3 things I do are... 1: always make skin clothing even if you're to the point of making wool and linen clothing because skin clothing will be worth quite a bit when the trader comes around. Instead of having to trade valuable weapons or tools, you can have a stock pile of skin clothing that no one's even wearing anymore to use as throw away "money". 2: When you're entire village has low morale, be sure to hit your fancy alarm horn when being attacked by raiders. This will make all of your people get in the fight and when they win it's a massive morale boost and an instant cure to their lil emo selves. 3: Always always always remove a diseased crop. Do not let it spread to the others. It's always best to throw away that one section of crop than to let it infect the rest and you loose the whole field.
Something I found useful to start, don't set up a hunting ground, rather, keep an eye on meat, when low, search for a few game, click on them, they'll get too it and generally with the right numbers. Don't over do the hunt either. The key is not to over work them.
I think that's about right. Honestly even over working for a hunt won't happen, but setting up hunting grounds will cause overwork because up to 5 people could be reserved as a task. Vs an attempted hunt that releases only what's needed to hunt perhaps only 3 people. This keep the work load lower.
This video summarized some very good ideas Additional tips: 1) if you are very early in the game and far from unlocking thratching, do not ever buy straw because it decays really fast. 2) early game: when using continous production in your crafter, try to set bone harpoons and all flint tools to 150% of population, they are worth a lot to traders. 3) if a trader has a low commission, buy as much as you can. If trader has a high commission, buy as little as possible. 4) look for huge flat land areas, and clear as many trees as possible to prepare for farming. 5) get your tech priorities correct. It is ok to go into the next era without finishing the current era research. But plan out everything. (Eg: plant lots of grain crops before unlocking thratching to get an abundant supply of straw)
When making work areas be sure to set limit higher because if you miss this, when you get to later stages in the game you’ll consume the resources as fast as they are collected and the workload will hover around 200% - 400%
Regarding the techs you can buy from the trader, I could never afford to buy a single one until I had a 150 people settlement and giant stockpiles of resources. The prices are kinda crazy if you don't have many animals and very modern tools to sell
I'm loving this game. However it would be more realistic if when more people arrive they come with new tech/knowledge. It's also a pitty that there are no atlatl. Buying knowledge from the trader is actually a cool thing. Once I noticed I started doing plus weapons and tool to trade them for faster knowledge. Probably arguably the best game of this type. For older ages, I recomend Ancestors... Where you evolve form an chimp like Ape (Ardipithecus) towards an Homo erectus. I would love more stuff about Paleolithic. There 's so much potential... different lithic technologies, nomadic needs, diferent species...
I was seriously wondering why the atlatl wasn't in the game. It was one of the most significant hunter/gatherer technologies of the ancient world. Maybe because its use wasn't super widespread around the world...
My tip or heads up is, tha AI freaks out after 110viligers. at least on PS4. My current situation -Workload 60% -143 villagers -60 sickles -40 meat in store -50 vegies in store All of a sudden, no one is farming, 80 villagers die of starvation.
SAME!!! Once I get to 110ish people, everything goes to shit. I don't even adjust things that much at that point expect maybe add one or two extra people to a work area. But nothing major. They just all of a sudden start dying. I can have over 100 meat and plenty of resources and then BAM! They dead! haha
during my first playthrough I messed up few things: 1) upgrading many buildings at once means you loose shelter and storage space, basically quick death 2) cancelling the upgrade process which leaves small pile of resources, not previous building level 3) having lots of livestock animals (70-80) without having enough straw which "grows" once a year trying to compensate by bulks of fields resulting in overproduction of wheats and filling storage with hundreds of decaying wheats 4) not having any leathers to bring monoliths in copper age
I don't think 3 should be a problem. Logic says that animals also eat wheat... My main concern is the AI... It sucks big time. I have lots of carts and animals to use them, yet the people INSIST in gathering stuff by hand and when they do, they don't fill the spaces... Jesus it gets to my bones. Worse, when the get the cart, THEY DON'T FILL IT...
Thanks for the information. but i came here to know , how to get straw ? everytime i need to buy straw and don't know from where i get that. NICE VIDEO, Thanks again.
@@KokoplaysMB for real. Now I got my new village alot 60 pop over 200 food and looks like shit is going well tryna prepare now for copper age first 5time I got this far lol
If you’re gonna say spoilers its kinda your job to say what could get spoiled. Is it progression? Anyone can see whats available later on through the tech tree, so i’d assume you don’t mean that. I just started yesterday and want to watch your video, but feel deterred at the first sentence being a warning about general spoilers.
People find spoilers in every little thing so I add that at the start of every video as a warning. Personally I don't think there's anything spoilery in here though.
I was doing AWESOME. Had WAY more food coming in than I ever even needed. Then all of a sudden my food stopped and I lost like 90% of my population. WTF?
@@KokoplaysMB I'm just saying, I never got a notification anything went wrong with the food supply. And it completely stopped replenishing with new food. On a dime.
This video - and I've seen other videos by you - will give you 15 min+ viewtime, 1+ like and 1+ Subscriber. You inspired me to finish Continental Dawn, starting after this video.
I believe the old one one will be slaughtered. If I remember correctly you can also set up how many of each animals you want and new animals that exceed that number get slaughtered.
I recommend setting some animals to 10 to 15 so new animal can be born and they won't be kill they you can select the old to kill like that you can have food and skin good luck also this works for me because I love to micro manage but as you know this game is not like and is kinda auto so this gives me something to do in winter. Good luck I hope this helped.
Yeah, Koko would become happy if more viewers told so, as is my experience with my mere 100 subscribers. It make it worth the HARD WORK and MONEY that go into making a gaming channel on RUclips. He barely earn anything is my guess, from ads and Google take most of all, and you need not only 1000 subscribers, but also people that view A LOT of time of the videos you put out, not to mention a FLAWLESS REPUTATION, that means NOT ONE ERROR, EVER! even before you can apply to even be CONSIDERED for a monetized channel. Unless it's clickbait garbage, but useful info like this, being fed to stone-faced viewers, these guys with thousands of subscribers really deserve what they have.

