I find it just brilliant how you shut down the overdrive on day 41 but had enough infirmaries to take care of all the sick folk when you did. Just brilliant👏🏾👏🏾
I mean, CO2 sublimates into a solid at -80°C so i think youd have a bigger problem than a 110°C temperature jump imagine it snows CO2 and then at once it melts into its gasous form and lays down a thick blanket of dense, almost pure C02. While youre cooking youre also suffocating.
Thats so dope. Could be a mechanic for Frostpunk 2, where once it gets cold enough you have to filter and pump air into homes to keep the people alive. Maybe you would have heated air vents in each home to keep them alive. So cool.@@tatzecom
I'd love a game with "realistic" real world scenarios in mind game mechanics . Something so brutal yet when and if achieved it would singal for a science paper on how to manage cities in crisis scenarios or catastrophes which are coming more numerous by the day . Make a real life problem into a game given by millions of mind to try to solve it at once and it would start a new way of "scientific" way of researching problems. Dont just put only the workers and engineers but put millions together trying to solve something and maybe by pure luck someone sometime cracks it. Or you know , smoke soke grass and then complain about an impossible to keep together frost punk city .
Pardon me for the comment necromancy but can I just say that I find that idea darkly hilarious? That people struck by a massive freezing apocalypse died not because of it, but the exact tomorrow, in a single moment of monstrous heatstroke. Talk about irony.
I always laugh, when I think from citizen's perspective. "What should we build next? A few more hunters huts? People are starving... Or maybe an additional medical tent? We have a lot of sick..." "Yeah, yeah sure, whatever. But I need ten more roads waaaay over there, behind that forest by morning. No one goes to sleep until it's done. Don't question my decisions!"
@@dracerad8258 All roads I placed were necessary except for a few last I built just to empty the stockpiles. Roads are the best planning tool you have in the game. They allow to mark places for future constructions without screwing the layout. Roads are to be placed in advance, because they take a lot of time (people actually have to physically walk all the way there to build them). That's why my city looks like an octopus at the start. More like Winterhell. But it is totally beatable. Stay tuned, soon here will be something epic (maybe not, but most likely will).
The final moments of the Londoners chapter was the most interesting to me. As their numbers are dwindled to 1 member, I can just imagine the leader of the now empty headquarters of the Londoners, hands to their head as they try so desperately to come up with a reason to make the trek back to London, by themselves if they have to. But in the end, they can't think of one real reason to leave. One by one they watched their comrades, their friends walk out on their mission. Cowards and traitors they had called them then, but now they wondered if they were right, that leaving the city was death. London was practically a frozen shell when they left. Did they honestly believe that it would not be claimed by the frost? Their head sunken low, they finally resign to their fate, and tell the City Captain their final decision: It's over, they weren't going anywhere. The Londoners were no more.

it's little moments like the kid giving the guard a toy that reminds you of the humanity in the game; it shows off the price, were the game real, of treating people as resources if you go that path and makes you feel guilty for every morally questionable choice made.
At the same time, because it's a game, I can't slap the fool and yell at them to hold. We have food, we have fuel, all I need is for them to keep their head. Go, stay with your family for the next two days, I don't want to see you outside. Embrace your loved ones. Stay warm and get a pot of stew. The automatons are working the walldrills. The children are busy in the cookhouses. All. Is. Well. Also, the game is missing a "Feed the bodies to the Generator" funeral. Not that I'd want to use it but it's fairly thematic.
the most humanising moment in my playthrough was when I reached the children's shelter, and since I wanted to scout further, so I sent the children back unescorted. the story said "you give them a map and point them towards your city. the children look at you in disbelief. the youngest one starts crying." I was shocked 😅😂 needless to say, after another mission I sent my scout back to escort the cheeky little pissants 😂 goddamn what a playthrough, this is the most beautiful city I've seen in many frostpunk videos.

Wow, that was unexpected. Very cool though. Unfortunately, it is hard to continue the guide further, because after a few days the game becomes a little bit more random and requires a lot of improvisation.
