    16:10 - The AI cheats. Watch an enemy ship fire a burst laser: each shot is aimed at a different room. You fire a burst laser: can only pick one room to focus those shots on. I wouldn't be surprised if the enemy got to target where their drones shot as well.

      I actually talk about this in one of my videos, don't remember which one. Some people replied they think that's actually BETTER, since if you're weapons got hit 3 times instead of once, it would be worse for the player. I'm not sure which is worse, but it IS annoying the AI can do something the player is prohibited from doing.

    • @rand118
      @rand118  6 лет назад +23

      Hah, yeah, one of the most common mechanics people have mentioned while I stream is wishing you could board enemy ships and steal them. That would have required a lot of work on the Dev's side and is something I'm sure they never planned on happening, so sadly it can't be done. I'm sure the auto-pilot boss thing is just a way to make it so that boarding is not the easiest, end-all strategy people use the beat the boss every run.

      I don't really see what you could do with a stolen enemy ship.. The enemy ships are too weak to be a good ship yo use for yourself and if you were able to form a fleet of ships you would be over powered and probably have too much to do to keep the gameplay funny.

    Im not sure, but it seems like there may be a lag from when you cloak to when you actually get the extra evasion. Cause it seems I get hit way more when I cloak right before I get hit.

    • @rand118
      @rand118  6 лет назад +15

      There is one mechanic of stealth that is not readily apparent. If your ship has shields, when the missile crosses the threshold of your shield, THAT is the moment when a dodge or hit is calculated. So if a missile crosses the threshold of your shield, THEN you cloak, if there was no "Miss" message, you'll still be hit. I will sometimes wait for a missile to cross that threshold to see if I'm hit or not before deciding to run away from the fight to avoid more damage.

  • @CeIIsius
    @CeIIsius 5 лет назад +8

    The Advanced Flak and Dual lasers are awesome starter weapons which i often keep to the end of the run.
    However nothing beats the Burst laser 2. I never actually managed to collect 4 of those but with this you can incapacitate an entire ship with the first volley. Very comparable to the Flak-Beam combo in terms of devastation.
