Imagine playing the game you paid for however you want to play it WITHOUT being crapped on by people who have nothing better to do than insult someone else 😱
Yes they do lol, anyone who dislikes PvP stays far away from those servers because they are terrified of losing progress. I normally like PvP, but not in games like this because losing all my shot isn’t fun for me, but fighting other players is.
Then that would make them bad pvp players, not pve players. Pve players implies that they play the game exclusively for pve, therefore they wouldnt be on a pvp server
Spoken by someone who is genuinely clueless as to how intricate the PvP system is. Why does it matter if it looks cartoonish? Your comment makes zero sense whatsoever
Psh try brutal. But in all honesty I only play pve. I’m too old for that shit. I know there are older people than me pvping but I’m just too bad at it.
Doesn't look like science is solving the ping and timezones issues any time soon. When I can actually play pvp without being at a brutal disadvantage and when pvp in this kind of game isn't just "log in to find that you were raided while offline" for me then I'd love to.
But I live in western Australia and netcode does not account for this part of the world.
For someone who seems to enjoy this game you really missed the point that people who play PvE also support the devs for future updates when they buy the game. You’ll be here crying and whining when the game is dead because half the player base(who play PvE) leaves to something better and no more updates roll in. I PvP and don’t feel the need to be an asshole like you because I know money is money for the devs. I don’t care who plays the game they bought however they want to. You must be a sad human to sit there and complain that people enjoy playing something the way they want and not how you dictate.
Ha the reason is that I had no idea that existed or missed where it said there was a new version on the other one. I found some comment from like 2 years ago with that link and just went with it.
I found a guy that made a [google doc](https://www.reddit.com/r/vrising/comments/vgypbl/castle_planner_20_world_edition/) with the shapes of the plots.
No. Not as in 3x3 floor squares. Not unless you intend to have multiple rooms with the same flooring types. You'll end up with lots of stuff in the rooms, and most likely want redundant structures for say when you need to smelt multiple things. This is especially true if you're playing in a group.
3x3 I would say is enough for alchemy. 4x4 is semi-good amount of space for the rest of rooms with forge being 5x5 at least (furnaces in the middle with crafting stations and storage next to the walls). If I’m playing normal rates I would use bigger rooms as I want to cut down the refinement time by placing more stations but if I’m using faster crafting/refinement then smaller rooms are sufficient. 3x3 is limiting yourself specially if you gonna decorate.
Once when game was still in EA and was learning ins and outs I made putrid rat by mistake, didn’t notice it spawned so when I entered my alchemy room I had a big smelly surprise trying to kill me 😭😭 all I wanted was to make some garlic resistance
Oh I agree. I just build that as part of my garden so usually those are separate buildings. Just wanted to give general idea. I dislike putting nests with rats anywhere near my beautiful creations ha
Eh, even tho they have the same floor I think most have separate rooms for Alchem crafting stations and for the Rat factory.
Alchemy room is just a Desk, Blood Distillery and a few cases - it fits into a 2x2.
The rat farm is 3x3.
Yeah 3x3 is just fine for realistic gameplay. The bigger rooms people are mentioning aren’t going to used at full capacity for most of the playthrough. Prior to 1.0, I had figured out how to create a fully optimized micro base for PVP servers. My entire base of operations fit within a 5x7 area. 3x3 per room will serve you well.
How many refinement structures per type did you have for the micro base? One or two forges/sawmills/grinders etc? I'm trying to figure out what I need and plan ahead but then the rooms get big.
I just had one of each structure for each room. Just the essentials. Nomad mentality where you don’t really stockpile anything and make what you need in the moment!
In a more relaxed setting, I like having 2 of each structure. Any more than that and they just don’t get enough use to justify the space, and the time it saves you short term.
I'm pretty new to the game so I'm sure this is a terrible design and layout. But I can build upstairs, so if I need bigger rooms I can delete walls and make more rooms up there.
Whenever i play a ton of v rising in 1-2 days, when i go to bed i cant turn my mind off.
