1:26:13 We never heard Mordin Solus's full cover of "Scientist Salarian" in Mass Effect 2/3, but Will Roland and The 8-Bit Big Band did one! ua-cam.com/video/UxVekZRIWyg/v-deo.html
You're a real one for using the Mitch Hedberg joke to such relevancy with singing/composing. Loved his comedy, such a unique take on the most everyday aspects of life and that delivery of his was one of a kind. RIP Mitch.
Pirates of Penzance is my favorite show ive ever been in!! I got so excited to hear it mentioned lol. Great run! The cycle is getting closer and closer!
This run had some similarities to my shieldless stealth A that I recorded: You started the run by buying a charge laser, and later on you got a free halberd. Where it differs is that I think I ended up with two halbers and some other beam for a beams only build, whereas you kept the dual laser and added a free flak. Nice run :D
~~How does a rock ship, boarded, fires burning shields and weapon, stuck in a nebula of an abandoned sector with naught a scrap escape to reach the final map?~~
Phantom is....fine....Les Mis is actually great though Rand you really need to see it sometime. The movies suck...the next best to live would be the 10th anniversary stage production they did that you can still find out there. Hamilton is great, but it's more about how it's all put together than the music itself...the music is fine but the show in it's entirety is the point. Man of La Mancha...now THAT'S a good musical.
Winning with all 28 ships in a row is what I'm referring to as 'the cycle.' The point of this "Hard mode, NO pause Streak cycle" challenge is to beat all 28 FTL ships in a row, randomly selected with no pausing allowed during combat. And of course, if you lose a run, the cycle resets and we start over!
Hi there! question. when hacking the flag ship during second phase, you always seam to hit the shields with the hack on second try (usually gets shot 1st try) but always land it second. i just did 3 separate playthroughs with hack lvl 3 and couldnt land it after 8-9 tries and just rage quit. is there something im missing your doing?
You have to depower hacking right as the defense drones fire at it. It's easy to mess up on no pause, so he doesn't always get it the first try, but it's pretty easy with pause.
You can do this with any defense drone. Set hacking to level 1. Launch it. Wait until defense drone fires. Depower hacking right away. Then repower it. Defense drone fires as of the drone was still moving so the shot misses and the hacking drone goes through.
I think you're misunderstanding how the hacking drone past defense drone mechanic works. When I do it phase 2 of the boss, I'm not using 2 drones. I'm depowering Hacking RIGHT as the enemy defense drone fires to make its shot miss, then repowering hacking for the drone to get to the enemy ship. This is a well-established strategy that you can probably find many videos on how to do on UA-cam. Look up "FTL Hacking Defense Drone Bypass Trick," or something similar.

Yup, that's the recording I was trying to remember, so good!

RIP Mitch, such an amazing comedian and performer.
Loved the operas/operettas/musicals discussion. Gilbert & Sullivan and Rodgers & Hammerstein will always have a place in my heart

I forgot how much zip love your streams, keep up the great work 😊
Loved the music discussion from this run lol. Streak is looking great Rand!
Thanks, Em!

19:45 "You're not actually going into an asteroid field?"
OMg you got FTL music back?? I missed that info update!:D
My most favourite ship. And the streak continues!!
Hey rand, would you have been able to get all your jumps in sector 3 if you went through that 4th nebula? 56:25
Only having 3 Weapon slots does not mean that you yill gett guaranteed 3 drone slots, since Mantis B starts with a 3/2 setup
rand should obviously make FTL parody songs of musicals. "the name on everybody's lips is gonna be,,,, Rock C!"

Wait fr Les Mis is actually goated
In the heights is good too
Love Sweeney tho
Can I be a Crystal crewmember?
This run was crazy smooth btw, good stuff. Stealth A is one of my favorites as well
Sure thing!
Can I for the next no pause have a Zoltan named "Icarus" please?
You got it!
Hey, i'm a self taught FTL player been playing for around 6 years, but I don't know what a cycle is. What is it?
I think it's beating the game with every ship in random order and no losses

He has a short that teaches you how to do it using pause! It's been so good for my runs

Do you reckon level 2 medbay could cure cancer?
Or hypergrowth your cancer into level 2 supercancer
Good question...we'll have to ask the Subset devs, lol.
