FFS the ammount of times i did one just to refund 😂😂😂😂 i love you 😘

This online tech tree tool looks AMAZING but the link is dead :( Does this exist in another form currently? The in game one is basically impossible.

Hi! Can you do a tutorial (or some advice video) for rendering videos in UE5? My case: I want to render some product animation and not be running hours in cycles for it!

Thanks!

good idea!!!

Satan himself blocked the contact for whoever the fuck designed the interface for this game. Welcome to force pause and read. Enjoy.

Excellent nation management overview. Trying to decipher the nation screen has been my biggest hinderance in doing well so far. You've basically covered every aspect that I was most confused about. Knowing this i now understand why my fully controlled united states is on the verge of civil war v2 lol

very helpful information thanks you.

To maximise your tech tree options, do a little math so you know when it is impossible for another faction to pip you to being the lead. As soon as that becomes apparent then you can pull all your tech from that research and put it into another where you can can catch up the lead, or sink it into the lower section for internal engineer works. The AI has to put its research into something so don't worry about all the factions suddenly pulling out as you have because they can't catch you. This is also how the AI seems to operate, where it will consistently monitor the options and drop tech to switch focus in order to dominate a tech. I successfully dominated 2 of the 3 research options for years concentrating on denying factions that I opposed.

just getting into the game, i choose the easy way ruling France to absorb my neighbors, do i need to maxout there mission control and build their own spaceprogram before absorbing them? or is it like the max. mission control for a region is kept and i can build it after absorbtion regardless?

Moon get the uranium, Mars get the gold. Ignore any moon stuff that doesnt have much uranium.. Just focus on taking all of mars

How to read and which government to choose in the winning country?

very good primer for beginners

Thank you a overlooked subject

Thank you, excellent technical details VT

Boy do i feel dumb. So obvious once you showed us.

100 hours in and never knew that was there. My Eu/pan asain india/caliphate academy playthrough... so much tome wasted...

Can you do one on just anti Zeno stuff

Awesome guide! Thanks mate

tech tree link is broken

thanks for the guide. subbed

The constant drain on alloys is a core game mechanic. You must be constantly finding more, or making them from iron. Or everyone dies. It's what makes people compare the game to Frostpunk, which has a similar mechanic of having to constantly procure coal to keep a generator running. Or everyone dies. Earth got glassed by falling moon chunks. Note all the huge craters. The massive impacts blew off nearly half of the atmosphere and 5% of the planet's mass, boiled away the oceans, and the residual heat from multiple massive impact events left the average temperature at a rather unpleasant 81°C. Using explosives to get into something never ends well.

If you use up all the fluorite on the planet to make greenhouse gases (equal measures of NF3 and SF6, as there's a diminishing return the more you add), the planet's average temperature will increase to about +12°C and water levels will rise to about 200 meters of elevation, plus or minus 5-each of the separate little seas has its own individual sea level. Aside from lowlands being submerged, you'll have lots of large rivers too. Also, water flows downhill-if it looks like a river is going to cut through an important area, you need to entirely encircle it with dams to divert the water around it, with one outlet at the lowest point. Pay attention to the elevations in the bottom-left. Otherwise, rainfall is just going to collect within and flood it anyway. It's not really possible to save areas that are going to end up below sea level. Try to keep out the rising tide on one side, and streamflow is just going to fill it up from the other.

wait, you arent supposed to?

You South African?

Where is next episode, did you drop the game? :'(

Thx for the guide man. This is sort of a game thats realy need this. I also liked choces that you made in video editing. Also cheers for that

I appreciate this video more than I can express.

Thank you for this guide, and thanks to the commenters adding additional tips! I'm a first time player myself after I got this game for Christmas. Decided I'd try a Russia-based run. Things will be slow-going for a while, but I figured for realism's sake I would work on consolidating control of the CIS nations and federate all the other post-Soviet nations, then once megastates are researched start reabsorbing them until the USSR's borders are restored. Things are going along okay, though my attempt to crack down and purge the bottom two control points in Russia were thwarted by three bad rolls in a row at 80% chance of success, followed by the other faction securing them, locking me out for the long term. How I hate RNG.

Having 2+ counselors advise on the same nation is diminishing returns, however different nations there is no loss of efficiency. Unifying countries is the best strat for a permanent advise counselor as it works on the whole nation. Also, ADM stat on GDP is false. I alters the GDP calculation used when generating investment points...it will hardly effect the actual GDP unless you have lots of dots in economy. Admin advise increases anything you have investment points in. You can see it in the description.

Fantastic Video and new sub. Great tips for beginners and people with a play through under their belt. There is so much resource and to better focus your attention your pointers are helpful to keep you on the right track. Again there are so many tracks, mostly leading to engines lol Hope you make more videos as you go. Thanks for your help

&,05, that has nothing to do with actual gravity mate, Gravity is 4 dimensional not 2.

I’m guessing the misophonia mode reduces or eliminates that man’s infernal chewing. Thank goodness, if true. Nice of the devs to save the last shreds of my sanity.

Now imagine my face when I realized I just had to zoom out of Earth for the button to build a satellite appear. My biggest difficult now is to manage my boost, even with full control over the US it's far from enough.

ALIENS 👽

if you're making a guide, it doesn't serve to open up the tooltip and just read it from it. I can do the same thing. I'm looking for things which aren't said there.

Super helpful, thanks!

Good video! Left a sub :)

Thnx for the short and sweet video. I would have liked it if Command would rather contribute a % increase to the investment points in miltech. Kinda useless as is unless you're in war.

There are 3 organization-based traits actually, apart from Government and Criminal, there is also Sociopath. Just like Government and Criminal are opposed to each other in term of what orgs are available, Sociopath effect this but there is no 'counter trait' for Sociopath but rather not having it. Sociopath trait allows the councilor to control terrorist organization like ISIS and Al Qaeda, however having Sociopath trait bars the councilor from getting humanitarian organizations. Suffice to say Terrorist Orgs are mutually exclusive with Humanitarian Orgs.

Was that opening shot a cutscene?

"PerunGamingAU had the Earth disappearing. Then again you mentioned you have a backlog."

I've got a backlog of these, editing is slow. This was recorded at the start of October 😅 will try to speed up

i think you get a bonuis if you spread your tech research.

While game dosent explain it at any point there is actually significant research bonus for contributing to multiple projects So you should contribute at last one dot to each

OH MAN! i had been going to the relations tab and hitting the manage button and hovering over stuff. AWESOME

I love this. I have already learned all this the hard way but I know new players will benefit.

I had to restart because stupid AI picked Mission to Mars and Space Mining techs before we even had Mission to the Moon...

This was great! Hope you make a habs and orbitals guide too. I have no idea what the other orbitals do other than LEO. Also how to defend orbitals, and some of the more niche habs.
