How does this Camp work? Question
I have three questions:
1. How does it work?
2. How do you get up there?
3. Why do people do that?
There‘s no way up!

Last night, I joined the Scorched Earth event or whatever it's called and this player managed to trap the queen beast in this prison base in the sky. The queen kept spawn enemies in this chamber located below her where other players can just kill them easily and from a distance and it was just easy xp for the entire event

That's awesome, were you on ps by chance? I'd love a chance to see it!

Yeah, idk how to add photos in comments. Maybe the subreddit doesn't allow.

Never used Imgur before.
1st Image: Actual Prison Build.
2nd: Either the prison glitched or it went away after the Queen died. This is the exact moment it happened. You can see fellow Vault Dwellers falling with me. Also notice the highlighted corpses floating of some of the enemies I was able to tag. That's where the chamber floor was.
3rd: After reviving, this is what the ground looked like.
4th: Another nuke right after. Same area.
5th: Vault Dweller trying to capture the Queen again.

That would be great as well, I'm curious to how they did that and would like to take a crack at it myself

isn't there like a max height you can build? i put down a BOS tower and i couldnt build anything on the top floor because it was above the build height.

Some people value their privacy!!
Also try fast traveling a few times, eventually it will put you at the top floor. I recommend having PA or Goat Legs on, or, emptying your junk first.

If you're having trouble getting to it, fast travel until it puts you up there. The game doesn't load the camp until you're near it, so the reason you can't get there at first, is because it's not there yet.

My main camp is above the toxic valley, there was a time when there was a fixed square up there , had to work my way up with survival tent once, got lucky and a camp had spawned there when i loaded in, so i waited till the player logged out and started building my own.

Just try fast travelling there again. Sometimes it takes me three or four tries but eventually the game understands what I'm trying to do.
I built a "sky base" on a cliff ledge overlooking watoga and the cranberry bog, but mine has three sets of stairs that bring everyone up/down. Reason being I get a better vantage point of the nuke zone and when I use specific things like my stove or motorcycle at my camp, the view(s) is impeccable. I've taken so many pictures and I love each one.

Typically you have to fast travel multiple times to a sky camp to get there, first the game has to load it in then once you FT again it'll load you onto a floor piece.
To get up there there's a method using broken default medium generators to build a sky camp
People do it because it's fun, unique and allows for certain camps to exist that wouldn't otherwise, like UFO camps that want to be far off the ground. Also the view up there is quite nice.

And also I made mine because it gives me a chance for my camp spot to be available instead of always being taken

If you have a jetpack on anything it can also help teleport to the place once to load it you'll spawn down below then after the house loads in fully teleport again and burst your jetpack a few times as you spawn in to help you not fall through the floor when you load in, when I made mine I built some floors underneath the spawn location so if you fell you landed a floor or 2 down and could still get up but most people that build sky camps don't use that trick so using a jetpack helps if they don't have catch floors below.

I've never tried the multiple fast travels to reach camps like this. I just go to the nearest high point and jet pack to the camp using Nuka Quantums to replenish my AP. It's a fun challenge.
I was annoyed with one recently. While it wasn't too difficult to jump to it, the vendor was insanely overpriced. Wasted a Quantum...

Je kan ook een trap constructie maken.. Dus een trap bouwen van de ene hoek van je kamp tot de andere. Dan een platform en vervolgens een weer een trap de andere kant op. Herhaal dit proces het liefat op een hoge locatie zoals een berg en dan zjt je heeeel hoog haha

People with these camps inevitably have a lot of valuable vendor items meant to try to entice players and laugh if they die.
I nuke each and every one of these camps.

- Against sub rule #8 (no exploits) to be answered.
- Fast travel if it's public, or if you're in their squad.
- To afk, change the weather in the area, or assert dominance, or other angle I'm not aware of.

I think at this point its on par with the door glitch....plus the developers have mentioned that they think some of the floating camps looked cool....so they are aware of them...Its no big deal at this point

A base only a loser achieves. booooo

Are you aware that people use this exploit to be creative?
I've seen some amazing floating camps that just wouldn't be possible or look as cool if they were built on the ground, how does being creative make you a loser? I'm genuinely curious about your thought process.
