Congratulations for you! Thanks for producing unique games for us. The history of space sims has special place with big letter "X" on it. This is whole era from X-BTF and to the soon be released X4 is huge - larger part of those 30 years :). To carry one idea, evolve through time, transform and expand it, yet preserve its fundamental features - is amazing job.

Picture 1 and 3 gave me X2-feels while the rest have X-Rebirth feeling in them.

Ok that's document forgery. :sceptic: The cat now comes as a silencer on the pulse emitter. :D I hope you have seven lives. :P

Teladi Falcon was my favorite model in X1 and X2. Nice to see that design back in X4 and pushed to even more amazing design!

Unless you hide something even better (I do like new Argon Nova model - very utilitarian and minimalistic design) I think I'll gonna abuse Falcon as my primary fighter.

I would like to see the Split Mamba. :twisted: The X3 Split ships looked the best. :D

..wow, that is something I have wished for in XR... may have even suggested it 'back when' somewhere in the forums.

huge trading, ship/station management takes a good bit of time pecking away in the UI -- earlier game where I can't dock in an Arawn, surrounded by more Arawns I have found relative peace and quite in no-name zones.

My place for bureaucracy in Rebirth was the manager office. Unfortunately, there was no window. :cry:

Happy 30th birthday! I don't know how many old timers stuck around a pretty difficult industry, but kudos to whose who did and good luck for the newer employees.

I started with "X - Beyond The Frontier/X - Tension".
The "X" series is and remains the best space computer game ever.
In anticipation of "X4" YakiBoss just polishes up his cockpit (desktop) and his spaceship (computer).
Do not disappoint him (again). :wink:
SAYA KHO - Standard Pilotenuniform......grrrrrrrrrrrr

X - Beyond The Frontier, X - Tension, X² - Die Bedrohung, X³ - Reunion, XTM, X³ - Terran Conflict, XTCM, X³ - Albion Prelude, X3 - Farnham's Legacy (A new hope)
X - Rebirth (sabotaged by Khaak Collective), X4 - Foundations ( OHHHH YESSS !!! "X" has returned)

I started with X3:R, wanted it as an x-mas present after seeing a review on gamespot or pc gamer one of them.
apart from the bumpy start with waiting a week to get the patch that fixed my issue, loved it since. Not so much X:R

The 1st, 3rd, 4th image look lovely, like its X3 on the new engine, nice and clean for me the best images.

2nd, 5th image looks like X:R the cartoonie, hazy murky, nice detail but not a fan of catoonie graphics. Need realism.
Kind of over doing it on the blue hues too.

6th image i do not like, unless that is in a nebular. Its like when you look at your monitor when its turned off and you see the dots on the screen where you sneezed over the months.

Anyway looking forward to steam, added to reminders.
Happy Birthday Ego
