If this was X2 then it wouldn't be as bad as they could dock an M5, but not in X3. Second off, in an M6 you are greatly restricted to where you can dock and do trade. The IRE's are good in mass but not against anything bigger than an M3. Let alone only have 1MJ shield which is the equivalent of tissue paper. With enough money and a good relationship you can buy and deploy factories to suit your needs.Ĭan't believe your ditching an M5 for an M6 so early, especially for one so slow. Generally you'll find a "store" every few sectors and they're more concentrated around the capitols of each empire. There are a couple other types of bases that will also sell you stuff, but most bases are factories. Profit! There are ways to "encourage" the pilot to bail.Ī factory will only sell you its product. Profit! Sometimes your target will jump ship and then you can capture it. That means you get a bounty when you kill an enemy. In fact, if you do this a little bit, consistently, you will soon be able to buy a police license. Pirates are everyone's enemy (except other pirates) so if you're looking for someone to pick on, that's an option.
Factories will pay more for a supply as they run low, and charge less for a product as they get full.Įmpires will like you if you kill their enemies (who are in their territory) and don't shoot at their friends. You can buy it below 10 and sell for up to 20 credits per unit, if you're careful.
There are several supply chains in each race's area, usually just the same stuff with different names. I'm still absolutely clueless, but having fun.Įasiest (and slowest) way to make money is by trading. So, trying this game out for the 4th or 5th time and I'm actually having fun this time. I tried to buy a 125MJ shield, but it seems these Argon folks don't like me enough to sell me one. As things stand I have: 1 brand new cheat-M6 Centaur (that I'll either name Chiron or Bob) that is armed with 6 alpha impulse ray emitters (or w/e the Buster starts with), 3 beta IREs, and a 1MJ shield.
#X3 REUNION CENTAUR MK1 HOW TO#
This is the farthest I've ever gotten into this game and tomorrow I intend to figure out how to make some money. is there some kind of safety so I don't accidentally go shooting something bigger than me? I had about 2 hours invested and never got to shoot anybody! Though I did accidentally loose a volley into the vastness of space. Now I have a somewhat armed and very lightly armored M6 that can hit 104m/s! Only now do I realize how slow 104m/s feels in this game.īefore I ran out of time for the night, I spent about 10 minutes exploring one of the neighboring sectors but had to return home to save. Then I bought speed and maneuverability upgrades. I put the beta guns in my turrets and the alphas in the forward array/battery/place. (I don't remember what it's called.) There I bought 3 of the beta version of whatever the Buster had and a few missiles. and then accidentally sold my Buster.ĭown to one big, slow ship, I flew to some sort of supply depot thing. Once in the shipyard (after several failed attempts) I eventually figured out how to transfer my weapons & shields from my Buster to the Centaur. So after some 15-20 minutes of flipping between guides & the game I managed to tell my Buster to dock at the Shipyard in Argon Prime. but I hadn't the slightest clue how to get them from one ship to the other. there's more! I had no guns & no shields! I realized that my Buster had guns & shields. A top speed of a whopping 52m/s! Booo!!! Hissss! But wait. only to find out that it drives like a truck.
I bail out of my starter Buster & hop into my shiny new Centaur. So I decide to take my new toy out for a spin. I figured out real quick how to give myself credits, but that didn't seem so fun. I've never been able to get into this game before, so this time I started off cheating. To keep up the trend of me not accomplishing anything, I decided to give my copy of X3:R a try.