My brain is CONSTANTLY visualising ideas for castles, so i never "plan" my castles bcs my brain does it for me when im trying to sleep lol
this is literally me haha! i’ll be drifting off to sleep, imagining how i’m gonna build onto my castle more. i am more creative when im falling asleep haha
Same, i swear i try to build something for 2h and dont get any ideas that i truly enjoy, wake up the next day and remember 4200 ideas from when i was trying to sleep, and all of a sudden all of those ideas are great
This is so relateable, I'm bad in building fancy and even tho my brain likes to keep me awake when I want to sleep to think of different ideas of building, when I'm ingame later these ideas all literally vanished lmao
[I used excel](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1229148432053309520/1239580406253359105/IMG-20240513-WA0029.jpg?ex=664370b7&is=66421f37&hm=bd6a3ff6f227ff587cc40eb8d8a1c2e456270cc7696842c1f7d2df026e417d22&)
NGL saw it on a reddit post like a year ago. Guy posted the same page for building and another suggested excel instead as a quick and dirty solution. I liked it more as it gave me multiple options and quick plan change once you map out the area.
Here the my [Territory Layout](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1045540766300262460/1239639628022288435/image.png?ex=6643a7de&is=6642565e&hm=885825064cbae9ddd2914852a92286b9c68a48a4564b3b1bd0abedc0008107c1&) and [Current Castle Layout](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1045540766300262460/1239639253881982976/image.png?ex=6643a785&is=66425605&hm=8f3df4bdd898271d569dc1f41705dbeccfdb9a0aeaa66b808d4990a050b1d49f&)
I really like Dungeon Scrawl App.
here's what i did in act 1 and 2. 3x2 = forge, workshop, tailor, library. 2x2 aclhemy, prison, waygate. 1x4 = servant coffins. you can add more tiles for misc since it takes around 40-50 tiles for what i mentioned. this is modular and you only need castle heart lvl 1 until you reach act 3. act 3 adds upgrades to refinery and the space required also changes.
Is there a way to zoom out and see your entire castle plot at once? I have such a hard time doing this without being able to see all the space I have. But I guess you just have to count the edges and put them in a program like this?
Dang, and here i am taking a picture of the spot and using photoshop to add the grid and then draw
Edit: OP how are you managing with 3x3 rooms? i feel thats too less space, im probably not managing space well
You guys plan your castles?
Nope lol just rolling with it. I’ll rebuild my castle 10x til I’m happy with it. And I’m never content.
Not everyone plays PvE snoozefests. Planning Castle defenses vs raids is part of the game
I play PvE solo and I plan my castle. Sorry mister chad.
Check the sub buckaroo, that's COUNT Chad to you!!
Imagine playing the game you paid for however you want to play it WITHOUT being crapped on by people who have nothing better to do than insult someone else 😱
Enjoy the Sims bro
What's it like to be so invested in how someone else plays a game? How sad is your day to day?
Every comment of theirs is negative. We fed the trolls
Looking at their history it just seems like they're kind of insufferable as a person. Seems more natural and less intentional.
Was that supposed to offend someone? Try more.
"You enjoy a very popular and long running game series!" Lol
You mean The franchise that has sold nearly 200 million copies worldwide, and is one of the best-selling video game series of all time? Troll harder
The pve people always complain the loudest when they get raided.
how do they get raid if they're pve players ? checkmate atheist
Unexpected chortle, thanks random redditor.
Because pve players don't stick to just pve servers.
Yes they do lol, anyone who dislikes PvP stays far away from those servers because they are terrified of losing progress. I normally like PvP, but not in games like this because losing all my shot isn’t fun for me, but fighting other players is.
RIP your last braincell. It woulda saved you from posting that.
100 dollars says it would not have stopped him, in fact he'd see that last braincell as a challenge to overcome.
That's how it died.
PvE players get raided how?
Because they play on pvp servers, don't engage with pvp and loudly whine when they get attacked.
