Doggo, what I love about this game is how it doesn't demand efficiency, it just makes it... satisfying. I get frustrated by the immense amount I need to make, close the game, and catch myself imagining my next setup. It's the first time I'm watching someone play a game that I've basically completed and it just goes to show how good your content is. I especially love it when your commentary feels natural and not necessarily comical. Thank you so much
40:36 "Even these are running so smoothly! You can tell, look how much they're backed up there..." my brother in christ we play Satisfactory VERY differently glad to see you enjoying the game!
Lmao, I found it killer when it started happened like that! I know it wasn't the typical way most play, but I definitely found enjoyment the way I did things :P
Tip, Higher level belts don't increase the speed of your factories, ie 60 parts/min is 60 per minute, weather going down a fast belt or slow belt. A faster belt lets you carry more item per minute, so if a miner, or constructor is pushing out 45 parts/min, a mark 1 belt is all you need, since it can carry up to 60/min. But if your miner is doing 80 parts per minute, you will need a mark 2 belt, which can push up to 120/min, otherwise the most you'll be able to push through is 60. Its the same concept with pipes. Throughput is a measurement of how much, not how fast.
Looks like all the belts going to the coal power plants are mk1 which has a 60 per min capacity. Each coal generator needs 15 so an mk1 belt can only supply four generators. That power graph was off the charts spiky! Its supposed to be flat on the generation side, dark grey line.
This game takes a lot of brain power but its my most played game on steam. My first playthrough I got about 13 hours into until I gave up after not figuring out water and things were very poorly organized so I starded a new second playthrough which I got all the way into nuclear power after about 100 hours but I didnt build on foundations and I didnt use the per miniute ratios to balance things leading to bery slow production with the advanced parts until i started a third playthrough where I balanced the per miniute ratios and made use of foundations to build an actual indoor factory which made getting around way easier as everything was so much more compact and was easy to hey around. I have around 170 hours in that playthrough and Ive completed all the teirs and automated pretty much everything. Because I kept things super organized and balanced the ratios I got a ton of efficiency and was able to make parts super dast so you dont have to really wait around at all you just build more machines since its so much easier to build them. For you Id honestly reccomend starting over again and 1: build on foundations in a factory structure, exept with multiple floors, 2: make use of splitters and mergers to balance the per miniute ratios to make sure each machine is getting the exact amount of which item it needs, this takes a lot of math and large scale a lot of people use spreadsheets when working with complicated parts, and you akso need to make sure tour belts are capable of providing the amount of materials a machine/ assembly line needs.and 3: maybe go on youtube and see how expirienced players play the game, how they build, how they manage power, how they make use of transport methods like trucks and trains, stuff like that. And 4: is something gets confuzing, dont give up, youll find your way through eventually. Also thank you for making this video, I really enjoyed it and Im curious how a new player plays the game because Ive kind of frogot how I played when I was new.
Man, you really poured your heart and soul into this! It's always so interesting to learn how experienced players play the game and get the most efficiency out of everything, I can't say I'll become the best or learn the most proper way to do things, but I will try building a HUGE factory with different floors so everything get's more organized and for that I will look something up. When I was playing the game I found myself leaning more towards Lets Game it Out type of chaotic playstyle, but realized I still needed to understand and really learn how each piece worked. Especially power, that was a whole other thing I just got lucky on I felt. So many people trying to explain that I was using too much on a single coal power setup. One thing I do wanna say, even if it never becomes content you should still record your first half of any new game you play so you can go back and see how far you've come! I love being able to use the video's I made as a way to document my progress and truly see the progression from day 1 until I stop playing them game :P
Man, I loved how much fun you had when playing and honestly for a new player you surprised me with some things that you did. That being said if building stairs and foundations press R in order to use zoop (this allows for mutiple placments at once, up to 10 at a time), read how much items your making and coordinate your belts to it, and lastly research the MAM (IT HELPS). Honestly you did better than I did on my first play through and I'm sure if you were to retry this amazing game you will make it past the begging of the game in under 100 days. (P.s. people consider oil to be the start of mid game)
I have to say thank you SO much for this comment, both for enjoying it but for also giving me quite a few tips and ways to improve my stuff! I'm definitely going to build a base when I jump back into the game and I will for sure get more researched in the MAM. I'm excited to try it out again :D
oh the good old spaghetti monsters. if you have the patience for it, I suggest placing everything on platforms. helps keep things organized + it feels so good to look at the finished product
You actually don’t need that many power poles. When you branch of of Mk1 power poles you can branch up to 4 ways. Power poles just transfer power, you dont need to have that many of them to every machine just manifold them like belts. Also in the power graph you have Production: that’s how much power your generators are making. Consumption: how much power are your machines consuming right now. Max consumption: how much can theoretically be consumed (if everything is running), Capacity: max power you are able to generate (sometimes Cole generators don’t work at full capacity and generate only needed power. Overall you have made great progress when i look back I wasn’t even that far at that time (now i have over 500 hours, its an awesome game, but very time consuming co be careful and DONT RUSH THE SPACE ELEVATOR!!!
I loved all the helps and understanding with how the power stats worked, but the big mistake I made that hit me immediately was rushing the elevator. Not that it was my focus, but I did push myself as a way to set my next goal for the video. I now know it's all about patience, making things work and trying to understand each base build or area to the most efficiency. The only reason I knew more then I should've here was watching my friends at the time when I just built my little portable miner mayhem, haha. Thanks again for giving some great perspective!
