Coffee Stain’s April fools video was the first thing I watched this morning, I won’t be duped again, certainly not by a player who doesn’t even have a verified fixit employee badge
2:55 you forgot the mention the charcoal and biocoal alternate recipes. with these you can get more power out of your plant stuff but still have all the coal form the miners for steel production. and then switch to liquid biofuel as soon as you can
Dont forget automated miners so that you can produce resources without using power, also the compacted steel recipe is amazing for coal efficiency for those screws oh and dont forget to use molded steel beam recipe but it does need concrete so use the fine concrete recipe because who needs silica anyway?
I really hope they eventually put in alternates for steel beams and pipes; the bottleneck is really a pain in the butt for using certain other alternates.
That caterium trick for the nuclear plant is *brilliant*!!! I'm gonna go load up some storage containers and add a few splitters immediately! Thanks Kibitz!
Kibz, now I only have 1400 hours in Satisfactory, but I would like to add that when you have 50 biofuel burners it can help to have blade runners so you can constantly run between the burners and keep them full.😉
The "build a bunch of burners" is actually a good tip for before coal power. More burners = load more distributed = biomass burns slower = more time between refills.
I usually get up to around 8 or so Biomass burners (not counting the ones that are part of the HQ) before I swap to coal power. For me, it's the best balance between deep fuel reserves and the aggravation of checking fuel levels of multiple machines.
if you have the refined power mod its even better cause you just build automated ones and a plant to make biomass/solid biomass and theyll sort themselves out while youre exploring and building
The "useless nodes" tip at 5:40 is actually pretty damn solid. Quartz gives quite a few points - if you sink them until you actually use them, you can generate a lot of coupons early on with litlle to no effort and power usage. If you first produce the other "better" quartz stuff, it'll produce even more.
I have been searching favorite channels and game most of the day looking for this kind of content and must give props where due. One of the better April Fool's takes out there. Just enough legit advice to keep me watching for the stuff that was total joke. Most are just tossing out something patently unlikely.
No troll, I actually like the cast screw recipe if I find it in the early game. Before you can completely eliminate screws it saves on production steps and machine count. Not useful late game since you tend to avoid screws but if you find it in your first few hard drives it is useful!
Now I've heard a lot of people hate on caterium wire, but honestly I use it a lot, it saves so much time building giant infrastructure in places where I've already got excess caterium but don't have copper/iron nearby.
I would really really like a followup video of this that's actually helpful. I feel like you're one of the more experienced players to be explaining how people should use oil etc. I have two of your turbo fuel power plants now, I'm still preparing to jump straight into plutonium without having a basic nuclear phase.
I found this advice to be very helpful. I ran around the whole map converting every iron mine into a screw factory and now I almost have enough screws.
First! Great to see your still on Satisfactory kibz! Many give up sooner or later because they got bored :'( Loving the vids so far x THE PIONEER MUST CARRY ON TO THE 500K Mark x
I am mixed, the alternative Screw Receipt is a great one, but, then I realized you left out Steel Ingots and the Pure Iron and Copper ... I quickly saw where this was going (as if the title wasn't clear enough) ... also just realized this aired on April 1st
You monster Kibitz - Thanks to your video I was forced to drop all my other projects just to see it a factory cart can be made to follow a programmed track.
You forgot portable miner alt recipe, it is very important to automate them as soon as possible, so that you can bring the whole bunch with you wherever you go and have them mining those sweet resources you find along the way. Especially well if you use no mods for bigger inventory.
Man, I remember my first playthrough when I tried to get coal power as quickly as possible. What an absolute nightmare. I wish this video was out when I started playing!
nothing can be so bad that it can't be used at least as some deterrent example. and sometimes even give a new view on something and some (different) good ideas.
I find stitched iron plates extremely useful throughout the whole game, without it you need a ton more screws as you mentioned 😂 Great video as per usual, keep it up 👍
I was half asleep watching this think, ok yeah thats good. Then after a few tips I started thinking, "wait no that's not a good idea". Then I realized what day it was.
I've never made it past making steel in the game myself, I've always been more set on exploring. I was actually taking everything to heart until he brought up using the Fixcit cart instead of trucks and then I realized what day it is.
Watching this on April 3. I actually hope Kibitz takes this down soon, because it's not obvious it was posted April 1 and he does it so deadpan that some noobs might actually believe it. Also, it's hillarious. Thanks, Kibitz!
... I actually got something useful out of that video. I didn't know you could use factory carts in truck stops. I am absolutely going to have them running high value packages around the map now.
Can't believe I've never tried these myself. Can't wait to spend the first 150 hours getting a solid base of materials I produce by hand and I realize I haven't been automating enough screws. I'm glad I never really bothered with coal. I can't believe you suggested buying biomass though! Honestly I think that's just stupid. Buy the biofuel instead! Much more cost effective. I'm an accountant, so I promise the numbers add up.
Imo the iron screw recipe is the best, think it's something like 260 per 1 steel beam, grab a quick 60 line of ur steel beams n make a quick 15600 screws per minute
This kind of videos are always really helpful! I keep wanting to get back to the game but always end up doing other stuff instead of setting up a world of chaos xD
Why didn't you mention alternate recepie for coal? This is literally the most useful alternate recepie in the game! You can get 2000 coal from just a stack of wood. You can't automate it, so what? You don't need the infinite amount of coal, you just need a lot of it. Jokes aside it really is a useful recepie IN SOME CASES. I love it!

