Conskill posted:I always assumed it was an aircraft R&D reference, especially since the Skunk was supposed to be a unique prototype before being lost. Nah they play off the joke as it was originally named the Pride of Albion and someone renamed it in the computer because it smelled bad. Like the devs were oddly excited about the ship being garbage.

Gorelab posted:I can kinda see that in a there's a certain charm to the kinda run down space western aesthetic. Most of X4 didn't really fit it too well, but I did actually like how much of a poo poo heap Devires in general was. Absolutely the Millennium Falcon/Serenity is proof of this. But critically they're still named something cool. Something beat up and worn down can be cool. No one is like thats so awesome that this smells like poo poo.

So the only reason I'm even a little bit hopeful for x4 being decent at launch is that Xrebirth ended up being a decent game at the end and with X4 being mostly the same engine there theoretically shouldn't be a whole lot to gently caress up. On the other hand...

The very fact that egosoft is putting their hyper niche and mega German game in the hands of not so niche streamers is an extremely good sign.

OwlFancier posted:All ships have a cockit or bridge but there aren't irrelevant areas, no. You use a turbolift basically to traverse incidental areas of the ship if there would be any between say, the landing pad and the pilot seat. No wank pod no sale

OwlFancier posted:X4 has significant technical improvements to its graphics but does not have quite as strong art direction as Rebirth does. Yeah. X:Rebirth is probably the more complete game right this second but I just can't go back to it with all the improvements in X:4.

How viable is it to just pick a faction to pirate off of without the whole galaxy hating you?

Is it better to set up a trader to yank mined stuff off my auto miners to increase uptime or just keep them auto trading?

Are the ai change mods still worth it or have they sufficiently fixed the economy in the base game?

If I've set up shop in Argon space am I relatively safe if I piss off the ZYA? Want to supplement my station income with piracy and get a rattlesnake or four.

timn posted:Nothing inherently dangerous about being hostile with the ZYA, but I think you're probably better off capturing SCA destroyers to flip for cash and buying the rattlesnakes normally instead. Boarding a rattlesnake is a really quick way to dispose of all of your marines unless you've worked or cheated your way to a full complement of 5 star dudes. SCA destroyers have all but disappeared for me. Haven't seen one in Noplieos or Hewas Twin in a couple dozen hours. Was planning on loading up an L freighter or two with Marines and sending grunts to their doom.

timn posted:Just in case you aren't doing this already, my go-to method for finding them is to set satellites at every gate to/from a neutral sector and create a custom alert to ping whenever an SCA capital ship is detected. The cool thing about custom alerts is that if you go to your alerts history and click the little arrow button it will jump you to the ship's current location on the map even if you don't have satellite coverage there. So you can send a really fast scout to that area, use the button in the alert history again, then rinse and repeat until your scout makes actual radar contact. I had the alert set up but never thought the satellites would trigger the ping. Are the regular satellites good enough for this?

queeb posted:i feel like you just have to use the falcon as your primary ship in SW interworlds Two questions about the Stat wars mod, besides obviously being star wars how does it change the gameplay like is it still an Empire builder? Second what are the good player ships besides the Falcon? Any Ls that don't feel like a chore to drive?

So what are the new starts? Kinda want to go terran but I just got a wharf started.

So is project Genisis or Terran cadet a more fun start? Or is it more of just a lore thing.

a7m2 posted:The Paranid Nemesis is still the best all-rounder in my opinion. It's very powerful and pretty fast. Isn't the Katana like straight up better besides having fewer guns though kind of a wash considering you can slap terran guns on it.

MagicBoots posted:Courier are super useful to assign as build storage traders since they are quick and can snap up small quantities of hull parts etc as they become available. They are also cheap and S-docks are plentiful so I set swarms of them as station traders and set them loose. A bit more speed is generally not worth the significantly reduced cargo capacity when comparing hulls that can both use superhighways and a medium hauler and a courier with both snap up goods a build storage needs the instant they become available.

Incidentally this is another reason why I say the Katana is just better than the Nemesis. It can do the split gimmick better than the Split.
