hello guys and welcome to my tutorial video for the game they are billions now
there's a lot of things to consider when dealing with this realtime strategy game
which is available on early access on Steam and I want to take you through the
basics just so that you get up to speed if by no means is there going to be an
advanced video because simply you need to learn by trial and error but let me
show you what you need to do so first things first go to options if you're not
deafened by the music then just put the music down and graphics set it to
however you like one thing I recommend is setting it to WASD controls by
standard to users movement arrows to move around the map I prefer wasn t
because I'm just used to that in the like when I place you at games or
whatever I'm used to my hands being laid out that way now we're gonna start on
the basic of basic settings so let's start a new game we're gonna call it a
tutorial okay now initially you only have the dark more land available at the
start of the game I set it to easy 150 days now what this means this game
duration is how long you need to survive now you might think but doesn't that
make the game boring or doesn't make it harder having to survive a longer period
of time not really the way it works is is that just before the end of your game
duration you get set upon by hordes and hordes and hordes of zombies from every
angle so in easy mode you can effectively have 150 days to prepare for
the biggest invasion okay and then in fact the population this is how much
infected are they're generally around the map at any one time so again I'm
gonna put on the easiest because this is a tutorial beginner guide so let's start
game
so I had a lot of fun streaming this game today but I wanted to share what I
learn because I figured it would be useful for you guys now first things
first what you can do even pause time immediately by pressing space space
pauses and unpause the time or you can click that play button and you can do it
there and you need to consider your surroundings so the goal of the game is
is to keep this command center alive as long as that's alive then you're winning
basically but the problem is when the zombies come to infect the base if they
take over a house they take over a 10 or whatever then the occupants inside
themselves turn into zombies so you can it can butterfly a faith you can go from
2 zombies to like 400 in like in a matter of seconds so you have to be very
careful all you start with and this map is the command center which generates
for you is see it generates 200 money it gives you 10 workers it gives you 20
food supply for electricity and there's 10 power radius within here and so on so
first things you need to do so first we need to consider you need to look at
your resources and buttons so what I can see here for example this power bond is
saying I've got 30 power available to me so that you see the 30 available that's
how much I can build but as you build more bases on more structures you will
need more power simple as that typical realtime strategy
thing and then food you can't build basis houses whatever if
they're off on a food supply so it's not like other RTS is where you might be
lacking food if you don't have the food to begin with
you can't build them to straight away and then number of workers we have 5
workers available and the more houses you build more workers become available
and your current population is zero so your 5 workers right now you have four
Rangers one soldier and that's it now things to look around on the map all we
can see here we can see some wood we need those four trees and for hunting
food we can see some stones which we can mine
and we have our ranges so first things first start the game
send your one of your Rangers to scope the map out just not too far in cases on
these especially if you're going on a hard assay but you want to just see like
how much space you have to deal with is the terrain helping you for example here
like is it protecting you they saw chokeholds areas are very easy to defend
you can build walls and you can defend them and then this is for oil but we'll
come to that much much later ok and then here is some
iron deposits so things to consider then again let's go up out here now I've set
time to start just simply because if you don't then simply your Ranger ward
it helped be paused in time so this is why the first thing I recommend scope
out the area to see what resources have available now you need water to do
fishing is a way to get food you can also eventually build farms which you
want to keep on the green so when you're building houses I recommend you build
the houses on the barren land you see this sort of broken dried land because
you'll need the grassland later ok so first things first click the home the
command center button we want to build a house so we can get some workers ok
so let's build let's build 2 okay so let's start time so we're building two
tents this will give us workers ok so let's go back and then resources the
resources are what you need to gather food and wood and stone and stuff like
that so you could see here now we need to
gather wood so to do that a sawmill and let's put that next to the trees now if
we pause time if you take a look the ground you see this area you can only
build in this area and you can only build certain structures like these
woods sawmills you can all build them next to trees obviously
that's why they're green here but they're not green anywhere else so let's
build that there and in order to extend the area where you build you go back you
go to energiya and you need to build Tesla towers and what this allows you to
do you can see building a Tesla tower expands the range at which you can build
resources so we're going to put one test left our here now you need to consider
