you can own and command nearly everything else but you can not swap your ship. The fighting is much easier and more casual like compared to Elite.Īlso you will be restricted to only one Ship. The X Rebirth Universe (including all DLCs) is restricted to 9 Unique Systems (if i have counted correctly). Play the demo and test if XR is the game for you. Thanks in advance guys, I'm considering taking this sale to make the jump into X Rebirth but I decided it would be wiser to first probe the forums and get an idea of what to expect. Modern space sims in general have this problem from what I've seen, does X Rebirth do it better or is it rather more of the same in this matter?ģ) How is combat in X Rebirth? I found combat in E:D rather underwhelming (and somewhat repetitive), is combat in X Rebirth generally enjoyable? And is it rather fast-paced or slow-paced? Is this just my impression or is does the game effectively do it much better than E:D?Ģ) How is the gameplay variety in X Rebirth? In E:D you pretty much have 5/6 activities that you can do, people normally sticking to half of those because they're either the most profitable or less boring. Now from what I've seen of X Rebirth (screenshots etc.) I got the idea that the universe actually has personality and each part of it has its different look and feel. This for me is the ultimate dealbreaker in any space sim. Backgrounds and stars will look the same, stations will look the same and ships being sold will be the same. You can be in 2 different systems half a galaxy away and everything will look exactly the same in both. I would like to ask those who own X Rebirth whether the game would have what I'm looking for in these topics.ġ) The biggest one is that the entire universe looked the same. I own E:D with the DLC and while it kept me entertained for a couple hours I ended up getting bored pretty fast and giving up everytime I went back to it because of a couple of aspects in the game. Which X Rebirth is built around.Yes i know that one has a campaign and the other is an online sandbox so they aren't exactly comparable, but looking at both simply as space sims I would like to ask a few questions as the latest X Rebirth sale caught my eye.
#X rebirth vs elite dangerous Offline
You can hack stations and ships to get them to eject their cargo, shut down production lines, defenses, boarding is more fun then in X3:TC and AP.Īlso the one thing that keeps me from buying Elite Dangerous (or Star Citizen) is the lack of Single Player and offline focus. And while in the begining there was a limited number of build stops, one of the recent patches introduced the abilty to fly into empty space, spawn build points there, and rename the zone to your liking.įinally Piracy is way more enjoyable, with more options then any other X-Universe game. I also saw a discussion on the forums about how a station that you can add onto infinitely to create a closed loop production complex would work. With optional expansion paths, and multi-ware requirements and production. Station's are also naturally complexes without all the ugly tubes, and difficult set up. And fleet commands are regularly getting expanded on in patches.Īlso X Rebirth's engine is designed to be way more modable, removing some of the limitations of the old ones (I don't know specifics, I'm not a modder.) But while still leaving Capital Ships to be a challenge to take down until you get the hang of it. But the ship can be upgraded to be a extremely powerful and versatile ship. Obviously by the 300 other discussions only one ship is pilotably. Yes there are currently still a few bugs with highways, but capitals ships can now speed around the systems using a combination of jumpdrives and boosters. Then there is the pacing, X Rebirth tosses out the hack that was SETA and actually makes gameplay faster. Meanwhile X Rebirth lets you place orders and reserve goods, a far more realistic and enjoyable mechanic once you get the hang of it, also the Trading Computer that stores trade offers (when coupled with the built in Trade Agents) makes it really easy to find places to buy low and sell high.
Everything is first come first serve until you get a closed loop production complex. My biggest problem with previous X Titles is the trading mechanics.
