Well i have preloaded it and i am waiting on Friday. I wonder if their will be any missions like the hub? Now that was a fair old challenge.

This one-ship thing - you can still control other ships remotely right?

I took so long trying to complete the hub mission I actually forgot how to play the game.

I've read you can board them and give the captains orders on what you want them to do or something like that.

So indirectly yes.

Yeah, it's supposed to be like a chain of command on the big capital ships.

I find it a bit odd that in the videos I've seen, you are a spec in comparison to some of the ships you 'command'. Doesn't really give you a feeling of power.

I would be beyond happy if they had a 3rd person type of view of the ships like in EVE.

I did that before in X3.... watched the so called captain play chicken with a station.

 

[Imy]

Board a ship just to instruct it to move somewhere? That'll get old quick.

I meant like in X3:TC where you could create wings of ships then order them to do stuff like jump into a sector and destroy whoever had the nerve to attack one of your transport ships while the transport ship makes a sharp exit.

Got a free weekend, so this would be perfect to play... But the bugs really don't sound fun!

 

[Glaucus]

So tempted, but its £39.99 is insane, im not paying that.
Sim city V will be my last full price mistake. Bring it down to £25 max.

 

[NZB]

£35 on Amazon and i imagine it'll be cheaper elsewhere after launch. Even so, considering the amount of hours the X games consume i don't mind paying full price.

Indeed. You'll certainly get value for money.

If the game will have fairly good reviews, I don't think it will be cheaper than £29.99 for a long time after release...maybe some promo before Xmas can bring price down, otherwise I wouldn't expect less. So...fiver more for hard copy from amazon...seems ok for me.

 

[Imy]

Even the good games drop in price on the PC I thought. I picked up Bioshock Infinite for £12 back in August.

 

[nitram100]

Argghh just found out I am working this weekend! Bought a hard copy from amazon, will have to play it Monday.

 

[frontier]

After I read this http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=306576 about drons and possible modifications I am a bit more optimistic ;]

Imy...sure it will cost much less than mentioned 29.99 in some future but having this game in 5-6 months time it's not an option for me

Was that a cough nitram? you don't look so well towards the end of this week..

Anyone else order this through zavvioutlet on play when it was £25? It's showing as 6-7 days estimated delivery for me so that looks like it's gonna be getting cancelled

Anyone ordered with them before and had the game on release day?

I did and if you read the description when you preordered it says it will dispatch it a few days before the release date

No way will it take 6-7 days.

Preload complete!
