The rest of the game looks amazing, the new capital ships in paticular are gorgeous and the new factories are pretty cool. Plus the requirements of race levels / combat levels influencing purchase of ships (like that a lot).
Ahh, the game will be glorious as it was meant to be

Sorry - I omitted this from the main article and just answered it elsewhere (or rather CBJ did). Yes, your 1.0 saves will carry over to 1.2 with no problems.

Yes, registration of X³: Reunion is working now, but the query e-mail address, registerx3@egosoft.com will not be active until later on Friday (almost said tomorrow!)

That sounds cool. Even though I am an avid cockpit lover, if there is enough other neat things added PLUS they are getting the major bugs fixed, then I too will get my copy once the dust settles down a bit. It is much more hopeful.

Sorry for going OT for a sec but I tried to reg and it still gives me an error 404 thingy screen. Or do I reg where the additional game bit is in my profile?...I thought that was only if you had more than one copy of X2.
In the beginning, the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move...

I think pre-registered X2 games are creating a conflict still, so best wait until tomorrow please. Thanks (it won't affect your download, as you have to go past the game security first to get there)

One Question for those of us without DSL or cable modems - How big is this patch going to be? Currently a 3-MB files takes me about 1.5 hours to download.
Is the ingame benchmark going to be enabled with said patch? Was hoping to see a benchmark thread already since alot of people have the game now but since people said its greyed out and your screenshot confirms this i was thinking if its going to be enabled and usable for the 1.2 patch.
Really it should be usable without it as its a retail game they have so should be usable from when they installed it.

So it won't be available as a stand alone download? I wouldn't be able to download it then, as I don't have net access from my home computer, which is where I'd have x3 installed - and I can't install x3 on this pc..... I hope qv will have the patches shipped with it...otherwise what do people like me do (probably a small segment of the market, but still).
I hope it available as a standalone download and doesn't rely on the games auto update etc.

Depending on how well it compresses it should be 50 to 60 MB.
We will make a simple self extracting RAR right away, to allow you guys to have it as soon as possible and make a nicer version with installer a little later.
