Hi CBJ. Which discussion? Forgive us, but loyal US X fans just crave news that might herald the arrival of our shiny new X game!!! If your concern is discussion of US arrival and release, where should we go with the discussion? Thanks.... and no, I'm not questioning your authority. You've been a big help to me here since X2. I think we are all just excited.

The discussion to take elsewhere was the one in the post immediately prior to mine. Feel free to discuss your search for the game here, or in this thread which seems to be specifically about that.

I need to say sorry for not uploading a SotD the last days, but the performance of the forums and the site was horrible, so I couldn't upload anything. But now screenshots will be uploaded daily again. So I did a few minutes ago and here is you new Screeshot of the Day

Package from Egosoft was waiting for me when I came home today. It felt like a package from family with all the real stamps, presumably licked.

No. Apart from the fact that you've not even mentioned what country you were in, it's unlikely that anyone here would know. Developers write games, publishers deal with distributors, and distributors deal with company purchasing departments, who in turn deal with individual stores. Getting a definitive list would be pretty much impossible.

Nice this helps pass the time while my game copy is enroute.It doesn't look too tough though.Centaurs usually fall pretty easily in Reunion.

Anyway,The fight video was just released.

On that note, I'd like note that the pirate osprey paintjob is simply stellar, above and beyond, nice job guys.

TGD: Pirate Centaurs still arn't that tough, but they have significantly more shielding than in X3R and their turret arcs are better and they sometimes have mass drivers. (!)

The Great Destroyer · Post by **The Great Destroyer** » Fri, 24. Oct 08, 07:50

^^ Damn,Who'd of thought.I guess the Centaur is now a force to be reckon with now it is in Pirate hands.

I look forward to the challenge of seeing such a menace & also the Brigantine.

what's from about the steam serial? a week past and we still can't register our game

Post by **CBJ** » Fri, 24. Oct 08, 23:42

We're still working on it. Our end is now OK and we're just waiting on Steam to get their end into the same state.

Here is a Bernd interview that was released just today.

Seeing a couple questions have been answered already in this one, i hope i could get some Dev/Official Answer here.

I am wondering if the inability to use jumpdrive within the Terran Sectors and to buy Terran Stations is a bug of an intended feature?

Or rather, will that be changed in a future patch?

I mean, i can understand, from a story perspective, that the Terrans are cautious, but i think that once i completed the Terran Story Arc and am being allowed to fly to Earth itself, i think i should be allowed to build my own Terran empire, using Jumpdrives within the Terran Space and all that. Afterall i have proven myself to be trustworthy.

So my question is simply... will this be changed in the future? (Its the last game of the series and i really would love to be able to play it as endless game - which also means to me terrans become more open to the others)

Post by **CBJ** » Wed, 29. Oct 08, 11:24

It's an intended feature. The Terran Trans-Orbital Accelerators are not jumpgates and cannot be used as the target for the jumpdrive. Remember that the Terrans are extremely cautious, and if you could target the gates to jump straight in then so could the Xenon, the race the Terrans have the most reason to fear.
