"We need more wood to make more people because people obviously come out of wood..." I mean, he's not wrong...

Factorio + Trains Factorio Trains The trains in Factorio: "What am I, CHOPPED LIVER?"

this reminds me of my previous home. there was a train track directly behind the trailer and it would shake my entire bedroom every single time the train went by. my cat would freak out and hide in the bathtub when we first moved in, but he eventually got so used to it that it wouldn’t even wake him up. i really miss that home. i still live close enough to the tracks to watch it go by every day, but it’s not the same. i’d never imagine i’d become emotional from train transportation, but here i am. this was a really good video 1000/10

AA, I really just wanna say that I love how you format the vods, always prefacing with some context and a voiceover.

A train sim that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to play?

Factorio + Trains, this seems like an awesome combo :D

When you want trains to be able to take branching paths if one is blocked, like say different tracks at a station to prevent them lining up even if there are available platforms, you need a Chain Signal at the junction where you want it to pick. Otherwise with a normal Rail Signal it will just wait until the way it wanted to go when it left the previous station is emptied.

4:15 "Part of the joy of this game is in being bad in it before doing everything in an optimized way", this is one of my favorite aspects of games generally. The exploration of the play space, the free and raw creativity of playing with a new game. Looks like a promising game! I'll have to check it out some time Edit: After watching the entire video, I'll add that this game seems to have good pacing. It seems like a few times as soon as some new content or mechanic became "unlocked" was right when you needed it. A train car that transports new cut stone, or a new resource type added right when things were starting to stabilize. This game loos very well paced, or at least the first hour of gameplay looks good!

I gotta say, I'm a huge fan of this format, your narrative style, and the bluesy piano music this game chose to include. The combination of the mellow format, your naturally soothing voice, and the immaculately composed soundtrack makes the perfect viewing/listening experience.

Your voice makes me want to fall asleep but at the same time it intrigues me enough that you could upload a 12 hour video about the most boring of stuff and I'd still watch it without being bored or fall asleep.

Today's VOD brought to you by the word "Granular" :D

Please try Open TTD! It is free and maintained by a community with a ton of mods. It’s great.

This has been a really nice change of pace, just a long relaxing video. Love to see more videos like this

I'm such a fan of your longplay content. The PZ challenges made me fall back in love with the format, and your take on it is relaxing and entertaining, don't stop!

This was really fun to watch you walk through, I hope to see more of it!

Oh my god, those train horns sound exactly like the Roller Coaster Tycoon ones. You can't imagine how much of a nostalgic feeling that gave me

I can always count on you to make a good game recommendation. Really enjoy your videos

Honestly loving the long simulation game playthroughs. Even more than the shorter videos on your main, despite the less polished story telling narrative. Wish more would come sooner! Keep it up!

Bless you Ambiguous with these long videos ❤️

I love the variety of games you cover Mr. Amphibian

AA, the pace and timbre of your voice sounds laced with anxiety. Your presentations are marvelous. When you're having fun, we're having fun.

Factorio [has trains] + trains. Must be alot of trains

I’m so entranced by the way you explain things that I didn’t realize I was watching the vod for a while

Oh my, logistics game. I do like logistics.

Lovein' the long-form vids!

I wanted to scream when you built an entirely new rail line trough the middle of the loop instead of doubling the much shorter track between the coal mine and the warehouse lol

As someone who love OpentTTD, this looks right up my alley

I am thoroughly enjoying this longform content. Thanks!

Man if only there were trains in factorio

Oh, those houses and the general art style remind me a Lot of Anno

Would love another of these. You have a very calming voice.

Factorio + Trains = Factorio. It has trains xD

When I noticed that you didn’t have your coal train dropping coal off to C H I C A G O, I was STEAMING.

Great video, keep up great work, im looking forward for Kenshi 2!

Thank you for providing a good guide for this new game i picked up!

definitely keen for more videos like this

I had no idea you liked to play with basically a more detailed version of Model Railroad building. I totally get it - it saves the money and space of a physical diorama and allows for private nerdsim satisfaction. No judgement - this looks like fun and also like Factorio style games. Keep 'em coming :)

Interesting to see your method on a wholly new game. See, I would always build things like the train stations or other central buildings first. And then build the housing or production around those areas. But you seem to be doing it the other way around. I will definitely have to check this game out. Though as a person I usually want to wait until the full game is released. Since I am bad at returning to games I've already played.

This review generously paid for by the potato merchants guild of Chicago.

this long format was nice but I am still looking forward to one of your cut highlight style videos of this game; like seeing you go from starting to 2000 people will be cool

Yes yes, Build the things, put it next to the stuff and add a nice whatchamacallit too!

Great video mate! Remember, even if what you doing in the game may not be optimal, logicalizing with that smooth voice makes it all OK!

i didn't knew you had a vods channel, great video AA, this game looks very interesting.

