That's much stronger than what the tutorial gives you, user obviously wants to start somewhere other than rock bottom or fleeted up.

This was just posted recently on the official forum. You might give it a try

Forgot the link fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=15783.0

Why would you even interact with people you gamer?

What happened?

correct, anything that gets popular turns to shit because developers chase money and appeal to the lowest common denominator by ruining their games

How the heckles does somebody mine asteroids?

And is that a bad thing? Its not like an influx of players on a single player game will murder the community, unlike a certain other game sseth made a vid on.

Its more an issue of the 21:9 aspect ratio than the low resolution.
I can play normal 1920x1080 with black bars on the side

Yet if the game gets no attention, it dies since it brings in nothing.

would much rather have it die gracefully than have its corpse paraded around

Is the Killer Queen setup/mine weapons in the base game? I've always wanted a sci-fi game where you could be a minelayer

Relax, most people ITT will get bored with the game in about a month.

Any advice for fleet composition? Particular trash tier ships to avoid?

The Doom is a vanilla ship, good luck finding it as its rare

but what purpose do they serve in the vanilla game?

I'm less interested in the cloaking and more interested in loading a ship with a shitton of mine generators.

You mine ships in battle

No I mean what purpose do the asteroid fields have in the vanilla game

Generall speaking low tech and pirate modified ships are bad. The onslaught and mora are the exception

how do you use carriers? im trying to play starcraft and shove docking bays into everything that cant take em but its not working that great. if i get lucky 30-40 fighters swarm a ship an insta gib which is making me love carriers. usually though they all split up and do nothing or one carrier decides to fuckoff into the enemy and get killed.

Terrain to hide in/evade pursuers

Well youre unlucky because mine spam is the Doom's ability
There's other mine layer weapons but theyre also rare

Invest in bombers
Pair them with broadswords on the same carrier

>im trying to play starcraft and shove docking bays into everything that cant take em but its not working that great
It's not supposed to work great, this shit applies pretty serious debuffs to fighters if you didn't noticed. Get dedicated carriers, optimally use astral for bombers only and have 2-3 cruiser sized ones with interceptors.

How a carrier uses its fighters depends on the AI of its commanding officer. Aggressive/reckless officers will always attack, cautious/timid will keep their fighters in escort mode. Steady is a mix depending on the situation.
To get other ships to focus their fighters on any enemy, you need to either order a Fighter Strike on it from the command screen, or left click/select your carriers then right click the enemy.

Are combat freighters/tankers worth it?
They seem to be more expensive and trade strength in their actual jobs for slightly increased combat abilities and improved radar signature.

please dont tell me this game is MOSTLY just ship combat.

It can also be a blueprint scavenger simulator if you want

depends on your playstile, like it'd technically be possible to avoid it completly but if you play normally yeah there's a bit why

What about the ships with no captains?

not really. They would just take up precious deployment points, only really useful in small fleet scenarios but even then you could have just outrun the enemy

They just seem to have a lot of ships there and they're far better than mine

IIRC they can be deployed for much cheaper than dedicated combat hulls of same class. But that's just about their only advantage.

How the hell are you managing to lose to the tutorial pirates? The campaign tutorial literally gives you free ships and all the encounters are skewed heavily towards in your favor. You'd have to *try* to lose to keep fucking up like this.

I don't know man, all earlier fights were easy but this one has, in addiction to having a fleet of equal size to mine, a big fuck off ship that kills everything in its path.
Earlier fights were easy but this is fucked.

What ships should I generally try to get at the beginning? I have around 150k after selling some lobster and doing some surveys

Post your fleet. Maybe you just suck at the combat. I beat them with the starting merchant fleet + 1 additional Wolf frigate

Why not? I personally love these types of games and it's the first time i heard about it. Game feels like much more complex Space Rangers desu

is there a way to make carriers not engage the enemy with the carrier itself? I have noticed that without my stern pimp hand to guide them the carriers eventually start brawling with their close range small weapons, which is obviously suicide if their fighters haven't killed something before they can make it to them

user i've been visiting this shithole for 11 years and don't remember seeing any starsector threads at all

Depends on the carrier, your fleet comp and officer personality. Most carriers will prefer to hide behind somebody else if they can find a buddy.

werks on my machine. I have all steady officers on my carriers and they stay behind the line battle ships

steady captains at the helm.
aggressive captains for carriers only if:
>all your other major combat ships have aggressive captains at the helm
>you have the means to replace the carrier

Usually it gets shitposted down and moved to /vg/ to make room for smash threads.

