So got this on last sale with gift card from last Xmas, paid like 7$ out of my own money.

This is the most amazing game I’ve ever played. Im on my second save after restarting my 1st save at like maybe 10 hours. My current is about 40+.

I want to thank the random mad lad who gave me like 3 40 stacks of something in the anomaly that when sold I had like 3.5 billion units.

I have a small garage of ships I collect, trying to get one of each of an s-class. I already have a friegtgher I like at c-class and am working on to upgrade or buy better.

So my question is how do others play this game? I basically am a mobile merchant, I buy cheap from one system and sell to another for high profit, and also just explore and do stacked missions.

For example, yes I know it’s mean to kill random animals, but I usually have like 2 cull creatures, a scan mission, and resource gather because I can do all in one trip.

I feel like I’m further in the altas missions than anything else for main because I just talk to them and explore the system and spawn my freighter in because my explore is s-class and just OP.

So second question is am I wrong for this? I feel just reading the atlas and focusing on that makes me feel like I’m just pleasing that entity and it’s wrong because idk the atlas feels like a bad thing but it has some points like the rest of the game lol.

For the glory of Hirk, can someone please explain to me how you defeat these behemoths? I’ve come close, but it always manages to destroy the civilian freighter and/or warp away.

On a related note, is the only way to get an S-class freighter to destroy a dreadnought?

Update: I was today years old when I realised you can divert power to your ship’s weapons, engines, and shields. Diverting power to the weapons helps for exactly 60 seconds before my shield drops and I get my ass kicked.
