What would you like to see

Post by Sureal »

I was just thinking of all the things I would love to see in X2. One of the things I would love to be able to do is to fly all of the way into a station and dock the ship yourself. I've nver yet seen a game enabling you to do this. I was wondering what other things people would like to see in the game?

What I would love to see in X2:

billlions of credits on my account, hundreds of factories that are mine, sectors owned by me, and don't forget the fleets of ships of course.

But seriously... I would really like cockpits to look like in X-T, without the coloured pieces for throttle, etc., but integrated in the graphics of the cockpit.

Wing Commander 3 had this feature. All the targetting information would be displayed on MFDs inside the cockpit and not on the HUD which had to be kept clear. The gauges were accurate and showed fuel capacity and gun charge.

It rocked :)

The ability to land on planets is a nice idea, but might it get a bit confusing? I mean sure you would propbably be able to build more property but then the propertry list would get very confusing. You wouldn't be able to do much else on the planet anyway. would you?

What would be good is if you can see cities on planets! THen you could go on bombing runs :D

But I admit I'm not sure what landing on planets could add to the game.

I would like the ability to target and attack ships subsystems like engines, shields, guns etc

It might make capturing ships easier but it would be good in a dogfight if you are outnumbered

My sig at the pilots log meaning i had the game would be nice.


The menu system made much easyier

No nav sats in there

diff options for scrolling like factories/warships/race system.

Cheapest location for commodity in the universe would be great.

nav stats

instead of buying nav stailites you should pay to get the infomation from one in the sector like there is only one in the sector owned by that race

I'd like to see less pitch and yaw momentum in the fighters. This was the only gripe I had with X-T and X-Btf.

Well, you could own holiday resorts planet side that sort of thing. Instead of producing products, you could also do holidaies, that sort of thing. Or, have residential blocks planet side for those who like to have their feet firmly on the ground.

I think that although holiday resorts are out, there is an option within X2 to make a career ferrying passengers. I would rather capture these vessels myself...

Planets would be massive resource centres... the purchase of Planetary bound factories, housing, mines and refineries is reasonably simple... yet very time consuming to get right!

As soon as you bring Planets/Moons into consideration you're opening a large kettle of worms... planets provide masses of resources... and this causes problems with the space industry either all the stations are empty as the servace the planet or their being under sold by the planet!

Colonisation (maybe a new industry??), invasion (lets face it who doesn't want to even try), destruction of a planet (lexx style... the Xenon already have the technology!)... the possibilities are endless...

All of these are high on my list for X3...

I see what your saying about the planets but then it wouldn't really be an X game then. I think it would be better if it stayed in space
