Starbound Beta

#Ferozium

e: Shortly after Impervium, shortly after that, I found out that if you go high enough you will lose your character (Game crash -> Won't be able to reload), also will crash the attached server if on an mp server.
Already back up to Ferozium almost haha, this game is 3ez

 

30 hours in I was at full final tier gear, lost my character due to some bug searching, made it there again already. The game is fun, but will be much more fun when we see some more things come in

Spoiler: Actual Spoilers, don't read if you haven`t `finished` the game

1)ATM it's a bit easy and rewarding especially if you find the right stuff to play 'hard'
2)Fuel costs seem a bit low even later, with more people pooled it gets crazy
3)The bosses past the first one still cannot break dirt, this makes them piss easy, too easy
4)Finding an airship of a decent level is OP atm if you get the proper guns
5)Skipping tech levels is too easy, you can get tons of Aegisalt for the gear of Forzium (sp?), to last til Impervium
6)Rubium/etc is way too rich in higher level planets
7)Iron/Copper is nonexistant in higher level planets heavily losing the value of using ores as 'pixel storage' (Keep it in a refinery or in ore/bar form to refine later for money)
8)Unless there is some trick, I've found no use for regular village spawners, it doesn't seem they can become merchants or if they can the chance is extremely low, I've spawned 40-50 and have had not a single one turn into anything special.
9)Coords OP (I did the first playthrough without them, the second one using coords I knew personally)

Guns are too cheap.

 

Spoiler: Seriously don't read this if you don't want spoilers

For silver and gold, if you mean armor I skip them personally.

In order to easily progress you go find high level planets in your area. Find a lvl 10 airship by amassing fuel and checking many planets for an 'anchor' (or village), buy a lvl 10 gun, summon first boss with beacon, kill him.

You now have beta sector, find a lvl 20 airship village, get a new 20 AP gun, get the material (Iron+Coal->Steel) for the Robot, activate, fight, make Robotic Crafting Table.

You now have gamma sector, find a lvl 30 airship village, get a 30AP gun, get the material for the Decoy Princess (Titanium + Fabric), titanium can be found in lvl 20-30 planets, search around especially the higher level ones while you're getting the airship village to get enough titanium (50 bars). Summon the last boss, kill him.

You now have Sector X, find alvl 40 airship village and you can kill anything with the guns you buy there (or melee weapons) pretty effectively, until you find a 40+ melee weapon on the ground somewhere, preferably from Miniboss (Legendary), each planet has one, they have those red glowing things and are a bit larger.

From here you are looking for Aegisalt (32+), Cerulium (34+), Rubium (38-40 it seems)
Check for the Tech upgrades (Durasteel Tech Upgrade->etc), do them all in order, save enough Rubium (70 bars) for an Impervium set.
GG.

After that all you care about is tech and making a base. If you raid lots of villages you can find spawners which will give you things like Wizards, Doctors, etc for your village.

You can also put all of your stuff on your ship, don't put NPCs there they will try and drive your ship and get you stuck.
