They can't do that unless they do it right... Hypertube Cannon... and those haven't been invented yet, so Snutt should get to be able to stick around for a good long while yet. ;)
Same here, also been enjoying the Palworld game. What is with early access games being better than games made by triple-A companies. It's like they actually care about the product and they want peoples opinions on them
If you're doing DLCs, please make it like an Expansion Pack. Introduce an expensive late-game way to travel to another map, be it in the form of a planet, dimension, or simply just an island. The game doesn't have to become more complicated to have a solid Expansion Pack.
A way to explore just the rest of the world we exist on would be awesome too, we only have a small island to ourselves whereas the planet is bound to be massive, probably earth sized.
I absolutely love how your studio's definition of an "incomplete game" is what most studios would've sold at AAA price and also locked tiers 6 through 8 behind "dlc." This game has received an incredible amount of love, sweat, and tears, and it shows.

When Update 8 finally left Experimental and arrived on Early Access, I hadn't played Satisfactory in over a year (because I was waiting for some of the quality-of-life improvements). When I finally fired up my save file to give Update 8 a spin, I glanced at the clock a few minutes later and realized eight hours had gone by. 😮 Satisfactory is so satisfying that I literally can't even touch it without setting aside an entire day. 😂
Fun fact: with update 8 they added nudging mode. When having a hologram selected, press h to lock it in place so you can move around it. Then you can press the wasd keys to nudge it by 0.5 meter steps in all directions
@@ario203ita5 That's 8 hours right there already trying to find that perfectly aesthetic nudge :p But forreal though this feature has been an absolute life saver xD
I am definitely the same way, this is one game that I have to pick when I play it because once I start the next thing I know I have a beard to my waist 🤣
Transcription of what the stationary Snutt said in the background (starting 2:17) - "And in all of these updates we're going to introduce unique Fixsit [something], or F-[something], that you need to collect in order to unlock the [something] of the game, which will unlock a new musical feature where you can compose and perform songs using various automated instruments. These songs will have different effects on the environment such as attracting or repelling creatures, changing the weather, or triggering cool in-game events just like Fortnite. And not only that, if you play these updates while they're in Experimental, you're gonna be able to unlock the Goat Simulator mode, where you can play as an actual goat, who will have their own faction."
This development process should be taught in universities. The gold standard of game development. Well done to everyone at Coffee Stain Studios, you should be proud of what you've created.
I can't speak for game dev. But in industrial software engineering, this is the core at the core of most models you get taught. But in most industries, a roadmap for the negotiated features is required and you would have "a closed BETA" with every single update where other shareholders do excessive testing with your work.
What made CSS and Satisfactory unique is that there was an initial roadmap, and what the "finished" game looked like. But then the game made a lot of money, which was able to fund dev for years longer and create a better game with an expanded roadmap. Unfortunately you can't know ahead of time if you're going to sell 5 million units of your software and have that kind of funding. But the fact that CSS was able to adapt and clearly put their money to good use instead of just leaving the game as it was, is noteworthy and is something other devs can learn from.

@@game15098 What have you been smoking ? I don't remember the last time i've read such a bad opinion.

Want to talk endless development and horrible standards go to the 7 days to die forum and at least there your complaints will be valid.
Why is this studio so likeable? They make you feel like you're listening to the players, provide a sense of transparency in the game's development, and most importantly, the game is playable even in alpha. You can just play it. And players want to play. This game in alpha can be played better than some other "finished" releases.
They are likable because they actually like us. Nowadays big developers hate us for wanting good games and for wanting some of our ideas implemented. They practically say it out loud. So when a developer comes along that listens and implements and all the things it’s mind boggling and we find them likable. Weird how it’s always the smaller companies that make the best games.
@@Stray.. the big companies can afford to lose some customers. It is never that 50% of potential customers won‘t buy a product. The most of them are complaining, but unfortunately the most of them buy the game anyway
@@razank8996 That is definitely a huge part of the problem. Even people who said they would NEVER buy Ark Ascended bought it. Same with all the Skyrim rereleases. So yeah we, as gamers, share in the blame. That’s exactly why Bethesda feels okay about releasing the train wreck Starfield. They knew everyone was highly anticipating it and that all of them would buy it so who cares how it plays or how outdated it is.
I wish more studios took notice of how CSS does it with their early access and their interaction with the player-base. I joined the journey a bit later than others, and I regret not joining sooner because the bit I've been around with has been just amazing. Thank you for giving me hope that there might be game developers out there with the same dedication and love for their craft
I think most of the issues why companies can't do exactly what coffee stain studio does is because the community is just friendlier and understanding. Most of the games usually house people with massive egos
@@NotHappening-b8tIf you've been playing since the beginning, then yes this is very close. I was expecting other updates not a full release until 2025.
I'm 56 and have been playing games on my Commodore 64 for a long time. There have been very few games that hooked me. I have over 2000 hours in this game. I'd say this has hooked me.
