Hello again folks, This sure was a thing to have done. In case you were wondering whether you had to be good at Factorio to get through Krastorio 2, now you know... I think I recommend giving it a go, but it's hard for me to say whether I enjoyed it yet... You lot play much Factorio or is it one of those that you prefer to watch? Also, anyone else who's gotten through Krastorio 2, what was your time?

"I'd like my life back please." -Every factorio player ever.

Factorio... oh god, I can feel the addiction returning

"I'm going to need a lot more soon, but I'll get to it later." Every new production facility in Factorio.

There was an experiment that youtuber Michael Hendriks did, 1 pumpjack at an exhausted oil well to supply an entire mega base with the oil necessary for flamethrower turrets on deathworld setting. The result was that a single pumpjack could produce enough oil for flamethrower turrets for multiple mega bases. So feel free to use some liquid freedom in your defense strategy, it's an even better bug killer then raid.

Thanks for playing Krastorio 2! I really enjoyed the video, and I'm glad that you enjoyed the mod. It's unfortunate that you ran into that ending cutscene bug, because I fixed that about a week ago. Sorry to deprive you of a satisfying biological reaction. I have rewritten the loader snapping, so it should work OK with blueprints now.

I love how Dosh had to make a computer himself for his factorio city video and Hazzor is here like "haha, supply depot go brrr". Awesome video. So glad more creators are adopting this format for factorio content. It really is the best way to make a playthrough.

Holy spaghetti is a major part of factories. You did much better than I could. You got yourself another subscriber.

I came for Rimworld, but i stay for Hazzor. You are really nice to watch and with that style, all games are good.

Ah yes, rare speciment of interesting factorio video. Great job mate.

I quickly realized that going for the optimal base building strategies, with those long spacious main busses and city blocks is just too unfulfilling, makes me feel like doing some actual work instead of playing the game. The main culprit was the Rampant mod, which forced me to build a pretty small and heavily fortified base due to the constant biters attacks, which meant that space was precious, and at least a little bit of spaghetti was just necessary. Thanks to that and multiple rebuilds, moving stuff around, looking for a creative ways to solve simple problems etc. the end result was somewhat messy, but also much more interesting base layout.

I remember the reason Loaders were abandoned was because they couldn't have dynamic limits for items and therefor could end up holding hundreds of thousands of items leaving you wondering "Where did all my production go?"

The factory must grow

I have 0 hours in factorial but for some odd reason I do really enjoy watching people play it. You joking around throughout the video I rather enjoyed, can’t wait to see what game you’ll play next.

Yeah this definitely earned a subscription. I cant fathom 98% of what you did in this. I love playing factorio for about an hour before I can’t stand it anymore. Well done sir.

27:50 "Raw dogging the filthy ore" might be one of my favorite things I've ever heard in a factorio video lol.

The Matt Berry impression was spot on, now....time for bed.

I am quite loving this channel, the mix of informative commentary mixed with "these are my mistakes, im living with them and so are you now" with a lovely heaping of humor with your delivery makes this all too fun to watch. Thankee for your sacrifice of lifeforce to produce this video

Finally someone equally unable to be willing to learn trains. They frighten me, signals frighten me, people who understand them frighten me.

Dude your videos are always the best! Your channel is going to absolutely explode soon, I can feel it. Good content has a way of rising to her surface.

Thanks for the video! It's brilliant as always. I've been watching you since the Songs of Syx video and I was surprised when I saw the K2 video. It's good to see that K2 is still alive.

the C in seablock stands for suffering

I have played and finished K2 too (Dosh was the inspiration). Its probably the best overhaul mod for someone who has never played one before. Great video. keep up the good work :)

This video was awesome. I've never actually beaten Krastorio (or Factorio for that matter), but I love that you just threw your own approach at the game. I know you probably used some people's blueprints from time to time, but I love watching people create their own factory designs. It puts your style in the game and it shows how you think about logistical issues. Amazing video and I love that you beat it even while using your own made up designs which people often are too scared to even attempt :)

I found your channel through Rimworld so i was pleasantly surprised to see you play Factorio too. I would love to see more of it if you can find interesting challenges or mods to play with. While everyone knows Seablock from Dosh's amazing series on it, Normal Angels/Bobs is plenty hard in its own right, ajd theres always Space Exploration. (I dont know how much I'd have to be paid to combine the two...) Loce your narration and writing style so I'll definitely be sticking around for a while ❤ edit1: Dosh's train guid is a great place to start for learning how powerful they can be. I personally cant play without the Logistic Train Network (LTN), which lets you park trains in depots and the stations can request a train to deliver goods from orovider stations to requester stations. Super fun to use, and VERY modular so its a breeze to expand if you need more trains.

