It's officially been two weeks since I've seen a slug, maybe more. I usually make 1-2 playthroughs on a given day, so it seems improbable that it's coincidence.
Just to be totally clear, I haven't seen a slug anywhere, neither on enemy ships nor having joined my crew. Humans, Engi, Zoltan, Mantis, and Rockmen abound, but there's not a Slug in sight.
There are slug ships, however. For the sake of this post, I went and found one. The crew? Rockmen.
I wonder if it's because of the update. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?

Re: Slug Bug?
I've always found slug crew to be MUCH less common than all of the others.

Re: Slug Bug?
Your best chance to recruit a slug is if you check the shops in slug controlled nebulas.

Re: Slug Bug?
You were right, I found one in a shop in a nebula sector. I usually avoid nebula sectors, so, if slugs only appear in nebulae, that explains why I've gone so long without meeting a slug...I think.Number43 wrote:Your best chance to recruit a slug is if you check the shops in slug controlled nebulas.
There was still a slug-related bug. I sold a weapon so I could afford to hire him. I paid 45 scrap, got a confirmation noise, but he didn't join. So, I sold another weapon and an augment to afford it again. This time it worked. So, unless I'm quite confused, there's still something funny going on.