This game is by far my favorite ever! I love watching how people overcome the challenges of the early game, and you were no disappointment lol. Amazing video!
Thank you so much for the kind words man! It's been either people loving the newbie experience or ways I could've made the video more enjoying for ppl haha
That really makes me so happy to hear. I love playing a game for the first time and being accepted with open arms into the community and those who play it on the daily!
For frame rates sake in later game if you intend to make a 200 days, a good idea would be to make smaller factories slightly spread out on the map that go more vertical than horizontal and focus on making 2-3 items/factory would be a good idea, and then having a storage hub for your own persoanl use and sinking, as well transport between factories via train/drone. (Trucks work too but their mapping is still rather finicky and annoying to deal with but may make good content lol) Sincerely, A Satisfactory player with a really bad laptop
Oh! Another frame rate saver is trying to make production lines with less buildings. But thats harder to do until down the line. But still somthin' to keep in mind if that's a worry
I truly appreciate the kind words and really helpful advice. Didn't realize how important it was to mess around with buildings and just things to keep everything more organized Also love the little PS message, haha
loved this video! this brought back so many memories. one thing to remember about this game. there isnt really a "right" way to do something. there is only efficient and not. and even if you are not efficient, you can still have tons of fun. if you watch 10 people play, you will get 10 different styles. one tip..... use foundations with your factories. it helps so much to keep things organized!
Foundations and continue to have fun with it, I love the advice man! It makes complete sense that every play style will be different. More then that, but having fun doesn't have to be a good or bad way of playing the game
Doggo I always love watching new players play Satisfactory and slowly become addicted to its game play, I remember building my first Space Elevator.. I was in Awe haha
This game was definitely new territory for me. So much stuff I had to learn when it came to managing all the belts, drills and the power grid itself. I hope at some point I get to ride that elevator too haha
I love to watch someone totally new to factory games to discover Satisfactory. This game will come out Sep 10 and even in Early Access it was a masterpiece. You can't really play Satisfactory wrong. You can shape this world to your desire. Once you figure out how to use the foundations to make an even ground for your factories and start taking numbers in this game a bit more serious, you can challenge yourself to become more effective and efficient over and over. There are videos of Satisfactory Worlds here on RUclips that leave you stunned by creativity, efficiency, or both. The beauty of this game does not only come from the automation part though. There are pieces of decoration and factory building in the shop (no micro transactions, just ingame tickets) that enable you to make real art! I don't wanna go into trains with tracks that transport enery, or drones or nuclear power... you get it. I have 2200+ hours in this game and I'm still hyped for the 1.0 release in Sep 2024! (Oh, and yes: You need breaks from Satisfactory and it's normal for things to feel like chores (you did that factory mess by yourself, right? :D ). But there is always a time to go back and enjoy progress and exploration.)
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel oh I mean both things 100%. I absolutely had the same struggle at first like how am I supposed to connect all these things with four wires and the result is an absolute birds nest of crisscrossing power lines. And I did enjoy the video
I'm so glad you were in the same boat as me, haha. I probably do have to pay a lot more attention to the power lines and the generators, but I'm more chaotic/chaotic
Hey man, I should be thanking you a million times over for that! It's been a split where I either do too many wrong things or people have nostalgia from when they played. You're the best Swoop :D
Having 750 hours in the game myself, its nice to see such a genuine first experience. I was lucky enough to get into the game a little behind a couple of my friends and played in a world with them in my first playthrough. Learned coal power via three of us hitting our heads against it, and then took on my own world which was far from organized and made it all the way to alluminium. I have yet to beat the game cuz the later half of the game can get exhausting with all the fluids and byproducts, but is still mad satisfying to get working and I am hoping to finish out a run by 1.0 release.
Doggo. Always looking forward to your gameplay videos. Your adventures on planets and oceans all around galaxies is definitely a delight to watch. Thank you and please, keep'em coming.
I am not sure if it is needed, but I will say it anyway: Every machine have an input. For most it is depends for the recipe, but power is the most simple. It just needs a set number of coal and water each minute, to add set amount of power into the system. Miners, are the same as a generators, but backwards - if you give them power, they will produce the set amount of resource. Conveyer of each level, have a speed. So in any connected system if all numbers are equal - Amount produced by miners, speed of the conveyors and amount consumed by the generators, it will work. In your setup, it seems that conveyors are way too slow, and all system runs out of coal. last one: The power is extremely simple - production is number of power you currently have. And consumption is amount currently used (Between all machine connected to the power poll you checking it from). If you ever need more power then you have - the system will break and you will need to pull the lever to reactivate it. Of course if you have not added more power production, it will fail again soon.
I NEED a part 2 (200 days)!!! I absolutely love satisfactory and i found it really funny how you experience it for yourself for the first time! 😅 Go big doggo!
Great video as always man really enjoyed this one. Sadly i havent been able to watch them as much recently and catch the streams due to studying for my exam on thursday, but this was a great video nicely done
Ayeee, Culky! I'm sorry to hear about being busy with exams and such, but it does bring a big smile to my face to see you again after all this time! Feels like forever. I hope you've been kicking the prof's butt!
that doggo is so cute :) this game is a lot of fun.... oh and dunno if someone already said it but when your using the manual crafting bench you can press space bar once and it will keep crafting the item till you run out of materials, you dont need to hold down the button or keep pressing it over and over. Really enjoyed the video !