I turned the computer off now since its late but it was the starting ships (wolf+kite) and two ships I found for free, fully repaired.

I had that happen to me before, 0.9.1 should have prevented carriers from going full retard but I imagine it still happens. Try getting cautious or timid officers and avoid putting anything besides PD on carriers and see if they function better without direct commands.

You can actually beat those missions with your flagship under autopilot. The tutorial is literacy test tier of dead simple and easy to finish.

Post your fleet and post what you're facing.

Attached: Squall.gif (246x510, 3.97M)

I beat it, but I kept getting deployment warnings because the fight was taking too long. I think that might be because I forgot to check back in at the planet and get all the free guns after salvaging my fleet and I ended up buying a shitload of cheap garbage weapons.

Speaking of, what kind of loadouts should I be aim for later down the line? I'm mostly just slapping whatever I've got into any available slot and hitting the auto-group button, which works for now but I'm guessing that's not going to hold up.

Also I guess another question: what are the must-have mods for when i get a better grip on the game and start over?

Diable Avionics explicitly references slaves

He just doesn't want to admit that he heard about the game first from the sseth video and only now began to notice the threads. Just another "gamer gurl" tier of fake motherfucker.

As long as you don't mess with other mods modders don't care as far as I can tell reading things.

The Drover and the Heron were explicitly mentioned in the last version patch notes for being suicidal combative

I'm not trying to be insulting, but I think you're just Dean Takahashi level of oblivious when it comes to video games. The tutorial literally TELLS you all of this before sending you off to combat.

It is in the receipt.

Gotta hit the markets, son.

You go to strong markets. Those have the best ships, or get a commission form one of the factions and access their military storage.

All the good stuff are kept in military markets that are locked away by commission, on occasion you see something nice on the open or black market. A couple Independent military markets might offer some nice stuff if you have decent reputation with them. Usually I go for bounties that have ships I like.

So I need to deepthroat one faction until they sell me the good shit?

Sometimes you can find good shit in the Black Market, but not as often.

FUCKING KEK

Yeah. That or get lucky and find one floating around somewhere.

It's a bad thing on Yea Forums because most people are so desperate to be "unique", as they see it as a shortcut to being interesting.

You can also raid and pillage until you get some sick shit then repair it to remove the D-mods.

If window shopping multiple size 5+ markets don't offer anything of value and if the idea of a colony to build shit you want isn't ideal or available early on, then you can get a better chance with commission.

I have a million credits, is that enough to build a colony?
I still have no idea of the economy in this game.

I see.

Attached: shr.jpg (384x313, 71K)

you need a commission to buy from most military sellers, the only exception is independents who let you access military markets without a commission so you can get some decent cruisers and capitals from the. If you're playing with nexerelin and turned on prisim freeport there's a highend seller that sells all kinds of ships and weapons for like a 200% markup

looting a wreck got me "adequate farmland" intel, I have been to the system and surveyed all the planets there, how do I get rid of the intel?

Dedicated carriers are slow as fuck and better stay back protected by one or two small frigates. Then just send your bombers escorted by a fighter wing.
Other ships with hangars that aren't dedicated carriers can just fight normally, engaging directly.

1 million is just enough to get it off the ground, but you're gonna have to invest heavily into it

There is a reason why I really like the Prism Freeport (included in both SCY and Nexerelin) and that is the High-End seller.
The other reason is the blueprints exchange.

Should be enough, depends really on finding a good system, preferably with multiple good worlds.

A bare colony yes. With build queues you want 2-3 million and a couple colonies starting up at the same time, that way you have have patrol fleets and heavy industry to start at the same time. You'll make that money back but probably not until the next cycle or so unless you build farms and mines on resource rich worlds.

Sell that shit.

I'm playing vanilla, first time.
Alright I'll do a few more credits and then I'll start with the colony stuff.

