Colony Ship Early Access Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Vault Dweller]

ooh. time to explore the habitat and see what changed!

Mainly Hanson-Silas quest, combat quest if you kill the spy (the epic fight for junction F14), some banter, new dialogues, and visual improvements.

 

[jackofshadows]

Is my current run fucked if I didn't set foot into Habitat yet?

 

[Pink Eye]

WOAH! This is new!

 

[Pink Eye]

Duuude. These new guns are sooo freaking cool:

The Webler MK2 also looks awesome too!

 

[jackofshadows]

These new guns are sooo freaking cool:

They aren't exactly new, I'm pretty sure both shotgun and SMG were in the first combat build. Maybe even that revolver.

Okay, okay, what about THIS:

I'm drooling at how cool this pistol looks!

 

[Marat]

Congratulations on this important milestone.

A brilliant confluence of skill and purpose!

 

[Ninjerk]

I have to stop reading this thread or I'm going to end up playing it before I'm ready.

 

[Pink Eye]

Speaking of which. Man. I'm tellin' ya. These new guns are SEXY!

Damn, still no cybernetics?

Not sure I like still not gaining anything if you frontally assault the Black Hands

Not the time yet.

We'll look into adding some rewards in there when we do a second pass on the factory content.

Having trouble with making a reliable Pistol build, it feels like high DR enemies barely take any damage if you don't crit

What about a Diry Harry?

There should be enough punks around.

Hmm. How much penetration ya packing? All my Pistolero builds have been on Faythe. Her innate penetration from Assassin with Sharpshooter + Redeemer allow her to chew through enemy DR.

I'm using Evans with Pistolero and Fast Draw, no other sources of innate penetration... must be that
He's really good at aimed shots / debuffing but won't kill enemies for shit, meanwhile the run where I built him for Rifle crits he was 2 tapping everyone with long arm of the law

 

[Pink Eye]

Try Aiming Torso. It also gives you +30 Penetration. If you still have an extra feat to spend. Buy Sharpshooter for Evans. That's another +10 Penetration. Also what pistol is he using? Redeemer which you find at Mission Control on dead body gives 10 penetration too.

Was using the Bulldog II, must have missed the redeemer, unless you're talking about the "dead" Biotech 3 body

 

[Pink Eye]

Yeah that "dead" body

 

[Salvo]

Yeah that "dead" body

I'm too much of a moralfag to do it

 

[Pink Eye]

Well if you can wait till you get to Factory you can find the Hauser 67 semi-automatic pistol which does grant 10 penetration too.

Are the level 6-7 checks in Habitat going to be permanent / in release version too? They're very high unless you're 100% specialized

There was a lot of discussion on Steam forums and they said that "they aren't set in stone" plus you'll have some easier checks to level up with Habitat side content before tackling these.

Is tagging Biotech worth it? It's somewhat easy to get it to 5 and by that point you're only missing out on Subdermal Armor (which isn't that great anyway), and better medkits are a non-issue since you have so many
You can save a tag and shift it to something combat related or even another civ skill

Not tagging it could even be better in some cases. You basically can get bonus electronics XP by fixing broken (not ruined) implants.