1. Screws are the bane of my existence in this game. I will go out of my way to find alternate recipes to eliminate them ASAP. 2. hearing you call them "nails" every single time hurts my brain. Love the channel. Also, Alternate Steel Ingots is an absolute essential alt recipe too.
Screws were definitely quite the bunch to handle, but every time I found myself saying nails in the edits, it even drove me insane haha. I have a not so great habit with calling things something else because I forget what they are in the moment. Steel is also important, duly noted!
It's wild to watch different perpectives on games... I thought I do little reading for games. I'm pretty sure you had 120 belts on coal and were trying to run +120 on it...
As for suggestions, here are some that I haven't seen in the comments yet. Definitely poke about those crash sites more, the reward is worth the time spent hunting them down if you get lucky. Also, play with the MAM and look for resources you don't see in the HUB. Most ores you don't have yet are not in the HUB but must be found and researched in the MAM and will give you a whole lot of cool new toys, including all remaining weapon upgrades. If the floor and plants are pink/red, death is everywhere so be careful. Lizard doggos like berries. Press C while running, then jump during that and see what happens. Don't be afraid to tear down an old factory and rebuild it from the ground up. The awesome sink and shop are your friend, especially once you start working with oil. If you are stuck waiting, build a factory or explore the world, time will fly by. Fluid can always go up as far as it has already gone down, but needs help going up any further than that. Overclocking miners and water extractors is the best use for power slugs, other uses simply save space, but there are finite nodes and space upon the water so its worth the slugs. A fully overclocked water extractor fills a normal pipe to its max throughput. See what happens when you fire hypertubes into hypertubes, fastest way to fly. Find mycellia, they make a great earlygame mobility tool. Putting multiple item types on the same belt is gonna start to be tempting... don't do it. Have fun, and don't stress about perfection, the game is built so you can play it any way you like really, all of these are suggestions and do not need to be heeded. I hope to see your adventure continue.
Great video! you seemed like you fun. cant wait to see what you do with the oil! also it might be helpful with power issue is that you and underclock some of your machines, your machines will stop and start if it has too littles materials but if you underclock them. 1, it takes less power and 2, your power usages will stabilize so you will break power less often with HIGH peaks in power. Also power storages are always useful to help when you go too high in your power [power spikes]. I did see someone already commented about the mk 1 belts, it isn't just speed its how many items it will carry in 1 minute, aka mk 1 belts will only carry 60 items per min. this game has so much maths, so remember to always double check your work lol I have missed many MK 1, more so if your having issues with power or not feeding your machines. here is more information about your power graph. **Consumption** Power are ARE currently using. **Max Consumption** Power you WOULD be using if all your machines were all on, [max power demand] aka some might be idle or turned off. **Production** The power you are CURRENTLY making. if this line isn't straight then your power production is turning ON and OFF meaning it needs more materials [coal gen coal/water ] to function at 100%. ALSO machines have a % so you can see if they are struggling. **Capacity** The power you can make if everything is running correctly, (also biomass burners kick in when needed), To prevent high spikes you want to keep an eye on that MAX cons line. hope to this all helps, hope to see 100 more days :)
Watching this in Japan (holiday) right now. Saw this pop up and was really disappointed cause I had time for one 20ish minute video at the time max. I now finally have more free time and you KNOW I'm making sure to watch this.
I've only played a very little bit of this game and thought it was really cool. Didn't know it gets so complicated later with all the power lines and advanced materials. ^_^; Dunno if I would have the patience for all that. Lol. But still a great video. I love your 100 Days series. :3
I'm sure you'd enjoy the later on building and crafting, but it definitely takes some trial and error haha. Thank you so much for enjoying my stuff Tabby
ah yes Satisfactory one of my favorite automation games now here is a mindblow detail you can tap space while making stuff to not require a paperweight
This video was funny but also painful to watch. 1) Mk. is an abbreviation for Mark. So when talking about belts or miners, it is Mark 1 belt, Mark 2 Belt, Mark 2 Miner, Etc. Mark is used to denote a generation or revision of something. 2) Pay attention to parts per minute of production. Your coal plants kept failing because you didn't supply enough coal. You figured this out eventually, but read what the machine is going to consume and then build according to how fast you can deliver. If a coal plant takes 15 coal per minute and your fastest belt is 120, you can support 8 coal plants assuming your miner is keeping up with 120 per minute. The visual representation of spacing on the belt doesn't matter as much as the actual math. 3) The in game search button (default is n) has a built in calculator. If you enter 120/15, it will give you the answer so you don't need to do the math in your head or on your phone.
Sorry that it wasn't as fun to watch this time. This game especially was harder for me and a whole bunch of learning I was honestly afraid of. Truth be told I played it with a bunch of friends who did the building and setting up the base properly. Definitely a different take, good/bad, this is how my mind worked. No excuses though, I hear you on the stuff that was hard to watch and I'll try and pay attention more when it comes to things right in front of my face. It's no secret that I don't enjoy reading so much in games, but something I do have to work on. With all that said, thanks for the advice on stuff that could've helped!
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel Maybe I was a little hard on ya at the time. I did watch your whole video though and did enjoy it. Satisfactory is one of my favorite games and I can't wait for 1.0 to launch.
