![]() ![]() If you have junky augments/weapons/etc you picked up in encounters, you can count their sale price toward this. It's harder to do this than on easy, but still (often) worth it. If you can, keep about 80 scrap or so in reserve for if you run into a store. It's usually safe to have about 2 more in systems than you have power, and 4 or so if you have the backup battery. No point loading your ship with systems you can't use at all because you don't have the power. be exceedingly difficult at times and the Easy mode is more like Normal. In the game, the player controls the crew of a single spacecraft, holding critical information to be delivered to an allied fleet, while being pursued by a large rebel fleet. FTL: Faster Than Light is the charming indie game youve never heard about. It's best to build out slightly in excess of the power in your reactor, so that you have to shift power around during combat somewhat, but don't take it too far. FTL: Faster Than Light is a real-time strategy roguelike game created by indie developer Subset Games, which was released for Microsoft Windows, macOS and Linux in September 2012. Expect to die dozens of times before you really start to kick ass. Don't underestimate the importance of engines, for instance. Tip 1: Be patient This game is difficult to master. If you're spending a lot on repairs, you're letting one or more of the last two of those slide and are taking damage as a result, or you're not fighting effectively. That might be why you love it so much, that it challenges you to plan, but wont tell you whats coming next. But rather than looking at what comes next with certainty, you can play the best way you can, and adjust your strategy on the fly when you get the weapon or upgrade that you cant pass up. A reasonable rule of thumb, not a rule to be slavishly followed, is to buy the least expensive thing that improves your ability to deal damage, dodge damage, and resist damage. FTL is a game that rewards control and planning. The main differences and noteworthy things I can remember, aside from all the additions from AE, were that Boarding was significantly more useful due to the AI not throwing additional crew to fight your guys until the first person either died or ran. Its design is clean and crisp and only as 2D as it needs to be for ease of use. Easy and Normal in those days were effectively the same as Easy and Normal in current-era FTL. ![]() It won numerous awards, including the Excellence in Design Award and Audience Award at 2013s Independent Games Festival. Usually first is second layer of shields, but then, improve weapons and engines, roughly in that order. It’s ten years old now, but FTL is a great strategy/action game, the first title by two-person studio Subset Games. Even if you learn the game by reading forums like this and watching videos of skilled players like I did, there's enough of a learning curve to make it. I wouldn't say always keep your main systems completely equal, but it's a good idea to build out more or less evenly, starting by patching obvious weaknesses and then improving systems. I did the same with FTL, and with all my research and understanding, I failed a dozen times (several before even reaching stage 3) before I finally got a good run. There isn't as much and you should only spend it on things that are immediately useful and worth it. You shouldn't blow scrap with reckless abandon like you can get away with on Easy. ![]()