your money and your resources your command center is always generating more
at a slow rate you can increase the rate you gather by doing and making more
gathering points but you can't expand too widely because you need to defend
from zombie invasions so let's carry on now tutorials don't tend to be as long
as this for games but it's just because simply there's a lot of things to
consider for this game and you have to really consider long term why I won't be
able to show you a finished map for example because it'll take hours but I
just want to give you the basics so we're building a sawmill and the Tesla
tower right now then we're going to build a fisherman's cottage right here
for food and then you can also build a hunter cottage again for food and you
can see the rating now it's worth moving it around to see how much food you will
get from each point so here 14 14 15 13 15 and so on
so do you consider where you place it obviously it has to be green so we'll
put it there because it's 15 that's the highest we can get in this area ok next
so we have a sawmill we have a fisherman's cottage and we have a hunter
cottage now what you can do you can set these two patrolling cases on these
around so left-click it one of these Rangers you can zoom in it's your mouse
anytime with scroll in and scroll up and scroll out it scroll down so to move use
view left click to select it to move you right click to get to the position now
you want to set it to Patrol ideally so there's a button here Patrol
and then you left-click to select where to patrol to from where you started so
this is the star because I moved it to here I'm going to patrol there and you
can see it's patrolling back and forth and I'll simply do this with each one as
a good let's say best practice because fine we're playing on the easiest
setting right now but this will matter later like if you dislike start enjoying
the game and you want to know how to set guys to patrol ok
and typically for Rangers together we'll be able to one-shot a single zombie and
it might sound great to do that but initially you might literally it might
sound great at the beginning to have four Rangers like working together and
stuff but later on you will see you'll get invasions of dozens and thousands of
zombies so you have to defend against that ok now next again let's build a
couple more tents now the good thing is these can all be upgraded so don't worry
about placing tents or whatever down because eventually you can upgrade the
tents to stone houses and wouldn't looks like wooden houses and stone house and
so on you won't have to replace them so
wherever you place them consider that for the long-term future now ok so we
put some more tents now we can get more residents so you can see now we have 28
colonists and so on we have plenty of power available going forward now
industry wood workshop what the wood workshop allows you to do is to research
better and bigger structures so let me place one there ok and this will
research for us so we can upgrade these buildings but we're not going to be too
focused on that for now because it take a while to do that next defense you can
build up wooden towers so for example sort of wooden walls let's say I don't
want to patrol this many places it's just too many to think about at the same
time ok then I need to consider where to build some walls so I can't build walls
wherever I like without having the Tesla towers within
range so let's build one more Tesla tower right here and then we are going
to when it's finished building we're going to build a water wall right there
just so that this guy I mean we can set them to patrol anywhere to be up to be
perfectly honest so right there now what you can do as well you can
select groups of NPCs and assign them hotkeys which you can see right here so
to set them to different groups you press control and then the corresponding
number so I selected these two you left click and drag to select them then
control one which means these two are now my number one and then I'll set
these two to be my number two so two and one so you can see two one it's going to
be really important to assign teams like this in the future because you're gonna
need to know or quickly be able to get to different sides of the bases with
different teams without having to look for your people and then we could just
assign this as number three for now so it's a good idea to take advantage of
this okay now going forward we are now we've now built the structure the wooden
product the wood workshop now this will allow us to build better homes for
example or which I recommend farms so research a farm what this will do it
will take time but it will research and then give us the option to build a farm
which we're going to build on this greenery and I'll show you why in a bit
now the next thing to do while that's going ahead we are gonna build a quarry
but we don't have enough people okay so because we don't have enough people
it means whenever you see that message I'll simply you don't have enough people
then you need to build more homes simple as that get more people in and so on now
later on you might have an issue where you need to get more energy to get more
people but you need more people to build mills so you're gonna have to balance it
out and make sure you have excess at least a little bit in certain stats
before you go forward it specially pat light power they might
help you later and it's a good idea to to always have control of food so okay
so now we have extra people okay so now we've reached a certain size we can
elect a mayor so now read these supplies workers
supply plus twelve that's kind of a lot and wood resources plus thirty I don't
think that matters too much because we have a sawmill so I'm gonna choose this
mayor so there we go we have more workers supply which will be useful to
