Step 2: Build a log cabin.
Step 3: Relax after a job well done and enjoy your retirement from space adventuring.
Title: How to retire on Akua in Empyrion Galactic Survival
@@NoroDoubleZero9 Yeah, Akua is far to nice of a planet / moon/ planetoid. there should be a world ending event that happens there to prevent people from just ending the game.
@woodlanditguy2951 a world ending event could be a interesting concept, I wander if it would ever be possible to end a world in Empyrion Galactic Survival
@@NoroDoubleZero9 I mean, not completely destroy the whole moon, just make it not desirable to stay there. The storyline suggests that "the Obelisks" can call in fleets of enemy ships, I wonder if they could create an event that calls in numerous alien destroyers that would decimate a player base after several hours of gameplay.
This would give real incentive to leave the starter worlds and go build somewhere else.
Being that Zascosium, Estrium, Cobalt, Neodymium and Promethium are no where to be found in any real amounts on the first 4 starter moons, there would be no way to defend against an onslaught of enemy attacks.
i literally did that my last play through. built on the top of one of those cliffs overlooking the lake. it was nice
I like the addition of NPCs interacting with the environment more. The Polaris guard at the Research Ship even appeared to have taken damage from the Ice Golem. And I'm glad the new hover bike is a bit janky. Proves it's a true off-spring of the motorbike.
yeah, having animals chasing you around a heavily fortified polaris base always seemed odd - especially when firing at them risked hitting stuff you really dont want to
To be fair it was less janky in the 1.10 release candidate 2 beta build build when I checked it out. The only thing that was a bit janky was the hoverbike could kind of fly using the forward engines. Basically I'd angle the bike a bit upwards and the forward thrust could get the bike way higher than its hover height was so long as you didn't stop moving. I downloaded the full 1.10 public release yesterday and was sad to see "Fix: Hoverbike can fly" in the patch notes. Whatever they did to the hoverbike to prevent it flying makes the ride cam jitter up and down rapidly when I go any direction on it except reverse.
the hoverbike. not the hero we deserved. but the hero we needed.
Especially since it was so easy for me to acquire on my new game today. Found this hidden gem for $3 and it's quite interesting
Another tip to beginners, generally you keep your action bar when you die. So keep your primary ammo on your action bar in case you need to fight your way back to your loot after death.
You know, I'm increasingly confused by the fact that there are Humans all over the place and the fact that your character or AI doesn't seem confused or interested in this:)
There was some lore about that, cant quite remember what it was but suffice to say, they have limited NPC assets at the moment so try not to think too much :P
@@Spanj Oh okay, makes sense. To be fair a lot of the dialogue and names (especially some of the shops!) makes it sound like the NPCs are Human anyway.
As a beginner I quickly learned that the best base is an underground base. However, thats certainly not necessary on Akua as nothing comes close to your base,
Thanks for this SPanj, I have 3k hours but that was a long time ago. Kept the game on my machine and your video has encouraged me to start a new game.
That was a stellar find getting that combat shotgun! A good comprehensive starting guide, nice job!
ikr! Lucked out!
Great to see you do another guide. The more people, that can be brought in to the game, the better. Well done and thank you.
If you ever get insane amounts of stone from mining whatever, you can also harvest trees, make an industry base and make enormous amounts of ammunition, stacks of 4000's of all kinds. Leftovers can make motors, which are much lighter weight and use carbon substrate, iron, copper and silicon for the factory, while reducing construction time - until you make another build, once time is down to 1 second its best to add regular ingots - time resets every production and ingots give no time bonus, only finished parts.
"We are always interested in your backyard" best line today!🤣
28:38 You don't need armor locker to equip armor and boosts as well on a light armor, just open inventory and slap it. Armor locker is for mediums and higher stuff :D
Keep up great content and channel Spanj, hope to see more good stuff
"Releasing claymore roomba" Dang it now some poor innocent bystander is going to get blown up because you entered their bathroom.
Shame on you Spanj... At the beginning I was... "Loot the golem!" and then I watched it de-spawn. But great video... And it was daylight at the beginning :D
Great timing, I just bought this for a couple of friends.
Really good video 🙂 Just an FYI, the Knowledge thingy gave you access to the Obelisk. Each moon has one and it contains Teleporters between them.