There is no time limit right?

If you mean survey data item, you can sell it.
If you need to know where planet with said farmland it, check exploration tab in intel menu.

Does it have the exclamation mark on it? Click on that so it doesn't appear unless you filter intel by exploration.

You can do colony stuff at any time

No time limit. Two mods make so other factions start their own colonies, but, mods, and they also don't pick planets too well.

That or you can explore darilicts in deep space. Those usually give blueprints. Or you can just murder the faction and get blueprints off the corpses.

No. You're basically bombarding everything on the planet. The expats, the sexpats (fucking Tri-Tach degenerates), embassies, secret agents, civilians not belonging to the faction, stored goods, foreign-owned properties, all of them.

You can freely "abandon" a colony before it hits size 3, but after that, it's impossible.

You can't sat bomb colonies on commission, but you can repeatedly disable the starport and cause enough unrest that it will slowly descend into chaos.

it's part of the nexerelin mod. You can turn it on when starting a new save and it will spawn somewhere in hyperspace in the core of the sector. It's a size 10 independent freeport with a military market as well

If you've ever wondered how varied colony incomes can be at a glance, here it is.
Note the negative income colony. It's a 200% haz planet and normally nets about ~20k per month. One Luddite sabotage in the right industry can cause a cascading loss and tank your entire colony's income if your planet is shit quality to begin with.

Yup, Press D and it should be under doctrine and blueprints, you can set ships to favored so make sure you never pick civilian ships for your colony. I personally use a mix of ORA and Sylphon ships for max lightshow

Systems in yellow are where I started my initial colonies.

If you thought you could have your colonies in close proximity to make defense easier, you'd be only half right. Yes, you'll have bases of operations in close proximity. In practice, pirate stations from across the map can target your shit, which means colony placement doesn't really matter. You have to travel the entire width and height of the galaxy regardless of which colony is under attack.

This is actually a good thing. You can just forget worrying about colonies being close together and only worry about picking the MOST OPTIMAL planet for moneymaking. It's honestly similar to how the core systems' factions are laid out, so it all fits in the lore of things.

One of every type. It doesn't matter how abundant the resource is, as long as it exists.

How much is being produced depends on the population, how much is being exported depends on the accessibility of the colony and after that, you have to consider the upkeep of the structures and that depends on the hazard rating, you want a low hazard rating for your expensive industries.

WTF is the versant?
It's a sexy ship and I love how it was balanced in a way that makes it simultaneously OP as fuck, but weak because it only can operate for so long before it starts malfunctioning, but is it a mech like the other wanzers or a ship? I literally keep looking at the sprite and can't figure it out because it has a head but then it has those weird fucking prongs

What's your username on the forums, fag? I'm curious.

Of course he's upset, and rightly so. We're here to talk games and you only care about dev drama. Knock it off.

Not him but yes. Generally a good rule of thumb is 1~2 kinetic weapon with one HE of similar range and size, not including PD weapons. So something like one/two HVD with H.mauler, or one Heavy autocannon/two arbalest AC with heavy mortar works well.
Range is a great thing to have, keep range if you have longer ranged weapons.

Hell yeah it is.
Using a similar loadout on mine, except with no Extreme Modifications, two Banish Torpedos and still have room for points of vents thanks to maxed out Loadout Design. Actually, I could skip the vents altogether and go full beams anime.

If it is a Legion (XIV), yes.

And the total monthly profit from all this micromanaged autism? Somewhere between 2.5 to 4 mil depending on the pirate and Luddic threats.

Is it worth it?

Yeah. The pirate/Luddic stations spawn in waves and while it takes a while to swat them down, there's plenty of time inbetween that I can go and do other stuff as well. Manually going through each planet to squash Luddic cells does get tedious, but the UI is surprisingly good and it only takes two clicks to do. I just wish there was a mechanic for sending your security fleet to put down some of these station threats. I don't care if there's a diceroll or not, at this point I can afford the losses.

Sending "inspectors" for AI cores is a Hegemony thing. Other factions will come in to sabotage your industry, be jelly of your free market, or whatever else. You can always bribe them to fuck off without a reputation loss.

