STARTING WITH NOTHING | Banished #1 

Jack I LOVE this game and have put in a lot of time into it, with and without mods! Please, please, please make this a series! PS. Practice makes perfection, here are a few tips and hints to get ya started! 1. Don't be afraid to pause the game and think for a second. (Stuff happens fast and out of nowhere) 2. If the people have nothing to do they will harvest wood and stone you have selected and move it to building locations. 3. Your foresters lodge, hunting cabin, and gathers hut need to be away from you town. Build a road to them with a house and storage on it. Harvest all the stone in the foresters circle so they have more room for trees. 4. Build a trading post. Little ships will come in with items you can buy that make life nice. And that's where you get animals and seeds, also emergency food. 5. A Market isn't a top priority till later on. Only when you have multiple towns or a wide spread town.

Some basic tips: Make sure there are houses close to where people work, they actually have to walk to work every day Roads are very important and easy to make Go slow with placing houses its very easy to get over populated A trading post is the only place to get more seeds for growing Build a fairly large sized orchard early on, its low maintenance but takes several seasons to grow Do not place too many fishing huts in a small area, you can over fish and there wont be any left If you plant more than one farm, try to plant different stuff. Sometimes crops get hit by disease and die Animals pens are an easy way for food long term, but the only way to get animals for the pasture is by trading If and wanderers ever show up be careful, they can be carrying disease that will destroy your population FAST ****The reason the pasture isnt working is because you dont have any animals ***Tools are made at a black smith with iron and wood and if you dont have tools work speed cuts in half for everything This game is insanely fun and I hope you do more but remember to take it slow :D

1. you need to have livestock to use the pasture 2. you need to make tools 3. if limit reached set the Resource limit higher or assigne to other task else the worker will idle 4. grow crops. seed them in spring or they dont have enough time to grow 5. check the radius of buidings befor placing them for examle the hunter cabin 6. you dont need the marketplace yet or atleast dont assign so many people to it 7. please play all tutorials because this game gets difficult rather fast 8. if you fail start with large map its easyer over time if you dont have to worry about space 9. shuffle tasks arround how you need it, way more efficient 10. take your time dont rush the game, lost many games because I rush them :)

When jack said "look into my eyes" I felt very uncomfortable due to the fact I automatically looked him in the eye, but I was awkwardly trying to fix my nose piercing when he said that. So I felt like someone was just watching me being an idiot trying to fix my stud with with my finger in my nose. Great times that only I will remember.

"Cause my *blathers* frozen' "Is your tongue frozen too Jack?'

you need to make 1 house for 2 people because if there too many that means no banging and no kids so 1 house for 2 people like this so jack can get a head ups in this game.

This game is a good metaphor for RU-vid channels they start of small then some people help build it and help it grow. Then eventually it turns out to be huge and there's always room for growth.

