Foxhole comes with different infrastructures which contribute to improving your fighting and survival chances in the game. Some are for strengthening the defenses around the base camp, while some provide other significant roles for the betterment of the team.
To familiarize and give you some pointers on what should be looked out for when constructing in Foxhole, here’s a brief guide.
Building Guide for Foxhole
When in a war, aside from artillery for offense, what should also be prioritized is the fortification of defense. In Foxhole, several pillboxes are available for building, designed to hinder possible enemy attacks; ultimately defend the base.
First, is the Rifle Pillbox which is an automated anti-infantry garrison with a quite significant range. In any case, in building the rifle pillbox, its distance from the base should always be within its range of influence, or else, it will decay; in other words, would not operate.
The Machine Gun Pillbox has a distance from the base to take into account when building, however, it should be closer. And unlike the first one, it has a different attack range shape. It also has the ability to take down light-armored vehicles. On top of that, you could also enter the garrison and support the AI in attacking the enemies.
Last of the pillboxes Anti-Tank Pillbox which you can also enter. It has a 360-degree firing range and true to its name, has the ability to take down those heavily-armored tanks.
Other Auxiliary Buildings
When talking about defense, barricades are at the top of the list. But, in this case, these barricades are more addressed as walls. Walls in Foxhole could be upgraded up to tier-3 which is a concrete one.
Also, walls could be extended by attaching one wall to another wall, widening the defended area.
Although they might sound not too appealing, signposts are important structures in Foxhole because it helps you communicate with other people, particularly with your allies, when you are not around. You can leave messages, requests, and commands, through the signposts.
To keep you and other soldiers from being cold during wars in the midst of winter, it would be wise to build a firepit. All you have to do is use diesel to make fire out of the fire pit.
Lastly, you can also build a field hospital where severely injured soldiers are admitted and treated.
Constructible Vehicles
One of the buildable in Foxhole that is used for mobility is the motorboat. It should just be noted that it should be built on a shore. Once built, you can ride it and travel through the beach.
Following the motorboat are the construction vehicles and cranes. These are used for building, rebuilding, and upgrading some large structures, and for lifting heavy and movable things. As a reminder, these two should always b built very near friendly bases or landing ships.
