@@Chmmr34 that lander bug was awesome! I discovered it on my own by accident. I actually wanted to put it back in as an option when I was making Ur-Quan Masters HD.
Wow, you are a cruel and terrible monster. Why ever would you force poor Fwiffo to fight big scary aliens and traipse through the dark and scary galaxy in a constant state of sheer and overwhelming terror when you could instead be a nice hunam and let the poor, one-eyed mollusk kick back on the starbase, sipping Mai Tais with Commander Hayes?
Screaming "DODO-TWIT-LOSER-BABY" at the most powerful vessel in the entire Galaxy until it decides to give up on life. That's why this game is a classic..
@@stacythomas9916 This was probably the last game I played that I took actual physical notes for. Kinda miss those days, before auto-mapping and quest tracking.
@@charlesajones77 I agree a big part of the fun was in figuring it all out for yourself, and then replaying it to mess with doing stuff (or not doing it) differently
Oh yeah, I miss those days.. super fond memories of mapping out games like the first Might and Magic games, Ultima 6, and stuff like the deserts in the Kings Quest games.. you got your money's worth in those days!
@@stacythomas9916 haha. Yeah. I remember I wrote the name down wrong for one of the systems and it took me a whole week to figure out where I went wrong. And then my brothers took all my notes and then beat the game with them, before I could beat it. Lol. My fondest memory was I remember my brothers friend came over for a weekend and we played it from Friday to Sunday nonstop. We had it on the 3DO, such great times.
You did 5 rainbow planets on your first tour? I totally was not expecting that. Good job. But I guess, same goes for me completing the game without ever taking a planet lander outside Sol or clearing Sa'Matra with a single Chmmr. 1610 fuel :P Super-powered Sis = cool. Nice to see different sides of this game. Thank you for uploading this! Is it single segment?
I've tried this like 9 times now, starting at the beginning, matching the time stamp for every stop as you work through the first time in Sol... but when I'm finished and ready to head out to Alpha Pavonis, my clock says it's March 7th, not March 2nd. And every time, when I go for the quasi-space portal, it closes just as I'm about to enter..... and within seconds, I'm getting jacked by a slylandro probe. Grr... How the hell do you get out of the starbase on March 2nd?!?
Fuel Price to and from The Crimson Corp Store, 30 fuel with 1 fuel in “Navigation Error” Value of a Burvix Caster, 1610 Fuel Resource Unit conversion value of all fuel fed to the Starbase, 25,680 RUs That good feeling of totally screwing over a bunch of Greedy Slavers, Priceless
You spend 20 years on Vela building a Precurser service vehicle..Take the long hyperspace trip back to see your home planet. Almost get there and die on Mercury.
@dosperios1 Thanks. Yeah, these are not comparable. Though you weren't aiming for entertainment in favor of speed (with possible exception of the black screen scene with Talana), you ended up doing very well in that regard. For example, it was enjoyable seeing resource-efficient planet harvesting (with exception in the beginning; you should have concentrated on radioactives like I did). It carries the meaning without becoming tedious. I only was disappointed to not even get to read some dialog.
You have an interesting style of play. Made a lot of choices I wouldn't, but that's the me of the greatest things about this game: No wrong way to play it
Great playthrough but you're NUTS! For 7 reasons or rather 6 maybe or 5 lol 1.) Too risky with Mercury gathering minerals. You don't have that many people and you spend way too long when you just need a few to get the starbase up and running 2.) Don't fill with crew to go out. I worry about the Sylladro probes a LOT as I've already been ambushed right away after leaving Sol. 3.) Don't visit Pluto??? There are rare minerals there other than also a Spathi ship.- Fwiffo I believe his name is. 4.) How far you go the first trip out of the solar system!? I didn't catch the name of the system but it was practiclaly up near the Syllandro probe planet/area and where the gateway is to enter Quasi Space - What if a probe caught you along the way? I've already left Sol before and ran RIGHT into one before so I am always careful with crew now. 5.) It looks like it was Alpha Pavonis - Isn't that the planet you get the Ur Quan Warp thingy to open a gate to the Arilou or where the Syllandro are to negotiate the probe self destruct code? Why not handle that while you were there??? 6.) I like how you went for a lot of the rainbow worlds early though. 7.) I didn't see you do it but you should have gone to the one Il Wrath planet with the transmitter and act like their gods and screw w/ them LOL - I do that every playthrough hee hee :-D
I watched the video in its entirety now. Impressive 😀 1) Maybe, but risky means fast. I do it too actually when playing haha 2) Well done additional crew perhaps right 3) He went to Pluto right away to get fwiffo and the tzo 4) It was to get stuff. He got all full speed too 5) More exciting to dodge the probes! Also it would have taken time to go there then go through all the long dialog 6) Ya I agree 😅 7) It was done! Haha

i'm sad that not many people appreciate the pure bliss this game is.
Right!?!?
We lucky few
@@TheNeonTheater Yeah, but then you don't have the lander bug.... and the voices weren't that appealing to me.
@@Chmmr34 that lander bug was awesome! I discovered it on my own by accident. I actually wanted to put it back in as an option when I was making Ur-Quan Masters HD.
Because many games were inspired by Star Control, including Star Sonata 2 and Space Rangers. Star Control 2 is definitely a blast.
You scrapped Fwiffo's ship?! Sacrilege! I always made sure he survived the whole game.
Right? EVERY game
Wow, you are a cruel and terrible monster. Why ever would you force poor Fwiffo to fight big scary aliens and traipse through the dark and scary galaxy in a constant state of sheer and overwhelming terror when you could instead be a nice hunam and let the poor, one-eyed mollusk kick back on the starbase, sipping Mai Tais with Commander Hayes?
Scrapping his ship and storing him in the precursor vessel is the only way to make sure Fwiffo is safe!
Thou shalt not decommission Fwiffo.
and then the Druuge said "only a shipful", this is when the captain pulled out a comically large fuel tank!
Screaming "DODO-TWIT-LOSER-BABY" at the most powerful vessel in the entire Galaxy until it decides to give up on life. That's why this game is a classic..
Anyone remember playing this for the first time with no gameFAQS?
Sure do, it took me over a year and a half and a very fat binder full of notes to beat this as a kid

Actually there's a shortcut that could be used: Switching on Cyborg skips the Sa'Matra fight altogether.
That is what a walk through is for. lol
Played with UQM? Nice.
I did not expect scrapping Fwiffo.
fwiffo live
ive always wished the utwig shield wasnt red because it keeps looking like its gonna be destroyed. i think a blue or purple wouldve looked nice

Best... Game... Ever... though a true master takes ALL Arilou ships against the SaMatra
me too!
So wait...he was telling that entire story to his grandkids? Even the part where he boinks their apparent Syreen grandmother? Wtf?
why aren't the kids slightly blue in color??
@@patrickcummins79 The genes that determine blue skin tone are recessive.
Apparently so. Something I have always laughed at.
"Star Control" was full of innovative ideas. "Mass Effect" series adopted many of them.

Buying the fuel from Druugde is absolutely genius.
It was indeed ingenious
I think that was clearly intended by the developers of the game, to turn the tables on the scammers. 🙂
Ripping off the Druuge never gets old.
One of my alltime favourite games.

I'd forgotten how good the hyperspace music was.
54:35 - When you wake up in the morning and take pee... and it just doesn't stop!
You skipped the bit where the Druuge are pissed you made them broke?!
And I thought I was doing incredibly well, finishing just before the end of 2156. Incredible run!
I was 72 hours into playing this game tutorial and spoiler free, and after watching half of this speedrun I am still in awe.
5:04 WHAT
