Kock invasions
Ok so I finished the storyline a while ago, and im kinda well, directionless and having a hard time getting the factorys i build to make more than a trickle of income, after more than a week of playing with various facilitys not one has paid for itself .
So im kinda pissed off bored and dont know what to do, I want more story missions.
but that wont happen.
so do the kock still show up in random sectors ? i havnt seen any since i finished the storyline .
space feels boring and empty when it isnt full of kock.
oh but i did cap a kock interceptor with laser intact, kinda useless but a nice trinket anyways.

Ah, fyi it's spelt Kha'ak.
Q) What do you call an unimpressed Kha'ak scout?
A) A bemusa triangle!
Bazza's better PPC mod! - Makes flying a capital ship much more... satisfying.
Mergelsberg's Transport Drone & my own version. -M3 freighter for TL ships.

nah scripts and mods if not officially suported wont go anywhere near my system, A cause i dont rust them B cause i feel like im cheating and C feel like im moving away from the intended purpose of the game.
I wouldnt be bored if i didnt have so much trouble with my stations making money I mean ive had a silicon mine setup on a 26y asteroid for over 30 rl hours of my game running and all its done is eat up %70 of my money i put into it then since then used up most of the remainder for what i dont know.
although the ship i gave that cag had a jumpdrive i think maybee he is spending to much on jumping I think I will take it away from him, infact I just feel like destroying all my stations and starting over , but im already short on pacience , i dont think i could play this game a second time lol.

hard to take a game serious when everytime anyone says Khaak you laugh.
1- it is spelt Kha'ak, though IIRC it was spelt Khaak in X2 but changed to Kha'ak in X3 to stop people thinking it's ****, and although I do have **** on my mind pretty much 100% of the time I've never considered Kha'ak or Khaak to be male genitalia.
2- as the company is based in Germany, it's highly likely that Kha'ak's pronunciation either means something completely different or means nothing at all.

Yes, some scripts are cheat scripts.
Most aren't.
They often add something that is completely balanced into the game, while some actually make it harder. There is one particular script around that greatly increases xenon and Kha'ak invasion strength, and that of the military powers.

Trade, fight, build & think.
This is not a brainless arcade shooter game. It may not be suitable for someone who wants more babysitting than independent thinking.
Find your own goals. If you can't, find another game.

Since it's not spelt that way, and not pronounced that way in game, no.Warlander wrote:you just think that and besides Kock is clearly what they intended when they made the game.beyer_garratt wrote:Ah, fyi it's spelt Kha'ak.

It wasn't expecially funny in that review, and it's not funny now.

Thats right, it is different in german.ninjitsumonk wrote:2- as the company is based in Germany, it's highly likely that Kha'ak's pronunciation either means something completely different or means nothing at all.
A lot of companies have had problems with words meaning something completely different when they are in a different language. Try to sell a product internationally and it can be a real "minefield".
But it's only funny once. It's "old stuff."

I didnt see the review untill after i had the game, and if you listen to the english opening especially the president most people pronounce it kock.Carlo the Curious wrote:Since it's not spelt that way, and not pronounced that way in game, no.Warlander wrote:you just think that and besides Kock is clearly what they intended when they made the game.beyer_garratt wrote:Ah, fyi it's spelt Kha'ak.

Yeah, you've got that right, I've never thought of it as ****, and tbh I never will. The fact that it isn't even spelt that way, or even anywhere near that way(kha'ak and **** are quite different in spelling and phonetics) means that it hasn't got anything to do with ****, period.Carlo the Curious wrote:Doesn't sound like it to me, and it doesn't change the fact that's not how it's spelt.

Doesn't change the fact that it's not their races name and hence any other term would be derogerotory(ignore the spelling, you all know what I mean ) of them.
Considering also we have no idea what "Terran Conflict" (note the conflict bit!!!) will have in store for us, I suggest we give them the benefit of the doubt .
