As for the combat missions, the last station combat mission I took in my first game (1.4) spawned three corvettes and a lot of escorts....I was in a sabre and it was supposed to be "easy." Needless to say I didn't win. I'd put everything I owned into seven ST/UT's and they didn't work. The sudden realisation that my combat rank had got too high for me to complete combat missions in my current ship hurt to be honest, since earning money suddenly became a chore rather than fun. I felt cheated and I almost stopped playing at this point; I'll bet a good number of noobs would stop playing at this point too.
I agree. I have barely started playing and already can't run the combat missions because the easy ones spawn a M6 100% of the time. Not even the X enon large fighter I captured has a chance against them, much less the sabre.
I have completed all the X series, so not quite a noob, butTC scaled a lot faster than X 3R. Since the special equipment for the other missions is not easy to find the first time thrrough, those can't be used to make money and slow the combat ranking. I still think X2 is the best of the series.
It has not been made yet. We are hoping to start the X3TC script signing process soon, where several scripts will be chosen and tested by L3+ Devnet users. There is no time frame for release at the moment, so just keep your eyes peeled for further news.
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games

It's in the OP... 2.0 update will be available for download on the official release date...
Existing owners of X3: Terran Conflict (DVD-ROM and Steam) will also be pleased to know that concurrent with the US DVD-ROM release, X3: Terran Conflict 2.0 – The Aldrin Missions will be made available for download as a patch from Egosoft.com and Steam.

A lone M6 is easy to kill in a Sabre. Maybe if you end up with a bunch of M6s on your case it's time to skedaddle.
In 2.0 I hope they some more commands, like scan ships, so you can have a police force, or maybe something like your PHQ secotr becoming YOUR sector, and you can change illegal goods, that would be fun!
Set Illegal Goods: Photon Pulse Cannon
Comm: Surrender and drop your frieght!
Has anyone else noticed that Special Command Software (I think, and maybe explorer as well) is MK1, but there's no MK2, hmmm...!

Hi everybody. I'm not sure where to post my question, but I guess posting it here is ok. The question is simple is 2.0 supposed to be save-compatible with 1.4? I really don't want to start everything from the scratch after the patch is out. If yes, than should I wait for all mods I use to update to 2.0 and continue my game after that?
The save games will be compatible, but mods may be a different matter. You will need to check each mod individually - either check yourself or visit the thread for the mod...
ATF wooden,
ATF Valhalla ( the ugly or the good looking XTM ship)
ARAn (mobile repair ship)
will any of those ship makes an appearance with 2.0?
so far i have only heard (sirokos and baldric miner)
also i believe there is a lot of people that would like to put his hands on a fenrir, thor and the rest ATF fighters. as it is (as far as i know) there is no possible way to aquire this ships in 1.4. (they dont bail.) hehe

So far as i know the ATF Valhalla exists in Terran Conflict but it's only possible to get through the cheat collection script by spawning it, also the ship is now extremely large and nothing like the XTM version and it's not possible to go through gates. I think it's the same story with the wooden on only getting it throug the cheat script
Does anyone know just how much of a nerf the Boreas is getting? Seems to me if they were going to reduce the weapons generator then fine, but give it more steering or something.
In my opinion the Terran ships are overpowered across the board. And I don't own any Terran ships so I am getting my info off of eng.x3tc.ru in case I am wrong. But they are generally faster and carry 1 or 2 extra shield slots compared to the other races. Why are they not being nerfed?

Because they don't have as much firepower as other race's ships. PPC > PSP in pretty much all respects, so while your Terran battleship may be more durable and faster than the enemy ship, it'll also take a lot longer to kill said ship than a Boreas would.
no need to worry about having to restart or anything.
