Also I think you are missing something by not fully getting the 'satisfactory' branding fully running, lets be honest thsi is a satisfactory media channel and I'd be up for other satisfactory gear, maybe a satisfactory employee of the week, or a satisfactory employee mug, satisfactory performance guaranteed t-shirt,. You can have those suggestions for free ๐Ÿ˜‰

Are we sure this game isn't just a Germany simulator???

Holy shit. How the hell did Simon get the wrong info out?

didn't they say the area is 30 km2

oops caps

Which is like 5.5km X 5.5km

Umm didn't it get a whole lot smaller?

#

yea (to sam)

#

36 ish times

uncut cypress
#

I don't think you understand square kilometres

digital timber
#

That's what I thought as well. But it was told to me that it's not 30km30km, but rather 30sqkm30sqkm.

uncut cypress
#

That's now how it works

#

Square kilometres is a square area

sand charm
#

30 km sq = 5.5km x 5.5 km
900 km sq = 30km x 30km

ok 30 times smaller

digital timber
#

Oh lord....all the maths....

uncut cypress

Square kilometres is the area of a square

#

Not a single length

digital path

kilometers is a single lingth

#

uncut cypress

It's squared tho

#

itd have to be squared or cubed

#

yes, im agreeing with you

what if it is a circle xD

Okay

@golden goblet Still square ๐Ÿ˜‰

'Actually, itโ€™s not even a whole planet. Itโ€™s just a small bit. But itโ€™s still pretty big, 30km2. That means about 5.4x5.4km.' โค

That is Hell-a Big

#

As a reference, the skyrim map is around 37 km2.

Even bigger than "The Center" One of the biggest maps for ARK

That's why I asked if the video was a troll

I can't post the picture here though.

we can use more trains then ๐Ÿ˜„

uncut cypress
#

Are the team really that bad at telling us how big the map is

sand charm
#

I think that is plenty big enough for trains

placid merlin
#

And I suppose by the look of things that this game was made in UE4? Correct me if im wrong#

uncut cypress
#

It's simple measurements

sand charm
#

UE4 confirmed earlier

uncut cypress
#

Are they American?

signal musk
#

Since it seems like itโ€™s being made in unreal, I imagine mods will happen

Mods maketh the game

#

Awesome! Cant wait to get my hands on a dev kit and make a custom planet

#

@uncut cypress i think theyre somewhere in north eastern europe

jagged night
#

30kmยฒ or 30 square km means that it is about 5.4 x 5.4 km big. That is about 5.4km wide and 5.4km deep/long.

uncut cypress
#

The website says 30km2

placid merlin
#

I had so much fun making a world for ARK but it got so difficult with all the shiz going on on it with the millions and millions of spawn volumes for stufff that i kinda go lost

Is the website wrong too

Or is jace wrong

@severe sequoia I'll drop UI and just make levels from now on

For math?

digital timber

Yes.....

@placid merlin no 30km2 x 30km = 900km3

so satisfactory is actually just a really advanced minecraft mod?

"There's multiplayer but you would be lucky to find anyone"

Game released and mined
No multiplayer code at all

placid merlin
#

if there be no mp code... does that mean we get 3 AI's to help us chainsaw those trees?

uncut cypress
#

I was talking about nms

eternal current
#

I still think that there was always the intention of adding multiplayer but sony forced NMS to release too soon

signal musk
#

People drones

dreamy flax
#

lol

digital path
#

satisfactory is just nomans sky on one planet

eternal current
#

I also think that hello games was too small to ever release a proper NMS

digital path
#

in some aspects

placid merlin
#

Ah NMS... the meme of all memes regarding games

modern lintel
#

No Man's Sky has MP now, it was never promised at release, which is part of why he went silent instead of trying to do PR

signal musk
#

They seem to be getting better now tho

modern lintel
#

it's pretty awesome now

eternal current
#

and that it would just be stuck in development hell untill HG went under if sony hadn't forced it out

modern lintel
#

and it's going to have full blown multiplayer soon, in a MASSIVE free content update coming soon "No Man's Sky NEXT"

placid merlin
#

inb4 they call it NMS NXT

#

And then Lego sues them

eternal current
#

all things considered, I think what we have now is the best possible outcome for NMS, though they could've handled the release better

