50 DUPES on Startup!? 

Thank you Echo for the great challenge! I did enjoy the adventure.

Right?!?

Thank you :). You learn a few tricks here and there with time. The 100 Dupe challenge (unreleased) is still utterly ridiculously hard.

@@Luma_plays 100 DUPES? 10 dupes is hard enough but 100 sounds crazy hard, good luck to you!

Cycle 1-3 seem to be most important for surviving the first 15 cycles.

I will probably try the start with 100 dupes challenge which is the real endboss regaring difficulty :D

I think i tried that once and it ended quickly xD

hoooooo! Mighty LAAAAAAAAAGGGGG 😆

true most the panic attacks got cut short :D But it was also easy for most of the parts (cause when you do food early it will be fine) and then it got hard for almost no reason, mostly cause I delayed oxygen for too long :D if I fo the 100 challenge it will probably more devastating. and thanks to your comment I try to keep more panic in the video 😁 (if I do that challenge)

Glad you liked it :)

Feral you somewhat slided into the cooking role xD

yo thats my handle

A bit of training and you get there :). As for the gsme terms. They come with time. U also didn't know what a SPOM (self powered oxygen module/maschine) was until i researched. The Hydra was more complex. I came up with an electolyzer design and found out that is has been in the gsme for years. But noone seemed to use the name. Since then i try to bring the name of the creation (the original person gave his setup) back to mainstream. Thank you alot for the comment. :)

Oh yeah i would want to see that!

I do what i can

:)

That is the great thing about this game. There is no one right way of doing things. There are a lot of good ways and a few unorthodox ways, but as long as you can play and have fun all of those are legit.

@@Luma_plays I want to see the most unorthodox way possible 😂

Oh that's nice. Glad you can enjoy it. This organized setup was the only way for me to properly count what we need. For the 100 challenge more training on my side is needed.

Good point. i could safe time by just connecting a few great halls!

Hehe; I think Echo made it harder on himself by trying to stick to the standard 4 high rooms.

That is partly correct. The toilets will work the question is is it worth the extra time spend making schedules. Mess tables on the other hand are not public buildings. like beds. they are only assigned to new dupes when 1 dies. I still appreciate the tip :) thanks alot. Maybe the extra time might pay off.

That probably would have happened if it would have cooled properly. I did not think of that at that moment.

Yes i should have started the electrolyzer setup sooo much earlier. If you do the challenge keep that in mind :D I though water might be an issue if i start it too soon. There were also quite a few dupes starving even though the food was fine. To much debuffs and Animations that slow the dupes down. Wet, coughing, irritated eyes, and so on.

Don't tell them my crimes against dupe kind ;D

I did try out the start with 100 Dupes Challenge. There might be a possibility there. 500 is out of the question, though.

Thank you!

Take your time. I was over a month late to Echos challenge :D I will be enjoying seeing you do the challenge (whenever it is ready). It is a fun challenge that somewhat helps getting better at the game.

That is because you helped out :D.

As long as you have fun it doesn't matter if you play slower or screw up once in a while. :)

@@Luma_plays thanks for the encouragement!

He would . This is too easy for him :D

Glad you had fun :)

Thank you :)

I would want to see that as well. But it is probably to easy for him.

Hey hey! You are first to comment! :D Thanks for beeing here.

Try it a few times. Failing can also be fun. And is inevitable in this game :D

Hello. Sure glad to help a fellow youtube person out :D The voice over is done afterwards. I don't take physical notes; I play and plan in my head what would make a good scene. Normally i also don't record everything in a single video but make alot of video- snippets. Only recording the relevant parts. A Let's play episode consists out of around 200-300 videos This video is different since i did not know what would happen so i had to record everything. In a let's play i have some fixed camera angles so i can follow my different projects. Sorting them in redordings folders helps tremendously later when editing. I never used scripts except in the current exploit-#shorts series which helped prepare the voice lines before recording the video snippets. Normally i "wing it" but with most of my ideas i had while recording/playing still in mind. Sometimes i cut large potions and make them more compact. Sometimes i need to fix things i was to sloppy by slowing down the video and explain more. I developed this method of recording style because i don't like to talk and rerecord while playing. I also have a highly different voice depending on the time of day so when i need 3-7 days of recording for 1 Let's play episode the voice lines sound pretty different. Also, english is not my first language and i need to check the words i actually want to use not the caveman words i can come up with on the spot :D I have started with voice over, switched to real time recording and then back to voice over with the occasional real-time part. As you see i am not consistent and just see what i feel like. I will do live recordings again just to train myself. Hope that helped

