Base deleted...but account recovered!
Thanks to everyone who reached out to warn me, help me, cheer me up, and even joined patreon at a time where all "rewards" are unavailable..., And also thanks to everyone who reportied the scammy stream / channel hijack to youtube. Thanks to the reports, my channel got taken down reasonably quickly, and further damage was prevented, both to my channel and for them scamming viewers. I think it was pretty clear to any regular viewer that the stream was a scam. After the takedown, a few people positioned in the right places reached out to me and helped to ensure an unexectedly swift recovery. Not all is over yet, there are still some security issues to solve, and some more research has to be done. Time supposed to be spent for video making has taken a significant hit, and it will take some more hits before I can get back up to speed. Therefore expect the next few episodes to be either a bit delayed, or a bit shorter.
And sorry for the cheesy thumbnail and title :s
Also, if you can't understand the video without subtitles, postpone watching, I'll get around to typing them up and adding them in a day or 2
I'm glad to see you were able to recover! Had me scared for a bit there.
All good, buddy. We're just glad to be able to watch your vids again. If you think time might be short, maybe think about replacing a couple of the UDWC videos in the future with redubbing the biter island/ribbon world videos? I'd love to rewatch them, but I prefer your voice to the yellow text, and theoretically it should be faster since the gameplay is already complete.
I'm so glad that your channel is recovered! I was really worried that something might have been lost to the hackers.
There's still great work to do to fully heal all the wounds, and I wish good luck to you and your channel!
So was it a genuine hack or was it a phishing email/site?
Thanks for the video! Although not showing us the final pollution output in the production tab is just cruel!
We need to finish the base first and switch it back on to see that... Next episode!
It will be in the next episode, when the green base is fully done and producing at full speed :)
I was more worried about how much the pollution spread since we last saw it.
While I was distracted watching episode two of the 100% evolution/achievements series, you made a great new episode of the DeathWorld series!
Ep2? Hasn't only one been released so far?
@@mihailoradovanovic7283 Patreon, $3 a month gets the episodes a week early
@@xlr20ice Well, thank you for the teaser!
the transition at 15:25 was so smooth, that was an awesome touch :)
I love it too, such a creative one!
cheese transition like in star wars
Glad you got it back!! Was worried those biters were to take one of my favorite series away for good!
Unless a behemoth biter snatches me in real life, this series is going to finish no matter how or where
@@MichaelHendriks *a biter or spitter
I don't think you have a gun IRL, Mike, but prove me wrong
@@kristofladanyi3671 this is why America exists
Wow, this has gone through so many transitions. From the frantic scrambling of grenading entire biter hoards, to running pumpjacks at full tilt hoping you get enough oil to last, to literally nothing but a handful of chests, to running around repairing walls waiting for bots to finish, to frantically grabbing an iron expansion, and now calmly planning an entirely different base with pollution (rather than throughput) as the primary variable. What a rollercoaster!
So different to see someone building at this stage and not going full t3 modules, and with efficiency to boot. It's a unique playthrough from start to end.
Man there was something somber and sad about slowly watching the old base get torn up but by bit. Goodbye old base, you served us well ;-;7
That moment at 15:25 was really nifty! I like how your editing style has continued to evolve and improve over the course of these videos.
OMG, I AM VERY HAPPY TO SEE YOU BACK!!!
The worry and dread, that your factorio sereas might never come back haunted me for days!
You are one of the best youtubers on this, I love your edit and voice overs! So masterfully crafted!!!
8:56 feels so energetic!
I'm glad everything got solved rather quickly and you got your channel back. I love your vids, and this one was soooo mesmerizing to watch due to robots doing robot things. Amazing to think of such a base in such a playthrough.
It seems you wanted your base to be as green as possible, so you made the water nearby also green! (21:56) Good job Michael 👍
20:42
Instead of burning coal in boilers, a nuclear reactor and heat exchangers could be used.
So much more environmentally friendly!
Glad the situation got resolved so quick Michael! :)
So excited for this ep! I have been watching since the start, at first I just watched when I got around to it, then I watched day of release, then I watched the minute it came out, now I am subbed to patreon and watch a week before it goes out!!! Series just gets better and better, I hope you keep making weekly content once the series concludes :)
25:47 damn bot deconstructing can be SO satisfying at times!
And I think you should have left the paths down as a momento to the old base.
You need to make sure that your green chip and steel manufacturing gets upgraded to pollution free manufacturing as well. It is situated a lot closer to the gaps in your forest, so it’s pollution gets to that lake and away easier
All I can say is thank you Michael! Thank you for making the Videos and putting work into the channel even when you dont really have the time for it
This video was already finished before the... event. I expect it will cost me a full week, all in all
“AAAAND ITS GONE!” lmao. Welcome back MikeHendi, glad you’re back.