#

warn that due to development problems they would need to release an incomplete version

signal musk
#

NMS will always be a meme in my heart tho

modern lintel
#

honestly, they should've released it as early access

#

then have NMSNEXT be 1.0

uncut cypress
#

Mp literally was promised

#

By that dumb guy

modern lintel
#

it was promised, not promised at launch

uncut cypress
#

He lied about just about everything

modern lintel
#

almost none of the stuff that they announced was promised at launch

#

they said they had a 2 year content update plan

#

much of that is part of the 2 year content plan

#

and now it's a 4 year content plan

#

pretty awesome, tbqh

uncut cypress
#

Still technically lying

#

He said it as if it would exist on release

modern lintel
#

no such thing as "technically lying"

#

you're either lying or you're not

uncut cypress
#

Didn't specify that it wouldn't be till post release

#

That's lying by omission

modern lintel
#

facedesk

eternal current
#

and I still think that if they just said "Fuck it that flood nearly did us in, we need to release as an early access game" people wouldn't have been nearly as angry

modern lintel
#

the anger would be nonexistent if they went the early-accesss route

#

but then there's the stigma of early-access

#

many would think it would get abandoned

#

or it would be permanent beta

#

like most early access games

uncut cypress
#

It would have been fine like that

eternal current
#

It would've had less initial sales but overall they would have more people keeping the game and not refunding it

I got a mention in this channel but can't find it :(

I'm sure there will be difficulty settings etc to dumb down the mobs if you feel it takes away some of the fun

digital timber
#

The world is just to big. If things were constantly attacking your stuff, and you had to go from corner to corner of Skyrim to fix it, you'd never get anything done.

It should be like an option. Structure damage/No damage

digital timber

This world is only slightly smaller than Skyrim.

Just have automatic turrets or something

gentle thunder

Combat could be configurated in the server, or map... but I have to admit... I liked to know that I can explore and came back and my base will still there! hahaha

digital timber
#

I think it's a pretty nice move. The world is just to big. You'll have to have 3 or 4 outposts already, defending all that will be a full time job.

chrome horizon
#

eh, it works on factorio

digital timber
#

Well maybe they'll make a mod for it then.

chrome horizon
#

even tho i kinda dont like it ๐Ÿคฃ

#

then again, its kinda the point in factorio, and not here

gentle thunder
#

Factorio has a different approach

#

It works because is more dinamic... you can move faster and have a macro vision because of top map vision...

#

I thing the Satisfactory approuch was a good idea... but, a would like to have a option to set more hardcore if I want...

chrome horizon
#

lets get the game first

gentle thunder
#

Good idea! hahaha

#

prevision for a beta?

merry venture
#

I agree

unkempt helm
#

It works on Factorio because it has gun-turrets that can shoot over buildings.

....Which is actually not a bad approach.

@ivory plaza you can save one vertical space by making it non-symmetrical

i love how we have this heated factorio agument in this server

True. I want to find a cool island map. But not the seablock mod (too fiddly)

modest stump

I did find one, I'll see if I can find it again

Thereโ€™s a dood who can make custom maps. He had these cool soy sauce fish islands around a soy bottle map I saw.

I love Factorio and I think I will also love this game :D

Ya. Been playing Factorio on my channel. Totally hooked all over again

Thanks mate, will study

Cool.

I had this crazy idea to operate a megabase via Radar and Construction blueprint

#

never venturing off the island, and all item transport to/from the island is by air (bots)

also limiting it to not using any landfills

Haha tricky. Cute idea

@glossy sapphire, Can we have a FAQ channel where you or other devs can post answers to some of the questions that keep going on in here?

glossy sapphire
#

we have that on the website, which is linked in #welcome

#

and we have made some updates to it due to new FAQs

weak charm
#

I'm thinking even more detailed than that

glossy sapphire
#

hmm what other questions would you suggest?

hollow birch
#

will there be an Ikea mode where we can Automate the production of furniture?

weak charm
#

Will you support unofficial modding?

What will be the max build height?

Can you build structures like walls to place your factory inside?

Will ores have random placement? so that you can build random train paths for each play through?

I'm guessing that creatures will have specific caves or areas, care to elaborate?

Do you have a roadmap for when things are being worked on that can be followed by the community?

Are you able to elevate the ground so that you can have various platforms that the trains come into?

Will there be decoration things? Like lamps, flowerbed etc.?

Are you planning on adding random generated maps down the line? Will you add more static maps?

From what I understand terrain deformation will not be a thing, I'm guessing due to performance related things, care to elaborate?

Will there be a ghost function where you can lay out your factory before you build it?

