Could you eimagine how awesome an 'X:Online' game would be?

[Blake Gedye]

Man, I so want there to be an online game within the X universe, I mean could you imagine how awesome that would be?

Sure things like SETA would be a problem for an online game, but there could always be ways around that, like some kinda warp-drive, i duno.

but interacting with other people in a game such as X3:TC would be so fun.

kinda like EVE, but better, since it's an X game

anywho, so what do you think an online version of an X game would be like?

Oh and sorry for misspelling 'Imagine' in the topic titel, :L

It just looks stupid

There is an Edit button that you can use to correct errors.

And just to warn you, your post may not get the glowing welcome you were hoping for. This is a rather well-worn topic around here.

You'll see how worn it is... it's even got it's own sub-search heading!

Awsome yes, possible yes, will it happen... ask Egosoft... they already scrapped the one project that i know of.

Okay, I found it... I feel like a right plonker

See :
Jumpgate Evolution
EvE online
various others.

I voted No.

[mike2R]

I can't see how an online game could do anything but divert developer time and resources from Egosoft's single player games.

Since I don't care for multiplayer, a firm no from me.

[mad_axeman]

No from me as well.
Development od multiplayer means two things:
1) less accomplished single player experience.
2) all multiplayer ends up as a slug-fest.

[Wintermist]

While I would like an Online version where I could play with a friend, my main fun is single player. Instead of human mayhem and idiots, I'd rather have a more developed game world, where the AI runs business, evolve, go under, just like a regular player.

I would like to get 1€ for every topic about this.

468 then.
We'll se how this turns out
(my vote for 80+% of "No" :3).

[N4N]

I think he ask for Online game, not Multiplayer massive online game.

I mean, I wont voted for MMO base on X3. I hate MMO, and seems all nice games are going MMO lattelly , which is a pitty(KOTOR, Warcarft, etc..)

BUUUUUUUUUUUUT think about Animal crossing .....really, think about that.
Lets say, I have my universe, my X3:R or TC universe. And there is one place, where I can find a wormhole, If I use that wormhole, I can go to another dimensions and visit another X3 universes. For example I can go with my fleet to the X3 universe of Blake Gedye, I can interact with him, figth with him, help him on missions, kill him , and so many other things. Of course, he has to invite me in order for me to enter his game.

Anymal crossing is base on it, each player has his own twon, and you can visit others, which are same rtown but with different things. Let say you blew out all Xenon from your game, I will still have them.

Is just one example of an easy way to make Multiplayer game, with no need for MMO...

[supakillaii]

Easy way? That's basically the same as MMO, but with less players and players host the server.

Basically like Hellgate London. Diablo with guns and you would always be in an instance for you or your party.
Even towns existed as multiple instances because they couldn't even get that working for all players at once. To trade with someone you first had to go the same version of a town. Pretty funny.

That game was fun for the first 20 levels or so but after that you could tell which parts they ran out of money for. =P
I think that game is dead by now.

BUUUUUUUUUUUUT think about Animal crossing :lol: .....really, think about that.

I remember that game but it was called Frogger.

[IceFire909]

Freelancer for a lesser scale version online (one big thing, change SETA to superluminal tradelanes(highways))

[arcana75]

No for me too. Part of the appeal is not having to deal with <insert word> online.
