Supreme Cmdr Posted September 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully they've addressed the issues (combat and AI) in X2. If not, I guess I'll be shelving this one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darien Wolfe Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 As a space sim lunatic I have to admit, X3 is one game that I am looking forwards to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eclipse Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I'm finding the egosoft forums slightly strange... people canceling preorders because the cockpit models were cut... very odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't look into the preorder business, but you are correct that there seems to be a x-ing out of the cockpits. As per the forum site admin: quote:To be honest, I'm surprised to see the cockpit debate still going on, as it was confirmed in several interviews at the summer Games Convention in Leipzig that there would not be any cockpits in X3.

Reno Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 No cockpits is really not much of a problem for me. They would be nice, and given the option I would use them, but as the BC/UC series proves they are not required. I'm much more concerned with wether or not the pirate fighters have those stupid 'Vader Helmet' cockpits still. That was my ONLY gripe with X2, because it turned the Bayamon, my favorite fighter in X-T, into an ugly piece of junk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't believe everything you read. Some people are just saying that to get attention. It is (ludicrous to say the least) that any sane gamer who is a fan of the X series, would cancel pre-orders (or not buy the game) because of that. See post #49 over here for my take on it.

Admiral LB Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 sorry to be the bringer of bad news but the X3 release date is now the 25th apparently because the cockpits needed to be cut due to too high resolution. the loss of cockpits is not a problem at all. In fact it is a bonus. In X2 my favorite fighter was made by a modder and it had a very tight cockpit with a very small viewing arc into space. So in conclusion, this helps a little for those of you who just skipped to the bottom of this post to get the release date: Start at the top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you find this particular piece of rubbish? They always knew - and stated - that there would be no cockpits in the game. So since when was it the cockpits that caused a one week delay because they had to be removed? Thats rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darien Wolfe Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 As long as the game plays well and is enjoyable, I can live with or without cockpits. I could beat on my contacts at Koch and get the truth though, but I'd need thumbscrews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral LB Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 first off, I just read the egosoft forums, and write down what some of the rumors over there were. and in reponse to the post above, I think I have a few screws in my closet somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 You should know better than to rely on rumors. Especially the rubbish posted on the Egosoft boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral LB Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Right, I have never posted there so I'll keep that in mind for the future. Thanks for the tip SC. Anyway, Release date is now tuesday the 25th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 The X3 forums are just like the game's inhabitants. Lawless. Ludicrous. Loudmouths. Seriously, can you imagine me waking up one morning and checking our forum to find half the crap topics seen over there, over here. I'd have a nervous breakdown and probably ban everyone. Don't take my word for it. Try this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matchoo Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: Don't take my word for it. Try this. No wonder davewave doesn't like your games. At 12:11 he creates the topic complaining about your games. At 12:18 someone asks him who you are and what it has to do with X3, and at 12:20 he requests that someone close the topic because as he puts it: quote:Originally posted by davewave on X Universe forum: Hmm, im sick of this topic, someone close it off. I guess if my attention span was 9 minutes or less I probably wouldn't be able to play your games either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiral LB Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 good call matchoo. But SC there are always a few good people, like I intend to be,(I need to sign up in order to get the bonus stuff) and there is Al, who made the capturing guide. Oh, and about the nervous breakdown possiblities, I have one everytime I have to go there. My nervous system is so shot after that forum I barely know who I am. Oh, could someone help me out here? Could some one tell me who I am? But seriously SC, the more posts they make trying to flame you, the more popular we Battlecruiser people become! Oh and thanks for banning danwave or what ever his name is. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
