[QUOTE=smurfy;37681358]Everything is going great, then suddenly all of your shit gets trashed in one battle Every time[/QUOTE] Very often in cheap ways (3 shield or one of those fucking green ones that block missiles, or four burst blasters that fuck all of my systems up in a single turn) Also when you have enough scrap you NEVER find a store that sells the shit you want

Completely worthless when you're up against any guy with a drone that shoots them down.
Never heard about this until a guy I'm subscribed to comes back from like a month hiatus to post a bunch of videos of this game. Apparently it's (somewhat) popular how did this go completely under my radar what did I miss? And more importantly is this any good? A guy I'm friends with on Steam already put up a review about it saying it sucks.
[QUOTE=ZestyLemons;37681690]Fuck missiles, they're the worst thing ever. Completely worthless when you're up against any guy with a drone that shoots them down.[/QUOTE] I usually just missile the shit out of the enemy shield system then wail on them with the burst laser, works perfectly unless the enemy has one of those fucking drones but that's not often for me.
Alright, made a thread in the GGD. Doesn't have much content but...
This game is surprisingly addicting. Already spent 9 hours on playing it. Get shield and evasion if you want to survive with relative easy. Probably add in some drones too for extra survivability. (Although I havne't had a drone system yet)
[QUOTE=latin_geek;37681793]I usually just missile the shit out of the enemy shield system then wail on them with the burst laser, works perfectly unless the enemy has one of those fucking drones but that's not often for me.[/QUOTE] I always, always end up either missing with the missile, or hitting the shield twice with a laser only to miss with the third.
Got to the final boss, was getting molested but my shields were holding ok so I decided to just all out and send over my entire crew to fight. Went perfect until he warped away with them. :( Did not see that coming.
Oh how I wish I could get this. I have no money left after kickstarting Planetary Annihilation though :smith: Picking up this gem ASAP.
[QUOTE=Amiga OS;37681572]Fully upgraded doors FTW. Just expose the bastards to vacuum then finish them off hand to hand.[/QUOTE] Exactly. I was running around on Engi layout B (really interesting build BTW) which gives you all of 1 person. I maxed doors, locked the pilot in Helm, and opened every single other door on the ship and vented the atmo. I kept an anti-personnel drone around and 2 repair drones and we just kept on trucking.
[QUOTE=Edthefirst;37672015]Looks great imo. The graphics are tiny and cute, but it certainly doesn't lack detail. Plus I'm enjoying the hell out of it. I've already put in 3 hours into just by playing individual little games. I sit down, play one life, go do something else, and inadvertently I am back to playing FTL. It's great; the game doesn't take much to get into, and the gameplay is very easy to just pick up. Loving it so far, and worth way more than the $8.99 I spent on it.[/QUOTE] i really love this game but no it does look like shit
[QUOTE=Jo The Shmo;37694105]i really love this game but no it does look like shit[/QUOTE] just because it's "omg indie game must have pixel graphic?" They certainly aren't the best looking sprites ever, but it's very solid.
