What is Reddit's opinion of X?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

here are the changes done already (scroll down to news) https://www.egosoft.com/games/x4/info_en.php

i’m just waiting for them to take the beta changes and add them to the full version, but anyone is free to play beta right now if you want.

I like the single player better too, or at least prefer more co-op multiplayer and have little interest in PvP multiplayer. But that's kind of the problem with Elite, it's trying to cater to every playstyle and none of them are really ever going to be perfect because it's hard to please everyone. I guess that's why the X-series is so good if you're really into the single player stuff.

By the way, Egosoft just recently announced X4: Foundations which apparently is going back to its roots where you can build an empire and control an entire fleet. Looks promising.

I haven't followed it all super closely. I do know they're trying to revamp the map so that you can actually order your ships around from it which makes it sound like they're thinking of it more in terms of a strategy game which I think is great.

From their page for it:

>Factions build and expand stations dynamically and REACT TO THE ECONOMY and military threats.

>Trade with a single ship or MANAGE an empire that competes with entire civilisations. A FULLY SIMULATED AND DYNAMIC ECONOMY reacts to changes on every level.

>SANDBOX GAMESTARTS Start X4 from a variety of angles. REPRESENT DIFFERENT FACTIONS with different ships and technologies. Every start offers a new view at the universe, but all allow you to UNLOCK EVERYTHING.

It's a lot of promises. I don't know if it's that I didn't follow the dev process for prior games, but it feels like they're actually paying attention and communicating with their community this time.

Going through the profile of anybody who upsets you, and trying to weaponise their hobbies, is proper nonce behaviour, as well as being against the ruiles.

The egosoft games of course! If you want "hand holding" go with X: Rebirth and wow yourself w/ the graphics. If you want the full on space sim experience, go back and pick up the X3 games. https://www.egosoft.com/games/x4/info_en.php and more.
