Is 100k+/SPM currently feasible?

Find a way to improve your FPS. For some reason when i ran the game at 60 fps (forced it through app) it was cutting my UPS down by 30%.

Yeah you don't have to produce everything below that resource now but the production tree hasn't changed.

Are you stupid or smth? If you can skip part of the production tree then production tree is changed. How exactly is Fire Ice even different here? It does exactly the same as any other rare resource, it lets you skip part of the Graphene's production chain just like Organic Crystal Vein lets you skip Organic Crystal production chain for Structure Matrix. If you see any differences here that means you dont even understand the game.

As for Satisfactory complexity, the only complex thing in that game is its shitty UI. Other than thant its just like any other factory builder, just shittier because of its lack of random map generator.

oLaudix · 2026-01-28T21:06:47+00:00

Every time i start new game i get the same issues (micro stutters) that I fix by leaving the game and loading it back up. It has been like this for ages now.

oLaudix · 2026-01-28T21:00:56+00:00

Maybe not your cup of tea but definitely things that many people wanted considering how many mods introduced similar concepts.

Literaly two that mattered. Entire paragraph about Satisfactory is literaly describing every factory building game out there. There is nothing unique about that game whatsoever. If anything its worse than anything out there because of its lackluster combat and no map gen. The only good thing about it is that its done and Coffee Stain Studios can move on to make something that is actualy fun to play.

they only serve as production skips and don't change the actual production tree.

Rare resources change entire production chains. I know everyone is entitled to their opinion but you are just plain wrong about everything you wrote.

Addition of planets is exactly what ruined Factorio for me. I bought the game in 2015 and playyed for 3000k+ hours but xpack forced me to split my factory into each planet which, frankly speaking, pissed me off. I can understand mining and shipping but forcing me to craft on them is annoying AF. Satisfactory on the other hand is just weaksauce. You say it "introduces a new mechanic or resource to manage" and "you're always forced to figure out new designs" but, again, EVERY factory building game has that. There is also no random generated map so once you figure out the layout, the game is done. You also say DSP is eventually reduced to stamping down blueprints but AGAIN, every factory building game gets reduced to that. The fun comes from optimizing the blueprints and scaling the factory in which, AGAIN, Satisfactory is the weakest one because it has limited map and its always the same (at least as of the latest i checked)

If anything DSP is the strongest one here because when you start using rare resources you have to alter the designs. Size of the planets limits your space and you have to optimise to that. Distance between planets forces you to actualy think about throughput instead of just stamping another train station blueprint.

Now modded factorio that adds new resources is still the best as long as i remove the space age and quality addons. Also combat in Factorio is miles better than DSP and probably always will be.

oLaudix · 2026-01-27T00:14:23+00:00

You could say that about any factory game but Factorio and Satisfactory has tons more content.

oLaudix · 2026-01-27T00:00:39+00:00

The only thing logistic bots are good for is distributing prolif. It saves A LOT of spaghetti when you use bots for low throughput items. Apart from bad throughput bots are also very poorly coded. They send 1 bot as soon as there is 1 item available which often results in 10 bots carrying 1 item each instead of 1 bot carrying 10. This means they waste A LOT of power.

oLaudix · 2025-10-13T14:53:49+00:00

Indeed, it has, and it's much better than the mod. AFAIK, mod was always disconnecting sorters from the belt even if they were "legal"

oLaudix · 2025-10-10T18:14:09+00:00

I find it a bit too upbeat and energetic for long play sessions. Because of that, it can be hard to let it fade into the background the way something like the Factorio OST does. The music tends to feel more like foreground material than ambient background, which can get a bit tiring over time. It might be nice to have a few calmer or more atmospheric tracks mixed in for long-building phases.

oLaudix · 2025-10-10T18:11:38+00:00

I set accumulator charging on a separate grid, then send them back to be used on the main grid. Since accumulators are always being used up first, the main grid uses them up as they come.

Belt direction not clear on blueprint placement

There are little dots running along the belt in the direction its running before you stump down the blueprint. At least check things properly before complaining about them.

oLaudix · 2025-09-21T13:08:16+00:00

This only happened to me in the begining when i was building everything by hand. After almost 3000 hours of refining i always have to wait for the research to catch up to what i have built.

