Great you take this challenge :D
@@jasperwillem hey there! Is this Jasper Van Weerd? Just wondering :)
Well said. I realize that this video is nearly a year old, but would you consider doing a series, perhaps working with intermediate players and showing us how to rescue our game?
This series is clever idea. I basically abandon most games because I get annoyed with my own ineptitude in city design and city development.
I might have the patience to see a game through to where I face problems like this. Then the game, like real life starts to get interesting... Keep up the good work
Before season 3 with its skyscrapeds i was ok, but ever since artistas i feel for all irl citybuilders, its still fun though (send help)
just wanna look a little bit and somehow end up looking the whole thing. very entertaining
I’ve restarted approximately five times due to my brain not being to handle managing the new world. This gave me a great concept on importing and shipping. And not to underestimate keeping the locals happy 😊
Heya, I just finished watching this. It was so cool. Thanks for helping me out! I think it'll take me decades before I finally start mastering this game haha.
And got good at the game?
Super excited for this series.
What a great idea for a video series!! I'm a very new player to the game and while your normal video series have been extremely useful, this helps out a lot!
I don't know how many others would find it useful, but trade routes from island to island and especially from the new world to the old seem to be the baine of my existence. My solution has been to pause production chains until there is a good amount of items/ingredients in stock on the island I'm trying to produce the final goods on. But then the newspaper yells at me for a "canned good shortage" 🤦🏻♀️ Cotton from the new world has been my life's struggle lol
Any way....moral of the story is....great series idea! Love the videos 😁
Fixing peoples games is such a fun concept and good way to learn. I like it a lot.
Super useful series. Please consider making another one.
If I sent you my islands you would just start to shout at your screen....... you would keep repeating "But why why.......... But seriously this is a fantastic idea, I have never seen anyone try something like this on you tube and I am sure there are lots of people out there who would love to have their game fixed up and learn something... great stuff.
LOL you're welcome to send it to me on Discord! Might take a couple weeks for me to get to it, but I would give it a go!
@@TakaCZcams I actually deleted it in a fury, I am doing better now. This game is so addictive.
Your cat seemed interested in playing Anno as well. great series and effort!
My first save I abandoned because it was a disaster. Not nearly as bad as this but there were just too many shortages I didn't want to deal with along with a few other major problems. My second save I started I found the statistics page in the game and followed it religiously. Anything that was a little short I immediately fixed and got going again. Followin that chart is one of the best things you can do it this game.
Sheesh this hurt my eyes to watch.
To any new players out there:
-Check your production screen (CTRL + Q) OFTEN, and I mean OFTEN. Every time you pop down more houses, demands change, so if you just upgraded 10 houses to the next tier, check your production rates to see what went up or down.
-In the Needs/Happiness tab for your citizens, hover over each good to see what it gives you. A church, for example, provides only happiness, but if you look at something like the Variety Theatre, it gives you +coins for every Artisan it can reach, both of these buildings are luxury buildings. A great tip when you reach Artisans is to try to skip the Canned Food and head straight for the Sewing Machines instead. Canned Food gives you about 7 coins per Artisan, but the Sewing Machines are double that. Setting up Canned Food production takes a lot of workforce and since there's a lot of buildings, a lot of maintenance cost. Sewing Machines are way more simple to produce, and you don't need as many factories.
-Read the production time of certain goods, it's way easier to keep track of if you have "sets" of production lines. Bread for example: 2 farms, 1 mill, 2 bakeries. So the next time you're running low on bread, just add another set of that. We saw a great example in this video with the coffee and tobacco. It feels like the person with this save file saw "I'm not producing enough coffee, guess I'll put down some more coffee makers" without adding the coffee plantation necessary for it to actually produce that much coffee. Adding 1 coffe factories? You need two plantations, every time (not factoring in productivity bonuses and other stuff). With sets of production lines, you never have to guess which good is running out in the middle of the production, you really only have to keep an eye on the end product.
