I Played 100 Hours of X4: Foundations... Here's What Happened!
Ойындар
I played 100 hours of X4: Foundations, and survived in a universe full of deadly Xenon, marauding Kha'ak aliens and many factions vying for control of rich markets! Here's how that went..

It's normal for a first run. And before watching the video, I really thought it will be a mess, I didn't know Koko at all. But he seems to really know how to play and how growing his empire. 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
9 ай бұрын
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 feel this game is overlooked a lot. i know i did because of the name, and the look of the map. looked like turn based game... not bad but i had my fill of those and wanted free roam. finally seen a non edited playtrhough of the game seen it was actually everything i wanted in game. 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.

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 ;-))...

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.

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.
Holy crap that's a great video! How long did it take to edit?? I also always have my own ideas of "peace and freedom" throughout the galaxy. ^^ Also hearing someone mention Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" is rare nowadays. I can't play X4 at the moment though ... there's so much else to do. Tons of hardware reviews.

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.

Making 1 year since i´ve bought this and found funny how the best role is universe protector if you want to avoid an non realistic full universe control and keep all factions alive and the market running you just have to settle defense stations and Capitol Ships in every Xenon point of access to Civilized Races, this was you can avoid looking to the map a seeing random faction structures being destroyed, on my first play Xenon annihilated Argon Federation while i was taking care of my life 😅 You can use this as a starting business because you´ll have a lot of part ships being dropped plus items with high value that you can sell i remember that my first 10,000,000,000 where made essentially on this

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.

Using the laser towers works well and I have used that strategy many times against Xenon small class ships especially in Hatikvahs Choice were they seem to attack in HUGE swarms.

This was my first time using them and I was surprised how well they worked.
I am actually blown the heck away that you didn't have any issues with the AI on your trade ships going bananas trying to figure out what you want them to do. And also the station managers having issues fulfilling your requests.

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. :)

Fantastic video. I reqlly enjoy how this is condensed and narrated clearly to give a real sense of what the gameplay is like. I was searching to find two answers here: is the gameplay more exciting and faster paced than elite D? Heck yes. Is this game worth the current steam dale price? Heck yes. This looks amazing! It's not even fair to compare this to elite D, because Elite D is more like a science project first with some gaming elements. This is more like focused on what the best space game could be like. Tons of depth and fun to be had. Are you going to do another video of the next 100 hours?
O so i bought this game, thanks to you and other few videos. O boy what a great game, i sux at making economy, coz i do nothing, just flying around and watching. I managed to liberate Asgard ftom Terans, it was flying around with 80 crew, so i set werry hard board acttion and after like an hour it was mine.

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.
I enjoyed watching you masterfully baiting that eye. It gave me so much pleasure.

Really good video, I'm curious to know how much your empire worth after 100 hours. And at the end, you said you like your destroyer spread in circle. Men, you need to try a Split Raptor, you put 121 fighters in it, and set it to 'bomber'. They gonna go out and attack any X,XL ships under 30 km. Do that, Vs a Xenon K or I, the 121 fighters do a really really big circle arround the ennemy ship and just charge it, it's beautiful ;P

X-4 is an awesome game, thanks for the video - it was nice to see that some people still know the meaning of the word 'piracy', in that the goal is high stake theft while causing the least damages that could harm one's future piracy. In Star Citizen, piracy now means 'psychopathic mass murderer', where killing is the sport and the loot doesn't matter.

Agreed on the video! Eh to the piracy in SC.. its hard to find PvP even if you actively look for it, you gotta be at JT and Brios and sometimes you have to wait for hours. Every bounty also runs to Grim hex to hide and server hop :/ in 8 years of playing SC i have never been attacked on a peaceful trade run, only maybe 7 times while running illegal goods (what you're thinking of was the Pyro Playtest where this murder hobo nonsense started, this is what happens when you deprive players of good PvP content for years lol)

@hellgeist_ i'm pretty high end on the PvP side of things. Meta consists currently of just corkscrews and tricording. You do these 2 things with the current system and you become unhittable over 500m away from whoever you're fighting. Even in AUS servers it's not that bad. You only ever get ganked if you run illegal goods; if you do only PvE content, the chances of running into PvP is next to none; Star Citizen needs *more* pvp orientated gameplay, not less (My take as someone who both equally engages in higher end PvP content and PvE content over the course of about 8 years) But we shall have to wait to see how pyro goes and all the reputation systems coming into play. Me and my buddies legally Pirate in SC (we pirate the pirates and drug haulers and take their stuff for ourselves) because honestly.. fighting people who don't fight back is boring And again.. 9/10 times player bounties just camp out in GH and server hop *your average SC player is also a very bad pilot, the skill gap between your average (90% players) and good (top 10%) is so massive that if you learn those couple tricks i talked about above you are basically a pro player ** this is the games fault though as these more advanced techniques are not taught by the game

@hellgeist_ I think you misread my reply; I'm not supporting the current meta nor an arrow 1v1 a fully manned hammerhead lol; I'm stating that PvP needs to be fixed because as it stands what little PVP there is outside stuff like jumptown is lackluster And my 8 year comment was no flex, thats just a note of my level of experience with the game as an active player for (most) of that time I *want* more of a challenge in PvP, I don't *want* to not fear a fully crewed hammerhead; because right now, when I see a fully trained org in a hammerhead I see a big ol piñata with no ability to hit me whatsoever if I corkscrew due to the aim assist being easy to throw off. I fear a gladius/arrow/blade with a sweaty player 100x more than I fear most multicrew ships. Also the meta won't be multi-crew big ships in well trained Orgs, the meta will be every ship has its own place (hopefully atleast) My og point was that murderhoboing isn't rampant, and it was only so in the Pyro playtest and maybe 2+ years ago, now it's a really rare sight **and my last comment about the player skill curve is not meant with any sort of disrespect, as I said, the game doesn't teach you what maneuvers are good, or what trichording even is
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?
Bro i was happily watching the video and 42:40 jumpscare bruh... xD
