Like Tradewars, Freelancer, Escape Velocity?

X³: Terran Conflict confirmed for EPIC FUCKING TIER! I've been playing X games forever, finally got around to getting XTC. Fuck the storyline, making your way in this game is just too damn epic. Casual faggots need not apply. This game is indeed hardcore.

Anyone else played this beast?

You mean Escape Velocity, the cool trading/exploring game made by Ambrosia?

Those games were pretty fun and cool, was hoping they'd make one for the iPhone to be honest.

[Demosthenes]

Yes like that, except not anywhere near as limited.

I've played through X3-Reunion with the xtended mod a lot, definitely an awesome game. You can do pretty much anything you can think of you'd want to do in space.

Only thing is I wish the interface made it a bit easier to do things like station management and building complexes.

Still, after playing X3, all other space games are dead to me. there's NOTHING that comes close.

Just be warned, the learning curve is a giant cliff, but fine once you scale that initial wall.

It's probably the second most complex AND complicated game I've played ever, after falcon 4.0.

I've heard X3:TC is a tiny bit easier on new players, so I'd go for that first probably. I still prefer X3:R+Xtended myself though.

I just checked and this game is like a year old. Was there a point to the thread other than, I like this kind of game? Not that there's a problem with that, just wondering.

Yeah, Reunion had a lot of flaws when it came to usability. Terran Conflict is streamlined in comparison.

No one here as ever talked about X³ or any X game.

[BarthelloSylph]

fair enough. i wasnt trying to be a dick, but was just wondering if a new game was coming out or something.