16:20 The tree stood back up then fell over 😂

Hello Jack! Hopefully these tips help you as I have been playing for a while now! Please upvote this so he sees it! Thanks! - At the start of the game, it says you have 5 families. So, building 5 houses (or 6 if you want population growth early), works well. One female and one male, about ages 10 or older will get together in a new house and make their own family automatically, as long as a free house in available. -Click on the gear icon, then the arrow pointed upwards (without the horizontal line) and highlight something you'd like to get rushed and it will increase priority of that queued action. Be careful though, because if you don't have enough resources or people to do that job, it will be skipped and will only be tackled when the resources become available. -You can speed up time. I like 5X speed. You can also pause time with the spacebar. I like to pause the game and setup where I want all my basic buildings before I let the villagers loose to start the queue. -If you want to save space for a certain building, but don't have the resources currently, you can place the building, then click on the area the building will occupy. On the window that pops up, you'll see a yellow pause button. That will prevent that building from being put into queue to be done. Helps make plans in the early game so you don't accidentally build on a spot you had plans to put something else on. Unpause for it to be queued. -At the start of the game, you do NOT have animals to put into the pastures. You DO however have seeds for crop fields and orchards. You get livestock through the "Trading Post" (see below). -Build a "Trading Post" along a river. HAS to be a river, or a pond/lake with a river running in and out of it, in order to trade with a trader that comes by every so often. The trader brings seeds, animals and resources to your village in an attempt to bargain with you. You need to have surplus items to trade, so I recommend increasing the maximum gather amounts. The Gear Icon -> arrow with the horizontal line shows the current maximum amounts and you can adjust them there. Make sure you have a "Trader" and that you set the amount of surplus you want the trader to hold so you have stuff to trade. - This is something I have had some success with. Find a large patch of forest away from your village a bit and build a hunter's cabin, gatherer's hut, herbalist, forester's lodge, a storage barn and stock pile etc... in that cluster of forest, and don't build anything else inside the active radius (the yellow ring when you click or place a building). Deer, for example, don't go into the village very often, so having your hunter's cabin there is useless. Same with the Forester's lodge, when the point of the forester is to cut and plant trees in a sustainable manner. There's not much room in your village to grow and plant trees effectively. -Putting in 3 crop fields, sizes 10X10 or so at the start of the game is good. You'll get a great food growth so you don't run low. -You want a variety of food sources. In the general stats window, your villager's health is represented by the hearts. Having a wide variety of food and medicinal herbs helps keep your villagers healthy early on. Having a hospital also helps later in the game. -The villager happiness is also represented by the stars in the general stats window. Good tip, build an orchard early. Once the orchard starts producing something (usually 4 or 5 years later), build a brewer/tavern ( I forget the exact name right now) and you can use the items from the orchard to make beer/alcohol to make your villagers happy, if you find it hard to keep them happy. I usually don't have an issue with happiness early, but you might. That's all for now and will help get you started. If I think of any more from your later episodes, I'll post them in the comments! ;) Great work and enjoy!

Looked into your eyes and my heart skipped a beat like your eyes are so beautiful!😍

Shaun you can't do anything with the pasture yet because you don't have any animals, you get them through training, you do, however, have seeds so you can make some big crop fields. Also, you can move around the little windows wherever you want

you should try Stonehearth :P also a city building game

His entire town is going to die. All at once in a mass death. It's inevitable.

The best city-builder game ever made. And it was made by ONE guy.

I remember playing this game around when it came out and I absolutely loved it! But it can be very difficult and most of the time everyone died... Looking forward to seeing more! :D

No matter how much i love his messy creations in these games...he HAS to move that house or rotate idk if he has yet i have not seen ep 2, 3, or 4.

SPEEEEEDDDDDS ISSSS MOOOOTTTHHHAAAA FFUUUCCKCKIN KEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY

PETITION FOR HOMIE-O'S TO BE A REAL THING

I love Banished so much, such a chill atmosphere but a game that takes some practice balancing everything just right. Had a great time watching Jack set up the traditional first time player starvation spiral.

Jack's like "I like games like this" and I'm like who doesn't?? XD

I thought he said ghoul house and I was just like Kaneki where are you

I live in a place called Chilton County

finally a awsome youtuber plays banished

They Way to survive is to get allot of food before winter “example” building a (fishing dock, farm field, herbst House to collect plants and berries, etc. (build a mine) When you build a mine you Can get iron or coal. If you chose to build a mine you want it to get coal, to get coal for House Warming at winter. If you cant make a mine you Can make a log House to make logs into firewood (build a animal stock) if your lucky and get cows or sheep you Can make clothing with the leather or wool. (Allso yes my english is bad. And i have played the game but i dont remember all the names of the buildings. Hope you enjoy the tips and help have. a good Day :D)

Anyone notice the magical flying reindeer in the bottom right corner @ 12:57? I just found that to be funny :o

Jack! Why did you name it Chillton? You should of named it BOSSOTRONIA!!!

you should have named the town Bosston

Jack: ....Chillton, USA... Me: USA?!?... I mean Yay!... But seriously... Huh?

Jack, it looks like we are going to learn together

If your bladder is frozen, you can't "Let it go".

Omg, when he said the people are a little stupid, i spit pop all over my screen. I love this game. I'm in yr 497 and it's funny to watch new players.

Chilton is a city in and county seat of Calumet County in the U.S. state of Wisconsin. The population was 3,933 at the 2010 census. The city is located partially within the Town of Chilton. (Its a real place!)

16:53 JACK HEY JACK GIVE ME YOUR FUCKING EYES THEY'RE BEATUFUL AND I NEED THEM FOR MY COLLECTION

I miss the HAY MA jokes

Jack, just letting you know, THE REASON THE PASTURE ISN'T WORKING IS BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY ANIMALS IN IT!!!!!! I just thought I should let you know.

Mongolian Throat Singing LOL

thank you jack, I have been wanting you to play banished for ages, P.S. you deserve a diamond play button

>start the game up >finish the tutorial >spend 20+ hours building, gathering and trading shit >build a really big town >think you are doing really good >have all of your people die of old age because you didn't build enough houses for children >10/10

When you play a game then delete it........then you see a youtuber play the game You immediately download it again then complete the game again

JACK! You forget to water you're hair again!

Im a big fan of jack and i love when they say hwile

😂😂😂😂"People of chillton y'all...their a little fucking stupid but.... " 😂😂😂

15:39 that tree is me at christmas

Hes better than i have ever done in a year.

This guy is one of the only RU-vidrs I've seen that somehow managed to scream about wanting to 'relax and play a chill game'.

"They get confused with the killers all the time" "KILL THOSE ANIMALS" Well I think we know why they get confused

jack you're playing a calm, tranquil game but you're yelling half the time.

I love it when comments section is filled with people who try to help the content creator improve his/her content with advice and encouragement, rather than criticizing them and putting them down for mistakes.

Jack you DO realize that Chilton is an actual city right? In Wisconsin I live in Chilton. 😂😂😂

"Can't even piss cause my bladder is frozen" XD

Tips for Chillton's Overseer/Mayor/Hero/Boss: -In the gear/cog icon there is a priority button, it looks like an arrow. If you click with priority selected, the Chillers are more likely to do that task first. -A gather's hut is excellent for getting food early on. -You need animals before the Chillers can work at your pasture. You get animals by trading, which you need a trading post for. -You will want a hospital before your people get sick and die of Dysentery (or some other ailment). -Families live in houses, and families can grow to be up to five people. At the age of 10, children can move into a new house and start having their own children. If you find your houses have people older than 10, build some houses. -Keep an eye on your resources. If you run out of food or firewood, your people will die. If you lack iron, wood, or stone, they won't build anything. Just keep wrecking the environment and you'll be grand, at least for now! So excited to see you playing this game! I love your videos so much and Banished one of my favorite games!

Jack: I am one with nature Me: this is so calming My washing machine: brrrrrrrrbrfrrfrdrfdfrd Me: ARE YOU KIDDING ME

You could say the docks were very e-fish-ient. I'm sorry.

Jack. The hunting cabin should be far far into the forest because when the town expands the animals will not go into the range of the hunters in the hunting cabin.

Yo jack, if you like colony/town building games you should try rimworld

😂😂😂 "HOLY JESUS...AND his twelve Apostles "😂😂😂😂

Jack thank you so much for playing this game, its one of my personal favorites!! But here are some tips to playing better! - The reason why your men arent working the pasture is because you dont have any animal, to get animals you need to buy them from the annual trader after building the trading post, but pastures are more of a latter game trait because animals are expensive - Markets are useful, but overkill for a small town. they are easier to use with a population of 50-100+... the purpose of markets is to have a bunch of people deliver resources to people's houses so the people in those houses don't have to step away from their job to do it themselves - What I call the "Wilderness facilities" are Forestry lodge, gatherers hut, hunters cabin, and herbalist.. these 4 should be placed in a small square like area with trees filling up each of the facilities' radius, placing them close together will waste less forest space and maximize production - Always keep production limits raised, especially for the woodcutter because when winter comes around there will be a dramatic increase in firewood usage and will drain you out in a snap - BUILD A SCHOOL HOUSE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE: Sending kids to school will make them laborers at a later age, but they will know how to do things better and production rates will increase a ton!!! - One of the most important things is to watch out and prepare for baby boomers, if you notice a huge incline in population in a short period of time, then it will soon come back to bite you in the butt because those people will eventually die off with important jobs and there wont be enough people to fill in for them - Not too soon, but around at least 100 people have a Town Hall, it provides useful statistics that will help maintain the chillness of your town Overall you did a damn good job at starting out your village, and I hope these few tips will help you out in the long run... I have no idea if this will get to the top so please help me out get this to Jack's view!!!

