i remember the one at the observatory in Manchester a little after xt was released we were all talking about x2 and what we wanted. my father drove me up from London i missed all but an hour of it lol. really annoying. now i'm getting back into the fold again am hoping there's another x-con where we borons can kick your split butts!!! seriously it would be cool to have another x-con have a few pints share a few war and trade stories and maybe some meetstakes
That'd be fun, and a good excuse for me to fly to Europe.

In X3 days, I was just a pirate, with no race, no face, and... no money.

Welcome back. Steel has posted recently, and I talked to Helge in person last weekend so I can definitely vouch for his continued existence! The others you mention haven't been around for a while.

nice to see you about cbj. it's nice to be back in the fold and to see that the whole ethos of the forum doesn't seem to have changed in that people are still really helpful like they used to be.

hi all. i used to be daz many years ago. back in the xt and xbtf days when we borons were putting the boot into the split.
anyway thought would put a message out there to say hi and to see if anybody from the old days is about.
i'm playing x3AP at the moment although am doing it in a totally different way now. i lost what sight i had a few years ago and thought could never play these games again so i got rid of all my x games. boy that was painful i loved them. someone on the forum audiogames.net is in the process of writing scripts to help make the game much more accessible and it seems to be working. so yes i'm glad to be back in the seat again. ok it's not x4 but not sure we can do much with x4 not at this stage anyway.
so yup i am back so thought would drop in and say hi and hope some of the gang are still about.
Very sorry to hear about your sight, Daz, think it's great you've found a way to still enjoy the games and hope you still get a lot out of them. =)

hi apothos yup it's definitely good to be back for sure. i've missed the game a great deal. it's good to see that the x series is still going although having read a few things a lot of people are saying not on here but elsewhere that x3AP is still the best by far at the moment.

Yeah, can certainly see that point of view. I stopped at Terran Conflict, it's not really the same game we all enjoyed back in the day.

well a lot of people were stopping at xt or even x2 because they didn't like how the menu's were getting to be more and more complex. i guess i can see that point of view. it's harder sometimes to navigate the menu's than it is to navigate the sectors lol.

It's always nice to see a name from the good old days! I think a there were quite a few of the old guard popping back for a visit since X4 came out.
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games

Welcome back carran. Have you come back for X4 or X3FL, or both? :)

I remember reading your posts, welcome back and great to hear that you're still able to enjoy the games. I've since moved to the opposite side of this planet and had a break from the X games until relatively recently.
At the risk of being controversial, I think x3:AP is the peak of the X games so far so enjoy that! Trying to love X4 but not quite there yet, thinking about dusting off X2 again though.
