hobbesmaster posted:Seriously get the paranid corvette with 5 forward guns. Throw in 5 medium chainguns or whatever. Xenon Ps last like 3 bursts. I have one, but it doesn't have a docking bay which makes me very sad. It is the best M ship by far though which means the Paranid get the best M ships as well as S ships....

Communist Bear posted:So basically we've got one game is thematically good but structurally bad, even patched up, and we've got another game that is structurally a bit better but thematically bad, not patched up. Nah, X4 is salvageable. Rebirth was _terrible_ on launch, and got patched up to passable if disappointing. This is actually pretty good, with scads of jank which is actually reassuring. FileNotFound posted:I'd love to see a link because I legitimately cannot wrap my head around how in the world of mutitheading and muliticore PCs we can have issues with the game slowing down due to CPU utilization that could be easily offloaded to one of my 8 cores. I can literally have a core dedicated to each of my loving turrets... Marshalling is still difficult to do because you can't predict load, and spreading load is therefore difficult to manage predictively? This is egosoft. FileNotFound posted:For fucks sake - even starcitizen has working turrets - even if nothing else works in that scam of a game they somehow managed to make turrets hit poo poo. What wizardry... I believe you can snap up a starter pack for a hundred bucks if that's your particular hurdle. They might actually complete a single solar system by 2019.

I reinstalled X3 AP again and am really enjoying it. X4 is a solid foundation pun intended but it needs a few months of patching to get where it needs to be. It has many small issues that can be fixed but no huge glaring weaknesses that undermine the entire design.

Great, I got a lockbox mission and the lockbox physically doesnt exist. I can target it on the radar and select it but it just doesnt exist when go there. Also the ship balance is completely out of whack, how is a medium sized corvette faster than any teladi or argon fighter craft?

X4 needs some fixes for some of its automation features and imo, an endgame threat like Litcube.

I am having lots of fun with the game in spite all the jank. Something about setting up a whole bunch of traders and watching them putter around and slowly make money so that you can buy more traders is great and so far has scratched the UT itch from X3. I'm admittedly pretty weird.

The big thing I always have trouble with, even going from to X3 from Rebirth is that building stations feels way more confusing to me/marines are insano-weird complicated and I can never figure out how to even get a start to even steal corvettes.

Heeyyyyy the paranid are building a new station! I wasn't sure if they could. E: Wow and the antigone republic have apparently sent a raiding force into their sectors too, seems like the factions do fight each other and expand. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 21:11 on Dec 4, 2018 |

FileNotFound posted:Tell me about Litcube. Is it just a harder X3? There are a good amount of integrated mods into it (either the actual mod or litcube's own version of it) so I mostly like it for the reduced amount of setup (saturn complex hubs, for example, are in by default), but it also adds some really cool features (that you can turn off if you want) in a competing AI corporation and a strong endgame threat that you need a large industry base to take on.

Weapon and ship balance is also radically different in litcube's universe. Litcube likes very slow firing guns so thats what you get.

Is it just a harder X3? It's a total conversion, which means that he wraps up a bunch of changes and QoL improvements, along with his particular concept of how the game should be; http://litcube.xtimelines.net/wiki/index.php/Features in short, the big ones are trading, explorers and items that help scale out empires, like the Saturn Complex Hub Comparisons are here. http://litcube.xtimelines.net/wiki/index.php/FAQ quote:Compare to the vanilla game. That's a massive overview, there's a bunch more detail on the wiki about the differences. Personally I think it lights a fire under the players rear end a bit more, and makes the universe 'pop' a bit more in terms that you can make money off people bailing from their ships a little more readily. I'm a fan, obviously. Someone else can probably speak to the shortcomings.

Why isn't this black market buyer accepting my space weed?  I have a container ship with 1900 space weed parked in this dock, and I go to her and tell her to buy it, hit Confirm, it says (xxx,xxx due from trading), then that goes away and no transaction happens.

The black market trader is for things in your personal inventory, like baubles and poo poo, not for a ship full of things. For that the station needs to be buying them.

I didn't know there was a bulk buy option at all... the one I found didn't have it, do you need to complete the mission for that? If so it seems like it would massively facilitate illegal trade.

If so it seems like it would massively facilitate illegal trade. Yes thats the point of completing the mission; you then get a "what do you have in bulk option" and have a normal wares screen for spaceweed/spacefuel/majaglit (or whatever its called). Only around 100 units each though.

Slickdrac posted:I found a mining fleet about 2000km away from anything, in an area with no belts or gas clouds Apparently this is due to the “encounter” script that secretly cheats to make the universe appear more populated by warping ships to be near you (it’s not spawning new ones, just grabbing them from elsewhere). You usually don’t notice because there’s usually stuff around that would make sense for them to be there but in very odd cases like this one it’s noticeable.
