I thought the same thing re: cell shading/borderlands. Let's hope it's not too exaggerated. trackIr does work well in X Albion Prelude so I'd imagine it will work in Rebirth though I haven't seen any cockpit panning in the videos, except for when looking over at the copilot.

Just read that there is no changing ships at all. Anyone know why this has been taken out?

Well there's no need but it is immersion killing without it. Once you go track IR, you can't go back. I'd have to disagree... maybe I'll miss it when I start doing more combat, but I've tried it and not really felt it was game-changing. Still, most "cockpits" I've been in weren't really much to speak of... Just read that there is no changing ships at all. Anyone know why this has been taken out? Where'd you read this?

Going the modular route, eh? It was kind of fun in Darkstar One, but an odd choice for this.

Just read that there is no changing ships at all. Anyone know why this has been taken out? Where'd you read this? http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=301925With the latest news, we now know that the game, will be limited to a single flyable ship. So like we feared, there wont be any flyable capital ship in this game. It's an old thread though but not finding anything to say it's not the case.

Hmmm... that's dated 2011-2012... I wonder if they kept it so. If they do, it's a crap decision. One thing about changing ships is being able to fly a fast-but-weak fighter or a slow-but-tough corvette. I've not piloted capital ships yet, but would love to. Or sometimes I just want to do my own trade runs.

There's only this ship to fly, which makes sense to me. Hyperion is one of the best choices in X3, so they can't go wrong with this type of ship. Better than a fighter, but more nimble than a capital. One thing that would make it better is a dockable fighter. They could make more ships in the future, though. You can still command your fleets, but in a more RTS way. http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=341940

Guys, read some of the FAQ on the egosoft site...they are gonna allow the player to do a lot of different stuff, including via the use of drones. It's not going to be limited to one ship with a narrow set of characteristics.

Why has the discount gone now? It's at full price of £40.
I'll wait until it comes out as I'm not paying £40 for a PC game I don't what it's like.

I am getting an I-War 2 vibe from this game. I just bought X3 TC and AP off of Steam 2 weeks ago and like it, haven't preordered though since I still don't see enough about the game to make a decision.
One day the West will fall. But if the Liberty for which we fight is taken up by the world then the West will not have failed.

One look at that video is enough for me.

I would like to see more.
I am glad cockpits are back in, and I want to know hoy dynamic the stations first person bit is. Or is it just a placeholder with no real effect in game.
What can you interact with on your ship? When you dock are you magically transported to the "bar" in the station and that is the only bit you can move around?
Looking forward to it as I am a long time x universe supporter, but I am now looking for a bit more out of it.

Nice demo! I'm pretty excited this one will be more playable with the 360 controller. Looking forward to kicking back with this one, I hope the type can be read from further away. Dogfighting looks a little more doable with controller than before, I hope that's the case. It was hard not to run the mouse for that before.

Wow really liked that demo vid! This looks amazing, and so much simpler than all the menus in X:Rebirth/TC, day 1 buy for me.
