I just got this in my recommendations and before i clicked on it, i thought i would just skip through it, as i didn't want to spend this much time on a tier one video. In the end, i enjoyed the whole 22 minutes, did leave a like and feel committed to comment. I like your style of narrating and professionalism so there wasn't even one second boring. Oh and the outtakes are a great idea to show how much went into this video!

That’s really satisfying to hear, no pun intended. Really appreciate the comment.

[@jamesh4569]

I would like to, perhaps reiterate if this has been mentioned already, that the conveyer walls and glass walls are unlocked through the awesome shop. For brand new players, you will need to feed the ticket god before you can do this build completely. You CAN do it without anything from the awesome shop, and those missing pieces can be added in later if you like. You will just need to replace some conveyors and conveyor lifts when you add those pieces.

[@VigilantChap]

Thank you, was looking for this comment.

[@sunkissed7377]

Not to mention, unlocking ladders or stairs from the awesome shop to be able to build this without a jet pack too. You could do it w ramps and foundations, but it would be clunky.

[@davidblomquist1901]

I was curious where you get the walls with the holes in 'em, haha. Didn't even think to look at the awesome shop.

[@louthinator]

update to this, this isn't the case anymore as of update 5. You need to research quartz through MAM in order to get to glass walls and they cost quartz.. basically these structures aren't as viable anymore.

[@els236]

@@louthinator not only quartz into silica, but they also cost awesome tickets to actually unlock in the first place.

In Germany they say "Raffiniert" witch means "thats pretty impressively made and well thought out." But the actual translation of the word just says "refined" I thought it fits pretty much. :D thanks for showing, learned much for building clean factorys. I'll definatly watch more. Love the outtakes btw. :P Stay safe and have a nice day.

[@etowngftddummy]

In English we also use the word refined to talk about something being made of superior quality and presented nicely. Someone who dresses really well in a tailored suit and great haircut could be said to look refined.

[@brickbot2.038]

I love how he accepts that we may not have reinforced iron plates, but we sure as Hell should have those glass/conveyor walls. All jokes aside, the factory is beautiful and so compact! I recently had to take out my tier-1 iron parts factories to make space for a smart plating factory... I might use some of these techniques to rebuild it, all my factories are so messy! XD

Definitely saving this for later. I've played hours and hours of Satisfactory but I always restart my worlds after getting to tier 4 because everything ends up being such a mess. Starting with managing my Iron cleanly would be a good starting point.

[@driverjamescopeland]

I like that you use containers. So many people don't, but I like having that buffer. If you run into power spike, you can put a machine on standby for a short interruption while building a powerplant, without losing production.

[@WildeFyre69]

Your videos are magnificent! Your clear narration, tone, and speed of speech mean that I actually have time to watch and understand what you are doing, whereas many people seem to just be showing off. Thank you very much for your time and effort, it is very much appreciated. Cheers!

[@Cheesebread42]

THANK YOU I've been watching bigger youtubers but after googling around I still couldn't find this video until today. This is EXACTLY what I needed for my playthrough, a quickstart building!

[@GoblinGaming42]

So.... I just started playing this game. I played a TON of 7dtd a survival building game. And as a content creator that has made a ton of guides and content for that game and a plethora of other content I have to say. KUDOS! This guide was well laid out and well edited! I'm also SO SO SO SO SO very happy you put the bloopers in the end so people can get a feeling of the pain we go through making these videos :P. I LOVE IT!

[@timainwhitewolf]

I just started a new world and I'm using your guides to build a super clean looking amazing factory. I love your guides!!

[@coreyg7364]

The bloopers at the end are great. Thank you for that lol. Not only is it funny, but it lets us new guys know that we aren't the only ones who *BEEP* up and shows us something to look out for so we don't make the same mistake. Thanks for the video. It was helpful.

[@dannyturner8010]

I genuinely love the fact that he put his bloopers in at the end from when he was recording

[@stijn9rutten]

Just started playing the game and I used this guide as a replacement for a huge chunk of spaghetti that I lost all control over. Thanks for the clear guiding and giving me some handy tricks on how to build more streamlined and vertical! Keep up the awesome job and will be looking at a lot more of your content!

[@relicvault1515]

I used a modified version of this design (omitted the storage containers). This works well when trippling the output when working with my 3 pure iron nodes. I don’t think I would have gotten far without the guide.

[@arthurhoffman8742]

I see so many flat building tips, it's really nice to see some quality vertical build approaches that can be used in early game and continue to grow through mid-game.

[@EvilEldrin]

Brand new to the world of spagett, DSP I found relatively easy (user friendly if you will), started Satisfactory last week and I'm totally hooked. What grabbed my attention was the clean, slick factory look you can build, I just don't know where to start (I'm not a designer or that creative in general) and your factory guides are exactly what I'm after to get started and to learn how customised you can make your gaming experience.

[@Scalti]

Once you wrap your head around sandwich layers it’s all downhill from there to apply the same methodology to any factory.

[@BoristheBlade]

Outtakes were gold please always do that

[@thefishingveteran2853]

The bloopers made the video. Shows you're human just like the rest of us. Keep up the good work.

