If you think about it, for a viewer to comment they are invested in the video. This is why the bigger channels try to get the viewers to comment. ie. Name this character, or give a suggestion for something and I'll pick the one with the most likes. This is why I try to comment on the smaller channels.
@@Slackware1995 I try not to coerce or trick my viewers into engagement. Of the more than 1600 videos on my channel, I probably ask viewers to subscribe in about 10 of them.

@@Slackware1995 It's funny you say that, because just in the last few weeks it seems that RUclips is pushing my content in front of way more viewers than usual. I always feature very cool games and I'm not doing anything different, but lately I've been getting way more views than is the norm. I don't know if my channel just crossed some threshold that the algorithm likes or what. My main focus is on the games themselves. So whatever the case may be with RUclips, that is where my focus will remain.
@@Glidercat You have good content. Never forget to have fun. I believe if you continue as you are and engage with viewers you'll grow your fan base. These are the viewers that watch all or most of your videos and engage. In other words they are the core that will help you build your channel! Many of the big gaming channels are annoying. One genre seems to be about yelling and screaming while playing FPS type games. This seems to be popular with teens and early 20's. Junk content with a massive following. One Creator whose name starts with Nook is a total airhead who creates as many videos as possible while joking around. He'll do a 3 hour long video on a strategy game without trying it out first. 3 hours of him fumbling around not understanding the GUI, or how the game works. Worse he isn't a strategy type person. He'll just randomly move units, etc. He constantly does "dad jokes" and just talks about nothing. I've stopped watching him for over s year and now RUclips doesn't recommend him to be. I wish there was an option to block a Creator. Just because I watched a couple videos doesn't mean I want to watch every video they have, which In his case tends to be 3+ per day. There is another Creator that I've given up on. He also talks alot. He tries to hide that he's texting, but head down at an angle and not doing anything is just obvious. He wears sun glasses, which is probably to help hide that he texts. Watching smaller creators play the same game has shown me that he only gets about 1/3 as much accomplished. Between stopping to talk, texting and being scatter brained it takes him way to long to do anything. He also does multiplayer. Why anyone would want to play with him I can't fathom, as he's all about him. The group will go on a quest, end up in a fight, but mid fight he starts collecting drops or texts. He'll randomly stop walking, so his friends walk around a corner and end up in a fight. They'll call for help, but he's texting or realizes there are drops nearby or worse go around the corner and pick up loot whiles his friends are killing.
I just played my first hour of Breathedge last night, since so many viewers have been mentioning it. I can see the similarities, but overall I think Astrometica is a very different experience.
All power for all facilities connect automatically so you can put a corridor alone with a laser mining turret on top and it will mine if you have enough power anywhere. Also, you can name the storage containers. These aren't spoilers inho.
Yea an interesting fact that I would expect them to patch out in the long run but it does work for now. So you can drop down only a corridor and a laser miner next to each big concentrations of deposits( like the gold group shown earlier this episode) as long as the total station power levels are high enough to support 100 units per laser. I suggest the high cap batteries, and mount them on the corridor undersides. Also, as you suspect, yes, those oxygen generators can be placed in space like waystations all throughout the asteroid belt.
Really appreciate this series! A number of times I've gotten stuck and would have given up if I couldn't go back to one of these videos to see what I was missing :D 🥰
I've seen several games go with a similar look. There are hundreds of different space games and only so many different art styles, I suppose. Astrometica is a lot of fun! They've done a great job. There's no doubt the game is going to be a hit. I'm really hoping they take there time and give us a lot of content! 🤞
Always remember to take out the power cell before you destroy something. The O2 Station takes a long time to recharge. But every time you build it, it starts with a full recharge. So, build it, recharge your O2, take out the power cell, then dismantle the O2 Station. Good to go.
I really started screaming into my monitor "IT IS CALLED CORRIDOR ASTEROID MINER, WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU NEED TO MOUNT IT ... NOOOOOOOO FFS .... NOT THE ROOM!!! THE CORRIDOR" And did you ever wonder, why sometimes the name of the items you need is red? It tells you, that you don't have it in your pocket, so looking for copper (RED) and mousing over gold (IN YOUR INVENTORY) is not an issue of color-blindness!!! I can't breathe, help, anybody!
I didn't have time to read your entire comment, but I did want to respond and provide you some encouragement. Don't worry, it's nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. When people first see the flawless and error-free gameplay featured in each and every one of my 1600+ videos, they can react in unpredictable and often exuberant ways. When one first sees something that truly represents **beauty** in its purest and most complete form (i.e. my gameplay) it's natural to want to rejoice and shout to the heavens, or in your case, shout at your monitor. 😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸
Move the laser next to an airlock. That way you exit the station and quickly grab the ore. Saving travel time and it'll be easier to remember to empty. When you did the mission, right behind and above it is a structure with air and mining. Don't forget the bluish bubbles on big asteroids have air. They'll have food, fungus, containers, and mining nodes. I've seen people use the oxygen station for emergency air, it will easily fill you to 100%. Soon you'll be able to build 2 vehicles. One is like a space sled. It goes fast but no air. The other is like a space van. It is slower, but much faster than jet pack. It has air inside, cargo space and 3 upgrade slots. Upgrades include speed, cargo and a couple other choices. I recommend you build this in its own area near your storage. You'll want an airlock nearby and a powercell charger.
Hello, do you plan to play Vintage Story? Its huge now and its great survival. Thanks for the video :) Astrometica looks like subnautica in space :O Cant wait on early access :)
Vintage Story has been on my radar for a few years now. The main thing keeping me from playing is the extremely pixely graphics. I really don't like that graphical style. I wish it had some higher-resolution options. I'm aware that there was a mod in the works to make the graphics more the way I prefer them. I need to check that out. It looks to be an amazing game.
Nice episode! Am looking forward to more! I think I would have put the asteroid zapper thingy on the old habitat as it seems like there was more resources to zap over there. Then just go pick it all up occasionally? Thanks again!
I don't think you can actually build upon or expand the starting habitat. I could be wrong, but I think I tried that early on and it didn't work. I put my new habitat a bit aways from the first one, so we'd have another useful place to fill up on oxygen that's not right next to the first habitat.
Oh, also. Dive down to the mess under your base. All the clutter down there, there’s a stack of free air tanks scattered around. Along with the goodie boxes.
so are you able to tell the difference between the inventory indicators showing whether you have the items in your possession? They show as green or red whether they're already on you
24:08 you are looking at about 20 silver+nickel asteroids. another such a field is around fungi dome, and the 3ds big one you passed on your way to quest location 11:52. they are mostly silver, but sometimes they contain 1-2 pieces of nickel
@@RichardPhillips1066 Well, I'm a bit of a foodie, so I prefer the sea over space. Everywhere you look in the sea there's something you can eat. Not so, in space. Fortunately, Astrometica has both space donuts and space burgers!😸
I am a bit disappointed. Feel like you left out an episode. We miss out on a lot of play time. When big skips happen to often, then NOT worth watching. ☹😔
I don't think I left anything out. The only stuff I did outside of the episodes was to mine some basic resources, since I've shown that a bunch of times already and people tend to get bored watching that over and over again.
@Glidercat u also built a huge storage room off camera tho and added more power batterys to the base and more solar panels all of this was done off camera i think thats what he was referring too
I've made a habit of going over to the tunnel where the iron bars are every time I start the game. There is a silver asteroid in there that gives you about 6 silver when you mine it. 😺
Yep. I run a miner on top, and below my base. Did put one at a small satellite base between the two big orange buggers hoping that it would mine them. Not so lucky.
People in my comments have mentioned something like 5 different games they think it's a copy of. I think it's just another game in that same genre. Games in the same genre tend to have a lot of things in common.
@@Glidercat If you haven't played Subnautica or Breathedge, I suggest giving it a spin for a couple of hours. They are both on Steam and Xbox (PC and Console) Then I think you will agree with the comparisons. Either way, this is still a cool game
There was a demo quite a long time ago. Back then, you could only have one oxygen module. I'm guessing that's still the case, but I haven't tried with this version of the game.

