Songs of Syx Speedrun to 1200 Population v66
Вставка

- Since i couldn't find any other Songs of Syx speedruns i hereby claim the world record in the category "1200 Pop".
As the ultimate authority in Songs of Syx speedruns i can tell you, that this run can probably be done in 10 minutes.
Why did it take me 1 hour? Cause I'm terrible at playing fast.

Thank you, keep going. Would you consider sharing blueprints?
If you launch a city builder video and you hear a German accent, you know you're in the right place.
Ur completely right, we do have some kind of cultural obsession with city building games and work simulators. (I'm including austrians here, even though that would offend quite a few of us)

@@vetinarius Haha I was a big Anno player and that's how I learned about you people's tastes for it. Anyways that was a good video and I hope you'll try another run.
@@Acksn we have made the Anno and Settlers series after all... We want be smart...
This was fun. Would watch another where you show the changes you make from what you learned from this run
Greaet idea!
Yeah, I play the completely opposite way, so it was interesting to see how this all turned out. The key question: What was the final Year and Day in-game?
MY way of playing is micro-buildings to boot-strap stuff. It all goes in the planning mode as they are clearing/building the first minimal warehouse, and then each building job is activated in order. So there isn't this huge downtime to clear and build that huge warehouse you start with, BUT, that then means I have to make more, larger things later.
I haven't played v66 yet, but I think he said the wood cutters should be making much more wood, and that's always something I put in right away so I never have to cut trees for anything. Thus I tend to NOT place buildings ON trees to save all that chopping, though it does gain YOU a lot of your wood, so hmmm...
I THINK I could get to 1200 pop faster in-game, BUT at a huge cost of real-time, like say, 100 hours. lol (But I enjoy all that calculating to know when I will have population X to do Y and such, and making it look nice and run smoothly. ;-p)
~~~
I can see there being a bunch of rules needed for the max speed challenge like mostly you have to have the population above that mark for X days, JUST to make sure you don't go immediately into revolt or something.
Then again, keeping it simple and just getting to pop X and done IS a challenge, so I guess the people who end up doing it, will refine it!
(Like probably your girlfriend, which is why you didn't want her know what you were doing, since she taught you everything you know! ;-)
Sadly I didn't check the ingame time and I also don't have a savegame anymore.
I did a trial run and reached 1200 in about 8 ingame years. This run was a bit faster, so i guess around 7 ingame years.
Micro buildings to have their use case, but i think for a speedrun i prefer bigger rooms, just so i don't have to build multiple.
And yeah if this becomes a real speedrun category it will need rules, i think i'm literally the first to do this so i just made my own rules :D
It took me around 50 hours on my first ever playthrough (in v65) to get over 1k city - while learning mechanics, meticulously planning roads, layout and making small mistakes typical for greenhorn. But now I'd probably cut it down to 10-15 hours with casual play.
The commentary after your shame event was hilarious. Hope to see another run!
Yeah man, I could explain an affair or stuff, but a Songs of Syx speedrun?
One day I'll talk her into commenting a run with me so at least the whole internet can witness the enormous confusion that would ensue.
Cool idea for a speedrun! I'm beginner in this game, but this is really cool content!
Don’t beat yourself up about the lost time at the end :) very interesting concept! Thanks for that
I think you are way better than the average SOS gamer
When trading, why don't you use the Barter button? The few times I've used it this update, it just auto-calculates the amount of money needed for a transaction. Does it add random stuff to the trade sometimes? It might save some time
That is a great idea, I didn't think about that.
I don't know how the barter button works, if it really just picks the right amount of money, it would be a big timesaver.
Speedruns usually don't allow pre-prepared blueprints
Didn't know that. Should i ever do another run I'll keep that in mind.
How did you start at 55 population, 1k science and 22.5k money?
There is a title that gives you 1000 science and 45 additional settlers.
I think the money also comes with a title.
Titles are tied to achievements in the game.
How did you start with 50+ garthimi?
There is a title (achievement) that gives you 45 additional settlers and 1000 science.
So you start at 55 population with that title.
