All you hard core X3-R/TC players can you help me out? I recently purchased X3 Gold and I"m looking for a modern compatible Joystick. Anyone got a driver bug free favorite for a Windows 7-64 Bit User? Anyone use Saitech X52 with W7-64Bit? Whatever informative feedback I can get is appreciated.
You don't play X3TC for an engrossing story or voiceacting or whatever people keep bitching about, you play X3TC to engage in rapidly escalating space fights and to conquer the universe, one missile frigate salvo at a time.
Egosoft needs to get off their asses and make an mmo out of this series, like they said they were going to do fuckin 10 years ago. These single player games are getting worse and worse. The characters are terrible.. the voice acting is atrocious.. the only thing that can save this series is a strategic move to the web.
I love X: Beyond the Frontier.. but they needed to jump from there to an MMO.. everything after the original has been crap. Sorry.
I'm afraid it's VERY complicated. Freelancer is a greatly watered down version of elite, with more random gunfights and arcade space actions and less hardcore simulation. X3 is a step back towards that complexity and slightly past it, but that complexity brings with it entires fleets, pan galactic trade empires, space stations and wars to your fingertips.
If you liked freelancer for it's arcade dogfights and story then X3 won't be for you. If you like the economic/exploration side, then maybe.
Freelancer unfortunately was cut short by release date and limited funds(Damn you microsoft) IT was a beautiful game that catered to a more casual demographic. Unfortunately the universe was kind of bounded after you completed the story and found everything in the universe. But overall it was a seemless beautiful game with excellent dogfights and a generally good story.
That's not to say the fighting in X3 isn't fun, it's very fun. But it's also very unforgiving and realistic, there will be days early on where you'll be flying for your life because your ship just hasn't the firepower to deal with the mess you walked into ;)
yup, i just realized that, i aLWAYS die, and i have to run away from fights, but nice game tough, excelent graphics.....i liked much more freelancer... :)
well, im struggling with the story, the controlls, the gameplay style....so nothing more to say, i think i will give up this game, i don't have that much patience... :P
I disagree Freelancer had a much better story than X3 even though it was very silly nevertheless. X3 had the much bigger universe which was beautiful and had the best trade system I have ever seen.
If only some creator could fuse both good elements of those two games together would we have teh greatest space sim ever!
To anybody who wonders how this game is. I can say something short about it. If you like Space RPG games you will love this! You can fly around in everything from a little fast ship to a gigantic Capital ship! There are also very very very many secro maps who can be everything from tiny to gigantic! If you love space, you will love X3 Terran Conflict!!!
there a loading screens when traveling from "system" to system (dunno what they're called), by a gate (like in freelancer) but everything happens in RT...
you cannot bypass sectors like in star trek, there is a gate network which is quite big actually, However, in a sector, you can fly around, in case you can even travel around the planet, however thats actually nonsense since the radius containing the stations are actually small usually. In the sectors again however, there is a limit, what if you pass, the game gets buggy and you get teleported to the other side of the sector. But it takes a LOT of time to get there without cheats.
And for the missiles, after you install them, just press L to fire missles after u lock on to the target (some swarmer missles dont need to have the target so find out the specs for the missle you want to get). In some cases the missle wont show up after you install them so in that case press M. You can also use M to switch to different types of missles if you have them installed on your ship.
Just go to "My Current Ship" then go to "Command Console." From there u can tell your turrents to protect the ship, atck all enemies, missle defence and so forth and when u want to control a turrent by youself just switch to the turrent and the auto pilot will disengage. When you switch back to flying the ship the auto for the turrent will activate agian without the need to manually turning it back on
Hey I have a question, how do I make the turrets on my M1 ship go off automatically? How do I fire missiles? It's a bit hard this game hehe. I have a fleet of 1 M1 carrier, 4 M7 frigates and 50 M3 fighters on board my carrier but it still takes a fair while to deal with an opposing force. Especially because I have to individually fire every single turret.
i just learned that if you get steam and then download this game it will automatically link to steam. Then steam will automatically undate your game with all the patches. i got soo happy cause i have a steam account and i don't need to worry about updating it manually now.
It is very conflict oriented; however, maybe not enough ( I still run into and participate in huge battles in border sectors regularly). I think the biggest battles need to be exceptions.
It is FAR more action and conflict heavy than X3Reunion.
For really militant people, there's a cool mod called CONFLICT MOD that turns the whole X3TC galaxy into a giant battlefield with actual alliances. It has a crapload of fighting going on at all times.
First you have to check prices of wares that station need to keep producing their own stuff.
If a factory haven't got much ressources, it'll buy at a higher price these ressources, then, find a station that sell as a product the ressource with a low price, buy as much as you can, then sell them to the station that need it.
You should go on ES forum, there are more information on TC ;)
well my bro was guna get fallout 3 for the xbox, and since im gittin this compy as my compy then i can get x3 for the PC. cool i like games that are kinda hard to learn. (that way i can ask my friends over and when they ask to attempt to play x3 i shall let them...and they shall be utterly confused. ive played EVE though...are the controls similar? well now i can have my cake and eat it too!!
well lol then twice has good for you. i like x3 terran clonflict but it has moments even if you have a super computer that it lags. the game is nothing like eve. I love eve. lol asking friends is fun isnt it?
Typisch deutsche Arbeitsmoral, unfertige Scheiße auf den MArkt zu schmeisen !
Selbst mit dem Patch 1.3 ist alles immer noch im Arsch. Es sind so viele Fehler, ich will garnicht auf einzelne eingehen, aber das ist so traurig, dass so ein megaspiel so vergeigt wurde ! Echt, als ob die die Hauptquest nicht ein einziges mal gespielt hätten. Meine Mutter sieht sogar die bugs und die weis net mal wien pc angeht. echt arm....EGOSOFT. Kaufe nie wieder was von euch.
I have just destroyed my Terran Conflict DVD, the box and the book either...FUCKING GAME !
I had everything but couldnt finish any Quest !!!
I swear...Its like the developers didnt even look at their game. They didnt even play it, because if they would have played it, they would recognise their stupidness.
EVE online is a different kind of game. Ud be a moron to try to compare them (no offence). I play both. X3 is more of a space simulator since you aim and shoot... That is just a small difference in comparrison to others. But if u whana compare them here: One thing x3 has and EVE dosen't is the ability to build and costumize stations. Eve is a multiplayer game and x3 isn't. etc... like i said 2 different games and u can't say any of them is better untill u played end game content in both of them.
well EVE online has no storyline so its pretty much a do what you want game and nobody will care, while X3 Terran Conflict has a storyline and is single player
No storyline? EVE has a HUGE storyline, and expands across all races in the game. You can always choose to ignore that aspect of the game, but I think it's more fulfilling if you actually participate in storyline missions and/or join a militia.
The better EVE content and freedom is found in corps, in null...Risk vs Reward. That's why it's online so actual player ships threaten your asset pool.
Cool looking bots would be the thing that kills gameplay for me as usual(Oblivion offline). But if X3 is a s detailed as they say, I'm still going to try it.
Bugger X3's plot, first thing I did was tell the plot to go fuck itself, and went about making my interstellar Empire, so far i've managed to completely crush the Boron out of the 'South Eastern' edge of the galaxy by allying myself with the Split. Fuck yes.
I hate that planets in x series are backdrops. You can't fly around a planet, just things like asteroids etc. Even in Elite on 8 bit computers you could fly around a planet.
you CAN fly around planets..but it would take hours or days in normal speed because the planets have a realistic size and you are too slow to recognize it while just flying through a sector..if you cheat and make an extremely fast ship you can see the planet growing,when flying to it's direction. just look at the video "x3 reunion blitz 33000m/s"

Hey I'm thinking of giving this game another try, but I want music to make it seem more intresting. That way I'm not just flying (slowly, I wish they added cruise engines or something like in Freelancer), through space and hearing not even the engine on my ship. No engine noise. That too sucks. I know space is meant to me noisless, but you can hear your lasers and not your engines.
Ah man I played this game. I thought the same as you smithers, action mad fun. Instead its more strategic and slow. Not really my kind of game. Im sure once ya get mad fun ships and stuff the action might get better, but I'm not too eager to sit and wait for that to come. Btw, I dont get any music (and yes its the legal version)
Yes, it's available for download by link in the X3 Dev team's blog, which is reachable on the official website I think, if you have trouble I'll find a link for you.
I wish they paid some attention to the way stuff takes damage. I mean, a fricking health bar? For a capital ship? You can't even target subsystems like engines or weapons in X3 - it uses the same system used in early 90s strategy games like C&C. You can kill a ship by firing at an insignificant part of it for a long time which sucks ass. if they sorted this out it would be a decent game.
It's not a strat game. It's a spacesim. Made by an indie company at that. Yes, it would be nice to have subsystems, but for what it has, it's fantastic. If you want complex spacesim, you have only a few choices, Derek Smart's BC/UC series, X series, or some of the really old titles (can't think of any off hand).
Sorry if this post seemed a little bashing, but I was responding to your harsh tone and the fact you compared it to a strategy game :(.
I know what type of game it is, since I own X2 and X3 Reunion. The only part of the game I was comparing to an early 90s strategy game for sophistication was the combat damage system which is identical to most early strategy games. Some modern ones however have actually surpassed it :/.
He compared the damage system to a strat game, and honestly, it's a fair comparison, because it is identical.
Unfortunatly this is a huge problem for me as well. Games keep coming out with better graphics, but developers never pay attention to what actually matters.
Only to intelligent people, can things be compared in such a way. I get a little guffed when I see people try to compare generally unrelated genres (its a hybrid, still doesn't make it an actual strategy) because the dummies out there start expecting it to play like a strat :P
Ummmm ok I didn't actually say that. I said you can't target subsystems - doing so wouldn't necessarily have to result in destroying the ship. Are you telling me you think its better to hide behind a capital ship for 15 minutes shooting it in the most insignificant place waiting for its 'health bar' to go down? Get real.
Ugh, you fail to understand yet again - have YOU played X3? I have actually, and a popular tactic was to sit in a ships blind spot - hiding from its weapons - firing at it for a good 20 mins. This is unsatisfying on so many levels and really sucks. It was my main problem with X3 Reunion, and will probably be the same in TC.
So, maybe just take a capital ship at your own to destroy another capital ship? I did it with an m3+, sure it take some time with that. But at least it is a fight with a small fighter against a huge capital ship. What do you expect?
EVE is gay... Combat sucks donkey balls and ship controls are stupid. When will Egosoft finally release X-Universe online... HURRY UP! or else I'm stuck with Gta 4 and Halo :(
this looks like wing commander!hahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahaha
x series rule got them all original!EVE is just a way to spend your money all mmporg shit is like a casino pay for this pay for that etc.....
they sould make time cards illegal since i bought the game they should give me the chance to enjoy it without having to pay every month i allready gave you mofos 60€ you want to milk me like a cow?fuck mmpron!
what the hell is this ballshit talk of copying other peoples ideas? thats how things evolve people! taking ideas off others, imaging into your own way and improving it, thats the way to go. there is nothing wrong with that attall. if the games good i will play it, i dont care if it took ideas from anouther game, good on them! otherwise we all stuck in a loop never going forward just diffrent basic ideas over and over again.
Well 2 things. its not a mmorpg, and the X series existed A LONG ASS TIME before EVE. So EVE is a copy paste of X3. :) and since i played both X3 is a lot more complex then Eve. Not only the size of the universe wise but also economic complexity and pretty much everything else from fighting to transporting civilians.
I second that, and i don't even have to read the Comments you are refering to, i know they are there. What a waste of words and letters, dipshits wherever i look.
Are you stupid EVE is an online Universe 100x bigger them any of the X games.
The Economy in X is controlled buy one person you the player. In EVE the Entire economy is controlled by the players. X gets boring after a week due to the fact your paying yourself, this take no skill at all.
to say X3 is a lot more complex then Eve is just showing what a idiot your are. No generic single player game can never be more complex then a MMORPG
It looks good, and mind you I played X2, but I cant stop feeling that this trailer and game is trying to steal some of the feel that EVE-Online has. Offcourse this isn't an MMO but it still looks alot like a EVE trailer. And what ever ppl say CCP were there before Egosoft and their X franchise.
Actually, Mrdresden, Egosoft started the X franchise before EVE online. The X franchise started in 1999 with, "X: Beyond the Frontier", followed by, "X²: The Threat", in 2003, and then, "X³: Reunion", in 2005. By the time EVE Online was release, Egosoft already had two X games out. They are two different games, but both are enjoyable in their own right.
This looks like a really good game, and I just found out about this one like 2 days ago
LOL
Its b/c I was having a lot of problems while playing X3 Reunion when I first got it like one or two years, and just stop playing it. It runs better now with the new updates:)
Now I cant wait for this one
I hope the graphics will be better then X3 Reunion, and that they'll let u carry over ur stuff to TC
thats alright we all make mistakes :P, just credit shouldbe given where its due, Alexei isnt the only music maker for X3 :P The two are brilliant tho.
I sure want them to get to the events that took place before X- Beyond the Frontiers, I want to fight Xenons when it was a war between earth and machines.
Since X2-The Threat they have improved the physics engine so much, they actually have moved comebat seqeunces into Battlestar Galactica style which is good. Plus if you agree
Yeah but I don't think that the most important in a game are the graphics, at least for me! What count the most is the gameplay, and the interest to play, and this game, I love it, because a wonderful gameplay and a tremendous interest to play it up to I finish all at one hundred percent, and even at this moment, it's not finished cause of mods and scripts!!^^
I agree, gameplay and intrest are great in a game but to get people interested, you need good graphics and a realistic physics engine doesn't hurt either.
Agreed. Graphics plays very importalt role in each game, but some developers prefer to make BEAUTIFUL game instead of GOOD game. But in X3 we've got awesome gameplay and even more awesome graphics))
soz 4 the doublepost but: it would also be good if they made race unique turrets, it always bugged me to have a wonderful ship like a boron ray or a paranid odysseus ruined by the big blocky argon turrets
yea, argo turrets should stay the same, boron turrets these organic streamlined green things, split should be massive turrets with like 10 barrels, paranids should be like argon, but different and paranid colour scheme
yea, hopefully the graphics engine will be modified slightly, and MORE BORON SHIPS, well, more of every kind of ship. love the look of that new boron M2, looks like a ray but with added bits at the back :D

Dear All,
I have some questions about psychology:
(1) Why do we love space travel travel?
(2) Why does space travel feel differently from flying?
(3) Why do we enjoy to play PC games realted to space travel?
(4) If you work for NASA, how will you design a new internation space station?
(5) If you are the programmer of Microsoft, how will you design a space travelling game for players in 4-10 years old?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

you CAN fly around planets..but it would take hours or days in normal speed because the planets have a realistic size and you are too slow to recognize it while just flying through a sector..if you cheat and make an extremely fast ship you can see the planet growing,when flying to it's direction. just look at the video "x3 reunion blitz 33000m/s"

Hey I'm thinking of giving this game another try, but I want music to make it seem more intresting. That way I'm not just flying (slowly, I wish they added cruise engines or something like in Freelancer), through space and hearing not even the engine on my ship. No engine noise. That too sucks. I know space is meant to me noisless, but you can hear your lasers and not your engines.

Whats with the people and comparing this to EVE. There are many other space sims out there, and EVE is just one of them. So why EVE so much?
Ethaninja 3 years ago
Because its pretty much the most played game of this class right now.
angelmarine1292 3 years ago
Ah man I played this game. I thought the same as you smithers, action mad fun. Instead its more strategic and slow. Not really my kind of game. Im sure once ya get mad fun ships and stuff the action might get better, but I'm not too eager to sit and wait for that to come. Btw, I dont get any music (and yes its the legal version)

no, this IS X4 in a sense. its a sequel to X3 reunion, not an expansion or a mod.

I wish they paid some attention to the way stuff takes damage. I mean, a fricking health bar? For a capital ship? You can't even target subsystems like engines or weapons in X3 - it uses the same system used in early 90s strategy games like C&C. You can kill a ship by firing at an insignificant part of it for a long time which sucks ass. if they sorted this out it would be a decent game.
mysticalpotato86 3 years ago
you don't know what they will do in X3 TC yet, but it would be nice to have different part of ship status, engines, reactors, and etc...
MasterChiefAgent007 3 years ago
It's not a strat game. It's a spacesim. Made by an indie company at that. Yes, it would be nice to have subsystems, but for what it has, it's fantastic. If you want complex spacesim, you have only a few choices, Derek Smart's BC/UC series, X series, or some of the really old titles (can't think of any off hand).
Sorry if this post seemed a little bashing, but I was responding to your harsh tone and the fact you compared it to a strategy game :(.
Anticept 3 years ago 3
I know what type of game it is, since I own X2 and X3 Reunion. The only part of the game I was comparing to an early 90s strategy game for sophistication was the combat damage system which is identical to most early strategy games. Some modern ones however have actually surpassed it :/.
mysticalpotato86 3 years ago
the only modern space games are 'eve online, everything else is insignificant.
Besides X3 has that ridiculous in-sector/out-of-sector rules which vastly overshadows any subsystem limitation

Eh, I hate mmo's. Ya need a friggen super internet to play em. And when your sharing 1 internet with 6 LAN computers, its slower then frikken dialup.
Ethaninja 3 years ago
He compared the damage system to a strat game, and honestly, it's a fair comparison, because it is identical.
Unfortunatly this is a huge problem for me as well. Games keep coming out with better graphics, but developers never pay attention to what actually matters.
Zyfe 3 years ago
Only to intelligent people, can things be compared in such a way. I get a little guffed when I see people try to compare generally unrelated genres (its a hybrid, still doesn't make it an actual strategy) because the dummies out there start expecting it to play like a strat :P

@mysticalpotato86 "You can't even target subsystems like engines or weapons in X3"
---
How much more idiotic and unrealistic is it to be able to destroy a capital ship by targeting an AA turret. Get real
beugnen 3 years ago
Ummmm ok I didn't actually say that. I said you can't target subsystems - doing so wouldn't necessarily have to result in destroying the ship. Are you telling me you think its better to hide behind a capital ship for 15 minutes shooting it in the most insignificant place waiting for its 'health bar' to go down? Get real.
mysticalpotato86 3 years ago
no, it's better to hide 'out of sector' then there is no notion of 'hiding behind a ship'.
if you had actually played the game you would know that.
troll
beugnen 3 years ago
Ugh, you fail to understand yet again - have YOU played X3? I have actually, and a popular tactic was to sit in a ships blind spot - hiding from its weapons - firing at it for a good 20 mins. This is unsatisfying on so many levels and really sucks. It was my main problem with X3 Reunion, and will probably be the same in TC.
mysticalpotato86 3 years ago
So, maybe just take a capital ship at your own to destroy another capital ship? I did it with an m3+, sure it take some time with that. But at least it is a fight with a small fighter against a huge capital ship. What do you expect?

Sitavikat21 3 years ago
Well 2 things. its not a mmorpg, and the X series existed A LONG ASS TIME before EVE. So EVE is a copy paste of X3. :) and since i played both X3 is a lot more complex then Eve. Not only the size of the universe wise but also economic complexity and pretty much everything else from fighting to transporting civilians.
Collector2006 3 years ago
Actually EVE has been around for over 10yrs. Just like the X series in different game's.
The forerunner for all these type of games is Elite and Elite 2.
EVE and X are totally different games, to compare them shows the Tard lvl of most of you

Are you stupid EVE is an online Universe 100x bigger them any of the X games.
The Economy in X is controlled buy one person you the player. In EVE the Entire economy is controlled by the players. X gets boring after a week due to the fact your paying yourself, this take no skill at all.
to say X3 is a lot more complex then Eve is just showing what a idiot your are. No generic single player game can never be more complex then a MMORPG

It looks good, and mind you I played X2, but I cant stop feeling that this trailer and game is trying to steal some of the feel that EVE-Online has. Offcourse this isn't an MMO but it still looks alot like a EVE trailer. And what ever ppl say CCP were there before Egosoft and their X franchise.

LtDeath100 3 years ago
Actually, Mrdresden, Egosoft started the X franchise before EVE online. The X franchise started in 1999 with, "X: Beyond the Frontier", followed by, "X²: The Threat", in 2003, and then, "X³: Reunion", in 2005. By the time EVE Online was release, Egosoft already had two X games out. They are two different games, but both are enjoyable in their own right.

Its b/c I was having a lot of problems while playing X3 Reunion when I first got it like one or two years, and just stop playing it. It runs better now with the new updates:)
Now I cant wait for this one
I hope the graphics will be better then X3 Reunion, and that they'll let u carry over ur stuff to TC
It would suck if u need to start over at zero :(

Yeah but I don't think that the most important in a game are the graphics, at least for me! What count the most is the gameplay, and the interest to play, and this game, I love it, because a wonderful gameplay and a tremendous interest to play it up to I finish all at one hundred percent, and even at this moment, it's not finished cause of mods and scripts!!^^
UtatRhonkar 3 years ago
I agree, gameplay and intrest are great in a game but to get people interested, you need good graphics and a realistic physics engine doesn't hurt either.

soz 4 the doublepost but: it would also be good if they made race unique turrets, it always bugged me to have a wonderful ship like a boron ray or a paranid odysseus ruined by the big blocky argon turrets
coldstar07 3 years ago
Yeah that's right, that sounds odd that all races have the same turret!
UtatRhonkar 3 years ago
yea, argo turrets should stay the same, boron turrets these organic streamlined green things, split should be massive turrets with like 10 barrels, paranids should be like argon, but different and paranid colour scheme

i hope that if it isn an add-on for X3 it has the same file formats so if you want you can import ships from this to X3 or the other way round
