My GREATEST Achievements in Satisfactory Early Access

[@jembawls]

Thanks for the wild ride, everyone! Be like Pillar-chan!

I'm hoping CS invited you as well as any of the developers that worked on the game back for the 1.0 launch stream.

[@Nytehawkntn]

11:17 in, and I'm just like you on this topic. And Jace, I know those demons myself, but work on telling them to take a hike. You are dearly loved and missed in the Coffee Stain world. A whole bunch of people came over to your channel for a reason. So, yeah... I understand how how it is to believe in yourself sometimes, so let us help with that heavy lift sometimes. :-)

You guys are the gold standard of how community managers should be. I don't feel like satisfactory would be what it is to people without the community management team actually being apart of the actually community. It's a game and you guys kept it positive and laughed with us and at us along the way in the best ways. I have not seen a community like this in any other game and it's only like that because of you guys. To say you were awesome doesn't even begin to express how truly amazing you guys have been especially given the way the world is today. You guys were and are the escape we all needed, you felt like the friends we could turn to just to get away from it all and just have a good time. So thank you Jace, I'm going to continue to suport you in what ever small way I can even if it's just 20 min of watch time and a thumbs up on the vid. Keep on making "shit games" and I'll happily be there to check them out with you.

[@JX02123]

You might not be at Coffee Stain any longer, but a part of you is embedded in Satisfactory. I can not play it without thinking of your vids and how awesome it was to watch the game evolve and grow and you being one of the major faces to associate with it. I really think you set the bar for how an early access game should be handled and others should take note of what you guys have accomplished. Thanks Jace!!

Thanks Jace for all you've done for Satisfactory and congratulations for admitting your value. What a leap indeed and I hope you'll keep a clip to watch whenever your demons catch up

[@eamonnfanton2165]

Jace, you are worth way more than you could ever think, seriously. What stands out for Satisfactory beyond any other game that ever existed, is the way the community managers were so open about how the game was progressing, even when thing were not quite right. How your personality got an entire player base behind you and watching that was truly amazing, and the time and effort that was obviously put into every video was and is truly appreciated by myself and I am sure all the other Satisfactory players. Often when watching one of your or Snuts vids I wondered how do they do that? Why aren't other developers doing the same? and then it came to me why other developers, especially the AAA developers, could not do it even if they used your videos as a template, it was your personality and sincere love for the game and its player base. I hope what ever you do in the future you will experience moments like this many more times. What you have achieved as a community manager and also as a developer of Satisfactory is in a single word priceless.

[@LithNeo]

Pillar-chan! UWU In all seriousness though, you helped foster probably one of the best communities for a game. You earned so much respect and I hope you can feel a sense of pride and the level of love the community has for you. My friends and I looked forward to the CM videos from you and Snutt, and loved everything you guys did and we REALLY appreciated the straightforward and honest timeline expectations for the game. We were happy to wait for 1.0 because you kept us informed about what was going on, whats being worked on and what we can expect. So thank you, as someone who loves this game, you are amazing!

[@ElementalNimbus]

As someone who struggles with my own demon that seems similar, I can say I intimately understand that struggle and how hard it can be. Especially in how it can undercut all logic and reason, which can make it even more frustrating to talk about. I say this because while all your contributions to Satisfactory and its community were great, and certainly worthy of praise and celebration, to some people like myself seeing you overcome that inner-voice - and be able and willing to talk about it, means quite a lot too. I know it isn't a war you can ever really "win", that alone makes it hard to fight it some days, however actually seeing someone else with similar problems stand back up, dust themselves off, and pitch themselves back into the fight is... powerful. That alone is worthy of respect. So when I say these words, I do hope it sinks in a little bit how much I mean them. Thanks Jace, helps a lot!

[@jembawls]

Thank you

[@NominalJoe]

"building the satisfactory community", so much cheese, but accurate. My satisfactory experience was made to be a journey with having such support from a community, the developers, but honestly most influential were the community managers. URA pillar-chan!

[@UnrealKazu]

Your videos always feel like visiting a good friend at home, coming through the front door, and immediately starting a nice and cozy chat about everything and nothing. It's good to see you were able to quell those demons. I believe in you from the bottom of my heart.

[@Pest789]

Your community management style sold a LOT of copies of this game, dude. You are a shining example of how it should be done.

[@emessar]

I'm so proud and happy for you Jace. You did an awesome job as community manager and helped make an amazing game. I think it's also very brave and admirable of you to leave the game when you did and venture out on your own. You're an amazing person and I wish you the best in life.

