      Well, might as well brick the system so that he knows how much he needs to grow the Power production to compensate it. If he did it the other way around he might have to go upgrade power twice. First for the innitial state of things, and second time after power-hungry upgrades.

    It was never crossed my mind that you can send stuff down there without landing pad.

    • @adisca2k
      @adisca2k Месяц назад +2

      I did the same, but I would still recommend to drop with nothing on the first playthrough. It has that same feel as playing factorio for the first time and that is something you won't get the chance to experience on subsequent playthroughs.

    • @saiken923
      @saiken923 Месяц назад +1

      Same here. The game doesn't tell you and you only know that you need a cargo landing pad to send stuff down so if you don't have one why would you consider trying that.. Anyway, Vulcanus is a really beautiful planet so I don't really mind

    • @underwarrior
      @underwarrior 22 дня назад +2

      I started the same. After 4 hours I read on reddit that you can bring stuff. So I loaded the save before the flight to Vulcan. Now I took lots of stuff with me, but I didn't take enough ammo. I got to Vulcan, and right before I take the stuff - the space platform got destroyed. and I "oh well, thats my destiny".

      Well... when I report something to Wube they know it is serious, well documented, and critical, so they take a look immediately. It is incredibly difficult to find good testers and to determine the quality of the reports by testers. When you have someone with 8k hours, who they know, then it is more helpful than many random beta testers, who just want early access

    • @xipheonj
      @xipheonj Месяц назад

      The actual cut/copy/paste (ctrl-x/c/v) keeps settings when you paste, therefore doing both. I'm not sure what you're asking. You might be calling the Q key copy, but that's an eyedropper/picker, not a copy. Since I'm not sure what you mean I'll also mention that Shift Right-Click copies settings and Shift Left-Click pastes settings. One of those should answer your question.

      Theoretically you can, but devs recommend starting from scratch: 1) new planet gen is said to be better 2) rails are different now, so when you try to expand old base, new rails may not work as you think 3) different technology tree, different rocket recipe. Nothing breaking the save, but I personally plan to start from scratch

    What does being a content creator have to do with getting that early access? Because one creates video content doesn't mean one tests game content any better. I'd say moreso the other way around. Content creators are looking for ways to monetize their time, and to get that early jump on ideas.

      @Nilaus  Месяц назад +3

      Too many games release in an unfinished state despite early reviews and showcases. By allowing long time content creators access they allow potential customers to see that the game is ready, bug free, complete, fun and worth the price.

    • @iRaptorxHD
      @iRaptorxHD Месяц назад +1

      @Nilaus That's exactly the narrow-minded answer I was expecting...
      Game developers should always have a quality control department - if they don't, they are in fact poorly positioned.
      Because these types of game developers leave it up to the players, or now the content creators, to test their game.
      You are probably 1 out of 100 content creators who actually play the game and find bugs and pass them on. The others don't give a damn about the “State-Of-The-Game”.
      I find the way games are developed and then given to content creators at an early stage incredibly anti-community like...
      Either you release it for EVERYONE beforehand (it's Early Access anyway) or for no one beforehand (or Content Creator beforehand for video preparations)
      Because of you content creators who do nothing but play, the entire RUclips timeline will be for the ass and full of spoilers.
      Nothing else...just spoilers...
