Steam Christmas Sale 2012

I'd just like to point out to everyone buying these that there are several mods that are absolutely essential to play this game properly. Things like CAGS make setting up a trading empire 1000x easier and there are a load of other ones I can't remember any more but you really sghould check them out, it's like a bethesda game only even more needed.

Secondly, you cannot play this game without the wiki. It's not a game you just pick up and it is very deep with a big learning curve.

Thirdly, you can easily lose 200 hours into these games. They are what you make of them. You can't say if you like it or not till you play it. I guarantee you though that if you go into it with the mind that you won't like it, you probably won't. Few games can bring about that excitement of flying about in your tiny ship running away from colossal ships knowing that one day you will own one your self and it takes a lot of work too. it's not a set "play this game 20 hours and you'll reach top tier". you need to be able to capture one or gain the millions of credits. it's no easy feat but it is extremely rewarding.

:EDIT:

Going to get all my mods downloading for X3TC and I'll post a thread up perhaps detailing what to get and where to start perhaps.

If you want to get started your self you will find a list of many (not all) mods here. You will see they are vast and that is a sign of a loved game with a strong community. The new game comes out next year and it will be a big release I suspect.

Thanks very much :cool:
 
Well I've posted up my startings of the mod guide. It's quite the challenge to get through and i cannot work on it any more tonight because I am getting a head ache. Hopefully what is up will be helpful to some at the moment.

If you are looking to play without XRM I will try and get something up on that tomorrow

Got the GTA Complete Pack last night. I've been playing GTA3 on my Nexus 7 so I'm in the mood!

Also learnt about the icenhancer MOD. So I'm gonna give that a go :)

I spent too much time trying to get ice/other ENB configs to look beautiful that i forgot to actually play the game :)
 
Just to give those members who have purchased X3:TC latter game will get increaslingly laggy especially in systems where you have complex factory loops.

It does but once you have set it up you rarely need to go in, also i think there is a mod which helps things and improves the fps.
 
Thinking of buying Assasins Creed, I was wondering which game is the best to get or or should I buy the first few. Or go the whole hog and buy all the AC games.
