New to this game and now hours later my 1st colony is going downhill... Hoping to pick up new tricks here before restarting new colony to survive better... 😅
I think part of the fun is the losing and starting over with more understanding, I've lost 3 colonies and I have one that I've had running for months that i fight tooth and nail to keep going. I think you get attached to some colonies and colonists more than others
Thank you for this! I've taken a long break from Rimworld but am coming back for Anomaly and have completely forgotten how to play. This was a great refresher and showed me some stuff I completely forgot about.
You can actually queue orders by holding shift while clicking. You can queue a ton at once, they will do them once they're done whatever they're doing now, like sleeping. Additionally, if there's multiple of the same kind of task to do nearby, shift-clicking will have them do it all at once so you don't have to click them all individually. For example, if tell them to clean a stain on the ground, they'll also clean any other stuff near it, or if you shift-click a field of crops that's ready to harvest, they'll harvest all the crops within a few squares. (Unfortunately it doesn't work for sowing them. I still sow each plant individually... but at least I can queue a bunch at once.)
Yes, but I prefer not queuing tasks in order to keep track of what you have people doing. That’s particularly helpful in the early game and especially true for beginners.
Another extra tip have someone who is pretty good with medical, helps you out a lot, intro to progress for defense is to reach the point that everybody has a gun, they’re not gonna be good at shooting at first or not gonna be good at it as they use it the more they use it the better they get, helps out a lot. and don’t forget the defenses you will need it, and if you need workers, don’t be scared to use slaves, that’s what I learn while playing a lot
Loved this Tutorial, Thanks :> (For New Players trying out Rimworld) if you see those Mods out there, you'll likely say oh that's easy simple, BUT. you need the 4 DLC mods in order for them to work, i learned the hard way after that i just couldnt load anything of the Good mods in it, you Need those DLC in order for them to work. Example, Hugslib and Harmony are good mods to work with those Mods to function Properly.
35:00 "Ah, yes. Because we can't queue up orders, they can only do one thing at a time." That is wrong. You can queue up orders by holding down the "SHIFT" key, while giving the order. You can queue up to 10 orders per colonist. That is base game, no DLC or mod required.
True, in my free time I typically play on the Steam Deck, so I tend to forget some of the PC controls. That said, I still don't like queuing up orders and prefer to take things one order at a time when I'm manually forcing them to prioritize a given task. I REALLY prefer to let them choose tasks on their owns as much as possible.
First playthrough, I was lucky enough to get a horse as my random starter pet. But had no idea yet of pens, caravans, and its usefulness. Such a nice roll but was clueless. Just ignored and it wandered off (or maybe got killed by a predator, don't remember). Still irks me a little now, how I wasted that horse. Have had nothing but cats and little yappy dogs ever since, lol.
Newbie hint. Cassandra is actually one of the harder storytellers. Randy might be random, but he is biased towards smaller events. Cassandra will throw major events much more often.
I haven't experienced that. Cassandra has worked just fine for me and I'd rather not recommend that beginners go with someone who could theoretically send a major event to them immediately. That could potentially turn a beginner off from the game.
@@Czardus Well fact is that Cassandra is the hardest storyteller in the game (outside of mods). With Cassandra you will have a major event every 8,5 days on average. Both Phoebe Chillax and Randy Random are much easier than this to handle. Also. I do not really care about theoretical situations. This is a hint that informs people that Cassandra Classic IS the hardest storyteller. Randy is not harder than Cassandra due to his randomness. I never endorsed or want people to play with Randy Random. It is just information for a beginner to understand since it is not obvious that the random guy is less of a threat than the one that send constant threats at you.
Nice start with that nice stone room almost ready for you! You left some free meat lying in the field where you talked to your visitors, plus the mad hare corpse. I find it useful to store (non-human) corpses in your fridge/freezer until someone has time to butcher them, particularly the larger ones that take up less space as corpses than when butchered. And I AWAYS buy as many component parts as I can from traders. I never seem to have enough.
"Commitment mode" was originally called "Ironman mode". They changed it for the official release, so they don't get chewed out for something to do with genders inequality, or whatever that has to do with the name of a game mode. 😅🤣
dude thank you so much, I tried the game before and I was so confused to understand anything but now after watching the whole video I think I can finally play the game but there's one thing I didn't get it, in 32:40 you didn't link the power all the way to the cooler, so how did the cooler get the power?
power conduits will power anything within a certain range, even if they arent connected. Additionally, Generators, such as windmills or fuel powered generators, are entirely full of conduits from the moment they are placed down, which meas you can just build a generator near your devices and not even waste time building conduits, if you wanted.
That's exactly right. Think of it as the power conduits are the larger cables and then individual items have their own cords to plug into the conduit. Like in real life you have outlets/receptacles to plug things into.
What's better in a survival situation? Arguing over gender, or that one mfer that will split anything that threatens them. Psychopathy is an excellent and valued trait in warfare and survival. How does misogyny help😂
My problem is after few days idk what to do, after i have tons of food now what do i do? I already make huge bedrooms, some production area, some growing area for foods and woods, now what?
Needed this i start on the hardest difficulty as a first timer not knowing anything i want the true rimworld experience randy random no reloading naked bruitality and pain
My problem is that I always put my pawns to do too many jobs in queue and miss the point of setting proper sleeping quarters first. :D Maybe after this video I might do better.
I actually don't use queues at all in this game. I prefer to set the priorities and then just override what they are doing every so often when something is more pressing than their priority levels.
@@Czardus After this video I started a new game. In that game I focused to get one thing or set of objects (like a building) done at a time. And it (shocked Pikachu face) worked! :D I still set orders (queue) but now with a very localized manner. I also prioritize important jobs on top of this. Now in my game things actually are getting done.
Yes you can, all dlcs are separated and add specific content, although if you are not very familiar with the game id recommend to sink a few hours on vanilla game before moving with dlcs, the game already has a big learning curve and the dlc will increase it.
Yeah I thought the same but it's actually pretty easy, got the game yesterday and I'm enjoying it so far. Of course the meds can probably make this game have a lot of sci Fi add-ons
There is so much to do and think about and plan for i love the micromanaging if i really want too it's way better then prison architect in so many ways
As far as I know the price discount depends on your location. It's also possible that steam can sometimes be having it's own sale that brings the prices closer. It's always a great idea to shop around, and the instant gaming link is another resource for you (and one which would help support the channel!).
@@ddd-op5wy maybe if you wanna test a game out if there isnt a demo... but pirating doesnt help the games industry grow does it? or any industry for that matter.
I'm loving having a recent tutorial. Most others are like 5+ years old
The game haven’t changed whole lot, especially when you remove DLCs out of the picture
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you appreciate the effort put into keeping the tutorials current.
I've been putting off buying the game for years, saw this video today, now I am finally going to get it. Thanks!

