![]() ![]() Choosing to stick with a theme in mind and not being flexible with ship systems will cost you. Instead of accepting defeat like before I instead chose to study the reasons and causes as to why my runs kept failing and eventually I kept seeing the poor choices I made before and how to make better decisions.Ĭhoosing to buy that Vulcan cannon for 95 scrap in sector 2 when you don't have level 3 shields yet will cost you. My first few runs went the same way as before and I thought to myself :"Here we go again" but as I kept playing I realized that this game is less RNG and more the choices you make that can come back to bite you. I currently have all ships and layouts unlocked except Federation C. Also the last time I played I used a downloaded save file and just stuck to ships I liked using, this time I was determined to do it the old fashioned way and unlock ships by playing the game. The last time I played FTL I got frustrated by the "RNG" and cursed my bad luck all on that alone but now I see that RNG had nothing to do with it or at least not entirely. Btw, GOG now has cloud saves so you dont have to worry about that happening now. ![]() Because mine was a GOG copy I had to start my game all over again as I did not have my save file from before. What a coincidence, I started my FTL run again last month. I'll let yall know how it goes.īelow is me realizing that my top score is DURING A LOSS!!! That's probably why I RQ the game, lol. This week, I have tried and failed at Federation, Zoltan, and Slug B. How I'm going about this is that I'm attempting one racial ship/day. So join me, as I try to play about one game a day or so, in an attempt to correct this error, in an exercise of masochism. In other words, I still have a ton of FTL to play, AE enabled, of course. I have yet to unlock Engi, Mantis, Rock, or Stealth C. I noticed immediately that I had yet to achieve a VICTORY for:Īll of the C ships. I fired up the game after not playing for a good six months to a year. Or, you run into a Zoltan in sector 2 who jukes all your shots and lands theirs before you can escape.Ī derail ensued, and folks started talking about FTL. In contrast, FTL's RNG Might just toss a boarding drone into the pilot's room of your Engi vessel and you just straight up die. I made a passing comment in the Into the Breach thread concerning how I like ItB more because unlike in FTL, if I lose, I know it's my fault I can discern that one or two turns ago, I made a move that I shouldn't have, or, I notice the cumulative effect of bad moves that ultimately result in my grid falling or losing a pilot. ![]()
