      The problems with just dogfighting is the Xenon eliminating the Split, then breaking out into Teladi areas, crippling the galactic economy. And if you are super unlucky like me, a stray I will enter Antigone Memorial. The galaxy needs saving and you are the only chance it has.

And it's a good thing for him, because longer you let the Xenon do what they want and stronger they will be. I really put my empire on a other level when I realize the Xenon snowball everything lol. At first I was like, bah it's just the split I don't care. My goal was to destroy the Terran and be THE terran ;). But my plan change because if the Xenon destroy the split, they will be a lot stronger and just snowball the rest of the galaxy. So I spend billions to stop them and take back all the sectors. Most of them are now under my protection.

    Tip for Argon rep, set up miners in the massive asteriod sector next to argon prime, (usually to thr top left) , And set their mine and sell to that sector only. This means your miners mine, and sell ores to argon, which means you trade, and it means passive rep and money. I always use this trick. It wont get you all the way there but it can make the early grind quick

    In my current playthrough the Xenon have been super aggressive. My first trip through Argon Prime found a pair of K Destroyers sweeping through the system with no resistance, the Argon had to completely rebuild their wharf and shipyard, still really sparse there. There is near constant fighting in Hatikvahs Choice, the Xenon are regularly attempting to build stations there. My mining and trade ships are all in Boron, Segaris, and Antigone Republic space. Only recently built up enough cash to start buying Destroyers. I had to kill a K that came into Heretic's End from Wretched Skies, in my at the time lone Boron Ray.

      In a recent Run i learned that Boron defense stations are amazing to fend off the Xenon in lynchpin sectors. 11 Defense modules with the large pule net launchers and medium pulse guns kill pretty much anything (although i have not seen a Xenon I in that run). I build them in Hatikvahs choice, the Void and was working on the split that just get pummeled in every run i do, poor sods. Interesing tidbit: once the Void and Hatikvah were secure the Argon really ramped up and started being agressive towards everyone :D

      AI often needs help against Xenon, they can be quite bad at dealing with them

    • @Matrix2Strata017
      @Matrix2Strata017 Před 10 měsíci +1

      Main problem is AI fleets are naturally small and they typically fly off their territories to patrol sectors they don't really need to. Xenon forcibly have larger fleets as they have to distribute their forces from 4-5 points against all factions. Against the combined power of all factions, Xenon are weaker. If Xenon actually focus a large force at one sector one faction at a time, like Hatikvah's Choice, they can win the sector. Argon, by itself can't hold Hatikvah's Choice or Morning Star, it's fleet size is small and they are always spread out and can fail to respond to an all out Xenon attack, as in, they won't pull their fleets back to stop them, instead they continue to let their fleets wander aimlessly while they get trampled. This forces player intervention. It's better to build ships instead of buying, you can start easy cashflow from a hull parts factory, cheap and easy and low maintenance. One of the Argon missions teaches you this.

    I've been playing Starfield for the last few weeks. But all it's been doing is rekindling my desire to play X4 again. Which I've not played since early 2022. _My bad!_
    Starfield's OK. _But it's no X4!_
    _Name me another space game where you can;_
    1 - Go into 3rd person mode.
    2 - Ask your "M" class ship to dock on your "XL" ship.
    3 - Meanwhile, you're in your "S" class ship and telling your pilot of that "S" class ship, to dock on the "M" class ship that's going to dock on the "XL" ship.
    4 - So with orders placed, I'll sit back and watch the action unfold 8-))...
    It's my _"thing"_ I do in X4.
    It's good fun to do. Watching your "S" class land on the "M" class then, while still on the "S" class, that's now on the "M" class, watching that "M" class land on the "XL" class.
    Everyone should try to do it. At least once while playing X4 ;-))...

    after playing it i learned it was even more then i thought. so few things u cant do in this game. it truly is amazing in most aspects.
    imo the only thing i hated were the missions. so clunky and hard to figure out what exactly they wanted me to do and or where to go. real pain in the butt to do. hated the missions........ luckily u dont have to do many to unlock most of the game. but yea.

    As someone with about 500 hours in X4 (and another 1500-ish in the older titles), it's always great to see more people get sucked in. It's one of the only franchises where you start with practically nothing, but by the end you can have a fully self-sufficient empire, with multiple giant shipyards churning out battleships for your war with the game's major factions.
    For anyone willing to forgive the game's flaws and find their own blend of fun within its sandbox, there's almost no other experience like it.

    150 hours in on my recent play through and I'm wrestling a ex-split system off the xenon for over half of the play through. Got the basic recycling & construction parts station up and running and the next station going up will be the turret components station so I can kick back a little rather than having to micro my fleets or watch the map all the time. Shield station is next on the list so I can build real gate defence stations that can kill xenon Is and for me to finally relax.
    Still going to be a while before I can let the game run itself and for me to relax enough to go playing the missions.

