I am thinking of getting this but at £15 not sure

Old Man · 27 Feb 2016 at 09:29

Yup £15 is a tad too much and perhaps better to wait for a sale and or get a good review from OlimaxUK and maybe have a look see at him playing it.

You could try the free demo: https://www.factorio.com/buy

Don't dismiss the game because it's £15, if it's your type of game then the £15 is money well spent. Dunno how long I have played it but must be about 130 hours.

FrenchTart · 27 Feb 2016 at 09:38

I played the demo a while ago and it was pretty good. I'm not sure about £15 for it either to be honest but only really because I don't have enough spare time to invest to play this properly.

Definitely recommend it though.

one good thing about the MP is that each player can 'SAVE' their own personal copy of the map file to use in SP if they wish which I think is a great little feature

This a great looking game, downloading the demo now. and then might wait for a steam sale to purchase

Tobywon · 28 Feb 2016 at 13:20

Just lost 8 hours to this, you really do have to think, it's awesome!

Friend send me a link to a Youtube video earlier, took me all of 60 seconds before I was on Steam clicking the buy button.. Just lost the last 4 hours to it.. Totally addicted

Same, where the hell did my weekend go!

Glaucus · 28 Feb 2016 at 21:32

Been interested in this fir a fair while, just need the price to drop. Seems like a game I would lose a weekend to and then get bored of it.

This looks pretty good I've been searching for something like Transport Tycoon in terms of the moving resources from one place to the next in chains. Is this like that?

syks · 28 Feb 2016 at 22:02

looks boring as hell to me lol not my sort of game at all

FrenchTart · 29 Feb 2016 at 07:56

I may have spent nearly all of yesterday playing this :eek:

meandu229 · 29 Feb 2016 at 10:06

As above, bought this yesterday morning,, then it was midnight. Unsure how that happened. Great great game very polished and MP just makes it more fun. Get the demo if you are unsure but once you get into it I expect it gets much more complex I havent even got oil yet.

Tried the demo and had to go further. Got to a point where I was setting up defences then I got eaten. Started again this morning, had 2 games and both only lasted 25-30 minutes before I got attacked and eaten.

Tricky little game, quite addictive though.
