| I try to buy the maximum training points per level if possible. Gets expensive though. My character is a melee type and I find the one strength related attribute I have a real burden to raise ( blade ... |

| Out of interest, how many of you are min/maxing skills in this game ? I really wish Bethesda would choose a levelling system that discourages this activity. It detracts from the general gameplay/conte ... |

| Weapon tracking/firing speed is sort of borked in X3 - yet another thing they need to patch. HEPTs are particularly bad in the slow moving turrets. May I suggest PACS or even mass drivers instead. The ... |

Actually, I had meant to say don't use the MOUSE for combat ...
The keyboard is OK, I agree ... but I personally prefer a joystick. |

My tip for X3 is dont use the keyboard to fly with. It's workable for non-combat flight, but in furballs .... oh dear me  |

| Lol , but have you seen some of the shields you can get for capital ships ? HUGE ratings. Can't wait till I can afford one and go on the rampage in Xenon lands. |

Sounds as if you are rolling along quite nicely now. I've ventured into Xenon sectors too, and agree they are extremely nasty if you aren't properly equipped.
Factories, and commodities in general ... |

| Hmm ... that must be really frustrating to have it crash so often. Nevermind , patch 1.3 is not meant to be that far away ( originally touted for around the end of November ). |

I take it you started out in normal-plot mode then?
For sure, you don't get much to start with. The buster is nice, but as you say it's too slow to out-maneouvre harriers and lacks punch to take o ... |
