Just wanted you to know that I have watched all of your videos a ridiculous amount of times. Informative, succinct, entertaining, and clear. I watch them so many times because I am always at a different point in my playthrough, gaining different rep, different focus, and everything is so complex. Great work.

this man had the best videos, and just like. up and left, why? donno

I want fighters i can fill multiple carriers with to police/patrol a sector and hopefully never have to replace the fighters, any suggestions? Heretics end btw it gets raided to much.

Just some medicinal advice, even though this video is 3 years old, so you probably already managed. You aren't supposed to quit Prednisone cold turkey. That is why one gets sick because it doesn't give your body enough time to compensate for the lower levels of natural cortisone. On average, as you slowly taper off it, it can take between a month or two to finally get back on track.

I always fall back on the Dragon. It can easily bring down capital ships as long as you exploit their blind spots and take out engines and turrets, before you focus on shields and hull. A K is no match for it. An I is harder because the turrets can't be destroyed from a safe angle. But if you are a bit careful it can be done.

I like to have fleets of almost entirely gunboats in my opinion it works well for the cost when out of sector. My fleet of 100+ That was almost entirely gunboats really cleaned house on xenons.

Awesome.

Thanks for this video! it was really concise and easily taught me the big differences between them and gave me a better idea about what to use

Dude. my experiences with the base building sucks so far. Trying to place the pier is very frustrating. I thought I could just shuffle it automatically, but everything but the pier is placed.

I heard that nvidium thing was a good start for mining, so I had my guy go there. Does he auto sell his cargo? I haven’t seen him find any for a long time o.o

As my first M ship, I've learned to love the Cerberus and will defend it till my last breath. It's the ship that made me love the design language of this game, and that really made me appreciate the scale that having space legs give to a game. Also, I love when ships are given disadvantages. I'm a staunch proponent of making bad ships to enhance the lore lol.

Your immune system was not dependent on it, it was totally suppressed by it, messing up all kinds of biochemical equillibria. Why the F did they give you a glucocorticoid longterm? That is the pathway to a chronic immune disorder, which makes lots of money for the hospital but is not pleasant for you.

Thank you for demystifying the guns

That ending 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 instant sub

I prefer large traders for several reasons, notably survival rates but also because I don’t want a balanced economy. You affect the universe a lot with a trading fleet, for better and worse. A smooth balanced economy has lower margins and no xenon left to mix things up. A nice chunky and explosive economy is where it’s at and large traders are better for keeping it that way.

Im not sure which update it was that added them but these guys have destroyers with doom lasers now, these things are sector killers imho scarier than the xenon capitals. You go to poke one of their bases and three of them will pop out of the aether and nuke you. Seems very dependent on what you roll for a seed when you start a game for how many you will see if at all. If you do see them the only way to get rid of them reliably is an anti capital medium shoved up their butt. They turn on a dime so getting wedged up there without getting your ship blown out from under you can be difficult.

I come back periodically to watch these just for fun, your hatred for the elite vanguard always cracks me up. On a side note as an additional tip, if you pause before you spam the deploy button from the ship info tab then un-pause your ship will rapid fire vomit most of the turrets out. Also if you do it with a carrier that has quick launch tubes using the pause button you can spray sheets of laser turrets out towards a gate. Some carriers don't like this though, the new colossus E doesn't like it for some reason but I haven't tried them all.

The void took care of my first useless ship for me. I consider that a net positive because that ship sucked.

Did the tree win? Haven't posted in 2 yrs...

Lots of Kha'ak violently pounds my miners, one could say

Moreya is so good though. Insane speed and high firepower combine very well.

I like using muon charger on small, fast fighters that get really close. The projectile speed is quite low so I don't really like using it outside of knife fights but it does nutty damage even to m ships so I am a staunch supporter of this gun

thx for all the guides ur channel realy is a amazing resource

Going through these videos has been so great!

0:09 😂😂😂

I thought Service crew also help with turret efficiency, and of course repairs. So if you don't have service crew on traders, then there's also no point to have turrets, and you have to manually repair them. But does service crew level up if they are on a trader? I think I saw several leveling up management, but I'm not sure. How does ship repair scale with service crew skill & number scale? So many questions. We need a part 3!

