Wouldn't it be better in the long run to turn all of your frieghters, once they reach level 8, into Universe Traders? Or does that only allow them to trade from your stations to anywhere in the universe? I have the impression that they buy anywhere at a set price range and then sell at another set p...

http://argonopedia.ppcis.org/stations.php The above link is to a page that you can find information about the stations, such as what their output is and what they need to produce. For instance I noticed that one SPP requires 2 crystals per cycle with an output of 276 Energy Cells. The Crystal Fab re...

I just called EBgames and GameStop. They no longer carry it. So I am left with three more local choices basicly, then I will have to consider buying it online or taking a couple hour drive to the next big city. But for now I need to read some stories for english and worry about my Differential Equat...

That is so true on all points. The waiting 5 seconds for red light runners seems a little low, it should be wait half the green light.

From my readings a couple of players where able to double/triple/or more the size of their empire/company when they got one and had 5 or more transports with it. They also chose a TL that could carry more than one station with it so they could build them at once and then deploy transports to service...

From my understanding that area has a high demand for energy, so it should be possible to up the price. Also you could always buy the energy from other SPP and resell them at the marked up price, that way cornering the market by being the "middle man." I have been reading on the forums abo...

I just got home and checked the Walmart and Kmart. Walmart didn't carry it and Kmart didn't even have software, I even asked about it. It may be a couple of weeks before I go to the other side of town (a couple of miles) to check EBgames, GameStop, Office Depot, Office Max, Toysrus, Meijers, or the ...

Good to hear I was of some help. I read several pages in that thread before I finally posted it. They get rather deep into how to reap the most out of the economy and different methods of collecting that wealth. I have been watching the scoll demo for the game and enjoying what I see (still awe stru...

I have been reading posts about the economy in X2 and by the sounds of it try building a SPP in Red Light, a Wheat Farm in Hole, and a Crystal Fab in Heron's Nebula in that order and each should bring in a large profit if each is set to sell at max price. Reason why, Red Light lacks power suppliers,...

Ash: I kind of forgot about the Kmart just down the road from the Walmart I intend to check. The Nearest Bestbuy is over an hour drive away. We do have Office Max and Office Depot. I could also see if Toysrus has it. Gambit: As I understand it if you build a factory you will need at least two friegh...

How is your emiper developing? Looking over the boards at the X2source it looks like the start is hard but it quickly grows like an avalanch. They seem to agree that a ship called the Osprey makes the perfect secter patrol craft. Also they said that a Solar Power Plant (SPP) can provide enough power...

I took a quick look at their message board a saw a post talking about how bad carriers are. Appearently you have to manually launch every ship and the AI for the swarm target frieghters and low priority targets first instead of other military threats. One player lost almost a hundred fighters to a d...

I would mail-order but this is an unnessesary expense to me, and I have to watch my money carefully since I am a low wage college student. It is actually easy for me to drop by EBgames and Gamestop when I go out to the stores around here, or visit my mom at her work. I will take my time getting it, ...

Smart Crows, all they have to do is poke them just right and the frogs own defences does the rest. Free meals with little work.

I am liking it more and more. It sounds like Freelancer, which I enjoyed alot, but much larger and with more freedom of choices. If I see it for $10 the next time I stop by a store then I will get it. Last time I looked at Walmart they didn't have it, and there are no Best Buys, CompUSA's, Fry's, or...
