I am so going to buy it - it looks AWESOME on YT.

Ok, after watching a few YT vids of this game, I am really hyped for it. Roll on release day! :)

FTL is great, but *very* difficult. I still haven't managed to beat the game despite trying more than 50 times and playing for over 20 hours. And that's on EASY difficulty. Beating FTL on normal difficulty seems utterly impossible to me. Then again, maybe I just suck at being a spaceship captain.

I've definitely been won over. I'll be picking this up on Friday for sure.

Stupid Friday being so far off...

I found it very easy to beat the game on Easy with the Engi Cruiser (you unlock it after reaching the 5th sector for the first time). Try it if you haven't. Plus having drones crushing the enemy to bits for you while you dwiddle your thumbs behind four rows of shields is fun !

Barring that, don't try to win at first, explore ! The other ships are unlocked via "quests" found in the alien homeworlds. Chose these sectors when you have the possibility and explore them to the fullest, you might just get ships that better suit your play.
The Stealth Cruiser is especially awesome.

Game is awesome. Need to play moar tonight.

I'd like to plan my friday, so: at what hour will FTL be ready to be bought?

And I still can not see it in catalog with "soon" info - I am doing something wrong?

They moved their release time to 10.00 GMT, so that should be when FTL is seeing a release here.

A new release on friday? That would be something new. Maybe GOG plays a Joker and releases it one day earlier? ;)

But a few other games with specific release dates didn't release at 11:00 GMT *cough*Botanicula*cough*

OR *looking at Deponia* GOG is releasing the game later than the competition.

A shame that it only comes with a few music tracks and not the whole soundtrack; but I guess if it did have the whole thing it would be unfair to the kickstarter backers who had to pledge $40 to get it.

A release next Tuesday would be fine with me as well. A few days earlier or later don't really matter much to me, as long as I get to play the game in the near future.

I know it sounds childish but I'll be a very sad panda if it doesn't get released on GOG on Friday. I can't wait any longer than that, I must have it ASAP! :)

Yeah. In fact, I suspect I'll simply buy it from the first (non-steam) place were it'll be available.
