    You make this look so easy 😂 I'm very new to factorio, my mate at work calls it cractorio because it's so addictive, he convinced me to get it but I don't have a PC so I'm playing it on my Nintendo switch. I thought it would be a great game for my ADHD brain but it's proving very difficult for me to wrap my head around it all. I literally couldn't even pass the 4th level of the tutorial 🤦

      @AgrippaTheMighty 11 місяців тому

      I've got it both on PC and the Switch but I prefer to play it on the switch b/c it's silent, and unlike the PC, the Switch doesn't emite a lot of heat. My answer might seem a little odd for some but my PC is close to me and you can feel the heat when turned on.

    You don't actually need one of every science per second. As research scales, singular packs of science take longer to process, so it really is only an end-game/mega base requirement.

    Super excited to see another Factorio series, Nathan. I wonder, when you are ready to do another one, whether you would try the “Ribbon World” scenario. I’ve done it myself and really enjoyed the way it forced me to change my approach. Given that you are a much more skilled Factorio player, I’d really like to see how you handle it.

      Using logistic wires early lets me build a cool sushi belt mall that uses a counter that places items on the belt when an assembler picks things up. That lets me pack 44 assemblers into a small area, and it all works like a charm.
      I've seen the same mall built over and over again, so I wanted to do something different. 😁

      I managed to get decent main bus with all needed base materials and a line of red/green science in about 2 hours of play, but no matter how well I think I'm doing I see super clean and obvious designs like in the video. But of course I'm too far in to redesign anything so I either restart with better knowledge or keep going with what I got. Either way I'm never satisfied.

    Sorry for my bad English. So the Google translator has to help me… I like your channel, specially Factorio, because I also play it. I have learned a lot from you.
    So finally I have an idea for your next Season. Do you ever chance at the beginning the „Research factor“? So that all researches need a lot more from the beverages? Then you really build a Megabase. In my third attempt I actually play with research factor 50. but because I‘m relative new to play the game, I don‘t use any MOD…
    Here on UA-cam you Even can find a gameplay with the, I think it‘s the Maximum adjustable level, research factor 1000!
    I tell you, this is fascinating to watch!!!

      It's from the game, you use ctr-c and -v like in a word document. And if you're looking for the blueprints book that was b if I remember correctly. Don't forget that you have to have a rocket launcher in at least one game before you get access to some of these tools.

Before choosing I tried looking up which one I should go for, but couldn't really tell a difference other than UI, so I went with the most downloaded one (max rate calculator). You chose the other one, what was the reason? Do you know both?
