on an iceberg layers meme minecraft would be on the very top and factorio would be one level below water

>shit graphics
>too easy
>early access

kill yourself

Well he just said minecraft is those things, why are you so angry?

(You)

I like factorio but at some point you plateau, autism can only take you so far. That or (autistically) copying efficient designs from other people's games.

I consider myself a smart guy but I feel like a brainlet playing Factorio.

One game being good or not has no impact on another.

>buy factorio
>can't even understand the tutorial

being a brainlet is suffering

It's unironically easier to try and forge your own path initially. Even if it's inefficient and Spaghetti from top to bottom, it's a learning experience.

It's okay user, just one baby step after the other.

still, it's amazing how the most basic of shit completely fucks me up

it's like, in the very first tutorial, the game makes me put down some robotic arm thing to move some sort of mineral from one place to another, but it just refuses to do it automatically and keeps stopping and stuff

I don't remember exactly what it was but I must have tried that part 3 times following the instructions exactly and it still doesn't work

would be nice if I could access the tool tips at any time instead of being forced into reading 30 fucking tabs of them and being expected to remember it all

An inserter will not insert any items into an assembler if there is no room for it to insert the item. You always need at least 2 inserters for every assembler. First for input and the second for output.

Either that or you have no electricity.

My favorite part of the game is getting started with some basic coal or w/e, getting that copper supply chain start etc. When you start seeing something coming together ex nihilo.

But then it gets really complicated with having to automate everything and if you don't pain it right using tunnels and stuff you wind up with a huge clusterfuck of a factory.

Even using extensive planning I found myself bottlenecked after it gets into three or four steps of production.

being bad at factorio is part of the fun

I enjoy loading my old save files and feeling appalled at how retarded I was

with each save, I can see the layers of mistakes and improvements

You get (1) bump from me.

>I enjoy loading my old save files
oh no

Factorrio is a weird game.

Sank over 100+ hours and still don't think i like it.

Its just one of those games that kills time softly.

What is this game about? A Stronghold for modern audiences or something?

it's like an extremely drawn out game of space chem

no. literally making a giant self sustaining (as possible) factory.

The alien attack based on pollution, but are really more of a whip to keep you building and they are optional and adjustable in world spawn.

Factory and base building simulator. With mods, it's more of a sanity test.

>tfw my first rocket took 30+ minutes to build
>all the processing units were made by two assembly machines
>low density structure production was completely separate from the main factory and hand loaded with materials
>so was engine production because getting all those iron products in one spot was hard
It's like looking at baby pictures

What makes a good factory?

minimal staff.

Minecraft
>fun

Factorio
>spreadsheet autism

10 rockets per minute

>not 60 per second

What's a good mod to install? been playing vanilla all this time. Heard bob's and angel's mod is good but i see so many with that name on the list i dont know which to install

If you want an "ULTIMATE AUTISM EXPERIENCE, 1000% MADNESS" playthrough, install the entirety of both the Bob and Angel mod suites. Pic related is most if-not all the recipes from the Angel's Chems mod.

so you got
trains
blueprints
more drones than us army
spess mehreen armor and weapons
but the facotry will always need you to expand to new ores yourself
if they come up with a fix for rhis, it'll be perfect

Install all of bob's mods and roll with that. Don't mix them, you will regret it.

Do not do bob's + angels on your first try. Each mod by themselves is enough to overwhelm.

what TEh FUCKj
..im pretty sure i studied those chemicals during my undergrad, now i need to relearn those for a game?
sign me the fuck up

youtube.com/watch?v=xF--1XdcOeM

That's just Angel's Chems. If you go ALL THE FUCK OUT, you will be learning orders of magnitudes more shit.
Gimme a sec and I'll give you a laundry list of shit I used last I played.
I wouldn't recommend it all until you got a good grasp on both.

Nah, it isn't that bad. You can literally look up all the recipes on the mod wiki or foreman.

FUCK TRYING TO AUTOMATE RESEARCH
I BUILT AN ENTIRE CITY DEDICATED TO AUTOMATIC CRAFTING(and i still have to extend it) AND NOW THESE BUG FUCKS RUNS UP TO ME FROM NOWHERE AND DESTROYS VITAL PARTS OF MY SYSTEM
how the fuck do people do automated crafting, i can't fucking handle these bug fucks

Build walls. Stock walls with turrets. Supply Gun turrets with ammo and Laser turrets with electricity.

kinda mad tho, you need significant amount of in-fields knowledge to do these, and to be doing these in a unpaid MOD, just, holy fuck
maybe if i found factorio with these mod during my studies i wouldnt suffering so much

So what's the point of the game? What do you use the factory for? Can you build a robot army to wipe out enemy factories? Do you build tanks and machine guns?

You are the only full-combat unit. You can make Drone Capsules that give you a bunch of short-duration fighting robots. You can plop down turrets by Alien bases and melt them. You can just run around and blow them up. The game's "goal" is to launch a rocket into Space.
The game's goal is to launch a rocket into Space every second.

well shit that's excellent

It would be better if it was like a hybrid RTS where you can build units to fight in some eternal industrial war, turning the world into a cratered polluted wasteland. Right now it's just a glorified tower defense game

Genocide the bugs

>Putting an entire car of sulfuric acid to waste
I'd be mad too.

Mods all updated. Compiling list now.

Here's what I used last time.
"The full dual suite" and a few extras, most notable of which is Factorissimo cause I like to stuff shit inside factory buildings.

Can you sort the list between for example, gui/qol improvement and add on? from what i've read i prolly gonna take my time exploring angel's and bob's addon

It'll be obvious when you check the mod pages, in-menu or Forum alike.

How does one game being good make another bad?

aite thanks much user god bless

You'll be cursing my name in time, friend.
>To make Iron and Copper, you need to dig up 2 of the new minerals
>Stuff them into separate Ore Crushers
>Sift out the Crushed ore and the Crushed Stone
>Put the Crushed ore into an Ore Sorting Facility
>Sift out the Copper, Iron, and Slag
>And then send off the Copper and Iron for processing into a usable substance
>Slag is used to make additional Crushed Stone

one game being better doesn't mean the other can't also be good

You don't know suffering

>Not going full autism with Angel's and bobs mods.

>tfw cannot play multiplayer games with friends because they fuck up even the most basic things and I don't want to force them to bus everything

This is probably the most retarded base design I have ever seen.
Congratulations, user

>A fucking carousel of Science packs
God.

Are trains required or a luxury?

Luxury. You can easily have continent-spanning beltways.

Where would space chem go and what would be at Chtulu depth
