I bought this because I dug FTL and Star Control's clever writing and charm, and this seemed similar from what I've read. I figured risk of buying into an early access was not so great from Kickstarter testimony, the devs seem pretty devoted to timely updates and excellent communication/support. I'm 30 minutes in and haven't even left port, yet I can tell the writing/style is going to be  the heck out of me.

I ran into an unfortunate bug that I thought I should inform yous about. If you ever dock at Wither and go to the House of Questions, DO NOT exit by hitting the "Perhaps not" dialog action, it will cruelly select the lowest most option visible to you, which, depending on your resolution, will be a loss of 100 eurosheckles on a bribe or having your captain go all: HUMBUG, I'LL SPIT IN THE FACES OF YOUR FALSE GODZ and trash the place. Probably not the smartest thing to do. Instead, exit by the (G) hotkey or the big red X in the top right.

Is there crossover stuff between the two games or is that only coming in the future?

Uh oh, I think I miscalculated and now I am at the Chapel of Lights with not enough fuel to get to the place West of Codex Or is my best bet to charge off an some other direction to hopefully find some baddies to beat up before we kill each other out in the madness of the dark?

^ Don't you get 2 Ambig Egoliths halfway through, at the altar thing? Shipchat: Does the player have to do anything for the Secure Cargo aft slot thing to function or does it just passively prevent awful things from happening? Also, my deck gun it gives +15 Iron and + 1 Cannons. Can I use this extra dakka or is it just something that isn't implemented yet? To contribute: Did you know that you can use torpedo nets even if they are unequipped and packed in your hold? I've yet to come across any fish-flinging foes, so big help that is. Neat, though.

Bendigeidfran posted:The "extra cannons" is a bit misleading; that particular deck gun equips to a different slot from the other guns, so you can equip an additional one in the regular slot. i.e to get Maximum Firepower you could equip the gun with +1 cannons AND one of the Caminus Yards guns. But CY sells both Forward and Deck slot weapon module things that would have a higher total Iron value?

I torpedoed a bat swarm. Obligatory .gif Talking about this game with your buddies using as many bat-puns as possible is a game unto itself. BatBucks, BatRadar, BatBar, Batzaar. Just barrels of fun. Roumba fucked around with this message at 19:27 on Aug 5, 2014 |

While I wait for the laptop I left my Sunless Sea save file on to return from elsewhere, I've been playing Fallen London to delve into the lore and perhaps gain future goodies in SS. Feel free to involve me in brain melting activities and assorted debauchery: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Ryone~Suliemannt

Is there a good guide or equation for the relationship between speed, engine power, and ship weight? I know higher power burns fuel faster for some sort of nebulous speed bonus but that's about it. Back in the beta days, ship weight did nothing at all so all ships turned and accelerated the same. Has there been much change since October for these mechanics?

Well poo poo... I forgot that the Tireless Mechanic needed an Element of Dawn in addition to all his other crazy stuff and now I'm docked at Kingeater's port along with 14/30 crew in my 28 hull cargoship and there's a Glorious Dreadnaught patrolling the entrance. Soon, the end may come for me, but I shall sally forth from this castle, flash my Brilliant Scintillac and cannons and carve a chapter of my own into the mythos of the zee. Edit: A patch! The praise the godz! Roumba fucked around with this message at 22:07 on Jun 27, 2015 |

As far as I know, only the 60 second Something Awaits You period stands in the way of rodentine ren-fair recreation and ration replenishment. That and the eternal shame you will carry for enslaving those poor LBs.

The map-retaining legacy may not be as helpful as you think. Your next captain will miss out on the huge amount of fragments you earn from discovering places and creatures. There's something like 30+ secrets worth of discoveries across the whole map, which is quite the haul. Keeping some of your dead captain's Pages is probably the best part. I find it the most difficult stat to increase, by far.

Taear posted:So - talking of slowness. Is there a way to get the Zee Ztories and such faster? It requires 77 of each of them to create the thing you need to win as "greatest explorer". I see like....20 as a lot so I'm really not sure how to go about it other than farming tonnes of zee beasts. How is the 75 secrets required not your biggest limiter? Stygian Ivory (Harvest or buy at Khanate/Chelonate)-> Tales of Terror@Wither -> Irem at 2:1 OR with a case of wine you can trade 10 for 10 at the Empire of Hands' Treasure Hunter. If you follow the Mechanic's storyline to its penultimate step, do 1:1 trades of Mem of Dist Shore for Zee-ztories for as long as you keep the Sage around.

The Last Tour replaces 12 supplies with 12 tomb colonists you get to take on wacky adventures. An Element of Dawn needs 50 supplies, among many other expensive things. The Chapel of Lights also has a number of stages that require supplies, if you're brave enough... Otherwise just hang on to them, back up fuel is always nice.

The Sharmat posted:How do you get new tomb colonists after losing some? I saw an event for it in Polythreme back when I had a full complement but it's gone now that I don't. Quite infrequently, you can find a tomb-colonist inside a Zee Creature's stomach. Crabs and Sharks do not a chance for this, supposedly. The other method is the one you found in Polythreme, where you recruit a bandage-colony to play the part of one of your missing tourists. This is available 50% of the time you dock at Polythreme with Something Awaits You.

Yeah, it usually works by varying the RESULTS of a particular action, but there are a few places in the game where an entirely different option appears for you to choose.

There are additional legacies that give +25 to certain stats for all future captains. See if you can reasonably complete some of the game-ending or nearly game ending choices in here: http://sunlesssea.gamepedia.com/Legacy
