[@tomlittle2301]

Please test! I'm coining this the "Tie Fighter". Asteroids are all front on. So, like the Romans directing cav charges down corridors, you could increase coverage and dps the same way. Obviously the forward pillars would have to be highly protected and could be fatal if hit.. but the slim profile would also naturally reduce oncoming traffic/chance of hit. Could work for shattered planet.

[@brianpleshek5593]

I wonder about your destroyed ship. Do you think you need more guns? More research so they do more damage? Or would just slowing the ship by half be sufficient? I'm not sure if you can set a ship speed like you could in the SE mod. Maybe toggling the engines on and off every 20-30 seconds to catch up. Hmmm, I wonder if we could build a clock out of circuits to turn the flow of fuel into the engines on and off, thus slowing down the ship. Hopefully, just throwing another row of rail guns would do the trick. I can imagine how power hungry it is already. Also, can the ship receive rockets of biter eggs whilst it is moving or only when it is in orbit ?

[@Xterminator]

I believe what happened is the turrets just ran out of ammo in this particular instance. Although it was making the trip fine before so I'm not sure why it ran out of ammo this time. Going slower definitely could help though. I think you could like 'pepper' the engines with cutting flow of fluid. Although you could also just have less engines to begin with and it'd be slower. Platforms can only receive shipments of stuff while they are stationary in orbit.

[@ogv2k]

Also quality of turrets / ammunition could help here I'd think. Makes it even more expensive but hey, it's end game for those who dare. Maybe its possible to have circuit network that detects when dmg is taken to shut off the engines to prevent a full loss of the plattform which of course would be pretty horrible :D Love the challenge this gives us.

Your missing the 300% prod cap

[@shadowlords90]

how do you get the science packs back? do you stop the ship and turn it around when ever you want? does it have to reach a certain point before you can come back? do you have to do all the research on the platform and bring all the science with you?

[@Xterminator]

@@shadowlords90 You can turn around whenever you want and head back. Basically you just need to stay out there long enough to collect enough Promethium chunks to make the desired amount of packs to last you for however long you need

[@pt8306]

Is there some equivalent of a "You win" screen, like launching the rocket in vanilla Factorio? As much as I appreciate the endless content, I also like to know when I have officially won, because I tend to mostly focus on doing completion runs, rather than playing past the end point too much. I would also like something approaching a story conclusion, rather than just "we're stuck here and have a factory forever". I know Factorio never really had a story that mattered, but even something like "Now that you have reached the edge, you can power on back home!" or something to end the story and resolve the crash landing. Sorry if you cover that in the video, I wanted to find out what the win condition was without being spoiled too much, so I sort of jumped around through the video trying not to see too much.

[@Mournfall_]

There is a win screen, yes.

[@ricar2]

But how about the shattered planet? Can you land on it or its just keep the plat alive to collect the last sp?

[@orlikforcebalancer7495]

with all content revealed, can you conclude on what resources are finite and what are infinite? As I heard you get infinite resources from constantly spawning asteroids, lava and etc. Like what resources are finite like it was in the base game where a patch would deplete and you have to explore further for more?

[@AramisUA]

I'm kinda worried, that asteroids will cause substantial lag. Is dlc well optimised from your perspective, or we finally need some real gpu power for this?

[@Xterminator]

It seems quite well optimized! I'm sure of you're going through a huge asteroid field and have a pretty low tier GPU you will experience some lag but nothing major. So far I haven't experienced any lag issues at all

[@Carlos-ux7gv]

Could you reach the Shattered Planet by taking your time. Like doing it in short bursts and leaving time for repairs, instead of going full-thrust "The Expanse" style?

[@Xterminator]

Possibly. The difficulty is that asteroids spawn significantly less when you're not moving, and you need the harvested chunks from them to actually run the platform fully. So you could possibly end up in a situation where you're stranded (this actually happened during the LAN beta test last month) lol

[@Carlos-ux7gv]

so if biter eggs can survive the trip through space, does that mean we can ship them to vulcanus and gleba to troll the worms and pentapods? or do they all just ignore each other because they'd rather eat the engineer?

[@Xterminator]

Well, with quality the inserters get insanely fast so they end up being able to sleep more and you need less of them in some cases. I think they did actually slightly optimize them as well

@@sparky8251 it isn't about the speed, the very fact that inserters operate creates a huge lag on megabases, because of that it is required to plan the entire base around using as few inserters as possible. Nothing else comes even close to the UPS intensity of the inserters

Without playing the expansion is not fair to say this but I feel like the expansion is not complete. I always felt like base Factorio was too short so I expected the expansion to be the "True Factorio" experience. And so far is awesome, every single planet is different and give us interesting challenges and I love Aquilo concept. But after seeing this video I'm bit disappointed. 1. No enemies in Fulgora and Aquilo. Even tho I'm not the biggest fan of Bitters not having enemies in those planets feels like they are incomplete. Maybe if it was just Aquilo is justifiable but still I would liked both of them having something. 2. The Victory condition is underwhelming. Escaping the solar system seems like a logical next step but I don't think this is a satisfying way of doing. I expected we needed to build an especial product to do it but building a better Space Platform doesn't feel like a good conclusion. In base game game you build something unique and big but here is just the same you built multiple times before just Bigger. I'm fine with the last science pack being a harder Space pack and the challenge of trying to get as close as possible to the Shattered planet seems cool. But the win condition of the outer system is just the same way you do all your interplanetary logistic. That is not a conclusion. So yeah that 2 things makes me feel like this is an Incomplete product. I will buy it anyway and I will play a ton and have a lot of fun. I have to say it again this only my view without playing it maybe I change my opinion after a playthrough. But this doesn't seems like the "True Factorio" experience I was looking for, it lacks something.

[@SikGamer70]

It lacks something because you spoiled yourself against your own wishes. You haven't done the 100 hour playthrough to get to the end, or solved the environmental and recycling challenge of Fulgora or the heating system in Aquilo. You saw the "you win" screen in this video and came to the conclusion that's all the expansion has to offer. So yes, it is not fair to say that.

@@SikGamer70 I spoiled my self willingly. I'm an overhaul type of player I don't care about knowing the content, the fun is doing myself all of it.

Factorio is and always has been about the journey not the destination, it's a sandbox game. The base game win condition is even more anticlimactic, you just launch a rocket and watch it move up - you don't even get to ride it or see what the satellite views from space.

@@SikGamer70 you do get to ride it! place a ridable thing in it, like a car or tank....

i'm still on the fence about the new DLC. i love space exploration it is more realistic than space age what i can tell. i really do like that no recipe have change in space age and i can use my BP.

[@RocketMan1081]

anything with rails and "old" stack inserters will not be usable

[@hayzersolar]

@@RocketMan1081 ok nice to know. Do I really like the game enough to go back and change everything. Mods will not work only if the developers update them. Yea I think after 2000 hours it's time to call this game done.i started back at 0.13 .thanks for the info

So unfair people can play it before us makes me feel mad

[@walterroche8192]

Game devs fell in love with 'free' Entertainers Good/Bad PR. Asshole moves, but the market can not do much to change it.

[@Alphenis]

What ? Giving previews in advance is very common in video games.

[@luckyizzac]

You know some people need guides for this games and for that some content creators need extra time to create the guides so that they can release it by the time the game releases

[@unknownhours]

There are also free testers. I'd rather have the game release in a stable state.