us now this farm is nearly finished so just
a little bit more to get there and complete so we can now make farms so go
back to resources farm now you can see here if you try and build on barren land
you'll get zero food if I bought it from here I'll get nothing and here I'd only
get four but here I'll get as much as sixty for food because it's all green
land so you but you want to build the farms on Greenland so there you go done
next I want to build that wall so I said goat here to the fence go toward out one
thing I recommend as well is actually build gates because otherwise your
characters might have a weird time like passing around the zone so build a gate
and then build some walls to build walls quickly you click and then you can just
drag it along you don't have to manually click it and what I seriously recommend
which you'll see in in the future when these car gangs on the invasions is
double up so when you get more wood resources which you can see right there
add a second layer add a third layer because when they're zombie hordes
attack you're going to be very happy you did a switch or even add a second gate
if you want so another one there then more here and so on so start building
the fences what you can also do is you can build towers which you can put
snipers or arches in all the ranges because the
Rangers have bows so again good idea when zombies start attacking now it
might seem like we have loads of time so it's only day six out of 150 but like I
said by a hundred and fifty you're gonna be invaded by hundreds of zombies so you
really have to consider that now next we're gonna go to cottages so 350 so
it's going to research cottages and we'll be able to upgrade these houses to
be colleges and next we want to build a quarry so what do we need we need energy
and we need wood okay so in order to get energy we need to build a mill okay so
let's build a mill we can place it right there for example it will build and it
will provide us with energy these eventually can be upgraded to advanced
mills to do more energy and you can also get power plants so other things to
consider in the future but as you can see it didn't allow me to build the
quarry because I didn't have the power necessary to do it and I have to wait
for the wood to recharge so I have to wait for the sawmill to provide the wood
I need there's nothing you can do to speed this up so it's not like kingdoms
and castles where you can chop down trees willy-nilly like if you want more
you simply have to build more sawmills if you want it to come in quicker so for
example I could build another sawmill let's build one right there okay well
give me another six wood per tick which will be very useful which means I can
build structures quickly the wood will fill up quicker now at the beginning of
the game you have a very limited amount of how much of each resource you can
hold so the resources in the game oil iron stone wood and gold later on you
can start building warehouses which increase your capacity so you want to
build those as soon as you can essentially now we've now got the
ability to make cottages so what you can do you can select the tents and you can
upgrade to a cottage to do that it says we need 90 gold twelve wood to energy
and four foods okay so let's upgrade now what you can
do if you want to search all of them without like having to do anything else
just double click one of them and it will select all of the same type so they
go it's selected all eight if on upgrade all eight then you could click this bar
and I walk wait although eight of them that it can afford to colleges we don't
have enough wood so when the wood recharge is then this will light up
again and we can build another one to a cottage
so you see upgrade so once they were upgraded then they'll have more
residents and so on and you can do this one more time when you get the stone
production and you want it you can then make these into stone houses okay so so
far so good right we seem to be okay but you have to be really really wary of
your defenses so look so for example I can build here a I can build a couple of
towers so let me build let me build two okay so two towers what you can do with
the towers you've put arches in them which is helpful or what I really
recommend later on is getting snipers so you can select the wood production
workshop and you can research snipers so see that's now researching them but in
order to train snipers you need to build a command center to do that we need 20
stone and yeah so we're missing 20 start to get stones we need to build a quarry
and again we're short on wood so but we're about to get thirty wood if you
look at the bottom right of the screen so let's take a look now something to
consider let me quickly move my camera is right
here the bottom the bottom left you should really consider the screen this
mini-map because this will give you a clue about where the zombies are so we
can see some red right there which means there's zombie there's a
zombie right there there's a couple of zombies even moving in so we're gonna
set our people there just in case a zombies come any closer to defend our
people because they can easily take us out
so keep an eye on the mini-map if any zombies try to sneak in early okay now
like I said we're in it for the long term so we really have to get our
defenses up ASAP so we still need our stone so let us now we can make a quarry
so you can see here we can get two stone here or free or six sorry five so make
sure you put it in a point where you get the biggest amount so here we go five it
will build a quarry which will give us five stones a tick so why not and like I
said you have to really make sure that you we could probably build another farm
here but 26 that that's a problem because there's only so much green land
here so let's see another farm here this will give us 28 food it's just because
