Warpzone 4: Intentional Game Design... // How Many WARPS to Beat WARPTORIO? 

"Wake up 'insert name here' that guy with the calm and soothing voice just posted a new video"

Loving the lil editing bits you do on this one! I don't know why the 'factorio but only when I'm walking' bit made me chuckle so much but 😂😂😂😂

"only the frames where I'm walking" is the best building montage I've ever seen 21:45

17:13 in the biz we call that foreshadowing

The crisp "next time" got me good this time. I wasn't expecting it at all, the video went by in a flash and I thought you were like 3/4ths in or even 1/2 through, but nooo. You make these VERY enganing, and I love them.

The smelter lines remind me of your ribbon world playthrough!! Love the creativity and content. Glad you left up your old videos! Currently watching your HOMM playthrough hehehe

I'm really looking forward to finding out How Many Vahrghps.

this is one of the most refreshing factorio runs ive seen for ages

From DoshDoshington to Ryan Brown. I love all factorio content. But your style is my favorite. Your editing fits so well with the games atmosphere.

My favorite Factorio youtuber ♥

Thank you so very much for this series!

the only flaw of this channel is that I want more of it :( Amazing episode as always and your neat blue prints makes me jealous compared to my "f*ck it we ball" approach at the warptorio challenge x)

You inspired me to start a warptorio run :) It has taken me about 17 warps to accomplish what you have in 4 :(

the editing is nice,the video is great, but i was expecting the full warp zone to happen :/

I am loving this series! Thank you for this 😊

Whispers: “could have used a splitter to change the belt side of the iron output and maintained the inserter pattern.”

About that smelting. It's possible to fit 1 ore + 1 plates + 0.5 coal on 2 belts. Using wood poles and with pipes to. Think dynamic ;)

Man your editing is amazing.I caught you speeding past some of your descriptions of the base I thought I accidentally set my video speed to 1.75 :D.I actually really love your demonstrations and some simpler explanations.

Love Warptorio, love that you play warptorio, and also loved the idea at the end... only frames where you walked :)

hmm i always swore that steel furnaces consumed as much energy as stone in terms of energy per item. guess i never had a base big enough to notice the lessening of coal demand.

A much more... calm episode this time. Thanks for the episode! See you next week

Holländer, we need more episodes and that faster pls. Your show is so entertaining dude.

i watched your 1000 days factorio vid in 3 days + final and i love your edit style, good job!!!

Next series: can you beat warptorio in the ultimate death world with smart biter evolution?

18:49 You could replace the tree tile wide belt switcheridoo with a splitter set with output prioriti to the right and squeze it into two tiles, therefore the OCD crowd will be happy

Im hooked, been waiting all week for this episode, now i have to wait more for the next one.

This kind of madness is soothing my poor soul trying to finish my 10x science cost space exploration playthrough

it would appear that, once again, I will be staying up a bit longer.

Absolutely loving this. Looking forward to each episode

As always, excellent work, looking forward to the next video!

I appreciate you speeding up the in-depth explanation bits, as to not make it too boring for some people. Personally I'm interested in them but find it hard to follow along with the increased speed. I'd prefer it if you kept it at the same speed and instead just implemented timestamps so people can skip it if they don't care. Great video as always though! It's fun trying to puzzle what you're gonna do next episode.

I like your videos. I gave Warptorio a try after watching the first 3. Lots of fun but I screwed up all my floors.

Best feeling finishing work on a Friday and seeing another episode to watch

12:59 satisfaction denied!

Love the camera effects!

Wonderful!

I don't know how you do it man. It feels like I've only just started watching and then *poof* 20 minutes have passed and the episode is already over!

Since stone is 2 raw for 1 cooked, the usual burner setup is 2 burner miners for 1 furnace ;)

Pfoe that ending was killer. Love your vids

This is so cool and interesting to watch ❤

Wow! 3 whole chests made of iron!

Thanks for the series, nice to see the warp base is up and running, and looking forward to the next episode! (answered) -I have a question - at --18:10-- there is one turret placed at the end of the warp furnace floor. Why is that, can the biters come inside through the resource teleporter? It just seemed a little out of place so I was a bit curious!-

Okay, now I can’t wait to see the next episode.

18:30. I saw the pattern discrepancy. There is a solution. You can make a 2 tile long switcher instead of 3 using a Filtered splitter. Set the filter so something you won't mine (like fish), so everything is forced up. Then immediately turn it down to side load back onto the main line.

Factorio generates much fancy obstacles.

Thanks for your great series of this warpmadness c:

Dear Michael, you know you can drag belts and they will automatically add underground belts where needed, right? Unless this mod forces use of an older version of course. It is just quite painful to watch you slowly build the belt at 22:13, always switching between normal and underground belts.

Wow you should totally post the blueprint book from this series! would help me heaps in my own run

"Factorio, but only the parts where I'm walking." So, walktorio?

loving this series ( i think i say that about every one, but still!)

I tune in to this series like it's 1999 and im gonna miss it if im not there at 3am on friday

This mod isn't my cup of tea but at least it's original with it's difficulty. Two overhaul mods come to mind and they just look torture to me lol

It was too short of an adventure! :D

love your designs in this episode, this is picking up to be really cool now

I'm loving the series man keep it up!

love your video once again Mr. Hendriks , how i wish for you to crank it out , i do understand mortal limitations XD but man i love this series ! ! Once again a stellar video ! Can't wait to uncover more of your adventure ... Next time ...

