X4: Foundations is the latest title in the popular X series of space simulation / sandbox games, played as action games from a first-person perspective in a living breathing universe, with TRADE FIGHT BUILD THINK as the common tag-line. X4: Foundations is unique in its depth, simulating an entire universe of NPC ships and stations, forming a realistic economy. It consists of a huge universe, simulated from the bottom up. Hundreds of stations, and thousands of ships, trade goods among themselves. Prices change based on supply and demand; resources are mined and processed in several stages. This economy is linked directly to the simulation of major conflicts in a universe with dynamically-acting factions. Every player decision can dramatically change the future of the game universe. Step in and live your very own space adventure!

    The frigate is the first time I've had a ship with a docking bay, and the logistics of the ship having a breathable atmosphere on the outside while the ship is moving around in space is absolutely throwing me. Not to mention docking a ship on a ship on a station, orbbeing able to fit 40 ships in a ship... I ain't saying no to free stuff though!!

    As an X2 alum who bought X4 and all the DLC a few weeks ago, and am completely sucked in (and would kill for Boso Ta), I don't love the PHQ and in particular teleportation. Breaks the game a bit if you can ping across the galaxy in an instant with a pocket full of contraband

    Anybody wanting to play SCA and enjoy themselves, I strongly recommend editing your save file at the start of the game to unlock their reputation right at the beginning, Im doing unworthy entrepreneur and I joined SCA 20 min in. There's a reason why it's locked and its mostly for story missions and stuff cause HAT goes against SCA but just never join HAT and unlock the rep. I think it's an oversight by the devs. Rep should unlock the moment you join the guild. You'd face dire consequences if you killed you guildies but for the most part they don't attack my traders. obv terraforming unlocks the rep but thats way too late game to matter

    so this was pre-boron, right? something of interest is that the borons actually have only one engine type (that I know of), and it acts like a combat engine on smaller ships, with an instant spool up time. I don't know how the stats compare to the other races and if it works the same on the larger ships, but its interesting at least.

    While in game the tel turrets don't work that well their stats do fit with their theme. Since they are pretty much only strapping these onto merchant fleets the goal isn't to destroy the enemy but to buy enough time to get away. With a high range and high ROF they would achieve that

    The thing about letting them destroy your competition is yes you get to corner the market more, but you might also be letting them destroy your customers so you won't get as many sales. Probably not a big deal when money isn't a problem anymore and your whole production line is free, but if that's a concern it's better to just let your fleets clean them up periodically.

    Awesome vid. seems i have the knowledge to create whatever fleet i need now. Station destroyer fleet, max range. Fleet destroyer fleet, good combo of very fast weapons for smaller ships, and high damage weapons for larger ships. All around fleet - large ships designed for destroying stations, with lots of medium and small ships for dealing with the smaller stuff. making sure to leave behind your weaker ships when attacking high risk targets. Your videos are great, really concise and easy to understand.

    I havent messed eith this yet, but i had an old save from years ago which allowed me to start witt 133 Million. I dumped as much as i could into space fly eggs, then set up my space suit as well as craft items, no ship start. After i hitched a ride to Hatikvah's Choice 1 trade station, i used the trader craft table for caviar, emp, bombs, fine meals, first aid, SETA. Gave me about 500 million credits.

    I do feel like the Terran fighters should get a all round slight boost to their firepower rating, for the simple reason of the Terran high-energy weapons generally being the best in the game (Meson stream has one of the highest burst damage of all weapons in the game, actually superior to most destroyer main guns, and the proton barrage is imo the best anti-fighter weapon in the game bar none).