I have gone first for dog domestication. It give an advantage at hunt and for the defence of the village.
They are good bois!

from what I've seen, getting dogs should be after you've gotten the 3rd age tech because i think they scare the animals away tbh

@@Ic3Fr0St or when you're people are starving but you have 200-300 animals and a population of 200?
I’m struggling with my first experience of having a lot of livestock and a lot of fields and now a high work load..
A Nice well done vid with good tipps for beginners.
Thanks!
Another tip for hunting don't go after the young animals with the adult or elderly it will give time to reproduce once those animals get older
This is a good one to remember, thanks!
Thanks for the information. but i came here to know , how to get straw ? everytime i need to buy straw and don't know from where i get that. NICE VIDEO, Thanks again.
You get straw from grain bearing crops.
Plant the first 3 crops
Barley, Einhorn, Ekerton
(Maybe wrong spellings)
an easy way get straw you just search on google
@@yuki_jaya694 your comment is useless
You need the haystack to store straw
how about stuff that really matter? like workload?
Even at low or average it's still super expensive like 300
That defense tool.....would have helpedn2 days ago but no regrets...my new village is wrecking, everytime I fail I get a lil bit better
That's what makes gaming fun!
@@KokoplaysMB for real. Now I got my new village alot 60 pop over 200 food and looks like shit is going well tryna prepare now for copper age first 5time I got this far lol
I would advice that tanning should be achieved before going into mesolithic. You need leathers to make sleighs.

I got lucky and saw two mammoths swimming in the river next to my village so I quickly got everyone to go kill them lol so lucky for my first game
Oh wow, that's pretty lucky!
a game changer literally lmao thx so much
worked very well
Glad I could help!
Thank you, I'd been wondering where to see how many of a certain animal I'd killed...
Did anyone ever notice that its always day time in this game there is no day night cycle. It would have made this game much better just my opinion.
How can I change the position of the defence gate? Is showing it just one position. (Thanks)
isnt flint tools just the same as copper?like stats?
I was doing AWESOME. Had WAY more food coming in than I ever even needed. Then all of a sudden my food stopped and I lost like 90% of my population. WTF?

How to open the other era skills i only have paleolithic era skills?!😒
Progress through eras and you gonna get more stuff.

i keep getting a message. Some of your people have no warm clothing. I have 10 sets of clothing... how do i make them wear it?
as i know you put it out from storage and some people who have no wearing any cloth they will take it by self
Remember that there are clothes for warm weather and cold weather. Leather and linen clothes are for warm weather and skins are for cold weather.
dont overhunt the wildlife early on...if there is nothing left to repopulate u will have a hard time getting skins/meat off :D
Good idea!
they seem to randomly respawn in my game.
would be amazing game but over 2 years and said to be fixed camera issues i recommend stay clear of this game or anything made by this team. you can't even zoom out to get over all the dam hills. i cant even see half my very small village i built. should almost be listed as a 1st person rts.
