I never believe what Critic sites say.

 

Personally I like the game.

 

Not to mention X3 had the same bad start and see how that turned out.

 

Not as bad as this. Funny thing is that user score and "critic" score are same ;)

Actually yes it was. When Reunion first came out it was in the same state as Rebirth is now.

 

If you meaning that it was utterly broken then yes, but if take in mind that Rebirht is broken in concept then I wasn't. Rerbirth is fail arcade game that pretending be a space sim game. Adding to that missing features, it is just rubbish.

I think I skip this one. Although it looks very impresive, beside of the NPCs and station interiors which look more like from Doom 3, I think all the flaws in the conception of the game and control elements make it quite hard to play as far as I saw it in videos. And that are things that can't be patched like to countless bugs.

 

But the main reason why it lost it appeal to me is that you can now only pilot one small ship. The main motivation for me in all the other X games was always to buy and pilot constantly bigger ships and end with something like carriers or destroyers. When I want to order mostly A.I. controlled ships I can play something like Sins of Solar Empire.

A comment from the developers 

 

 

 

:D  :angry:

 

(I still have faith it will eventually be a good game... but by the time it is.. it will probably be priced reduced.  Making it quite a sad story for early adopters  :( )

screen caps wont help much  space is beautiful!  the game looks good.. but plays bad.  The stations look awesome..Theres plenty of youtube vids though if you want to see it.   It's probably one of the best LOOKING space exploration games I've played.

 

This one is kind of a rant review 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This guy REALLY rants

 

 

 

 

 

Gameplay without negative commentary

Man those rants where terrible. Thanks for pointing them out. But i have been part of the x-series since the beginning. from beyond the frontier till x3 And Egosoft was not known for their single player campaign like X2 :D only open space. Modders did the rest. I am sure many mods will fix this game like they did with all other Egosoft games. That is why they released their full tools.

That wasn't an excuse,but a fact. unlike bethesda, Egosoft has a dev where regular players can help with both beta testing and patch fixing. All Egosoft games where all later fixed by Egosoft.

 

Bethesda games hell i am still waiting for a patch that fixes the damn oblivion engine..

 

Egosoft has really small team not like Bethesda and EA where they have a full dev team working on the game and only releasing crappy engine that crashes more then you are playing.

It will be a fun game if you do not compare it with the X series.  Just think of it as a completely different game.

And do not buy it until it is price reduced.. by then they should have some good mods out and major bugs ironed out.

 

The eye candy is there.. it just needs to be given some life.

But here Egosoft did not make use of that community during development. They developed their game very secluded, with releasing no preview versions for critics or do an eraly access on steam to compensate for their lack of money to do an extensive beta test. If they had developed their game more open I think people had warned them about bag game design decissions they made in X-rebirth. And it is always good to get opinoins about your work from peoples who have more distance to it than your self.

All in all it won't matter at this point if they fixed everything that is wrong with the game. I'm sure you are aware that word of mouth in the gaming world goes a LOOOOOOOOONG way and with everyone saying the game is crap don't bother buying the thing they will never be able to salvage it.

Well there was a 16MB patch which addressed a load of bugs. On the forums for Rebirth it states that over 130+ bugs to do with trading were fixed, hence why the patch was delayed.

 

You may need to start a new game though for changes to take effect.

 

• Fixed several causes of crashes in-game and when loading savegames. 

• Fixed a specific problem resulting in periodic slow-downs. 
• Improved general performance (first small improvement only, more to come). 
• Fixed several problems resulting in trade ships getting stuck. 
• Fixed several problems with ship/drone docking/undocking behaviour. 
• Fixed problem with player drone formations. 
• Fixed several small localisation issues. 
• Improved skill levels for new NPCs. 
• Improved readability of entries in interaction menus. 
• Improved GPU listing on laptops with multiple GPUs (still some driver-related issues on certain hardware).
  • 3 months later...

Id there a walktrue for this ?? or what sector do i need to travel to find this captain ?? i currently play this game with 1.25 fix 1 witch steam updated to today.

 

Also how do i buy smaller ships ??

 

 

 

After being a die hard fan of this genre i really need to get into this one. The controls are fully changed.

Maybe they can address the fact that you only have one ship in the entire game. Who thinks of this shit? You go from having dozens of ships to use to...one. Really? Glad I didn't buy this tanker.
