    07:23 Just FYI - the weird UI flickering here in this scene is caused by an incompatible mod that Fhiach was using while recording. /greg

    Great preview! I can't wait for a mod that makes that Split colony ship playable/usable, its beautiful. If they somehow made a way to make "mobile stations" like that usable or even buildable, I'd buy DLC just for that alone.

    Getting a hint of half life in the cold open. I know far out but still. Maybe a hint of no man sky to.... Also just to be clear we think the kind-sounding AI is totally EVIL RIGHT???? I mean it's a glowing meat hook got to be evil???

    比起线性--或者说关卡制--的时间线本身,我其实还是更在乎这之后的对于沙盒世界的影响。显然,在这四个任务中至少三个都是“在沙盒宇宙的某处创建一艘可获取的特殊遗弃船”,而这未免有些单调。我其实更加期待一些……就像是TER的生产模式,那种能够对整个沙盒宇宙带来巨大却可选择的影响的内容,比方说最终为玩家解锁Xenon部分舰船甚至空间站模块的生产权限:Xenon的舰船以高护甲低护盾的风格闻名,这种特性是为作为敌人而设计的:伤害很容易被积累为船体损坏,因此很容易在战斗中损失和被不同风格的单位击败。与之相反的则是Boron,这种高护盾的设计能够容易的避免不可逆的损伤,从而在快速脱离战斗以恢复后继续战斗。这种区别即使是对于AI操作的舰船同样是存在的,但7.0增加的Xenon捕获实际上完全没有考虑这种问题(至少在希望将之投入实际应用的玩家而言),捕获流程是手动操作的,即使是通过陆战队进行半自动捕获也并不容易,但与之相对的是高度易损耗的特性。
    我在Beta中游玩的存档里,其实很喜欢将Xenon F用作僚机:其相对突出的伤害和通用性较强的武器定位,使得该型战机拥有相当不错的战斗表现。然而对于中后期的存档而言,这种战机的获取方式比起简单的金钱支出或物资消耗而言又有些过于麻烦了。所以我其实非常希望时间线后续的任务中能够将这些Xenon设备的生产蓝图本身作为奖励,这在多方面都是合算的:对于玩家,这些几乎是收藏品性质的玩具变成了真正可用的装备,而且这将是第一批仅有玩家可以生产--至少在泛联合体视角下--的舰船,这将是有象征性意义的;对于制作组,这意味着可以将一个只需要很少工作量的内容(解锁蓝图并不困难,从目前版本可以击败H来获得特殊科研选项上看完全可行)用作一个大任务的奖励,而又使得玩家足够满意,与此同时,这又能诱使并不喜欢线性剧情/单元任务的沙盒模式玩家购买新DLC。

      @@Fhiach 其实类似的以关卡通关解锁特定沙盒内容的作品,先例是《Starsector》的Mod《Content Unlocking Missions》和其他一些添加了势力特有任务并进行了与沙盒本身之联动的Mod:这之中的主流同样是遗弃船的增加,但也有少数进行了更大的,以至于机制层面内容变化的情况。
      因为这种经验,我倾向于认为Ego完全有可能搞出并非仅有增加遗弃船的内容--不过到头来还是得看他成品如何。
      另一个角度上,我其实还对另一件事抱有疑惑:时间线奖励的遗弃船是否能够刷新在已建立的存档中?这些遗弃船奖励是一次性的吗?这些特殊的遗弃船是否会被AI势力提前获取?当然,因为时间线是独立模式,而并非在既有存档进行的过程中切入,“每当玩家重复一次时间线任务就增加一次遗弃船”这种情况大概不会发生。
      ……等等,这似乎也并非不可能,假设时间线会重置奖励到已经建立的存档中,那么完全有可能在玩家获取舰船后重新刷一条补上去--当然,这听起来就像是Bug而非设定,即使真的发生也完全可能被修复。

      it's mainly a collection of missions from previous x-games and as you can see in the bottom left, as you knock them out you get access to old ships/ship-models from the previous games which depending on which ships you can unlock can be cool, the argon in particular had far superior ship models than what they do now IMO that I would like to see back in the game.
