I Spent 300 Days in Factorio... Here's What Happened

Some of what he's using are blueprints he's found online, that startup was a blueprint, I've seen a lot of people use it. I'm not saying there is a problem with using them, nor am I saying that he's not experienced with this game I just thought I'd point that out.

[@triforcelink]

I found the best defense against biter attacks is to just wipe out any nests that your pollution is getting close to. Eventually I had two spidertrons walking the perimeter of the pollution cloud.

[@arcticjeremy105]

The problem with killing the bitter nests is that the more you destroy the faster they evolve. So its find in the mid-late game when you have spidertrons walking around but early can really mess you up

[@Neovipa]

@@arcticjeremy105 Making loads of ammo and replacing destroyed stuff also costs pollution, which has an effect on biter evolution as well. So long as you keep your military tech moving you'll stay ahead of them in all but the most brutal of settings. Even then, check out michael hendrik's deathworld challenge series and you'll see that even with biters ramped up that hard you can still manage. Once you've got flamethrowers and tanks and stuff there is never much reason to keep nests around if they're in your cloud.

[@MrLiveforlove]

Was eyeing Factorio for a while now and looking to try it out. Coming from Rimworld i was wondering should i play vanilla or modded and what mods to use? Also any beginner friendly tutorials to recommend?

[@3771m]

You should play vanilla first. The objective of the game is similar to rimworld, where you survive long enough to build a spaceship off the planet. What you should know is that you have basic resources like iron, copper, coal and oil, and you can refine these materials to build more complicated materials and structures. For example copper is used to make copper wires and copper wires is used to make green circuits. However crafting takes time, so you use belts, inserters and crafting machines to do it for you. But beware, as you expand your factory, it produces pollution which angers the planets natives and they’ll come to attack you. Imagine them as insectoids. You cant defend everywhere at once, so you use turrets to defend for you. Ultimately, factorio is a game of automation. Some beginner tips i’d give is: 1. You probably need much more space than you initially think. 2. Don’t look up guides for production efficiency, otherwise you’d spoil your fun. 3. Even if your factory isn’t neat and tidy like in the video, if it’s messy and it works, then it’s good enough. As for mods after your first playthough, I’d reccomend Krastorio and space exploration, which is somewhat like vanilla expanded for rimworld.

[@LuaanTi]

Look for ways to automate things ASAP. You _can_ do a lot of things manually (and it's a common thing in speedruns), but the game is absolutely about the automation. Even stupid, slow and inefficient automation is much better than having to think and deal with half-manual processes ("oh no, I haven't been researching anything for the past 30 minutes because I forgot to feed the assemblers!"). Which is also why pretty much the first thing you want to fully automate is belts, and the second is inserters. Then follow with almost everything else - you're not going to believe it matters, but once you have e.g. miners and assemblers automated, you'll find it's a huge boon to be able to focus on building up. Partial automation is also very useful early on. For example, making gears or copper wires will save you a _lot_ of handcrafting time, and it's really easy (e.g. have two furnaces making iron feeding a gear maker, and then put the result in a box). Biters are tricky and have been rebalanced over and over. I'd recommend playing your first game as a Railworld - it doesn't eliminate biters entirely and still does force you to deal with them (unlike Peaceful), but generally makes them easier to handle and easier to recover from your mistakes; even if you are utterly overrun, since the biters will not actually expand, you don't really get a point of no return. You can just stop polluting for a while, rebuild and plan. It's also great to bring friends. Working together is great. Mods are generally less necessary for a full game than in most other games, since the devs implemented all of those crucial things into the base game over time. So they're mostly for changing the game to account for personal taste, or outright expanding it. Starting with the base game is IMO a good idea - it works very well, and you're unlikely to think it's not complex enough on your first couple runs :) I'd avoid tutorials unless you actually get stuck. There is a built-in tutorial - remains of the old campaign (which was ultimately scrapped, unfortunately) - that will get you through the basics and give you some inspiration pretty nicely, but it really is a campaign; you can always just start a freeplay instead. Finding stuff out on your own is more fun, and there's plenty of very interesting ways to design your factories that people found by _not_ following tutorials. Play around. Modpacks are generally split into a few different styles. Vanilla+ tends to mostly follow normal progression, and just expands it in breadth or length. For example, Krastorio, Space Exploration (and even more so, the actually unrelated SpaceEx) or Bob's mods. They're fun follow ups to finishing the base game, and add more variety and play around with the concepts a bit. I'd probably recommend going with Space Exploration as a good intro to this style, possibly in combination with Krastorio. Then you have the "let's make everything big and complex" modpacks, if the base game feels _really_ simple to you. Angel+Bob's mods. DyTech. Pyanodon's. AAI. These tend to change the base game a lot, and make even early game very different from vanilla. Pyanodon probably takes the cake here, since even getting the earliest science pack will probably take you a couple hours (a recent version added another, even earlier science pack - but it mostly serves as a guide to unlock the first "real" tier of science). But definitely not a first-timer modpack; Angelbob's is probably a better introduction to this style (you can even exclude some of the mods to keep things even simpler - in particular, Angel's Petrochem adds a huge amount of complexity). Finally, there's the ones that introduce a different take on the basic formula. Seablock is built around AngelBob's and puts you on an ocean world with very little landmass and no natural resource deposits. DyWorld builds around DyTech and adds a certain story progression. Nullius is essentially a prequel that has you as a Von Neumann android meant to terraform worlds and build more androids and send them to other worlds to eventually terraform the whole galaxy. If you're interested in this style, I'd heavily recommend Nullius.

All they do is make you build one more item to blow them up when they're in the way, and provide some natural defense. Lots of people play without them, from what I understand. Also he's doing the City Blocks thing, which cliffs really get in the way of

[@Tenteono]

@@adius256 So? Playing with cliffs is part of the challenge. It also makes it so your base doesn't look exactly like every other base you've made.

Innovation, new ideas and struggle is what most factorio players will look for, not tutorial how to finish the game for the first time..
