You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, I'm telling you why. FICSMAS is coming to town
~ ADA

FICS⁕MAS was a seasonal holiday-themed in-game event.

  1. The Initial 2020 season lasted from Dec 1, 2020 to Jan 18, 2021.
  2. The 2021 season spanned from Dec 1, 2021 to Jan 18, 2022.
  3. The 2022 season spanning Dec 1, 2022 to Jan 18 2023.
    • NOTE: Due to work done on Update 7 the FICSMAS 2022 Seasonal Event looked and operated exactly like the FICSMAS 2021 Seasonal Event [1]

In each of the above FICSMAS Seasonal Events several exclusive items and buildings were available which remained even after the event ended.

Participating[]

The event was set to be enabled by default the first time the game was updated to Patch 0.3.7, both in the early access and experimental branches. It could be disabled entirely in the main menu (not the in-game pause menu) by ticking the 'Disable Seasonal Events' option under 'Gameplay' settings.

After the event ended (Jan 18, 2021[2] and Jan 18, 2022[3]), FICSMAS items and buildings remained in the world, but FICSMAS Gift Trees stopped producing FICSMAS Gifts. Production buildings kept their recipes, but the recipes could no longer be selected. The build menu FICS⁕MAS category, HUB Calendar, and MAM research chain disappeared, which meant no more FICSMAS buildings could be built.

FICSMAS Calendar[]

FICSMAS 2020 Advent Calendar A secret animation seen when opening fields in the calendar.

While the event was active, a Satisfactory-themed advent calendar could be found to the right of the HUB Terminal. This calendar gave access to a new gift each day from December 1 to December 25. Interacting E with the Calendar brought up a poster featuring a mini puzzle game. In this game, the pioneer had to look for a hidden number corresponding to the day of the month. By clicking that number, one or more items would pop up. Those items could then be collected into the pioneer's inventory by dragging or Shift-clicking the pop-up. If a pioneer clicked a number that corresponded to a future date, nothing would happen, which meant the pioneer could only collect items from the current or previous days.

If a pioneer could not find a specific number, they could enter the desired number at the bottom right of the calendar and click a 'get hint' button to highlight that number.

During the 2021 season, the calendar had a different design than it did during the 2020 season.

During the 2022 season, the calendar had the same design as it did in the 2021 season (due to work on Update 7).

Gifts[]

During the 2021 and 2022 seasons, the rewards for all of the days were randomized, except for the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 10th, 11th, 24th, and 25th of December:

Notes:

  1. Basic FICSMAS Skins consume one FICSMAS Gift per use to reskin Conveyor Belts and Pipelines. From Belt Mk.1 to Mk.5 the patterns are replaced as follows:
    • Conveyor Belt - Mk 1 - Brown FICS⁕MAS Paper with Tape.
    • Conveyor Belt - Mk 2 - Grey with White Snowflakes.
    • Conveyor Belt - MK 3 - Red/Green/White Striped Brown Wrapping Paper.
    • Conveyor Belt - Mk 4 - Dark Green with White FICS⁕MAS Trees.
    • Conveyor Belt - Mk 5 - Grey with Gold Stars (hard to see due to speed).
    • Pipeline - Mk 1 - White with Red Stripes Candy Cane.
    • Pipeline - Mk 2 - White with Red Stripes Candy Cane Plus Green Highlights.
  2. Premium FICSMAS Skins consume one FICSMAS Wonder Star per use for Vehicle reskin. The Vehicle Skin is replaced as follows:
    • Standard Factory Cart - Red Christmas Wrapping with White Stars and Candy Cane Piping with Green Highlight on left side along with additional various Gold Metal Body Trimmings.
    • Truck - Chocolate body, chocolate wheels along with Gingerbread body parts all accented with White / Pink Frosting and Red / Green Candies.
    • Drone - White body with Red / Green / Gold Highlights. Red Christmas Wrapping with White Stars is used around fan blades and in a strip across body. Green Wrapping with White Stars plus White Zig-Zags is used in a strip across the body.
  3. Premium FICSMAS Skins are currently not available for Golden Factory Cart, Tractor, and Explorer.