I 100% though it was real. Guns of vehicules are logic there is a lot of "factorio games" where there is a constant need for defeding against some alien forms of life
You should have known he was spotting BS since they already said that update 8 was probably the last update before version 1.0 a year ago when they discussed the new branch system they were using to prepare for update 1.0.
@@verios44 I've been here since the 4th update! Patch 2018-10-27, not update 4. I don't even think we had tier 4 back then... you kids with your new fangled hypertubes! Back in my day if you wanted to get somewhere you had to WALK! Also I was too scared to take screenshots because I was under NDA(well I at least agreed not to share screenshots nor stream it, idk if it was actually legally binding but I wasn't about to fucking find out) :/ I kinda wish I did take some screenshots for myself.
@@verios44 It is weird that Is till think of pipes as "new", even though the vast majority of my gametime has been after they were added. Same with Minecraft and the Nether... goddamn I'm old. Hell, I still catch myself thinking to be careful with boats because they used to break into sticks if you looked at them wrong.
In my entire gaming life, I've never seen something like Satisfactory. Thank you, Coffee Stain, thank you, community friends, I feel so grateful for this experience. This game really changed my life
For me it has changed my perspective and has shown me that I can still expect great things from gaming companies instead of being spoon-fed the same old broken mess over and over again. It seems like only indie developers are able to accomplish this these days. This is a great game with a great concept and wonderful graphics that I can play on my potato computer. Can't say that about many others
@@malumphasma indie games have to be amazing otherwise they will see very limited success. AAA games can get by on studio hype alone. Just look at Starfield.
I'd really like to pay you guys for DLCs after release. The game has had so many improvements and updates since I bought it years ago and I considered it worth it already from day 1. You deserve it.
I honestly just hope that they fix all caves. not only floating rocks, but also random rocks that you can pick up by hand (they say "No Item In Foliage")
@@Zollbeamter-ot7ptI thought I had a vad PC which I have 😂 But yes, many caves have misaligned polygons on the ground so you so through the seems and to infinity 😂
I'm sure they will, once they're 100% done moving the terrain and adding foliage. That kind of thing is like sweeping up the sawdust, there's no point doing it halfway through.
You guys, this game is, has been, and continues to be a game that I hold other studios to as a standard. Your commitment to transparency, giving and tempering expectations, and always keeping things upfront with the player base has ben 11/10, top notch. The game is, and always has felt just outstanding and has come so far from when I started playing before fluid dynamics were a thing. I am so excited for this news, and look forward to getting to finally play the fully realized game that you have all worked so hard to make.
I'd like to add that how Coffee Stain Studios has handled their ramp-up to 1.0 has been an absolute master class in how to build trust, community, and excitement. I work in the tabletop game industry, and I am definitely going to use CSS's approach to bringing my next game to market if possible.
And people have the nerve to say gaming is dying, when some of the best studios are this small, putting out quality work that's far better than "AAA Studios" these days.
What are you guys even talking about? Are we playing the same game? This game has barely changed in 2 years. The recent qol are nice but there are still so many lazy unfinished shit.
@@theanthill22 it took them a while but they had to update the unrealengine. there is an insane different between 4 and 8. HOWEVER i personally find it kinda meh when their updates pretty much make the game much easier than in the past. making us remake a new save from scratch. (its a pain to dismantle and rebuild imo after an update)
im so happy and proud to be a part of the satisfactory group. u guys do amazing work. i cant wait to see what else u guys will add and what will come after that. thx for this amazing game.
I genuinely thought they were gonna do one more update (update 9) and then do a release trailer for update 10 but then at the dramatic climax, they would put a dot in between the 1 and 0 to signify 1.0 coming out for the tenth update to the game.
I'm glad 1.0 is the next milestone. The one thing I still really wanted from Satisfactory was to learn what the deal was with all those Mercer Spheres and Somersloops.
Steam says I have played 6000+ hours. But I also tended to let the game run for days. But I suspect I have played over 2000 hours, because for 6 months, it was the only thing I did in my spare time.
Any DLC you release will be an instant buy for me, and I'll be happy to buy it. Ive gotten way more fun out of this game than almost any other game in my library.
i really hope that Jace shows up for the 1.0 release video. would be really see him breaking into coffe stain and trying to uncover the 1.0 secrets along with Snutt
I almost DONT want this day to come, I've enjoyed this Journey SO much. I feel like i wont know what to do with myself once it hits 1.0 and i finish it AGAIN 😂😭😭
As a denizen of the Northern Realms, I think it would be fun to have a snow/"winter" biome, but not sure what it would add to the game other than be aesthetically pleasing to thyn eyes. Maybe something with geothermal?
Yay! I can still remember seeing the trailer and being super hyped to play during the play test weekend! Ended up playing around 46 hours over 3 days that weekend xD This game is so amazing and its come so far! You've all done a have done such an amazing job on it! Quite excited for 1.0 😀
This game has so much potential. Its like factorio but in 3d, alive and vibrant. Imagine if you now had all the mods that you have in factorio but here in satisfactory, that would be so insane. I really cant state enough how much potential the game has.
