Orebound - Finding Emerald and Making Gem Ingots [E9]

[@juerganboehm5161]

Glad to see that your still posting this play through. Too many others getting to gems just go meh and off to other games they go. Looking with keen interest on how you deal with the excruciating slog to get 10mil then somehow find the fortresses. I just can't ever get pass 5mill without losing interest. Forget about miles of underground searching for the fortresses.

[@surtrplays]

It is a tough grind. Wait, fortresses?

[@tonylanders1196]

Yea like KAGE 848 lol. He made some polished gems for one ore and then never made any more vids for the game. Never even found a single temple either

[@tonylanders1196]

The beacon used with the compass will guide u to the temples

[@tonylanders1196]

​@@surtrplayshe meant the temples/tombs of the 3 brothers

[@tonylanders1196]

Theres only like 3 content creators that post videos that have even progressed to the gems cutting/polishing point in the game and haven't found anyone that has found all 3 temples and opened them up. Love this game and sad that more dont play it and play it thru to the end.

[@random2829]

Good progress today! I do wish you could "scroll out" a bit more so you could see what you are placing. Maybe not an "overhead view" - but Dwarves were never known for their towering height. 😀

[@surtrplays]

It would be great. Also a bit of snapping so you an actually line things up.

[@seajaytea9340]

As others have said, I, too, am glad that you haven't abandoned this game. It is a nice looking game design and I am curious to see where it goes.

[@surtrplays]

Thanks! It's got a lot going for it.

[@tonylanders1196]

​@surtrplays i hope i see you play thru to the end. Finding all 3 temples, infusing the 3 keys and finishing the game.

[@darthyetgon]

Time for you to actually make a vault like an actual vault and possibly having two of the bank station guys on each side of the entrance as like guard stations😊 also moving it from out in the open would also make it to where when the door opens people are like in awe and wonder of what's in side

[@surtrplays]

Right now, I just want to finish the game.

[@joshuacr]

Grats on hitting the precious stones ingot phase! I thought the gems also sold more than ingots and by all means sell the gems first if you need to. (Think ingots are used in some end game thing which I have not gotten to yet.) I can say the keys are well, key to the game's quest.

[@surtrplays]

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

[@sunjewel63]

yes, a building mode, or view . . . would be nice 🤔

[@surtrplays]

Yes!

[@dragorin1108]

When you spawn into your save game world for the first time there is a shrine that tells you what the goal is, weather that's all in the game yet or not I have no clue. I do know there are hidden vaults or tombs that need found and unlocked.

[@joshuacr]

The gola is to find the items of the three kings and the how is discovered when you find said tombs long lost to dwarven history.

[@surtrplays]

Thanks. I will have to do some exploring.

[@tonylanders1196]

​@surtrplays Ive been told that using the beacon along with the compass it will lead you to them. Dont know for sure because I haven't progressed that far yet

[@tonylanders1196]

Why didnt you continue with the cutting and polishing of the gems and make even more money?

[@surtrplays]

I think I did that in the previous episode but I didn't start selling them. Will have to fix that.

[@dragorin1108]

I can't play my save anymore as this game has a size limit issue. Not sure what counts as an object but my game crashes within 10 minutes saying I have over 2 million objects. I have a large factory but not anywhere near the size or number of objects I had in my Satisfactory playthrough. I'm not even processing gems but I have there lines pulled up to the factory.

[@joshuacr]

Not the first with this and not the last. The devs did make a fix but not sure if old games can always benefit. See if a new game helps and try spacing out some of the machinery when you can.

[@surtrplays]

Ouch, that sucks.

[@dragorin1108]

@@joshuacr I've been watching updates. There have been none since the 12th. My save was started after that updade and I've not seen any mention of a fix for this issue. My machines have plenty of space between. More space would mean additonal objects in the form of foundations.