Man, what the fuck did you do to Rimworld?

Can you just use a mine launcher and spin to just cheese this game?

I always used my Legion as a battering ram armed with medium Typhoon launchers. It can do some serious damage as a breakthrough vessel because they're all forward facing and have good arcs + fighter cover helps get rid of smaller ships, but it will fold under long range sustained fire.

You're probably thinking of endless skies.

Only the Hegemony does. You can bribe away inspections and expeditions, though.

doesn't that just show that you also watch him?

No, and it'll never happen because the dev won't allow any mods to be shared that use any material from any source without written authorization from the people who created the material in the first place. Maybe if and when the game hits 1.0 there will be a modding scene pop up that isn't controlled by the forum sycophants, but I imagine this game will never see steam and, if it does, do not expect workshop support. It'll be like parajew games where there are mods locked on the parajew forums and you'll have to register and prove ownership to get access. If the /vg/ thread and infinitychan threads wake back up, maybe there will be mods there and on loverslab if there's anyone into lewding up the game.
Modding is part of the game and it's a relevant conversation.

Only reason to play rimworld is for mods.

Prove me wrong that mods are on lockdown by a circle of dick suckers that I imagine you (samefagging, I might add) are part of. This game has only survived for so long because of mods and Alex is milking his suckups for all they're worth for as long as he can. Expect an announcement that starsector will be an EGS exlusive in the lead-up to 1.0!

Wouldn't it make more sense for all of this to be automated after a certain point?

Link to the post where that happened.

What is even your damn argument.
All I can see here is that you want to cram your shithole full of drama because it sexually excites you.

Last time I played this game is back when Yea Forums used to have threads for it.

Nexerelin has faction fleets occasionally going to stamp out Pirate and Luddic Path bases.
Kadur Remnant/Vayra's Sector adds a mechanic where raiding factions (Pirates, Luddic Path, Kadur Remnant) stop making any new bases if they lose all their markets but, last time I tried that it was sort of bugged and now the mod is very much in development and prone to save breaks.

Why do you even need to post mods there? Can't you just make a mod using what ever you want and just post it here or even on leddit if you wanted? How does that constitute a mod monopoly when you don't even have to publish mods you've made on their forum at all?

There's a mod that I can't remember the name of, which adds tons of pirate rust buckets of all sizes.
I think the pirate faction is a great idea that needs to be fleshed out more. Something like an "alternate" but very illegal source of big ships for roleplaying runs or no-commission challenges. The mechanic as it stands is almost reminiscent of ship licenses from EV: Nova and I think it could be made even better if the pirate faction got more ships in vanilla.

I mean the AI seem to struggle with this quite a bit. I had a fleet of about 7 ships mostly frigates, downgraded to 5 and replaced a frigate with a big ass carrier. Whereas before pirates ran away from me now they all attack me and I completely fuck them up because lolbombers

Underworld?

That would be Junk Pirates and Underworld.

problem?

Macross mod when? youtube.com/watch?v=vHDxYYHBDZE

yeah, I think i've got the mod you are talking about
But I do agree, with the whole licensing thing there should be more cheap stuff heavily converted into warships. I'd like to see the addition of weapon rails in addition to slots, where only big single/double torpedos/missiles can be fitted. Makes sense to turn a fragile freighter into a quick strike one hitter machine.

It probably wouldn't get to this point, to be quite honest. Realistically, maxing out one colony takes a long, long time. It'd be a while before you have several, let alone two colonies.

Nothing stopping people from playing a while, senpai. Some people like 'map painting.' My point is that dealing with pirates and cultists should mostly be handled locally, not by you.

Nexerelin enables you to do that. You can hire agents that will stamp out luddic cells for you and infiltrate other factions to raise relations with them for you, or sabotage relations of those factions with other factions.

And pirates?

I mean most of the mods for Starsector are only listed on the forums at this moment, so there's that. It's a matter of both visibility and convenience. Imagine having to go to one site to download BRDY and Dong (when) only to have to go somewhere else to get Shadowyards and Diable, and then continue on to yet another site for whatever portrait packs you want to use etc. Might not be a big deal for some, but I'd imagine most would want everything available in the same place for convenience sake. We're well into the age of instant gratification after all.