Good april fools :D :D And that little caterium-joke really got my... i basically died when you said caterium in the context of nuclear power :D :D What a nightmare that must have been for you.
Been watching your videos for so long, especially satisfactory. Been trying to use your tips to the best of my ability. I was wondering if you planned on doing a server build with subs to see how fast and efficient the server could build everything?
When the boombox came out I wanted to save coupons so I only bought the goat simulator tape and now that song haunts my nightmares because I listened to it way too much
sinking the extra resources that you can't / won't use at the moment while exploring is actually a good tip, especially for people who did not memorize the whole map
Once you have enough advanced iron parts (plates and rods) - you even can build an entire crafting bench AND a tools workshop *right next* to the resource nodes. This way you can forego the large miners. Just craft a bunch of those small auto-miners, place them all over the node - and voilla. No need for pesky belts OR electricity. Just repeat the process on every resource node you need.
Thank you for the amazing tips!! I'm already making hundreds of screws per seconds. And i found out the best way to store them is to just drop them on the ground! PS.: I might try the factory carts out in a heavy modular frame factory or something, bc then i dont have to do any beltwork to bring the outputs to the main storage
I actually find the alternative receipes quite good. There are receipes out there that will allow you to completely by-pass screws at the plate, rotor levels, which leaves your factory a lot more neat.
As a new player myself I found this tutorial very useful and made the game so much easier
Try taking a crab fly for a walk 100% better than a boring doggo

Is it bad that the alternate that lets you skip the iron rods step for screws is actually one of my favorite alternates?
Same here
My favorite is the Diluted fuel alternate recipe.
One of the best alts
I really hope they eventually put in alternates for steel beams and pipes; the bottleneck is really a pain in the butt for using certain other alternates.
I think the goal is to eliminate screws altogether. I haven't really played around with alternate recipes though.
Ok, well done. I finally realized what's happening two thirds into the video. The factory cart was too much 🤗
I finally got it when he advised to spend tickets on biomass lmao
I figured it out at the beginning because of the 10k iron lol
@@EmeraldJlan At that point I was like "man, it must have been a while since he played early game cause that is some awful advice" lol
It took me way too long to figure this out, though the creeping sense of horror started with "keep making more screws forever"
I got it at the useless quartz nodes
That caterium trick for the nuclear plant is *brilliant*!!! I'm gonna go load up some storage containers and add a few splitters immediately! Thanks Kibitz!
Mergers?
@@bwpbwp9613 Mergers...
That is the exact thing that almost killed his nuclear power plant
Important tip is also that Space Elevator is really endgame stuff. So you should ignore it for like first 300 hours before you get a hang of the game.
took me almost half the video to realize its an april fools joke
The moment he said ignore coal as long as possible... 😂😂😂
i didnt know till the end.....
really? 😮
Same
I was hoping he had some meta tips in there that might be useful in at least one way.

if you have the refined power mod its even better cause you just build automated ones and a plant to make biomass/solid biomass and theyll sort themselves out while youre exploring and building
Best part of the video is knowing how painful it must have been for you to merge that caterium into your nuclear set up
Never underestimate the power of a backup save. ALWAYS make backups btw. They will legitimately save your butt
2000? Man now I feel so much better about my playthrough. I'm no where near as creative as kibz. Always was so amazed at his vids.
Yea so am I, but not in the way you are.
I'm amazed his graphics card still works.
Took me all the way up until the bit about automating screws to remember what day this video was made. Well played sir, well played.
it took me no time at all when reading the title :-)
(or did he change the title afterwards?)
it took me up until sinking raw quartz to realise !! :D
The "useless nodes" tip at 5:40 is actually pretty damn solid. Quartz gives quite a few points - if you sink them until you actually use them, you can generate a lot of coupons early on with litlle to no effort and power usage. If you first produce the other "better" quartz stuff, it'll produce even more.
The same with Uranium Ore if you can find one early on.
0:28 That's it. thats all i needed to know. Finding copious amounts of beans is the most critical information a man can get.
If you follow these tips, you'll reach 2,000 hours of playtime too! Before you even finish all your milestones!
It will take you 1000 hours crafting ingots by hand and another 1000 hours collecting biomass.

When you added caterium to the uranium belt my heart literally skipped for a second. Genious idea, gotta use it everywhere!
I loved that one, a Easter egg for past-Kibz nightmares.

