    UPDATE: The Gleba Soil Guide shown in the video is out of date as it would seem the devs saw it, realised it was actually a bug, and patched it the next day 😆

    Don't get me wrong, I love the design and the actual gameplay, but mods are going to be INSANE. Imagine the possibilities of new planets, resources, processes.... It's going to be like a space exploration incoporation, with some caveats, of course, in every overhaul mod. I can't wait to finish the dlc, test the limit of my computer with insane spm megabases, and then on top, have insanely long overhauls to chew through. The only negative is that the day will still have 24 hours.

      the modding API changes are going to be HUGE too. They're changing so much with it, expanding what you can do, simplifying some bits, and yeah, what's super duper exciting is all the new mechanics in 2.0 that can also be used in mods like belt item stacking, spoilage, space platforms, quality, the remote view changes, force build on blueprints, parameterised blueprints, new circuit network changes and interactions, multiple pollution types and more. Modding should also be easier thanks to the simplification of definitions, for example, the normal/expensive recipe disctinction is removed, since nobody ever supported expensive mode and it made cross-mod support a nightmare where you have to check for both or either definition. Instead, expensive mode is a small mod packaged with the base game, like quality is for space age.
      I, for one, can't wait to see a "super duper ultra mega uber legendary" quality mod that takes 1 bajillion hours to get the highest tier

    • @jm_cbr_km
      @jm_cbr_km 3 месяца назад +3

      @V0lcan000 I agree with almost everything you said. It's obvious that once they made the foundations, the modding community can build on them. I can already see a super legendary bulk inserter capable of 8 or 12 items stacking, for example. The additions and changes are too many to name here, and figuring out the various use cases is going to be a long journey.
      Personally, I am a huge fan of overhaul mods, space ex, krastorio, see block, even pynadons offer a new experience for factorio that matches or even surpasses the main games one. I would happily pay for them alone! The additions of the update will have a compound effect on these mods, making them objectively better in every aspect.
      The megabasing aspect is also going to be insane. From my experience, trains were almost always the bottleneck of my base. Too many, too small, or too big, resulted in failure after a certain spm limit. Seeing how fast those new buildings are crafting is going to be a train chaos, making the 8-64-8 I used obsolete lol.
      The potential is almost limitless. Modders have new powerful tools to play with, and I am all into that.
      And yes, an extremeoverclockedlegendary mod would be fun in challenging situations, but it's also a trap because an op single machine can be so efficient that it makes the presence of multiple machines unnecessary. Personally, I love the aspect of factory growth, but in a balanced way. Horizontal and vertical growth must be on par. If an op emp plant can make like 25% of total circuit production, then the factory is not really a factory then. That's the one caveat I have with legendary quality. Maybe the jump from epic is too big, and phenomenons like this could happen on a reduced scale. Anyways, before I judge something, I must have a first-hand experience, so until then, this is theoretical.

    Never understood people who hated quality. Optional, most OP(while fairly balanced), and not really complicated thing to tackle at the end. It solves performance issue, tedious mega base scaling issue, fun to play with and rewarding. Never felt so hyped to play factorio in ages.

    • @mx2000
      @mx2000 3 месяца назад +18

      I think it got off to a bad start with the naming. Having an “epic” turret or a “legendary” productivity module just sounds silly and brings in associations with MMOs and gatcha games. Never understood why Kovarex was so adamant about keeping the names.

    • @TimDrogin
      @TimDrogin 3 месяца назад +11

      @@mx2000 They could do with "tiers", for example "Tier 5 productivity module" instead of "Legendary productivity module", but in all fairness, for the most people factorio is not the first game, and having names like legendary or rare should be familiar to everybody, and you like it or not, but if you see something like "rare" you immediately get an idea that it better version of a thing in some way. Other naming suggestions including "precise", "calibrated", or something among this lines would confuse people much more in my opinion

    • @TheFrantic5
      @TheFrantic5 3 месяца назад +5

      In addition to the quality names being a bit kitsch, it felt weird bringing in a nondeterministic mechanic for so many recipes.
      That being said, I was mostly on the fence and was going to just wait and see how it played. The thread reaction for that FFF was downright alarming. That likely contributed to the mechanic being put inside a mod module.

    • @TimDrogin
      @TimDrogin 3 месяца назад +3

      @TheFrantic5 I mean, on a factory scale, any "probabilitys" convert just to ratios, thanks to the law of large numbers. In case like personal armor - yes, it's a bit of gamble because you need just one thing. In case of anything than that it's just a convoluted way to make better items, that takes 2, 5, 10 or 20 times more resources.

