Astroneer – Planets Guide
Early Game Stage
So, you’ve only landed on some foreign planet. The planet’s mention is “Terran“, but you lot don’t direct hold to travel along upwards amongst that yet. Anyway your base of operations has a landing pad. Look at the terminal together with concur “Q”. You volition hitting the push together with confirm it. The startup bundle should straightaway live on the pad. Unpack the large platform, together with position the medium printer on it. Now what you lot desire to impress is (ironically) a minor printer, a large platform, together with a query lab. You volition demand resources called, “Resin” together with “Compound”. There are ordinarily some around your base of operations to start out with. Press “E” to accept out your terrain tool to mine them. You should also brand a canister (made from resin inwards your backpack) to concur soil. That is what you lot role to range terrain from. More information is inwards the tutorial. Attach the canister to your terrain tool, together with you lot volition live set. Once you lot direct hold all of your base of operations components laid up, you lot should brand something called “Tether Bundles”. Tethers are similar ability lines (or oxygen lines?). They render you lot air together with unloosen energy when attached to your base, together with each other. Anyway, you lot may detect yourself broke equally a joke inwards “Bytes”. Bytes are similar the currency inwards ASTRONEER. If you lot direct hold enough, you lot volition live able to unlock things, such equally (in order) things you lot tin brand inwards your pack, amongst a minor printer, amongst a medium printer, together with a vehicle bay. Your principal focus straightaway is to detect things to research. You tin detect them yesteryear earthworks upwards institute life, including enemies! Go into a cave, together with endeavour to detect some enemies.
Once you lot direct hold 250 Bytes, purchase a Smelting Furnace. (You mightiness also desire to brand beacons together with travel lights) After that, nosotros volition motion on to the Mid game stage.
Mid Game Stage
Now, nosotros are entering mid game stage. This is the fourth dimension when you lot mightiness live facing some metaphorical craters. Such as, running out of storage, direly inwards demand of resources, together with perhaps ability shortages. Let’s solve ability shortages first. You tin brand a bunch of generators, but I wouldn’t. I would claw all of the platforms upwards to each other, together with the base. Then position a generator/solar panel/wind turbine on the holders higher upwards the base’s ability cords. And employment solved! (For now). Next, since you lot direct hold a shipload of resources, nosotros volition solve the storage issue. First brand a Large Platform B. Not a Medium platform B. This volition require three resin. Then, amongst your Small Printer, impress four medium storages, if you lot can. Place them all on the platform, together with you lot are set! Now you lot direct hold a 32 particular external storage platform. This also keeps them from blowing away inwards a sandstorm. Now you lot in all likelihood burned your items downwardly only to brand these, then it is the perfect fourth dimension to become caving. To larn to all the goodies, you lot volition direct hold to become downwardly to the “green zone”.
You mightiness detect some opened upwards holes that already atomic number 82 downwardly to one…from a corking height. Not a problem!
Just dig a real gradual slope, (about to where you lot tin walk upwards it) together with in i lawsuit you lot hitting green, dig sideways towards the direction of the cavern. What you lot are looking for, is Laterite. Laterite is aluminum ore. Aluminum is inwards a lot crafting recipes for the adjacent tier. Possibly what you lot encounter inwards your query computer, nether the Medium Printer Icon. You volition also encounter that at that topographic point are these spiky mushrooms around. These are called “Spikers”.
They tin live real dangerous, peculiarly if you lot give-up the ghost adjacent to them, because they larn inwards hard to larn to your dead body. Anyway, straightaway you lot direct hold all these items to safely position away inwards your storage platform. Finally, nosotros tin larn to i of the most fun parts of the game. The vehicles. If you lot don’t direct hold i already, brand a Vehicle Bay from three compound. Once hooked upwards to a platform together with a ability source, if I am right, you lot volition desire to smelt vii Laterite inwards your smelting furnace. And if you lot direct hold some more, you lot tin brand a buggy/rover later! Now, range a minor shuttle. But why non a buggy you lot ask? Because a shuttle volition brand your life easier for now. Now brand two solid fuel thrusters. Why 2? The solid fuel thruster is a consumable. It has a i fourth dimension role for a trip to a planet. So if you lot exit amongst one, you lot volition live stranded on some other planet…forever. Anyway in i lawsuit you lot direct hold your topographic point in, together with you lot direct hold a consummate shuttle, you lot volition demand to laid upwards earlier you lot go, Eager Mc Beaver.
Tethers: three or four tether bundles volition do.
Packed Thruster: Of course!
Generator: Just one
Organic: Optional
Packed Medium platform A: What?
Some Free Space: Obviously.
Now you lot direct hold all that inwards your backpack. Good Luck!
Late Game Stage
You should know the drill yesteryear now. It is fourth dimension to become exploring! Once you lot nail off, you lot volition start circling around your abode planet, Terran. This is truly the landing sequence. To exit orbit, press Z or X. This volition activate a planet alternative sequence that reminds me of the “Mario Galaxy” galaxy alternative for some reason. The planets inwards the terminal alpha range are Terran, Barren (Terran’s moon), Exotic, Arid, Radiated, together with Tundra. Each planet has a unlike setting. Terran, is similar Earth. It is the safest house you lot direct hold inwards the solar system. Barren, reminds me of Mars. It’s an orangish Moon amongst lots of broad opened upwards dunes. The days together with nights travel yesteryear fast (It’s a Moon after all), then solar panels travel best here. Exotic, reminds me of a planet on Metroid Prime. It has unsafe industrial plant that you lot would detect inwards caves, on the surface! Arid, is pretty much a desert. It fifty-fifty has tumbleweeds that wound you. Radiated reminds me of Fallout. The atmosphere is a greenish color, together with it has creepy inhabitants called “worms”. And they are non fun to give-up the ghost from. And Tundra ever reminds me of a scene on the movie, “Madagascar”, when the penguins larn inwards to Antarctica.
Even if the planets audio similar they direct hold no hollo for inwards landing on, they truly direct hold corking materials there. Some that you lot can’t fifty-fifty detect on Terran. Sadly, if you lot are on a multiplayer server, you lot mightiness already direct hold some pranks inwards hear involving some of the planets’ settings. But they are going to direct hold to wait. I would recommend landing on the moon, Barren. Beware, Barren has a higher difficulty setting, than Terran. This is because they desire to travel along you lot engaged, instead of your commons hum drum plans. Now, when you lot state on Barren, become ahead together with take your used thruster, together with supplant it amongst the fresh i inwards your backpack. Why did nosotros direct hold to come upwards hither first? Because Laterite is to a greater extent than mutual here. In fact you lot mightiness fifty-fifty detect some on the surface! Grab equally much equally you lot can. Also, what you lot desire to await out for, is a rare resource, called Wolframite. Wolframite is some other ore, the ore of Tungsten. Sound familiar? What you lot mightiness direct hold seen inwards the computer, are base of operations components that require Tungsten, together with something called Tungsten Carbide. Tungsten Carbide is a fusion resource. This is where it gets interesting. You tin fuse sure enough materials inwards a Chemistry Lab, to cast a novel human being made material. For example:
Tungsten+Carbon=Tungsten Carbide
Compund+Carbon=Plastic
Once you lot intend you lot are set, you lot tin render abode to Terran. But earlier you lot do, house a Beacon downwardly adjacent to where you lot state on a novel planet. This volition aid you lot travel along runway of where you lot direct hold been. You could also house beacons on you, or your car. So if you lot die, you lot tin detect them easily.