      I feel like if you're not actively helping out the AI against Xenon, they'll have a hard time surviving, but once you manage to contain their spread (this is where all those laser turrets worked surprisingly well for me), the AI's economy will boom and you'll be able to start to relax.

    • @Matrix2Strata017
      @Matrix2Strata017 Před 10 měsíci +2

      It actually helps trade routing instead of a huge megastation. Imagine shopping at the grocery store, but you only pick up 1 item at a time, instead of multiple items at once, that's the basic of X trading. That clogs the traders at docks especially the L class, M/S are not cost effective and helpless against attackers. Also the station designer can be overloaded by too many modules, this is why mods exist to help by increasing production yields, same with cargo capacity. Trade stations are a bit different, you make this if you want a centralized depot to trade out of, and not actually make it closed loop, but you can if your PC and station designer can handle it, as well as making adequate L docks. This is also the same for Shipyards, you shouldn't make it closed loop, but you can. On top of the listed problems, they also can't truly sustain themselves because sometimes they won't trade in or trade out supplies, requiring upstream factories.

    Set your wharf prices to 150%; everyone still buys your ships and you make a fat profit.
    As for your own M ships, I recommend using the Split Boa. It has a small cargo capacity, but it's by far the fastest trade ship, meaning higher throughput and the ability to escape from pirates. The best M miners are, again, Split; the Alligators go so ridiculously fast that you'll rarely if ever lose any of them. The only drawback with Split is that the game seems to not have a good queue system for multiple ships wanting the same dock, so you'll need that 8m docking port at your factories, possibly more with a megafactory.

    A valuable tip for Defense Stations: build them in Closed Loop, this requires that you use Argon modules only, but reduces the material to Hullparts, Energy Cells and Claytronics.
    Now given the rarity of Claytronics, it´s still easier to get than the excessively rare Turret Components (unless you build them yourself...).
    However i have by now build several minimalistic Defense Stations that allow me to keep Xenon Incursions in check thanks to Closed Loop.
    Only Terran Construction is this efficient and simple! But much more expensive.

    I played the first X game 20 years ago, thought I would give x4 a try, but I am totally overwhelmed, so complicated. I bought the Boron DLC because I wanted to try and use your video as a guide. It took me 9 hours to find out that I had to discover the missing gate connection in Watchful Gaze. So stupid, I swear the mission did not state that. Being totally new to X4 I have spent 20 hours playing and have pretty much the same amount of money and the starting ship. All that said, this video made me buy the X4 in the first place so I am going to learn how to play this game. :)

    I really wanted to get into this game. So i forced myself to climb its incredibly steep learning curve and i honestly was not disappointed. I dont have a hundred hours yet... But I feel like i can share some of my experiences. At first i just played it like i would say freelancer or star citizen, one man, one ship... But quickly learned that this game's difficulty ramps incredibly fast when it comes to combat missions. You either complete them easily or are stomped into a fine powder in seconds. It was clear that I was missing something. So i went to youtube for guidance and discovered the true breadth of this game....
    Its like a ridiculously overly detailed capitalism simulator was masquerading as a space sim... Or maybe the other way around... Im not sure. This thing goes so deep that im still learning systems 60 hours in.
    In the beginning I was agast at the absolutely garbage tier voice acting and dialogue but honestly i get why now... That's just window dressing on the absolutely insane depth you can go in with this game if you have the patience. It's like seeing a puddle on the street and thinking its a pretty disappointing looking puddle, Only to sink neck deep into it when you take a step.
    It's not all good... When you get deep enough in you basically spend most of your time with the game in the map or in menus. You can of course venture out into the universe and do things yourself... But honestly you have so much work to do in those menus that it's probably more profitable to be managing your empire than to be taking an active roll in the dirty work of actually fighting or mining or whatever. So the part of the game that maybe drew you in in the first place may become more like a guilty pleasure as you expand. This is going to turn some people off of this game the minute they realize this fact.
    I sort of understand now why this game isn't all that popular. It appeals to an audience of the most hardcore autists that will spend 30 hours just learning how to set up a very complicated money making machine in a fictional universe. Fortunately for me, i live for this shit.

    This looks superb fun. Loved the x franchise from when I first played x2. Kinda upset that after XR VR that x4 wasnt seen as finaancially viable to have some form of vr support. Space sims are insanely good in vr. Judt suprised theres not a supply and demand for this sort of thing. Sad if the numbers don't support doing ut yet. Maybe psvr2 and future next quest release might influence things differnet economically. As having played xr vr, elite dangerous and NMS I can say theres definitely the potential for an epic X VR game I get you want a market to put I out to though. Hopefully one day they'll be a rando mod for for a vr x4 it maybe, suprised theres not! Also XR vr wasn't exactly the normal X experience, I wonder with another dip into the area with x4, it would have a differnet repection now? Extremely tempted to play on a flat screen, and always tempted to reinstall xr vr but I don't think it's supported anymore. Was there a modding scene for xr vr at all?
