TNBT will be a scifi game.

Following the announcement would/will Egosoft be able to let us know the required/minimum (so we know to triple it :P ) specifications, multi-core/process with GPU, multi or otherwise.

In other words, what hardware would be best thrown at it?

That depends on how good the game is when or if it arrives. :)

Specs are one of those tricky things to nail down; it can literally come down to the last couple weeks of production to find out what exactly the game can run on effectively, and what it needs to really hit its stride. So although we could speculate at this point, it wouldn't be much use, as it's all fairly fluid.


But... I will have to sadly inform you that it will not, in fact, run on the dusty Amiga in your attic.

My Amiga is in the room next door, it's still in working order, although it is now retired. :)

Thanks for the heads-up on the specs.

If the next project isn't going to take place in the X-universe, does that mean we're going to need a new forum?
Admitting you have a problem is the first step in figuring out how to make it worse.

I do get the impression that certain Egosoft reps are enjoying all this speculation and suspense!

I don't know about an X in the first 5 letters, but, if my theory proves correct, this game picks up where Terran Conflict left off, that's my theory and I'm sticking to it. :lol:

I typed in TNBT on Play.com and got http://www.play.com/Search.html?searcht ... tring=TNBT

I think there were plenty of hints in the X Encyclopedia.Plus as mentioned above,the current X-story line may end with TC,but that does not stop another story line being developed.

As for online requirement to play,that would lose me and many others.
Multi-player on the other hand,as an option,may woo many newer players and indeed many current long term players.

But remember that TNBT has been in developement for a few years,so let's not rule anything out.