@@Luma_plays Thanks for the reply! Did you find that certain styles of recording did better than others? I assume the voice-over edited-down videos do a whole lot better in terms of views and comments. I'm also not english so when I made these videos "real-time" I was often struggling to find the right words, which seems to be very similar what you describe as "caveman words i come up with" hah. I also found the "my voice is different per time of day" thing for myself. When I record late at night (which is often my only possibility as someone with a job and a kid) I usually sound a lot more tired and boring. I was thinking to use an AI voice since it would be so much easier and faster, but AI voices are also pretty lame. I also considered actually hiring someone for doing the voice-overs and editing (editing and recording myself takes a lot of time; if I work that time, I could hire someone else to do it for less) Anyway, thanks for the reply, good luck on your future videos!

Hey gamebuster here my long answer. Disclaimer: Everything written here is no real advice just some experiences shared. In the long run the Edited gameplay seems to do better. But not linearly with the effort that is needed for them. You will need to decide that on your own. BUT check the bigger youtubers and see if you can find alot that don't edit their gameplay. Except Grind this game, Francis John and Nathan's sandbox I can't seem to find any in other niches. Markiplier has a mixture of unedited but still highly edited content. Some Audiences like the chill natural feel of a live recording. Others (myself included) think most of these are not worth my time, if they don't at least put in a bit effort with the cuts. I do watch some live gamers though. Echos VODs are fun Ryukahr and so on. "I also found the "my voice is different per time of day" thing for myself. When I record late at night (which is often my only possibility as someone with a job and a kid) I usually sound a lot more tired and boring" --> I did not mean the energy level. That is depending on how you are "willing" to change your mood, hype yourself up or just stay calm and go with it. I actually meant the voice frequency. Like the deep morning voice or growly night voice. At day time my voice can be multiple Hz different. Check my "Rooms expanded Mod" video compared to other vids. Then you can imagine what i mean. Regarding the AI voices. I don't have much experience from a creator perspective. Here is my viewer perspective: I only ever found 1 channel that had an acceptible AI voice and that was a channel about AI's; so it fit. As soon as i personally hear an AI voice i leave the channel forever, BUT the same goes for bad not understandable english (i do listen to foreign english speakers of cause, also accents are of cause fine but if I can't understand them without subtitle i also leave) A nice accent can be charming as long as you can understand what is said. Around 89% use no subtitle on my own videos 3% do (no clue where the rest of the percentages are RU-vid..) The 3% that do don't stick around for long.. "editing and recording myself takes a lot of time; if I work that time, I could hire someone else to do it for less)" Not sure how it is in the place you live but if i would hire someone for the hours i need to edit / Voice / Thumbnail creation / upload / descriptions etc. Depending on the quality or quantity of the videos you want to produce you would need to pay someone full time to make that. If that is an option for you that is cool. The real civil engineer is an example for that ("that" being letting someone else handle the editing) and he quickly rose to succes with his presentations style. But editors aren't and shouldn't be cheap. (maybe if you are succesful you can revenue share.) I have no clue i do that on my own :D so you better research that matter a bit more and make an informed decision. Have a nice day! Everything written here is no real advice just some experiences shared.

@@gamebuster800 I also checked out your Timberborn Hard 5 video quickly and your voice seems totally fine and nice. If you do a voice over and edit it to a short video you can make it a more dense and exiting video. It is also easier to come up with voice lines if you are not pressured by the moment. Just my thoughs. Other people might like this style more. Have fun on your endeavour.

Lol would love to see that

Working on it ;)

Thank you :D

I am :) BierTier and I got to know each other through a video. Now we share statistics and such once in a while. Same goes for Echo. We are a friendly community!

Gotta hook the people :)

Nah; It is the failure that taught me one or two things. Start with food early :D

@@Luma_plays yea ur ryt ur bad lolol jk the race for calories was a trap!

Thanks alot :)

It is a bit overwhelming at first (mostly the controls though), but always fun watching the dupes the first time. Thanks for the suggestion. :D

That would be super bad luck. And basically the same as 100 Dupes but with less availible workpower. How cruel xD

You are awesome for beeing here :)

The way i build it with no spacing didn't allow that. And i tried it that way cause: not really sure. Wrong judgement. in the 100 dupes challenge (unreleased) i used a hydra setup which worked nice but cooks the base.

@@Luma_plays oh awesome!!! I'm eagerly anticipating 100 dupes release!!

