You really should look into the electric drill combined with waterwheels. The waterwheels put out exactly enough energy to run one electric drill per wheel and the drills are so much more effective in gathering the ressources. And I highly recommend to do the wind turbines instead of the solar pannels. They are cheaper and work day and night although you need more of them, because they only put out 1750 power each. Apart of all that, nice episode. like your series so far and the 7days wasteland series also. Have a good one.
Switched to wind turbines the other day and couldn't be happier. Definitely love using the water wheels for one off electric drills, if I have a group of 3-4 deep ores close by I setup the turbines instead so I don't have to clean out the waterwheels.
@@skyler5230 Nice to hear. I'm playing on prometheus and have about 7 Waterwheels right in front of my base, so I can empty them out without running far. And on a Mountain I made a windpark with about 20 turbines. looks really nice.
@@shadowsonge yes, thats the point of them. They are for the deep mining deposits and are a lot better than the biofuel ones temreki is using. If you lay them down and let the electric drills drill for about two or three ingame days, they will provide you with about 1000 units of the ore they are standing on.
Hi there, just poppin' to say thanks. I don't know exactly what, but between the snappy montages, the lovely music choices, your voice, the progress, the rpg dimension of your episodes or just the sheer amount of work you put in something makes me happy when you upload. So, tldr... THANK YOU. You manage to make me happy even at my worst when I watch your videos. I'm grateful I managed to catch your channel through some research for Darkness Fall on alpha 20. I'm looking up to you and think you deserve praise and applauses for your efforts. Again, thank you. Looking forward for whatever comes next.
I must say, I have binged this series for the last few days and I’m addicted to this game because of you! Keep up the content. You’re a brilliant streamer
My girlfriend say she loves you ❤️ she rather watch your streams than a series. Perfect pitched, fun and mellow enough to chill watching (I Reap the bonuses 🤣👌) Thank you 😁
That's alright. A lot of people forget solar panels don't work at night... or during a storm... or when it's cloudy. Unfortunately they're creating public policy.
G'day Tem. Just wanted to say how cool I thought ur mining montage was. Ur pick strikes matching the music beat was a great touch. Keep up the fantastic work bro!!
You should take that Mammoth head and place it on the outside of your building (home) where you wanted a window originally if it will fit. It would look amazing coming home to it. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! (By the way my wife and I love watching this series together! )
Instead of having a whole house expansion, create a massive workshop that looks like a garage. Also wanted to say you did an amazing job on the series and these videos. Love your content man.
I really enjoy your videos. They way you immerse yourself in your story lines is so much fun to watch. I even watched videos of games I would never play.
You won't find any exotics in caves until you do the mission. Its pretty close to the front of the list, down low, two deep, then they will spawn in caves etc. Use wind turbines, they'll give you 24/7 power. Do the missions for Ren, save the exotics. After the first couple of items in the workshop in each tree, you will need Ren AND exotics to buy them. Just do repeat missions for Ren instead. Also, you can buy/repair your workshop items by using the Orbital Transfer board. Its in the tech tree right by the mission board, I think you have to get it first. Also, unlock the antibiotic pill. It prevents pneumonia in caves, pop one before mining and you won't have to worry about the stamina hit.
I had a plan to do something similar to what you proposed with the glass. I am planning to use concrete half walls on the bottom, and glass half pieces on the top. I've done it with wood already, and it looks pretty good.
I feel your pain with having a pup chew chew your glasses. My pup did the same thing while I was passed out. I don't know how he got them but when I woke up they were on the floor and completely chewed up.
Temreki, just a suggestion if you ever want to clean up some of that water/electrical cables in your base. If you have foundations with a floor you can actually remove a foundation and create a tunnel underneath and then wire everything up from below and up the walls as needed. This should work well in the new area where you have alot of the electronic benches.
I like how you synched the mining pick noise with the music. Your video editing is top notch. I am still on the fence if I should buy this game or not. I read about the issue about doing missions, that it doesn't tell you everything you need to know, and you wind up wasting time, or having to read a wiki.
I just bought the game yesterday and made it to lvl 18 in about 7.5 hours. Its an incredible game and worth the 35ish on steam rn. Playing the "Missions" mode currently. I like that you can make money to spend for future expeditions to the more difficult locations. I would highly highly recommend. If you do buy maybe we can play and learn together. I'm not the best at fighting but I am also new to PC gaming.
