NEWS: X Rebirth 3.0 and The Teladi Outpost DLC are here!

[Skeeter]

Had a quick go on the teladi start. The station looks ok but where do you dock? I had hoped a manual docking like the old x games or elite dangersous (see they put manual docking in and i love it, shame u removed it) Also if you go near it i notice alot of flickering low res shadows and lighting issues so i turned off shadows. Helps smooth fps out too when swinging from left to right views imo.

Really liked the teladi comms intro, just like from xbtf a nice homage there, thankyou as i loved that in the original game where you didnt know em and used a translator etc, tho i still liked the voices from xbtf and the look, and not in rebirth very much i guess u either wanted to modernize em or didnt have the voice actor from back then still. Shame.

The new ships near the station. Did you play homeworld at all devs, it looks like http://homeworld.wikia.com/wiki/Kadeshi_Mothership imo tho textures etc diff but shape the same more or less. Looks cool tho i guess, duno what they are suppose to be tho.

Not seen much else yet. Also wonder when the story starts with the teladi start as all i got told was somit about u had some ships and they wernt in ur fleet yet and it said to do somit but cba to do that rubbish as wanted just to talk to interesting npcs for a story but ah well either there isnt a good dedicated story with this or its spaced out in mini pieces over time which i never liked in x games, give me a strong constant story any day than basic poor missions dotted around.

I found the Albion gate to Teladi space, but I cannot find the OL gate - what I'm doing wrong?

It's a wee bit outside the zone, I guess it's technically meant to be sorta hidden so you'll have to do a bit of looking for it.
Just keep an eye on your hud as you move around the outskirts of the zone and you should see the icon for a gate pop up

GREAT WORK EGO!!

Just had a quick play (mainly to see if my save games and the mods I use still work), but am very impressed what I seen so far.
Not found the TO yet, but didn't really look for it.

Only minor complaint I have is you took away my ability to play the "original" start-up music. (maybe some kinda soul can tell me what I have to rename the music file to in the music folder to get it back) as I don't really like the new music on loading

Ohwell, better go start updating my mod list thread for 3.00

[BigBANGtheory]

you solved the open space to Teladi zone space transition problem I see, well done

[werewolves?]

Yeah good work, looking forward to what comes out next now that the game is maturing.

Egosoft should be aiming to get to a Final Fantasy style version number:

Pressing "w" works as normal, but if you double tap it, you will start to run until it is released.

Congratulations Ego! Great release, game is eminently playable now. Having a blast!

Check keybindings under settings.

nothing there (

nothing there (

As ty_cho already said, double-tap the walk button, which is W by default.

[NEMESIS165]

Can someone pls post a screenshot how it suposed to look

[CBJ]

I'm not sure what you're asking for. A screenshot will not show you double-tapping a key. Once again, it's the same key used for walking forwards that you need to use, but you press it twice.

[NEMESIS165]

It does only steering when i double tap

[Senner]

Hit the key 'w' twice like when you double click your mouse(and hold it down the second time)

[NEMESIS165]

Ah sorry i got it all wrong Its working now

[Sparky Sparkycorp]

Doesn't following ty_cho advice help?

Quickly double-pressing you 'walk forward' button should make Ren run.

I put in a LOT of hours playing from v. 1.0 through 1.5 or so, and only checked in a bit here and there for the various 2.0+ patches, and I'm now starting a new Free Play with the release of 3.0 & the Teladi Outpost. I have to say I'm very impressed so far--the universe is slowly but surely being transformed by the devs into a really interesting place to fly around in.

It seems like there are a metric ton of mechanics to tinker around with now--for instance, I love how they've made it rewarding to actually get out of your ship and explore & talk to people to create Trade Agents and find crafting options for advanced small talk options. Just one thing out of many.

Outstanding job, Egosoft. I really appreciate the fact that you've stuck with it and kept improving your game

so why ARE there no highways in Teladi system?

or is there a story somewhere that tells you why? (only been playing previous freeplay saves to find Teladi outpost)

Does it matter?
It might be correlating with the fact that the sector is inhabitated not really inhabitated by the Teladi Union but much more by Pirates and much much more by an electrostatical nebula.
Also you should have a closer look if there are really no highways at all.
