New Player Coming From X4

Post by RyanHeart »

Hi everyone, so i am in pretty much late to end game in X4, finished all plots having 50 ish 100 modules each stations and probably around 400-500 ships totalling around 20billion net worth also unlocked every blueprint.

I want to say hi to my old old friend, my first X game, i remember when it came out more than 15 years ago so X3.

Last time i checked, x3 tc, i bored really quick as there is no travel drive and seta turning off really easily, İ played x2 lately to get my x universe lore complete (cheated money bought bunch of ships and finished the main plot)

Now, i heard X3 is the big daddy, most expansive and biggest most dynamic x universe so far. Is that true ?.

I want to finish all plots from x3 but i don't want to do tedious tasks and build bunch of things in every single X3 iteration. So i want to play one of them and play it well, no cheating only straight up good play.

So is this possible ? I need a guide, i installed every x game right now, is there any way to experience all plots of x3 games in a single playthrough ?

Please help, i am lost

To experience all the plots in a single game, you can use X3FL and the old plots mod, that adds the TC and AP plots.

Start with one of the FL starts that plays through the FL plot un a seperate part of the universe then leads into the r3st of the plots after

Yes you can if you're not worried about keeping it as vanilla as possible

Guilds also has the advantage of allowing you to do both sides of the AP plots in a single game

The game starts are in groups, so pick any of the starts in the "Farnham's Legacy" group, which are the only starts that do the main FL plot.

The FL plot technically takes place at the same time as the other story, but in a different part of the galaxy. So you do that first, then when you get back to normal space, you start doing the rest of the plots after.

for Reunion, the plot is only the first few missions right now and just for testing (its not complete)
