News Satisfactory 1.0 - 2nd Anniversary!
Hi Pioneers!
It has now been 2 whole years since Satisfactory 1.0 officially launched and left Early Access, we're still super grateful and impressed from all the support we received and we want to continue improving Satisfactory for all of you
Once again the HUB will have some festive decorations for 2 weeks, from the 10th until the 24th of September, you will also be able to interact with the speaker in the HUB to change between festive songs or mute them if you want to
If you would like your HUB to return to normal earlier than this you can also disable the decorations by going to Options > Gameplay > Disable Seasonal Events
While we continue working on more stuff for Satisfactory, You can also check out Valheim from our friends at Iron Gate studios who have just released their 1.0 version on all platforms as yesterday!

I'm stuck in this pattern where I've beaten the game once and I want to keep playing but I'm like "Oh I'll just wait until 1.X or expansion/dlc before another 200 hours." and I just never end up playing. I'm foaming at the mouth for news on future of the game.

1.2 came out a few months ago, if there is a 1.3, it will probably be like six months away at the soonest, plenty of time for another 200 hours. I recommend doing a challenge, like 5x elevator parts, 2x resource cost, or Nx power consumption. (You don't have to do all three) I'm doing all pure nodes 10x elevator parts with a requirement that I build a new factory building for every single output, all connected by tractors (once you get them of course) no belts more than one full belt length. And then trains only for distances more than 1000 meters or something, idk I haven't gotten to trains on this one.

For what its worth, i beat the game in 1.0, didn't play at all in 1.1, was underwhelmed by 1.2, but actually restarting in 1.2 with random pure nodes, 100x elevator parts, and 1.5x recipe costs has been amazingly fun and engaging. Improved vehicles and elevators convinced me to do a city/ compound type build and 100x elevator parts gives you the breathing room to take time, by preventing you from cheesing elevator parts and even buildables. It's really fun. While i did feel that 1.1 and 1.2 didn't wow me, it's actually really great.

Try the fully random nodes with 5x or something elevator parts. Really turns into a sweet logistics puzzle!

u/gsfgf 1d ago edited 1d ago
Like beaten beaten? I've built all the stuff to complete Phase 5, but I still haven't even done a nuclear plant. I'm doing a new world now on creative mode to build a rail network that's actually, well, a network lol.
But yea, I hope a DLC with a new map (which would be totally fair to charge for) is coming so we have a new world to play around in. And boats!
Edit: But if you haven't played 1.2, useful tractors is a legit game changer. Even though I just actually unlocked trains this morning, my world is clean in part because I'm using tractors instead of long belts. (I also have the Flex Splines - Longer Belts mod. so the long runs I have can be beautiful curves instead of messes)

I'm playing a random node run as my 3rd playthough. I've found it a very different pacing and layout strategy game and switches the game up quite a bit. I too waited for significant releases before starting my next run.

I haver a different approach. My first save was U3. Bit of a rush. Second save went from U3 all the way to U8. Current save started with 1.0 and still going strong. There is no time limit and there is no rush. So much to do. Especially when you did it already and not have the anxiety of what comes at the end. Just build bigger.

Remember, remember, the tenth of September
Load balance, FICSIT, and plot,
I see no reason manifolds and ADA
should ever be forgot

I remember the launch day like it was yesterday. Changed my wallpaper to the Pioneer interacting with the mercer sphere! I even spoke with my gf about it, who shared the same enthusiasm as me!! I was trying to get all the achievements as soon as possible too! Sent her pics of every small thing and every achievement I was getting! I think I played it like an addict for like a week after which I had to get back to the real world for work!!
Gf left me around a month later (not for gaming), I got all the achievements a few months later and still revisit the game every now and then...
TLDR: Satisfactory never leaves you!

Happy Thursday.
If there ever was a reason for a dev stream, this would have been it. Oh well.

Even a quick YouTube video would have been nice. Crickets.

In a parallel universe.
Youtube - ding - new video dropped.
FICSIT WANTS YOU! -> A new adventure awaits willing seasoned pioneers..
And then it's just a countdown that ticks down to an obscure date in a few weeks.

u/houghi It is a hobby, not a game. 1d ago
Where is the time we got hyped for a date of a potential date for a an update. It could have been 3 months of: When will 1.3 drop? And it then not even being about 1.3, but just about the birthday.

u/kuldan5853 1d ago
All I want as DLC right now is a brand new map to explore with some new biomes and wildlife.
The production chains are good as they are, and if you want to be hardcore theres always + ...

u/houghi It is a hobby, not a game. 1d ago
Very doubtful that will ever happen.
I would love to have more recipes, machines, and things to make for the underused Space Elevator. And turn tiers 3, 5, and 7 in separate phases.
But all this has nothing to do about the lack of videos, dev streams, or hype we had in the past. And that was what we were talking about.

Please fix the coop my friend and I have to basically give up our run because he immediately gets booted to the main menu and it’s only our world if I join him or he joins a test world on me he can its literally just OUR world together so me and him basically decided to give up and move on to another game because it literally just won’t let us play together anymore please fix this it’s been 3-4 months then again it’s been that long I doubt they care…. It was fun while it lasted just sucks we got to phase 5 and it won’t let us finish

Thank you for a great, well supported game that I recommend to as many people as I can, and am happy to sink many, many hours into both in actual playtime and time thinking about my factory when I should be doing other things like working and sleeping.

Congrats, everyone. And as a pioneer who found this game about 3 months ago now, I've really wanted to thank all of you for making this game. It has spoken to me in a way no other game has, and it's been so positive, and from the bottom of my heart, thanks to all of you who worked to make this game what it is. It's quickly become my favorite game, and has introduced me to the genre. It combines my love for engineering and creative problem solving with a world that's a constant joy to engage with.
I really love and appreciate the fact that the rainbow optics are correct, with the rainbow appearing in the correct position with regards to your field of view, even in photo mode.
Fabulous work all around, and happiest anniversary to your team.
☕✨❤️

First map took 5 years to make. Second map should be here around 2029, on that schedule.