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 yeah i guess, everyone struggles most on the first few days, once the foundation is laid out it gets a tad bit easier. But i will know once i try playing it again
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 How did you know that you will survive bears and Tesla tower, does Lighter Scout Sleds upgrade heave anything to do ? I was told it 50-50% event.
You really get an appreciation for how hard this is when, after seeing an two hours of choreographed and planned preparation, the populace's hope still nearly breaks during the final cold snap.
As everyone else had said, this is a work of art. A true masterpiece. Every subtle move had purpose. Scouts bringing in food the moment people are hungry. The wall drill just as you run out of wood without saw mills. The delay of exploring winterhome until midnight to stifle the Londoners. I'm only 40 minutes in and I had to pause this just to mentally process everything. Well fucking done.
2:40:00 I really like the transition here. The temp drops, the new music starts just as the popup hits, then that nice work siren goes off and your only objective is to not die. I think that was really well made(though I wish that second popup didn't happen).
In the beginning when I saw you place things 'randomly' (strategically), for example the two piece streets and first workshop, I was like "ok, a master is at work here". Seeing the pre-planned spots for future buildings to be built on is so satisfying.
It actually took me about thirty hours of planning and trying different layouts. I'm still a bit unsatisfied about some parts of the city and maybe would try to fix them on the survivor. Someday...)
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 i was wondering, your scouts have a resources before to in tesla city, you select the expand teslacity, what if they die? didn't think abut it=?
This is the most insane frostpunk gameplay I have ever seen! You could even add speedrun to the title and it wouldn't be a lie, you have mastered this game, my friend.
Congrats mate, what a pleasure to watch. You absolutely nailed it. Just an incredible and perfect playtrough. Stunning! Thank you and many greetings from germany :) Wissam
everything from 2:23:00 is just a flex really... VERY nicely done - absolutely clinical Also get huge Final Fantasy 7 Midgar vibes from the city layout towards the end
After watching this i managed to win at extreme difficulty , good job and thank u for posting , one small tip put a steam hub near working automation and keep it off , u will save time returning to base to recharge power
Dude, this was art. I just beat this game today and literally was doing to 2 hours left of my generator running but I made it through...this was beautiful to watch!!
Damn, Steam Cores were so scarce in my run so i never thought of using Infirmaries as a form of storm shelter! I've noticed them burning red amidst the storm but to spamming them is unthinkable! Great work, Captain!
The artistic skill that went into creating this city has me in sheer awe. when compared to what i have done when first playing, a patchwork of random buildings that are cobbled together, almost as in search of warmth, pales in comparison to what is done in this video. Well done , this was highly enjoyable watching.
I didn't expect to stumble across a 3hr Frostpunk video and watch it all the way through, was thoroughly impressed by your handiwork! I'll have to try strategically planning housing / working areas at some point. Right now, I kinda just yolo it every time XD
I fell asleep last night watching this longplay.... I rewatched again this morning because it was so perfect and I didn't want to miss your careful masterplan. So well executed.
Got back into playing this game again, wanted to watch some videos to get some pointers again and found this absolute work of art. I was captivated from start to finish, your grid work and placements were amazing! You prepared for every possible event and had healthcare and housing for everyone. I learned more from watching this than playing the game. Truly one of the best Frostpunk vids I’ll ever watch. Hats off to you!
2 года назад+17
It was the best 3 hours I've ever spent in my life. very good video dude, Nice job.... 👌🔥
I just started 2 days ago. City building was never my type of thing until I played this. Holy shit 3 hours will go by like it’s nothing and I am dead ass willing to watch you do it so I can take hints. Thank you for your time brother even if you don’t see this. One hell of a game
I've just gotten back into the game recently and I've been trying to beat extreme and I'm hopeless and the laying of the roads made no sense for me at the start, then it clicked. Truly are a genius my friend, fair play
Decided to wait for my coffee to watch this and guess what? Best decision I've made in awhile. Brilliant video! you've got such a great mind for strategy.
the neatness, efficiency and style of your city literally had me yelling and screaming every time you expanded it. so glad i checked this one out after the new autumn one. i imagine the winterholm one will be equally as impressive
I recently discovered this game and survived my first mission, half my population died but made it after all and I was pround until I saw your video and my jaw dropped. I saw gameplays, but always seemed people adjusting as needed, but here i saw careful planning and executing. Nicely done! Cheers!
