I've wanted Virus' 2nd ability since the first day I played the game. Slocknog's is really cool. I'm always impressed what info people can pull out of the game. Ruwen's seems a bit weak in comparison. Maybe instead of repair, he can generate a "shield" of crystals around himself? That work...

I've been playing for almost 700 hours and I still get this wrong. In general, though, I like to keep my mechs up front, except SOME artillery mechs that should be placed so they can range left/right or forward/back the most, to be able to target the most tiles. I like to give vek my mechs to target...

The same way you unlock every other pilot. by finding her in a time pod. Or using a tool to unlock, if there is one. If there is, it'd be on this forum somewhere.

I just watched one of my recent videos, which are unmodded, and the beam drones have a red light that gets brighter as they fire, as I'd expect.

EDIT OH you said beam 2. I encounter those so rarely I'd have to watch for it

Yeah that'll do it.

FWIW I use(d) good old "zip" from the gnu utilities for Windows.

650+ hours and I've never seen this bug. If it is happening on the current version, then there must be some very specific circumstance under which it happens, that those who get it tend to do or have while those that don't, don't do or have. If you are having it (as isla says, on the current version...

Runs like that are why I still play this game 6+ years after getting it

That free Weapon Pre-igniter. Finding 2+ flak cannons with the Red Tail. Having 4 mantises and a teleporter, and getting Mind Control. Having a ship where the Fire Beam actually works.

Man I want to play, now.

Early Rift Walkers can be hard, especially on Hard mode. They're pretty weak compared to the Vek they face. Initial placement is important in Hard mode. In addition to "don't get webbed" (which isn't a terrible thing, really) I also like to bait vek that aim at multiple targets to aim at m...

Can you be more specific? How do you make the custom images? Do you use a specific program? Sorry, I'm new at this :D Just any drawing program. You can even use MSPaint, though The Gimp would probably be better if you know how to use it. "How do I do computer art" is a bit of an advanced ...

When you say "level 2 shields" do you mean 2 power in shields so you only have 1 shield bubble, or 4 power so you have 2 shiled bubbles? If you have 2 power, then your next 50 scrap should be invested to get you 4 power in shields. In fact, I make that the first 50 scrap I spend in most ga...