[@Hawkeye_PC]

Hey Jace. Thanks again for your contributions. You not only helped build a legendary game, but also built a community, and showed Satisfactory to the world. You took a path that you didn't know what the hell you were doing but despite that you persevered. and in a way became a leader. As I told you in Discord, You and Coffee stain wrote the book on Ethical game development and meshing with your player base. and I still stand by the idea that, The book you wrote is fucking great Jace, And is the gold standard for how Community managers NEED to be to help game devs reach and listen to your audience. Thank you so much for helping create a legendary Adventure. Now go out there and make another one!!!!

[@DawnstealerGaming]

You were the beating heart and the face of Satisfactory for so long, Jace, that the project likely wouldn't have had the support it has now without you. You're seriously one of the best community managers I've ever seen, and that's not a slight on Snutt (who's also very good). Looking forward to seeing your own game out there and congrats on "winning" Satisfactory!

[@sokei4670]

Honestly Jace, I have more than like 500+ hours in Satisfactory and it was picked up as I had seen some videos and it seemed like my style of game. At the time I was studying and had a lot of issues with routing and how it worked. I played satisfactory as a little brain exercise to help me stop seizing at problems that felt to big to calculate or work on. One of the main reasons I stayed playing this game was the amazing work with speaking to the community and actively making fun and engaging videos, respecting the players of the game and their input. This truly feels like a game where the developers and players built it together and its amazing to be a part of it and without your work I doubt so many people would have stuck around as we had a face to trust with the information given and taken. Be proud of what you have been a part of and Thank you for it all.

[@jerrys.9895]

Jace, I've struggled with depression and self-worth issues for as far back as I can remember. You've never needed to state outright that you are familiar with these feelings for me to know you *get it*, so thank you. I've said before but this random internet stranger is so, so proud of you.

[@SebastianD334]

I've been following Satisfactory since November 2018, and you've been a huge driving force for building the community, especially in the beginning, the community wouldn't have grown so nicely without your help. I loved watching every single video about satisfactory or coffee stain, as you always made them funny, even if it was just a skit about not getting any work done. These videos made my day! I understand your reasons for moving on, but your impact really cannot be overstated. Thanks Jace, helps a lot! ❤

[@ZwerginTDM]

Thanks Jace, always fun and always helps a lot. I'm sure dropping through memory lane was enough challenge on its own. Very happy the community was able to help you a little bit through some challenges. You're awesome, don't ever let anyone (including yourself!) say otherwise. Each time you're ready... you've got this. 👊

[@bmanthe2]

Jace - you (and Snutt and the rest of the team) changed how I viewed early access games and gave us such a phenomenal community. Thank you so much!

[@isleiff]

I still remember, back in the days when a certain monster made his first Abominations and Early Access started. There was a community manager, who made videos that were unlike any official game updates I have ever seen. I thought, that guy is crazy, but funny. And he seems to really like the game he is working on. This was many years ago, and I am proud I have been along for the ride.

[@Mystik314]

Jace, you are valued. Don't ever doubt that. Satisfactory may not have ever been finished without your contribution. Helping the community stay informed, stay engaged, and stay excited for what is coming. That, in turn motivates everyone to keep going and make satisfactory even better. Now, on the eve of 1.0, we have to take a moment, and look back, thanking every developer, every early access player, every person who shared their experiences, and especially, all the great community managers who kept everyone up to date on everything happening. You're awesome, Snutt is awesome, all the players are awesome. All the current and former employees at coffee stain are awesome, even Simon. Keep your head up, don't let the negativity win. Be the awesome person we all know you already are.

[@Warp9pnt9]

My big SF achievement was going from a 960 MW Solid Biofuel plant to a 24 GW Compacted Coal plant. A second fun thing was Global alluminum belted to a single factory and made to ingots using Sloppy Hos and An*l Electrodes... I forget the ALT names. A third almost achievement was nearly-global head-lift oil pumped to spire coast using only 2 Mk.2 pumps, a zero-set Valve, and a industrial fluid storage. A mini achieve was making enough copper powder to make the 4000 thingamabobs at the end, using a single constructor.

[@Andrew_Offline]

Thank you Jace, for your amazing content both as a creator now and a community manager. I only got into satisfactory a few months before you left i just fell in love with you snoot and the game in general. Seeing a game you worked on, you as a person improve I honestly can say this silly little building game is more than that. Thank you Jace, Coffee Stain and the community for making satisfactory what it is today

[@gamingwhileotherssleep4650]

I don't comment on the videos I watch very often and when i do, it is usually a quip or attempt to be funny. In this case though, I will make an exception. I was drawn to Satisfactory because of the gameplay, core loop and my prior experience with Coffee Stain titles. I stayed because of the absolute amazing community. It was obvious from the first video I ever saw, which you did, that your passion and enjoyment was translating directly into helping make the game and community a better place. So thank you for everything you have done.

