First of all, never build workshops in the inner ring, or even the first four rings. They have good insulation and can last the first week or more even without heaters before people really start getting ill in them. Second, Its a bit more effective to build gathering huts first because they start out comfortable and make people harvest faster. After you have the wood, build a medical post, then tents. This combo slows down science slightly but it helps keep people from getting sick, which can hurt everything else a lot more, particularly if you end up with gravelly ill. Third, partition out the entire first 4 rings for homes. Placing 4-5 steam hubs with maxed out range on the 4th ring will heat all homes in the center, and a fair bit of stuff outside of the 4th ring. Its also way more effective because 4 steam hubs cost as much coal as the generator at max range, but cover more area and do it more efficiently. Third and a half, NEVER use the generator range upgrades. Steam hubs are better in range and cost. Third and three quarters, having all the homes center like this works well for making sure watch towers and churches are most effective. Fourth, always get corpse pit and then organ transplantation. Sure deaths might cost more hope, but if you do it right you won`t have to worry about deaths. Also you doctors can transplant hearts form snowmen if you can keep everyone alive, so its always a flat +20% Fifth, use extended shift as much as discontent will allow. It is a 40% resource increase. And thats all the tips I have for you.

And I feel like it's exactly what faster gathring is about.

Just learnt the other day that you can use the middle mouse button to rotate the workshop. Gives you some more options on building placement. I did not know about the automation being able to research. I may change my strat so early game have the workshop on ring two due to insulation better. Late game move them out and rotate them and put an automate them. Replace the workshop with a tent/house etc to max houses near the center. I find putting as many tents/houses as closer to the center works best. I generally will upgrade the outer ones since they are colder. The ones in the middle can wait. If they get to cold on the outer rings will deploy a steam hub around ring 3. This will heat the cold homes and I will expand housing around the steam hub.

the faster gathering i guess could be considered as simply an abstraction of the workers having more efficient tools to pick up and travel with their collected ore or other goods like wagons and such, it does cost wood or something

Usually i prefer to build workshops in the second or even third ring, since workshops already have 2 insulation, so I can keep building houses as near as possible to the generator. Also, i'm not sure about this, but i think heaters for workplaces are more efficient than building a steam hub in the middle of two or three buildings (for exemple a coal thumper and two gathering posts).

Hubs are more efficient if you use the space wisely. If you can afford to have both running you can make even the worst of the storm liveable conditions (at least in the workplace), Especially with overcrowding infirmaries. 30 people (10 workers 20 sick) with +9 heat (+2 insulation, +3 heater, +4 steam hub) and you're golden. It's how I survived with no death from frostbite even though I had over 300 sick. Also Triage instantly heals 2/3rds, even if they don't fit in a medical building, and the deaths don't count as dying from sickness. Fully upgraded autos run infirmaries at 120% efficiency compared to humans, if you follow the faith path. At a cost of raw food you can add a bonus to heat in the workplace with soup kitchens

@cantankeroustank6904

6 жыл бұрын

I think both have their own benefits. In the early game heaters are cheaper for any solitary buildings (gathering huts, steelworks, wall drills and whatnot) but when you start to have 3 or more buildings clumped together, hubs and their '3 coal/h' become the cheaper option. Then, in the late game, heaters become relevant again for any low insulation buildings and for almost all buildings during those extra cold days.

This was just the video I needed, like your sense of humour too! Thank you for your help :)

Thanks for the tips. While like other said, there are better ways, but, this helped me so much. I normally build resources hubs before going into research. And this certainly helped me understand the major difference. Here is what I do. 1. Get 15 to coal, 15 to iron, all to wood on day1. After trying your way and this way, I noticed I get so much more resources in day1. The faster gathering isn't all that useful I might add. 2. Build 2 workshops like you said, but, on 2 and 2.5 ring behind the stockpile. They don't really need heat right away. And going this way I can put steam hub later with really good line up. 3. Build hospital and 7 tents. Leaving 10 wood for research. Once everything is built, quickly start research Beacon ASAP. This is because I noticed I only have enough time to get Beacon, Steam hub, and Wall Drill before the deep freeze. During deep freeze, I can mine the wall for super important wood. 4. Send 15 to free iron and everyone to fresh wood (except engineers ofc) put everything to extended shift once the law is passed. Including empty pile, easier to manage. 5. End of day2, I build Beacon, cook house, and 8th tent. Don't want them to starve, which they just stand there doing nothing. And get the hope boost due to 8th tent. 6. Day3 is 15 coal, 5 iron, more wood. 7. I also skip heater. I don't see the point. I need steam hub at iron walls. Which can put coal thumber level 2 and 4 collection posts there. So far, this seems to be a very good outcome. Maybe the heater is good? But, it is very limited. Steam hub is so much better.