@MichaelHendriks you should find a way to supply green nuclear steam into coal liquifaction as every boiler produces 30 polution per minute, which is an equivalent of roughly 60 beaconed assemblers. All efforts are dwarfed by those boilers :)
The steam consumption by coal liquefaction is fairly minor compared to steam power, but still, that is a good point actually. II don't think steam can be barreled though, which makes it a little annoying
I amazed by amount of calculation going off the screen. Even a productivity modules is a part of minimizing pollution cost of science points, since their strain reduction on production chain is taken into account as pollution reduction
Dear mr Hendricks, i found additional underrated use case for blue chests. You can use them as combinators. At first step you can copy factory settings into blue chest. At second step bots will fill chest by resources. At third step you can switch mode of chest into reading content and multiply signals from blue chest in 100 times and translate signals into logistic network for train dispatcher. It better than call all requests by hands + it maintain optimal ratio of consuming resources.
That does sound very useful, especially for train bases
**Loud slamming**
Oh no! Our mega base! It’s broken!
Not gonna lie. You got me with that title Michael! Glad to hear you're recovering OK.
15:26 amazing transition. Love the cinematography of these videos.
Good to see you return, my guy. You make good content and was sad to see you hijacked by those tesla crypto imbeciles.
We understand the need to create cinematic shots but this game is so much about the engineering, it might not be "sexy" for the camera and very difficult to film but the belt routing and decision making shouldn't be taken lightly. We want to see that shit!
I can't show ALL the small details in a 100h+ playthrough... But my "side project" will be a lot more... complete in that way
Good to see you back so fast! Was genuinely worried when I saw crypto scammers had stolen the account. 😬😬
MIKE! Thank God. Screw the base, the account is much more important. You make my evenings much better, I have no idea what would I have done without these videos. Glad it was resolved so quickly, take care.
Glad you're back, was looking for the series yesterday to listen to again and was bummed when I couldn't find your channel.
Now time to setup pipe walls and flamethrower turrets to fight off those behemoth biters ran across
Im glad you got your channel back. I was litterally in the middle of biter island when you suddenly disappeared. That sort of thing sounded really scary!
Another relaxing episode of the DeathWorld series.
Well, that's a way to say "Achieve world peace"
20:38 Wow, that’s some high quality “water”
I'm glad you were able to get your stuff mostly back and even joke about it in the title :) I was really worried about missing an episode today, but somehow you still deliver.... even after some enemy intrusion!
Thanks a lot. I was afraid you stop this ultimate green !
Glad you got the channel back been rooting for you.
I'm so glad to see that you got your channel back.
Fun fact, during uh "tesla stream" episode 2 of 100% evolution challenge was still accessible so we could watch it for maximum efficiency. Regardless of setbacks the factory must grow!
been wondering how to make more "green" bases, this gave me some inspiration, thank you
So glad that it is all fixed now, these videos truly scratch a itch I didnt know I had, best YT channel
I guess it's a good thing beacons don't produce any pollution themselves!
Also very happy to see you were able to recover your account!
RIP i hope everything is going well nice, thank you for another video through this chaos
Glad you are back in control!
Good to see another episode. I didn't see the stream/hack, but I'm glad you got it sorted out.
Loved some of the slick editing on display. Looks like you're learning some new tricks!
I was very worried when I checked and saw your youtube channel missing. glad you got it back!
It felt like saying goodbye to an old friend when you removed the old base
Hoi, volgens my is het LeGAcy met GA als in Lady GaGa 🌷 (voor wat het waard is). Thanks voor de video!
So happy you got your channel back so quickly.
my man trying to prod module the soil!
Grow, trees, GROW!
Very glad you were able to recover your account. I really love your videos so thank you for your work and effort
So glad you could get your channel back man! You make some great content and I would hate to see you lose it all
phew after 2 days of binging I am done and hyped for the next episode. I have to say: INCREDIBLE gameplay and ideas - especially early game - and even better entertainment!
time to watch your other videos :D
These low pollution builds are a bit rough around the edges, haha. But I suppose it’s not a thing commonly attempted.
I wast in a VC with a friend and then I saw tesla streaming then I said 'bro what is this why am I subbed to tesla is this new youtube ad system?' and unsubbed then continued my life.A few hours after I clicked michael's channel to look if he had any new videos...
Channel was removed.but I was still somehow subbed.Glad your channel is back!
