[QUOTE=C0MMUNIZT;37706501]Updates on the flagship. [t]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/1136287903757646663/3685F04B532BB00E173D00565D82E1745D5CCB09/[/t][/QUOTE] It seems it's not pixel perfect and logo is stretched. I guess that is in-progress/beta/etc?
Evasion is driving me nuts in this game it's really REALLY shit when you're firing at the other ship and he's firing at you and it's just a missfest, with the occasional laser hitting shields. if there was a mod that removed it, I'd download it in a second
[QUOTE=Cheeseist;37705262] also does this fucking shit ever have a different outcome. Every time i try to side with him its always a trap and when i do try to sell him the fire lights up in his eyes and kills someone. I only ever got to sell him once but i never keep him as a crewmember [img]http://imageshack.us/a/img193/4975/26279019.png[/img][/QUOTE] The person doesnt betray you, and joins your crew if you destroy the ship they came from [editline]x[/editline] [QUOTE=Globex;37706314]I killed all of the crew members on the rebel flagship. Instead of winning the flagship suddenly has an AI and self-repair capability. Now I am stuck with an oxygen-less flagship I can't board and with self-repairing systems. GUESS WHO GOT DESTROYED?[/QUOTE] Yeah that happened to me too. Ideally, try killing everyone except for one person
[QUOTE=maqzek;37706564]It seems it's not pixel perfect and logo is stretched. I guess that is in-progress/beta/etc?[/QUOTE] Yeh, waiting for Jack to send me the fixed version.
I finally made it to the second stage of the flagship earlier. I was fully raping it, with 3 drones (Anti-Ship I, Anti-Ship II, Beam I), two ions against it, and 3 shield bars. Then the flagship's drones happened. I didn't survive past the second power fluctuation.
In stage two and three of the flagship, cloaking is your friend.
I hope they get proper mod tools out some time. Creating new ships would be the most obvious thing, but I'd like to see some way to add new events and stuff too... [editline]17th September 2012[/editline] [url=https://dl.dropbox.com/u/38977466/roguelikes/index.htm]*cough*[/url]

What would be cool is if they add the ability to switch between decks and a ui to go with it. Maybe even the possibility of a fuckton of crew for the engine/weapons/shields room which is split into different sections that you have a guy working on.

In which case congratulations, you just made dwarf fortress in space.
i kinda wish my extra crew members had something to do besides standing around in rooms waiting for inevitable repairs
[QUOTE=NomadicNinja;37707729]i kinda wish my extra crew members had something to do besides standing around in rooms waiting for inevitable repairs[/QUOTE] Sure, but they're still mighty useful in any number of situations. More crewmen = more reliability.
[QUOTE=goon165;37707710]Shit would litterially need to stop everytime something happened. In which case congratulations, you just made dwarf fortress in space.[/QUOTE] That's how I play anyways?
Finally got the rockmen cruiser, gave the flagship a run for it's money until it got fed up with me and swatted me out of the sky. The no rebel fleet mod is brilliant by the way, I love just flying around exploring and upgrading. Lets me experiment with different builds.
Trying out the Engi ship, on my second jump I ended up near a star and kept getting hit by solar flares. The first 2 things they took out were weapons and drone control, I lasted about 10 seconds after that. Awesome game.

[QUOTE=No_0ne;37708298]I'm throwing money at the screen but nothing is happening[/QUOTE] Well "Dwarf Fortress in space" exists I believe. Aurora I think it was called. Someone else here probably knows more than I. I never played it.

I have been equipping my kestral with teleport bombs and burst lasers, been working better than any other strategy so far. I still can't get my score over 1100 or so though.
[QUOTE=_Kent_;37708761]I have been equipping my kestral with teleport bombs and burst lasers, been working better than any other strategy so far. I still can't get my score over 1100 or so though.[/QUOTE] I love the satisfaction of kitting your ship with like three 3 shot burst lasers, and firing them all at once.

[QUOTE=cheesedelux;37709381]Well there's this: [url]http://www.starshipcorporation.com/[/url] It's pretty different from FTL, but oh man.[/QUOTE] Ohgod when does this come out?
Oh man I love this run. Got to Zoltan homeworlds in sector 7 (Farthest I've ever gotten), got the peace quest, used my second to last fuel to jump to the quest marker, unlocked the Zoltan cruiser... next jump, 6 fuel for 12 scrap. :v: I'm probably going to die within the next 5 minutes, but I love everything right now.
Rock sector. Ran out of fuel, 1 crew member left. Waited until the rock patrol comes to kill me, only to actually beat their elite fighter, at the cost of most of my ship being on fire. I wanted to open the airlocks, but the doors were broken. I sent my one guy through the fire to fix the doors, and then opened all of them, including the airlocks, at the same time. At around 5% oxygen I closed them, and all of the fire was gone. So after repairing every station, I am at the exact same position, only out of missiles. I'm pretty fucked. Edit: this one has an intruder. R.I.P
Did I say 5 minutes? I meant 30 seconds. Automated ship, three shields, two beam drones, an ion cannon... [img]http://puu.sh/16g4D[/img]
Can anyone be so kind to PM me a portable version of the game? (aka install the game somewhere and put all the files in a RAR) Installing games on this PC promts a "Enter admin password" screen which i obviously dont have. I bought the game, go to my Steam profile if you wanna know.
