FTL Hard mode, WITH pause, Viewer Ships! The Speedstrel, 3rd run
July 29, 2024 stream, playing FTL with ships created by our viewers! The last ship we play today is from Mr_Kheese and his Type DEF Rejects pack, and it is called: the Speestrel! This MLG Pro ship is all about speed, and looks like a Kestrel A moving too fast for human eyes! We start with 4 beam weapons, hacking, and a Weapon Pre-igniter! There is even a note about pro gamers completing this ship in fewer jumps, but we are going to get ALL the jumps! Get ready for a super OP run to end the day as we attempt to one-shot the boss in all 3 phases! GG, cookie time for fun ships from our amazing viewers today!

FTL Hard mode, WITH pause, Viewer Ships! The Crimson Lance, 2nd run

July 29, 2024 stream, playing FTL with ships created by our viewers! The next ship up is from FwiffoForce and his ship pack called Ur-Quan Masters! This is apparently a pack of ships based on an older game, and there are a LOT of ships in this pack. Unfortunately, the first 2 ships we try are either super weak or a little buggy...but we still try to play out the Crimson Lance ship! Apologies if...

July 29, 2024 stream, playing FTL with ships created by our viewers! The first ship up today is from the amazing RPGNerdos, and it is called the Scug Hunter (or the Solitude)! This sleek ship is inspired by a game RPG loves called Rain World, and the main mechanic of this ship is a crew called a Slug Cat, or Scug, who boards enemies to collect meat. There is an interesting mechanic where this c...

July 26, 2024 stream, playing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree! We have got the heals, now it is time to get the damage! We take a short break from fighting Radahn to get a spell called Impenetrable Thorns and a staff that boosts thorns sorcery damage to see if that will be enough to whittle down Radahn. The damage seems pretty good on our first attempt, so hopefully we can persevere and get ou...

July 26, 2024 stream, playing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree! After some preliminary attempts vs. Radahn, I basically settle on the strategy of trying to heal up our summoned helper Taylew the Golem Smith while the other 2 summons damage the boss. It takes some learning and MANY deaths, but I get pretty good at using the spell Heal From Afar to keep Taylew up...basically forever. However, we ...

After that fun prep fight, we head into, most likely, the hardest From ...
FTL Hard mode, NO pause, Random Ship Streaks! Stealth C, 4th run

July 25, 2024 stream, playing FTL on hard difficulty with NO pausing! Apparently, this streak is all about the C ships because the next ship we random is: Stealth C! This is an interesting ship since it has no shields and no cloaking, but does have good weapons and some drones for defense. This ship can be quite difficult before we get shields online, but finding an early weapon upgrade can be ...

July 25, 2024 stream, playing FTL on hard difficulty with NO pausing! We are back to cycle streak attempts, and the first ship we random today is: Slug C! This ship is quite strong since it starts with hacking, but only a chain laser for a weapon is not amazing. And this run gets spicy (salty) REAL quick with the first jump! Hopefully, we can survive some very difficult early game fights to get...

And not only is she ugly, but she kicks my butt MANY times. Get ready for some salt as we try to take on this boss with crazy AoE with just our Smithy summon and some spells! Hopefully, we can get th...

After taking down the side quest boss Bayle (who was easier for my build than some of the mini bosses), we next work on a side quest involving fingers!

We begin with the side quest to hunt down a big dragon named Bayle. We fight some smaller dragons along the way and other mini-bosses, but the big bad dragon himself is looking pretty rough with his missing limbs! Hopefully, we can hav...

July 23, 2024 stream, playing FTL on hard difficulty with NO pausing! We had a pretty good run on the Zoltan C to start a new streak, with a LOT of free weapons. The next ship we random is MUCH stronger with its starting build, it is: Engi C! This ship starts off with dual lasers, a beam drone, but most importantly of all, Hacking! If we can get a good sector one, we should definitely have a go...

We took a bit of a break from streaking with some challenge runs the last couple weeks, but I figure if I am going to suffer through Hard, NO pause, I might as well go for more personal best achievements! So, since the ship that killed our 37 streak was the Zoltan C, we start the next streak attempt getting our revenge. Hopef...

