...and then, just at the climax of battle, a kraken warps in, swallows all fleets and burps: "You REALLY shouldn't be here!".

Both.

That makes for a long trip... I hope your co-pilot knows the doom song, otherwise it might get boring.
Humans are deuterostomes, which means that when they develop in the womb the first opening they develop is the anus.
This means that at one point you were nothing but an asshole.

Some people never develop beyond this stage.

:+1: thanks for testing it!
Imho it would be fun if you could eventually travel from one sector to another manually as well (even if the distances would be even bigger)
Nothing of real value gameplay wise, but "immersion", you know :D
Lore-wise two connected gates don't neccessarily have to be close to eachother. In X:Rebirth the sectors were placed all over the galaxy, with one gate warping you from one side of the milky way to the other side.
So to stay true with the lore, if flying from one sector to another without using a gate should be possible Egosoft would have to model the entire galaxy or, if gates connect between galaxies, the entire universe.

Yeah, in Rebirth it was possible to manually travel in-system, foregoing the super-highways (but I don't think it was possible to fly between gates, and even if it were, would probably take forever). Be cool if it was possible in X4 too. But only if they made sector display permanently adjustable :D
No, it was not possible in X:Rebirth to avoid the super-highways. The super-highway exits in X:Rebirth are essentially the trigger to load the zone/sector you arrived at.
I've tried it in X:Rebirth : I flew in Devries manually without the superhighway from Barren Heat to Glaring Truth and while the map indicated that i was at the correct position AND the surrounding planets and the sun looked like as if i was in GlaringTruth i couldn't see any stations or ships.

I haven't tried it in X4 yet, but i imagine it would be a similar result.

Really? Hmm... I remember reading it was. Or maybe it was a mod?.. Thanks for correction.

Yeah, it is. As I posted above, I tested in Great Exchange, no dice.
