I'm guessing the ones that look like grey jellyfish thingies are organic kha'ak ships.

The grey jellyfish thingies are jellyfish. They now complement the rock beetles and the space dragons.

And the new universe will be explained very thoroughly, don't worry about that.

Ah, yes, 'cos the Kha'ak were the big kha'ak looking things! They looked epic.

I have only one word for the team

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW FANTASTIC TRAILER

X2-Eliah · Post by **X2-Eliah** » Fri, 3. Dec 10, 21:53

There are no Kha'ak in the trailer at all - those things are either the jellies, or your video card is showing triangular artifacts

Flapping dragons...?
It looks like they are trying to fly in an atmosphere.
Perhaps the model needs to be modified so that it fits a little better with not flying in an atmosphere.
Perhaps less motion implying it needs to push down to move forward and more motion implying that it needs to push backwards to move forward.
Perhaps two trails which emit from the wings?
shrugs

Besides that and the overly large sunflares which envelop the ships when looked at from the sides, everything looks amazing.

I really like the orbs emitting from the jellyfish.

No Sol system, just earth.. ahh.. the immersion factor just decreased.
I'm hoping that it is increased elsewhere to make up for that.
I think a system of sectors all interrelated is an amazing concept and greatly adds to the immersion.
Sure the cloudbase square is a nice collection of interrelated sectors.. but it is nothing like the arrangement and separation of Sol, albeit Sol should have more than one entrance.

As everyone has said, very cool, can't wait to get it.
Maybe one of the easier things done, but I gotta say, that soundtrack rocks.

Ummm, H2O...I believe they said a whole new galaxy...so NO Earth at all, no Sol system. Just new open space and Aldrin, the one system they said was staying from before.There will be plenty of immersion, I'll bet, It'll just come from a new story and new adventures...not from rehashing old ones.

So if we have a early version of X3:TC we have to up it to the lastest version then load the new mod?

Will it be compatible with some of the mods here?

The trailer looked good with some very excellant ships and effects..

Unserene · Post by **Unserene** » Sat, 4. Dec 10, 03:50

Good trailer. Looking forward to the release. Good luck

coldwynn · Post by **coldwynn** » Sat, 4. Dec 10, 04:38

Incredible work!

Quite a few Asgards in the last fleet. Are they for show or an unknown sector claim?

Sorkvild · Post by **Sorkvild** » Sat, 4. Dec 10, 08:53

I stopped bothering with TC. Now it's time for XTC and all it has to offer.

This trailer unveils many nice details and features, this mod will surely push X3 into new level!

Wonder if rock beetles and dragons will be cappable just ike in XTM

:D

Trailer is realy nice done - cant wait for it to be released.

some minor critic/ideas what to improve in the upcoming projects

the project lacks/lacked "public relation"

* you missed the chance to apply for the (upcoming) mod of the year at moddb(atleast i didnt saw a "vote for us")

* the facebook pages arent updated on a regular basis

* well, tbh even your "own" forum isnt updated regular
if you got something awesome in your pipeline like XTC - keep ppl talk about it/visit your websites/Teaser the news-magazins.
But dont let the last official update be 10month old.

Beeing a "free-time modding" team isnt an excuse, get some1 to take a few screenshots/mini video clips/whatever, write a few lines of "news" and publish it on your various platforms.

dont get me wrong - i admire your work on the mod, dying for his release since TC came out -- but you realy should and could rally the masses for it, and the best way is PR.

StarCrack · Post by **StarCrack** » Sat, 4. Dec 10, 09:07

Much rather they get a release then talk about it

Sure, but if the time of the core team is so constrained, they should get some1 to handle the PR to post an update every month or so.

Right now (well, except maybe before the recent video) only the die-hard fans of XTended knew about XTC.
Neither the press nor the regular player - and if they knew they prolly lost interest cause the project seemed dead.

If you got something big which alot ppl will admire - let it be heard.

Well done guys. I'm a Chinese player and I've been waiting for XTC since 2009. In a Chinese BBS, we talked a lot about XTM for Reunion and the coming XTC. My friends and I like your new trailer very much. We can wait no longer for XTC.
