You ~really~ should check your rig. There are quite some people testing the beta without having your issues.

Best follow this standard procedure:
  • Absolutely no mods installed, best use a fresh installation of the game, then apply the beta patch
  • If using Steam - use file validation
  • If you used mods - remove your X4 profile folder (back it up as the beta password told you) and start with a clean X4 profile (the game will create one if none is present
If that doesn't help you need to provide details about your system for further analysis.

Indeed. If you just say "no thanks" and don't give us any information, then there's a good chance that whatever problem you are having won't get fixed (assuming there is actually a problem, and it's not just that you have an incorrect setup or mods where the authors haven't yet updated them for the new version).

I don't understand why people are complaining about a beta?

Its a Test-Version. It's purpose is to find bugs, not to entertain you.
If you don't want to TEST, do not download that TEST VERSION.

If you do and encounter problems file a bug report in the beta forum.

Make sure your graphic drivers are up-to-date. 6.00 is changing a lot under the hood so it is possible that older graphic drivers might have issues.

Get steam to check the file integrity of X4 in case something was corrupted during the downloading of the beta branch.

If any third party mods were installed, remove them as there is a chance they may not be compatible with 6.00.

Try resetting your game settings by deleting the appropriate files in the documents folder in case these files somehow ended up in a no longer valid state.

Restart your computer in case a driver has bugged out. Restarting forces all drivers to be reloaded.