while we're upgrading everything we want to make sure we have enough food simple
as that now again to upgrade the houses we need plenty of woods so wood is
coming in so we can now upgrade this house and I would recommend upgrading
these houses as you go along rather than building dozens and dozens of tents
because space will be tight later on that's for sure
the more you expand okay now we want to build a command center so when we have
20 stones and 20 wood then we'll build this compare soldier Center so let's
just keep an eye out on where we are so the stones will start coming in in a
second so you'll see here we've got five stone so when we have twenty will build
the command center we can start training up military personnel now before this
resource gets full before any of them get full recommend you spend it so let's
upgrade another house remember to upgrade them all just double click which
ever type and then just click the button and it will upgrade as many as it can
afford to upgrade so I can't afford to upgrade this one so in order to upgrade
now it can okay so now we've upgraded all of our tents or it's in the process
of upgrading all of our tents to colleges which is great next let's do
research for another thing so now we can get a great ballista these are really
good these ballistas I highly recommend that
you research those quickly what they are simply they are automated Archer towers
which will just fire massive arrows at the zombies and pretty much one shot
them one zombie at a time and they also can be upgraded later on in the game
so it is a point to really consider your resources as you go along now looking
forward how many workers do we have spare ok workers we have 21 available
workers so that's not a problem for now we have plenty so we don't need to build
more houses yet now we want to get more we have plenty of food as well
69 available food so we have loads of food so we're in a good place wood is
capped so that's good and then stone is coming in at a decent pace but we could
probably get more so let's build another ok we don't need to build a Tesla Tower
here thankfully because we're already within that range so let's build a Tesla
tower here to expand this way and let's build another mill or another quarry
right here so quarry as c4 is for the maximum yes 4 is the maximum so I
spilled it here okay so we can now make great ballistas so let me show you that
go to military now to make a great ballista we need more energy so you see
so let's go back and let's make another mill so where should we put the mill we
can put the mill anywhere that is available okay let's pour another milk
because we're running out of power these can eventually be operated to be
advance mills and they generate more power each now the next thing we could
build is the stone quarry if we've won so let's research the stone workshop
which will allow us to build stone structures now the market is also very
useful so says here can buy us all resources automatically sells excess
resources produced reduce food needs of surrounding dwellings defense barriers
and so on so let's let's make a market now we'll try put the market there so it
affects all the houses which will be really useful now it will take a while
to do that so go back command center let's see can we should we build some
other defense here maybe to try and funnel the zombies around now one thing
we find is in this game is that if they're zombies attack from this way and
there's a wall here they're not gonna automatically run
around and attack from another angle they're just gonna keep smashing their
way through their zombies are mindless so you will have to not only defend but
put arches in the towers now one thing I really recommend is put snipers in the
towers or build great ballistas so let me show you how powerful the great
ballista is so let's put one here so you can see the range of the great ballista
fact let's put it there so it covers more of the let's put it there so if any
zombie is within that range it will automatically fire a big arrow at them
okay next Soldiers Center this is really useful because this is what we need to
use to train soldiers or snipers or whatever so let's make one now okay now
we've already researched snipers thankfully that's already an option to
us with the gold we've generated now in order to increase gold income you can
actually I said build the markets or access resources or sold or you can
actually find gold like just started around the map but we'll worry about
that another time or if you destroy enemy bases and so on because there is
actually towns controlled by the zombies in this game now we're on day 13 we
really have to consider our future you know okay so next stone workshop let's
get it done okay so it's still building the soldier
Center so that's nearly done next what can we build what do we need so workers
we have two available workers so it might be worth seeing if we can build
some more cottages so when we have 120 we're gonna build another cottage so we
have more workers because look we can't make now oh okay now we also need iron
so by hovering over when something is grayed out you obviously can't make it
but it will tell you what you need so we need money which is always coming in but
we also need iron so let's see if we can find an iron deposit there's one right
there so we have to build a quarry on the iron now if you put the quarry
between two resources like we see here stone and iron it will it will mine both
which is really useful so but here again we're still short on workers so this can
be a problem later on so let's build two more cottages and I would recommend
building the best house available to you straight away rather than building a
cheap house and upgrading yes because I'll be useful and I am intending to