Cole Train Runs on Whole Grain, Baby! Whoo! Was what I was thinking from gears 3

When you were talking about making another train to take coal to the warehouse and what to name it, I immediately thought of John Coltrane as the best name possible. I'm glad you thought of it too!

Normally I play Rimworld, but this game looks interesting. Thanks for sharing 😊👍

Fantastic definitely want to see more very soon 😊👍🏽

got halfway through the video before going to steam and getting the game, hope you're happy

30:05 epic voice crack. Love it!

love that you are making coltrane references

This looks like a fantastic mix of Transport Tycoon and the Anno games

"I haven't had a train Crash yet but I'm Really looking Forward to when it happens." The way this was said with next to no emotion was horrifyingly hilarious.

I like that the music is kind of like in Trains & Trucks Tycoon from 2002. hardcore nostalgia

this looks like a cozy yet challenging game Will defs need to check it out! :D

Adding a single passenger car to the potato loop and maybe some others that stop in town would help moderate the passenger trains load, or a second loop of workers.

I want to call this "Trainno 1800" It is very similar to anno 1800 but with emphasis on trains instead of steam ships. I like Anno 1800, but you can only use trains to transport oil cars.

I’m sure you have heard this before but you do make me laugh. You are a funny chap - and I say this unironically. Keep up the good work you ambiguous amphibian you ☺️

For the wood route , why not "Woodstock Express" ? XD and you should use the chain signal at the start & end of your intersection & train station to have a better flow and space between your train , the tutorial in the game is pretty awesome, i STRONGLY recommend it to everyone how want to use signal before starting in the game :D

The paradox of a one way loop has broken me

Wow a train game that let's you build other infrastructure than just the trains? Awesome!

Reminds me of a cross of Factorio and OpenTTD (which I see the Yogs play in December)

I'd make the gap between the platforms 3 wide so you can have a bypass route, if both slots are filled with the Proletariat train and the load/unload train

pls play this again i was glued to the screen the whole time

with the updates since your video, the train checks for fuel when it arrives at a station and just before it departs. also Warehouse now has roads to give more room to expand and add stations.

The game mechanic where it equally spaces out multiple signals if you click and drag is *brilliant* - I wonder how well it would work in factorio.

This is like railway empire, which i really liked.

I am buying this RIGHT NOW

More of this please 💜

Oh no, I thought we'd start seeing 6 way intersections and rhomboidal town design

I desperately need a new openTTD game with modern graphics.

This reminds me more of Anno + Factorio

Kinda reminds of Railroad Tycoon, except that you also build the cities you service.

The devs have blocked the access to their product in my country, genius business strategy, wish them all the success they deserve

people on the track gave me images of those old black and white scenes of a villain in a top hat and cloak with a long mustache tying a damsel in distress to the track.

Coalinga in California is named as such because it was Coaling Station A back in the day

50:10 aww i can listen to your heart how cute

love this game

oh look, its trasport tychoon remake. löooks fabulous to play

NICE! GET IN MY STEAM LIBRARY!!!

The city building reminds me of the Anno Games

The game feels pretty nifty, but I can't get over the fact that tracks don't really curve.

Man…I haven’t watched the video yet but I know what game this is and I have to say…my favorite thing as a child, even before vidya was that I’d mount simulated train supply lines with my grandpa motorized train models, I’d make whole runs between my little cities bringing resources and simulating an economy…I was four years old when I started doing that, then I discovered trading simulation games of all kinds which simulated supply lines(patrician or rise of Venice or port royale for example) and then I discovered city builders of all types and Then i got into railroad tycoon style games where you ran trains and supply lines…now this game…this game is a mix of all those, it speaks to my autism on a spiritual level.

this game is anno+factorio. You should play anno

i feel that i have a dire need to play this game now.

Ey very nice video i like that content

4:20 Oh yeah, exactly. When you're soo good at the game that you start optimizing the fun out and are left with tedious efficiency.

Its prety interesting how here you got one way tracks going in a loop with detours to the side i wonder how big you can make a system of this type before it becomes ineficient, i think there has to be a reason for most trains irl to go 2 ways its for sure more eficient on complicated routes but i wonder how much more dificult is it to make a system like that in this game

this games is a good combo of indeed factorio and transport tycoon. lots of mechanics are familliar if you played TTD

Reminds me of the Aunty Donna board game. Trade one wood for one wood, which means you have a wood and win the game.

Tupac laying down some sick country rhythms for the soundtrack.

This game seems very similar to transport tycoon. I think this is a buy for me. Building trains was my favorite part of factorio. I still don't understand the role of distribution centers. If you can connect directly to the factory (sawmill, coal mine, etc) what do you need to build a dist center for? Curious.

The opportunities for puns are endless. Yeah. That tracks...

game looks neat :)

This gives me big Anno vibes

Please give us more of this game

train robberies would be an amazing addition to that game, just my opinion.

This game looks like it’s gonna be unplayable because every time I play it I’ll fall asleep from the soothing soundtrack and sounds.

hey dude this is great

they turned factorio trains tutorial into a standalone game