[@cardician23]

Now this is a great build video, thank you. I've seen a few others but other youtubers and despite them being guides they can be very hard to follow. You do a fantastic job and I could actually follow and reproduce your setup.

[@fordrollhaus9086]

I’ve only watched two of your factory build guides, but both have been incredibly well designed, constructed, and presented. Great videos, keep it up.

You my friend are a freaking god send. I love satisfactory but my brain doesnt work they many people's does when it comes to math, and these helped me IMENSLY this playthrough. Ive got 4 of your builds in my world and will be doing mannnny more. Thanks for this series man!

[@wolfe8631]

If you use the cast screw alternate recipe (which I know most people won’t have early game) you don’t have to use that last constructor and can just feed ingots into constructors to make screws

[@majorbrighton]

Ha ha, love the ending. Really helpful and a polished solution, the walls will improve the frame rate later on, not seeing the belts. Very clever having the machines hanging off the edge. Have a great summer

[@JRiffle_HeaveHoStudio]

This video changed the way I approach this game. Thank you!

[@mooncalf8382]

Love the tower aesthetic! More work than just placing everything one after the other, but definitely cooler - and besides, verticality saves space. I've learned a few tricks today.

[@MajSpork]

It's a beautiful looking factory and very well load balanced. The only issue I have with it is how many AWESOME ticket locked items you use. With the throughput of the factory it's not going to be that useful past tier 2 or so but you use conveyer walls, glass, frame foundations, walkways and door walls. I get that all of these except the Conveyer walls are purely for aesthetics but by the time someone can actually fully build along with you on this they're almost certainly past the point where this factory would be useful. Additionally you use a mod for the free flying. I can tell you from experience that getting around and building vertically in the early game is WAY harder. All that said, I love a lot of the concepts and ideas you use. The sandwich layer in particular is something I hadn't thought of and something I will almost certainly use a LOT in my future builds.

[@psychoward]

I enjoyed the build, works well. I really liked the outtakes at the end, the laughter just topped off the build. Thanks.

[@yaronhabot9237]

One of the best videos I saw. The factory is beautiful and stylish. Scalti makes it so easy to follow the construction and the scene tour clip with the music at the end is very attractive. The bloopers at the last minute of the video shows how hard it is to create such a perfect piece.

[@Gcollie3810]

Love the content mate. The bloopers at the end made this! Everyone is always so perfect with it, it is refreshing to see that I'm not the only one that cusses it out...lol!

[@thegusion8884]

[@diablothe2nd894]

Looks amazing! For an "early game" build though, you use an awful lot of buildings requiring an already established base to unlock.

[@Scalti]

You can unlock the items as early as when you unlock the assembler. Check out my video on early game coupons and HDDs.

[@blehblehson1194]

This is beautiful. I have really struggled with making my stuff just baseline efficient and haven't bothered making it not look terrible so this really got my mind working in the right direction. Not to mention this was great use of verticality that I knew I wasn't using but I couldn't get my brain to wrap around on my own. Now that I have unlocked access to all research I feel like I can finally start seeing what other people have been making without spoiling myself and this was a great video to watch thank you!

Comment for the algorithm. These are the best build guides on YT, and now to take this and upscale it for my base. I think the spot I have for basic iron is bringing in 1440 ore/min so... just 12 of these side by side would be perfect. That wont take that long, right? lol

[@Scalti]

Appreciate it. I’d wager there is opportunity to design this in an array format with a bus storage buffer.

[@senorgato9386]

Nothing against you because this video is great. Does anyone else have a problem when playing this game where you really want help trying to figure something out but none of the videos available really help you because youre not looking for a build guide you just want to know how to structure your own build for best efficency? Like i have found the majority of the ores and resources on the map and i have a general idea of what i want to do when i rebuild my main factory but i have no idea how im going to evenly split everything in a way that makes sense, is easy to connect to the next manufacturing section where the items are needed and also fully utilizes those resources without clogs and wasted items.

[@ChrisFindley]

I would personally like to see you briefly discuss pre-video mathing sessions so we can learn the art of designing our own layouts. In this video, you had a short segment about required resources to build, and I loved that. But deciding on a 3/1/1 final top floor is where everything really starts. Anyone can take a guess on final ratios and then correct once inefficient resources are left on the belts. Is that how you do it? Or do you start with a pure node, MK1 miner output and see if you can make it 100%?

[@deejeh9494]

All you need is your recipe and raw resource numbers. It's a few divisions/multiplications of resources per part per minute = minimum resource output per minute.

[@robr3015]

Nice build, I'm just getting into Satisfactory myself, and this is super helpful and looks great too!

[@sunkissed7377]

This has been super helpful, but I will say it was incredibly difficult without a jetpack. I juggled ladders all over the place, which was not too bad, but getting the vertical conveyors positioned on the outside of the building at the end was quite a difficult feat.

[@Rae_Of_Sunshine980]

The only thing I would improve about tutorials like this is adding the resource requirements of everything used, meaning the walls, foundations, windows, the elevators and the splitters/mergers. Sure the numbers may seem daunting, especially since you're making the factory because you have to make all of said materials by hand, but your tracker lowers everything automatically as you make it.