@glossy sapphire

glossy sapphire
#

well all of these are details we havent announced/confirmed/denied yet

dense plover
#

what is every game secret that you aren't revealing until alpha?

misty iris
#

Lol

glossy sapphire
#

there's nothing wrong with asking

sand charm
#

Just deny everything even after it appears in patch notes, patch notes are going to be a thing aren't they?

glossy sapphire
#

most likely

weak charm
#

I understand that you haven't confirmed or denied anything yet, I'm guessing you are taking user input as you go after the alpha is out so you can change certain aspects of the game, but it would be nice to have something to chew on while we wait

hollow birch
#

Will you be able to Marry other players like in Stardew Valey?

spring sleet
#

No dont

#

stop it

misty iris
#

Oof

weak charm
#

Everything can be subject to change in a game like this, but do you have any answers for stuff that is already in the game?

glossy sapphire
#

well we just revealed the game this week so we dont want to unveil everything at once. and yes we will take feedback during the alpha.

#

we have answered quite a few things. some buildings, combat, vehicles, multiplayer, verticality (multi-storied buildings) etc.

One question, do you have any idea how exclusive the alpha will be?

glossy sapphire

nope

Do you know if you will be able to self host games?

most of what i can answer has already been revealed in the FAQ/interviews etc.

misty iris

That's fair.

Fair enough

agreed

want me to remove that?

south terrace
#

nah ur good. its not too bad

digital timber
#

Lol. All jokes here man.

wheat bough
#

tor is actually pretty good. Like firefox, but slower and blocks most scripts (can be configured). The downside is that it likely puts you on a watchlist

#

also, look at what snutt is playing

south terrace
#

sounds bout right

outer night
#

Pretty hard to know that you are running it tho

#

Is not like they know every program you run

#

I dont think windows leaks that sort of information

south terrace
#

yes

#

discord has a list of games in its own db

#

which im pretty sure just combs steam db

#

also has applications

wheat bough
#

i heared there's a TOR handshake or something. Basically that is tracable (but only reveals you are using the network, and not what you are using it for)

south terrace

and i think the fall back is any full screen application - grabs the window title

You can also manualy rename applications in discord

?

digital timber
#

Looks like I'm out of the video making business for Satisfactory for a while. RoosterTeeth decided to claim the trailer as their own, so all of my videos have been claimed.

digital path
#

whom?

digital timber
#

A bigger YouTube channel.

digital path
#

oh

#

that sucks

digital timber
#

Yep, but that's how the game goes, big channels use content ID to shut down smaller channels. It's part of their game.

digital path
#

yeesh

#

how could they claim a video?

digital timber
#

Because there is nothing I can do about it.

#

They have an automatic system, so if they make content using the trailer, they claim everyone else's.

digital path
#

nono, like is it not copyrighted?

digital timber
#

Nope. Just claimed by them.

misty iris
#

RoosterTeeth claimed the Satisfactory Trailer?

digital path
#

thats stupid

misty iris
#

How does that even work.

digital path
#

^

#

is what im tryna get at

digital timber
#

They claimed all content featuring it. Because I guess they used it.

misty iris
#

That sucks.

digital path
#

huh

#

anyways

#

im gonna try out ab

digital timber
#

The way claims are set-up on YT, they don't have to give a reason. It's all automated.

digital path
#

ah

spare wedge
#

@digital timber So if you make a video with nothing but stuff from the trailer, YouTube will take it down?

#

Because they said it was theirs?

digital timber
#

Yes.

digital path
#

wow

#

thats effed up

digital timber
#

They don't take the video down, per say. They take all monetization as their own, and since my video is not monetized anymore, youtube pushes it to the bottom of search results.

digital path
#

ah

#

still sucks

digital timber
#

And puts RoosterTeeth front and center.

spare wedge
#

DM JemBawls about it, he's the community manager for Coffee Stain, so if anyone can do something about it, he's the one

digital timber
#

I did. But he's away from work right now.

#

And unless he has a YT contact, not sure there is much he can do.

spare wedge
#

How can you tell that Rooster Teeth claimed it?

digital timber
#

Claimed by RoosterTeeth llc

digital path
#

how can they copyright something from a company>?!?!

#

did coffeestain not copyright it?

digital timber
#

Don't know.

#

This is an abuse of the content ID system. People get banned for this all the time. But aren't going to touch them. They make YT to much money.

digital path
#

maybe they could not allow them to claim things for a year and not allow them to make satisfactory videos?

#

thatd be a slap in the face

tame elk
#

That suck Killa hope someone can help you ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

digital timber
#

The wouldn't be good for Coffee though. They need the big guys more to get the info to more people.