The whole beginning, i had the aerosmith song "livin on the edge" in my head. Very nice video, kind of satisfying in a weird way. And if theres something i learned from this, is that no matter how good you try in your life, people will still complain all the time 😂
46:50 "I'm gonna send an outpost team to the Fishing Village to secure more food" ~EXACTLY ONE MINUTE LATER~ Sites discovered: Tesla City "…" "fish taste bad." That's my headcanon.
Been binging videos of this game and lord this is like a breath of fresh air after watching some folks blatantly forgetting things like sustainable sources of wood/coal for 80% of the scenario
Would have loved some commentary explaining your decisions and any mistakes you may have made. Anyway amazing video, seeing you place these random roads is weird at first. But then 15 minutes later it pays off when you see the beautiful and efficient urban landscape you've constructed.
@@plolochufu When you're building, even though buildings have a set tile space (like 3x5), due to the radial layout, some tiles can be cut in half or extended. So the game offers you a bit of leeway when building things, letting you expand buildings up to like 1/2 or almost 1 extra tile or contract them about 1/4 of a tile. Those roads were there to keep those shapes in check, and contract the hunting houses just a tiny bit so they'd all fit nicely.
Reading the title and description, I could not believe that this had no deaths on the most demanding and extreme level. However not only did the video prove to be factual, it was also completely satisfying to watch. As someone with OCD watching all of this was not only an adventure but it was salubrious. The meticulous use of both efficiency and order was soothing. Simply beautiful. I will be looking forward to any videos you make.
Just waouh! I'd the same video with your voice on it for the tips you used and I can easily see again for the pleasure. Thanks I went 30 to 41 thanks to you
I love how this game is. Even when you think you completed the game and it would be futile to replay it, there are still a lot pf endings. Like this one, yesterday I saw an Order Path where all the Order laws were done and the epilogue said "We crossed the line", but since ypu stopped making laws after a while the game said "We havent crossed the line"
dude you don’t know how much of a godsend this video is. I have like over 50 restarts just trying to get a perfect 2 weeks on hard difficulty lol. doesn’t help that I’m also going for the iron savior trophy so deathless and the storm are kicking my ass. nice video
What is the trick you do where you will build a building out somewhere and then build roads beside it, but then delete the building and then rebuild it like right in front of where you had just deleted it? Happens 17:05-17:30 for one example
Now i see my mistake, i try to combat the cold with heat, but your approach is much better.... You feed the shit out of them because, NOTHING CAN STOP THE WALRUS PEOPLE! :D
I wish I could play the game at least similarly as you! It was awesome to see your leading skills captain! Just like a movie... Looking forward to your future content! By the way, happy new year!
You're god of this game, watching your gameplay was a huge pleasure for me, every part of your city look so nice. For me hard difficulty is a pain as fuck, and you re doing things like this at Extreme. How many hours have you played in this game?
@@stephenseputra9897 I don't think endless is good, if u survive the first storm, then the others will become more easy, and as time passes, u could survive easily the others storms, even in extreme, where the resources are limited, the moment u have a lot of coal with the coal thumper, u wouldn't need all the others materials :P
@@stephenseputra9897 Yes, I have. Quite boring to be honest. When you beat the second storm, the game becomes purely cosmetic without any challenging goals

Tell me you have OCD without telling me. Undeniably the most impressive and artistic micro management I've seen in any video game, great job. Finished my first playthrough last night and this is the video I pressed to watch to see what I could've done better (let's not talk about it).
How much OCD I have? I find this video full of mistakes I could have done better. It is soooo far from what I originally intended, I was very hesitant to even post it at all back then. Congrats on your playthrough. How did it went?