Thank you Spanj for a entertaining and helpful series as always. Thank you Gizmo and Spanjette for participaiting - that was very helpful, too 🥰
Oh and for your own and our sanity: Build yourself a multi-tool!
Just tried starting a new game for the first time in months. Default settings, default start.
Got my ass handed to me at least fifty times by wandering drones and velociraptors. And then by hunger because I started living underground to stay safe.
Hollowed out a mountain with the hand drill to produce enough materials from crushed stone to have any chance against the drones.
O_o
If possible, and assuming you have a weapon, do your best to get under the drone and shoot it from below, it cant shoot you if you can get under it. But also don't sweat it too much, I have been in plenty of drone related death loops myself, it happens.
Fairly certain you can put boosts in light armor without armor locker. Thanks for the video!!
It's nice that they've added more live NPC factions including Polaris to the starting planets. It was rather lonesome scavenging alone on Skillon with only a pirate trader there to talk to. Oh, I forgot about the Talon, but low-tech stuff from them just isn't the same. In vanilla, it seems more and more like you don't even need to set down a permanent base later on even with resource depletion on, just keep making weapons or finding loots to sell to refuel your ships. Can make quarter to a half million credits easy and fully fueling a heavy CV from traders alone would cost maybe 20% of that.
I wish ravien or vermillion would add the vanilla starting system to RE. I absolutely love the moons in the ring of the gas giant and that little oasis on ningues I could just sit there all day enjoying the atmosphere it's so pretty.
55:00 -ish... There's a quicker way: Just pick up the portable constructor (Shift + F) and all things that won't fit in your inventory will drop as a loot box. Picking up these (and offloading them) is as simple as clicking one button (though you might have to travel between the portable constructor loot and the storage container).
Was I the only one triggered by you putting the 4 buds in the portable constructor instead of making them into a beverage 😢
Loving back to vanilla thx
Always good to see a new Spanj series :)
The beginning of another great series 👏
Me and my wife are going through a co-op play through where we picked a random planet about 550 lightyears away from the starting system and our mission is to get to that system, pick a planet in that system and build out that planets.
My wife and I would love to play on a live stream with you if you ever want some crew mates.
Wow. That is a cool way to play Empyrion.
It feels like you are in Star Trek Voyager.
How do you select a planet to spawn 550 million light years away when you start a new game?
Also your objective is to make a capital ship and reach Akua?
Would love to join if it’s a co-op game! Have been playing this amazing game since 2015.
@@KamleshMallick The select starting planet 550 million light years away, best to go into God Mode (tilde key ' for the console menu, type GM). Then use the console to teleport there. The command is "TT the sector name and planet" Hope this helps.
You can also change the drop down for the player inventory to any of the available storage.
such an underrated game for sure
Good to see a Spanj beginner series, brings back memories. I have a rebuilt version of the destroyed Shelter I used to use for a starter base.
thanks for the vid nice look at the changes
I always appreciate that you take the time to give tips in your videos Spanj. I don't need them NOW, but they helped me when I was new to the game
You jumped, looked directly at the hole in the ground in the middle of the ice area in the building where i bet the lab with code 1234 was at and then moved on none the wiser :D
You should be able to craft the insulation boost or already have one in your armor when you start on Ningues. Since it only gives you a higher temperature resilient to cold and heat, I think having one is fine when you start the game, and it's not a big enough boost to be able to survive in space.
Ningues is a really hard start for sure with the cold but hopefully I have shown its possible with the right knowledge and surviving against those odds is quite satisfying imo
@@Spanj I agree that it's possible and you showcase that for sure. Just rewatched the episode and realized that I haven't played a Vanilla playthrough in a while. Damn, those boosters are really cheap to buy compared to reforged eden! 😝 I withdraw my first thought.😄
My last start on Ningues had me stick around the lakes/ponds early on as the temperatures were the highest around there as well as plenty of buds and food to pick up. I eventually set up a base close to the equator with a lot of flat ground and set up solar panels facing east and west to provide as much power across the day as possible.
only comment - usually near the spawn point ive found very close a body of water with volcanos - nice and warm place for a basic hole to start off as non-base-hv point and expand from there
This is awesome, I remember my day one and being so lost, I now have a little over 4k hours but love your content.