You're completely fine! It's more so just real and raw criticism! If you just left off with it was painful to watch and that's it I would've felt indifferent haha I'm always open to how people feel and what I could do in making things feel or even just sound better
You should try making manafolds and all the machines tell you how much you need a minute so you can plan accordingly with the correct convyer belts. Mk 1 does 60 mk2 does 120 mk3 does 270 and mk4 does 480 per minute. If you have a slower one in a faster line it will bottleneck the amount of resources coming through. And lastly overclocking takes exponentially more power the more you try to produce with it. Goodluck mate amazing video. 👍 Edit: lizard doggos are tamed with berrys. DOGGO
Great video. Though I found my self screaming at the screen. So many things are left for you to discover. Such as base building, transport of resources via trucks, trains and drones. If you do another 100 days, try building a starter base. Produce only up to tier 3 items and build a storage area where all the items are stored. Try some compact builds around miners. 6X6 foundations and scale up to produce an item all within that 6x6 footprint.
I hope you'll give me another chance, haha! I plan on using this comment actually as a kind of guide to and from finishing up the last few milestones. I just hope it's an easier learning curb lol
Amazing video. u play some of my favourite games on your channel like subnautica and satisfactory (this game) i saw you beat subnautica nad i would love to see you max this game too. please do a part 2, there is so much more to unlock and have fun with.
I'm super glad you've enjoyed the games I've played so far Sizzy! I definitely plan to finish up Satisfactoy here and see what other crazy things I can come up with :D
Doggo, love this game 🎉 The coal setup nightmare is giving me bad flashbacks. Had so much trouble trying to min max it. At day 67-69 now. I'm hoping for a 200 days episode later 😂
Lmao, depressed was close, but I think it's been long enough to jump back in. I just wasn't used to trying to farm/build all the while using my brain to figure out some wacky stuff
one water pump per 2 coal generators and make sure your belts are fast enough to move the coal and careful with over clocking cause it using a lot more power
Cool Man! I Love Satisfactory! You inspired me to try to make a 100 days raft video with my friend, but i am now realizing that the editing and scripting is insane work, do you have any tips?
Aye, that's fantastic to hear man! That's also the harder parts for the majority of people. For editing and just the scripts/voice-overs alone I'd say do it in portions or after each session so it doesn't become too much. I realized myself that leaving 100 days to edit, 100 days to right script for and doing voice over with a whole bunch of extra footage became too much. I'm slowly working towards playing/recording the game, and then editing it down the same day so it doesn't feel like too much
Just wanted to thank you for making this vid. I found your channel because of it and I've been having a blast going through your back catalogue. Though, I also kinda hate you for doing this vid. Because I'm trying to wait until 1.0 before playing Satisfactory again and watching you play it made it really hard to keep to that plan 😉
Awh, well first off I'm happy you've enjoyed the stuff I've done so far and welcome to the channel! I also feel you on waiting for 1.0 because they finally released that it'll go full release this year and that's huge :P
NGL, I have 51 hours into the game, and I've unlocked everything up to stage 8, and I have barely used foundations. I have a half dozen resource extraction areas with conveyor belts going across the map to my hub which is surrounded by a spaghetti of conveyor belts and constructors.
Did you finally figure out, a) how to upgrade buildings? seeing you rip the miner down and then the belts made me cry. b) what berries are and what they're used for?
Yes to both!! By the end I was kicking myself for how easy it was to just replace on top of things, and then berries and the real use they have after finding the research stuff ;o No idea most things in the game had so much depth to them
Hey great video, i have played this game for over 650 hours but got burnt out because i couldn’t get a factory to work where all my previous did work fine eventually. I was at tier 7 i believe. I didn’t see you zooping or running and sliding, do you know how to do it or didn’t you record it in the video ? All those portable miners looked really funny btw.
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel Crazy after 100 days! But that’s all in your favour so that you can now even have more fun while running and building. There are numerous videos on zooping on youtube. In short you can lay down 10 foundations in a row instead of one by one, in all directions
Omg, even just laying down more then one piece at a time is a life savor haha. I will say, looking up video's for help instead of spoilers really does the trick!
"Using my phone as a paperweight", "biomass burners for unlimited power"
My nostalgia is off the charts, right now. Great video!
Didn't know so many others would have the similar playthrough!!

This game is by far my favorite ever! I love watching how people overcome the challenges of the early game, and you were no disappointment lol. Amazing video!
Thank you so much for the kind words man! It's been either people loving the newbie experience or ways I could've made the video more enjoying for ppl haha
Having over 500 hours and a mostly completed game, this brings me back. Thanks for the great video!
Thank you for enjoying video and the way my brain worked! Glad I was able to throw a bit of nostalgia back at people :D
I should be working right now, but RayofPanda just dropped!
Haha, please be careful at work man!
I recently went back to Satisfactory myself and learned that you can hit the space bar and it'll continuously craft, no phone needed 😅
Lmao, my phone saved my life for so many hours while needed to pee or take a break :P
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel You can simply hit the spacebar once and then go to bed. NO PHONE NEEDED.
Haha i wish i knew that before spending many hours using my phone as a paperweight
Nice! just one thing: The official game release is going to be sometimes this year so don't forget to check it out
Oh, I definitely won't! I want to beat what the game has so far before the release too
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel then you have to hurry up xd. Release in 2 months ^^
The phone as paperweight is mandatory for a first run, absolutely classic.
I was actually so happy to hear how nostalgia and just normal it was to do that as a first timer haha
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel in case you haven’t figured it out yet, you can tap spacebar once instead of having to spam your mouse
Bro I love seeing new players enjoy this game as much as I do. Keep up the good work man
That really makes me so happy to hear. I love playing a game for the first time and being accepted with open arms into the community and those who play it on the daily!