I am reminded of Kerbal Space Program's development cycle with Satisfactory. That game was put in an early access state in late 2011 and got a release in 2015. Tons of pre-release updates happened in the 4 years between that, with the last two (0.19 and 0.9) being hugely spaced out from previous releases. I just hope Satisfactory ends up as satisfactory as Kerbal Space Program did!
Thanks Snut! Can't wait to see the final product. I bought the game on steam almost 3 years ago now and I still love playing it and trying all the realms as new starting locations!
@@Drillur Do explain yourself. When somebody completely unrelated to you is reserving their own free time to enjoy something they are passionate about, how does this cause feelings of accute embarassment or awkwardness to you?
I have been following the game since update 3, clocked in well over 200 hours, moved factories 3 times (I didn’t want to destroy all of the old factories) and I have loved this game since day one. Thank you for your service, and I will be showing this game to as many people who will listen in the meantime.
I remember buying this game when it first came out on early access on epic and spending an entire week religiously playing through the game lol. It was an amazing time. And now here we are. I have a playthrough on update 8 that's just about near the end and we're already talking about the 1.0 release where I will want another one. Can't wait guys.
Same I bought the game basically as soon as it came out. It was totally worth it, even if it's the only reason I still have Epic Game Store installed on my PC. Actually bought the game again on Steam because I like the game so much. I'll play the official launch there.
I got it right when update 3 came out and I do the same thing. Every update I run through the entire game and when I look up there's another update and I start over again. This has been a wonderful ride for me showing what is still possible in modern gaming
Variants to the space giraffe tick penguin whale thing. I wanna work on my factory, look out into the horizon, see a striped mysterious creature and be like “oh cool, I forgot those existed” and then I imedetly forget what I wanted to do because I’m trying run up to it and screenshot it before he leaves
I spent over £500 building a new PC just so I could play satisfactory ( and other games ngl) I love it so much, it's one of the best EA games I have played, not to mention the community surrounding it. I look forward to 1.0, keep up the awesome work, and thank you to everyone at CSS for making satisfactory the game it is today.🤘🤘
I'm very happy to know this, congratulations to the Coffee Stain team, Satisfactory is a very satisfying game indeed. I've already played more than 800 hours of this game, and I'm definitely going to play another 800 hours in version 1.0 Thank you for this incredible game, and for the incredible support to the community, may more studios be like yours !!!!
I'm a casual player, but you're right, in the future these numbers will go up a lot. Fun fact, in my favorite COD (MW 2019), I don't have more than 400 hours.
Question/Suggestion: I hope you build it in such a way that after completing the "main quest" we're still able to continue playing, keep building and altering our factories with all the end-game blueprints unlocked.
Tears of joy right now. Grateful for this game, those making it, and the community around it. I cannot wait to experience what the actual story of the game is going to be and have that context as to what we've been partially working towards the last several years. I'm here for it.
Being open about the development is what kept me hooked to this game. Apart from figuring out my first nuclear plant, I really enjoyed the logistical puzzle behind it.
I hope any kids get to study Satisfactory as a case study in proper project management and taking feedback from customers. You guys have done an amazing job
Lazers and guns on all the buildings sounded pretty sick to me. Same goes for farming! Going to be a great year for the game no matter what is in store for us. Good luck Coffee Stain on this major push to 1.0!
came here to get some info on the roadmap and release and what I got is a wanna-be-funny community manager. about a minute of gibberish talk ( 2:17 - 3:00) seriously? I know this guy has to show something for the salary and I don't care if he wastes your studio's time and money but don't let him waste the time of your customers! It is not even done well but there are encoding artifacts in the video I am now at 3:30 and there was 10 seconds of information and 3:20 of community manager trying to be funny?! interesting?! annoying! Ok, you can define development phases as you like but releasing a game three years ago into early access is NOT an alpha version. I finished the video now and there was absolutely no, no, absolutely no, information. And the first half of the video was complete BS or was something that was mentioned to be implemented real? And you cannot even say the quarter release 1.0 will be released? So the community guy had to do something and they told him to make a 8 minutes video to tell us one line of information. I try to imagine the situation... 'hey community guy, make a video about this one liner on this post-it' What did he think? 'oh, f* how can I fill a video with this?!' or 'great, I always wanted to talk BS for several minutes straight' at least it made me laugh (about the ridiculous video and me wasting even more time for this BS)
lol the beginning reminded me of 7 days to die talking about updates coming forever in early access lol. But congrats on coming to this point! Super proud of you guys and I remember getting excited for this game the moment it hit the gaming showcase :)
Snutt, I swear these videos are like the best thing on RUclips *dabs*. You're production on this is so good. Keep it up. I can't wait to hear what's in store for 1.0. Cheers to Coffee Stain for this great game! Laser, er I mean Later!