I enjoyed the self deprecating humor. It's how I play games all the time.

I absolutely love this. this reminds me of when I had 100 hours and you're excellent at explaining your thought process as you play

**39h in** "Look's like we're closing in on 2h of playtime" Proof that Factorio bends time

Recently subscribed and really enjoying the presentation, editing and humour in your videos. You are quite similar to "Ahoy" with how you create your content and I rate that as top notch ✌🏼

One year later. Congratulations you introduced me to doshdoshington channel and I'm a fanatic.

I've never seen a Factorio run presented like this. Very nice, and a good watch.

Very quickly became my favorite KZfaqr love your videos

You haven't seen savage until you've seen me play: Resource drones and networks? Trains? Modules? What are those? Fun video.

Honestly, this is really one of the best up and coming channels on KZfaq. Glad that I was able to discover it.

I'm coming to the party late I know, but I needed to comment on how I nearly choked to death on food. The catalyst what Chad Kroeger passionately asking me to look at the graph he had made like he's a 5 year old. Well done

I mean this in the most posotive way possible: it's very refreshing to see gameplay from someone with a similar experience level to my own

Okay, so I was listening to this as I was playing RimWorld. It's 2:12 as I write this, so I'm a little bit sleepy and I was lying on my bed hugging my blahaj and drifting off to semi-sleep when I heard the RimWorld raid alarm. Allow me to recount my exact thought process: "Oh, a raid! Shit!--wait, it's probably from Hazzor's video... _wait, this isn't a RimWorld video!"_

Wooot! New video! Lets go! My morning is so much better now

2:22 "WE GET REEAAAAAL DIRTY OUT HERE!"

Starting out I also use massive looping ammo belts for my walls, Machine Gun turrets actually scale pretty well into vanilla late game with shooting speed and bullet damage research. Eventually when I have a logistic network set up I simply disconnect the long ass belt from ammo factory and set up provider and requester chests between ammo production and each wall segment, then dump the surplus ammo into the requester chests with the most alien activity. Not sure if it's even close to the most optimal way to play, but it's worked for me even after launching 100+ rockets in my current save!

10:25 this is THE quintessential beginner style of play and it is absolutely adorable

I appreciate the Rimworld music near the end of the video. Factorio could definitely do with some upgraded musical options.

You did awesome! You played with the true factorio spirit

43:35 We've lost him, boys. He's gone now. (Sad kazoo eulogy)

for fueling cars and such, there is a fuel processor you can make early on that lets you essentially condense solid fuels such as coal and wood into processed fuel, which can run in any motor vehicle and anything that need fuels, more efficient and less pollution to boot

The wall of laser & machine guns is how I normally play.

1:10. Looks over at his Krastorio 2 + Space Exploration save nervously... This is fine.

This game is quite a headache to understand but super interesting to know of, material made and other stuff, my inner engineering mood rising hard on this.

>mentions doshdoshington I see you are a man of culture as well

35:00 just casually venting chemical weapons into the air, no wonder the Biters are so grouchy 😂 But as I say in my Rimworld play-throughs: ain't no OSHA/CSB/ICJ in space 🤷‍♂️

"Not using much lube in this playthrough." Hazz you absolute evil bastard. How could you?!

Trains are simple Before an intersection : chain signal After the intersection : rail signal If there's another intersection in front of the first intersection : chain signal

I mean at least you did it. I gave up my save upon reaching blue science then decided that my main bus is garbage and that its better to just make a city block base powered by trains, my cities were full of 4 way intersections. Was halfway to making it and realised that I also need to get stuff to get enriched metals and just decided to go 'nah'. One of the biggest reasons for giving up was the mall I saw on factorio prints, like holy hell that is long. Funnily enough using AAI industry made start easier - didn't need to suffer with terrible wind energy and just went from using burners directly to steam. Inserters being able to put in near side of belt also comes from Schall's inserters. Ammo belt is best practice since having inserters take from another turret in conga line is just asking to run out of ammo.

0:48 A prayer to the Factorio gods, as is appropriate in any undertaking as grand as this.

I enjoyed watching, gj !

Love your content chief! I'm curious whether you usually record in one big long setting or save clips as you go?

this video definitely deserved more views hopefully the algorithm picks up on it one day

What a great video you made.

