IGN wrote a pretty bad review for X2 - The Threat, so I wasn't expecting much.

Changes have also been made to make some of the existing ship classes more relevant.

There is also a brief mention of a complete and functional manual, if there is the time and money left to actually make it.

There is always this forum to fall back on.

Since it still looks like a ways off until it's released maybe I'll actually try and get through the plot on X2TT.

The screenie of the 4 winged Split fighter looks very interesting.
Here's to hoping it has some decent shields.

Soon it will be time to send the wife and kids on vacation...

Picture
oooh i so want that ship! looks like a frigate, also in the return, customisable ships, fuzzy dice for instance, go faster stripes and paint jobs, chnageable engine trails, possibly the MAC gun from halo (big assed cannon on ship which would make the mass driver look like a pea shooter) to name a few.

After the hype about the "artificial life" engine (read - "a couple of ship patrols and some TP's") I'm not trying to get too excited with all the new info. However its still looking amazing that they can do all that with X2.

I remain cautiously optimistic that this is going to be awesome.