I, long ago completed all the tiers and set myself the goal of making a major factory that makes every component the Build Gun uses -- once I finish it (it's very near completion) I'm probably going to stop playing and wait for 1.0 and new content where I plan on starting from scratch.
when I saw 2026 I was a bit sad! you got me. this is the one company I will support DLC. you guys have earned it. never felt so included in a games development before. what on earth would the first DLC be though? lasers?
I bought Satisfactory back when it just released on Epic. Had a lot of fun for a few hundreds of hours but couldn't keep playing without a narrative. That's just the way I felt. I loved the game and kept an eye on every single release and I'm happy to hear about the final story being added into the game. Can't wait to get my hands on the game again!!!!
Man this has been an amazing journey and I'm glad I was a part of it. I'm really excited for the 1.0 release and I'm definitely going to start a new playthrough when it comes out. Crossing fingers for a closed beta access 🤞
Been playing Satisfactory since update 2! Just wet myself, nearly choked on my drink when Snutt said "Lasers" and gun emplacements on everything and now having to reinstall my bawain... err, rain, err, brain! :)
Now that there's pretty much no pipe hype, I'm hoping to look forward to light hype. laser beams sound really cool and i can't wait to see more of them in the next couple updates that will definitely come out within the next couple months
If I had one wish to make, would be to have this game evolve into something like space engineers, where you would have all the factories working on the planet, and finally be able to run to space, just to find more planets with different resources, and keep building from that, but having your already constructed bases feeding some of the materials of the new bases, until the very final construction would turn to be a dyson sphere, haversting energy from the star of that system and beaming it up back to our home galaxy.
had a good laugh at the dab :D I love you guys, you are so amazing! It has been an honour being able to play Satisfactory for years now and I'm so happy with all the updates that came along! Keep up the good work :)
Video starts at 3:58. You're welcome lol. They think it's funny to trick us into thinking they're finally adding base defense elements.(something some friends of mine have been waiting for before playing.) Made me look pretty silly calling my bro over just to lie to him lol. That said. I love the game. Incredible work.
I agree. Base defense (in some capacity) is something a lot of people wish this game had, so pretty stupid to mock the idea when it would actually improve the game.
Been a fan since the early alphas of 2019, and have logged somewhere around 500-600 hours so far, across multiple updates and a couple multiplayer servers with friends. Haven't touched it since the blueprint update now though, mostly because I've been waiting for this piece of news. I'm ready to play at least another 5-600 hours, but I want it to be in 1.0, and now we're finally (hopefully) getting there! Also thank all of you at CSS for the work that's gone into this over the years, you've really set the bar for Early Access games going forward.
Я помню какой игра была в начале в 2019,и что стало сейчас в 2024 , играя в 4 к на ультра настройках стало так красиво в игре+ анриал 5. Очень круто! Молодцы!👍
Mannnn I still remember when the first version of the game came out, I just had 3 teeth removed and I was still a little high from the anasthesia but the moment I saw gameplay of it I was COMPLETELY hooked, and I've only been playing more and more over the years! It's amazing to know that I've stuck around long enough to get to see this game actually become fully featured and I'm sure the future of satisfactory is brighter than ever before!
Satisfactory definitely had a roadmap at the start. It was taken down within the first year when the website got an overhaul. It featured having all full tiers, a story and an end goal, among other things. Which are all still on the invisible roadmap as of today. EDIT: Waybackmachine yourself to September of 2019 and the navigation banner at the top of the website features the roadmap.
1.0 to come out in 2024. Additional content as DLC. That’s my takeaway, and with the work they’ve done, not upset about it. They can have more of my money. That’s fine. Good lads. Great game. Thank you for you all your hard work.
This is beyond exciting. As someone who has played this game since release into early access, it’s so :satisfying: to see it actually get to the point where it’s on schedule for full release. Thank you to the teams who have put so much life and love into this game over the past few years, I can’t wait to see what you all have in store for 1.0! 💜💜💜
Congratulations! So excited for you to reach this milestone. Satisfactory is by far one of my favourite games ever. The team at Coffee Stain are incredible and since becoming a CM myself I'm constantly inspired by everything you do. Cant wait to see everything you've been working on for so long, you're gonna absolutely smash it 🥰
You guys mada a great game. And even manahged to make it look polished while in EA. And the communication with the community was one of the reasons people stuck around for years.
Had a great laugh at the first part. Genuinely excited to see what happens next! As always, absolutely love the interaction with the community and seeing how CSS cares about this game and its players!

They are likable because they actually like us. Nowadays big developers hate us for wanting good games and for wanting some of our ideas implemented. They practically say it out loud. So when a developer comes along that listens and implements and all the things it’s mind boggling and we find them likable. Weird how it’s always the smaller companies that make the best games.
@@Stray.. the big companies can afford to lose some customers. It is never that 50% of potential customers won‘t buy a product. The most of them are complaining, but unfortunately the most of them buy the game anyway
@@razank8996 That is definitely a huge part of the problem. Even people who said they would NEVER buy Ark Ascended bought it. Same with all the Skyrim rereleases. So yeah we, as gamers, share in the blame.
