Using search 'planet' to keep track of the prices for goods is a good habit.Д¤) You dont necessarily need scanner (or shield generator) in early game. Needless to say, that turned my starting ship to a small tank.ДЈ) When trading goods with small ship, try to concentrate on luxuries, equipment and drugs (if you are playing as Pelengs who don't care that much about drugs) to get maximum profit. My best find has to be a strongster MM (+12 to armor) on second year, playing as Peleng. Sometimes you can get super lucky and find powerful artifacts or MMs early in the game. You usually find trade goods and other stuff worth selling when scanning planets. Bonus engine is also fairly good choice.Дў) Buy probe or two from science station ASAP. It gives you a clear advantage in many combat situations in early game. Some text quests are indeed quite rough, but beating them in the end is just satisfying.Д§ dollars for one of the best freeform space game is laughably little if you ask me.ДЎ) Pick missile launcher as a starting bonus. Maybe I've just gotten used to 'em, go figure. I find the spelling mistakes to be a part of SR2s charm. Extremely fun way to play pirate is to just camp in Peleng systems and rob, steal and maim every transport, liner and diplomat that isn't a Peleng. Pelengs are back-stabbing pirates by nature and Malogs just respect any great warrior, be it pirates or heroes. Pelengs and Malogs will hate if you shoot down their pirates. Quad torpedo apparatus smershs and triple disintegrator shtipts wreaking havoc on your home sector on the very first years is always really fun.Д«TW. Doms are just batshit crazy powerful and aggressive on that level. Some of the new equipment could be considered slightly OP, but nothing is OP enough when you have to tackle the enhanced 'impossible' difficulty in Reboot. The expansion adds all kinds of nifty features and fixes some exploits and problems (like farming nodes at pirate stations). It's really shame that GOG didn't get the Reboot version of the SR2. gizmos), dynamic war against the Doms, different game-types put together (text adventures, arcade shooter, RTS) and all kinds of strange insider humor.

Living, interesting universe, loads of things to do/acquire, addicting equipment/upgrade system (must.

As you may guess, it's one of my favourite games of all time. I have played standard SR2 through over 20 times and the Reboot version about 10 times. And at times all the fed-ex quests can get grating.Д«ut for seven dollars? I recommend anyone on the fence pick the game up. At times tedious, trying to find the right answers but still fun. Another was a banquet I had to manage with a Maloq prince. I came out of the scenario so liked by the prison management & guards, that I was instantly restored to excellent relations with all Pelengs. The text adventure from my stay in Prison was a lot of fun. I finally just docked on a planet and got hauled in. I don't know how, but the Peleng's got really upset with me. But my favorite part of the game was one of oddity. But still the very act of using strategy to destroy ships much strong then my own was satisfying. I just basically solo'd a Dominator invested sector, only to have douche Rangers pop up and steal all the goodies, leaving me with no loot to pay for my repair bill. Being able to actually kill things is nice. I finally have a ship that won't explode after two attacks and some decent weapons. But now I've been playing for a few days, and I've gotten the hang of it. And the learning process early was difficult. The learning curve was steep, but nothing compared to games like EU3. It reminds me of a space based Mount & Blade, but ten times as difficult. Which begs the question why GOG offers the base game for more money then Amazon charges for the stand alone expansion, but regardless. Last Saturday, I finally bit and bought the game for seven dollars on Amazon. It always peaked my interest, but I never bit. One of those indy gems that people batted around every so often. I'd heard of Space Rangers 2 for quite some time, specifically on these forums. I wasn't sure where to post this, since I'm not playing the version on GOG but it didn't seem to fit in general, so I'll just chance it.
