Hmm, I showed this vid to some mates at another forum.

So I asked him where it said that:
BlueFlames wrote:At 3:39, "Build your factory empire as others do the same."

I suppose that could mean other AI characters, but the wording seems ambiguous.
He's right - a fair few people could read "multiplayer" into that, and we could be facing even more "multiplayer?!?!" threads as a result.

Oh wow, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, SWEET!

That is one lovely video.

I am getting extremely excited about this game! :D

Except... You don't suppose that after an hour of playing one could get blasé about all this?

Nah. Never!

Just simly amazing. I am not even going to critisize - it isn't finished yet. I can't say enough about the scale - this is the FIRST TIME that anyone has ever gotten close to correct station/planet scale and movement physics ... STUPENDOUS!!!!!!!!

I completely agree the first station is none other than a Teladi Station.

The music is soooo appropo ... AZ's work is second to none. Simply beautiful. All of it.

THANKS and HURRY UP!!

It seems the music is settled then, every one and his dog loves it, so no need to spend any time on it anymore :D

lets get the game released, preferably yesterday :o

graphics are superb
music superb

all i need to do now is buy my all singing super machine to play the game.
Im gonna treat myself to one of these power junkie computers with maxed out components, graphics and sounds.

I want the ultimate machine to get the ultimate prize :twisted:

I take it a few of you have been to excited to even read the download description :P. You don't need to guess at what the stations are, it states in the download description,
This movie shows off the new graphics for the Teladi and Split Trade Stations in the upcoming game X³: Reunion. The movie was created by using the games new graphics engine.

File Formats: WMP and AVI.
:)

BurnIt! wrote:IMPORTANT NOTE
It is not recommended to download the 1024x768 DivX version unless you have a High End PC! (> 3Ghz!) Otherwise the movie is likely to stutter. Please use the lower resolution or WMV versions.
Better increase that CPU recommendation... 'twas choppy on this 3GHz machine. Not too choppy, but not quite perfect either.

Not as excited about the music as others maybe... it's a different style I guess.

Graphics are :thumb_up:

Music is ok.

Probable system requirements are :thumb_down:

But is that really so unreasonable? After all, you can orbit the Earth in 90 minutes. And the gate systems in X2 are supposedly in some sort of planetary orbit. Also, the Pegasus can fly at 1000+ m/s, or 1 km/sec. That's 3600 km/hour. So the scale may be a little off, but it's not that bad. But let's just hope we have a little more realistic distances between the planets themselves. Two planets almost touching, and still intact? I don't think so. :P
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.
