so theoretically it's a good idea to have roughly double the output of raw material than of what you would need I guess, especially since ressources are finite and you'd kind of have to expand faster than you consume... makes me almost want to cheat for infinite ressourcs but I guess it's part of the game... I'll probably just go smaller in the future *cough* never gonna happen *cough*
@@nefrums4510 didn't watch the whole video so sorry if the question is redundant but is it mandatory to have randomized seed or could you learn a map/search for the "perfect" speedrun map?
@@nefrums4510 great content btw. I see the competition isn't that big yet in factorio and there is obviously a lot of space for improvement in a game like factorio, just checked the leader board and the difference between 1st and 10th place are huge I'm hoping to see some more it's actually something completely different than I'm used to from speedruns because usually in other games everything is 100% planned through and the randomness makes it way more interesting imo (although it's ofc a lot of luck involved too) good luck on reclaiming your title once again and sorry for the textwall :D
@@brohvakiindova4452 Thanks! I'll try to take back the any% title next week. Any% had set seed, so it require less adaptation. The Default settingd title is still safe. 🙂. Default settings is a lot harder, that is why there are less completion there. But if you show the obsolete runs on the leaderboard you will see that that WR changed back and forth between me and AntiElitz a few times.
Here I thought I knew the hotkeys after thousands of hours, but how are you inserting one coal at a time into burner miners and smelters at the start? Also how did you insert the 10 red science into the first lab?
Awesome play. Congrats. Unfortunately I joined the live stream just after you finished it :D Didn't expect the first play of the day to end so well :D 2:40 is definitively possible with minor improvements, and less mistakes here and there. 2:30 with a good map and some luck :D Happy holidays, and a break, to regain energy for a new year. ;D I think I will try my own DS run, maybe start at 5h target first ;D
I learned from this video, that in case of alien invasion, it's best to wildly throw hand grenades around you, even when you're at home professional military tactic
Edit: Removed original content due to inaccuracies, my apologies. There's been a lot of WR claims using some form of splicing or cheating and the video on my end evidently was blurring the count of the coal to look like 5s, it IS 1s.
@@kunrath Z drops 1 of an item. If you're over a container that can take the item it'll place one instead. Holding Z and moving the mouse back and forth over containers drops 1 each time the item under the cursor changes.
Hey Nefrums. Big congratulations on reclaiming the WR. Can i ask why you allow Anti to talk so much during your runs? Nothing personal, but surely, it must disturb the though process? God jul!
started to play factorio today, had a lot of trouble with those assembly lines.. because they got 2 sides.. but what is that thing with that Chest u drop down at the beginning of every new ass. line?
There is a setting where you can change the sprite resolution - otherwise check to see which version of the game you are running - he would have run this on 0.17.79, and I think I remember about 0.00.2 ago they made some of the sprites prettier.
May i ask for a guide/tutorial video ? Not just about speed running but also about ratios and how to not mess up the automation of a run in general. I am very new to this game and i love your content but i keep restarting my runs again and again every time i get confused and i don't know if there is a crafting tree in the game or not but damn it's hard to not over complicate anything even the beginning when you don't know much about the game.. Even ratios are hard to understand personally.
i like how i am still surprise by how crazy this game is.. Like i see him automating 3 Blue circuit factory and i am like yeah that's look like a lot of stuff.. And the he copy and make actually a million a blue circuit factory haha
Very possible with a good seed, a bit of biter luck, and less mistakes during the whole game. In ever 10 minute segment I can easily find 30-60 seconds that are somehow wasted. Even 2:20 should be possible, but that would require almost machine like execution and close to zero mistakes.
Uhh ingame it does read: 2 46 34 *generating the map should NOT count* ... from the moment you can MOVE YOUR CHARACTER to the MOMENT THE ROCKET FLIES... The *ingame counter* should be the measurement. Not how long you "idle" and skip trough extreme random map generation. That's like SuperMario speed runs count from the moment the console is turned on... or just having the Starscreen, but not yet having pressed Start... :I You really put your light under a highly efficient oven system ...
I find most interesting (for beginners) is 24:33 where you place the copper transport belts down in a precise way to exactly fit into the waiting line "production unit" green sience and gears - you should cover this placement(s) verbally when playing thought...
@Nefrums indeed, but viewers should be informed as this is a vital information. Without this clever placement at the beginning one is lost as he ends up in spaghetti at best.
He played this factory layout few houndreths of times on twitch and out of twitch. If you watch just few of his recordings or live streams, you will know it by heart too.
If by IGT you meant "in game timer", he explained in another comment that the rule for default settings speedrun is to include inspection time of the map while in the map generation screen. The in game timer only starts once you've actually started the map, so it can't be used for default settings speed run (at least not directly, if you used IGT, you'll need to somehow add the map preview time somehow). The any% speedrun usually used in game timer though, because that category allows you to prepick map seed and settings.
AND I DONT KNOW HOW TO USE CONVEYOR EFFECTIVELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM CURSED WITH NLY SEMI AUTO MACHINE THAT I HAVE TO STOCK MYSLEF AND I AM SUFFER ING
Whenever you have someone helping you in the background telling you where you messed up, imo it shouldn't count, that's external help and you wouldn't have gotten it if it werent' for other people. This is cheating.
Well, we are not that strict in the Factorio speedruning community, and as many of us stream it would be impossible to enforce that twitch chat don't help. That is why we have decided to allow it. Full rules can be found on speedrun.com/Factorio.
Except that thats bullshit, because he's already completed speedruns multiple times. On top of that there are many instances of speed runs where people have coaches or people cheering them on or just reminding them what the runner told them to remind them of. GDQ runners often use "the couch" as reminders ("Coming up next we'll be doing X trick" - this isn't just for the audience a lot of the time, its to keep it fresh in the runner's head because they have a LOT going on) and still get WR, so if that counts, so does whatever he did. By your logic, just using a split timer you could see also shouldn't count, and EVERY speed runner has something like this.
@@sirgouki6207 the amount of people assuming rules just because they feel like something is unfair/imbalanced is too damn high... also people complaining about bug abuses and glitches in any% runs are really annoying