Additional tip: try to have as many people working as possible. Idle hands means you lose the chance to get research done, to heal the ill, to gather materials, to scout/outpost, to serve at the Public House, or to handle your Order/Faith branch, which can mean issues later when you're desperately preparing for the end game. The only exception to this rule is kids; it's far better in the long run to go with Child Shelters and Apprentices, because those Medical or Engineering boosts are a life saver

One other trick you can do with Outposts, is that when you’ve received the daily delivery of whatever resource you’re waiting for, pack up and then immediately rebuild the outpost team at the location, it then sends a new resource delivery your way immediately.

They've also seemingly patched the Outposts trick, but what they won't patch out is being able to pack up the outpost immediately after sending out the latest delivery and having the outpost team get back to the city before the delivery (depending on the faster outpost teams research and timing), which is good for milking that last steam core in New Home, depending on timing.

The hunters to workers strategy doesn't work anymore due to the hunters exhaustion, it'll just say workers are resting after hunt

Another great video Matthew, thanks!

Don’t build the workshops on the inner circle. You will find 2 workshops fit nicely behind the stock pile. And research the 2nd tear to get to bunkhouses asap. You can have bunkhouses on the first day if you do this. Use emergency shift over height if you messed it up.

Thanks man I was making some silly mistakes early game. I think this will help.

I always set to gathering everything right away. 30 people on coal (2 piles), 25 on crates (2 piles, 15 and 10) and 10 on steel. Nobody wasting time building anything just yet, because...people can build outside of shift hours. Generator goes on ASAP, and then I hit the workshop, kitchen and start queueing up 8 homes, or as many as I have the materials for at least. Heaters is one of my first researches because my kitchen goes on ring 2 of the generator, leaving all the space aside from the general storage stockpile in ring 1 for housing. This allows me to save steam cores as I don't have to build steam hubs just yet, until I get fighting arenas and the pub set up with housing huddled around them.

You can to a point, but if you have any automatons (like the one you start with in Arks) they need at least some time each day to refuel. At -20 tents are enough to keep your population sufficiently warm.

If only they can maintain heat better, such as building underground facilities.

The weather outside is boiling but inside the temperatures is low, tempers are high and we're contemplating whether it's ok to eat the dead. This week on the Space Ark we're discussing fighting games and first up it's...

Research everything as soon as it's available. Got it

New player here! REALLY struggling with food! :(

As a player who learned all of these tips on my own or through this video, I can validate these to be very solid pointers for new founders of New London. These won't apply to every scenario sadly but as general advice, it goes a long way, well done! ^^ Admittedly, Steam Hubs can get pretty expensive if you build too many, it's good to make a backup plan by putting less insulated buildings such as Medical Tents and Early Residences closer to the generator. The likes of Workshops and Factories are usually well insulated and don't require additional heat via Radiators, Generator Range or Hubs until later on when the temperature starts to go for the method of "2 Steps colder, 1 Step warmer". One thing i am curious about though is how the FROST does a 3-4 Story Machine work in a Cook/Hothouse?!

Hey, those are great tips. Though 2\3 I figured myself during Hard Playthrough. You should do tips for Hard difficulty.

I had done everything in the rings never thought about branching out

great vid im looking for ways to beat survival :)

You can turn on overdrive first night to reduce sick by like 2 if you decide wait tell night 2 on tents -you don't have to run generator during work hours before first temp drop -scout teams move faster to locations they've been to so go there then go to the new point and if you find survivors but dont need them/arnt ready to feed that many don't take them just move on so when you show up it says survivors don't click a or x or whatever pc is just hit back and comeback later.

Turns out sickness has to do with temp stats throughout the day but your getting at least 2 sick on the first night on pretty much every difficulty no matter what you do.

Just bought the game yesterday and already failed twice. This was really helpful

For anyone watching this now, the hunter exploit doesnt work anymore. Hunters must rest after hunting, so if you try to put them to work somewhere else, you'll have low or no efficiency

This really helped thank u my first save battered me lol

My biggest regret is to destroy automatons for couple of resources. I just found the giant robot and don't know what to do with, so I just destory it for parts. Also I almost failed the game until I pick religion path. It was a close one, and the other group decided to join me instead of londoners. It was 58 earlier until it go down to 51.

Does anybody know how well this game plays when you meet all the critera but have only 1 GB of VRAM on your graphics card? I have 8 GB of ram on my computer (or so it says) and Frostpunk just needs 4 GB.

I managed to get to day 40 or so, but the cold weather is killing my people. Hope and discontent is no problem at all, food is under control, just the cold. I think those steam hubs will be a good solution as I didn't build a single one XD I thought they used too much coal.

Yeah the game is pretty unforgiving. Once you are at a certain level of hope or discontent (or both), you could have a pretty hard time recovering from that and in the end it could be that the people either leave to london, boil you or exile you, despite you being like 10hrs into the game.

