Will there be fps?

[Timmy the Dragonborn]

like boarding others' ships and killing their crews?

No FPS in X4, you can walk around stations or ships but no shooting gameplay.

Dont like FPS?

[Bozz 💀]

I don't think it will come even with DLCs.... Maybe in X5 but they have a lot to correct after X:R so I don't think they'll take the risk of making a FPS combat part here.
But yeah It would be fun :)

Some of the gameplay looks like it is FPS ready even. Maybe a dlc to turn it on and add the assets is all that is needed.

Teleporters are a thing in the X Universe now. Maybe a boading party will teleport onto the players ship if defenses are down or what ever, and of course vice versa.

I wonder what kind of pistols and armor will be added?

I agree Egosoft spend nearly 2 decades making a series of games that are different from almost anything out there and people want to turn them into FPS unreal .

You explore ,Build stations ,create an empire across countless sectors ,manage a fleet of power & destruction and then after lunch go on a FPS rampage at the local trading station well that adds alot to the game

I wouldn't mind a little fps action when doing boarding missions. Optional though.

except DLCs will never bring new mechanics. Just content. So if you feel like it's wise you may hope for them to add it as an base game mechanic in some big update later. But for sure it won't be a DLC.

FPS boarding action with your marines would be awesome

For sure.

Maybe capital ships will have an already on board force of marines standard. Which brings up the subject of crew pay.

Crew pay would be great as a balancing factor to keep player fleet size to within reasonable sizes and make the best ship worth focusing on and things like that. In theory anyway.
