Default X3? Any news about it?
As the title suggests. Games was suppose to ship in Mid-August. Beta program began in July.
No news since then.

... Anyone heard anything?

Nope, I haven't heard anything at all about it. Which is odd, Tux Games still says estimated release date of August 1st.

Pretty depressing.
I have the SE on pre-order since June

On the other hand, both UT2K7/Linux and ETQW/Linux should be released next month; hopefully they'll keep me busy till the the real thing (tm) is released.

Svartalf should be able to comment on any X3 news, due to his relations with LGP.

Heh... Was busy with some other things today...

I've not recently heard about X3- I'll check into what all's going on and I'll relate what I can about it here shortly.

It was my understanding around end of July time frame that it was supposed to be in it's final beta stages; it may have ran into a snag at the 11th hour- kind of like Ballistics ended up with.
(Edit: corrected the timeframe based off of what info I had in hand...)

I'm very interested in this game as well. The previous game looked great, and this one looks even better from the looks of it. I hope it gets released very soon.