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 It was hard I used way less tech and I was always running out. Seeing you bypassing sawmills and gathering posts (I literally put gathering posts on every small deposit) I think I'm going to give it a second run before moving to the DLCs copying as many steps as I can. But everyone was obedient so all good! :)
@@MightyPatriot Skipping sawmill was a risky but planned step. If you remember, I skipped ironworks even harder :D If you have any additional questions or something about tactics - feel free to ask, I'll be glad to help
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 Thank you I'll keep that in mind. There are many takes on how to go on youtube so far I liked yours the most. Again great video! :)
A truly spectacular and wonderful gameplay. I had just recently gotten into playing the game and got to learn a lot from this! Can't wait to binge your other videos on the rest of the scenarios.
I was trying to figure out why your population dropped from a peak of 705 to 698. It took me awhile of scanning through the footage to figure out that: A) Automatons count towards your population total. B) It takes several seconds after clicking dismantle for them to actually disappear.
I have bought the game, and while i was able to finally finish my mission on this map, i had 138 people alive in my New London, i felt like i conquered the world, then i opened youtube and saw this video as recommended. I cannot believe it's possible, i tought i did very well but holy ****. I hope when the global warming brings the next ice age you will be around.
Dude... I just spent the last two days playing this on hard mode over and over and still didn't manage to get the deathless achievement. You're amazing 🥴

Wow, that was unexpected. Very cool though.
Unfortunately, it is hard to continue the guide further, because after a few days the game becomes a little bit more random and requires a lot of improvisation.
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 yeah i guess, everyone struggles most on the first few days, once the foundation is laid out it gets a tad bit easier. But i will know once i try playing it again
Not all heros wear capes. I've been trying to get beat this for 3 days.
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 How did you know that you will survive bears and Tesla tower, does Lighter Scout Sleds upgrade heave anything to do ? I was told it 50-50% event.
@@M0ntarro I didn't. Just got lucky
You really get an appreciation for how hard this is when, after seeing an two hours of choreographed and planned preparation, the populace's hope still nearly breaks during the final cold snap.
This is why going full cult/full fascist is so tempting.
Damn, how the hell did I miss this No Commentary+ Hardest Difficulty clear masterpiece for *2 years?*
Good effing job, bruv
As everyone else had said, this is a work of art. A true masterpiece. Every subtle move had purpose.
Scouts bringing in food the moment people are hungry. The wall drill just as you run out of wood without saw mills. The delay of exploring winterhome until midnight to stifle the Londoners. I'm only 40 minutes in and I had to pause this just to mentally process everything.
Well fucking done.
That was by a long shot the best frostpunk gameplay I have ever seen. So masterfully planned out I actually have no words lol
2:40:00 I really like the transition here. The temp drops, the new music starts just as the popup hits, then that nice work siren goes off and your only objective is to not die. I think that was really well made(though I wish that second popup didn't happen).
In the beginning when I saw you place things 'randomly' (strategically), for example the two piece streets and first workshop, I was like "ok, a master is at work here". Seeing the pre-planned spots for future buildings to be built on is so satisfying.
After finishing medium and hard, I have come to watch the extreme and watched the whole video, this is beautiful. You have created an art :)
It actually took me about thirty hours of planning and trying different layouts. I'm still a bit unsatisfied about some parts of the city and maybe would try to fix them on the survivor. Someday...)
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 i was wondering, your scouts have a resources before to in tesla city, you select the expand teslacity, what if they die? didn't think abut it=?
@@emrederseniz6366 There is a 50 50 chance of them dying as far as I am concerned.
Wow, that was an incredible story of survival. I got so immersed in the story that I completely forgot this was a game.
Thanks for playing!
I recently started playing this game, it gets to my head every time, very disturbing yet realistic game, I'm loving it, addicted.
Damn, such cool micro management. It was a pleasure to watch)
It's always incredibly inspiring when someone shows such mastery over a game. GGWP - truly an amazing video to watch.
This is the most insane frostpunk gameplay I have ever seen! You could even add speedrun to the title and it wouldn't be a lie, you have mastered this game, my friend.
Congrats mate,
what a pleasure to watch. You absolutely nailed it. Just an incredible and perfect playtrough. Stunning!