That’s exactly why Bethesda feels okay about releasing the train wreck Starfield. They knew everyone was highly anticipating it and that all of them would buy it so who cares how it plays or how outdated it is.
I wish more studios took notice of how CSS does it with their early access and their interaction with the player-base. I joined the journey a bit later than others, and I regret not joining sooner because the bit I've been around with has been just amazing. Thank you for giving me hope that there might be game developers out there with the same dedication and love for their craft
I think most of the issues why companies can't do exactly what coffee stain studio does is because the community is just friendlier and understanding.
Most of the games usually house people with massive egos
To this day I still find Update 4 to be a “new” thing. Seeing update 9 (1.0) so close is hard to grasp. Godspeed you crazy pioneers.
so close? lol i bet its 6 months out or more. fall release at best imo.
I'm sure it will be out in time for Christmas, and that will still beat every other major gaming house by years LOL
bro I'm still not over update 3
@@NotHappening-b8tIf you've been playing since the beginning, then yes this is very close. I was expecting other updates not a full release until 2025.
@@NotHappening-b8t Yes, this is close compared to launch. Did you just blow in from stupid town?
I can’t believe how cool the golf clubs look!
I'm 56 and have been playing games on my Commodore 64 for a long time. There have been very few games that hooked me. I have over 2000 hours in this game. I'd say this has hooked me.
That's amazing! I didn't even know Satisfactory could run on a Commodore 64!
@@trickster721 😂😂😂
I just realized that if there’s gonna be a way to complete the game then that means that there will also be Satisfactory speed runs
LMAO we got trolled hard in that begining hahahahaha. Such a relief
I 100% though it was real. Guns of vehicules are logic there is a lot of "factorio games" where there is a constant need for defeding against some alien forms of life
dude i was so hyped for lizard doggo dating sim
Beginning gave me a 'inspired by Pal world' feel, just because of the "add guns to everything".
But it was a good one.
You should have known he was spotting BS since they already said that update 8 was probably the last update before version 1.0 a year ago when they discussed the new branch system they were using to prepare for update 1.0.
@@vincewilson1 Honestly, I wasn't there for last year's video.
I was here for the journey since update 3. It's been an awesome ride to get to 1.0, and I can't wait to see what CSS has planned for the future!
Update 2 for me! Its incredible to go back to my old screenshots and just see how much the game has evolved already!
Same man, been going since update 3 too brother
@@verios44 I've been here since the 4th update! Patch 2018-10-27, not update 4. I don't even think we had tier 4 back then... you kids with your new fangled hypertubes! Back in my day if you wanted to get somewhere you had to WALK!
Also I was too scared to take screenshots because I was under NDA(well I at least agreed not to share screenshots nor stream it, idk if it was actually legally binding but I wasn't about to fucking find out) :/ I kinda wish I did take some screenshots for myself.
@@Dr_Andracca Some of my earliest memories is when oil was in barrels and belted.
@@verios44 It is weird that Is till think of pipes as "new", even though the vast majority of my gametime has been after they were added. Same with Minecraft and the Nether... goddamn I'm old. Hell, I still catch myself thinking to be careful with boats because they used to break into sticks if you looked at them wrong.
In my entire gaming life, I've never seen something like Satisfactory. Thank you, Coffee Stain, thank you, community friends, I feel so grateful for this experience. This game really changed my life
For me it has changed my perspective and has shown me that I can still expect great things from gaming companies instead of being spoon-fed the same old broken mess over and over again. It seems like only indie developers are able to accomplish this these days. This is a great game with a great concept and wonderful graphics that I can play on my potato computer. Can't say that about many others
@@malumphasma indie games have to be amazing otherwise they will see very limited success. AAA games can get by on studio hype alone. Just look at Starfield.
@@malumphasma Well, you can say it about Factorio. You won't find a better optimized game anywhere. This coming from a software developer.
I'd really like to pay you guys for DLCs after release. The game has had so many improvements and updates since I bought it years ago and I considered it worth it already from day 1. You deserve it.
Perhaps a golf DLC? 😆
I honestly just hope that they fix all caves. not only floating rocks, but also random rocks that you can pick up by hand (they say "No Item In Foliage")
They mentioned previously that they have been doing some final touchups on the world.
also clipping under the ground by running into small crevices in caves
@@Zollbeamter-ot7pt oh yeah, missaligned ground too lol
@@Zollbeamter-ot7ptI thought I had a vad PC which I have 😂 But yes, many caves have misaligned polygons on the ground so you so through the seems and to infinity 😂
I'm sure they will, once they're 100% done moving the terrain and adding foliage. That kind of thing is like sweeping up the sawdust, there's no point doing it halfway through.
This has made my day!
Did your day required making?

