NEWS: X-Con on Saturday, Aug 26th at Egosoft HQ - updated 23/08

Post by BurnIt! » Tue, 15. Aug 17, 09:31

You are all invited to visit our studio on Saturday, August 26th. In the time between 15:00 and 19:00. We will be talking about X4 for the first time and also give you a first look at the game.

Another thing you can do is to try out "X Rebirth VR Edition" on different systems and discuss with our team. During the four hours we will be making smaller presentations of X4 to allow everybody to see the new material and ask questions.

If you haven't signed up already, you can register to join the event here: XCON 2017 Registration
After confirming your email-address you will receive a message with additional event details.

About the Event:
  • You will be allowed to film and take pictures during the event and talk about it openly.
  • For those that can not come in person, we will try to stream the event online. Maybe you can even ask questions online and we will try to answer them live. Be warned that everything and everybody at the event could be filmed!
  • We will provide small snacks but only that. So do not come too hungry ;) For more there are a couple of restaurants nearby (e.g Pizzeria Lido and a Supermarket).
  • In case you are searching for lodging nearby, have a look at the websites for Würselen(German) and Aachen.

No, if you do not plan to attend in person you do not need to sign up.

What we can provide as far as video material/streams go will be available to everyone without registration.

@ TVCD: Thanks. The language swap has been reported and will be sorted.

EDIT: Now sorted.

I wish I could come, but when I started planning for it, the cost kept creeping up to a sum I cannot afford if I want to eat next month. I will, however, watch the entire stream, if you stream as you hope. I am excited about X4 and wish I could join you.
(hint: maybe consider coming to PC Gamer Weekender next year?? Please??)

We are getting closer to XCON and our plans on how to reveal X4 online are also getting more concrete. It looks like we will have quite a few visitors in our small office. That's great and we think we are prepared for the masses; everybody should be able to play at least 10 minutes of any VR version they would like to test (Oculus, Vive, with VR controller, gamepad or with HOTAS and VR combined).

LIVE STREAM and Q&A:
Those of you who cannot join us in Würselen will be able to see a live stream of the event and of the X4 presentation. Because of the sheer number of visitors we will try to make one large presentation for everybody, and stream it to all of our rooms. You can ask questions from anywhere within the office AND from the internet through our new Twitch channel:

See you on Saturday 15:00 CEST (13:00 GMT/UTC, 14:00 BST) !!

i think thats a great opportunity to tell us what you've accomplished in X4, in what directions you plan to develop things further and when and how the community can help you :)

is now the "right" time to register for a DEVNET-5 level ??

Thanks for the stream.
I'm eager to see it :) but :
I'm not familiar with live stream, it's possible to watch it after the event?

Do keep in mind that Twitch will not hold the video available and online for more than 60 days (if the owner of the channel has paid Twitch to be a Twitch partner), or 14 days for the rest.

The video will not be available for ever; it's not YouTube.

The presentation will be in English. People will be able to ask questions in German (and possibly a few other languages too!) but answers will normally be in English.
