Looks pretty cool. I will definitely try it. Did they make new races as well as the new universe or just the new universe?
Some of those ships look awesome as well. Especially the one with the flapping wings.
Looks cool, is it better than albion prelude in all aspects ?IMO, its better than X3:TC and albion combined, has so much more things to do, and the war between the races makes things interesting , i got rolfstomped by split invasion fleet :lol:
Lol panos, I suggest you only downvote people when they actually say crap. Which is admittedly fairly often for pingpong, but certainly not now.

Real men start with a weaponless and shieldless M5. In a Xenon sector.

Sorry to bump this, but this thread convinced me to dive into this game again.
Has anybody had any luck getting Gazz's Complex Cleaner to work with Xtended?
I've made this:but now my framerate in the sector is closing on the single digits. I'm also kind of sick of watching the 'build a station' animation.(click to show/hide)
Got mines? :rolleyes:
Oh btw don't buy a thresher. Sux ass, its main weapons are inaccurate as shit. I should've stayed with the swordfish. Only reason I bought the thresher was because of the ability to use artillery arrays.

Even though they are hands down theI have a few systems with complexes. This one is my primary moneymaker, however. I usually try to avoid spreading out too much early on, because that increases the number of M7s I need gatecamping / patrolling each sector.
Do you have stations in many sectors ? If not you might want to go for smaller, focused complex in different sectors.
Is it possible to build stations in enemy pirate/khaak/xenon sectors if u clear them of enemies initially? Or do they just respawn in the sector over and over.Without mods, they will continue to respawn. In X-Tended, killing the Khaak Hive / Xenon Station will prevent respawning, but be aware that adjacent Xenon/Khaak sectors will invade the shit out of you. I suspect that pirate sectors will continuously jump reinforcements in, but I'm not completely certain that's the case.
...I would recommend saving self-imposed rules for subsequent playthroughs.
In short, in both XTC and Xtended, how would you deal with those situations while also working around my own personal rules. Or would I simply need to loosen up on my own restrictions? Can I be pointed in the right direction on how to effectively use the scenarios that start you broke with an M5 or M4? Also, one other thing that is somewhat embarrassing on my end... how best to deal with M5's? They are annoying gnats that dodge all my shots. If the answer is missiles, what are the most cost effective that can fit in a fighter? I had tried mosquito missiles at first but wasn't impressed.
Currently I plan on the order of my games being: x3tc, x3ap, then xtended. My current game in x3tc is the boron game I mentioned earlier, in x3ap I hope to use Argon, and in extended either the paranid or split starts. (I'll probably choose the paranid start with the TL and simply self destruct the TL and go from there)

Also, for repairs - you can repair ships yourself. Your spacesuit is equipped with a repair laser - just eject and fire it at your ship.You don't get a repair laser in X-Tended, unless you set the difficulty to 'easy'.
Forgive me for being clueless, have followed this very lightly. But you can't fly other ships?!
Capital ship control
Where the drones are your preferred vehicles for specialized tasks inside and near the surface of a station, capital ships are your vehicle of choice for all the many "big" tasks. From transportation of goods, collecting of resources like ore, gas or plasma up to large carriers and destroyers. They all exist in X Rebirth and you can of course own and operate many of them!
You can in fact even land on these beasts and get out of your playership to meet NPCs while watching the large ship move around in space FROM the deck of the ship!
You won't be sitting in the cockpit and steer such a capital ship from the first person perspective anymore simply because that is boring. Steering huge and slowly-turning ships manually just doesnt make sense. It would force us to make them turn and move unrealistically quick and even then they would be impossible to maneuver near our huge and complex shaped stations.
Instead the steering is done by NPCs who work for you but closely follow your orders. You can control capital ships who work for you in many new ways.
Albion Prelude is the best of all X games in my opinion. Some people prefer Terran Conflict but for a beginner Albion Prelude is much better anyway. Don't even think about Rebirth, it's not an X game by any stretch of the imagination.
STRONG BUMP.
I was considering buying this game or rebirth. Rebirth seems to lack some of the options and complex ability to build that Terran Conflict has though. Plus you can have more ships and move around in different ones.
So I was wondering if anyone recommended Terran Conflict over Rebirth at this point since apparently there's been massive changes to Rebirth to make it playable and better.
Not sure if I want to play either but they do seem interesting.
Don't buy Rebirth.. :(
here's the game for you
Heya,
I bought X3:TC with Albion Prelude now and I have no fucking clue what I have to do. I start in space and don't even know how to move my ship properly, only thing I managed so far was to leave the ship and then be in space without being able to move at all.
Need help! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
I don't even know how to begin explaining that stuff. You should probably watch a beginner's let's play or something, it will be less painful that way.
EvE is actually very different because you can't have an empire of automated ships and stations, in X games you can and that's what most people are doing.