TIL you can heal your summons, nice job.
There are no evidence to suggest that Rand was speedhacking. The defendant was clearly speedwalking as shown.
You know, I've got to give RPGNerdos some credit for designing a ship that fixes crew training exploit. Boarding ship with good weapons on start is already overpowered and auto-ships are a traditional weakness. I dunno if it was overpowered on purpose. Crystal race in vanilla is already supposted to be for how hard they are to unlock.
Francis John!
Yeah the 48 jumps "world record" is the least amount of jumps I was able to win with while playtesting this ship. The strat was pretty much b-line for the exit, all you really absolutely need is max weapons and hacking. I added a little meandering in sector 6 and 7 to find a store with cloaking. I also just barely managed to add shields 2 right before the boss. So kind of Rand to not attempt dethrone me, he knew my fragile ego couldn't take it ;)
Really cool man, thank you so much for the efforts! I'm bowled over that there's a seemingly endless supply for Rand to show us 😊 Appreciate you dude 😃
Now, THAT'S a thumbnail
Definitely some intense (overly laborious) criticism on the ships. I think if you get the sensation that your feedback is too negative think of things that you might include in the creative process, like which upgrades should be adjusted and what things you hoped it might contain from the initial concept.
This run has the best RNG ive ever seen
Long time watcher here. Congratulations!
Skeleton sounds are like old good Everquest. Brilliant.
I will definitely use that salsa recipe but ill definitely be adding some tumeric and fresh habanero 😂
Strong streak starter!
The sounds seem to be exactly like Everquest
Yes, many of the sounds in this game are directly from EQ, although from my understanding, many of Everquest's audio files were used from some freeware or generic sounds back when it was developed in the 90's.
This is just you asserting your dominance :) fun watch!
53:15 they are called a nuisance. or a cluster, but that's less fun.
My Cousin Vinny is set in Alabama, and it's just a Brooklyn accent. you should also probably be made aware that guido is a slur for Italian-Americans.
Hmm, sorry if I used "guido" and was offensive...I think I was reading a twitch chat message. My apologies.
My worst run was 11 stores sector 5 no weapons and the only free weapon I got was a stun bomb 3 times I lost the run one jump before store number 12
So...Rand my son (20) and I have now started playing FTL and it's been great fun. It's also given me a very great appreciation for just how good you are at this game.
Nice, I hope you and your son aren't getting too salty like I do, hah!
*Incorrect information deleted.*
This is incorrect, the only thing that reduces artillery charge time is Automated Reloader. Comments like this with WRONG information is why I get frustrated by people giving "facts" and back-seating during the stream...confident misinformation is not helpful.
Huh. I THOUGHT that Weapons manning would reduce the time. Guess I'd better remove my incorrect information.
@@semajniomet981 No worries, it can be hard to keep track of everything. Just be careful when asserting things as fact without testing them...and you can help me do the same, hah!
Rand with hair? I wouldn’t recognize him. He’s got a Command and Conquer Kane vibe going. Rand doesn’t have a friend by the name of “Seth”, does he?
I’m surprised you still play FTL! Do you still play any of the mods though? Like captains edition?
I don't play CE but I do use Hyperspace and play viewer created ships every Monday. That's the most "modded" FTL I do since Captain's Edition and Multiverse are not as fun to me.
This was a crazy run
When doing a boarding run with hacking, I actually prefer to hack their medbay if they have one and use it as a trap when their weakend crew retreats to heal. I leave the hacking unpowered so they can freely enter the doors, then once the crew I want dead are inside, I power up the hack and activate it, melting the crew inside. It is super devious. Though I only do this if their weapons aren't an immediate threat to my ship. Sometimes it is more prudent to hack the weapons if they have something particularly dangerous.
ahah missile sound hit always makes me giggle, maybe im a bad person
For me its literally impossible since the physics are so freaking bad. I dont know if its due to me having KJR installed or just the newest version of KSP
