About to purchase.

Post by Avous »

I'm about to purchase Factorio I wanted to know what the Furnace Attendant scenarios were like. I may upgrade depending on the replies. I ask because it's rather vague.

My experience with them is they are nice, but I still play the sandbox mode 90% of the time, if not more.
There may be more scenarios added in the future, I am not certain about it. The main reason I went for it rather then the basic tier is to support the developers :)

So my advice is - if you have the money and want to support the developers - get the higher tier. If you are not interested in this, or you are tight on cash, you probably won't miss too much by getting only the basic deal. You can always upgrade your account later.

And while you wait for answers, you can purchase the basic tier :). An Upgrade is every time possible for only the difference between the basic tier and the upgraded tier :)

Here is a Youtube video of one of the scenarios.

I also uploaded a pictures of one scenario:
Here you have to lay belts to transport things from the left side to the right side. Every item has to be filled into the correct chest, so you have to work with special and compact belt layouts. There are a few levels, all with higher item amounts and less space.

Yay glad you got it! :D if you already enjoyed the scenarios that much, I'm sure you'll have a blast in the sandbox mode.
Let us know it goes, and if you have questions, feel free to post them on forum here in the gameplay help section, or on the Factorio sub reedit :)

Best of luck!