Your mom is a station

Can you update all your guides going into 2025 with the new content?

Just found you and making X4 easy. Thank you

its 3 years old, but it helps me in setting up my stuff... thank you very much mate

I could listen to this guy narrate paint drying and still have fun.

they did in fact patch this out and created a priority metric for miners

The Xenon are harmless until they start endlessly spamming I's.

I’ve played a huge amount of times three, back like 14 years ago. All I am thinking watching your videos is what did they do to my boy argons

This is a very good guide. Masterpiece even.

Your videos are useful and concise. I have had several of them on standby as I need them, now that I'm building my own shipyard, and this was one of them. Just wanted to let you know your work is appreciated.

Watched this hoping I could get one of the Xenon Destroyers lol. Found one at 3 percent hull, disabled the engines, and tried for about 20 minutes to get my ship to send marines in... read up a bit and saw it was impossible to send marines in the xenon ships or at least the bigger ones.

Peace through superior firepower

do you have an updated version including borons and timelines?

I found your X4 videos to be the easiest to digest. Thank you and i hope you can find the time to make more videos. Even if they're just shorts. (I have been dying for someone to do an in-depth look at shard batteries)

I've just gotten into X4 after the 7.0 update, i've been using all your videos and they're been fantastic to follow and learn a lot from. Is there any chance you'd want to go over all the new ships that they have added? I'd love to see your analysis with boron's ships included.

Have another ship go on report orders pickup drops. It really helps for mods

Grats on the thing.

I’ve found that they are a great way to train your pilots since their weapons are sorta weak. Load up your destroyers with S fighters, ( your choice of type ) kite a swarm away from the base with your destroyer(s) and then have your squadron engage around the cover of your destroyers 😁

I use L ship when i need to feed the large complex or when sector are too crowd. Having 50+ M ship in same sector are no joke.

I have to say, even if lot of time has passed since the release of these videos, that I really love your explanations, video editing and irony. Your videos are short, clear and helpful for players like me. Well done. Oh, and I like your voice too 😂

Best S Engines: Argon - Travel speed Paranid - Normal Speed (affordable choice) Split - Fastest Normal Speed, less average Travel Speed Best M Engines: Argon - Best Travel speed Teladi - Economical choice, great for miners & traders because of their deceleration Paranid - Normal Speed (affordable choice) Split - Fastest Normal Speed, less average Travel Speed *Terran Engines - Lower average stats but best travel speed acceleration. Best modded Best L Engines: Argon - Best Travel Speed Paranid - Good stats with mostly paranid vessels Teladi - for your L traders and Freighters Split - Good normal speed, terrible travel speed. Usually best used for Split ships only *Terran - bad general stats, but fast travel speed acceleration. Average for Terran ships. Best modded Best XL Engines: Argon: Best Travel Speed Teladi: Best deceleration (XL ships are heavy af) Paranid: Below Average Split: Good normal speed, terrible travel speed. Terran: Bad average stats, fast travel speed acceleration. Mod this sumbitch Best Shields: S Class Argon (economical) & Terran (better argon, way more expensive) M Class Argon (economical), Paranid (recharge rate, good for turrets), Terran (better argon, way more expensive) L & XL Class Argon (economical), Paranid (economical, lower hp but better recharge rate. good mix with argon), Teladi (highest hp economical) Terran (better argon, way more expensive) Faction Exclusives: Boron Engines - Good overall stats, slow travel speed acceleration Boron Shields - Best of the best, exclusive to boron ships Frontier Engines - Terran Prototype (good, but lower overall stats, again, best modded) Frontier Shields - Similar to Terran Note: Modding is an option. I would recommend to do it on only ships you would prefer to fly personally most of the time

Kuraokami raiding parties can be found early game in segaris sectors. Just get the free Perseus, outfit it mk2, pirate freelancer katanas til Yaki raiding parties show up. A long as you dont shoot the leader (one with the crown) they WILL NOT fight back. Force em out, you get a kuraokami within 1 hr from start. Feel free to take a Moreya too!!!

Absolutely awesome guides, man! Brief and filled with only useful info💪 Too bad you're not doing it anymore for v. 7.10
