K'hak clusters are a different story though.X3:R is the continuation of Julian's story. You can even do this with the beta weapons. Then I turn away and spin while pulling up and keep doing this until the nova's out of energy.

What I do is line up for a firing run and wait until I see the first volley. As for the rear weapon, yeah, you need to aproach it differently. I never had this problem to be honest with you. Also novas have rear turrets and will knock the shit out of a new player in a Buster. The AI never bails if it still has shields.

Mass drivers are terrible capturing weapons.

All you need is the mass driver and they bail like crazy. I took on 2 novas with my little buster and was able to do fine.

The best way of making money in the beginning is capturing ships (which is random when fighting them) and trading soja in Empire's Edge, which is five or so south of Argon Prime, in Paranid space.Īfter getting a decent ship (or before if you want) save up for a Mercury trader (I forget the price) and a copy of trade software Mk 3 (about 500 000) to start your first sector trader (ST), which you can then set to trade automatically in Empire's Edge for stupid cash. Anyone know where it is?Īn argon nova is a really solid choice for first good ship. I was told you could go to Teladi space to get a best-buy/sell locator device but I haven't had any luck finding it. Also, I have no idea what kind of ship I actually want, since there are a fuckton of them available from all the races. I captured a pirate harrier and sold it to get some starting money, but I still need more to be able to afford a new ship. Since I just started the game, I'm a bit unsure what I want to do. You can actually learn some nice tips by seeking out the information stations in the various equipment docks. The hard part is just getting started, since you have so many different ways to make money in the game, and the game has loads of items that make everything easier for you, like new software, but you have to find them yourself. There is a storyline you can follow, but it's really not that interesting, and it's much more fun just flying around and exploring. Just flying from system to system can be a rewarding experience, and it's very relaxing. It's absolutely beautiful, and the music is just incredible. Despite the fact that I've played the game before, I had never been to Kingdom's End, the Boron home planet, so when I went there I was bombarded with a feast for the senses. It's so wonderful to just fly around in, though.

I've heard people talk about Baldur's Gate or Oblivion being overwhelming due to the non-linearity, so I can only assume that this game would cause a massive coronary to those people. It's hard to get into, but it actually feels like an old-school sim game like Mechwarrior 2, only with a wide open world, and an incredible amount of options available.

#X3 REUNION NO ASTEROIDS IN LIST MODS#

There's mods and tweaks you can do as well if you find yourself needing a bit more of a boost, though.Īs I said in some other thread, I installed it the other day on my new computer, and I'm loving it. There's lots of keyboard commands that won't fit (or can't be mapped) to the joystick anyway, so you can make the game as simmy as you want it.Įdit: as far as performance goes, it really only seems to take a bit hit when there's a lot of action going on at once, particularly when there's a lot of weapons fire being tossed around (ie: whenever capital ships start shooting). As for myself, I use a joystick, but the game works fine without. The game does take a bit of getting used to, but once you do it's a whole lot easier to manage.

#X3 REUNION NO ASTEROIDS IN LIST UPDATE#

To me it really felt like X3 is just a purely graphical update of the second game.īut anyway, both games are pretty good and there's tons of mods and custom ships people have made for the games, so there's plenty to do. Plus X2's story mode isn't (as much of) a disjointed, buggy mess. More ship variety, cockpit models, the ability to dock inside stations, and even your own personal logo plastered on your ships. Sure it's older, but it actually has more stuff in it. I decided to play X2 first for the story, but I found myself bouncing back and forth to compare the two, and in a lot of ways X2 seems like it edges out the third.

I picked up the X2/X3 pack of Steam a while ago, and I have to say both games are great, if not essentially identical.