Hello. I'm looking at you from Hungary. I like your series. I'll give you a good tip. you don't have to go to the station if you want to repair something in the workshop or bring up an exotic. you need an Orbital Exchange Interface, tier 2 stuff. with this you can send up exotics and bring down stuff from above. check how it works exactly.
My first thought with the solar panels, is your base is going to lose all power at night, since batteries are not a thing in this. (afaik) Loving the series!~
If you let the water wheel fill with only sponges, you won't need to clean it anymore. Also, untill batteries are added, solar is quite an unreliable source of power.
The bison cart will allow you to take all of the ore in one shot without getting over weight it is slow but does save time if you consider how many trips it takes to get all of it
Hey Tem, unprofessional opinion here, but I would suggest getting at least SOME Wind Turbines on the off-chance you want to have some things running through the night. Edit: Oh, and another high suggestion, one of the first workshop items you should get now that you've got easy access to Exotics, is a Deep Ore Vein Detector from the Workshop, it lets you cycle Ore types to track down Deep Ore Veins.
You're correct in that they take exotics but he's got an extractor on a relatively close exotic vein, so he'll be able to get it in no time. It's worth the purchase, hands down. The Deep Ore Detector you can make is still useful, but being able to single out particular deep ore veins by their ore is amazingly useful. @@shadowsonge
@kainnex1187 oh I wasn't arguing it being useful. I just wish you could search out exotic veins with it. I do love being able to find the new titanium and platinum veins.
@@shadowsonge OH! Yeah nah, if it could even find exotic veins that'd be a bit much. You can still find them, it just takes a bit more...involvement. And the intro scanner. Honestly Tem got pretty lucky with this 'seed', the nearest vein I have is like, practically on the South-West Desert entrance, and my base is like...almost a full days travel away from it on foot. Thank CHRIST I have a Moa to cut down travel time.
@kainnex1187 That's fair! Oh and you're not wrong on Tem's luck. I have one vein in the swamp, halfway across the map from my settlement. There are supposed to be 3 but I can only find one which doesn't produce anything anymore, and one red exotic vein I don't want. I have so many red exotic seeds.
@@GunsNerdsandSteel no worries your series is what caused me to buy the game and enjoy it. So if I find a tip that your not aware of I’ll be sure to pass it on
@@GunsNerdsandSteelalso you want to research wind turbines. There’s a video where they guy shows you how to make a turbine town which generates loads of power and requires no maintenance and unlike the solar panels they can produce power constantly
Im still wondering if they will ever allow you to tame a baby mammoth and mount the thing. It would be even cooler if they added pet amour so they could better help fight. Just started playing yesterday. Perhaps they already have all that.
I would love to play this game after seeing you started a playthrough there, but I am terribly angry that the DLCs for that game cost as much as the base game, adding things that could be in the basegame from the very beginning. But - at least I can enjoy watching you play it then - thats more than enough for my entertainment then :)
filled with spoiled plants and sponges. quits working when there are "50 items" but a sponge fills a single slot, so if all the slots are filled with sponges, then the water wheel will never reach "50 items"
Only 442 XP for killing the big worm wtf? I though you could XP farm like this pretty fast but I have yet to find a way to XP farm faster than collecting wood stone and fiber
@@GunsNerdsandSteel I say wind as once you've set it up that's it, Solar stop working when the sun sets and water requires constant cleaning. I've got a 21k power tree near my base that supplies everything I need.
@@GunsNerdsandSteel Windpower is great, works around the clock and doesn't require upkeep like the waterwheel. Downside is they don't generate as much power as solar per unit, and need a lot of space - the windturbines need to be about three foundation pieces apart to operate. A 3x3 foundation can fit four windturbines if you place them at the corners. I usually build a few windturbines to power the things I use all the time, like the material processor, water pumps and lights, while I hook up solar to the crafting machines.
The only one I have is the "New Frontiers" DLC and honestly, apart from a single trip to Prometheus for one episode (#4) I haven't even touched the DLC content. I think it's a complete game all by itself and if the Devs need to do a little fundraising to continue their work on this, I can support that.
You can buy the base game only and that should keep you occupied for quite a while. Buy the Styx and New Frontiers later when they are cheap in the sales as they are just new maps. The Outpost DLCs are basically sandbox mode so you don't really need them.
@@KaelRhain The base game gives you access to the Olympus map, then there's the Styx and New Frontiers expansion for Styx and Prometheus maps respectively. There are the 3 deco packs and 6 outposts. You can have a good time with the base game, if you feel like a slightly harder game then Styx is where you head to next followed by Prometheus. Deco packs are not essential. With the addition of open world, there's no real need for outposts.