You guys, this game is, has been, and continues to be a game that I hold other studios to as a standard. Your commitment to transparency, giving and tempering expectations, and always keeping things upfront with the player base has ben 11/10, top notch. The game is, and always has felt just outstanding and has come so far from when I started playing before fluid dynamics were a thing. I am so excited for this news, and look forward to getting to finally play the fully realized game that you have all worked so hard to make.
I'd like to add that how Coffee Stain Studios has handled their ramp-up to 1.0 has been an absolute master class in how to build trust, community, and excitement. I work in the tabletop game industry, and I am definitely going to use CSS's approach to bringing my next game to market if possible.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight
And people have the nerve to say gaming is dying, when some of the best studios are this small, putting out quality work that's far better than "AAA Studios" these days.
What are you guys even talking about? Are we playing the same game? This game has barely changed in 2 years. The recent qol are nice but there are still so many lazy unfinished shit.
@@theanthill22 it took them a while but they had to update the unrealengine. there is an insane different between 4 and 8.
HOWEVER i personally find it kinda meh when their updates pretty much make the game much easier than in the past. making us remake a new save from scratch. (its a pain to dismantle and rebuild imo after an update)
im so happy and proud to be a part of the satisfactory group. u guys do amazing work. i cant wait to see what else u guys will add and what will come after that. thx for this amazing game.
I genuinely thought they were gonna do one more update (update 9) and then do a release trailer for update 10 but then at the dramatic climax, they would put a dot in between the 1 and 0 to signify 1.0 coming out for the tenth update to the game.
That would have been my wish as well!
They might change their ideas after this comment :D
I'm glad 1.0 is the next milestone. The one thing I still really wanted from Satisfactory was to learn what the deal was with all those Mercer Spheres and Somersloops.
not only the spheres and sloops, a use for the dam SAM ore.
wait a few more years
dont forget about quantum computers and superposition oscillators.

Good news
Never played a game for so many hours... And it's early access .. can't wait to see what's next
Steam says I have played 6000+ hours. But I also tended to let the game run for days. But I suspect I have played over 2000 hours, because for 6 months, it was the only thing I did in my spare time.
1:30 dudes just gonna straight up liberate this world, imagine fighting over the oil in multiplayer
Any DLC you release will be an instant buy for me, and I'll be happy to buy it. Ive gotten way more fun out of this game than almost any other game in my library.
i really hope that Jace shows up for the 1.0 release video. would be really see him breaking into coffe stain and trying to uncover the 1.0 secrets along with Snutt
You're a hero with that idea! Let's push that comment 😅
I will fully support this comment

@@Hydrano A hero?
I almost DONT want this day to come, I've enjoyed this Journey SO much. I feel like i wont know what to do with myself once it hits 1.0 and i finish it AGAIN 😂😭😭
i feel with you Mr donut. Was a good time to follow you guys. Which you all the best for the reslease.
Can't wait for the STORY!!!!
I have a sneaking suspicions that lasers are going to be added 7:54
This was a clever setup all along! Snutt is a genius
You are a great community ambassador and your outreach crew is awesome.
A new planet in a dlc would be awesome.
That's a great idea. Or maybe the planet's moon!
Feels waaay out of scope to me tbh. That sort of thing ought to be the domain of mods or _maybe_ dlc
i had the exact same idea and thought about it a lot while playing. i think its possible
As a denizen of the Northern Realms, I think it would be fun to have a snow/"winter" biome, but not sure what it would add to the game other than be aesthetically pleasing to thyn eyes. Maybe something with geothermal?
Maybe a planet where you can fly there and play golf 🤣
The factory must grow. One of my favorite games of all time. Thank you CSS, I cant wait for this!
Yay! I can still remember seeing the trailer and being super hyped to play during the play test weekend! Ended up playing around 46 hours over 3 days that weekend xD
This game is so amazing and its come so far! You've all done a have done such an amazing job on it! Quite excited for 1.0 😀
This game has so much potential. Its like factorio but in 3d, alive and vibrant. Imagine if you now had all the mods that you have in factorio but here in satisfactory, that would be so insane. I really cant state enough how much potential the game has.
I am reminded of Kerbal Space Program's development cycle with Satisfactory. That game was put in an early access state in late 2011 and got a release in 2015. Tons of pre-release updates happened in the 4 years between that, with the last two (0.19 and 0.9) being hugely spaced out from previous releases. I just hope Satisfactory ends up as satisfactory as Kerbal Space Program did!
CSS you guys rock, I am excited for the 1.0 release. Thanks Snutt helps a lot!
you guys deep ROCK galactic
Thanks Snut! Can't wait to see the final product. I bought the game on steam almost 3 years ago now and I still love playing it and trying all the realms as new starting locations!
I'm going to schedule a two ween vacation when 1.0 is released xD

I have been following the game since update 3, clocked in well over 200 hours, moved factories 3 times (I didn’t want to destroy all of the old factories) and I have loved this game since day one. Thank you for your service, and I will be showing this game to as many people who will listen in the meantime.
200 hours? those sir are rookie numbers. You need to pump those up.