Cots are not shared as toilets are. I would need to unassign them manually. As far as i learned.

Thank you!!

Appreciated!

Oh no what happened. Did at least a single Meep survive?

@@Luma_plays a meep was not harmed. My issue I was having with food

Hey thanks for the suggestion I am not sure what you mean though. I would say Yes for the hydrogen; No because we have 5kg/s oxygen that can't be transported in a single pipe. It would be cool though if you can explain it I will try it out. I wouldn't know how to get all those pipes to a single mechanical filter for the check for hydrogen. :/

@@UTElistan Thanks I will check it out !!

When the oxygen ran dry I struggled a lot :D but in this challenge it is hard to see cause either at least 20 dupes die at once or none. So as soon as you save the situation with algae or at least a bit oxygen. then all survive. If they waste time catching breath they might starve though. so sometimes more micro managing helps. like closing the great halls when they drop too much food. I tried recording the struggles but they were mostly solved in a cycle.

Hey enryuu you already said it 05:39 you can see the mop command underwater. If there is only a bit of other liquid you can mop liquids in liquids. weird - yes - still works. Also, the video is not 100% chronological. sometimes i switched a few seconds to emphasise a dupe peeing or almost starving; even though it happened a few seconds ago where i showed something else already at the same time. Thanks for the keen eye :D

Nice Choice!

Naah das bildest du dir ein xD. Kann nur Englisch.

I directly jumped to the 100/100 challenge last november to december. But i am still editing it.

@@Luma_plays Oh, thats exciting! I suppose Ill need to subscribe to guarantee it pops up when you're done. Thanks for the heads up Luma!

@@pyroman7196 sure that would be appreciated. :) But even then youtube doesn't necessary show it. I haven't figured out why. Will probably release it in a week or 2

​@@Luma_plays Well then, I look forward to seeing it whenever it pops up for me 😁

I split the wires in different parts and have the grids seperated. I also don't have everything on the wires activated at the same time. And i think there was some are i might have missed it and the cable broke not sure. It was a long recording.

Hey Hort, I am not sure what you mean: I can help you if you tell me what is new to you :)? And yes there have been a few updates but i don't know which is the last one you know of.

@@Luma_plays hi Luma, For example, I only have the research colors blue, red and yellow. yours is also orange.

@@hort_marcoxd3751 Ah this. I do have the DLC installed. For this challenge it makes no difference. The DLC has 1 more recreational building on a different planet more critter and other rockets and research. But also a few more problems like radiation (you might have seen a glowing duplicant)

@@Luma_plays Oh OK, thank you very much for your explanation

He already did it (6 parts). Link is in the Description

I tried to have youtube auto translate the video. I is probably not correct but you can try an watch it :)

Yeah I just hoped that reloading it would stop the immediate influence of the "spawning" dev mode. Like the potentially sligtly changed care packages. I never deactivate it completely (change the original file back) since i use the 10x speed from the dev mode and not the speed mod.

If you watch to the end you see that i did play until cycle 51 just to be sure. (I also did not not what was intended until 50 or 50 included) But i checked and echo also played until 50 if i am not wrong.

lol xD

Hey Kenny Carter did you like it? The 100 dupe challenge is really risky you are always on the edge of loosing half your dupes. But 50 dupes works pretty nicely. Even though this try wasn't the cleanest.

@@Luma_plays i do wonder how doing many..... with so many dupes you can mine out the whole asteriod in one cycle. that be hilarious. on thr plus side you can use sandbox mode to paint enough oxygen around or even a tone of oxylite to avoid oxygen issues...

Jimena Contreras from the youtube audio libraby

@@Luma_plays there was some music from the Trailers of Oxygen Not Included also great video!

I recorded the 100 Dupe version. it is just hard to edit

@@Luma_plays well, ain't that a suprise. Show me what u got

50 at startup.

@@Luma_plays i mean as a new challenge, every day you get a new dupe, start 1 day 1, 2 day 2. etc. :o

Ohh; and then see how far i can get? Or what would the goal be? Cool idea by the way. I think getting to cycle 50 would be very easy. So maybe stop when the first dupe dies?

@@Luma_plays that could be a fair idea, hopefully its something fun to try and great videos ^^

🤔yes? :D

This video and the 100/100 challenge should have Portuguese subtitles. Or do you mean other videos? :)

Mopped ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-djhqIPjKujc.html and really easy to get rid of with the pitche pumps. They let you use the polluted water (everything that touches the straw thingy is availible for bottling). The bottles are dropped in direction of the fungus