Pirates can be dealt with by your colony fleets and orbital installations if they actually get to attempt to raid the surface of your planet. Your colonies, when developed enough will have trade and defense fleets both and mercenary patrols will be hired to further reinforce their capability for self defence.

boom, problem solved

Coming up with a setting appropriate name is hard, the random gen seems to mostly give me female ones, but it seems mostly based on planets and moons so I went to look something up there, and the vast majority of those are feminine.

The perseans usually have some good shit just out in their open markets, ranging from killer frigates to outright pristine cruisers

Name yourself "Tax Freeman".

Persean and and sometimes Independent markets tend to have ships I like before acquiring capitals. PL is pretty good on size and number, if you prefer midline then Sindria can offer some more ships around that level of tech.

The virtue signalling is strong in this one.

unironicallty get good i didnt even nkow this game HAD a tutorial

If I have a High Command in one colony, will all my other colonies in different systems have patrols as well?

All colonies need a patrol hq to send patrols. Military base and High Command are needed for larger fleets and I think also fleets patrolling in hyper space but don't quote me on that.

You get a fleet regardless. High Command just gives a really big modifier to your fleet size. For the precise numbers, mouse over the "Fleets" triangle in the colony view.

Yes, when a game gets popular and you have thousands of little kids and lazy idiots with no attention span becoming the loudest voice of criticism for their game, it'll only get better.

There's ton of shit in the base game. What the hell are you reading?

I went and watched sseth's video after the fact. I think these kids actually haven't even watched the video judging from the kinds of questions they're asking.

If you go talk to the governor after getting the ships, he gives you a bunch of free supplies, crew, and weapons you need to put on the ships.

The SWP arcade boss, probably.
None, the game is polished enough and there is already a lot to take in as a new player.

The dev wants the game to be complete before being released in other platforms.
Basically it is a very extended early access on the devs terms.

How do I get more ships reliably? It takes ages to find ships to scavenge and I've got plenty of money I'd like to spend.

do a vanilla run first. the game stands on its own decently. then check the mod index and pick whatever fancies you

The anime portrait mod, and the faction mods that looks cool to you
Restart with Nexelin once you get used to the game

if the ship is asymmetrical, then any thrust provided by the engines will be off-center of mass and it will fucking spin all the time

Turn off your transponder and go dark. There is also a skill which decreases the range ships can detect you and doubles your go dark ability effectiveness. I have a mid sized fleet and my detection range is only 120.

Some stations are just too hard to sneak into though.

what the fuck do i pick as a starter? does the "faster start" thing make shit easier or what?

I gotta be honest, it activates my autism that I can't really afford to be a good pilot and admiral without crippling my tech, or vice versal.

You don't, look for a station with no patrols, or hope that the lone merchant fleet doesn't cares about you

I just bought the game and about to play my first play through, any tips you mad lads?

The different starting options change what ships you have at the beginning, the easier/faster options give you more. Try the first (Wolf) option and go from there.

Obviously

Ok i picked the wolf, went with the drone ship thing and started on normal. hopefully i dont fuck up hard enough that i cant get passed the pirates at the jump gate.

should i pump the salvage skill first? what about autopiloting the fights, i feel like it would do a better job than i would personally

Keep an eye on the news channel: it might tell you when and where major battles are going to be and you might salvage some cool stuff

>News channel
what

I don't know much, but I think you can't go wrong with skills like salvage and navigation.

you won't be able to produce it so not really, and selling it is a bad ideqa in the long run

salvage is good. after that go for the ordinance points one in the blue path

commit to piloting yourself, once you get the hang of it you will see how insane your weight on the battlefield can be. there are almost no ships that the player cannot control better than the AI

>will a single cruiser defeat a bunch of frigates
Depends on the ships involved, but if the cruiser isn't braindead generally yes.
Support ships are nice to have early on and even up to lategame. Be it a dram/ buffalo or Atlas/prometheus, having extra storage can be useful, especially on long range expeditions(be it exploration or military)

>implying its worthless
Going to just sell it and make a colony off the proceeds. You can always get more blueprints.

...