Yea im about 1800hrs on my current map, and ive not exceeded turbo fuel yet, nuclear is setup but not needed
200 hours? So you're a new player? Welcome.
@@thedemolimo i thought my 300 was a good amount. im a bit slow so just done nuclear
Im about 900 hours deep and its still the best game ever
I remember buying this game when it first came out on early access on epic and spending an entire week religiously playing through the game lol. It was an amazing time. And now here we are. I have a playthrough on update 8 that's just about near the end and we're already talking about the 1.0 release where I will want another one. Can't wait guys.
Same I bought the game basically as soon as it came out. It was totally worth it, even if it's the only reason I still have Epic Game Store installed on my PC. Actually bought the game again on Steam because I like the game so much. I'll play the official launch there.
I got it right when update 3 came out and I do the same thing. Every update I run through the entire game and when I look up there's another update and I start over again. This has been a wonderful ride for me showing what is still possible in modern gaming
Variants to the space giraffe tick penguin whale thing. I wanna work on my factory, look out into the horizon, see a striped mysterious creature and be like “oh cool, I forgot those existed” and then I imedetly forget what I wanted to do because I’m trying run up to it and screenshot it before he leaves
I spent over £500 building a new PC just so I could play satisfactory ( and other games ngl) I love it so much, it's one of the best EA games I have played, not to mention the community surrounding it. I look forward to 1.0, keep up the awesome work, and thank you to everyone at CSS for making satisfactory the game it is today.🤘🤘
I'm very happy to know this, congratulations to the Coffee Stain team, Satisfactory is a very satisfying game indeed.
I've already played more than 800 hours of this game, and I'm definitely going to play another 800 hours in version 1.0
Thank you for this incredible game, and for the incredible support to the community, may more studios be like yours !!!!
You gotta bump those numbers up man, those are rookie numbers
I'm a casual player, but you're right, in the future these numbers will go up a lot.
Fun fact, in my favorite COD (MW 2019), I don't have more than 400 hours.
Hopefully we have something to go on for those alien artifacts and SAM ore we've been collecting this entire time.
2:55 is my PC when all of this comes. Appreciate your work guys, kepp going
i remember playing this when it first came out i love seeing how far the game has come and im in love with the game
So psyched for this! I might actually record a series if i can get some more people involved.
Question/Suggestion: I hope you build it in such a way that after completing the "main quest" we're still able to continue playing, keep building and altering our factories with all the end-game blueprints unlocked.
Tears of joy right now. Grateful for this game, those making it, and the community around it.
I cannot wait to experience what the actual story of the game is going to be and have that context as to what we've been partially working towards the last several years. I'm here for it.
Being open about the development is what kept me hooked to this game. Apart from figuring out my first nuclear plant, I really enjoyed the logistical puzzle behind it.
I hope any kids get to study Satisfactory as a case study in proper project management and taking feedback from customers. You guys have done an amazing job
lol!
I cannot wait for the patch notes video and the whole satisfactory 1.0 cinematic trailer made by our beloved Community Managers
HOLY SHIT!!! DUDE take your time cuz ITS THE FINAL UPDATE(for now). SO HYPED
i got a heart by CSS, wait until 1.0, play though satisfactory and my bucket-list is done. thank you for all your work
Aint no way its Koga@@T4L1NU5
Lazers and guns on all the buildings sounded pretty sick to me. Same goes for farming! Going to be a great year for the game no matter what is in store for us. Good luck Coffee Stain on this major push to 1.0!
Waiting for the golfing update. ⛳️
I'm waiting for the other planets DLC 😝
'I hope your a** excited as we are'
I also listened to that part twice.
came here to get some info on the roadmap and release and what I got is a wanna-be-funny community manager.
about a minute of gibberish talk ( 2:17 - 3:00) seriously?
I know this guy has to show something for the salary and I don't care if he wastes your studio's time and money but don't let him waste the time of your customers!
It is not even done well but there are encoding artifacts in the video
I am now at 3:30 and there was 10 seconds of information and 3:20 of community manager trying to be funny?! interesting?! annoying!
Ok, you can define development phases as you like but releasing a game three years ago into early access is NOT an alpha version.
I finished the video now and there was absolutely no, no, absolutely no, information.
And the first half of the video was complete BS or was something that was mentioned to be implemented real?
And you cannot even say the quarter release 1.0 will be released?
So the community guy had to do something and they told him to make a 8 minutes video to tell us one line of information.
I try to imagine the situation... 'hey community guy, make a video about this one liner on this post-it'
What did he think? 'oh, f* how can I fill a video with this?!' or 'great, I always wanted to talk BS for several minutes straight'
at least it made me laugh (about the ridiculous video and me wasting even more time for this BS)
Great news, the LASER beams sounded kinda dope tho ngl
lol the beginning reminded me of 7 days to die talking about updates coming forever in early access lol.
