Satisfactory 1.0 Alternate Recipe Tier List

In Satisfactory 1.0, you will come across Hard Drives that when properly researched will grant you Alternate Recipes. These Alternate Recipes allow you to create products using different required materials, which can often allow you to save resources by using them. We’ve put together this Satisfactory 1.0 Alternate Recipe Tier List so you know which ones you should try to research as soon as possible.

Alternate Recipe Tier List

The goal of this Satisfactory Alternate Recipe Tier List is to help you decide which Alternate Recipes you should choose when discovering new Hard Drives. Some of these Alternate Recipes are complete game changers and will make your factories much more efficient, while others are simply not even worth using unless you have an extreme overabundance of a specific resource.

The Alternate Recipes in the S Tier are the absolute best recipes in the game and will literally streamline certain supply chains. Recipes in the A Tier are also very worthwhile and will provide you with efficient options to make certain goods more easily. The Alternate Recipes in the B Tier often provide solid alternatives that will often be worthwhile to grab, while those in the C Tier might have specific scenarios in which you will want to switch to them as opposed to their default recipe. Finally, Alternate Recipes in the D Tier aren’t really worth using unless you’re extremely short in supply on some of the default recipe resources while those in the F Tier are not worth using under any circumstance as they are often net negatives in terms of resource usage.