The words that’ll haunt my dreams: *Next Time!*

Time sure flies when watching your videos...

now we need space exploration + warptorio. if its possible

Great as always! Comment for support! :)

Heh, I'm a lot further in than you are, and I'm still using the boiler floor for science :D The boiler floor grows a lot faster and more conveniently than the factory floor; not to mention I'm still using the factory floor for all sorts of junk like backup resources, backup smelters etc :D Though now that I have the factory floor beacon, I should probably move everything to the factory floor. It's crazy you're only now switching to electric miners :D Yeah, burners are simple and handy, but managing the coal takes so much time (and annoyance :D)... I'm no stranger to burner bases in more burner-oriented mod(pack)s (hello, Py Alternative Energy :D), but not being able to at least automate the coal delivery is so much pain. You end up running around putting coal in machines way too much. Though granted, with the biters in this mod, you still tend to run around a lot just filling the turrets :P Also, you have probably noticed this a long time ago by now, but when you upgrade logistics, one of your miners on the harvest platform is going to be lost. I love how cramped the platform is, though, with maximum miners put :D I tend to put most of my defences on the platform, since it's quite a bit more painful to lose a turret full of ammo than a few miners. I tend to put a lot more miners outside the platform too. Are you doing an ore buffer later on, or are you always just putting everything straight into the furnaces? I guess a buffer will not work very well if you intend to use the platform for mining coal as well :D I usually use the teleporter for that (and oil; weaving that through the harvester floor is really annoying, though I see you took the effort to do that :D ), as long as the main platform is still defensible. You might also want to do a quick research on the "defence castles". They're not very useful right now, but provide quite a bit of extra space on the factory floor (though not covered by the beacon... for a while). I'm loving this series, great job ;)

Hell yeah

I don't know anything about this mod but what happens when you run low on water are you going to have to hook back up outside

Dude i could watch your vids all day ❤

I'm really enjoying this series! I did notice one weird thing though - are you EQ'ing the master audio somewhere in your recording setup? Sounds like you've cranked the high frequency up a bit too much, making the click sounds from loading stuff into machines very sibilant and a little harsh. Might wanna tweak the high end down a touch, or add a de-esser plugin.

For furnace setup OCD, it is at least possible to make a repeating, symetrical pattern, which while not quite as good, is the best you can likely manage without red belts or a wider corridor. Blueprint should work at pastebin a1NxJFQ1

Out of curiosity why did you accelerate the explanation of the boiler floor ? If it is because maybe you thought it was too long and boring, well 1. it wasn't and 2. honestly the speedup is more headache inducing than the "long" explanation would have been 😕

good stuff :)

I like you dialect it sound very cool

why are you manually placing the underground belts here at 18:56? cant you just drag the belt along and have it automatically place those?

Love the series as usual :) I'm not sur to understand how the mod works : The blueprints are given with the mod or you did them on a first playthrough and reuse here ? I'd love to try the mod, and the fact that blueprints would already be designed is very attractive :D

🎉

awsome video as usual maybe you should stream on twitch more frequently

Let's go, whoo!

oh wow, didn't know you only had to fit 1 tile of a miner to the platform That would've been useful Do you plan on using the personal teleporter to hook up oil, or is teleporting way too useful to give up for some weird colored water? Also, thanks to this series, i started a warptorio run as well (but with the extension, and damn, the biters are ruthless there)

How did you create your blueprints for this Michael? Not being able to pause the simulation while using the factory floor planner mod (or whatever it is called) meant I was just doing it on the fly for my factory floors and it drove me a little crazy. I found once designing the new science pack production, it would become obsolete in less than an hour after you completed research to make the factory floor bigger!

Are the worlds you warp to random or did you load back when you got an unlucky something is missing world with a key resource missing? I imagine later on rerolling will be needed if you want that peaceful map to spend a lot of time before returning home but so far, any bad luck?

How do you place 1 ammo in the turrets by dragging the mouse?

yes

Do you publish the blueprints? To patreons?

Yeeeees

you still had 12 minutes left on this warpzone, how are you going to stick to the current naming scheme??

See yall in 2 days for the next episode~

I cannot lie, Regardless of what I'm doing, I stop to watch Michael Hendricks' video

yeeees!!!!

Gonk :]

Yippee new episode! 🎉🎉

i love your videos and this series is great but please can you make at least a longer video about 30 mins.

Does he ever explain why he doesn't put turrets on his surface factory? Popping out of the factory and being attacked every time would get really annoying to me.

why are you storing water instead of just storing the steam and only generating the steam when the platform is in the world with a water intake

17:50 are you afraight of east asian cuisine? (sushi)

my guy the harvester platform fits 16! miners not 15

Bread

It's actually hilarious how bad of a driver you are

Your not doing an episode per warp😢

Wish I could give you a thumbs up on all your videos instead of thumbs down…. But anyway…

Hi, I just wanted to say that your content is great, but the Factorio background music is far too loud. Not enough to not hear you, but it is a bit annoying and makes it hard to listen to in the background of me doing something else. Cheers!

Awwww... I was hoping you were going to keep up the pattern of one Warp per video, but this is a shorter video. =(
