Any fans of FTL here? Not much here regarding multiplayer, but it helps get me my 'starside' fix.
I have found the game to be very difficult. I've beaten iron easy, and have gotten to the final boss once on normal. One of the features I like about the game is the replay ability. The variety of the starships let you play in different ways much like a class would differentiate you in fantasy games. Its good times. Check it out if you haven't yet.

The best way I have found to win was using a cloaking device, and several low powered (1 or 2) lasers that shoot three pulses. If you go for the 4 power versions, it takes about 19 seconds to charge and you get five shots. If I have two lasers that take two power each, they charge around 12 seconds each and both put out 3 shots. So that's less time to charge, and more output. Plus, I can micro between missiles, bombs, or beam weapons. So stick with low power weapons, and get a cloak. While you're cloaked, they are not charging their weapons.