I wish there was a blueprint factory that requires you to input the actual parts rather than just being able to throw in copper, iron, etc. The update made it better so you require the tech at least but it still feels a little cheaty just to feed it raw materials.
always build my first few vehicles anyway - lack of shields makes nice shapes too blowy up and difficult to replace nicely --- though really want a researchable 'bay' area where i can do cut/paste build mode stuff, sort of car inspection bay type thingy
Actually, you can chuck parts into the factory, and they will give you the benefit of reducing crafting time if you opt not for instant on factory.
You can of course but you can skip the whole building a base/constructor/etc. Oh well, it's a minor nit pick anyway :)
empyrions main isp to me at least is the building, took me a few years to even use the creative games - just always using the blueprints just means it ends up yet another shooty game
Was kind of surprised you didn’t keep it so when you die you keep your tool bar.
It would be nice if Mass/volume were each separate options because I think the volume thing isn’t super realistic. Like a block being 1x1x1 but can fit something that is 1x2x1 etc.
But still looking forward to the series. Always fun watching you play this game
Learning how to play from a professional gamer, nice work Spanj. lol
I miss it. I miss my Space Harley.
Thank you so much for keeping up with this game, Spanj. I just got my wife to start playing with me, you are a great intro! We are having a lot of fun.
Important Information:
You dont need an Armor Locker to equip the Light Armor to your Body. But also not to install or switch Boosters in it!
Iif you dont like to roleplay the cold to mutch and got the money there anyways. Get yourself 2x Thermal Insulation Boosts ;)
You also can heat up yourself in all the Fluid Water you find. Like all the Lakes and Oceans who are not frozen.
(on hot Planets you can also cool down there)
Dont get in there without Suit or you will drowning. And dont loose your Hooverbike in there ;)
Would love to see one of these for RE, I only play RE now but I'm unsure of so much content I usually end up using the spawn menu then get bored and start again. I don't even know how many new resources there are, or how to find/use them :)
Great as ALLWAYS!
Around 55:00, my normal method to clear a portable constructor is to just empty my inventory into a separate container then just pick the constructor up and shift-F the drop box, then transfer all into the desired container.
Ha! Just started a game up for the first time in a year last night 👍🏻
SPANJ. your killing me man.... The last place you visited there was a door in the ground... I suspect the Red Key Card is down there somewhere. I was sure yu would go open the door and investigate. I have not played this Start... so if you dont go back and check you will force me to load this start and check... Please don't make me check!! Ha Great Video!!
Oh wow, did not notice that at all, good eye
thank you for this
i just startet with the game and played the 6h (for me) tutorial i'm still overwhelmed with the possibilities of the game.especally with building vessels i still have no idea how it works. for sure that series will be a big help for me :)
Haven't played since OCT 2017, and only for 30 hours lol might pick the game back up again after seeing this
Great episode! As in previous series and livestreams, may you continue to trigger your viewers with your food bar lmao!
Always XD
I LOVE EGS its such a fun game... Though if it has SE physics, it'd be down right flawless.
not sure if you need to worry about base attacks on the starter moons so could possibly save resources - good habit to be in though for the sentry guns. Entertaining vid thanks Spanj 🙂
My OCD was screaming, "pick up the damn ice golem loot!!!"
A fresh start can be fun, but I want to experience other parts of the game as well. So I just do a 'quickstart' these days in order to go exploring.
The environment in these are looking better and better
You might set constructor speed and factory speed to normal for single player. You will only have to sleep to skip time.
Thanks Spanj I learnt a lot there 🙂
Very cool start..... (Did you see what I did there?). It was interesting to me I never did the Ningues start in test and in testing the storyline wasn't installed so it's all new to me.
Want sunlight in single player? Sleep for 8 hours.
This will be great!
Spanj, Can you please do an updated How to on Campaigns, especially with all of the new stuff they have added in 1.10???
not sure what you mean by Campaigns, do you mean the PDA missions?
Ok, going back to the game =)
48:35 : What is that orange camera view? Is it some kind of drone? If it is, what is the default key bind to open the drone view?
Edit: Ignore me! You explained it perfectly later on, I asked before finishing the video, so that's my mistake ^-^
I used to play this game when it was in it's infancy and I only wish that they would improve the graphics.
