Captain Collins Livestream with Bernd Lehahn on December 9th, 2021

Post by Gregory » Tue, 7. Dec 21, 15:26

Time to get out the calendars and mark December 9th in red. That's the day when Egosoft founder Bernd Lehahn will be paying another visit to X4 pro Captain Collins on Twitch. Starting at 6pm CET (9am PST / noon EST / 5pm GMT), the two will jump into an approximately one-hour conversation about the past few months of X4: Foundations and, of course, the freshly revealed, third expansion - X4: Tides of Avarice.

So, best follow Captain Collins' Twitch channel today, and set a reminder for the stream on December 9th, 2021, 6pm CET.

PS: If you missed Bernd's previous visit to Captain Collins in spring 2021, you can watch the recording here.

Nice. Probably cant make it to the livestream but will definitely watch the VOD afterwards.
Captain Collins makes some good content.

No thanks, hate twitch and all it's constant flashing of "user x subscribed" "user y followed" etc.... I'll wait for it to be uploaded to you tube and hope I don't see all that rubbish.

Yes, I'm anti social. But looking forward to the "interview".

For a few interview streams, from Captain Collins there was very little to none "subscribe notification pop-ups".
He's not some major streamer who have subscribe/donation pop-up every 5 seconds.

I think he did say they're not sure that there won't be more expansions. Depending on interpretation, that might mean it's not a TC/AP like relaunch. :gruebel:

Nothing about reverse engineering or otherwise getting non-module BPs either. I guess I will just have to see what people say when it releases.

I think that the answer to the question about new piracy mechanics pretty much says that we are not getting anything new in terms of actual pirate gameplay. To me its quite surprising as I really feel like many of the systems are very barebones and we're about to get a 'piracy' dlc, and boarding itself is in need of a few critical updates at least to make it not so easy to exploit.

Yeah, I haven't much hope for it at the moment. It's disappointing, because to capture and reverse engineer ships was one of my favourite parts of X3. In X4, even boarding them sucks, because you can't recover weapons, and neither can you steal blueprints to install your own. So either I have to use mods and forefeit any future online gameplay elements, or simply give up and turn to other games for pirate gameplay.

When Collins asked about elephant in the room, Bernd was ready to spill the bean, but somehow Collins derailed this and asked about ventures :(

Bernd was assuming he was going to ask about Boron.

That's only my imagination, but it would make sence that Borons and X-22 could be connected.

Thanks for letting me know, I'm fairly new to Cpt Collins YT channel, and really hate twitch as I always seem to find the ones with loads of flashing lights big faces and stupid noises for follows etc. So I just don't bother anymore. But I'll keep it in mind next time. His interview was very good though, really enjoyed it.

I think he read your post specifically - I was laughing my ass off watching him, 30 minutes before stream, making absolutely sure (and cheking 5 more time, just to be sure) that he disabled all the pop-up, alarms and donations.

Sounds like his live streams are decent. I might give them a go, though my main issue is being available at the right time to watch live too ( or even remembering it... )

Any chances there will be a summary of the talk, like a short Q&A list that summarize the key points. Thanks.

If that's true then I'm not buying the new DLC. Would rather just wait for the next generation of X games.

Might be a while after the DLC before you find out if that is true though. Who knows when they will formally announce whatever that project is.

According to their current release cycle the next release after Tides of Avarice should be somewhat around Q1/2023.
