Here was I thinking that I got access to the DLC through the beta for 3.0 just aha.

I guess I just happened to come online as the update came out but before the announcement!

Been loving the new features in the beta and the work that's been done on improving a lot of areas. Massively excited to get stuck into the DLC tonight. This game has come a long way I must say, I had gone off it until 2.0 but now it's really worth playing imo.

Thanks for all the hard work Egosoft! It's a shame it was needed after launch but most companies would've ditched the project after a few bug fixes so kudos there.

The new X Rebirth 3.0 looks great, but how do I find the new Teladi outpost?

There is a gate in OL/Eclipse Clouds/Drippy Ascent. The gate in AL/Far Out/Exhaustless Mines is active as well.

Yay! Good work Egosoft! 3.0 feels like the game has finally matured, and now it's time to expand and polish!

One note on the announcement details, you should probably include some sort of explanation of the boarding changes, as they are pretty major and you'll get alot of confused people wondering why all their marines are dieing and they are failing boarding all of a sudden.

Now to try the release version.

Oh and the tutorial videos you created for 3.0 are a nice touch, you should probably have them as their own thread so new and experienced people can find them easily!

I'm currently in the Sperpentine Haze sactor of the new TO system and I'm notcing a serious lack of highways, is supposed to be like that?

YES. And be extremely careful when you fly around. I usually use a freighter as my taxi in TO, because NPC ships are programmed to follow safe path.

But the other sector in the TO system does have a highway

I would recommend the following to explore the new sectors/zones:

Go through the gate in OL and explore the highway, then go through the super highway

STOP, don't go any further

Go to Exhaustless Mines with your freighter as taxi, go through the gate, and issue the command "Take me" to the zone you discovered above.

It's a freebie, but you still have to board it.

Fly around the zone in Drippy Ascent. The gate is there.

Populate free space and add at least 10 flyables for each faction / race and we have a game.