[@micheljolicoeur6094]

Many years ago, I started and loved this game, but fell off after the spaghetti got too disruptive and my outputs were too slow. Later, I started a new world and kept it more organized, and eventually, after falling off and coming back AGAIN, I kept up to reach 300 hours in my world and finally “finish” the last tier and was very proud of my world. Hopefully my friends and I find the time and motivation to start a new world in 1.0 and finish the full game! Thank you for all of your efforts for early access!

[@snorr656]

I remember when I first saw satisfactory when one of the content creators i watched reviewed it. I was immediately hooked the moment I played it and this was one of the first versions ever. Before quartz was useful and conveyor lifts were a thing. Especially after checking out the youtube channel and seeing the awesome and extensive community support you provided. I watched every single one of your videos because of this great communication and always kept up with every update unlike any other game before because of your great work. Thanks to you and all the awesome other devs, Satisfactoy became one of my favourite games of all time. I cant wait to see where it and you go from here. Thanks Jace, helps a lot!

[@NorthstriderGaming]

I would be so cool to have you around for the launch stream at coffee stain as a special guest given that you have been the game's 'face' for so long.

[@hendrik4k627]

These words you shared in the video truly resonated with me. I just watched it again, and it's fascinating to hear your perspective-how you downplay compliments about your work and how people almost have to force them on you. It’s hard to grasp because not everyone has that humility, but it makes it all the more essential to emphasize how huge your contribution to Satisfactory has been. You’ve been an integral part of building this world, and now that it's reached version 1.0, it's like watching the factory you helped create run at full efficiency. Your role as a community manager might mean you get a lot of attention, and at times the feedback might seem too good to be true, but it’s a reflection of the profound impact you’ve had. The way you always acknowledge the rest of the team-it's endearing, and of course, we know it’s a team effort. But that doesn’t diminish how much you’ve personally touched this community. You’ve brought more than just a game to life; you’ve built a place where people feel connected, where they find purpose and joy. Your work has been the foundation that has given so many people an emotional anchor. Your videos and streams-where we get to see the person behind the scenes-have only deepened our admiration for you. Your kindness shines through in everything you do, and it’s that warmth that has made such a difference. You’ve been a beacon for this community, and we love you for it.

[@jembawls]

That is very kind Hendrik, thank you!

5 years ago, when i first saw satisfactory and played it. i knew there was something special here. You were a big indication of that, i dont know how to describe it. From early access i knew you guys cared.

[@Embr4c3]

I believe you pioneered a new way of community management. Almost all companies just make a video once in a while with a dev who hasn't seen daylight in 20 years read from a script while not even looking at the camera. You always felt a LOT closer to the average player.

[@tryoxiss]

You have done so much for this community! Your update videos about satisfactory are what got me into the game and I always loved seeing what you put out. Wishing you luck on this new chapter, and I can’t wait to see what comes of your new game!

I have mad respect for anyone who is able to setup nuclear power and/or earn the employee of the month mug legitimately. Those are not easy, and I consider them my two biggest accomplishments in the game as well! A close third would be my giant steel tower, complete with a single power control room I can use to turn on/off any floor (this was created before priority power switches were a thing), a full packaging/unpackaging system, and a few other pretty cool features. 😊 But yeah.. I actually offered all my buddies in my Discord gaming group a $100 Steam gift card (no joke) if they created a fully automated nuclear power plant or finished the game. Not one person did it.

When I found this game eons ago I did not anticipate the impact it would have on my life outside of simply playing a fun little factory building game. I own that to the community you started, how you communicated the development, but also the personal aspects you have brought throughout the years. So thank you. Also, hopefully I can one day be like Pillar-chan

[@greyfox346]

For me, it was Nuclear Power. I shyed away from it for the longest time, because dealing with radioactive waste was scary. But when early access gave us plutonium... and a way to sink uranium, I gave it a shot. I build the factory at the Waterfall Uranium location (you all know the one) and set up the manufacturers, an ungodly amount of water pumps, and far above them all, the Silos themselves. Along with blenders and a particle accelerator on the top level (to keep the radioactive section contained) I had a fleet of drones coming in from other factories to provide the necessary components for the Fuel Rods, as well as packaged fluid to process the waste into useful products. All of that, for 8 reactors running at 250% efficiency. I've seen other builds blow mine out of the water, but that was the first time I had to solve so many logistical problems at once to complete a singular goal. Nuclear power is HARD.

