Be warned you coud softlock yourself if you don't research the tech to make your own science before the initial burst runs out, especially the green one, since it requires green science to unlock (a bit of a catch22). There is also a bug that causes the paid lab (where you can buy science for credits) to not spawn on the map. My save got completely screwed over because of this and i had to restart from scratch as i was hardlocked out of the science tree.
I have a factory game on my phone that i did that with but with building mats. My resource ran completely dry before i could build a new miner. So I didn't have any of the basic bu8lding blocks and no way to get more.
Same thing happened to me. Wasted all that time just to realize the "Paid Lab" wasn't there nor was the Contract system working. Restarting the storyline seemed to have fixed things...so far.
I think I bricked my save because science is timed, and I did not manage to research medical nor the green science lab under Social. I'm quite convinced it's going to happen for your playthrough too (you need to have green research going constantly and somewhat tunnel vision the social tech tree).
@@CostelloDamian It's not there if you select hardmode (rescue first), nor is there an option to pay credits for research such as in the contracts route.
@@Jahvec I'm playing "hard mode" I selected rescue. It's here. Hmm maybe camps are random? You just need to drive to it with your Rover to make a selection. I had the same problem. Green science flow ended before I finished the air vent research
@@CostelloDamian It's either random or it got fixed since it did not appear to me, I did load the save and double checked today. It appears to me in the contracts run but not on old loaded crew rescue.
@@Jahvec A dev comment on the Steam forums suggests that the paid lab not spawning was a bug that was fixed after launch, but that it doesn't fix screwed up saves, so if your save had the bug then you have to restart.
one thing i have noticed about this game is that there are far too many ways a player can dead end their gameplay. some of those are due to bugs, but others are kind of irritating based on how science is obtained and expended.
kind of point of the game. its blend between forstpunk and satisfactory according to the devs. If youve played frostpunk youll know how unforgiving that game is on bad choices. so losing or getting hardlocked due to bad choices on your first try is something that shouldn't be rare.
@@sir9129 IMO the problem is you don't just "die" straight away here. If you run out of science packs before researching said science packs - you can waste half an hour or so before understanding this save is screwed. If there's no "game over" screen after your bad decision - it should automatically be counted as "unintentional". Frostpunk allows you to play with your bad decisions and see your downfall spiraling and spiraling. Here you just stop and idle.
@@sir9129 The difference between Frostpunk and this is the difficulty in Frostpunk is designed around adaptation, not foreknowledge. Even if you plan poorly you can still work around it and survive. Here if you don't know what's coming you're probably screwed and there is nothing you can do about it. I don't mind difficulty, but I shouldn't have to be a time traveler to manage success. That is not challenging, that's just trial and error that any monkey could achieve.
From what I have been reading, buying stuff rather than making it is a significant part of this game, especially early on. Not that I yet understand how you get steady cash flow either.
I completely failed this mission and came here to watch before I restart. I run out of components and you need to components to build the component factory to make more components and I was at a completely loss.
I'm finding the sound design of this game in general quite stressful. The music makes me really on edge and the constant noises from the UI are quite annoying once you notice them.
Love the game and the lets play so far, I'm just weirdly bothered by that space station orbit decaying over an airless world and their occupants bracing for a hard landing... The game seems so accurate and detailed that this silly thing little sticks out like a sore thumb to me : why not have them run out of O2 and HAVE to leave the station in a transport/lander that also has limited air supplies. Same urgency, but with a slightly more believable scenario... EDIT : I just remembered, mascons are a thing over the moon and will mess up most orbits over time...
7:45 Because they are using AI generated voices. That character probably needs an accent to sell the fact they are from S.A. and Ai voice generators are not up to doing convincing accents yet. They probably tried, then scrapped it.
They just dropped a update and it looks like they are trying to fix story mode and the timing between events and such, your agrivation at the lack of apparent play testing by the devs is warented.
First thing i do is put in an extra iron and silicon smelter, extra concrete press. I then leave the 5 mining drones to go nuts. I am about to replace most of the stuff i have underground and use the infrastructure i have underground to process's all the surface material gained MDR. I did the build the living quarters mode and only got 4 of them , the rest perishes , wasted my time and resources on the walking dead so restarted , gave the finger to the orbital station. Wasted 2 or 3 RL hrs for nothing thanks developers.

The multi regulit processor is the efficient building be because it doesn't turn the not designated elements into slag.

There are quite the number of hard locks in this game. I got fecked several times for different reasons. Really bad design.
hold shift which salvaging to drag, its not a box but it saves the clicking. also research research labs ASAP
Save often so you don't lock your self out if you want to guarantee success in some missions.
Not sure if anyone has said it already, but the voice acting in this game reminds me of Ixion.
"...and the number to be counted shall be, three."
Thank you, stranger of the Internet, for another episode of delicious "Crust".
Have a good day!
Can’t wait to see your efficient layouts 😃
I didn't care about flickering sounds until you mentioned it 😁 now they piss me off haha
Try salvage instead of dismantling it might work better

Yeah, that clicky-clicky on mouseover is very intrusive.
I ran out of components well before I'd unlocked any option to make them - back to the start for me...

@@Latronibus Interesting. You kind of lock yourself out of the early trade options taking the rescue mission though, I think.
More please!
You can build 2 extractors per ore deposit to double the yield. You just need to build them side by side on the edges. How do you copy buildings?

Are there any microtransactions?
No, there are not. Be warned tho, it's early access and a bit rough around the edges.
2:45 Привезти/увезти. Why there are russian?
Cause game made by russian developers
@@gdsmiler they spend some effort to not to talk about it.
