliffs. Survived the meteor showers, trapped a few high level wolves (I'm in sp with most dinos spawning at or under 60, all dinos were 150+) from the nearby cave that runs under or into (haven't gone that far) the arctic biome. And i had a hidden stash box. All built at different times (within the span of a week or so), in a reasonable distance from each other, but by no means close.

Had it about a week or two then while luring a wolf I heard a crash then upon arriving at my tower of a base, with wolf in tow, finding nothing but bags.

I know the corrupted can shred a base, but this wasn't the case. If it was one structure maybe, but this was everything within a 3 minute radius.



So unless this is a glitch be aware the wasteland is no place to try and build permanently. It may just be that reddish region. Bc my much older waypoint base in between the desert and arctic biome is just fine and so is my Underwood base.

Idk, any insight will help and maybe I can help someone avoiding the same bs.


But my main base in sanctuary is fine so it's safe to assume this applies to wasteland only.

If it just happened today this is the reason v286.104 Element Vein Fix
We have just deployed v286.104 onto our official servers and unofficials may now also update. There is also a client-side update that single-player survivors should download.

An unintended issue with Element Veins being enabled caused some bases near veins to be destroyed. We will not be doing a server-wide rollback as a rollback could cause even more players to lose their progress and characters. However, we will be introducing 3x harvest rates shortly onto official PC servers to allow players to reconstruct their bases as quickly as possible over the weekend.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
