I found the fix to be quite funny and thought to myself "won't it just be a matter of time until all docks are blocked?" - and indeed, when I went to test it out 5 minutes into the hotfix they're all blocked. Dagobas will have to hibernate a while longer.

The game does deserve its shitstorm, why you may ask because not being a fanboy doesnt blind the technical problems and missing features this game has. Ive played X since X2 and i have to say X4 feels like its in Beta. No VR/TrackIR support, bugs, CTD for some, Stupid AI the list goes on. So i have...

I can only assume most of you did not play X3 - Reunion upon release :D The forums back then were in a similar state, full of "I want my money back" & "complaint No. x" threads. The thing with egosoft is that they don't launch a game and abandon it, they provide content and very relevant improvement...

So... Someone else noticed how the egosoft.com front page is automatically redirected to X-Rebirth's info page?

Edit: Well, that was corrected at lightning speed

This has probably been asked before but I wasn't able to come up with anything searching. Terran capital ships show a possible weapon loadout in the colour bars which is not named in the weapon list. Is this intended (i.e. is it related to an unnamed weapon) or a bug? You've got my thanks for this a...

I don't see the X saga ever working with multiplayer without some major changes as to how the game works in single player right now, and I'm totally fine with that.

That said, I wouldn't mind having a death match option where you could test your fighting skills against that of other players.

Depends on how easy you want the start to be. For me, the most fun starts are those where you start with almost no money and a barely equipped M5

Gosnell, tornado missiles don't feature a seeking system, meaning they go straight ahead after launch. So you have to be pretty close to your target in order not to miss.

I have awaken from my gamerless slumber and so I come asking for suggestions on what to play. I'm looking for games that have a trading strategy component like railroad tycoon, Anno and the likes.

Funnily enough, in my google research most suggestions pointed towards X games

Any ideas?

Yesterday I was going to post here saying that I never ever seen an LX bail in TC, until I captured one a few hours later

I'll probably go as far as to partly blame egosoft for affecting my career choice

I've been using 10*disco haulers to automatically sell dragonfly missiles from family zein to family pride equipment dock. Same thing would not be possible with freighters as they would load more missiles than they could sell and I'd have to restart the manual command every time. However, there is o...

Been having some problems with the weapon dealer facilities, the docks are there but they have 0% hull and ships cannot dock at them, any ideas on how to fix this? I paid attention to the installation order so that should not be the problem.

Thanks!

At what range are you attacking your target? If you time the missile launches properly then the Flails should get there slightly before the pods. Last attempt was at 14Km. The pods arrived in between a bunch of flails, but the ship selectively shot down the pods, being hit by the flails. That's not...

So lately I've started investing in marines and I managed to capture an Akuma without much hassle and the marines were not even that well trained. Moving forward, I decided to try and board a pirate capital ship (M1,M2,M7, whichever I see first). However, I'm having problems taking down their shield...

I probably take restarts way too seriously. There are maybe two games where I achieved having an M2 and a few hundred million in my account, but I almost always restart shortly after having my first M7 or similar. Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if I had played at least 20 games in TC alone. For ...

I remember reading that ammo type guns firing OOS uses ludicrous amounts of ammo. Do NOT use ammo based guns OOS. GCs are awesome in sector but not out :) This. I had 8 cannons equipped in my Akuma for personal use, but when I ordered it to patrol some sectors the ammo was used extremely fast (and ...

The use of missiles by the AI is a bit broken, even with bombers. I've been playing with a few mods in my game that fix that, and I fear M7M's even when I'm flying an M2 with mosquito missile defense on. Same applies to bombers when I'm flying something smaller.

Not exactly. These are some dusty memories, but IIRC, chemical rockets are limited by the speed of the burn. The rocket can not outrun the flame front. For some reason, 1/2 the speed of the flame front for a final speed seems familiar. It's why the fuel for hypersonic craft has to be switched to hy...
