Egosoft unveils X4: Timelines expansion and major 7.00 update to X4: Foundations

Now that you say it - it does seem to be longer than normal Collossus.

If so, this hopefully also includes 2 additonal L turrets to cover that plus in length... The measly L turret on the original Colossus chassis barely manages to cover the upper part of the ship (in terms of actually hitting targets)

When will we hopefully be hearing more news about the expansion? =)

Judging by the screenshot of the week competition starting from week 08 its reasonable to assume that there will be an announcement in 8 weeks time. This also lines up with the Northern Hemisphere spring which is when they have said that there will be more information for 7.0 and the DLC

I take the week 08 to mean week 8 of the year 2024.

It's the first weekly meeting of SOTW screenshoters after all.

Any idea when this will drop?

As of now, this dlc leaves me lukewarm.

Separate out of game scenario's I believe is great for a tutorial / bringing in new players (which is a good thing), but as a paid dlc, i don't see too much value in it.
What I'd like to know is what this will bring to more veteran players.

New ships to unlock ? Sure, but if the other races (and possibly the galactic crisis) also get them, why should the player bother ? (ie what's in it for the player).
Of course a lot of it is undefined. For now my attitude is wait and see.

Me Too! ... but fortunately for us this game is an exercise in patience so we should all have more than most.

"thrilling new storyline which takes place outside of the X4 sandbox" this is the bit I'm not sure about, it could be a good thing or

What I do know is having spent a lot of time and effort setting up and acquiring fleets and assets in X4 is I like to be able to use them in stories and plots.

I presume we'll be re-living some of the old battles from X history. Taking a fleet of Asgards in for a fight that's made for one X-shuttle and some escorts wouldn't be fun.

а можно сделать по-другому, набери флот, чтобы открыть сюжетку-историю X4 )