For all other days, the sequence is shuffled, although it's guaranteed to get all the items below eventually:

Rewards from missed previous days can be collected, while those from upcoming days cannot. When a reward is collected, its number changed to bright white from its varied colored theme. This is different from 2020 where the number changed from pale white to a gold color.

The calendar included a 'tip' button at the bottom right which highlights the number which input into its search bar.

Giant FICSMAS Gifts[]

While the event was active, Giant FICSMAS Gifts appear from the sky at random intervals, but only within 300 meters of the player. They fall slowly with parachutes and will land on the first solid object in contact, shaking the screen and with a pop effect. They can be interacted E with to collect FICSMAS Gifts. If they are hard to access such as on top of a tree or a cliff, using Ladders is one of the easiest methods.

Each of them sized between 4 × 4 × 3 m to 12 × 12 × 7 m. The size of the box corresponds to the amount of FICSMAS gifts inside. The Giant Gifts has a collision box that did not affect vehicles but could affect factory construction to a certain degree, so it was advised to pick them up, which yields between five (5) to 40 FICSMAS Gifts.

They had a spawn limit, and picking them up would enable more gift boxes to be dispensed. When picking up a gift, there was a small chance that ADA would say one of the following lines:

  • "Merry Christmas"
  • "Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas"
  • "Happy holidays. Now get back to work" (Referenced to a meme, source unknown)
  • "Here's a present. It's Iron bars"
  • "Merry Christmas you filthy animal". (Referenced to Home Alone)

Giant FICSMAS Gifts are not saved along the session data (they are not included in the save file).

MAM Research[]

A new research tree called 'FICSMAS Holiday Event' is available exclusively during the event, which can be unlocked in MAM:

The entire research tree requires only Tier 3 tech - only Constructors, Assemblers, Smelters and Foundries were required to automate all the FICSMAS parts (they cannot be crafted at Craft Bench). The number of contents available are locked behind certain key items, which could only be obtainable by scheduled daily rewards. For example, the first key item, a Red FICSMAS Ornament, is required for further researches down the tree.

Notes:

  1. Patch 0.5.1.3 Removed “Snow Mittens” Recipe and ability to make “Snowball Pile” Equipment for FICSMAS 2021

Parts[]

Obtaining[]

Unlocking[]

All items were unlocked via the FICSMAS Research chain in the MAM MAM.

The FICSMAS Gift Tree, once unlocked, could be used to automate FICSMAS Gift production. Conveyor Belts were required to bring out the produced gifts, as the tree itself could not be interacted with.

Crafting[]

No FICSMAS items could be crafted by hand, all had to be automated in a machine.

Giant FICSMAS Tree[]

The Giant FICSMAS Tree came with no decoration by default, where each upgrade research adds decorations onto it. The first upgrade adds Candy Canes. The second upgrade added Red, Blue, and Copper ornaments, along with the FICSMAS power light. The third upgrade adds Iron ornaments and colorful gift boxes to the tree. The final upgrade adds a decorative star at the tip of the tree.

Despite its description, multiple Giant FICSMAS Trees could be built.

Default entities with seasonal differences[]

  • The top three screens inside of The HUB changed to display a FICSMAS banner. A FICSMAS Calendar is added beside the HUB Terminal. The rocket on the Launch Pod button is changed into a gift-filled sleigh.
  • The Coupon icon on the AWESOME Shop took on a new festive appearance, and the spinning CheckIt mascot on the top donned a hat.
  • Power Pole and its variants got wreaths attached.
  • Lizard Doggos got a red nose and antlers.
  • Jump Pads played Jingle Bells when used in succession.
  • Packagers sprayed gift boxes, candy cane, ring, and sparkle particles instead of their usual fluid droplets while operating.
  • Factory Carts took on a red-and-white snowflake pattern gift wrap color scheme.
  • Factory Carts sirens are replaced with festive music.
  • Pioneers were given a Santa hat, which could be seen via 3rd person view (such as using a vehicle / Hyper Tube).

Trivia[]

  • Dylan made the snowballs and Tree.[4][5]
  • When opening the daily reward from the Advent calendar, there was a small chance in which the small door would swing downward instead of sliding down.

Year 2020[]

For year 2020, the rewards for all of the days were randomized, except for the 1st, 4th, 5th, 11th, and the 25th of December:

For all other days, the sequence was shuffled, although it was guaranteed to get all the items below eventually:
