I have an MSI laptop as well (GT60 0ND with GTX680M). Rebirth is working on the Nvidia card via the internal display or an external display. Does your laptop power light power LED change colour from white to orange when the Nvidia card is being used? Even with patch 1.15 Rebirth still only displays...

I had good success in Savage Spur in my last game - the Paranid had a small task force in the sector that were kept busy by the Yaki, and as the Yaki had their hands full with the Paranid task force I had plenty of visitors..... I put my selling prices just below average for both and had little prob...

I would start with X3 TC - Terran Conflict - it may not seem so at first but it is a much easier "x3" game to get into. The x3 AP may have the "war" story line, however all others are not present (having already been completed in TC). Some people who have played since the very first game - myself in...

I find the game start most interesting, the struggle with little or no income, everything is bigger than you. I re-start frequently.

Whilst I agree totally with Nanook with respect the PHQ the mission I dislike the most is A New Home - I strongly dislike suduko. I am running two games, one at home and one in Norway (where I work). I have internet in Norway and so have completed the mission, in the UK Freedoms Reach is a closed se...

I have not completed in v2.6 as yet - however in v2.5 in my last game the station was towards the north and a long way up (as in think 3d - go just above north gate and then go a long way up).

I disagree with Alex. SPP's in X2 are the best earners around. If you place them well. And they're fairly cheap, too, compared to later games. So yeah, dropping another SPP somewhere that has an energy shortage is the best idea. Whilst I agree with this in principle outside of Argon space I found t...