Gerald???? Is that you??? Also for a base respawn point, you need to place a clone chamber or a heath station down as part of the base.
"I want, I want, I want"
Okie dokie...moving on.
*visibly confused
Spanj, if you have any plans to continue this guide, i have a suggestion. Personally Ive attempted empyrion a few times, i can prosper (even on the hard planet starts for the basics, hv, sv, base etc, and ive also watched your Emp and RE videos to try and learn. But i always stumble on how to pre-emptively know what POI's are do-able for my given tech level, so i usually getbwrecked and lose faith. I try to watch your longplays to try and learn that bit, but naturally your already gained knowledge on pois guides you. Some emphasis on how us mere mortals can come to understand that would be much appreciatted, atleast by me :)
Park your ship out of range of the POI, jump out of your cockpit so you are stood on your ship with view of the POI and use a sniper rifle to inspect the POIs weapons loadout, if you dont have a combat ship with good shields and the POI has 8+ guns on it, leave it alone. Also if it has 100% next to its name and you dont have a ship with lasers or something that can take shields down, leave it alone. If the POI has no guns or only 2 or 3 and no shields, you should be able to take it on reasonably easy with a basic shielded attack vessel
They Need a insane level for drone attacks 😂
i would lvoe a tutorial on how to continue when you built your first capital starter ship and warping to other systems, what is the point, where should i go for, i did one where i flew to polaris terr but it felt pretty boring.
That will be coming up soon for sure!
This looks awesome, and I can play online with Friends?! I'd love to dig into this and Reforged Eden (2?). I'm a huge No Man's Sky fan. Bought Star Citizen, but was too buggy. Beat Starfield, and it was too... disappointing. Obviously this is it's own thing, but what am I currently missing, and how well does it do fun space things lol
I literally did not last 10 min in the cold, it was so difficult trying to make the coffee while fighting and driving the bike around. Just not fast like you with the keyboard and mouse to get everything done
I'm struggling to figure out when to make a base. I know this isn't Reforged eden, but I've been running around that for a day now doing missions and still haven't made a base. How do you effectively pick a good starting base location? can it just be where ever? should it be near a forest? open plains? does water matter?
On the topic of water, DO NOT let the hover bike near water, it will instantly sink and can be impossible to recover leaving you out in the middle of nowhere. You'd think a HOVER bike would hover over shallow water... but it does not.
Good question. I would setup a temporary base straight away, near water is a good choice in case you want to use a water collector for Oxygen production.
But use the base to store materials to build a CV and then explore the stars for the perfect solar system to setup your main base
I am trying to get into this game but it looks just so overwhelming, it's so much you have to do just get a base up and running.
Is this just a one-off or are you going to continue this. Great video nonetheless
Was anyone else screaming at Spanj to stop harvesting and get to the science station?
*In Arnies voice "Get to the science station"
I was too busy trying to figure out why there was daylight
Multiple review comments said to play this with Reforged Eden from the Workshop. What are your thoughts for a new player?
You are Thriving lol
Algorithm comment to boost this for new player :)
No base attacks on starter moons in Vanilla im pretty sure
Didn't Empyrion recently make it so that you could equip light armor and boost with out needing an armor locker.
Hi nice video
Cheers
How do you increase your reputation with the Wastelanders when there are no predators to kill?
Answering my own question, although I couldn't find where I asked it, no, there are no drone base attacks on Ningues.
hello how are you. i finally figured out why i didn't have power lol the ship i crashed in the core didn't belong to me i think changed it now everything works . how far down into the ground can i put my core so it doesn't get damaged during a attack. they came from the other side of the planet just to attack me, they brought six battle cruisers and four drones. i thought easy mode was easier lol. this place didn't come with shields or ammo. next question is why cant i spawn a ship? it says invalid playing fiels.
Do you know how valuable those explorer tokens are? Seven of them will get you an epic drill and if you collect all of them the final prize a no cpu core.
I've been out of loop for a while, but empyrion has always been super overwhelming at the start. Over the years since i started out they pilled on so much more that it's a bit of a mess for a new player. Weights and volumes and cpu should not be on by default for new players. I think that's a major mistake on eleon's part tbh.
if you start with the weights/volumes /cpu - you just get used to it -- its only cause you didnt have it before, you notice it -- and empyrion (vanilla) just seems so easy now (compared to much earlier versions, and reforged/lost mia etc) that added difficulty that doesnt involve rampant disease/conditions hitting you simultaeneously (my pet hate) is nice.