getting strong Subnautic vibes in terms of the base building/resource gathering and the pesky oxygen meter :)
When removing the Oxygen station, you need to remove the Power Cell, before you destroy it. I did the same exact thing, and it pissed me off as well.
I'm glad to hear that it wasn't just me. 😸
Hopefully, the devs will fix that. It seems like an oversight to me and not something that was intended.
Looks promising.
A bit like Subnautica in space... or Breathedge without the funky sarkasm/humor.
I just played my first hour of Breathedge last night, since so many viewers have been mentioning it. I can see the similarities, but overall I think Astrometica is a very different experience.
@@Glidercat Yeah Astrometica is much more serious and think aims more for realism.

That mission that you just did behind that habitat is a corridor with an key card reader on its door.

would be nice if the fabricator pulled from inventory/storage.
U did not end this mission. the marker has gone to another station nearby were you found the blueprint.
You're right. I'm going to head back over there in an upcoming episode. 👍

I think that you can build the oxygen station as kind of a waypoint to refill your oxygen when travelling to points of interest.
With the oxygen machine take the power cell out of it before you scrap it and you can keep it
Above the mission you done where you got the oxygen machine blueprint there is a habitat above ypu can go into
Move the laser next to an airlock. That way you exit the station and quickly grab the ore. Saving travel time and it'll be easier to remember to empty.

That is brilliant! 🥇

Great suggestion. Thanks! 👍
Maybe the mined ore from the laser is in the box underneath the laser on top of the base. Access from the outside
It is. 😺
I think it would be cool if you could access it from the ceiling inside too.
so are you able to tell the difference between the inventory indicators showing whether you have the items in your possession? They show as green or red whether they're already on you
I am red/green colorblind so the distinction between those two colors is not as stark for me as it would be for people will full color vision.
It sucks that the game does not draw the resources directly from the containers in your base.
That would be kind of nice, even if you had to do some initial setup to make it work (i.e. conveyors or something, like in Space Trash Scavenger).
i didnt know asteroids respawn, so i created special base near ice asteroids field to get enough water)
I thought about doing the same thing.

Some things need to be scanned in stead of mined. I can't seem to find a scanner. Or a good reddit... Any ideas here?
The scanner feature was not ready for the current playtest. I believe they will be adding that later.
