Not gonna lie I was very biased against this game due to its track record with epic exclusivity, but I’ve heard great stufd about it and been having lots of fun so far
I tried it to see what it was like and didn’t like it, but it’s hard to deny the quality that it’s there. I liked the exploration better than the factory stuff. I know that it is called satisfactory and not satisexploring.
I liked the factory stuff until it got too complicated for me lol
I’ve built and destroyed and rebuilt everything like 5 times after unlocking new things and it just got too overwhelming the last time I felt like I had to destroy my stuff.
If you ever give it another shot, I’d highly recommend going vertical with your factories. You can do each step of a production chain in a different floor to keep your factories smaller. As the machines in the game are very large, verticality helps a lot with the space management. Another tip to make it less complicated would be to use the satisfactory tools website. There you can specify production per minute for an item and it lists you the whole production chain.
Ever played No Man’s Sky?
No, I really dislike random generated stuff. I like stuff like subnautica, and this has similar vibes.
I used to hold up Squad and Kerbal Space Program as the gold standard of early access campaigns, but Coffee Stain Studios blew them out of the water. The update trailers alone have been worth the price of the game.
This trailer is my favorite even though it’s old now.
Tap for spoiler
It’s when they added pipes to the game.
Man during my play time on this I wasnt tracking updates and this shit broke EVERYTHING for me as coal worked without water previously. It was so borked I just washed my hands of it and started over but gaaaaah did that SUCK
Probably one of the most in-touch devs with their community and they’ve been super transparent and consistent throughout their entire early access journey. They basically showed how early access should be done in the best possible way. Been playing 1.0 for awhile but am a bit intimidated knowing I need to rebuild my trash ‘factories’ lol.
Lasagna dreams, spaghetti reality.
honestly the straight option for Belts has been a life changer for clean factories
I’m also surprised how much the full release has taken off. One of my favourite things has been watching streams of people 100% new to the game to see how they solve things.
I was skeptical of the alien tech but dimensional depots rule.
You can solve things? I had bought it and was waiting for release… and now I’m just building lots and lots of conveyors. I sort of have this fun idea to create a Mr. Bones ride with them… using clipping to push the character onto the next conveyor sliding along to the first.
That game has done physical harm to me from the amount of time I’ve played it in the last few weeks.
I literally repurchased the game on Steam at release 100 percent because I wanted to support them further. Having one less reason to ever use Epic was just an added bonus. If you love factory games and want to try something new, I recommend Satisfactory, HIGHLY. It does things differently than other factory games, but none of it is a downside. You still build your factories, but there’s so much more depth to everything. I feel like the difficulty curve on it would be brutal for players new to the genre, but if you’re experienced with factory math, this game is amazingly well done. I believe I have over 700 hours and I’m doing another playthrough solo, and another with my son. It’s that good.
I played 100 hours before I found out Sprint was shift. And I loved every minute of it
I also like the fact that they give you options to use an epic account, steam account, or just direct ip if you wanna play with friends.

I knew I would play this like a crack addict considering I put well over 1000 hours in Factorio, but was waiting for release. I slipped back to my 3am bedtime…
Still no golf though 😡
Golf is inefficient. The factory must grow.
How else are the golf balls going to be efficiently put into their homes
I read this as Seven of Nine
Good.
