Wow great video! This has to be made by the same guys who make the Bobs/Angels mods for Factorio (Yes, I was a Factorio guy for YEARS!). I'm gonna have to try this just to compare it to the Bobs/Angels Factorio mods. They use alot of the same ore names, and ingot types and machine types as their Factorio mods. Thanks for this! You should keep going for a while, at least through Oil processing and usage.
Thanks, and yeah a lot of people said that, I think it is the same guy. And I did continue I even got a new video out if you want to take a look at it it's up to you 🙂
Good to see you do another video on this. Looong comment within.. As I've completed this mod I can perhaps answer some parts. - I started in the desert too, did a mini factory layout, sprawled to swamps one way and spire the other. - SF+ takes aproxx 250hrs to complete if it takes 80hrs to complete vanilla. - Farming is 40 - 60hrs on its own by the same measure. - Farming requires about 150 mk2 farms with a few doggo houses. (I did mine at the end of the swamp as I needed tonnes of water) - About 180k mw for power to get to end. - By the end I had setup 600 solidifer and coolers. Color referencing pipes to the fluid does wonders for remaining mental sanity. (I had a hex sheet for all the colors ) - You are in the thick of it atm, these next two tiers would likely take at least 4 - 6 vid uploads. - If you continue now, you likely won't finish it by release YET a) You'll beat Bitz on how far he got b) Be uber prepared for release and c) when you do return to the save, you'll have a good 60hrs left which gives a great fall back. Now do you continue.. Imo absolutely 💯 yet dont burn yourself out, its a marathon not a sprint.
Man, that is some good information... and makes me feel like i should push myself to complete it before 1.0. Now will i be able to... idk, but sure makes me want to i can tell you that. That being said, i am 100h in at the moment, and i dont like the complexity of mam tree with the crazy glowing rocks, but so far its not as bad as i thought it would be from first glance. sad part is, i really wanted to work on some artwork before 1.0 and this mod is pulling me away from that. so who knows i might just stop to work on that.
@@DrawingXaos I think that's Unstable Quantum Crystals. That's like Uranium to find. Don't worry it gets better, some require Nuclear Pasta in that tree, not just 20 or 30 eithier. It's the last one to be unlocked usually.
@DrawingXaos I can't remember it being used for anything to otherwise complete the game, and if it did, I wouldn't worry about it for now, and it would only be the first few. As I recall, it's mainly to quickly transfer items long distances.
@@DrawingXaos I LOVE your excel spreadsheet that you showed off in the past, I use it all the time. It would be cool if you show some ratios off and how you balance out your factories in this mod nothing crazy though since I know it’s insane ha ha! I want to play the mod in the future myself, probably once I get my play through of 1.0 finished.
@@sethlikesgreen funnly enough, i did not spread sheet this out. i kinda just went for it. but yeah, once 1.0 comes out this mod will be put on the back buner until its time.
love to see more, im struggle in tier 4 and my computer already crying out of the complication, same as my brain, off for a few days before dive into the complete mess again until unlocking tier 5 and 6, this mod bring in a total new experience as compare to vanilla which i love it
And even if you just talked about the main bulletpoints, the complexity is insane. For instance youll be hand crafting almost everything in tier 1 and most of tier 2. Not nessesarily because its faster but because you cannot make the buildings to produce the stuff you need yet. The amount of "But wait there's more..." moments doesnt stop, they multiply. If you are the type of gamer that can deal with shifting ore prosessing from sloppy handcrafting -> crushing -> sorting -> molten in the span of 4 tiers, this game if for you. As a comparison the ore names are the same as Angel Bob mod for Factorio (same modders, same complexity).
I like the videos man, good script, nice visuals, logical/easy to follow flow... Just one criticism/improvement you need to make, the pacing with your speaking makes me feel like im off a xan lmao. I litreally watch your videos at x1.25 playback speed, which is only 5℅ too fast, but at lesst it doesnt feel like your sonically edging me with a dry hj... Please speed ur videos up by 15-20% in post or jus talk faster man please 🙏 If you dont believe me or assume this is bs , watch this back yourself at 1.25x PLEASE Thank you, i like the videos and want to watch em without hanging on full second pauses between words
The main reason I say this... I think you only get some of the ad revenue or less watch time because of this ? (Even if I watch the whole video) Correct me if I'm wrong, happy to just change the playback speed
Filler episodes in youtube? god damn it.... im kinda expecting the series to end at any moment since either the youtuber in question gives up halfway there or they delve into madness and make like 45 episodes before they even start farming... so would be a nice change if one actually finished a play though of the mod in a reasonable time frame
@@DrawingXaos totally. That first playthrough is a doozy. I don't know anyone personally who didn't struggle. Each tier adds another layer of complexity. Their 3 I belive starts you on building large factories to support larger ones. I made a blueprint just to make sand to power oil processing/power plants. Which is a 4 floor factory. Oil, Cobalt, and Aluminum are your last hurdles before the end game titanium. I had to use a 3 corner intersection of biomes' resources just to make titanium function. Efficient logistical networks and building big the first time around are really the way to go. Unlock quantum crystals asap; teleportation is super useful. Literally 5 seconds long.
and funny enough, i couldnt get into foundry... but this mod is way over the top. I think cuz the base game is more straight forward it makes it a lot better starting the mod
@@DrawingXaos I wanted to like Foundry but like you it didn't click with me although once you make it to mid game there are some cool buildings and work flows
@@Rogerfoulger yeah but its hard to get to mid game and if i cant even play the base game with enthusiasm then how can i even go that far right. maybe after a few updates it might get better who knows
Now with oil, you will loose every bit of your remaining sanity. Keep going!
hahaha, fair enough. lol

