Hey Everyone,
Wanna ask whos playing this awesome game ! Difficult but fun there are a few quirks here and there but no game is perfect. For those whom are wondering what I blabbering about, the links and description below.

FTL : Faster Than Light

Game Description
In FTL you experience the atmosphere of running a spaceship trying to save the galaxy. It's a dangerous mission, with every encounter presenting a unique challenge with multiple solutions. What will you do if a heavy missile barrage shuts down your shields? Reroute all power to the engines in an attempt to escape, power up additional weapons to blow your enemy out of the sky, or take the fight to them with a boarding party? This "spaceship simulation roguelike-like" allows you to take your ship and crew on an adventure through a randomly generated galaxy filled with glory and bitter defeat.

KEY FEATURES:
Complex Strategic Gameplay - Give orders to your crew, manage ship power distribution and choose weapon targets in the heat of battle.
Play at Your Own Speed - Pause the game mid-combat to evaluate your strategy and give orders.
Unique Lifeforms and Technology – Upgrade your ship and unlock new ones with the help of six diverse alien races.
Be the Captain You Want - Hundreds of text based encounters will force you to make tough decisions.
Randomized Galaxy - Each play-through will feature different enemies, events, and results to your decisions. No two play-throughs will be quite the same.
No Second Chances! - Permadeath means when you die, there's no coming back. The constant threat of defeat adds importance and tension to every action.

I hate getting boarded. I found the only safe haven is boost medi lab to max and sent all your hands there. Last stand if got multiple entry. Then open all the airlocks.

What i hate more than being boarded is not being able to find a store with I'm low on fuel and missles.

Are there any guides for the game?

The key is to actually help out if possible and long range scanners usually help in avoiding unwanted contacts. Although earlier on, I did manage to get myself a second burst laser mkII so that helped quite a bit. Again, it's all about the RNG. Sometimes, you're screwed, sometimes you're not tongue.gif

which ship is better? I only got two the normal one and the adjudicator . The adjudicator is good since it have zoltan shield but the weapon power up is horrendous. Need to choice between the halberd beam or leto.