@digital timber post it on reddit

Rooster Teeth plays a lot of Factorio

Theyโ€™ll all get outraged

Buncha free karma

#

Maybe r/YouTube ?

digital timber
#

I'm not going to do that.... I don't like burning bridges. Companies are mean. Doesn't mean I have to stoop to their level.

merry quarry
#

Fair enough

digital timber
#

They obviously need the money more than I do if they are willing to steal other people's work.

merry quarry
#

You shouldnโ€™t think of it that way.

#

Theyโ€™re just being greedy and trying to get as much as they can

digital path
#

no, killa may be right

merry quarry
#

Even if they do need money enough to start falsely claiming videos

#

Theyโ€™re going to get off without even a slap on the wrist

#

And that makes me really angry :/

digital timber
#

Yep. Welcome to YouTube. Lol

merry quarry
#

So my dad runs (or used to) run a vlog

#

And in one of the episodes my sister was singing some song right

#

Fair enough, she was just singing while my dad played the guitar, nothing to get concerned about

#

The guys who made that song copyright claimed the video

#

Because someone was singing a song.

#

-_-

digital path
#

thats jut rude

merry quarry
#

I explained to my dad how that wasnโ€™t legal and that he should make an appeal, we did, we won.

#

We still get strikes like that occasionally

#

:/

digital timber
#

I can appeal, but RoosterTeeth has an automatic system. The very next video I release, they'll claim again.

merry quarry
#

Thatโ€™s mega gay

tame elk
#

They claim because you show the trailer in the background ?

digital timber
#

Meaning they'll make the money immediately when the video is released.

#

Yes @tame elk

tame elk
#

Hmm and if you show just a picture of the trailer that work ?

#

With your commentary*

merry quarry
#

Theyโ€™ll probably claim it anyway lol

#

We have this cool dude called MalazaN making music for our videos

#

And people try and claim the videos because of his music

#

...Even though he made it specifically for us...

digital timber
#

Yeah they'll probably claim it anyway.

tame elk
#

Hmm ok really not cool

digital path
#

tf

digital timber
#

I mean the only way around it would be Webcam maybe, but that'd be lowering the quality of the videos by a lot.

digital path
#

people like webcams tho

#

facecam whatever

#

for somereason idk

weak charm
#

@digital timber, Can't you just chop up the trailer and place it back together in another order?

#

Or play it in reverse ๐Ÿ˜‚

Damned if I know. Looks shady as hell.

digital timber

Well they need to get it fixed then!

#

They have YT contacts, they can take care of this easily.

Funfact:

maybe starting from next week, you cant upload copyrighted videos anymore on youtube, you will be prevented from the new EU law from uploading copyrighted text, videos, pictures hell even memes

#

the cdu guy from germany (#yaygermanyagainduringwm) wants to legalize the internet, and so, you will be prevented from posting stuff, that already got posted and is under copyright ;D

congrats dude

visual crypt

im not even sure that after this law you will be able to post video material of the game anymore

digital timber
#

I'm not in the EU. I'm in the US.

visual crypt
#

it will change the whole platform, not just the EU site of it

digital timber
#

Ehhh. Maybe. But YT is based in the US. Until I hear it from my creator newsletter, it doesn't really effect me.

#

Not yet at least.

visual crypt
#

its jsut so shitty that it again happens during the world championship.... like 4 years ago, who would have thought

digital timber
#

What was the law?

#

I didn't really understand what you were saying.

visual crypt
#

upload filter prevents you from uploading copyrighted materials of all kinds

like the youtube content ID system, just before you are able to upload it to the paltform

digital timber
#

Oh God.... That'd be even worse.

#

Who is trying to implement that?

visual crypt
#

a CDU guy from my country (germany) in the EU parliment, next week

#

and as it looks atm he will get through with it since noone looks at it

digital timber
#

Well if your government is anything like ours, nothing will ever get done. Lol

#

I wouldnt worry about it to much.

#

It'd take a huge infrastructure to make that happen.

#

Millions on a site and all.

visual crypt
#

our government gets things done, sadly only the wrong things

#

and that usually quite fast

i just hope that there will be the woman who last time protected the net neutrality....she was a hero noone knows of xwx because last time the EU tried the same as the FCC, got through wit it, but she put it to a halt because of multiple laws that interfered

@weak charm didn't that EC video get torn apart by several sources as citing some unnecessary costs as essential or something?

weak charm

It might have been, but the principle of it is the same, people think that 10 people can make quality games and they don't understand why they cost so much. even half of the money stated in that video is still a hell of a lot to cover over for

eternal current

not to say that game development is cheap or easy, just that I think I saw several sources pointing out that their arguments where not entirely truthful for the sake of pushing loot boxes as acceptable

weak charm
#

Some people also don't understand that it actually takes time to make a game, its not a magic button which you press and games just rolls out

#

Thats the previous video on the topic

#

The first one they made in that case

#

This is the second one

#

Maybe this one?

eternal current
#

yeah but it was basically just a 2 part video on "why you shouldn't be angry at EA for using exploitative techniques" If I recall, and I think I saw some suggestions that they might have been paid, Ill go do some research

weak charm
#

People also see game dev mostly as a hobby without realizing that its also a 08-16 job for a lot of people, its their actual workplace, its not something they do when they get home to their wife and kids. Sure, some people do games as jobs and have side projects at the side, but it doesn't mean that everyone does.