But congrats on coming to this point! Super proud of you guys and I remember getting excited for this game the moment it hit the gaming showcase :)
Snutt, I swear these videos are like the best thing on RUclips *dabs*. You're production on this is so good. Keep it up. I can't wait to hear what's in store for 1.0. Cheers to Coffee Stain for this great game! Laser, er I mean Later!
Will you still play this when 1.0 is out?
Have you even started playing Satisfactory? Or have you been waiting for 1.0?
I have 1237 hrs but apparently I won't be playing 1.0 because my rig can't handle the switch to Unreal 5. I miss Satisfactory.
@@BarBar3arthat's unsatisfactory :(
I, long ago completed all the tiers and set myself the goal of making a major factory that makes every component the Build Gun uses -- once I finish it (it's very near completion) I'm probably going to stop playing and wait for 1.0 and new content where I plan on starting from scratch.
I did several playthroughs up through update 5 or 6 or so, then decided to wait for 1.0
when I saw 2026 I was a bit sad! you got me. this is the one company I will support DLC. you guys have earned it. never felt so included in a games development before. what on earth would the first DLC be though? lasers?
I bought Satisfactory back when it just released on Epic. Had a lot of fun for a few hundreds of hours but couldn't keep playing without a narrative. That's just the way I felt.
I loved the game and kept an eye on every single release and I'm happy to hear about the final story being added into the game. Can't wait to get my hands on the game again!!!!
Man this has been an amazing journey and I'm glad I was a part of it.
I'm really excited for the 1.0 release and I'm definitely going to start a new playthrough when it comes out. Crossing fingers for a closed beta access 🤞
Wait, so the romance options are... off the table? Asking for a friend.
Been playing Satisfactory since update 2! Just wet myself, nearly choked on my drink when Snutt said "Lasers" and gun emplacements on everything and now having to reinstall my bawain... err, rain, err, brain! :)
Now that there's pretty much no pipe hype, I'm hoping to look forward to light hype. laser beams sound really cool and i can't wait to see more of them in the next couple updates that will definitely come out within the next couple months
If I had one wish to make, would be to have this game evolve into something like space engineers, where you would have all the factories working on the planet, and finally be able to run to space, just to find more planets with different resources, and keep building from that, but having your already constructed bases feeding some of the materials of the new bases, until the very final construction would turn to be a dyson sphere, haversting energy from the star of that system and beaming it up back to our home galaxy.
had a good laugh at the dab :D
I love you guys, you are so amazing! It has been an honour being able to play Satisfactory for years now and I'm so happy with all the updates that came along!
Keep up the good work :)
cant wait to see this
Am I the only one thinking Snutt couldn't wait for the April 1st video?
Thanks to every single Person who helped the Team to release this Game and manage it sooo nice! Just saying Thanks for this Game! Thank you!
Video starts at 3:58. You're welcome lol. They think it's funny to trick us into thinking they're finally adding base defense elements.(something some friends of mine have been waiting for before playing.) Made me look pretty silly calling my bro over just to lie to him lol. That said. I love the game. Incredible work.
I agree. Base defense (in some capacity) is something a lot of people wish this game had, so pretty stupid to mock the idea when it would actually improve the game.
Been a fan since the early alphas of 2019, and have logged somewhere around 500-600 hours so far, across multiple updates and a couple multiplayer servers with friends.
Haven't touched it since the blueprint update now though, mostly because I've been waiting for this piece of news.
I'm ready to play at least another 5-600 hours, but I want it to be in 1.0, and now we're finally (hopefully) getting there!
Also thank all of you at CSS for the work that's gone into this over the years, you've really set the bar for Early Access games going forward.

Mannnn I still remember when the first version of the game came out, I just had 3 teeth removed and I was still a little high from the anasthesia but the moment I saw gameplay of it I was COMPLETELY hooked, and I've only been playing more and more over the years! It's amazing to know that I've stuck around long enough to get to see this game actually become fully featured and I'm sure the future of satisfactory is brighter than ever before!
Snutt wasn't kidding about all those Lasers
its wild to realize that ive been playing the game since update 3, so much has changed and its crazy to look back on it.
Satisfactory definitely had a roadmap at the start. It was taken down within the first year when the website got an overhaul.
It featured having all full tiers, a story and an end goal, among other things. Which are all still on the invisible roadmap as of today.
EDIT: Waybackmachine yourself to September of 2019 and the navigation banner at the top of the website features the roadmap.
1.0 to come out in 2024. Additional content as DLC. That’s my takeaway, and with the work they’ve done, not upset about it. They can have more of my money. That’s fine. Good lads. Great game. Thank you for you all your hard work.
This is beyond exciting. As someone who has played this game since release into early access, it’s so :satisfying: to see it actually get to the point where it’s on schedule for full release. Thank you to the teams who have put so much life and love into this game over the past few years, I can’t wait to see what you all have in store for 1.0! 💜💜💜
This is something ive been waiting for when it comes to playing satisfactory, been here since update 3 and ive loved it all the way
Try not release it when factorio 2.0 is coming.
I played at launch and the game was really good, keen to loop back at launch and see everything that changed.