I'd argue that a fucking paragon blueprint is an exception.

Always make sure you have fuel and supplies before you travel in hyperspace.
For easier pirate fights you can lure them near patrols, or join in a detachment in battle so you can steal kills and get rewarded for damage contribution.
Not moving or going dark in debris, asteroid fields, etc. will make you much harder to detect.
Turn your transponder off trading in the black market to lower suspicion, but don't do it in front of patrols.
Go to settings and enable Invert behavior of 'Strafe and turn to cursor' button or hold Shift to make aiming easier, allows you to strafe with A/D.
Press N to run simulation, you can use that to try out weapons before you buy them in markets or to experiment with loadouts without any risk to your fleet.
Try some missions if you aren't comfortable with combat after the tutorial, Mission: Random Battle generates random fleets and you can refit them with just about anything.

Modders don't care what other modders make as long as it doesn't mess with other mods! At least that is what it looks like to me reading things.

Reminder that Tri-Tachyon's AI are responsible for the gate collapse.

Not surprising.
>plenty of enemies
>being friendly with pirates means their independent trade fleets get fucked, meaning lower stability

proofs?

the mods that use copyrighted shit gets purged, and the mods that alter other mods or even work with other mods gets purged if the content threatens the OC donut steel factions

>AI-truster asking for proof when he knows what he did

Having read the forums and Discord a lot it looks modders just want their licenses to be followed.

yeah go make a mod that has compatibility with the autistic inner circle and see what happens

Somehow every other modder managed it.

But I seen relatively new mods come out that do interact with old mods and everything is fine? Also is there any mods that are not compatible with others? I need to play more of them.

I'm gonna. There's nothing they can do to stop me.

It's pretty basic though, if you want to have your mod hosted on the forum:
>Do not break other mods with yours.
>Do not alter other mods without asking first unless their license allow it.
If you want to break stuff privately, knock yourself out.

What are some essential mods that aren't "press X to win" OP bullshit?

give me some bloody beginner tipps, what should I do in early game
is my fleet too big?
in what should I invest?

just the ones you see, there have been plenty over the years purged because the content added upset the modders part of the dev's special butt buddies
gonna have to list them for me
nope but if you get into the "official" discord you'll see a lot of bitching about it if it gets popular, and it'll be a cold day in hell before the dev allows it on his forums. protip: don't let him figure out who you are or he'll blacklist you key and say it's been shared
the only rule is don't upset a handful of modders who are the dev's special sluts

You don't need to beat them. You just need to activate the gate. Put 3 points into "Sensor" skill, activate "dark mode", sneak behind them and activate the gate.

>Muh license
Copyright autism is bad enough with major corporations, private citizens getting in on it is the worst cancer.

There aren't any truly OP mod on the forum except maybe Blue. (There are plenty on the Chinese forum though)

Is there a guide on fitting? Its one of the very early things you need to do and the tutorial doesnt offer much advice.

Following the autofit stuff is nice but I never have all the weapons so I'm left with 1 or 2 hardpoints with nothing on it. And fitting myself I can get the hardpoints filled up but I'm not sure if what im doing is correct and then all the systems and shit to the right.

Everything else seems easy enough but I cannot figure out whats good and bad for fitting a ship.

And you'll have to list those purged mods to me because as far as I know, there were two in total over the past seven years.

Any examples?
Legacy of Arkgenis or however that is spelled, Tyrador, as just two.
I never seen any modders get very upset unless someone modified other mods?

Sylphon, Mining incorporated, Disassemble Reassemble, Mayasuran Navy, Ruthless Sector, Starship Legend...

Because they vanish into the ether. Here is one from recently: fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=14591.0
>Locking this thread; please keep in mind that discussing moderation decisions on the forum is against the forum rules.
Based dev, right?

Thank you! I really do need to play more mods.

So you found one of the two mods that were ever shut down.

Post links when you find them updated for the current version, if you would be so kind.

That is just one though? You made it sound like there was many.

Because homeboy listed the good mods that have been purged.
Happened before, it'll happen again. There are other mods that have stayed up that are breaking "the rules". Why do those stay up when others get purged?

So you're telling me all those special snowflake ships I've been avoiding so far are in fact perfectly balanced?

