You do not understand what are station platforms in Rebirth too.Night Nord wrote: Unless you mean station platforms, no.
These are landing pads for the Albion where the character can exit and meet NPC. Not quite the same thing than a video in the corner, eh ?
No, it is not the same. Can you sabotage factory production in X3 ? Can you disable a ship engines ? Can you selectively destroy a turret (not just random equipement as with ID) ? The possibilities are endless, and go far beyond ship/loadout.Of course customization feature is cool and allow for more smooth upgrade path, but that's just improvement of we already have - change ships + change weapons.
We disagree indeed. There are ways to defend stations in X3, but none equal guns on the stations directly.And yes, you can't place laser towers around your complex. As modules could be destroyed separately - it IS a complex hub with laser towers. Just tightly placed (as nobody loves to tow stations into complexes - that's boring).
Uh, really ? The only plot event which is (arguably) independent of the player is the destruction of President End. The rest of the plot does not trigger, no matter how long you wait. I have played some long games without touching it.In X2 plot was just independent from the player. If you are too slow - it will go without you.
Bernd has told this several times, it is not speculation.we don't know much about plot and it's mandatoriness and that's info you can't reveal without spoilers.
Err, you should read the definition of the word "mandatory". There is no off switch (until modding comes).And that's not changing gameplay - just switch it off and be happy. Far from being radical change.
This again... I never said X or Y feature was unclear or revolutionary in the genre. Just that they do change Rebirth from past games.You can't influence course too much (or you will exit midway). And yes, it's just tradelines (Trade Lanes) from Freelancer with same mechanics (I even hope that they will be interruptible as in Freelancer). So, what is exactly unclear about them?
Wrong. And I am not your sparring partner. Stop trolling.Given amount of arguments you've missed out of my post I would rather say that you do not have it and trying to answer only what you have "counterarguments" for.