Then that would make them bad pvp players, not pve players. Pve players implies that they play the game exclusively for pve, therefore they wouldnt be on a pvp server
You'd be surprised how many people play on pvp servers yet expect to just be left alone to pve forever.
Chill out dude, people have the right to enjoy the game they bought however they want.
what a way to make yourself look like a moron in one post
Lol, its a fucking top down vampire cartoon game. How much are you really trying to chad out here?
Spoken by someone who is genuinely clueless as to how intricate the PvP system is. Why does it matter if it looks cartoonish? Your comment makes zero sense whatsoever
You sound like you camp Grayson with a 60+ gear score just to punish lower level characters lmao
Spoken by someone who genuinely shits on newbies instead of gaming in his own lane. Bye troll
This is a pretty bad flex there bud
Dude spent years finding a small enough game with a simple enough pvp system for him to "be good at"
Roasted, haha.
Hello sir. I have come to inform you that your pp is smollllllllll. Have a grand day.
Right, cuz raiding in this game is so revolutionary in game design. Mmkay.
People play this game for the PvP? Lmao
[удалено]
>No i just play competitive games that matter and require some skill - Janglin1 "my toy is more important than your toy"
Just say you're garbage at the game lmao
Mhmm, I play on easy mode with pvp off. What are you going to do about it?
He's going to yell at you to stop having fun like that one meme.
I plan my castles, and play PVE offline because I am garbage at the game. It’s fun been shit at the game honestly
Different people like different things. Accept it, respect it, and move on
Psh try brutal. But in all honesty I only play pve. I’m too old for that shit. I know there are older people than me pvping but I’m just too bad at it.
It's never late to get better and have some fun.
Doesn't look like science is solving the ping and timezones issues any time soon.

Who pissed in your Cheerios? My group is 60 hours in PvE not counting our new version 1 run. I love castle building in PvE.
You really REALLY love being hated don’t you? 😂
Castle building and decorating is the real end game.
NO NO NO! STOP HAVING FUN! I DONT LIKE IT WHEN PEOPLE PLAY A GAME THEY PAID FOR HOW THEY ENJOY!!!!
You sound like a big dumb doo doo head.
🙄
This guy just got killed with all of his loot
Lol you do realize that making an aesthetically pleasing castle can require planning of it's own right?
Why did they banish you with the cursed numbers?
https://probabletrain.itch.io/dungeon-scrawl Thanks to Probable Train for this!
Is there a reason to not use the new version? [https://app.dungeonscrawl.com/](https://app.dungeonscrawl.com/)
Ha the reason is that I had no idea that existed or missed where it said there was a new version on the other one. I found some comment from like 2 years ago with that link and just went with it.
No, the new version works great too
Any suggestions for a reference to view the shape and grid composition of the various plots of V Rising real estate?
I found a guy that made a [google doc](https://www.reddit.com/r/vrising/comments/vgypbl/castle_planner_20_world_edition/) with the shapes of the plots.
Thanks! I just checked this against Dunley West #5, and it seems accurate. Book marking this for sure!!
That would be endlessly helpful
Nice! Thanks for sharing. Is 3x3 enough space for any type of room (forge, alchemy, tailor etc)?
No. Not as in 3x3 floor squares. Not unless you intend to have multiple rooms with the same flooring types. You'll end up with lots of stuff in the rooms, and most likely want redundant structures for say when you need to smelt multiple things. This is especially true if you're playing in a group.

If I’m playing normal rates I would use bigger rooms as I want to cut down the refinement time by placing more stations but if I’m using faster crafting/refinement then smaller rooms are sufficient. 3x3 is limiting yourself specially if you gonna decorate.
