This is truly a nice update, I hope the guard captains drop better than average loot for the trouble of taking them down 's
Before reading anyone's comment I am pretty sure that the captain is the second one from the right I have never seen a dev team as devoted as chuckle fish
Captain is definitely the one with red hair!! Also, based on the current roadmap status, Starbound is 79.66% completed. Is this accurate?
Now to add that if you beat them enough the merchant changes their tune. Joking aside, this mean the merchants and such are smart now. Why sell amazing goods to some guy who is terrorizing your village? ^_^
It has already been said that this will be a part of the game, I'm just not sure it's in the beta yet.
Someone better create a mod for Starbound that adds in FTL: Faster Than Light combat when Starbound comes out.
