This isn't TF2.

I don't think they need a free weekend, just a massive update. I'm not sure how Steam advertising works, but I think they could get some publicity through it for a big update.
Always found the Zoltan cruiser difficult to use. Nevertheless, I gave it another chance.
Before the final sector:
[t]http://puu.sh/1kgl4[/t]
The Rebel flagship barely dented it in the first phase, much to my surprise. I had maxed out shielding and evasion, the basic cloaking was handy too.
[t]http://puu.sh/1kgCn[/t]
I reached the final phase having taken no damage from the second one. This is when things got a little more desperate- the superweapon was no problem but I did not anticipate the boarding teams. Still. This was such a satisfying sight.

Interesting that the ship I find hardest to use is the one that finally let me beat the flagship.
[QUOTE=Neo Kabuto;38236123]It would still have a lot of players if they kept adding onto it. Did they ever announce plans for more updates that add content instead of just bugfixes?[/QUOTE]

The thing is; who knows if the fanbase can wait for those few months for update on whether or not we're going to receive an actual update, nonetheless the many months it'll take to actually get those game updates. Maybe someone will get a breakthrough with modding, but I'm doubtful this game will have a long lifespan.
[QUOTE=krail9;38241037]someone on reddit asked the devs[/QUOTE]
I sent the devs an email asking about future updates and stuff as well and got a similar response.
[quote]We hope to add content eventually but there are a variety of things we can be working on in the immediate future and still are in the process of determining a plan.[/quote]
Fuck, this game sure knows how to make you rage. I'm smooth-sailing on normal, with a decent, strong, formidable ship, and most enemies I come up against are pretty weak, and can't handle me (like the ladies). Then boom, here comes a battle that is leagues above my skill level. A fucking rebel ship that has 2 Anti-ship drones (fucking things) that keep setting fire to all my rooms, and it kept firing missiles and lasers, so my O2 room, Medbay, Shield Room, Weapons Room and Door Room got destroyed, and there are fires all over the fucking place, and I can't extinguish them by opening airlocks because airlocks systems are down.
So yeah, I got fucked. It came out of nowhere, and I'm so angry.
I almost beat the game on east, when I accidentally let eh flagship take the star-base because I misunderstood how the thing worked. I probably wouldn't have won though, because I hadn't managed to find any stronger weapons after a strong early start.

What the fucking fuck?
Im going to forget about this game next month.
If you want some new content, try mods. There are already managers out to make installing mods easy.
From what I've seen, making your own mods is fairly simple, so you could always try your hand at modding the game yourself.
How do I mod the game? I want to make a Star Trek Total-Conversion.

don't act so entitled... forget about the game if you must - when/if new content comes out, remember it again and have fun

I don't mean to act entitled or anything. I mean, I got more than my $10 worth out of this game without a doubt, it's just the way they talk about any possible future updates that sets me off.

I don't know about other people, but I always have a hard time getting back into things after not playing for a while.
So I've finally got to the crystal sector and then I found this in an event:
[T]http://puu.sh/1lZLe[/T]
It worked but it looked like a regular laser on the ship and it doesn't have an icon.
Goddamnit, finally got the crystal guy and accidentally blew him up on an enemy ship with that automatic artillery laser.

That's OK. You never would have found the Rock Homeworlds with him, and even if you did you would never have found the event which would unlock the ship. So no worries! :v:

That's apparently a known glitch. You're never supposed to see that weapon ever.

After basically killing half the galaxy 10 times over and leaving hundreds of ships derelict I have finally gotten the Mantis ship.
My crew of Rock, Crystal, and Bug are now going to go shove our space fist up the Rebel Flagships figurative asshole.
welp ship's dead disregard everything previously said about figurative assholes.

Supposedly it's the weapon that fires upon triggering the crystal vengeance augmentation.
This is actually one of the better stategyish game of this year. It's addicting, fun, frustrating, and challenging. Do not regret buying it.
I got the "Reliable Autopilot" achievement a while ago and just noticed the reference.

Also, Sector 2. Random encounters up the ass with loot.

WHY CAN'T I HOLD ALL THESE BEAMS
I was fighting an Engi Ship and I couldn't hit it because I had the Zoltan ship that only had a beam and missiles. It had 3 shields so I wasn't getting through with the beam and 2 defense drones that constantly blew my rockets up.
Lucky me, they didn't have the firepower to break through my zoltan shield and the 4 usual shields.
I had to board them, and sent 2 mantis and then a rockman.
So anyway it all goes well, the engi can't stop my attackers and they constantly retreat. I break the drone system and my rockets begin dealing hefty damage to the ship. The last missile is about to his and then I realise something.
I couldn't save everyone of my crew on the enemy ship.
I made the decision of saving the 2 mantis, as I'm sure I'll need boarders again.
Jones, the Rockman, however did not survive, and he went down fighting.
Edit:
Absolute disaster. We were boarded by Mantis and I opened the airlocks.
The twats blew my oxygen and a mantis and 2 Zoltan of mine died trying to repair it.
One of those Zoltan was the pilot as well, so I just sunk from a strong 8 man crew down to a 4 man crew.

This game is so cruel sometimes.
And then other times you get 4 Burst Laser MkII's.
Well I just got super lucky.
I had to jump away from the flagship because my entire plan went to hell and I basically had no way that I could (at the time) win. So I decided "fuck it" and just spammed missiles.
Through some miracle I managed to disable their drone bay and set it on fire.
It took a while but eventually i battered the second stage.
I only had 8 hull to spare with a very low chance of victory.
And I won. I got super lucky. I managed to disable his missiles and his little laser weapon couldn't blow down my shields enough. The only problem was that he had that superweapon where it shoots like 1000 lasers and that did a bit of damage.
Eventually, I managed to batter his ship with missiles to the point of destruction, at only 5 hull.
The game is a dick but the odds can turn in your favour at any second and when they do it's so good.

From what i hear, breaking the teleporter has an effect on the super-weapon.
all this game needs is a ship builder and an in-game browser to download other player's ship's they made