Great video,I’ve been playing it for a while now so it is great to see such a fresh new play through of it ,especially in such a high quality channel
It means so much to me that you enjoyed the video, Craig. Thanks so much buddy!
For frame rates sake in later game if you intend to make a 200 days, a good idea would be to make smaller factories slightly spread out on the map that go more vertical than horizontal and focus on making 2-3 items/factory would be a good idea, and then having a storage hub for your own persoanl use and sinking, as well transport between factories via train/drone. (Trucks work too but their mapping is still rather finicky and annoying to deal with but may make good content lol)
Sincerely,
A Satisfactory player with a really bad laptop
Oh! Another frame rate saver is trying to make production lines with less buildings. But thats harder to do until down the line. But still somthin' to keep in mind if that's a worry
I truly appreciate the kind words and really helpful advice. Didn't realize how important it was to mess around with buildings and just things to keep everything more organized
Also love the little PS message, haha
loved this video! this brought back so many memories. one thing to remember about this game. there isnt really a "right" way to do something. there is only efficient and not. and even if you are not efficient, you can still have tons of fun. if you watch 10 people play, you will get 10 different styles.
one tip..... use foundations with your factories. it helps so much to keep things organized!
Foundations and continue to have fun with it, I love the advice man! It makes complete sense that every play style will be different. More then that, but having fun doesn't have to be a good or bad way of playing the game
14:06 IM IN THE SAME AREA AS U ARE, THE COPPER IN THE BACK, THE 5 IRON DEPOSITS EVERYTHING
Great minds think alike!
Love the Doggo's
They're the absolute best :D
Doggo
I always love watching new players play Satisfactory and slowly become addicted to its game play, I remember building my first Space Elevator.. I was in Awe haha
This game was definitely new territory for me. So much stuff I had to learn when it came to managing all the belts, drills and the power grid itself. I hope at some point I get to ride that elevator too haha
I love to watch someone totally new to factory games to discover Satisfactory. This game will come out Sep 10 and even in Early Access it was a masterpiece.
You can't really play Satisfactory wrong. You can shape this world to your desire. Once you figure out how to use the foundations to make an even ground for your factories and start taking numbers in this game a bit more serious, you can challenge yourself to become more effective and efficient over and over.
There are videos of Satisfactory Worlds here on RUclips that leave you stunned by creativity, efficiency, or both. The beauty of this game does not only come from the automation part though. There are pieces of decoration and factory building in the shop (no micro transactions, just ingame tickets) that enable you to make real art!
I don't wanna go into trains with tracks that transport enery, or drones or nuclear power... you get it.
I have 2200+ hours in this game and I'm still hyped for the 1.0 release in Sep 2024!
(Oh, and yes: You need breaks from Satisfactory and it's normal for things to feel like chores (you did that factory mess by yourself, right? :D ). But there is always a time to go back and enjoy progress and exploration.)
That power grid was an atrocity, I love it. Great video
If you really mean that, thank you so much Darkachu! My first legit time trying to get everything sorted and it was pretty messy to say the least haha
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel oh I mean both things 100%. I absolutely had the same struggle at first like how am I supposed to connect all these things with four wires and the result is an absolute birds nest of crisscrossing power lines. And I did enjoy the video
I'm so glad you were in the same boat as me, haha. I probably do have to pay a lot more attention to the power lines and the generators, but I'm more chaotic/chaotic
great to virtually relive the beginning of this game via this video
The best thing I love seeing in comments! Especially when I can see my style or experiences give everyone a nostalgia moment
This is exactly the Satisfactory content I've been hungry for. Thank you so much
Hey man, I should be thanking you a million times over for that! It's been a split where I either do too many wrong things or people have nostalgia from when they played. You're the best Swoop :D
Lol using something to auto craft is so relatable, I use my headset
Aye, the paper weight gang for life!
Well thanks for playing, enjoyed your video until the end
Thank you for watching so much Wyne!
Having 750 hours in the game myself, its nice to see such a genuine first experience. I was lucky enough to get into the game a little behind a couple of my friends and played in a world with them in my first playthrough. Learned coal power via three of us hitting our heads against it, and then took on my own world which was far from organized and made it all the way to alluminium. I have yet to beat the game cuz the later half of the game can get exhausting with all the fluids and byproducts, but is still mad satisfying to get working and I am hoping to finish out a run by 1.0 release.
I'm obsessed with your channel at the moment, thank you for helping me survive uni study!
You're very welcome man! Keep pushing on in Uni and I'll keep giving everyone videos
I used to love this game i used to played it with my friend completely forgot about it until this showed up in my fyp Thanks!
Im actually gonna play it now
You're very welcome man!
Doggo. Always looking forward to your gameplay videos. Your adventures on planets and oceans all around galaxies is definitely a delight to watch. Thank you and please, keep'em coming.
I should be thanking you for so many kind words, truly. It means a lot that you've enjoyed them so far
I was unsure whether to buy satisfactory but after seeing this video I bought it instantly, I am a lover of games that can last 500+ hours.
This is that game and so much more!! Get ready for way too many hours and then other stuff you add-on after your first playthrough :D
Doggo. My philosophy exactly - If it doesn't work, make it bigger!
Haha, always my go to!!
I am not sure if it is needed, but I will say it anyway:
Every machine have an input. For most it is depends for the recipe, but power is the most simple.
