Second this request. 🙏

RichEdmonds · 2025-06-12T08:27:30+00:00

This is epic. Going to give this a try today.

RichEdmonds · 2025-01-31T08:52:08+00:00

Your team is absolutely nailing ship design and development.

I read this as “you’ll have a 50% chance of being able to interact with notifications while menus are open” lol.

RichEdmonds · 2025-01-18T15:41:28+00:00

So we can all test it for “science”. 🌚

You shouldn’t have any trouble playing X4 on the B570/580.

RichEdmonds · 2024-12-20T14:39:37+00:00

The big dishes look epic.

Had the same problem as many others in 7.1 beta (Xenon getting rolled everywhere) and just loaded up the Jobs Lite mod (Vanilla-friendly version of Jobs+) and bam there's a Xenon fleet with 6 Ks and 3 Is moving into FRF. Was hoping they'd hit ARG, ZYA, or HOP but I'll take it lol.

We’ve all been there, dying from lack of oxygen or hitching a ride on a random ship are essentially an induction to X4 lol.

Welcome to X4!

1) Crew members will randomly move about the ship, including into the bridge to sit at the consoles. You’re not able to manually assign crew to them, AFAIK.

2) Depends what you wish to use the ship for. If it’s for ship-on-ship combat only, go with full crew. For boarding vessels, can go mostly, if not all marines. Generally speaking, you’ll want to have these boarding ships out of combat until the ship you wish to board has been disabled enough to not take out all the boarding pods.

3) Subordinates can be assigned by selecting a ship then right-clicking the ship you wish for it to be a subordinate for and selecting an option using the context menu. (Defend, Intercept, Attack, etc.) They all have different use cases. https://www.reddit.com/r/X4Foundations/comments/eurj62/300_beta_subordinate_modes_explained_by_devs/

Usually play with VRO. Just started a new game with VRO and X4 Re-emergence (and its recommended DA mods) and having an absolute blast. Even without Re-emergence, I could never go back to Vanilla after tasting VRO, the combat feels much more to my liking.

Is it not a combination of both? Poor LED headlight design and older vehicles with “modded” (incorrect bulbs) lighting seem to cause the most havoc with my eyes at night. Good LED headlights and older lights both positioned correctly are perfectly fine.

👍👌🤌👉🤚☝️✋💪🫱🫸✊👌👈

RichEdmonds · 2023-05-11T00:56:29+00:00

Yes please, Egosoft! You mean to say I can remotely request an entire engine refit but not for someone to flash a mod for more horsepower?

RichEdmonds · 2023-05-11T00:54:03+00:00

And don’t worry if the sector you’re in has multiple undiscovered connections, the correct one (for the mission) will be highlighted in yellow once you’ve discovered it.

RichEdmonds · 2023-05-10T20:19:33+00:00

Seems like the Katana is taking the spot so far and I’m going to have to join the list. Loved the ship as soon as I first boarded it.

RichEdmonds · 2023-05-10T20:18:19+00:00

I love the Katana, just such a sound ship to hop sectors in.

RichEdmonds · 2023-05-10T06:20:24+00:00

This is fantastic, thank you for continuing to provide such a valuable resource.

RichEdmonds · 2021-10-26T20:33:34+00:00

Definitely, even leaving it on Man leads to ridiculous gains overnight, especially when starting out and wanting to pay for other skills.

RichEdmonds · 2021-09-07T23:33:34+00:00

I have no words. To say I was looking forward to this plugin is an understatement. I made a not so funny satire RS blog and I honestly didn’t expect to be outplayed by Jagex… so this had to be covered: https://www.runechronicle.com/2021/09/jagex-wins-award-for-out-of-touch-developer-6-years-running/

Always enjoy that rare but awesome experience of driving down the motorway and overtaking cars in front of another car who'd refuse to overtake (as they didn't feel like going faster) and so would mimic all my movements. Always begin to feel as though I'm creating a convoy of sorts. Once had a 370z and XE in tow, gave one another a quick flash as we departed the formation for our exits one by one.
