Re: Electric energy

When nuclear reactors and such get implemented I hope the actual building itself is HUGE. I really liked how large the oil refinery building is in-game, shows that its a powerful/important building, if that makes any sense.

Re: Large Hadron Collider (atom smasher)(endgame)(portals,et

I like the ideas thus far guys, lets keep adding to it.

In real life the LHC has also discovered "dark matter" and it could be used in some form in Factorio as an energy source or even as a sort of weapon. Would be interesting.

As was said a few posts above, now indeed is the time for the GREENLIGHT campaign to get started! All the momentum is in Factorio's favor right now. I guarantee you it will get greenlit faster than you can blink!

I tried every method you listed, installed the drivers you linked me to, placed the game folder into C:\Games, etc. Still having issues. Did you uninstall previous drivers first as I recomended? Installing wrong drivers once can prevent computer for corectly recognizing hardware after that. Another...

Thank you for your post Silverwarrior, it was very informative.

I guess I'll just wait till the next alpha release and hopefully it will be fine then, if not then ...

where are you looking for your drivers? http://support.amd.com/en-us/download enter the HD6300M into there and it brings up latest driver released 18/12/2013 for both win7 32bit/64bit. Awesome. I was on there earlier and when I put in my graphics card, it said that they are not compatible with my l...

0.8.8 demo playable, black screen on 0.7.5 and 0.8.8 alpha

Hey. Just wanted to say I love this game, played the first alpha version almost a year ago. Unfortunately once coming back to this game after many many moons away from it, I encounter issues. I have tried both the 0.8.8 and 0.7.5 alpha versions and once I load a mission I just get a black screen, no...

Brilliant. It looks like you guys have everything planned out and ready to go. Can't wait to see how things will look in the near future. :D I have a question though. With the addition of several coders to the team now, will you guys be working on optimization? I'm on a low-end laptop and when sever...

Re: Version 0.2.9

I'm super pissed about Paypal freezing your guys account. I was one of the first people to try out Factorio, I remember when the campaign was at like 400€ on Indiegogo and not many people believed it could make it. And now when the game has finally surpassed everyone's expectations, it has reached i...
