One of the new patches coming down the line is the "fighter patch" which will rework ships in general, not just adding the eponymous fighters. The fact that Templar Battleforce is still getting little balance tweaks makes these indy guys really endearing. I'm just about to restart having plunged my crew into a negative morale spiral and fundamentally not covered some really important skills.

So I'm still learning the systems because they're crazy complicated and there's lots of options to spend all your resources to get really edge case advantages, but upgrading your equipment locker is a pretty big advantage for not much outlay.

LLSix posted:Okay, I'm starting to get really annoyed that there's no way to tell what the cargo capacity of a ship will be when you start. Especially since the top-end ship that is supposedly designed for combat carries exactly as much cargo (35) as the top-end ship that isn't. Which makes one wonder what exactly the difference between them is intended to be. The stats are hidden through layers and layers of UI and what's worse is that many of them are traps in that they aren't the ones that really matter. Cargo capacity is entirely a matter of the cargo modules you have installed, which any ship can have.

It feels initially overwhelming but you'll quickly realise after a couple of false starts that individual skills really only matter for crew combat (and that's easy enough, pick a weapon and pick skills that work best for that position), what you need to keep track of are the skills for the crew as a whole and that while there are lots of different named skills they all actually pool together into a smaller band of groups (ie. free skill checks, ship combat buffs, debuffs etc). Failing a skill check when in space hurts because of the drains on hp/damage/morale so it's good to build up a buffer of 2-3 per check.

For character creation I recommend getting the best ship and dumping your starting level and contacts (xp comes fast, if you are doing the main plot there's plenty of missions without you needing more people to give you some).

frogge posted:Dunno if anyone is still playing this, but wow the difficulty curve between permadeath and normal is wild. I haven't had any captains last a year with p.d., while in my other playthrough I'm getting to late game stuff. I'm still noticing the weekly patch where some presumably ridiculous amount of content is being added and I'm sure I'll come back to play at some point.
