I have a problem im buidling my factory and ran into a big biter nest does anyone have some tips for me?
I dont have high tech atm but working my way up but increasing the base attracts those biters.

screenshot about the base: http://prntscr.com/4tllw4

Throw poison capsules at the worms, and focus on the nests with your shotgun.
When you start to get surrounded, retreat and kill off the biters following with the SMG.

i dont have poison capsules

See the FAQ, link is in my sig.

Right now - Build 10 gun turrets surrounded by walls at every base you want to protect.

Soon - Upgrade those gun turrets to laser turrets.

Future - Get poison capsules and distractor capsules to kill the base.

ssilk that really helped thanks mate
Such a awesome community

Don't need no fancy capsules, just get a car, a big pile of grenades and go in shotguns a-blazing at full throttle boomboomboom