It just needs a set number of coal and water each minute, to add set amount of power into the system.
Miners, are the same as a generators, but backwards - if you give them power, they will produce the set amount of resource.
Conveyer of each level, have a speed. So in any connected system if all numbers are equal -
Amount produced by miners, speed of the conveyors and amount consumed by the generators, it will work.
In your setup, it seems that conveyors are way too slow, and all system runs out of coal.
last one:
The power is extremely simple - production is number of power you currently have.
And consumption is amount currently used (Between all machine connected to the power poll you checking it from).
If you ever need more power then you have - the system will break and you will need to pull the lever to reactivate it.
Of course if you have not added more power production, it will fail again soon.
Always needed and I'm going to use this during my new playthrough, thank you so much again Mistmage and sorry on the late reply here!
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel I am glad to be able to see more satisfactory from you!
If you have any more questions - just ask.
I NEED a part 2 (200 days)!!! I absolutely love satisfactory and i found it really funny how you experience it for yourself for the first time! 😅 Go big doggo!
I'm so happy to hear you enjoy it that much Snail! Possibly sometime soon I'll finish up the game
We need more 🎉
Finish to the last milestone and last space elevator.
I will watch all of it
I most definitely will! I'm so curious to see what happens in the end
Love this game so much. Great to see a first time experience again
You're the best man! It's always such a nice feeling knowing that the first timers can still be entertaining!
It finally happened! I have been waiting for this! Wonderful video.
It sure did and with part 2 coming soon to finish up all milestones!
Aw man need more of this a lot has changed since it went to 1.0
More coming soon! This and plenty other
That was a wonderful time. Thank you.
I hope you continue that the game.
Thank you just as much. I will also be finishing up this game in the next 2 weeks here :D
Great video as always man really enjoyed this one. Sadly i havent been able to watch them as much recently and catch the streams due to studying for my exam on thursday, but this was a great video nicely done
Ayeee, Culky! I'm sorry to hear about being busy with exams and such, but it does bring a big smile to my face to see you again after all this time! Feels like forever. I hope you've been kicking the prof's butt!
that doggo is so cute :) this game is a lot of fun.... oh and dunno if someone already said it but when your using the manual crafting bench you can press space bar once and it will keep crafting the item till you run out of materials, you dont need to hold down the button or keep pressing it over and over. Really enjoyed the video !
Duly noted on not using my phone to craft everything up, haha. Thanks so much and it means a lot to hear you've enjoyed it so much :D
OH HO! SATISFACTORY!
I LOVE THIS GAME
You know it :D
I just learned that if you press space while in the craft bench it automatically crafts.
A much needed help, thank you Gou!
1. Screws are the bane of my existence in this game. I will go out of my way to find alternate recipes to eliminate them ASAP. 2. hearing you call them "nails" every single time hurts my brain. Love the channel. Also, Alternate Steel Ingots is an absolute essential alt recipe too.
Screws were definitely quite the bunch to handle, but every time I found myself saying nails in the edits, it even drove me insane haha. I have a not so great habit with calling things something else because I forget what they are in the moment. Steel is also important, duly noted!
It wasn’t a complaint, found it quite endearing tbh. I have friends that do the same thing
Good to know! Glad it wasn't a bad thing haha
It's wild to watch different perpectives on games... I thought I do little reading for games. I'm pretty sure you had 120 belts on coal and were trying to run +120 on it...
You're definitely right about that. I had way too much being pulled in the beginning
As for suggestions, here are some that I haven't seen in the comments yet. Definitely poke about those crash sites more, the reward is worth the time spent hunting them down if you get lucky. Also, play with the MAM and look for resources you don't see in the HUB. Most ores you don't have yet are not in the HUB but must be found and researched in the MAM and will give you a whole lot of cool new toys, including all remaining weapon upgrades. If the floor and plants are pink/red, death is everywhere so be careful. Lizard doggos like berries. Press C while running, then jump during that and see what happens. Don't be afraid to tear down an old factory and rebuild it from the ground up. The awesome sink and shop are your friend, especially once you start working with oil. If you are stuck waiting, build a factory or explore the world, time will fly by. Fluid can always go up as far as it has already gone down, but needs help going up any further than that. Overclocking miners and water extractors is the best use for power slugs, other uses simply save space, but there are finite nodes and space upon the water so its worth the slugs. A fully overclocked water extractor fills a normal pipe to its max throughput. See what happens when you fire hypertubes into hypertubes, fastest way to fly. Find mycellia, they make a great earlygame mobility tool. Putting multiple item types on the same belt is gonna start to be tempting... don't do it. Have fun, and don't stress about perfection, the game is built so you can play it any way you like really, all of these are suggestions and do not need to be heeded. I hope to see your adventure continue.
Out of school early and saw this notification! Best Monday I’ve had in a while
Heck ya turtle!
Great video! you seemed like you fun. cant wait to see what you do with the oil! also it might be helpful with power issue is that you and underclock some of your machines, your machines will stop and start if it has too littles materials but if you underclock them. 1, it takes less power and 2, your power usages will stabilize so you will break power less often with HIGH peaks in power.
Also power storages are always useful to help when you go too high in your power [power spikes].
I did see someone already commented about the mk 1 belts, it isn't just speed its how many items it will carry in 1 minute, aka mk 1 belts will only carry 60 items per min. this game has so much maths, so remember to always double check your work lol I have missed many MK 1, more so if your having issues with power or not feeding your machines.
here is more information about your power graph.
