Just started playing X4. Any tips for beginners? I'm using a controller for flight (still figuring out a better button layout) and KB+M for everything else, should I do story modes before a "normal" playtrough?
Beat Frost Walrus first.
>>729030223Play the story missions alongside your own sandbox play. They'll ramp up in such a way that you'll quickly need a cargo hauler to progress at a reasonable pace. So best to combine it with your natural progress in the sandbox.Upgrade your ship to a katana which you can buy from the terrans. It's a pretty good allrounder.
>>729030223What sort of game is X4? if I've understood it correctly it's a sort of space sim/ strategy game? I like Elite Dangerous for example, I've played it on and off every now and again, strategy games on the other hand I've never even tried. Is this game easy to learn? I'd have just enough eurodollars left in my steam wallet to buy it.
>>729030263You mean Magma Dragoon with the rider armor
>>729030223No way is this butt from x4
>>729031129It's space autism. You fly a single ship. Mine, trade, bounty hunt and steal your way towards progress. Then you upgrade your ship to be better. Then you buy a couple more ships and start a trading route. You expand to several other sectors and start dealing in multiple trade goods. Then you construct your own space stations and start several production chain lines. Then you make enough money to build your own fleets. You compete with other races either through trade or warfare. Eventually you become the master of the galaxy and quit out of boredom, or start a new playthrough.>Is this game easy to learn?Far from it.
I always put dash on R1.
>>729031129its four game types running as one and takes months to fully understand how to play.if you have the autism level required to master it its the best Space sim on the PC
>>729030223what butt is this from?
>>729030223if you want to get rich quick, focus on trading and getting that automated while you protect your precious caro ships. that alone is a game in itself
>>729031242it is, latest X4 updates have hot space suits. my entire crew are sexy babes who i hired after scouring the galaxy for the hottest thots
>>729030223more fat space ass
>>729032060My dick got in front of my brain. I meant what game is this butt from
>>729032212Is any of the dlc required?
>>729032451cradle of humanity is nice to have since it adds a lot of sectors and an alternative economy and production chains. split vendetta is pretty good as well. kingdom's end leaned heavily into nostalgia for boronsenvoy and hyperion packs, timelines and tides of avarice aren't too important
>>729032451yes, the one that introduces the Terrans
>>729032451The ones that add the missing races like Terrans.