*Food production is low* Jack: "Sooo, should I be making more food?" Yes Jack, use your god powers and summon the food.

are the kids of Chillton called Chilldren?

Mom: Are you hungry? Me: Hmm.... I would say I'm about 67% full

those people are chill but homeless

when you play a game..and then deleted it..and then you see jack play it.. you want to play the game again

Honestly, my advice is mainly to start over lol. Im not being mean but you rushed this quite a bit. I'll give you a few tips to keep you alive a bit longer, but your ganna have to do some damage control. 1. Get a school, the more educated, the more productivity 2. Dont build too many houses early on, those make babbies and that increases population wich leads to food and clothing problems. 3. There is a button to increase productivity rate in areas, it is an arrow shape and where the jobs assignments are. 4. Get a wood cutter, that will encourage people to get firewood to stay warm during winter, otherwise most wont think twice about it. 5. Move around the hunters cabin. Dear spawn in decent groups, so move the cabin around a bit to make sure they are within hunting rage. Not to mention they move. 6. Hire AT LEAST 2 - 3 farmers. Have at least one feild and one orchard (farmers manage both). Thats all i got for now, have fun!

Jack- can someone harvest that tree please? It's bothering me Me- oh that's what's bothering you all of your houses are facing different ways 😂

WAIT.....what if the people of Chillton will die of the Giggles?

i don't know for sure but i think the reason they can't work in the pasture is because you don't have live stock

Jack: says blather not bladder Nobody: Me: finally someone who speaks my language

*Such a peaceful game.. * *_Jack Screams Half Of The Time_* *GAHD DAMNIT JACK!*

14:40 That tree is so chill (cold) it can't stop shaking :P 16:09 RIC (rest in chillness), shaky tree =*

Call the people of chilton chiltren

Banished is difficult, a reliable source of food is pastures and farms, but you need seeds and livestock, to get these, if you don't start out with them you must build a trading post at the river. Also a blacksmith is essential as tools will eventually wear out and resource gathering will slow to a crawl. Building a school is also a good idea as uneducated citizens are only half as efficient at what they do. If you cannot procure seeds and livestock then your options are fishing, hunting and foraging; foraging requires a decent forest area.

I love these sort of games where you make your own cities, villages etc!! It's so frustrating though when you start a game and you don't know what to do but heck, that's the art of games!

Who else is watching this without socks on

"This is a cool, tranquil game." *Yells the whole video*

most RU-vidrs: Why can't I place the bridge here? Jack: Well FUCK YOU because I just did! most RU-vidrs: Ooh! Little trees! Jack: Tiny little baby trees! The size of giant mushrooms! Friend: This is why you- Me: THIS IS WHY I LOVE HIM.

GLORY TO ARSTOTZKA AND CHILLTON

From what I've seen in this game (I've played about 100 hours) You need to be careful with your resources. You need to build hunter cabins in the forests, not in the open field and not near mountains or water. Fishing docks (or what ever they were called) only next to water that is going down stream, basically: dock -> -> -> -> water if its going up stream it will work, but not so well. You need to make a lot of coats further in the game, which is made from leather, and that is gained from hunter cabins. The coats are what people wear so they don't freeze in the winter. I never grew animals, but I think its just another way of producing food, but that does use other materials I'm pretty sure. Iron and coal can be found in mines, but stone in quarries, atleast I think thats how it was. It should say that when you mouse over them. I hope this is really useful. I just want You to have fun in the game.

You should've named it Arstotzka.

nice jack had my name as a town

I've got a good feeling about this series! I think it's gonna be one of those really memorable ones!

Am I the only one still waiting for Jack to get a puppy?? That can't be right..
