I have made this thread for people to post comments, as for some reason I could not.
@Roguey; When I click the '0 Comments' but (as I usually do to comment) it just takes me to the news post a no where to enter a comment.

Right, I had a read through of what Roguey said,

*All qoutes in this post are quotes of Roguey

4Gb of ram should do (I'm feeling a bit over-kill with 16Gb).

I am running a Dual-Core 3GB, and it works perfectly, but with lowered graphics setting, which makes no big difference in my eyes.

The next thing I noticed was the increased size GUI display (very welcomed)

One of the best things they have done, it is perfect size now. Any bigger /smaller it would have looked wrong.

I quick check of my ship and its an M6 (nice)

If this was X3TC, it would have been over-kill giving us an M6, but as you said there are so many Caps fighting in this game, its amazing. In the Argon campaign, you start in a fighter, but get given an M6 after a couple of missions.

Warning, incoming missile".. er? what heck?! A few moments later "Warn..War ... War.. Warning.... Warning, incoming missile".. this sounds like fun:

Big...Big....Big mistake in this game. Too many missile, I got myself an M7M (script editor (in my second save game)) an Argon Minoteur and it just completely owned 2 M2s and 2M1s and a few M7s, without taking a scratch.
Although in the real-world, it would be limited by resourses, you can't just have 500 Hammer-Heavy's, use them in 2mins then expect a re-load... it's just mental. M7Ms should have had smaller cargo bays to make them more of a hit and run ship. Go on, pop off 20 missiles and then bugger off. Let the Caps get the kill.

Your defence? well not much


When it came to defense, (this being in my M7M) Along with the energy cells for jumping, and the hammer heavy's for killing, I loaded up a load of Mosquito Missiles, with the Hammer you can launch a lot at once. That is good for defense against missiles (it's what Mosssies where made for) Targeting can be an issue though.

'Missile defence' on my turrets, just doesnt work too well for Hammer Heavies

Read my mosquito missile thing above^^

All ships have have more hull

I noticed this, it's like they have gone from using cling film to steel, it's a huge leap. I think what Ego are doing is to show the scale of this war which will lead to the Rebirth. Each side just get more and more powerful until it's too much.

being one of the best X-Games yet

Urm... yes but no. My best X-Game is and probably always will be X2 The Threat. But X3AP is defiantly one of the best.

Its good to see someone else agrees with most of the points ive made, as there's many good things in X3AP.

M7M's do need a good knocking down, but im not sure how. Would limiting down the amount of missiles help? as your be forever re-loading the ship then? you could always get an TS to escort you, then beam missiles off that. So that's not really a way of limiting the M7M. I think its got to be done by the missile or the launcher.. either change of stats, or some kindof timer.

Minoteur and it just completely owned 2 M2s and 2M1s and a few M7s, without taking a scratch.

You would of thought an M2/1 would of at-least had some comeback? I bet you cant even tell your docked ships on your M1 to defend against missiles - although seems a bit of a waste to send ships just to defend against missiles.

Urm... yes but no. My best X-Game is and probably always will be X2 The Threat. But X3AP is defiantly one of the best.

The reason I said this is because it looks like egosoft have listen to the community by changing and improving many features we been asking for. So well done ego for doing that.


ps. Ill look into the comment system - no idea why its not working at this time Question mark [FIXED - just had a path wrong for some reason]
