If you have 10 shots in your lasers but they shoot at different times, you waste all your firepower on shields. Wait until everything is charged, then unload it at once. | ||

Sorry to hear that  Better luck next run. | ||

On another note, anyone knows how the score is calculated in this game? Oo i had a 5500something run yesterday with the rock cruiser, and just now i had the most epic run ever with close to 3000 scrap collected, had almost 1500 cash at one point and upgraded to this thing before the last boss phase: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/3uwIy.png) [brag]normal difficulty of course ^^[/brag] but then when i beat him only got 5083 points Oo so apparently collecting all the scrap in the entire universe and upgrading your ship to max on essentially every single system doesn't score very well. | ||

Sometimes you just dont anything good at stores/encounters and you have no chance of winning at all. Fortunatly games tend to not last all that long so you can just keep trying. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Use the rock ship every time to increase chances of getting damaged stasis pod, and have been able to consistently get one every playthrough. But THEN finding the Zoltan researchers to fix the pod is another story. Only happened once, got the crystal dude and it was pretty cool boarding with him. And THEN you gotta be lucky and have a rock homeworld coming up (which did not happen on that one time I unlocked the stasis pod). Reading the walkthroughs, there's an unmarked random node in the rock homeworld that you have to stumble upon. Screw this, I got assignments to do... | ||

Before this I've been trying to go double Ion double Halberd, but man the above loadout just cleans right through him. | ||

You can pretty much clear the boss with it and any other decent weapon. | ||

I'm just an OCD completionist T.T I've already unlocked every other ship, and type B's for 6 out of 8 of those. Still trying for that secret ship, still no success. I've got to temporarily uninstal this game before exams. | ||
