Great!

encore!!!

I can't decide whether to lock this or make it a sticky thread.

We really need a wild applause emoticon.

I stand by my desire to have versus mode x3

From the other thread.

Just have 1 sector, big and empty (about 150km across), give 2 players a certain amount of credits (decided at the beginning of the current game), and 1 shipyard (home base) each that has all possible ship/equipment/software in the game (except, perhaps m7ms, or make their missiles limited to 40 flails 20 hammer torps each, and limit m8s to 50 tomahawks each). The base can also sell things like lasertowers, squash mines, and satellites (for recon).

Each side also gets 2 medium weapons platforms (this part is configurable at the start of the game) for base defense.

The player who gets their home base destroyed first loses.

Yes, full blown multiplayer x3 would be a disaster, but I think space duels would be fun as hell.

Gazz is now my favourite forum person

Obviously this one's a keeper. Gazz, perhaps a little prose at the top summarising the salient points?

Probably both. That list has plenty of open threads to reply to. =)

so true

Ye gods, you're right. Quick, someone seal the breaches!

Gazz, just prose up top with a searchlink for X3 multiplayer and a reminder not to bump would be the way to go.

psst. The second thread down is nothing to do with X Online. It's someone asking how to add a signature picture

Actually, you could put it here
http://forum.egosoft.com/search/index.html

In theory that would keep "I want X3 online" posters busy for a while.
In practice we know that they never read or search or they would have found a dozen of these thread to reply to.

I think you need planets you can land on....

I'll get my coat.

...now we just need a Cockpits FAQ, Planet Landing FAQ and a Walk Through Stations FAQ... Gazz?

(of course, *then* what would the crusty X old-timers have to complain about?

About the number of FAQs cluttering the forum.

Why don't you do the next one? I'm sure they can be... arranged... in a useful manner. Just consider it your share of home improvement. Only with fewer painful accidents.

The forum search won't be very helpful but a google search with site:forum.egosoft.com and the apropriate search terms...

Despite the fact that I'm one that yearns to share the X universe with my friends, I have to applaud you for this post, sir.

Brilliantly done

Fantasic post Gazz

I don't think just making it a sticky is sufficient. I think we should all adopt a mission to keep this on page 1 forever

Or everyone add it to their signature?