**Consumption** Power are ARE currently using.
**Max Consumption** Power you WOULD be using if all your machines were all on, [max power demand] aka some might be idle or turned off.
**Production** The power you are CURRENTLY making. if this line isn't straight then your power production is turning ON and OFF meaning it needs more materials [coal gen coal/water ] to function at 100%. ALSO machines have a % so you can see if they are struggling.
**Capacity** The power you can make if everything is running correctly, (also biomass burners kick in when needed),
To prevent high spikes you want to keep an eye on that MAX cons line.
hope to this all helps, hope to see 100 more days :)
Watching this in Japan (holiday) right now. Saw this pop up and was really disappointed cause I had time for one 20ish minute video at the time max. I now finally have more free time and you KNOW I'm making sure to watch this.
I've only played a very little bit of this game and thought it was really cool. Didn't know it gets so complicated later with all the power lines and advanced materials. ^_^; Dunno if I would have the patience for all that. Lol. But still a great video. I love your 100 Days series. :3
I'm sure you'd enjoy the later on building and crafting, but it definitely takes some trial and error haha. Thank you so much for enjoying my stuff Tabby
The best video i have seen in days. Keep up the hard work!!
Thank you so much Bribri!
ah yes Satisfactory one of my favorite automation games now here is a mindblow detail you can tap space while making stuff to not require a paperweight
This will save me going forward, thank you omgoodness!!
This video was funny but also painful to watch.
1) Mk. is an abbreviation for Mark. So when talking about belts or miners, it is Mark 1 belt, Mark 2 Belt, Mark 2 Miner, Etc. Mark is used to denote a generation or revision of something.
2) Pay attention to parts per minute of production. Your coal plants kept failing because you didn't supply enough coal. You figured this out eventually, but read what the machine is going to consume and then build according to how fast you can deliver. If a coal plant takes 15 coal per minute and your fastest belt is 120, you can support 8 coal plants assuming your miner is keeping up with 120 per minute. The visual representation of spacing on the belt doesn't matter as much as the actual math.
3) The in game search button (default is n) has a built in calculator. If you enter 120/15, it will give you the answer so you don't need to do the math in your head or on your phone.
Sorry that it wasn't as fun to watch this time. This game especially was harder for me and a whole bunch of learning I was honestly afraid of. Truth be told I played it with a bunch of friends who did the building and setting up the base properly. Definitely a different take, good/bad, this is how my mind worked.
No excuses though, I hear you on the stuff that was hard to watch and I'll try and pay attention more when it comes to things right in front of my face. It's no secret that I don't enjoy reading so much in games, but something I do have to work on.
With all that said, thanks for the advice on stuff that could've helped!
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel Maybe I was a little hard on ya at the time. I did watch your whole video though and did enjoy it. Satisfactory is one of my favorite games and I can't wait for 1.0 to launch.
You're completely fine! It's more so just real and raw criticism! If you just left off with it was painful to watch and that's it I would've felt indifferent haha
I'm always open to how people feel and what I could do in making things feel or even just sound better
You should try making manafolds and all the machines tell you how much you need a minute so you can plan accordingly with the correct convyer belts. Mk 1 does 60 mk2 does 120 mk3 does 270 and mk4 does 480 per minute. If you have a slower one in a faster line it will bottleneck the amount of resources coming through. And lastly overclocking takes exponentially more power the more you try to produce with it. Goodluck mate amazing video. 👍
Edit: lizard doggos are tamed with berrys. DOGGO
That is an awesome game, it does look very complicated, but amazing. Great job, would love to see more.
Idk man, my brain was hurting a few weeks in lol. Though I do have more coming soon enough
love the exitment and how happy u sound :D reminds me of my self playin for the first time aswell..loved the vid hopin for a p2
Working on possibly the last part of the video soon! I'm also super thankful for the kind words and relatable energy Mohammad :D
Great video. Though I found my self screaming at the screen. So many things are left for you to discover. Such as base building, transport of resources via trucks, trains and drones. If you do another 100 days, try building a starter base. Produce only up to tier 3 items and build a storage area where all the items are stored. Try some compact builds around miners. 6X6 foundations and scale up to produce an item all within that 6x6 footprint.
I hope you'll give me another chance, haha! I plan on using this comment actually as a kind of guide to and from finishing up the last few milestones. I just hope it's an easier learning curb lol
If you are manually crafting bulk tap space and it will craft continuously until you stop it
This is a life savor!!
Amazing video. u play some of my favourite games on your channel like subnautica and satisfactory (this game) i saw you beat subnautica nad i would love to see you max this game too. please do a part 2, there is so much more to unlock and have fun with.
I'm super glad you've enjoyed the games I've played so far Sizzy! I definitely plan to finish up Satisfactoy here and see what other crazy things I can come up with :D
All the portable drills at the
Beginning😂
Yeah.. I got a little carried away, haha
They used to be so adorable in the beginning now not ao much
Doggo, love this game 🎉
The coal setup nightmare is giving me bad flashbacks. Had so much trouble trying to min max it. At day 67-69 now. I'm hoping for a 200 days episode later 😂
200 Days has to come because no way did I go through that coal madness lmao
I would love to see more of this but take more breaks to not get burnt out man you sound depressed at the end XD
Lmao, depressed was close, but I think it's been long enough to jump back in. I just wasn't used to trying to farm/build all the while using my brain to figure out some wacky stuff
omg There are so much energy on this video.