[@ppeez]

You actually got me into this game. Years ago the youtube algorithm kept recommending me your videos talking about update features. Everytime i thought "wow, they keep adding cool small things and a lot of quality of life" at some point i saw the Power Line zipline quality of life update and i still remember it, because it was such a smart thing to add to the game imo. I bought the game on sale a long while ago and never played, started this year on U8 and fell in love. We laid our Save to rest and will start into 1.0 heavy tomorrow. I have almost 1 month off of work, my girlfriend approves. I have a lot of weed. I will play the ever living shit out of 1.0

[@WolfA4]

I remember starting up Satisfactory for the first time in 2020, played it for 15 minutes or so and uninstalled it not because I disliked it but because I knew instantly that it would be great. I checked back on it through the years and saw it grow and even though I was purposely avoiding playing it until it was done I still wound up putting in almost 200 hours. You and the rest of coffee stain studios should be proud of what you've accomplished with Satisfactory.

[@dzee7936]

Jace, You and Snutt have set the high bar for what community management should be like for every game. You and Snutt could write a book on it and you have so much material for references I wish you well. It was nice to hear you do another video. Subscribed.

[@MightiestBeard]

You, and subsequently Snutt, set the bar for community managers. When I'm following a game in EA and they aren't as open and communicative as you guys were/are, I immediately go on alert. I KNEW Satisfactory would continue to grow and be great simply because YOU assured me it would. You worry that what you did might not have meant anything? Brother, it meant everything.

Definitely my nuclear plant was my favorite EA moment. It is perfectly load balanced for all radioactive components, makes full use of a Uranium node and fully process the waste.

I did a minimum factory build, which builds every item in the game with one 100% producing building. Everything else is 250% overclocked and optimized to the max. Massive factories are not my thing. Also i did my own spreadsheet, which can calculate everything you can produce in the game from 1% to 250% overclock.

[@orange-micro-fiber9740]

Love satisfactory! It needs lights though!!!! Propper lighting. Fluor lights, incandescent lights, neon, bunker lights. Like smaller lights.

[@Wbfuhn]

I like that the game was ported to UE5, which because of the lighting system is nice because now there's true darkness. The world can be cast into darkness now but I'd rather have the sky light turned off because it would take hours to block the sky. My intention is placing a horror environment within the game. I would have to just utilize the caves and build paths to them.

super proud of you jace!! i know the feelings you expressed all too well 😭 also couldn't be more excited for the 1.0 release tomorrow, i really can't remember the last time i've been this hyped for a game release/update in my life

[@Vectorspace000]

Hey Jace, KZbin just suggested to me a video of you doing a tutorial for Satisfactory pre-alpha build from 2017! Amazing how far the game has come

You were the pillar-chan for the community.

AS I know how it is with those demons, let me tell you the one thing you might take to heart: you are not the expert on your own worth, so tell those demons that - unfortunately - they have no authority in that matter. They MIGHT think they are correct, but they are not. Your contributions are meaningful, have been and will be. You inspired me personally on the matter of community management and I am just but one of the people you touched. As you stated: remember Pillar-Chan. you can carry those demons... even with wet feet (poor Pillar-Chan)

Knowing 1.0 was coming I pushed to finish the game a couple of months ago, and was surprised that Nuclear was less of a hassle than I had first thought. All ready for a new start tomorrow though.

I started playing March 2019... back in the days before conveyor lifts!!! Thanks for all the work Jace, :-)

[@MrKalidascopeEyes]

Headlift is important during intimacy. Gotta to check if their still breathing wouldn't want those flow rates to gag.

Thanks Jace, you helped alot the industrie. I think you don´t know what you and snut and coffee stain created when it comes to get in touch with the players - now the most bestes community in the universe. That set a standard, which no other studio will reach in years, or even decades.

Hey man, You rock, I'm glad you got to go back for the 1.0 stream, I'm glad you're still doing well!

[@tentenbits]

Glad to have stumbled upon your videos as community manager. Excited to see where you go from here.

[@JCJC650]

Do we know what time / timezone it releases? It will be 00:12am on the 10th in 6hrs in Sweden where the dev's are :)

[@lennoyl]

Thanks for all those years of CM (and dev, I didn't know) on that game. Snutt still does a great job but I prefer when you were together. And you're my favorite planeswalker ^^
