According to the news, it seems to be "just" X³ with a bunch of MD-made missions.

Bah. Nuclear waste again. Also you people are withdrawing me from my off-topic hole. Stop it.
Anyway, I never got into X3 much, seemed odd. I would like to see some adjustments other then just "x3 with shiny missions", a good modder can do that.

woohoo!!!!!
This makes me sooo happy!!
I do have a quick question. On the home page it states, "X³: Terran Conflict is a brand new, stand-alone game set in the universe of X³."
Does this mean we won't carry on with our current empire? I'm okay with that too! I'm just so darn Excited!!! w00 h00!
Yay Egosoft!!!

End of all the X4 threads then.
But one question remains: how did that one game shop know the name terran conflict? it's been months now since somebody spotted that name on their web page and wrote about it in a thread.

From my opinion - it's look like Xtended with with missions written by MD.
May be some additional changes in Script Engine.

So... As this is the 'culmination of the X trilogy, with a grand finale...', does that mean that Egosoft will be trying their hand at something else next, or possibly the dreaded online game... (NOTE: Rhetorical questions, I don't rightly expect an answer). ADDITIONAL NOTE: Woohoo!

No. X4 will obviously be part of the quadrilogy. I'm looking forward to the marketing spiel:
X3: Terran Confilct is the fifth game in the X trilogy.
Anyway, no-one has asked the big question yet; what colour will the ticky disk be?

I thought the same thing at first, but maybe it's just the grand finale for the storyline in this game, not the whole series. Hopefully!

This is tremendously exciting. Expansionist evil humans plotting to take over the rest of the universe, and I get to choose to be against them or with them. That'd own. Seriously. Wow. I'd walk all over those hippie Borons!
I hope it'll be bugtested as hell. That's my only gripe with the X-games; bugs. Please Egosoft, make it as bugfree as possible.
Oh, and *waves to Golden_Gonads* Y HALO THAR MATEY!

Sounds to me like Terran conflict is going to be to X3 what Cataclysm was to Homeworld and Mysteries of the Sith was to Jedi knight. i.e. A stand alone game based on the same engine that's more then a simple expansion pack, but not quite a full blown sequel.
This is a damn good thing, since both the above games where superior in many ways to the originals. Hindsight is a wonderful thing
.
So I'm looking foreward to it, especially since it sounds like Egosoft have been busy developing the tools to add a LOT of new content easily. That in turn means us long time xers may finally get a lot of completely new things to do.

A standalone game? with no mention of empire building or trading?
Sounding like a FPS to me... if it is, it doesnt deserve the X tag and should get a new name.
But I'll wait and see, and welcome it with open arms and cheque book.
But dont kill off the empire building and trading that X has become to represent!

i really dont know where you got the idea that its a FPS.
its a standalone game based on the X3 engine, meaning its like an Expansion to X3, but doesn't require X3 to run and is a game in its own right. So the game play will be simlar

*jaw hits the floor* i hope it's save game compatible with X3, and wait a second it's named the Terran Conflict who was the X-Universes ambasidor ? Mi-ton ?