Thank you and many greetings from germany :)
Wissam
everything from 2:23:00 is just a flex really...
VERY nicely done - absolutely clinical
Also get huge Final Fantasy 7 Midgar vibes from the city layout towards the end
After watching this i managed to win at extreme difficulty , good job and thank u for posting , one small tip put a steam hub near working automation and keep it off , u will save time returning to base to recharge power
The intro of this game is so epic. Gets me eveytime
Dude, this was art. I just beat this game today and literally was doing to 2 hours left of my generator running but I made it through...this was beautiful to watch!!
Congratulations with beating the game)
I just beat the new home scenario and about 2/3 of my population died during the final storm due to my incompetence as a leader.
@@joshcastillo824 haha, a win is a win!! congrats! hope you enjoyed
Damn, Steam Cores were so scarce in my run so i never thought of using Infirmaries as a form of storm shelter!
I've noticed them burning red amidst the storm but to spamming them is unthinkable!
Great work, Captain!
The artistic skill that went into creating this city has me in sheer awe. when compared to what i have done when first playing, a patchwork of random buildings that are cobbled together, almost as in search of warmth, pales in comparison to what is done in this video. Well done , this was highly enjoyable watching.
I didn't expect to stumble across a 3hr Frostpunk video and watch it all the way through, was thoroughly impressed by your handiwork!
I'll have to try strategically planning housing / working areas at some point. Right now, I kinda just yolo it every time XD
Citizens:does our Captain really have a plan
The captain:
This is such a work of art. My measly, ugly planning pales in comparison to yours. THIS IS SO GOOD!!!
Such an awesome run,i love how at the end of the storm you had the generator's stress level at 96%
Truly well done!
I fell asleep last night watching this longplay.... I rewatched again this morning because it was so perfect and I didn't want to miss your careful masterplan. So well executed.
yeah bro that snow and blizzard makes you fall aslepp
Got back into playing this game again, wanted to watch some videos to get some pointers again and found this absolute work of art. I was captivated from start to finish, your grid work and placements were amazing! You prepared for every possible event and had healthcare and housing for everyone. I learned more from watching this than playing the game. Truly one of the best Frostpunk vids I’ll ever watch. Hats off to you!
It was the best 3 hours I've ever spent in my life. very good video dude, Nice job.... 👌🔥
Whenever I feel depressed, I find myself in here. Thanks doc, I really appreciate

I would absolutely love a Frostpunk movie and this video provides an exact script to how it should be written. You're a master, excellent work
2:59:00 that ending with that sound and the screen on black, was amazing, thanks for this video, this deserves to be a movie
Thiss.... this is beautiful, I want someone with this much effort an accuracy leading me in military. Good job, keep it up!
This video cures OCD. Can attest personally!
Yeah, mine cure too
after a couple of trys myself with the extreme dificulty hats off to you man
That all of them survived this was a Christmas Miracle!
I just started 2 days ago. City building was never my type of thing until I played this. Holy shit 3 hours will go by like it’s nothing and I am dead ass willing to watch you do it so I can take hints. Thank you for your time brother even if you don’t see this. One hell of a game
I've just gotten back into the game recently and I've been trying to beat extreme and I'm hopeless and the laying of the roads made no sense for me at the start, then it clicked. Truly are a genius my friend, fair play
Decided to wait for my coffee to watch this and guess what? Best decision I've made in awhile. Brilliant video! you've got such a great mind for strategy.
Amazing. Thank you for bringing this into reality. I know I'm late to the party but it should not be understated how impressive this was.
the neatness, efficiency and style of your city literally had me yelling and screaming every time you expanded it. so glad i checked this one out after the new autumn one. i imagine the winterholm one will be equally as impressive
The thumpers at the end, dude, that was awesome.
I recently discovered this game and survived my first mission, half my population died but made it after all and I was pround until I saw your video and my jaw dropped. I saw gameplays, but always seemed people adjusting as needed, but here i saw careful planning and executing. Nicely done! Cheers!