upgrade all of these houses to be stone houses when I have the option to do it
okay so we're nearly done with this basic tutorial I just want to let you
understand the really how to get things started and what to consider for the
future now the houses are nearly done okay now we still need the iron so let
us build and get another quarry we could place it here we see that'll give us
four stone or two iron but we're not within range of a tesla tower so again
tesla tower and then we can increase the range of the the base so once that's
bill we can do a quarry right there to start gang iron now these maps are rng
so sometimes I'll be placed in a really good way they'll really defend you
they'll give you lots of resources and so on other times it'll be hindrance to
you so and it's not really anything you can do about that but keep an eye on the
mini-map at all times by on the bottom left of the screen to make sure that
everything is good now let's go back and let's see if we
can make the quarry so let's put that there so you see here who okay so look
we can get free iron ore forced on so do like I said do get in the habit of
moving it around to make sure you get the most bang for your buck okay
so we're building one here to get iron and so on so okay so the stone workshop
finished okay so let's do a lookout tower next and then we can finish off
with a snake trap now you can never demolish these buildings the workshops
because you might think you know oh well I finished with the wood workshop why
not have just a monitoring post on one in this place there isn't an option to
demolish it simple as that so once you built it it's there for life and but
it's a good idea to start the research as quickly as you can
now we can see I'm capped out on my stone now and my wood so what you can do
you can build like I said warehouses but again we need more workers so we're
always short on workers which is really overtaking so let's build some more
cottages let's build one here one here one there one there and so on so we have
four more cottages on the way so we can get enough workers and we can build a
warehouse and then that will increase the maximum capacity of resources we can
hold now I am very wary of the fact that I don't have any defense here in this
whole section now you should be careful with this because it literally takes it
can take one zombie to convert your entire base so you really have to be
careful there let's put that soldier here
okay and if anything as well okay so all the cottages are completed we have
enough workers we have enough resources but we need gold so once we have 300
gold we'll get our first sniper now snipers can kill one zombie per shot one
state one shot zombies of a certain type later on in the game you might see more
powerful zombies but most of the time at the beginning you'll only see their
zombies that they can one-shot so let's build a site for now so to build a
sniper you simply select the commands and see what's available SUSE right now
we have sniper soldier and Ranger we learn sniper because it was available to
us from the woodwork shop but sometimes mayor's can be elected which also give
you the option to have a sniper if you're lucky okay and then last but not
least NIC trap and that will be all the resources okay so now we have a sniper
right there to assign him to a tower you simply left-click him and then
right-click the tower when there's that simple he'll run over to the tower
you'll see he's on the tower now and so any zombie that comes within range of
the tower he will just want app so and you can have more than one sniper per
tower okay so I'm fairly happy about this half of the map but I am a bit
concerned about here and here so I need to increase my defense and here as well
to be honest I've got many choke points but they say at the same time I don't
want to become too claustrophobic because I do need to expand if I want to
get enough resources to defend against the final attack then I will need the
space to do it now let us build the stone workshop it's an industry and
trade Sun workshop I need 20 energy and a thousand gold so let's build okay
zombies where are they
okay oh crap so you see now because the zombies are already overtaking the base
and they're destroying all the buildings and I didn't have defect I said I was
concerned about defense here and here each time the zombies the story house
they multiply and you can see it's already got a valve hand and sorry to
say I've lost and this will happen to you a lot
once the middle base is destroyed game over so because I was concerned about
the east and the south and I did nothing about it I lost the game simple as that
so you really have to make sure that you really consider all your defenses and so
on later on when you get more resources and your source secure in your base and
so on then it is your it'll be easier for you to deflect masses of these
zombies but that was only a couple of zombies later on you'll have dozens then
hundreds so you really have to consider it and I think that was actually a
perfect way to end this tutorial video you will die a lot of times you do need
to like practice and go forward but I hope I've showed you the basics of how
this game works things to consider things to think about and so on so
anyway guys if you liked the video remember to give it a thumbs up and also
as subscribe I'll make more guides as I go along
I'll try make more guides and more tutorials on my channel because I think
that's what people like the most anyway guys if I do find more advanced
techniques later on for more harder difficulty sayings then I will consider
doing that let me know if you played this game if you what you think of it
and so on do you like realtime strategy games let me know in the comments down
below otherwise that's it thank you and have a good day bye bye
you