Jeepers..... I got hungry watching this, also thanks for the idea for what to make for dinner tonight.... I got a craving for spaghetti

Turret walls with belts are good, just add flame turrets as soon as you can!

The factory must grow!

looping ammo belts around your base are the way to go imo, its easy to expand and makes refilling easy

31:50 Make my day :D Great story and nice factory!

I just looked at my "finished" Krastorio run. I played it with 3 other people, there are different bases doing differnt things stealing of resources, with belts, from one base to another one centrilized research base to which are the card/sicence delivered ... also by belts, and its full of stupid and maybe little rasistic messages made from fake islands, concrete and one time wind power turbines, the starting generator is still at it's place just for lulz, and once saved ourbase from blackout, there is train but only for lulz and manual artilery strikes..... it is over 50 hours. So you still did it better than 4 "autists". Good job, I'll go back to Space exploration... it is already more than 50 hours and we got only to orbit.

I don't play factorio, but I do watch Dosh's videos. So thank you kindly for the warning in the beginning.

One video more close to the second part of the Starsector series

honestly quite incredible

Thanks for the content!

20 minutes in, holy shit, I thought I was a unique dunce, but you nailed my problem right on the head.

Its amazes me that you know how to automate trucks but cannot figure out trains lol

Hey loved the video, in case you didn't know you can use inserters to take ammo between gun turrets directly instead of making a massive ammo belt, save those belts for some tasty spaghetti somewhere else!

I absolutely love the little trucks

Amazing content

10:30 ammo belt? yes. A looped ammo belt? usually not.

Laughed so hard on the Nickelback graph clip.

honestly i thought that that ending where it said "this is Krastorio" was where the real modded experience BEGINS

the quantum matter stuff reminded me personally of the factory mod for rimworld. That lets you, among other things, transform enemy raider corpses into emc cubes which can then be in turn transformed into just about any basic resource imaginable, and a significant number of high level resources too. My personal system however relied on mining stone chunks up from the ground and harvesting them into emc cubes for their high mass and ease of access. The only real balance on this system, if you can call it that, is that the conversion process could be configured to take only a few seconds and consume tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of emc cubes per second; or only consume a few hundred to a few thousand emc and take upwards of a quadrum or longer.

I used to Mighty Jingles, but now I Hazzor

“It’s kind of shy due to how ugly it is.” Dude, same.

Damn that transport drones mod looking good, will love to add it to my already mining drones. Love these kind of things

Mama mia! You are hilarious! Keep up the great work!

Thanks for Inspiring me again.

Fantastic!

Nice one

Great video, you should post your mods and and map string in the video description. Keep up the great work! Subscribed.

More of this please!

Mining drones are pretty OP. They eat pollution to such an extent that near the mines there was no pollution on my worlds

Nice, can't wait for your Angel's & Bob's run *wink wink*

After beating Krastorio, I wondered whether you could replace out the entire need for mining, refining and smelting by using the matter conversion to turn something infinite (like wood) into the base ingredients you need to make things. Like, instead of a train network shipping in the ore from mining outposts, you have a huge swathe of greenhouses pumping out wood, which is converted to matter. I haven't done it, I value my sanity, but it'd be quite the challenge.

Loved it

36:00 Yea but equivalent exchange was even more OP lol

im playing bobs and angels without bobs intermediates but even so its just pain. I spend so much time either looking at the helmod planner or running around gathering items to build stuff. Tried organizing stuff with factorissimo and it went amazing up to the second, then it became absolute pasta.i just got into steel and yellow belts/splitters/tunnels, being gray belts the ones you start with

amazing watch, i will be honest though, it hurt every time i saw speed modules in the blue chip assemblers. ouch

It's very refreshing to see a bigger Factorio video that is made by someone who doesn't do everything perfectly and more like I play it, messy lol

Aye the EE mod reference, fun fact theres a mpdern day port of it called ProjectE thats mostly the same and very fun

crazy! played a overhaul mod with only 100 hours in and haven't even touch trains! I hope you have fun i guess xD 👍

now ur gonna spend 400 hours doing space exploration then another 500 doing space exploration + krastorio 2 then the real fun begins with pyanodon with alien life :) also would highly recommend bob's adjustable inserters, fun and useful

As someone who’s bad at factory building games I feel like this factory was pretty good who needs efficiency if it gets the job done eventually

After reading that title how could I not watch this

Grat video