Can you list any of the not good mods that got purged?

Do you even own the game or are you just here to keep posting about your creepy fixation with the devs? Are you a mass shooter?

So I'm hearing there was a nazi mod that got shut down, where do I get it now?

All you got is outrage signaling and one single example of a not so greatly handled situation by either side.

It’s like reading a SJW tweet about the evil white man, except this nigga’s completely latched onto Alex.

Bonus for only listing one of the "many" mods that got purged.

so? I prefer the game to get attention because a mememaster did a meme video on it instead of paid reviews and shills

this game is too complicated

I started playing on sseth's cd key because I wanted to see if it was like FTL
why are there no other games about managing the innards of one ship and fighting one ship?
I really struggle to play these multiples vs multiples setups because I can't keep track of everything happening on screen
any tips for gitting gud or do u just need to play more? (yes I'm aware of the pause function)

Reminder that disliking the developer as a person does not mean someone hates the game, just like how you can enjoy a movie but think the director is a ninny.

how long is sseth's key gonna work?

Have you played the tutorials in the main menu, some of the single battle missions in the menu, and the campaign tutorial?

RENT
FREE
get over it you fucking tranny

Until the next version adds that key to the list of blocked keys, so 6 months to a year probably.

Pulsar, though its multiplayer and less detailed.

I did the tutoriala from the menu then started a campaign
there's just too much things on the screen, to much text, I don't even know what I have to do, I went to a station and picked a cargo quest but my cargo is too small

Sounds like you could use detailed advice, maybe join the Discord?

Being the one who did the translations for FoB and AL last time, don't expect it anytime soon. It's a ridiculous amount of work.

That is the worst possible advice a person could receive.

Your fleet isn't too big. You have plenty of cargo space, try some procurement missions or ferry some cargo from dockside bar requests while you travel since you look a bit tight on credits. What you should invest in really depends on what you want to try doing besides starting a colony, for now you should accumulate some more credits and try to bully some trade fleets if you can't afford buying supplies or fuel.

if the tutorial isn’t enough then you should be more worried about your IQ than being able to play this game.
the tutorial gives you free shit and handholds you through everything. how are you still having trouble navigating it?

Why?

I only did the combat and command tutorial from the menu

Discord is cancer incarnate, all discord communities are terrible circlejerks. Why the fuck are you even here if you prefer the hugbox format?

sseths key still work or am i just retarding it?

it's one of the games where if you don't magically know what stats you absolutely must have at the start then the game is impossible

Who said I prefer it? I like being user too but sometimes a live chat really is helpful.

A link was posted a thread or two back. I'm too lazy to bring it up but its there if you really want it.

you’re posting this in an outrage hugbox coddled by edgy teen mods.
i’m going to ask you again. do you even play this game or are you just here to blogpost about how triggered you are by an irrelevant outside community?

That is a good point! But with how lost that user is it would be hard to help him in this format.

what does it matter when they all control like a greasy turd and have the firepower of a sponge

>i’m going to ask you again
You haven't asked me shit, I'm someone who is generally against discord shit. Whoever is complaining about mods? Someone else entirely.
>This place is a hugbox!
Then why are you here?

To break the conditioning.

interesting that i don't see anyone policing progressive-authored mods via quite frankly malicious code like a total fascist

really makes you think

Tactical bombardment to lower defenses and having more marines will improve the raid. Pirate bases may not yield much since it may lack on stockpiles and be a waste, at least compared to pulling off a raid on Chicomoztoc or a larger military market.

>tfw you just used up 200 000 peoples worth of bandit, basically DDOSSED the dev
>Nobody bought the game
Pirates win again, deal with it

Actually it was criticized.

You got to wait till another faction pops a bounty on it. Otherwise you aren't gonna get paid for spacing pirates.

Apparently, you're doing a pretty poor job. You're going to need more of those vitamin supplements or whatever the fuck Alex Jones sells.

>Nobody bought the game
So many people bought the game they ran out of keys.

reread the post

I don't know considering that an user is saying tons of mods have been purged while being proven wrong left and right? I think I am doing a pretty good job.

