Are there any new pictures due on X2? I know there was some negative response when you last asked the forum on the image quality, but there's still plenty of people out here who appreciate them!

I must have stepped on someone's toes as I had words from "higher up" re the screenshots I published. I think I will let that go for a while as some of the features in the current "semi alpha and a half" are not the same as the one that is getting worked on. As I mentioned every now and then, these screenshots are only from a beta, this would have explained it if some of the screenshots had not been compatible with the release version. I spend a lot of time and effort getting these screenshots as right as can be and showing them here, time I can spend more satisfactorily somewhere else.
Unless someone else (meaning EGOSOFT) will publish them, I guess for the time being I will not.

Thanks for what you've done already CJ. The last thing I think anyone here wants to happen is for you to be banned from posting any more here, be it screenshots or other things.

Let's hope Egosoft publish some more teaser screenshots soon.

I was not banned from publishing screenshots, I only thought as the current version of X2 -The Threat I have and I can take screenshots from does not reflect the current state of what is in it, I thought it appropriate not to publish any screenshots for the time being.

So how much more are they adding in

[Commander Jamieson]

Even if I wanted to or was allowed to tell, but I do not know. Just because a "beta" (which it is not) is available does not mean a program is finished and needs just to iron out bugs etc. So, my guess is, (quite) a bit of graphics and features and so on are still getting developed at this instance. And even if some things are done already, if the powers that be decide to change this, then it will be changed. Like for example the square lasers you see in the current screenshots. BurnIt said here in the forum some weeks ago, they are round now and metallic looking. So it seems it is happening with other stuff as well plus things are getting added on and on.
Missions are getting build all the time by various people but which missions will end up in the release version of X2 - The Threat only Bernd knows. And so on and on........

Cheers

Thanks for the reply CJ, and for the effort you've put in so far in getting info and pics to us.
