In Q4 2006 EGOSOFT will release a final update to X³: Reunion under the title X³: 2.0 Bala Gi Research Missions.
That is such AWESOME news :D
CBJ wrote:Key features of this update will include:
  • An exciting mission to unlock a unique new spacecraft and get hold of the biggest construction in the X universe to-date.
  • Get hold of the exclusive (and unique) M7 class prototype battleship, once owned by the Pontifex Maximus Paranidia himself. This ship is lean and mean and can dock two fighter ships.
Question: The Xenon ship thats in this post its an m7 As well? and is this the M7 the player gets (pontifex maximus's ship)??
CBJ wrote:
  • The Player Headquarters can only be built once, but will be the most powerful outpost that the player can own. With its massive storage capacity it can hold huge quantities of upgrades, repair and produce ships, and host more ships at its docks than any other station, even shipyards.
  • Bala Gi Research Inc. has developed a new M3+ class of ships. You will get the chance to distribute the blueprints for this new masterpiece of ship construction to the various shipyards.

There will also be a number of little extras like a new weapon type, sectors and various other additions and fixes. The update will also no longer require the game media to be present, so you can put your CD or DVD back in its box.

Note: This update will be available free to all owners of X³: Reunion, and will be compatible with existing savegames.
As I've always said,

"Egosoft is one of, if not the *BEST* company for supporting its games!!"

Thanks Egosoft :D I and many others eagerly await this awesome sounding update!!!

It states that there will be a new class of M3+ ship?

Can anyone elaborate on this? Will it be 1 new ship with its variations? Will it be a new ship for each race? Will it just be 1 unique ship? Will this ship have artwork that is on par with the rest of the ships in the game?

Come on people, DISH!

This update won't be released until the 4th quarter of this year ;-) Meaning october - december ;-)

When it is.. You will know! It will be plastered on the home page and lots of people talking about it in different forum posts ;-)

@ CBJ

Hey bud, does this mean that the game will be coded for the new m7 Class vessel? Currently modders are using m2 slots for the m7's in their mods (not 100% sure on what its called). Anyhow if you guys have included in the game code a new slot for vessel types.. this will be kick butt :D

w00t w00t!! I am sooo excited :D

No.. But whats your point? Egosoft has grown and changed by fan input and mods!

Would you rather Egosoft ignored what the Xtended mod has added and skipped that part? Personally, I think the creators of Xtended mod are flattered and may have possibly had a little input in this process .. however that part we may or maynot ever know :P

I would guess it will be released closer to the end of Q4. Make sure it has plenty of testing time.

Speaking of testing... Is there a beta test of it going on?

I knew this game was worth the money.

It never really ends and the scripteditor in itself makes it upgradeable to an almost infinite extent....

The screenshot of the player headquarters is FANTASTIC.

I wonder what ships you can produce with it?

Come on Egosoft, more details, PLEASE!!!!!!!!

Excuse me, I'm newbie to X3... but I had 2 Khaak M3 in my game, and is it really possible to produce them over Player's HQ ? If it really does, then how about some Khaak against Khaak ? (GIVE ME WAR... KHAAK !!) :evil:

Personal question for Egosoft, purchasing this new HQ and ships (M3+ and M7) does require level-up for rating or notoriety for each races ?

Thx Egosoft...

Well, maybe this update will end the trash talk on the forums. Egosoft listens to the people and gives the people what it wants. period. :D

If this works, then X3 is truly complete.

For a start...

W0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000T!!!!!!!


Ok, now onto seriousness. There is no point spamming questions as no doubt these wont be answered until nearer the time of release, or you'll find it yourself.

That Xenon ship is the P, or im 90% sure it is, meaning we might have a chance of capping one now, or building one even.

Didn't anyone else see the mention of blueprints? P blueprints = built P :twisted:

I love the look of that PHQ, it'll be nice to replace my current HQ building with said structure...

And M3+? whats with that?

And if there's only One M7, I'm glad its Paranid.

I await this release eagerly.

Also anyone noticed Egosoft is like a bus stop? Wait months for news then we get two lovely nuggets slapped on our plate, in the same day :D
