X4 Foundations

I am 300 hours in now. Still doing Paranid and Split story missions, and I have a billion in cash now.

I recently built a boarding fleet, which is fun. I already captured some pirate destroyers which I now use as patrol ships.

I also claimed Heretic’s End as my own sector, and I am building more and more stations.
So yeah, I am nearing the endgame I guess. Having a lot of fun, and still so much to do.

Holy moly that Split campaign is expensive.

Cost me around 1.5 billion. I had to save a bit of money and I am basically broke now. But it was fun!

Next up: get into the Avarice campaign and finish the expensive part of the Paranid one.

Also: Kill more Xenon and finally buy that carrier.

The feeling of having bought something expensive and just walking around it is just great.

Man, I wish that game had VR. Even in 2D it is stunning sometimes, those ships and stations are absolutely massive.

Meanwhile I am 350 hours in and expanding some more. I now own two sectors, 50 stations, two carriers, and two dozen destroyers. Next up is the rest of the Avarice story.

True. The Agamemnon looked very similar. I like it!

Yep think I have found my favourite capitol ship… I wouldn’t even care if the stats on it were terrible … when it has those looks :grinning:

7.0 and the new DLC have been released.

And so far I have to say WOW! The changelog is impressive and they fixed damn near everything that I regularly complained about.

The new faction leader offices are cool as well.

I cannot tell if the new DLC is really worth it (just played the intro) but Kingdom’s End is definitely fun and adds a lot to the game.

Yep. I almost cried when I heard the music. I instantly remembered the old game.

Urgh…how does that work

bog standard racing in space ships, a set course that you have to fly through checkpoints on … think wipeout from the old days

I kinda like the racing.

I don’t like the speed mining missions, though.

So far the missions have some cool stuff in it, and I think I will do them all, but I also think that the strengths of X4 are somewhere else.

Haven’t come across the mining missions yet sounds different :grinning:

I pulled the trigger on this off the Steam summer sale.

I am slightly hesitant to fire it up, as I want to keep focusing on the 737 and the Hind…but, Ooh, shiny!