Hi all !
hello again since the game wouldn't spawn a ship here i endeavored to build one after a couple oops its flyable very fast and can haul 158 to of cargo according to the stats. using 6,000 out of 15,00 CPU I've been using your videos as reference it's been a lot of help. i
This game is great but I still think it needs wheels and tracks. In my mind I just can't see how a hovering vehicle could have enough inertia to mine or perform heavy construction tasks but eh maybe that's just me!
Well it doesnt hover like todays hovercraft do, it uses some anti-grav shenanigans
@@Spanjyeh that's true! Like I said it's a great game and I really enjoy it. Thanks for the video.
I do think for simple varieties sake they could be cool though. But I gather the engine would struggle with them??
Kinda agree , tracked may be cool, but on the other hand the bugs and terrain collisions would take them forever to deal with, when they need to do so much more stuff to make the wider universe more fun. i thing the hover vehicles hide a load of problems they wud otherwise have.
You used to be able to place 2 heaters, and the combination of the 2 or 3 would warm you up. not sure if it is still allowed.
Not any more, it increases area of effect, but they don't stack.
After about 5 deaths sprinting there, over 15 hot drinks, i finally made it. the POI marker disappears though when you get close which is annoying. Also how on earth did you get so lucky to not get taken out by drones in the first couple areas, my two games were swarming with them. I got camped for like 30mins nearly tryin to just get around the map, they'd constanlty spawn camp me where-ever I went.
Are there base attacks on the starter moons now? Used to be no base attacks on the starter moons until you hit Omicron.
nope, starter moons are relatively safe
sorry its love your videos
I have over 2000 hours in this game, I don't think I need a "getting started" guide, but Spanj has uploaded, so I must watch 😂
It seems like the early vanilla game has gotten some more attention. Last time you covered this stage of the game, I criticized Eleon for changing up the established story again and not really making it better. I think that's still a valid criticism, there are other areas of the game that are in dire need of attention, but at least it seems like they put a lot of good effort into polishing this story. Hopefully they are happy with it and start to continue development past the first few hours of gameplay. This looks good though, I may have to boot up a vanilla world and try out the new starts.
I forgot how absolutely bonkers the vanilla loot is, a T2 shotgun in one of the first boxes you open 😆 It seems like they made all the early game crafting super cheap as well. Not necessarily a bad thing, it sucks scouring a planet for an hour looking for that last iron ore to build your first mobile constructor. I guess I'm just used to the Reforged start where tears and anguish are a necessary part of the experience 😑
Can't you build 2 portable heaters and use them both to raise the temp more??? I mean that would only make sense.
Hi Spanj
Have had the game for years since needing hamachi to multiplayer never got into it. Due to the starting always put me off the game as nothing was explained like in most games you build a solar panel and it works what is this extra part that you put in, I have tried the akua robinsons protocal but have found it throws so much at me that I can't keep it in and end up giving up I hope this series helps.
I love building games as I have over 2000hrs in space engineers but this game could never get the hang of
You mentioned a building video in this one is there a link as that confused me and cpu limits? where might i find it?
Thanks keep the video series going but just a reminder that not everyone knows why a Generator would keep you warm or make radiation sounds or why a solar panel needs something else to work. I mean i Don't
Thanks
Hey, this is a video I did on how to build everything in EGS ruclips.net/video/3nG8T_SNfsM/видео.html
@@Spanj thanks will look into it
hello lone your videos! Just a small question what is a very good small ship that is good at defending itself while I'm doing quests, plus i was wanting them to put on my ship for more defense, since my ship is not able to upgrade its weapons, I'm over on the CPU,
Connected toolbars are a cheat. Mass and volume should give you a feel of "reality". But you cheat around this reality with that connected toolbars.
Why not just turn off mass and volume?
There should be some gear, or tools to move heavy and big stuff. I know there is a weight boost for, your suite. But that very cheap.
Imho you could just turn off mass and volume as it sucks or Elion should bring up gear or tools that kinda make sense.
But thanks for this series for beginners. Now I can give this to first timers 😊