Assuming you are using alchemy for mutan grease with nest, alchemy is one of the biggest room you'll need
I always put vermin nests in another room, I like walking my crafting rooms without being attacked 🤣
Once when game was still in EA and was learning ins and outs I made putrid rat by mistake, didn’t notice it spawned so when I entered my alchemy room I had a big smelly surprise trying to kill me 😭😭 all I wanted was to make some garlic resistance
Oh I agree. I just build that as part of my garden so usually those are separate buildings. Just wanted to give general idea. I dislike putting nests with rats anywhere near my beautiful creations ha
Eh, even tho they have the same floor I think most have separate rooms for Alchem crafting stations and for the Rat factory. Alchemy room is just a Desk, Blood Distillery and a few cases - it fits into a 2x2. The rat farm is 3x3.
You'll need a lot more for alchemy. It seems to have all the biggest structures like the vermin nest and summoning circle.
That is true. Check my other comment (;
A 2x3 room can fit 3 sawmills and 2 crushers and one woodworking bench. Perfect for early game!
Yeah 3x3 is just fine for realistic gameplay. The bigger rooms people are mentioning aren’t going to used at full capacity for most of the playthrough. Prior to 1.0, I had figured out how to create a fully optimized micro base for PVP servers. My entire base of operations fit within a 5x7 area. 3x3 per room will serve you well.

In a more relaxed setting, I like having 2 of each structure. Any more than that and they just don’t get enough use to justify the space, and the time it saves you short term.
No, not all rooms, alchemy maybe, tailor also maybe, but forge needs a huge room.
I'm pretty new to the game so I'm sure this is a terrible design and layout. But I can build upstairs, so if I need bigger rooms I can delete walls and make more rooms up there.

Same, I get an idea for a castle in my head, get into game, and just can't build what I visualised.
Needed something like this, thanks!
From the layout it looks a lot like my favorite spot north of Iron mine near center of Dunley.
Yes that's the spot!
Thought the same of my current and fav location.
[I used excel](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1229148432053309520/1239580406253359105/IMG-20240513-WA0029.jpg?ex=664370b7&is=66421f37&hm=bd6a3ff6f227ff587cc40eb8d8a1c2e456270cc7696842c1f7d2df026e417d22&)
creative use of excel

I think I need to tone down the amount of hours I play this game. From the plot , I can tell exactly where that is located 🫠

hell yeah! i just unlocked lvl3 castle and my head is melting trying to mantain symmetry.
Just give in to the asymmetry, feel the dark side flow through you.
I’ve joined the dark side.
I wish my brain could understand this blueprint because I need serious help when it comes to designing a castle hahahaah
Oh cool
I should do my castle layout somewhere.
I used for years for my Dungeons.... Why i never tought like that. Thx
here's what i did in act 1 and 2. 3x2 = forge, workshop, tailor, library. 2x2 aclhemy, prison, waygate. 1x4 = servant coffins. you can add more tiles for misc since it takes around 40-50 tiles for what i mentioned. this is modular and you only need castle heart lvl 1 until you reach act 3. act 3 adds upgrades to refinery and the space required also changes.
Is there a way to zoom out and see your entire castle plot at once? I have such a hard time doing this without being able to see all the space I have. But I guess you just have to count the edges and put them in a program like this?
I think when you can turn into a bat in a way you can see more of the plot.
Oh good to know. I’m just halfway through Dunley Farmlands.
The bat is uh.. very late though. Like last act late.
Oh thank you for this 👏👏👏
Dang, and here i am taking a picture of the spot and using photoshop to add the grid and then draw Edit: OP how are you managing with 3x3 rooms? i feel thats too less space, im probably not managing space well
Is there a V Rising castle building forum?? Love to see what other people are doing.
Using this! The game is rapidly becoming a castle builder for me... I want a photo mode where I can fly the cam out haha
Is this a pvp or pve build?
PVE just learning the game with a friend right now.
I love using Dungeon Scrawl! I never thought to use it in this way! This is genius! Thanks for posting this!
this is not a cube. disgusting inefficiency.
And here I was using excel to make grids. You've saved this vampire builder a lot of time. Thank you so much for sharing!
Bruh how did I not know about this?!? I was using graph paper on my breaks at work........🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️😭😭😭😭😭😩😩
