Our writer Tom Jubert has returned along with special guest writer Chris Avellone (of Planescape fame), who managed to find some time for us between his work on Project Eternity and Wasteland 2.

FTL isn't meant to have saves. It's basically more of a "how long can you survive" game, since it's hard to actually clear it.

FTL is a rogue-like game, another example of such game might be "the Binding of Isaac".

It has saves, unlike that laggy POS Binding of Isaac.

The Advanced Edition even allows you to save during battles.

I mean i want to have few saves and i can back to the place i left couple of times. Im not the one to play the game hundreds of times to unlock sth.
One mistake and im done. Not for me. And the dev cann always implement that option in hard mode and let me play on easy or normal how i like.

Doesn't seem to address any of the issues I'm having with the game. But since more is always better I look forward to this.

Which are your issues with the game?

I hope they introduce better mod-support. The ability to add multiple ships, sectors, events, races, etc.

I thought they already had many mods out there for it? Complete with new ships, scenarios, sectors etc.

They have and they are ok. The problem is that most of these mods (especially those containing events) do not work together with other mods of the same kind. Modders have to rewrite parts of the game instead of adding new parts.
