    I love s-modding expanded magazines into all of my ships and then spamming weapons that use charges. It's a silly strategy but it works because charge-based weapons tend to be flux efficient and expanded mags fixes the low sustained DPS problem

    Hello, your vids help me to understand the game mechanic. Thank you. I did try to copy your fleet doctrin and tried to do same fighting like you do. Nah, it aint happen. I don't have the skills for it. So I changed the fleet a bit. 6 omen, 2 medusa, 3 paragon. Paragon is way more easy to use. I changed Paragon setup a bit too. Now in my game there is nobody bothering my colonies anymore :) The progress bar stopped. I 'm very happy. I did join the league without any payment. It removed the league and Hegemony. Made deal with the Kanto, no more pirates. Made deal with the tritacyon and got plus access. Made deal with the Sindrian and got bonus for fuel price. I'm not sure about the pathers. I recently destroyed their base I think because of that they are not in the progress. Maybe they will show up again later. I just want to share with you all.

    Man, vanilla difficulty suddenly feels like a joke, having watched some of your tutorials and gameplay. Loving the neural interface furies! Breath of fresh air for me, and they are strong.
    Feels weird to play vanilla after a dozen runs with 70+ mods, too easy. Don't have to worry about unknown ships and weapons every fight, knowledge is king!
    Naturally there's plenty of overpowered stuff with that many mods, but even more overpowered, unpredictable enemies until early late game where you automatically snowball with unique bounty ships and story points

    Please download Unnoficial New-Game plus and some other mods for more flavor. That way when youre near the "end" all you do is take some of your current fleet into a brand new "universe" with some of your stuff. Its almost like an extremely long term RogueLite mechanic.

      It is because of social media mind control. It is main source of entertainment for them. I think that single-player Video games are the best source of entertainment because it doesnt have all the data collection, and methods of influence techniques. I hope you agree with me.

      @@windowsexe6084 I mean I just wanted to make a comment about the master chief game joke, but ok.
      I don't believe gen z themselves are the problem - they're just kids. (and young adults now but whatever). The problem is that social media companies have zero regard for morality and want people to use their apps more - they do this by intentionally making their apps addictive, and running algorithms that push whatever content seems to be getting the most clicks even if it's morally questionable. Mobile game ads, mainstream Tiktok, UA-cam Kids... they amaze me by being so bad and not illegal. Not to mention I keep hearing stories about UA-cam displaying scam ads, but I can't confirm anything since I'm an adblock user. (fun fact: the FBI encourages you to use an adblocker for safety reasons)
      I wish gen alpha doesn't follow the same path as my generation, but it seems everything that can go wrong in this world just goes wrong.

    Mah man, look up the bottom of the mice you aim to buy, and make sure you can see the screws. If not, they are usually hidden behind pads, which requires some de-sticking and re-sticking, so at least look up if that's easier with whatever you want to buy. Long story short, all the double clicking and scroll wheel problems can be resolved by opening up mice and cleaning them up from the inside from all the goop and dust and even hair that accumulates and mixes over time.

      Lots of good options there. Monitors, sunders, gryphons, champions, conquests, and pegasus are all strong ships. Midline has a noticeable lack of speedy frigates, so electronic warfare is probably mandatory to help capture points.