-Plan ahead and abuse as much space as you can. When you settle your first island in a new game. Take a look at it and guesstimate where you'll have certain production areas. Keeping production organized makes it much easier to troubleshoot problems, rather than having 10 factories of one good, but they're all in different places and it becomes a complete mess. If you have played a couple of times before, and gotten to Artisans, Engineers, Investors and that fun stuff, you should already have a grasp of what you need and how much of it when you start a new game.
I love this series :-D Hope you will continue this in the future. It is amazing
I do have a couple of other disaster saves on the channel that you can see!
Got behind on your vids. Was nice to sit back and watch you work again. It’s like they made a game and jacked it up before sending it to you.
Lol That would be interesting wouldn't it...
Super cool. Seeing you fix the issues. Subd
I liked the bit about your cat. (Also it’s all really useful info!)
i think this might all started because of how newbie reacted to this game (just like me). You happily build the first few houses, then you realize your money start swinging negative or your goods keep swinging negative and then your population also go negative. Which i guess is the reason why things are all over the place with weird road etc., because we are just trying to build what we want at that time.
You get into panic mode, keep building and building without waiting for the effect, one moment you solve your production, one moment you short of workers. Your life is like a hamster trying to balance on a ping pong ball while eating - very busy, never stable :D
Very true!! I see it happen often. It's a very common mistake to make. Helping others see these mistakes, why you make them, and how to avoid it is key!
That is why I tend to place residences in batches. I place a few down and check my production and make sure it is at equilibrium before I place more or upgrade residences.
Late to the party but I really think this was super helpful. I get quickly scatter brained at the end of artisans and I always try to do Crown Falls but then I regret even going there because it all got so overwhelming to manage. Think I'll wait to move on past old world until I am really settled with some engineers. Not having commuter piers really screwed me.
Your videos are great man. You should see my dissaster on all island 🤣
The new production tab is Godsent
It really is!!
Very clever series I think it may help me before I have a Disater
god i needed this... iget burn out at artisans trying to figure out what hell im doing wrong... +1 Sub here
I love this. This sir has got you a new subscriber.
Welcome!! 😁😁
Great job 👍
Just wanted to add my commendation, this is a great way to help others with the game. I'm fairly early days into the game, just now playing campaign on advanced to give me a challenge. I did wonder what would be your recommendation to someone starting out on the game as to set-up, ai etc?
Anyway, many thanks again, inspirational gaming at its best!
If you are BRAND new to the game, I would do a custom difficulty campaign playthrough. Remove the 3 AI that it recommends you play against on Normal so you have no competition for islands. Other than that, leave all settings as default and then get started! This will let you learn the basic mechanics of the game and not have you be stressed about trying to compete with others.
@@TakaCZcams That's interesting, keep the AI though so you can buy goods and items I guess. Such a great game that is so flexible. I built my computer at Christmas just so I could play it after I got a discount with a Uplay sale. So really the game cost me a ton!
When I say remove the three AI I'm talking about the ones that can expand and take other islands.. The neutral traders I always leave
Amazing, I am in the first 5 min, wondering how this game got to 100 mil... looking forward to the next one now.
Luck and a lot of influence spent on income boosting propaganda
Enjoy your videos. Play thoughts and Help has made playing Anno 1800 more easier and less stressful. Where do you get the Ratios in production chain.
Check the description for it... Just updated
You should try the shortcuts for copying (C) and placing farmfields (G)
Oh I know them... I just don't use them. I can't really tell you why heh
I would go completly different about fixing this. Bank> Public service buildings>old world> new world. I mean old and new world production chains both have important and less important stuff but fixing the whole new world would definitley not be my priority here. I mean it works fiine because of the huge savings but still.
This could be a good video idea to challange yourself : Doing save files like this, but you let it deteriorate until there is just about 1mil left and then try to fix it without propaganda.
Wow. It so much pain w/o Bright Harvest and proper trade union items.