I really enjoy these runs. No deaths, a fairly good quality of life.
rewatching it, and waiting for Frostpunk 2 gameplay by yours truly Doctor
This game is literally the Futurama God meme quote: "When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all."
The whole beginning, i had the aerosmith song "livin on the edge" in my head.
Very nice video, kind of satisfying in a weird way.
And if theres something i learned from this, is that no matter how good you try in your life, people will still complain all the time 😂
46:50 "I'm gonna send an outpost team to the Fishing Village to secure more food"
~EXACTLY ONE MINUTE LATER~
Sites discovered: Tesla City "…"
"fish taste bad."
That's my headcanon.
Boy boy boyy look at that discontent
Such a masterpiece man idk how come someone have this lvl of precision
Just a little bit of practice
Been binging videos of this game and lord this is like a breath of fresh air after watching some folks blatantly forgetting things like sustainable sources of wood/coal for 80% of the scenario
This gameplay is so good I kept re watching it for almost 2 years. Hands down one of my fav for Frostpunk.
Would have loved some commentary explaining your decisions and any mistakes you may have made. Anyway amazing video, seeing you place these random roads is weird at first. But then 15 minutes later it pays off when you see the beautiful and efficient urban landscape you've constructed.
Like why does he make the small portions of road prior to building the hunting huts and then take em down?
@@plolochufu When you're building, even though buildings have a set tile space (like 3x5), due to the radial layout, some tiles can be cut in half or extended. So the game offers you a bit of leeway when building things, letting you expand buildings up to like 1/2 or almost 1 extra tile or contract them about 1/4 of a tile. Those roads were there to keep those shapes in check, and contract the hunting houses just a tiny bit so they'd all fit nicely.
@@Doomeiner what's the reason this tends to happen?
@@Doomeiner Thannnnnnk you. I could not work that out, but now I recall seeing tiles stretch sometimes when placing.
2:24:05 and 2:25:29 The way the Hunters flew in synchronization! Beautiful!!
God I love how satisfying this video is. Made me learn a lot more!
Reading the title and description, I could not believe that this had no deaths on the most demanding and extreme level. However not only did the video prove to be factual, it was also completely satisfying to watch. As someone with OCD watching all of this was not only an adventure but it was salubrious. The meticulous use of both efficiency and order was soothing.
Simply beautiful.
I will be looking forward to any videos you make.
It is my headcanon that the Captain of this run was of German descent. ;)
The way you organised your city sometimes made me audibly moan with delight whenever a building was perfectly placed in a slot 🤩
Just waouh! I'd the same video with your voice on it for the tips you used and I can easily see again for the pleasure. Thanks I went 30 to 41 thanks to you
The sounds of frostpunk are so soothing.
Insane! You actually built ember city!
The ruler is a bit better though
This video put enough warmth in my heart to survive the -150 degree storm without the generator active
I love how this game is.
Even when you think you completed the game and it would be futile to replay it, there are still a lot pf endings.
Like this one, yesterday I saw an Order Path where all the Order laws were done and the epilogue said "We crossed the line", but since ypu stopped making laws after a while the game said "We havent crossed the line"
I bow down to your time to prepare for that run. I still can't beat the game on normal but watching that ... I am shocked. Great work
Love how the music ended with the game, next level timing
That was a pleasure to watch. I'm still in shock after not a single death, thank you Master Manager !
There wasn’t a single wasted moment in the entire three hour video
dude you don’t know how much of a godsend this video is. I have like over 50 restarts just trying to get a perfect 2 weeks on hard difficulty lol. doesn’t help that I’m also going for the iron savior trophy so deathless and the storm are kicking my ass. nice video
this guy should be president of the world and there will be no war
your amazing bro ik its 3 years old but wow this is the best playthrough ive seen yet
What is the trick you do where you will build a building out somewhere and then build roads beside it, but then delete the building and then rebuild it like right in front of where you had just deleted it? Happens 17:05-17:30 for one example
It is called shrinking. This trick allows to fit more buildings into the circle than it would normally do. That's how circular grid in FP works
I loved this gamepay, I've never been so satisfied to see how much you're good at this game.
