Version 2.6 of X3: Terran Conflict. This release includes the additional "NEW HOME" plot for its space game opera X3: Terran Conflict. X3: Terran Conflict Bonus Pack - version 2.6 also features the long-awaited NEW HOME missions, which promises to be quite an adventure for current players who like their THINK missions.
Concurrent with the release of Version 2.6 is the long-awaited arrival of the X3: Terran Conflict Bonus Pack. This popular fixture of previous X titles will offer some of your favorite script plugins, developed by members of the community. Among the more popular scripts to be made available in the Bonus Pack are the Commercial Agent and the Commodity Logistics Software.
Starting with Version 2.6, this ultimate space simulator will introduce STEAM achievements and all of EGOSOFT’s existing (DVD) customers can update their non-STEAM versions of the game to a STEAM version for FREE.
Upcoming “Dead is Dead” Game Mode
In addition to the new achievements, EGOSOFT is now also actively developing a new game mode called "DEAD IS DEAD" inspired by the story of Squiddy McSquid (http://www.egosoft.com/download/x3tc/files/SquiddyVol1.pdf part 1 and http://www.egosoft.com/download/x3tc/files/SquiddyVol2.pdf part 2) that gained popularity on our online forums and inspired many players to try this game play style. This mode will save some information through the STEAM network and as a result players can continue playing after saving, but they can never revert back to a save game after they die. A thrilling experience for those who are strong enough!
“The 2.6 update is a special event for us because the development of the new Steam technology is a response to suggestions from our community,” said Bernd Lehahn, CEO of EGOSOFT. “We read the “Squiddy” story about a “Dead is Dead” mode and liked it a lot. We thank our friends at Valve for allowing all existing customers to activate these features for free.”