I got it a few weeks ago after it being on my wish-list for years too. No regrets!

Honestly I don't care about the pet all that much. I'm much more interested in domesticating some animals for wool & meat production.
literally the exact same for me. I even remember thinking it was kinda lame that i got a horse and not a dog or something. if only i knew lol
I have genuinely tried to start like 5 colonies and have failed everytime lmao. Even on the easiest difficulty
Hope you're getting better now!
Shortest tutorial.
Idk how people make like 15 videos each one like 40+ mins so absurd to invest that much of time on tutorial like math courses
I've done long tutorials as well. It all depends on how much I want to cover and how quickly I can get to it in a single video.

def sucks to need a whole diploma just to play
No one is forcing you to watch this.
You can easily learn how to play from the video. You don't need a diploma.
This'll be useful since I only have 600 hours, I've barely started.

Seems like a great reason to change it to me. No need to genderize something that doesn't need it.
@@Czardus It was always, and in every game called "Ironman", and it sounds better, and easier to say. That's why it was a bit surprising. 😂

Hi, I also enjoy and play RimWorld.
I have a similar channel and I followed you. Thanks.
Great!
Which is better this or Dwarf Fortress and why? Obviously it’s subjective just looking for opinions of people that have played both. Thanks.

Thank you for that instant gaming link brother!
Any time!
you can absolutely que up orders....hold shift while clicking on an order...it will add it to the que
Yep
Tip 1: put windmills near your growing spot it will make more electricity.
The key to windmills is just to make sure the area around them is clear. I don't think it makes a difference if that's a growing spot or not.

Who would be the easier storyteller? I've heard Cassandra but I've also heard Randy
Randy could potentially send a huge raid your way early on. I don’t recommend Randy for beginners.
Phoebe gives more time between events, so she's the easiest