@@pllot7072 if i dont need it to build things, i might just skip it. it is pissing me off everytime i touch it lol

so true, was happy to start but now im wondering if its even worth it to continue.

yeah, it really does take a specific type of person to play this mod. but it also is so well done as well.
@@DrawingXaos Im just playing it to pass time with something fresh before 1.0.
Definitly not disapointed and there is no reason not to give it a shot.
@@Bezerker1181 so true. really does make the job more interesting also, i do want some of this in the main game, like farming and slug farms.
"Time to kill" ... Is that what you named the doggos? Lol.. love the recap
lol i saved them... in a different time line lol

Interesting, i never thought of that. sometimes i feel like i talk to much to quickly. i will look into it, thank you.
Glad you're back.
Thanks 😊
Filler episodes in youtube?
god damn it....
im kinda expecting the series to end at any moment since either the youtuber in question gives up halfway there or they delve into madness and make like 45 episodes before they even start farming... so would be a nice change if one actually finished a play though of the mod in a reasonable time frame
lol, i do know what you mean. i went to make a recap before starting the next ep and realized just to recap the bullet points it was a full ep.
id love to see more! but keep your eye on 1.0. you dont want to burn yourself out.
Thanks.
The best way to play Satisfactory.
and lose your mind in the process lol

crazy, i am hating the crystals. Hopfully i found a good way around it but this mod sure likes to throw in a bunch of curve balls.
Wanna keep your sanity , dont even look at oil
lol, might be too late....
I decided that i like this game and would like it to stay that way. Computers are a nightmare. solder wire!!
agreed. but the nice thing about this is i can play the mod to appreciate what the game is. like, thank god they didnt go down this route lol
@@DrawingXaos 🤣🤣🤣
seems a lot of inspiration from Foundry
and funny enough, i couldnt get into foundry... but this mod is way over the top. I think cuz the base game is more straight forward it makes it a lot better starting the mod
@@DrawingXaos I wanted to like Foundry but like you it didn't click with me although once you make it to mid game there are some cool buildings and work flows
@@Rogerfoulger yeah but its hard to get to mid game and if i cant even play the base game with enthusiasm then how can i even go that far right. maybe after a few updates it might get better who knows
I'd like to see more :)
thanks.
YT Algorithm is the best!
lol, it has it's moments
Pls keep going
I will, lets just hope my mind can handle it. lol