Cast screw is great for heavy modular frames.
Now I've heard a lot of people hate on caterium wire, but honestly I use it a lot, it saves so much time building giant infrastructure in places where I've already got excess caterium but don't have copper/iron nearby.
I didn't even realize until he mentioned coal power. I was like "eh, disagree but it might work for him" smh
got me good
I forgot this was a joke video and thought these tips would genuinely help me.
Could not have done it without this video! Keep up the good work Kibz!!

Kibitz, not giving us the tips we want, but giving us the tips we need.🙃
I found this advice to be very helpful. I ran around the whole map converting every iron mine into a screw factory and now I almost have enough screws.
That video hurts me in so many ways, I love it
As soon as he recommended screws I started laughing. GG kibz have a wonderful April Fools

2:34 I'd argue that now with the latest video (the one with Satisfactory +), he probably regreted saing that 😂
I just bought the game, looking forward to getting started! Your advice is greatly appreciated!
Oof…
I love the fact that you added the caterium thing😂
You forgot portable miner alt recipe, it is very important to automate them as soon as possible, so that you can bring the whole bunch with you wherever you go and have them mining those sweet resources you find along the way. Especially well if you use no mods for bigger inventory.
cast iron screws and any recipe that speeds up reinforced iron plates are my favorites.
Really took me 5 mins into the video to realize it was an april fool's video
well played kibitz
I like the Goat Simulator music tip, that's definitely my favorite, helped with the factory a lot
Man, I remember my first playthrough when I tried to get coal power as quickly as possible. What an absolute nightmare. I wish this video was out when I started playing!
“And it’s a really good maintenance exercise” 😂
I may have snorted
those are some SOLID tips!
Can't wait to start a new world using these! 😄
nothing can be so bad that it can't be used at least as some deterrent example.
and sometimes even give a new view on something and some (different) good ideas.
Not even one minute into the video and im already dying inside
You forgot to mention: Do not under any circumstances use foundations.
Okay, legitimately did not realize nuclear fuel rods could power vehicles.
Basically how I played this game until I watched a tutorial
I find stitched iron plates extremely useful throughout the whole game, without it you need a ton more screws as you mentioned 😂 Great video as per usual, keep it up 👍
the crafing metod i actually used for like a week lmao

All the formulas for screws..... I never knew. This made my game so much easier!!
i mean, the scre alts are actually good for the recipes where you need the screws
Finally, we get a good onboarding video for new players.
Really hits all the right notes.
Watching this on April 3. I actually hope Kibitz takes this down soon, because it's not obvious it was posted April 1 and he does it so deadpan that some noobs might actually believe it.
Also, it's hillarious. Thanks, Kibitz!
I think the crude oil turned straight into fuel made me laugh the hardest.

I don't care how much you emphasize it. I AM NOT GETTING FUEL FOR THAT MANY BURNERS!!! lmao
I didn't pay enough attention until you recommended the Goat Sim soundtrack. Then I said '2000 hours? What, last month? Wait - Ohhhhhh.' Good one!
Ayyy, stoked that you'll be at LTX!! less stoked that I won't be there. Will be a blast!
I’m a kind of experienced player with almost 600+ hours on the game. Ngl I did almost every single thing in this video 😅
I've never been so efficient at making screws until this video
This kind of videos are always really helpful!
I keep wanting to get back to the game but always end up doing other stuff instead of setting up a world of chaos xD
Hahaha, Nice video. Pretty new to the game, i have like 150 hours in. Really love that game !
Gotta admit,. this was such a refreshing satisfactory video :D amazing stuff. an funny how we all have somwhat done all of these amazing tips ;)
im 50% sure this is a april fools vid... the other 50% is just the probability of kibitz losing his mind from building... or from the goat music
Love your videos!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!
I actually use ficsit cart inmy factory to delivers nuclear furl rod to reactor since it doesn't require a huge throughput it's the perfect vehicule
Hey, I actually use that steel to screw recipe! I sometimes turn my entire factor to steel mode in so much as is possible

Good job < 3
I was laughing too hard until you nuked the doggo... too far man, too far. LMAO
A normal looking guide from professional as an April joke. How cruel. I love it!
My number one tip: Always leave things for future you to sort out! This way you never run out of things to do!
2:07. That's how long it took.
LOL this april fools video was sooooo subtle, i was confused watching this until we reached the oil part
exactly how I started satisfactory
I have watched you play this game for ever. I have over 3200 hours in the game as well and still love playing it!

sinking the extra resources that you can't / won't use at the moment while exploring is actually a good tip, especially for people who did not memorize the whole map
My man Kibz be using uranium to power his trucks🤣🤣
Also I'd say that last tip is probably the worst one of them all.
I'm sad half way through is when I finally realized what tips I missed.

Naa, they are useless in general.
Also, as Kibz said, you just need to produce more screws.
