Because there's so totes never any issues when building a new engine and implementing the core stuff, nor false starts with game design :roll:

Probably they're trying to work out and implement a solution to the current trade ship woes that wont break trading again.

So expect a day or more before another patch :P

Was going to dive back into X-tended for TC, but my install's got the dreaded "read text" error for the AL settings, so I have to redownload TC and rebuild all the damn 3rd party scripts + redo the fix for the station delivery script, along with diving back into the scripts that control loot drop ch...

This thread makes me /facepalm hard. Why?

The problem isn't that there wasn't enough money The game was post-poned 3 times for 2 years altogether. So no, there was aparently money for 2 extra years of development, they just ****** it up. /facepalm Because developing a new engine is so totes always a smooth ride with no major stumbling bloc...

The installed turrets and drones when it's finally working. This - except, that you better don't plan on getting this anytime soon since it's not really on their published list to get non-player combat working.

Well, if you know about the beta test patch thing, combined with the state of the game at launch*, it becomes somewhat highly probable that they just didn't have time to implement more than a bare minimum of weapons. Frankly Deep Silver and egosoft should have extended the development time by 6 mont...

Well to release the game in this state, kinda begs the question. Have they? They've released pretty much every game in this state (well actually worse but I digress). For those who didn't have the experience of playing X2 or X3 at launch... X2 - crash, crash and more crash for 4 months with large-i...

The only responses on the forums this weekend will be people moaning about tiny pointless things. The ones of us enjoying the game will be doing so quietly for most of the weekend I expect ^_^ Think of what the steam forum will be like :o It'll make the egosoft forums look heavenly by comparison.

Nice system spec... if that was your intention all along then why mention the Q6600 and 2GB of RAM?

If you are talking about spending more than £200 (or local equivalent) on an upgrade I would not settle for less than an Intel i-Series, AMD FX-series, or AMD A-series motherboard bundle (CPU+MoBo+RAM pre-assembled).