I’m pretty sure one of your old videos on FTL got me into it around 2019, love to see that you’re still posting :)
Love the repair arm choice!
53:00 you can totally eat 12 chicken breasts before they go bad, you have 9 months to eat chicken that has been in a freezer before it goes bad. if you can't eat 12 chicken breasts in 9 months idk man
why is double defense drone bad?
Because usually when 2 defense drones are online at the same time, they will shoot at the SAME projectile, rather than taking turns. So if an enemy has 2 missiles fire at your ship simultaneously, your 2 defense drones will fire at the FIRST missile and ignore the 2nd missile unless you get really lucky. Feel free to try it for yourself if you don't believe me.
Are the ships only the C variants he is playing or is it just coincidental
Jut coincidence, he's playing Random
I'm choosing the ships randomly, which you can see at the beginning of each video. It's just RNG that the first 4 ships on this streak have been C variants.
FTL: YO RAND! I HEAR YOU LIKE BOARDERS!
Just started playing ftl this year... Love watching you play rand. It's great to see how a pro thinks about the game. Cheers to another streak!
Wait, did the undefeated streak end??
Yeah, ended at 37 with a wretched Zoltan C run.
@@alphax4785 brutal it was
Yeah...he did really well though
Yup, a couple weeks ago the Zoltan C ended my PB at 37 wins in a row.
@@rand118 I got caught up. It was a brutal run. Crew kill on phase two… But you did great! And congrats on a new PB!
Rand caught missing an achievement for the stealth cruiser 0:10
Interesting question if the option to tear out the artillery system (thus freeing the system slot for anything else) was available for say 40 scrap would you take it?
Depending on the run, definitely! There might be runs where you can't find weapons and Artillery is helping, but I have a feeling there are WAY more runs where spending scrap to replace Artillery with Mind Control or something else would make the ship MUCH stronger.
Honestly that early build with the lone Ion Blast and boarders feels more like what I would expect from your Zoltan equivalent of a Crown Victoria.
9:50 after training weapons, turn off weapons for faster training.
Nacho cheese bacon bits and onions
LoL I work 6:00 to 4:30 5 days a week
Why don't you streak Zoltan C for a while, since this is the streak killer? You got really good luck this run, but obviously you can't count on that happening even next run. If you were able to get more consistent with this ship, your streaking would probably improve drastically. I've only ever succeeded in one hard no-pause run (mantis b), so you're clearly a better player. just a suggestion.
There's so much RNG in EVERY run of Zoltan C that practicing it over and over doesn't seem very constructive. What more can we learn? I know how to position my crew, how to time my drones and weapons, how to vent boarders. What new strats will we learn with more repetitions? All of the best FTL players I know use the same strategies I use, so I don't think more repetitions will teach me more than "just get lucky" on this weak ship.
@@rand118 I'm too busy to catch livestreams, but remind me when you do hard no pause? Ftl is the only video game I like, imagine.
@@syrahtimm724 I play FTL on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, with Tues/Thurs being the 2 days I play Hard/NO pause streaks.
OMG that 3rd phase Rebel Flag ship was perfect! Well done man
Kestrel Adventures run like stealth a lot of Humans one mantis one Rockman and one Engi
Yeah Lanius B can be tricky but it is still one of my favorite ships.
Rand Can you play Lanius B next? I really like the Lanius boarding strategy. One of the most unique and coolest strategies in FTL IMO. 🤞
Lol...if I could choose, sure! Sadly, this streak is "Random"...so, no promises!
Uh man what do you have against stun bomb? Lol I'm joking I know it's bad :)
Someone actually posted a "speedrun" using Engi B; first jump, offer crew to slavers -- gg.
year 9000 ftl travel is possible and boarders always have the crawl out of your ass technology
I dont play this game anymore but I enjoy watching your no pause runs. Thanks for the content. P.S. please dont swear so much 😅
You were thinking of "car wars" by Steve Jackson Games, which was licensed to create the 8-bit game Autoduel.
Came here to say the same thing!!! I used to play with my older brothers when I was like...8.....I wasn't very good...