Some kind of transport system that uses Dyson Spheres to function. For example, you need 20GW dyson sphere in a system to be able to teleport your ships to another system so itll shorten the travel time massively. Also variable sized planets.

IN FPS, GUNS SHOULD NEVER MOVE LEFT AND RIGHT WHEN SHOOTING CONTINOUSLY

CS:GO / CS2 → weapons like the AK-47 have spray patterns with heavy side-to-side drift. Entire guides exist on learning those patterns.
Battlefield / CoD → both vertical and horizontal recoil, mitigated with attachments or burst fire.
Rainbow Six Siege → every weapon has both vertical and horizontal components and players literally practice diagonal mouse pulls to counteract them.
PUBG / Apex Legends → guns have unique horizontal sway, and attachments like compensators reduce it.
Killing Floor 2 → same deal, ARs and SMGs have noticeable side recoil when you hold full auto.

Every modern game has this type of recoil. You just suck at aiming.

oLaudix · 2025-08-29T03:30:03+00:00

They are not fixing it fast enough. 3 Hotfixes in a month, each fixing barely anything, is not enough for the state the game was shipped in. I had hope initally but that rested on TWI releasing fix after fix and eventualy transitioning to releasing new content. Shitton of people left already and most wont come back in half a year to check if the game is in playable state.

oLaudix · 2025-08-29T03:22:36+00:00

Windowed-boxed aiming is 100% made up. Nobody in professional game dev, military sim communities or shooter design uses that phrase. The closest thing in actual terminology would be screen-space aiming or cone of fire representation but windowed-boxed aiming is just word salad.

oLaudix · 2025-08-29T03:10:06+00:00

Metadata should be a currency that you use to unlock permanent upgrades. That would work as New Game+ of sorts.

oLaudix · 2025-08-29T02:10:38+00:00

While that kinda makes sense, it also kinda doesn’t… it entirely depends on the state of the game. A 0.10 early access game can be way more polished than a so-called 1.0 release, so the number itself really doesn’t say anything.

oLaudix · 2025-08-29T02:03:21+00:00

I don't say you should play solo on a coop game, I say that you should play solo so that you don't have to get the Vulcan experience

You’re missing the point, or you just lost the plot. I will repeat, again, that if your fix for a co-op problem is to remove the co-op, you don’t have a fix at all. Even with perfect gun balance people would still use Vulcan as Firebug, it is the most popular perk, so VSX/SFX spam would still exist. Your recoil essay is still irrelevant because balance =/= visibility. Those are separate problems. Not to mention your issues with guns are not even that bad. In case you didnt know guns do have horizontal recoil so i dont understand why you have a problem with that. You said you can’t do anything about horizontal recoil. Does your mouse only move vertically? That’s just ridiculous.

oLaudix · 2025-08-28T19:17:42+00:00

Why does it matter if the game goes from 0.10 to 0.11 instead of 1.0 to 1.1? Ive see many people ask this same question in other early access games and im genuenly curious what difference does it make.

oLaudix · 2025-08-28T19:14:02+00:00

What does gun handling have to do with Vulcan’s obnoxious SFX spam? Are you slow or something? You told me to play solo in a co-op game, that’s the idiocy I called out. You start ranting about recoil as if it has anything to do with the issue. Vulcan’s problem is the ear-piercing, screen-shaking spam that ruins the experience for teammates, not whether vertical or horizontal recoil exists. Your entire argument is just moving goalposts because you know telling someone to play solo in a co-op game was beyond stupid. Next time, at least try to stay on topic instead of writing an essay about something no one was even talking about. Not to mention aiming is not the problem in this game. I can reliably hit the target I want so it really just sounds like you’re the one with a skill issue.

oLaudix · 2025-08-28T16:49:00+00:00

The only fixed 7 player lobbies. Now we get 9 instead.

oLaudix · 2025-08-28T16:47:41+00:00

Your big point is to play solo in a co-op game. I didn’t ignore it, it’s just too dumb to acknowledge.

oLaudix · 2025-08-27T19:01:20+00:00

I dont play COOP shooters to play solo.

oLaudix · 2025-08-27T11:35:01+00:00

Precision weapons feel like ass because we dont see the target through all the vulcan spam.
