Yeah, like those people working nightshift in the US who happened to need sleep as well...

A HEARTY CONGRATS TO EGOSOFT and all their hard work! If it plays anything like it looks by the screenshots, it's going to be a very toasty winter, what with all the laser bolts flying around my house!

What can I say, this is likely to be the longest 11days ever. Though I have just bought myself morrowind and am told that it will take my mind off things for a bit :)

Just saw the news on the site, preordered from the Egosoft Online Shop, waiting till October28th+ (it's gonna take a while before my copy reaches Greece :gruebel:), while cleaning my PC up in order to receive X3 :D

A S.E.T.A. would come in handy right now :roll:

X3 The game for fans

Post by davewave » Mon, 17. Oct 05, 13:33

We wish the team at egosoft, beta testers, forum mods and others involved a heart congrats. I probably shoulda posted this in response to the news item but I think it would have gone unseen by all the 125 replies.

Basically, it would appear the developers and beta testers aren't so lucky to have played X3 first. Why? well, they know now all the secrets, they've play tested it to death. This is a sacrifice, they have sacrificed learning and playing the game as new in order to develop the game for us fans.

I think this is a point that often goes amiss and should have its own thread.

So, thanx guys, you "died" so that we may "live" and your sacrifice is embedded in every cool feature, graphic and effect that we will come across in the game.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES


Finally the day has arrived :D Like a previous poster I'm pleased to see that Koch Media have learned from the X2 experience and not shafted the European audience this time. Kudos to Deep Silver, MAJOR respect to Egosoft and OH MY GOD I can't wait to play this game :)


PS, do we have a release date for X4 yet? :twisted:

Well, there is a Gamestop, a Babbages, and an EBgames store in my area. I should be able to pick it up.

However, I won't be able to play yet because of work.

Blast! I hate 12-hour shifts now.

How about you get not only to test the game at an early state but can also make suggestion to what should be changed in the game. You get to point the devs in the direction you think would make the game more fun to play and you don't have to program it youself. I think thats what makes me join as betatester from time to time :D ...and ofcourse to play the game :wink:

The game doesn't care if you are left or right handed (at least, X² didn't, so I don't see why X³ would), and there's plenty of sticks for lefties, even if it means buying an ambidexterous one! :)

Does the UK release have Starforce? I want this game so much, my fingers are tickling to press "order", but if it uses Starforce, I'm not buying it. Period.

This is not the thread for CP discussion, especially as the information is not yet available. :)

I guess I'll just have to wait before ordering it, then... Does anybody know when the information will be released? (Upon release date, etc...)

Sorry for dragging on this off-topic thing, but I find it somewhat unnecessary to start a new thread just for this one question...