    It's a wonderful video. Like everyone else, I'm excited for the dlc. But all this building not only wide but also tall, made me think
    1) We can build as much production on (let's say) Vulcanus as we want
    2) We can build as many rockets as we need to get it into orbit
    3) We can build as many space platforms as we need to get it into Nauvis orbit
    4) We can build as many cargo bays on the ground as we need to accept everything that was produced on Vulcanus
    But then we need to transfer all these resources from the cargo landing pad to the rest of the factory. (And maybe because I've never built a high throughput system using robots) I intuitively feel like there should be a bottle neck with one cargo landing pad (where you can only go tall but not wide). But I think I'm making a mistake in my logic.

    Skipped through the bits that I didn't know about, to keep some surprises. Funny how so much of the new stuff seems to focus around making hyper-productive new buildings for mega-bases, but in turn it's a bit bittersweet that it works so well that you can just have relatively tiny bases for regular gameplay as a a result. Doesn't seem like you're pushed to make flat out gigantic factories on any of the planets.
    Small question (that you might have answered in the bits I've skipped), are all the planets now still *infinite*, or did it copy the Space Exploration thing where each planet is now a decently large finite disk?

  • @HaibaneKuu
    @HaibaneKuu 3 месяца назад +4

    Thank you for the massive overview, really informative. Seems like an interesting expansion overall, but there's few... "buts" that have been bothering me since reading some of the FFFs and it seems like at least your factory does demonstrate that.
    I have to say that your planetary factories seem remarkably tiny, not at all what I would expect for a save this long. I'm not a fan how this seems to completely discourage horizontal growth and is all about building super machines with super huge numbers instead. Massive factories are a part of the fun IMO, and replacing massive smelting and assembling arrays with 3 machines and few beacons feels underwhelming to me personally. Even your nauvis base is massive bus, but pretty small production arrays. And it looks like every planet barring Gleba is limiting your available space, so you are kinda forced to do that instead of having options for horizontal or vertical scaling. Same goes for space platforms. So instead of quality being "optional" as they say, it seems more like "you will use quality or else".
    The "flowthrough" idea you are describing seems like the only logical solution TBH. Other option is trying to do on-demand production with circuits and requests, but I feel like it's way too complex and has way too many downsides, like killing throughput drastically. So seems like the easiest and most efficient solution is yea, just to destroy everything that isn't used. Especially since you aren't using everything you are producing all the time. This seems like the planet that absolutely destroys belt optimizations though, because IIRC those are all designed around compressed belts with the same resource, which is clearly not the case with this planet's mechanics.
    Fusion cells are holmium + lithium + ammonia? What kind of fusion reaction are we doing? I mean factorio is not realistic of course, but at least with fission power we kinda sorta used elements that make reasonable sense :D
    Quality grinders... yea, that's another reason why I don't like the idea of that mechanic all that much. Maybe there's a better way to do that, but seems like if you do that it will get way too complicated way too quick, and instead you just find one design and copy paste it for every product.

    • @Huntracony
      @Huntracony 3 месяца назад +4

      I feel like people are going hard on quality and vertical scaling right now because it's new, not because it's the only or even best way to play. Cliff explosions, foundations and landfill allow you to get around the space constraints (or go full on trains and make a very wide distributed base, sounds fun), and quality is expensive, so horizontal expansion seems very viable to me.
      Seemingly less so with space platforms. You could design a slow and cheap one and spam many of them to compensate, but quality does seem very valuable for space platforms, especially for transporting Gleba science which needs to be fast. That said, I'm fine with that.

    • @HaibaneKuu
      @HaibaneKuu 3 месяца назад +4

      I don't think it being "expensive" really matters when the game has raised productivity values into stratosphere and also added stuff like super drills that consume only half as much resources for the same output, which apparently could be improved even further.
      And if anything, the quality module "cost" - and you absolutely need quality prod modules, as they push your productivity even higher - it pushes you even further into the rabbit hole of just boosting a single machine, as you need fewer machines and thus fewer modules

    Great showcase, tyvm! How much SPM are you running atm? My only concern about scaling up is the bottleneck of the single landing pad per planet. Can you shoot unlimited amout of stuff from space as long as you have enough cargo storages to catch them?
    And is the space platform able to catch everything if we launch like hunderds of rockets per minute?

    • @MangledPork
      @MangledPork  3 месяца назад

      the input of the landing pad scales with the number of extensions, if it's unable to receive and more, platforms will wait to drop items for space, and it can be unloaded with legendary stack inserters for some already very high throughput, plus it's a provider chest

Planting seeds manually, as you've described, doesn't sound very enjoyable and goes against the core principle of automating everything.