8:51 I did NOT expect a South Park reference here
Great to see you got the account back! Looking forward to the rest of the series.
I'm so glad my dude is back. For a while, I thought I had lost a part of me.
Overjoyed to see you got your channel back so quickly.
In the last episode you should totally get a mod that allows you to grow trees to demonstrate just how effective trees are at dealing with pollution.
i find it funny how often you mention 80% energy usage reduction. while each beacon utilizing more than the assembler do xD
I kinda have to, since pollution output is hardlinked to power usage increase/reduction. Beacons don't pollute at all, so with clean power, their power cost is not important
@@MichaelHendriks which is perfectly fine, but the energy usage of the beacons outstrips the saved energy of the assembler many times over, which is why i find you pointing it out so often, pretty funny :)
Good end to the work week, thank you again Mikey for the entertainment.
So glad to see you back!!
Looking forwarf to the pollution statistics with the all new and green base :D
In the next episode, once the whole base is complete and producing!
You're an absolute legend, happy to see you back on YT!
Always good to see an addition to this series, keep up the good work!
Impressive as usual ! You have lots of good ideas, and yours explanations are greats ! I learn a lot on the game with this series !
Glad to hear you got the channel back, would hate to miss the rest of this series!
When converting coal into oil you should use the steam produced by your nuclear plant instead of burning the coal itself. Less pollution and less coal wasted to produce heat.
It's a good point, but i decided it would be too much hassle to achieve for a very minor overall effect
17:17 "You think you can hit me with artillery? I'm gonna paint a great big L with fire coz you're a loser Mike Hendi." Said the biter that hacked you.
So glad to see you back in business!
The Return of the King
glad you're back, i was worried there fr a sec
finally you are back, wanted to watch some bitter battles, and couldn't found your channel
Awesome video! I can't wait to find out how the new pollution output compares to the old one.
Also, do you ever plan on dubbing your older videos? I'm interested in checking out the biter island videos but I much prefer the dub to reading text.
I may take a look if it's possible for Biter Island DeathWorld, but the video editing process is quite different for text-over vids
@@MichaelHendriks No worries if it's too tricky! Appreciate the reply:)
Glad to see you got your account back so quickly.
I've never understood the necessity to consume less power after nuclear.
Just... more.
If costs are a concern, why not go for the squashed/bowtie beacon builds as opposed to square? You get greater beacon efficiency.
it's expensive to get to -80% pollution with less beacons
@@MichaelHendriks you can take that design and replace every other assembler with a beacon pair. Might need belt weaving but it's way better than the spaced out square design you used and you still get every assembler affected by 12 beacons
Ah, I see. IDK, given that I use mostly cheap eff.1 modules in the beacons, together with having "free"power, I'm not convinced using 20% less beacons or so would make up for the way, way harder belt routing, especially for the more complicated recipes. (Of course with the usual tier3 modules in the beacons the cost savings are much more significant though)
RETURN OF THE KING
25:10 the lights disappearing kinda looks sad
im so happy youre back!
there is very little i would say i truly dislike in factorio, the look of maximally beaconed bases however would have to be it.
good engineering on your part though, thank you for the series.
Yeah I don't like the look that much either, but at this stage it seems the best option
@MichaelHendriks yeah, can't blame anyone for making use of them as they are.
hopefully, the quality mechanic will mitigate the need for it somewhat, but I think that might be DLC exclusive?
diminishing beacons will probably matter more.
May I politely suggest turning off cloud shadows when you are recording for videos? It may help improve playback from the UA-cam compression due to less pixel updates.
Yeah, it's probably worth the trouble. Also less anoying with cloud "jumps" in editing when making small micro-skips (I've kept them so far because they do look nice in timelapses, and this series is mostly recorded by now)
Glad to see you back
Imo the title for this episode could be "in the memory of the old base". R.I.P.
HES BACK FROM THE HACKED REALM
Somehow i wasnt subscribed to you, either yt bugged or was it the hacking? Anyways this series has come a long way, and im happy for it, absolutely loving it!
Glad youre back!
Thank you !!!
This guys channel is really good
You need like 200,000 more bots my guy lol
Tier2 and Tier3 efficiency modules are obscenely underwhelming. How would one fix them?
Green deal very satisfying.
Thanks!
and thank you yet again :)
this is the best series on youtube
Were you "Tesla - inc" for a little bit there? I was wondering which of my subscriptions got hacked.
He's back!
I was expecting ".... green green base in green green peace .... *fade to black* .... *alert sound (wall break)*" so much so I double checked it wasn't there twice before posting ... :)
There are no things such as coincidences in video editing ;)
welcome back
Hacked and back in record time
