guys

I just installed X2 and tried playing the first mission

is it meant to take ages to travel from one part of the sector to the other, and also it doesnt target your mission way points for you... you have to travel to the direction you think its in, and then it might appear on targetting scanner...

well annoying,

You can press 'j' to use your time-accelerator. Also, your scanning range will increase when you buy a triplex or duplex scanner.

It's true though, it's a very difficult game to get into.

Got me a Xenon L as well

Nice ship but I still prefer the Nova or the Perseus, I currently have the L on patrol with a few other ships protecting 1 of my spacefuel complexes

Click to expand...

the xenon lx is the new xenon ship which is much better than the nova

2 turrets
150 max speed and
5 25mw shields make this a beast

Well, I have been into the X3 forums, done a lot of reading... and decided I just don't have the dedication to learn this game. Don't get me wrong, it looks and sounds like an amazing game... just not for me.

So of anyone wants to buy a hardly used copy of X3... I'm yer man! lol.

Thanks to those who responded to the original post.

yes yes, i know that, but for some reason the search feature doesnt work, and its tedious looking through the pages for ever and ever.
