Yeah I think X4 is just Argon, Teladi and Paranid at launch. No Boron or Split AFAIK.

I'm not bothered about walking around on stations for trading/quests etc, but I am absolutely all about getting out of the cockpit and walking around my ships, and out onto landing pads to change ships and stuff.

I think this is one of those ones where I’ll wait a day or so just for those initial impressions, just to make sure it’s not a complete trainwreck, but barring any disasters I’ll definitely pick it up.

This is definitely one of those games I say I'll wait a day or two to get other peoples first impression and see if it's horribly broke, but in reality I'm just gonna buy it on launch day.

I guess with Steam refunds the way they are these days there's not actually any risk...

*edit* gently caress ok I just bought it

X has always been super niche, but it'll do fine in this current space-sim revival period we're in.

Can you do what you could in X3 and place your PHQ down in an empty sector and put lasertowers near the gate and kinda claim the sector for yourself?

Wait, what the gently caress, there isn't?

But, but... my Mamba! My Chimera! My Python!

I loved the Split M7s as player ships, I seem to remember the Tiger with full incendiary bomb launchers being an absolute monster, and the Panther(?) being a rad little mini carrier.

Just don’t do what I did and put one in Neptune. Turns out it’s not particularly sunny there, shockingly.

Are Large auto miners worth saving for, or should I just be getting swarms of mediums?

My experience on my 3080 is it crashes within about 5 mins nearly every time, but then after I relaunch the game it’s fine for however long I play for after that.

Did I mess up by putting a refined metal fab in grand exchange instead of teladianium?

I've got Kha'ak constantly harassing my miners in Eighteen Billion right now. Like every few minutes a big group of like 5 Queens Guard with fighter support just appears and start causing trouble, and since the 'patrol sector' order seems to do nothing I have to just be constantly manually dealing with them. Any was to stop them? Is there a station nearby that they're coming from that I can destroy?