I lost it when he said "My dog ate my glasses". Loving the series man!

The solar panels will be pretty great once the batteries are implemented :)
I hadn't even thought of looking at this game until you did this series. It's been a very entertaining series so far. :)
I come back to it every now and then, but each time I come back, I seem to play it more and more. Game has definitely improved over time
Same, this series makes me wanna play this game !

0:22 You wanted a bigger trophy so there you go😂. It's actually the size it should be. I wish the others were.
I need more of this than one episode a week my man!

I left a comment with a Steam link to a build I did for power using wind turbines... are those not allowed? It seems to have been deleted.
Happy Thanksgiving Tem! It was a pleasant surprise to see an upload this morning. I'm really enjoying this series!
You need to finish mission to unlock voxels with Exotics to made them able to spawn for you in caves
That flat rooftop area would make for a great rooftop garden.
the music with the mining was satisfying
I feel your pain with having a pup chew chew your glasses. My pup did the same thing while I was passed out. I don't know how he got them but when I woke up they were on the floor and completely chewed up.

I swear the devs have set up something that detects when you're going to expand your base and sends a storm to ruin your plans :)
I totally agree!

That concrete building looks like a German WW2 bunker
If u can. put the mammoth trophy outside as a warning for others.
Definitely. Even if he kept 1 block on the addition as concrete instead of glass and mounted it there. Imagine it with some up-lighting.
You should move the heads from above your fireplace and put the mammoth head there (up a little bit so it doesn't get in the way)
My first thought with the solar panels, is your base is going to lose all power at night, since batteries are not a thing in this. (afaik) Loving the series!~
Batteries are in development but yes solar seems a little useless when he like working through the night
My wife loves this game, Ive never played it but I have to say it's come on a lot since I last paid attention to it.
by the way water wheel still works fully if you have it storage full of sponges.
The space man no longer uses a rock and stick to do things
Plz upload more frequently, I have been waiting for it
If you let the water wheel fill with only sponges, you won't need to clean it anymore.
Also, untill batteries are added, solar is quite an unreliable source of power.
That mining beat, though! 😁
Btw, you can put one big item (radar/extractor) into your mount inventory
Mammoth vestige needs to go on outside of house
Busy episode! Gotta love the "elephant" vestige, it needs a much higher ceiling though. 😃
Gotta find room for that Mammoth trophy somewhere
The bison cart will allow you to take all of the ore in one shot without getting over weight it is slow but does save time if you consider how many trips it takes to get all of it
not if you are riding the ostrich thing over encumbered. That thing will make you run laps like NASCAR. MAKIN' A LEFT TUUUUUURN!!!!
No, no, that mastodon head is great.
Keep up the great content and everybody have a great Thanksgiving
Hey just a heads up; all worms are weak to obsidian weapons. Like big time. Bullets, bolts, arrows.
build a stone or cement structure around the thumper that way you set it and forget it
Sadly doesn't work like that
Icaus looks much better than it did last i looked. Might have to pick it up next time it is on sale.
Storytelling time… How did the dog get said glasses to eat them….?😂
The extractor let's me extract em... lol
I want MORE WASTELAND!! and someone to help me install it so I can play too. heh heh
7:48 Are skill points able to be reset in the top right corner?
To reset skill points requires a trip back to the station.
You need to make a big room just for trophies of all the animal kills lol
Plenty of time!
Build a small Barn.. opposite side of the property..

HAAA!!! How would meteors replenish nodes in caves?!! That's some game logic that's almost painful if that's the case.
I found a couple exotic nodes in caves, I did create the prospect after the update so I'm not sure if they will appear in existing saves.
They do, and they continue to reappear, without a thumper.
elephant would look good on the outside.
If you hold shift and L CTRL and then click an item you have lots of it moves all of that item like the iron ore
Oh thanks for the tip, I'll try to remember that one 👍

I know I'm repeating myself, but I really love your editing style!! Montages, voiceovers, transitions, all of it!
make the wind turbines to get power that way too
the mammoth should be on an exterior wall.... maybe
Wind power will give you more bang for your buck
Wind Turbines are the solution! =)
Omg wind turbines are the best source for electricity look up wind turbine tower they are zero maintenance and generates power constantly
Can you please put the wooly mammoth head back on the wall please? It looks great it adds character
maybe make trophy room for all trophies
put that elephant outside. over your front door
Wind is 👌for power
maye make a room for the trophy heads that big ike the elephant (MAMOTH) head or just make a trophy room for all the heads
40Fps during storm with 4090? :O The performance balance is that bad?
Why not put the Mammoth head outside of your house in the center would be grate.