I hope that's not a bad thing, haha
Just played this game yesterday!! Can't wait to watch it! 👍
It's a lot of fun :P
one water pump per 2 coal generators and make sure your belts are fast enough to move the coal and careful with over clocking cause it using a lot more power
I'll double check the overclocking and make sure it isn't using so much power. Thanks for the heads up Robert!
Cool Man! I Love Satisfactory! You inspired me to try to make a 100 days raft video with my friend, but i am now realizing that the editing and scripting is insane work, do you have any tips?
Aye, that's fantastic to hear man! That's also the harder parts for the majority of people. For editing and just the scripts/voice-overs alone I'd say do it in portions or after each session so it doesn't become too much. I realized myself that leaving 100 days to edit, 100 days to right script for and doing voice over with a whole bunch of extra footage became too much. I'm slowly working towards playing/recording the game, and then editing it down the same day so it doesn't feel like too much
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel Those are some great tips man, thank you so much! Love what you're doing!
Fun fact, when in the work bench, if you press the space bar once, it automatically craft's
That is a fun fact, holy magic karp!!
We need part 2 that's so amazing i love this game
Part 2 will be coming soon to a RUclips near you ;D
Just wanted to thank you for making this vid. I found your channel because of it and I've been having a blast going through your back catalogue.
Though, I also kinda hate you for doing this vid. Because I'm trying to wait until 1.0 before playing Satisfactory again and watching you play it made it really hard to keep to that plan 😉
Awh, well first off I'm happy you've enjoyed the stuff I've done so far and welcome to the channel!
I also feel you on waiting for 1.0 because they finally released that it'll go full release this year and that's huge :P
saying "building in this game is awesome" without even using zoop mode is crazy
Yeah, quite a few things I should've held off on saying because of not fully experiencing certain things haha
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel it means the game is great even without it's QoL features!
@@pantsoff You couldn't be more right about that :D
Reminded me of my first gameplay of the game❤❤
That's wonderful to hear. It's always great to share some nostalgia for those first time playing like myself
Thanks for showing me if I want this game or not
You're welcome buddy. It does have a full release update coming in 6 days so if you aren't sure now, I'd wait until then!
Seeing gameplay of this game makes my day, dogos
Well thank you for watching my stuff Nicolas!
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel i used to say rayfopanas as i never am able to see long yt names from afar 🤣
Around 15 minutes i heard the best cuss while not cussing line ever said

Good job 👍🏼 really hoping for a 200 days
Definitely will be Denzik, thanks again man!
My time has come, I must return to the Panda Ray!
Welcome back ganon!
Crafting things by hand can be "automated" by double-tapping the space bar.
Thanks for letting me know Jean! I had no idea when going about it haha
nice, i love this game, so im exited to see how you play it
Definitely took me some times to learn man, but I absolutely enjoyed my time!
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel good to hear
Congrats on reaching the start of the game!
Lmao, you're too kind
What A Video, Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Jet Fighter and I most definitely will :D
Aaah yes! Satisfactory. One of the only games I have over 1000 hours in!
I could easily see 1000hrs playing the game now, haha. It takes a while to learn and just understand the mechanics for tiers/milestones
NGL, I have 51 hours into the game, and I've unlocked everything up to stage 8, and I have barely used foundations. I have a half dozen resource extraction areas with conveyor belts going across the map to my hub which is surrounded by a spaghetti of conveyor belts and constructors.
Damn man, that is impressive to only have that many hours in the game and already at stage 8?!
Did you finally figure out, a) how to upgrade buildings? seeing you rip the miner down and then the belts made me cry. b) what berries are and what they're used for?
Yes to both!! By the end I was kicking myself for how easy it was to just replace on top of things, and then berries and the real use they have after finding the research stuff ;o
No idea most things in the game had so much depth to them
My favorite game of all time lol I definitely don’t have 2,000 hours in this game or anything umm anyway 😂 amazing video pandas!!!!!
It's so cool to see how many people have played this game and still do. Thousands of hours is insane
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel😂😂it’s such a good game!
Watching new players after 600 hours of playtime is always interesting
It's been so humbling to see how many people or just how big the community is for the game and how helpful everyone has been!
Satisfactory truly makes people Turring complete
Turring?
Im a bit late but exitied to see how far you got!
You're never late Mc Boi, and I'm taking this game until the end :D
Hey great video, i have played this game for over 650 hours but got burnt out because i couldn’t get a factory to work where all my previous did work fine eventually. I was at tier 7 i believe.
I didn’t see you zooping or running and sliding, do you know how to do it or didn’t you record it in the video ?
All those portable miners looked really funny btw.
I was running but I didn't know you could zoop or slide, what! ;o
@@RayofpandasGamingChannel Crazy after 100 days! But that’s all in your favour so that you can now even have more fun while running and building. There are numerous videos on zooping on youtube. In short you can lay down 10 foundations in a row instead of one by one, in all directions
Omg, even just laying down more then one piece at a time is a life savor haha. I will say, looking up video's for help instead of spoilers really does the trick!
you can just press space once to automatically craft stuff, you dont have to use your phone as a paperweight
This life savor out here!
Love this video man fuckin great progress hope you do more of this
😂
So great to hear you enjoyed this man, truly!
Cool!!! 0:15
If you shortpress spacebar it will do the holding down for you in crafting
I need you SOONER haha. Thank you cats!
School boring so I'm here watching the best youtuber in da world