I wish i could perform saturation bombing on the stormniggers in this thread

Why do you keep trying to drag some other conversation into this one?

Oh no, default relationship statuses.

Then why are you here?

That code was removed due to the criticism.

I already do. nice first world country with honest and hard working people.
Maybe if you guys actually did something about your dumbassery you might not have so many cultural issues.

Song?

Every mod should try and set as many of those as possible.

But I'm not sure why you post them.

talk about the game or fuck off
this board is not a fucking sewing circle for socializing about how triggered you are, fucking kike

I'm sure you can name your country.

a friend linked me to see some images. read down through the thread and saw it devolve into the usual "black/orange man bad XD "

LUDD IS MERCY

the point is that i don't see anyone writing equivalent code on the "evil" side

You can't find the thread URL from an image link.

Obviously, the evil side desperately seeks attention and legitimacy.

>You
Nigger, I'm seeing you act like a retarded shitposting baby and pretending you're higher than the other shitposter. That's what makes you look worse, user.

The more updates this game gets, the easier it becomes. First we got subspace which allows some bullshit maneuvers and non-risk moneymaking. Then removed the typhoon bombers and nerfed pirate patrols because noobs couldnt handle them. Now we got colonies which 100% propels even the blackest negro in to the late game, no skill required.

Starsector at this point is a casualized version of modded starfarer. Too bad got niggers like OP who cant pass the tutorial

Attached: 1564816369875.jpg (1280x720, 104K)

Seems to be just trolling since theres some obvious political bias's going on with certain mods and their authors (See; ACAB, Eat the Rich, and uhh some other ones near the bottom of the list)

Just from looking at them, this faction looks like it deserves a good purging.

I'd never heard of it before, that is why I follow the reviewers I do, they tend to play stuff I'd have never heard about.

I wouldn't call it trolling, unless its directed towards the mod author. We're in autosage anyway bruv, don't get too worked up.

Eh, the game got harder in the early economy days, Starfarer was easy as fuck. Do you nor remember how OP lashers were?

i highly doubt the mod author is in here, its just for generating replies and shitting up the thread.

>reichfugee furfag
like clockwork

Lashers were OP? This I gotta hear

What is ACAB?

Like I said, we're in autosage, poking at a sperg is no harm to the thread seconds from death.

Furfag he may be, but he's not the one talking like /pol/ while calling others /pol/.

There are some things I find funny or don't take seriously at all. Anyway I hope there's more fleet posting next time.

Before we die, what's the first ship I should upgrade to when I outgrow the Wolf?

Correct

Attached: java 2016-03-06 18-57-19-41.jpg (1364x768, 135K)

during the starfarer days merchant fleets didnt have much of a guard, a few hounds, here and there.

The original lasher's burn was fast enough it could easily prey on anything it wanted, while being fast enough to escape any kind of retaliation. Mounting two LDAC's and 2 harpoons would reduce just about anything to slag. if you supported it with a salamander it was easy game.

the only thing better than a lasher was a wolf and they were rare as fuck.

then when the game updated to have commander skill tree lashers could be upgraded to have hardened 300 degree shields with enhanced mobility.

Basically, up until the economy update any fleet that wasnt burn 10 lashers and wolves was essentially just a display piece.

Hammerhead

All Cops Are Bastards.
American thing relating to the police brutality over there.

>Space Turks
>They seem like hippies rather than some kind of Ottoman Empire deal
The fuck's the point? If you're going Turk it's either an invading steppe nigger horde, or that fatass Ottoman Empire fielding advanced cannons and slave-soldiers to sit on the competition.

Attached: 1399573232851.jpg (560x574, 57K)

Tempst, Omen and Afflictor (phase) are nice frigates if you want to stay high tech. If you want to go up in size then Hammerhead or Medusa, or Sunder if you're feeling risky. If you go up to destroyers at least keep a couple frigates to avoid the bigger ship getting swarmed.

Oh. As for that, you should probably know the people shouting anti-police stuff here are the type to say stuff like "theft shouldn't result in prison time" "trespassing should be legal" and "cops shouldn't exist" rather than wanting any kind of reform.

eh, i dont really care, its the usual totalitarian trash you come to expect these days.