Amazing
Dude is out here having no deaths in an extreme run and here I am having 300 deaths on easy mode
Awesome gameplay! And you build everything beautifully in place.
"I hate soup!" *discontent increases* It's only the end of the world.
Id answer "enjoy the snow then."
I wish I had the ability to make something this detailed. Every time I try, it never turns out nearly as good as this. Great job👍
Now i see my mistake, i try to combat the cold with heat, but your approach is much better....
You feed the shit out of them because, NOTHING CAN STOP THE WALRUS PEOPLE! :D
I wish I could play the game at least similarly as you! It was awesome to see your leading skills captain! Just like a movie... Looking forward to your future content! By the way, happy new year!
Amazing run, I could never. Bravo! Like watching a feature film.
The people are surely blessed to have you as captain!
You're god of this game, watching your gameplay was a huge pleasure for me, every part of your city look so nice. For me hard difficulty is a pain as fuck, and you re doing things like this at Extreme. How many hours have you played in this game?
Thanks, I've been playing quite a while. Have around 500 hours, I guess. I was going to make The Ark scenario but decided to take a brake for now)
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 you tried endless before?
@@stephenseputra9897 I don't think endless is good, if u survive the first storm, then the others will become more easy, and as time passes, u could survive easily the others storms, even in extreme, where the resources are limited, the moment u have a lot of coal with the coal thumper, u wouldn't need all the others materials :P
@@stephenseputra9897 Yes, I have. Quite boring to be honest. When you beat the second storm, the game becomes purely cosmetic without any challenging goals
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 They really need to do something to make Endless a little more interesting. Wanna bounce around ideas and hope 11 Bit Studios sees it?
I love this game, I love your play through. Thank you very much!
This guy is a MACHINE! 🔥🔥💪
Just a simple automaton, upgraded to Integration lvl III
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 I'm thinking about going for platinum on ps5. This gameplay is just insane. I need to put in work if I'm gonna be anywhere close to this. Gj man. 🔥💪
@@noequilibrium6179 Good luck with your journey. If you need any help/advice - feel free to ask)
Tell me you have OCD without telling me. Undeniably the most impressive and artistic micro management I've seen in any video game, great job. Finished my first playthrough last night and this is the video I pressed to watch to see what I could've done better (let's not talk about it).
How much OCD I have? I find this video full of mistakes I could have done better. It is soooo far from what I originally intended, I was very hesitant to even post it at all back then.
Congrats on your playthrough. How did it went?
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 It was hard I used way less tech and I was always running out. Seeing you bypassing sawmills and gathering posts (I literally put gathering posts on every small deposit) I think I'm going to give it a second run before moving to the DLCs copying as many steps as I can. But everyone was obedient so all good! :)
@@MightyPatriot Skipping sawmill was a risky but planned step. If you remember, I skipped ironworks even harder :D
If you have any additional questions or something about tactics - feel free to ask, I'll be glad to help
@@dr.nikolasivory8193 Thank you I'll keep that in mind. There are many takes on how to go on youtube so far I liked yours the most. Again great video! :)
bro has PhD in Frostpunk
A truly spectacular and wonderful gameplay. I had just recently gotten into playing the game and got to learn a lot from this! Can't wait to binge your other videos on the rest of the scenarios.
I was trying to figure out why your population dropped from a peak of 705 to 698. It took me awhile of scanning through the footage to figure out that:
A) Automatons count towards your population total.
B) It takes several seconds after clicking dismantle for them to actually disappear.
i was wondering that myself! thanks for figuring it out
I have bought the game, and while i was able to finally finish my mission on this map, i had 138 people alive in my New London, i felt like i conquered the world, then i opened youtube and saw this video as recommended. I cannot believe it's possible, i tought i did very well but holy ****. I hope when the global warming brings the next ice age you will be around.
It's really hard if you don't get crash site, I always get gloomy cave..sigh.
Omfg you are artist. So smooth game moves. Big thx for this
Me, who survived this with 41 survivors left: nice
Dude... I just spent the last two days playing this on hard mode over and over and still didn't manage to get the deathless achievement. You're amazing 🥴
