To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Post here any moments in X Rebirth which you consider awesome/whatevs and discuss them!
I was trying to chase down a titurel freighter here while it was boosting. The hard part about this was trying to keep lockon on the targets, while avoiding point defense fire and at the same time trying to stay in the fairly small 'gravity well' of the titurel to make sure i remained close enough to damage it. If you fall out of the gravwell, you will need to deplete all your shields on manual boosting if you want to have a chance of catching up. The boosting also caused you to shake around constantly, forcing you to constantly adjust your strafing and speed. In the end I failed to take down its engines so i could board it, because it came to a station which blew it to bits.
Nice screenshot, sounds like a real challenge to make that happen taking a ship on in fast travel.
Yep. I failed in the end, but it was a nice challenge.
Here's some short pieces of gameplay in X Rebirth:
