Well, to be fair, the one ship thingy isn't that bad, it might be better for newer players, letting them focus on upgrading and maintaining one ship that's compatible with everything.
This game is going to need a seriously steep learning curve just to get rolling. Even if you decide to automate, you still have to micro-manage a LOT of stuff. Looks like a million things to keep track of just to stay afloat. This looks to be friggn' insanely complex! Going to take like a month just to learn how to play it.
Looks awesome, but I'm not ready to spend weeks just learning all the intricacies of this game. I'll wait and see what the reviews say after it's released.
Having one main ship can be a good thing for a lot of players (people who don't like the fighting aspect of the game).. I think the best thing they can do is to keep the "main ship" or "control ship" idea and add the ability to teleport to any ship to control it manually.. this way we'll have the best of both worlds...
Ability to destroy ship components, more detailed fleet control, no more pain in the ass linking of 9001 stations that clog up half the sector just to make a self sustaining weapons factory etc.
Sounds like they have done just about everything I wanted them to do. I'm not sure about the just 1 player ship business but hopefully it will have an insane ammount of customization options.
Anyway, I can see myself putting another 1k + hours into this game just like with X3 and it's expansions.
I'm quite sure that by "1 player ship" they mean the player will need tho hire pilots to control other ships, on previous games the other ships looked like CPU mindless controlled... I think that we will still be able to command those ships or even controll them manually.
@forrest1777 You will still have fleet command and you will be able to directly control drones and some missiles but you won't be able to switch ships.
There will be one player ship that you can customize, hire crew for and even walk around in, im not sure what level of customization they are talking about tho but i hope there will be a huge ammount of options to compensate for having to use the same ship all the time.
Hopefully the "single ship" will be modular to give a feel of growth. Like if I start with a corvette or frigate type ship and grow into a pseudo-carrier/destroyer than I think I would be set.
Yeah, Big fan of the X series, not liking this single ship business though.. part of what i like was choosing and customising ships.. seems like a shame...
Silly comment to make. I love X3's gameplay - which doesn't feature in an mmo by the way, so your twattish comment was unnecessary - and am against it being dumbed down. Mind you, you certainly appear to be a target audience for 'dumb'.
I don't like the way this is going. Only one ship is bad. Making it 'more logical' sounds like a massive step backwards. I.E "lol congratz dude u bought a new ship. u now has 22 traders. u maek money at 2200 credits per minu-- soz dude ment mizura." ... "Uh, where are my ships?" ... "LOL relax dude dere out dere. sumwhere. making moneys. k?" ... "Oh, okay. But I can't contr---" "shut up dude look hears ur sexy copilot go have a romance or sumthin".
ok, so single ship concept is a change, but, it allows more story telling. Ship INTERIOR - this is something I wanted since X-BTF. Crew, copilot? Sounds like Iwar 2 which owned.
Couple this with the interplanetary highways etc and they're on to one hell of a winner.
X tension series have not disappointed me so far. I am going to get this one too ...
But kind of worried about the single ship concept which was never seen attempted before in series ... but i like how they are expanding on the interior of the ship. And more of source aspects of spaceships ... like crew and sexy co-pilots :P
You can't PILOT the capital ships, but can still OWN and CONTROL them.. Which is what you did most of the time in X3 anyway with those big ships (cant fly them and fight in them as fighters anyway).
@Dreez76 so, walking around your own Ship interacting the crew isnt something that kind of gets you interested an that you can dock capitals and walk onto the hanger bay of it while everything out in space is still happening visually if you look out a window. you can also control Drones like you was actually in it too. if you wanna play with fighters. and whats fun about piloting capital ships? you can barley manuever around in them lol. but i imagin the AI will be far more advanced tho.
@Nick871203 Yeah it sucks - I mean drones? Who the fuck cares? And also - have you ever played X3 TC with mods? There's a lot you can with capital ships and etc..... Also what really gets me hooked with TC is just the possibility and freedom of doing things like that , no limitations. I can stick with one ship if I wanted and I can choose to buy and pilot different kind of ships or open up my own enterprise and work for it in a transporter then hop into my fighter- whatever
@kalev76 Becuase the Ship has an Interior which works in real time... when you get off your chair look out the window an everything still going on as you'll see from the cockpit. if all ships had an interior imagin the lag caused by that.
unless they had a Selection of Unique classes of ships you can have, perhapes you'll get that in future expansions
@kalev76 spose they could do that, i dont know. but i reckon you should try the game first, Egosoft allways done good with X games. there not gonna get careless with there New ideas. i sure they will find some way to pull this new Idea off, i think its not bad. so why dont you just wait. try it out. see how it goes. an if you still dont like it. well theres not much that can be done for you is there. it cant be all bad. you can still control other ships of any type you wish
@kalev76 i think it will be, but considering the Depth of the game, you might think it dont need modding :P the game is insaley detailed so far. i imagin egosoft is taking all the best out of the X games, an adding all the ideas to make the game much more easier to Manage an control. while more chalanging in terms of combat etc. thats what i hoping for :P
I was trying to figure out how they'd do a highway system if they're going to do it right and give planets an orbit. Then I realized they could simply use the local highway as a inner or outer ring along the planets path, while using the super highway... like the spokes on a wheel, to connect the locals.
so now it has a highway sysem like freelancer? I never played the previous games enough, 20 hours in TC is not enough to get anywhere at all, but I absolutely loved the concept. If there is only one ship does that mean that it is like the first game, where you had the module and could seriously deck it out? sounds like you can get more ships though, just have to pilot them remotley (ie, if your capital ship dies you don't have too :D) using some sought of proxy mind controlled guy O_o
Bigger systems, interstellar travel, this is something i always wanted for the former x games. The classic constelation of compressed space, station and nearby gates ruined the atmosphere of the game for me. Otherwise the new elements in this presantation didn't catch much of my attention, just one ship??? common:((((
Moving around your ship sounds like something that could either be amazing or a complete disaster. Do you run into crewman going about their business? What about space stations? Can you walk around inside them?
@scrotumface333 I'm sure they won't miss your purchase just from not being able to pilot other ships. Maybe you should give the one ship they give us a try first before screaming. It's all new plus they made it clear that this is what they would consider the framework for multiplayer... which is huge for the future.
@ericdrasmussen So you think they can somehow justify being only able to pilot one ship? It's not X. It makes it feel so much more linear and it's lazy desing.
Also i don't want multiplayer in X. There are plenty of other space sims for multiplayer. Expanding your audience only ever leads to disappointment for everyone.
You're one person and unless the majority believe as you do expanding an audience could be a good thing. I think a big simulator universe populated by real people who have factories, alliances, and empires that also interact with you would be amazing.
Take simulator racing for example. Far more successful on mutiplayer.
@LordTyrannus Unless they were to focus on the multiplayer it would fall short and if they did focus purely on multiplayer the game would end up competing with EVE which is the last thing the developers want. Either way we lose. Also this is not racing and that's a stupid comparison to use.
About the one ship, from what i have seen the majority do agree with me. It's a stupid idea that completely shits on everything the other X games have achieved. It's a step backwards that isn't needed.
@LordTyrannus Oh and the space sims are things like EVE, freelancer, black prophecy, i think there is a battlestar galactica online game, Evocrhron and thats all i can think of at the moment.
Also from one space enthusiast to another, try out space engine.
@LordTyrannus As far as single player being "almost completely weeded out", I sure hope not. I've never been a big fan of multiplayer games, though some have some great co-op play (I loved HALO co-op, in large part because it was the entire single-player campaign but with a friend). Sadly for me, it seems most gamers are more interested in "pwning noobs" than teaming up for a good co-op experience. There are just far too many rude people in multiplayer games for my taste.
@LordTyrannus That thought sickens me and people like you make me fear for the future of the gaming industry. It's the same attitude that 14 year old cod kiddies hold dear to themselves. "LOL no multiplayer, waht a fucking gay gaem". I want you to seriously look back at your fondest memories of video games and tell me what they are. For me it certainly doesn't involve multiplayer. Multiplayer is a tacked on gimmick that you can try out every now and then.
I didn't say no multiplayer games are gay. It's you seeing what you want to see. I did say they will dissapear for a more favorable and profitable game. Answer me this: What is the problem with having a multiplayer universe where you do the exact same stuff in a singleplayer, but build, roam, and fight with real people? Tacked on gimmick? Imagine the possibilities.
@LordTyrannus Because i want to do it alone? If i wanted to be social i wouldn't be playing video games in the first place. Sadly that view isn't held by very many people these days. They can't handle being away from other people for more then 2 minutes.
Oh well, this is getting us no where. We both share completely different views and it's not likely they are going to change.
Then do it alone. Nobody is forcing you to interact with people. You can solo missions, solo empire, solo everything. Think of real people online as AI that you can interact with or ignore...
I don't think there will be just single ship for player...Because it would ruin the game and it would no longer be X game...capturing was the biggest part of the game!
@2lazy2upload aaaahh! Why did you have to mention it? Now I just set the bar way too high :(
I can't speak German, but the subtitles didn't specifically say "walk". Maybe it's one of those one-screen-one-part-of-the-ship things? I surely hope not.
@FenkRubba yep u r right, i'm native german speaker and the translation is correct about moving (bewegen), but still there is additional information about having a crew, a co-pilot. Maybe they gonna design it somethig like the star trek simulation game (the good one:P), where u had crew members with distinguished personalitys and u could give them interactive orders. This coul work fine and make the game shipmanagment look more alive. Maybe the one ship idea isn't that bad at all...
The more I hear, the more I'm liking this game. As to one ship only, most players stuck to a single ship for a major part of the previous games anyway.
Glad to hear that the indvidual "sectors" have become larger.
Remote controlled drones and torpedoes are also a nice touch.
@pvtconners True, but you had the option to choose that single ship from many different aspects. Example: I was hesitating over the Perseus and the Nova for a while because they both suit my game style - I chose the Nova I liked its appearance more and I've been flying that rusty old thing for years now(I know looks isn't all but still). On the other other hand, my friend chose the Mamba because he likes hit'n'run action more.
@menos444 Yes, were you listening when he said the player ship will change throughout the plot, and that it has interiors that you can actually walk through, I believe we'll basically start in what we perceive as a capital ship, perhaps even a TL. and while your main ship is just that, a headquarters, you will interact via drones, and to be honest at the stage of the game when your in your first carrier (even the small 5 ship ones) your dealing with autonomous "drones" who are your wingmen.
@menos444 who cares, x-btf also had only one ship playable, but played the game for more than 180 hours. As long as the ship has a lot of possibilities to upgrade and modify it should be okay and be no reason to cry ;)
Guys, the one ship

The more I hear, the more I'm liking this game. As to one ship only, most players stuck to a single ship for a major part of the previous games anyway.
Glad to hear that the indvidual "sectors" have become larger.
Remote controlled drones and torpedoes are also a nice touch.
Really looking forward to this.

@pvtconners True, but you had the option to choose that single ship from many different aspects. Example: I was hesitating over the Perseus and the Nova for a while because they both suit my game style - I chose the Nova I liked its appearance more and I've been flying that rusty old thing for years now(I know looks isn't all but still). On the other other hand, my friend chose the Mamba because he likes hit'n'run action more.

One ship only? :(

@menos444 Yes, were you listening when he said the player ship will change throughout the plot, and that it has interiors that you can actually walk through, I believe we'll basically start in what we perceive as a capital ship, perhaps even a TL. and while your main ship is just that, a headquarters, you will interact via drones, and to be honest at the stage of the game when your in your first carrier (even the small 5 ship ones) your dealing with autonomous "drones" who are your wingmen.

@menos444 who cares, x-btf also had only one ship playable, but played the game for more than 180 hours. As long as the ship has a lot of possibilities to upgrade and modify it should be okay and be no reason to cry ;)

@menos444 I know this is 1 month old.. But even though you can only pilot one ship, you will still be able to buy ships and give them orders.