Thanks @eternal current

Games don't cost $60 USD here

#

They cost upwards over $70 usd

eternal current
#

80 - 90$ cad for me

Yay island tax

#

I'm not saying we should accept microtransactions or any other sketchy schemes, but the principle is the same, even without all the microtransactions, it costs time and money and a hell of a lot people to make AAA titles

uncut cypress
#

$100 is a lot for a game

#

microtransactions are fine if it's only cosmetic changes

#

The advantage games have is that they are free to reproduce once created

weak charm
#

73.6$ here is normal for blockbuster titles

eternal current
#

well compared to usd Its actually not too bad

gritty hazel
#

You can sell a billion million games as long as you've made it once

#

i don't like the concept of microtransactions being fine if they are only cosmetic, because it is still locking away content behind a pricetag

eternal current
#

I genuinely don't mind cosmetic microtransactions, I just hate lootboxes

feral shard
#

even if it is cosmetic, it is still content that i would not be able to obtain without paying money that i already used to buy the game in the first place

wheat bough
#

look at TF2 or cs:go. You can buy skins for your weapons or your character, but that doesn't give you any advantage whatsoever

eternal current
#

even small gameplay advantages are okay if done tastefully

#

just dont make it gambling

weak charm
#

I also don't mind cosmetic items

#

CS:GO though made the misatke of allowing the skins to become tradable for real life money and Bet sites resulted...

wheat bough
#

what do you mean

#

Valve never allowed any skin to be sold for "real money". Only steam wallet funds

feral shard
#

I just don't like how its become appropriate for full $60 games to have cosmetic microtransactions.

weak charm
#

I can see that Peachie

#

Especially if they don't come with cool skins to begin with

wheat bough
#

that is somewhat true though.

weak charm
#

I see your point, but like Wildlands, you could order the deluxed premium super duper crazy edition or whatever and get some extra items

wheat bough
#

I was thinking of games like TF cs or even payday. (games that are 20 dollars at most)

weak charm
#

Which is fine

#

But it also shipped with a lot of cool stock skins

#

For all the weapons

quartz narwhal
#

CSGO skins were waged on in various shaddy sites and there was a real life monetary element to it. It was a great controversy with some YouTube channels being run by the people running the "casino" like betting CSGO skin sites as well and faking how easy it was to get super rare skins

weak charm
#

In those cases, I don't mind

eternal current
#

as long as the game offers a way to get what you want by playing, I don't mind even full games having cosmetic microtransactions

weak charm
#

Does LOL still offer you to buy skins and stuff for in game currency?

eternal current
#

yes... Kinda

#

LOL has an in game lootbox system for skins

weak charm
#

So like, halfway between the two?

eternal current
#

then once you get a skin out of a lootbox you can use it for three days for free, buy it permanently for orange essence, or "disenchant" it into orange essence

#

you can also just buy whatever you want with RP still

#

RP being the premium currency

weak charm
#

Money for RP?

eternal current
#

yes

weak charm
#

How do you get Orange essence or "disenchant" ?

eternal current
#

select the skin shard, right click, convert to essence

#

or something similarly easy

#

I haven't done it enough to remember perfectly off the top of my head

weak charm
#

Ahh

#

I see

uncut hearth
#

a nice middle point is in-game tradable paid money that mostly effects convenience and cosmetics
but that has its own set of issues

eternal current
#

@weak charm So I did some google - ing, and while I couldn't find much in the way of specifics, Most accounts seem to agree that while cost of development has gone up (for triple A games) the profit has also increased at roughly the same ratio.

weak charm
#

Thanks for the research, it makes sense as you say it, since more and more people play games which means more profit. But my original intension was to show that games are not made over 10, 100 or even 10000$ and they take time, and its a lot of work.

#

People seem to be very ignorant towards the game industry, with a lot of "experts" claiming that things are easily implemented, changed or fixed

#

Self proclaimed experts that is

the only time it's easy to change something in a program is before you start coding