Man, I had no idea you could gather without the gathering post... I restarted so many times thinking how can I get this generator on the first night! Then I was wondering why my coal thumps were not working, luckily it means I had over 10000 sitting there when I realised.

"Tents need 24 hour warmth" .. well if you could just do the reverse 12 hours of the work shift you could save a bunch of coal each day. If you try to micro it you will probably miss it one night and set yourself up for problems.

All living quarters should be in the first 2 inner circles and heated by the generator then working buildings have the steam hubs to keep them operating

This game has such a good OST.

Hold on a sec! That generator gives off enough thermal energy to melt snow over 100 feet away in every direction in -60 degree weather, but it doesn't even give the people beside it a sun tan?

Imagine walking 100 feet in over 0 degrees temperature and then all of a sudden you are at -70 Celsius hahaha

Forget that, where does all the water from the melted snow go?

Not that quickly. No 19th century coal powered system is going to blast-sublimate snow and ice at 20 below or worse into 100+ degree water vapour at 100 feet range.

People be like: You should build the workshop on the 4th ring until the 3rd week since it has two layers of isolation etc.. I be like: YOU NO HAVE TO BUILD STREETS TO GATHER STUFF?

before you start a scenario you have options 'start' or 'adjust difficulty'

This game is fun but my results with it have been terrible. Your video helped me get further but still ended badly and I once again got banished. It's too easy to get discontent and closer to impossible to raise hope.

I made emergency traight at the bat, you can do 2 researches on the first day and start building coal mines and wall drill to get 1st. for the beginning a warm working place and 2nd a infinite income of the most needed ressources in the first days

Damn. Your city must have suffered a lot. Or you did a lot of evil things. I had the same experience. That last storm was nerve wrecking. I had everyone rebelling. Everyone had lost hope. They had decide to throw me out, so I arrested people so they did not. They tried to do it again, but this time the guards also rebelled. I had to give empty promises and so on. However I did pull through and for some reason ended without any discontent and at maximum hope..... How the hell did that happen? Oh yeah. I also didn't know how awesome the infirmary was, so I just used medical tents.... yeah. I really had to use Triage in order to save the city. I think that was one of the biggest issues.

Everyone got ill And died on the first playthrough before I could even research the thumper, because there were no workers availible to gather wood. Thanks

regarding the hunting trick/cheat...I say, if the game has left it open, use it, don't feel guilty. Reason being, the game is naturally harsh on you (depending on the mode) and I think its fair game to take what you can. If you really roleplay the idea that THIS IS IS CLOSE TO THE END OF HUMANITY, someone is going to have to work 24/7 at some point? we are talking about extinction here people

Me with 87 minutes played watching this video and reading comennts -> o.O

Man you are ruthless but I would follow you in a survival situation. 😅🤣

Somebody needs to do a 9 tips and tricks video.

I recently discovered that there is a very nice kombo which can AT LEAST be used twice to survive the last days- If you dont choose the belief path and get the last law (new order)- there is no interest in hope, so you can discard all your ppls wants and Questions. YOu can also let them die off and dont care - because they will get unhappy -if the meter is full you have 2 days to get it down again - which is a piece of cake if you simply execute someone. Which has a cooldown of - surprise - 2 days :D I do not know if you can do this forever, but it helped me through the last 4 -5 days :D Dropped from a max of 280 to 24 Population though :D

ah, These few ppl :P ist amazing how my first try was going through faith, which didnt work. So 2nd one I went through order - at first I tried to be nice, and i ended being happy when I could finally execute someone again to survive 2 more days :D Ist not my favourite way, BUT I got to "win" on my 2nd try, which is good, I assume :P And the tactic is legit^^ Oh and thx for the Video :)

yeah in a 2ns run I didnt use it and got a much higher Survival rate :D but this strategy DOES make it easier to survive (even though 10-20/5-600 is a BIT of a loss^^)

I wish the in game tutorial was better. I just tried for the first time and yeah...that didnt go well. Thanks for the video

I’m just glad I wasn’t the only one forcing 24hr work across 2 jobs on my people haha 😂

Anyone have an idea when the PS4 release date is?

This game is really hard and I like it.

I just started playing this game and I can't build any of the stuff you guys have I got 3 sick that needs to be treated

I've heard great things about this game and got super hype for it, until I watched the gameplay. It didn't grip me as I had hoped. Still, I would like to give it a fair shot. Should I buy it?

It's on sale on steam for like $6 yes. I bought it after having it in my wishlist for years. And it's addictive/frustrating at first. Only attempted 2 games so far. Has a learning curve for sure.

1:00 If you put a professional nanny against some random teenager and tell them to clean a messy room thats exactly the same as the other and the same tools available to both you'll find the nanny far more thorough and efficient than the kid. This is because someone invented a method of approach for cleaning rather than just going at it without much thought.

its not picking stuff up faster, it's building wheel barrels ^^

I did not know that scouts had to DROP OFF!!!
