Best map for long term community/farming

[Serverus88]

A few buddies of mine are getting ready to do a trio lethal game mode. We are trying to build up resources to pump into lethal to help with the difficulty curve. What is the best map for farming resources/longterm community. I am using Trumbull atm.

For me the Farmland Compound is the best long term base. With so many slots you can farm to your hearts' content and still build almost everything else you want. Although there are spawn points in the fields around, I very rarely see them as hordes wandering by the base and getting in like happens with many other bases on all maps.

As to map, for me the one that has the best overall mix of loot and unique bases has to be Meagher Valley. Squelones Brewing is a fantastic base that allows so much influence farming by making craft beer and barleywine to sell that it should be illegal. With all that influence you will be able to buy many resources and items you normally couldn't. The map has many farms as well that are great food outposts.

The map I enjoy the most because of its size and many different areas on the map is going to be unpopular. That map is Drucker. Most people's complaints about Drucker stem from how rough it is to drive offroad to get anywhere. Once you find the shortcuts, this map is great fun to explore and loot.

Overall though, because of the Farmland Compound, my opinion for best long term community map is Trumbull Valley. Depending on your definition of Long term, you may need to do all the maps, or at least the ones I mentioned if you are hoping to reach 100 days, simply due to resources. I would either finish on Trumbull, or start there, travel to other maps, and make your way back there. I have a community (one of my forever type communities) that has 56 days and I play for an hour about once a week. They are housed at the Farmland Compound.

Best way to long-term a community is to jump from map to map.

Stater Map : Meagher Valley
This map use as startup to collect rare weapon from Weapon Case. Since the map quite flat you can go to each point quite fast.
I usually stop until I got Eternal Guard's Infinite Rage since this weapon the hardest to get.

If you want to do this step, just make all green zone if not just do the random map and move to the next map (or random again) when you destroyed all plague heart and skip the Legacy Mission.

Protectron has the way of it.
