![]() ![]() ![]() I’ve been flying the unfriendly skies of the latest installment, and so far (even though no story-mode levels are included yet, have to wait for the 2.0 update) so good. I played the MOD of X3: Reunion, it added new story lines, new bad guys, and a whole lot of fun! This time the saints behind the last one have bled, sweat, and teared- to bring us X3:XTC 1.1, the best iteration of the X3 universe yet… and it’s completely done off the books! By a coolest group of people around- the mod team. X3: Reunion, X3: Xtended X3: Terran Conflict, and now at long last X3: Xtended Terran Conflict… Designed, written, built, coded, and animated by fans for the fans. Join up with the military and fight the war against a new threat- the Xenon horde. ![]() It’s possible to build your own self-sustaining weapons factory, for instance, or if you really want to make money- and don’t mind attracting shady characters- then a space weed plant is for you! Or an equally profitable Space Fuel Distillery!Īny way you cut it, X3’s open economy and diverse universe is fun, fast, and dangerous. You can even purchase special custom complex construction kits that allow you to hook stations together in order to minimize the amount of secondary resources it requires. They also let you buy your own mines, solar-power plants, food processing stations, equipment docks, the works. As time goes on and you rake in the cash, you can buy bigger ships, huge TL tankers with compressed cargo-bays that allow for more freight. Whatever tickles your space-flight fancy. Or there’s the less subtle route, hire some mercs to ride a suicide-mission in a shaky troop-transport long enough to board and capture a bigger ship, then hire more mercs and repeat. There’s always a station or a mine that needs supplies and it’s up to you to find the best deals to buy, and where to sell those goods for prifitssss. X3 has a fully-realized economy, where factors influence locally and universe-wide. Save up cash early and buy yourself a freighter, begin to make some trade runs, get to know the galaxy. ![]() Whether you decide to join up and fight the good fight, blasting away squadrons of pirates and ancient alien invaders known as The Ka’hK… Or decide to spend your time hunting down some of the many floating goodies in space- X3 has got all the epic space gameplay you can handle. The thing about the X- Universe games, is that they are open for you to explore any avenue of the games basic point- money=power. Sometimes run ins with other races can be downright explosive, so it’s advisable to listen to any patrolling police officers or military presence you might hear hailing you when u jump into a new sector. Either way you start the game, you’re going to be unknown in the galaxy… Especially in the sectors outside whichever you call home. Let’s say a Teladi trader, or an Argon pilot, it’s up to you- and each pick has a certain amount of either $ or power (a bigger ship to start). When you first boot up a new game of X3:Reunion or X3: Terran Conflict, you have a choice whether you want to be a certain type of character. The best part is, the galaxy is open for business. In this galaxy live 5 different species, each with their own history and culture that has survived for thousands of years. I’m serious, it’s a universe where each planet is linked through a system of jump gates that allow instantaneous travel. There is another galaxy (not so far, far away…) just waiting out there and I bet you didn’t even know it existed. ![]()