OMG the roads on that main island... I'm no where near a perfectionist in beauty or minimalist... but seriously lol.
Imma go sell some cigars if I made too much. Who are you gonna sell em to Tak? :P The fishes? Made me chuckle, that there is so much to fix, that you forgot that there are no AIs enabled :P Great video though, love the idea and the video itself. I know I'm a bit late, but still. Great work eh?
Archie is there... You can't disable him haha
@@TakaCZcams First of all, damn quick reply! Second of all looks like I forgot about good old Archie! Whoops.
Hahaha WHY! WHY! WHY!
WHAT Moment! i laughed so hard. xD
They made trade routes and forgot to expand them. That's my guess. Lets see if that ends up being the issue.
I used to watch videos on a PDX game that all the guy did was fix problems with various builds
It's a lot fun actually... Makes the game feel different when it's not your own build
Very helpful for a new player. You went over a bunch of things I have been doing wrong or not doing. I definitely needed help understanding production chains and trade routes (not that I completely understand them yet, but at least I have an idea),
Also, about trade routes, do you ever use the charter routes? I have been using 2-3 Frigates to escort my Clippers because that b**** Ann keeps sinking them. I was thinking it would be much cheaper and worry free to have the goods transported by a neutral party despite the fees.
Charter ships still get attacked by the ai :(
Would recommend peace with her, or blockading the entrances near her pirate cove (watch out for her defense's)
As killa mentioned, charter routes can still be attacked and they are VERY slow. So basically they are just an easy target. You can start requesting cease-fires with her (what I recommend) and eventually get peace, stay at war and have a fleet to deal with her ships, or start rolling for white flags at Nate's harbor in Cape Trelawney (if you have the DLC) or at Isabella.
Why dont you use the "full load" button for the intercontinental tradingroutes?
I don't like tying up trade piers with a ship sitting there waiting to load. I prefer to have my routes in constant motion.
at 19 mins you mention about over building a farm. and not to override the farm why is that? wont it produce more stuff and less farms?
When should I use charter routes instead of trade routes?
Only for basic routes for small things.. like maybe bricks from one new world island to others to keep them supplied, or maybe a small amount of hops or something needed for some beer.
Do you have any idea how can i eliminate Bery ohara she has a biig army 🤣🤣 and is only my Ai in the game... Please advice...
Lots and lots of SOTLs and Battlecruisers.... and pray
This actualy is not as bad as he thinks. He has alot of money and healthy income which is most important. Everything else just requires some patiance and planing
This video scares me,. lol. not because the build was bad. I can't say mine would be better, jsut that you need so much room on the new world islands jsut to keep the population going, never mind all the stuff you want to ship to the old world side. I wonder if it's worth it to ship beef from the old world.
bro, u can just press c, then select the building u want to copy and then paste! then s for street, then f for farms and so on. Its a torture to see u right clicking for everything, why not utilize both ur hands. unless u have other purpose for ur the other hand lol
I'm very well aware of keyboard shortcuts but I just don't use them sorry. It saves me approximately 0.5 seconds and if that's a problem for you then I don't really have an alternative other than I guess my videos aren't for you? Haha
that dude is earning 29K I dont think that's a disaster?
Why does it have to be a financial disaster? There's more to the game than that.
The generic woman representative from the New World is hot.
edit: Yes I did make that comment on a video that is 359 days old. So what? lol
How do you people live without running -30% and -20% consumption propaganda? It literally cuts the goods you need in half. At this point I've been abusing it so long I don't know how to play the game with standard consumption levels.
I use the -20% in my games although there is an argument to be made for not using it and balancing your economy normally. I'm not using it in this particular game right here, because my entire goal is to get their economy on track with no gimmicks.
@@TakaCZcams I know I'm kind of poking fun at how good it is. Influence is tight if you can't get investors though.
Gender assume?
Haha no no I knew the person who sent it to me
