New ship: Panther Clipper

I always try to keep my complaining on topic. :cool:

I wonder if FD will be tempted to inflate the Arx price for this ship, or extend its EA period due to how much this has been requested over the years?.

I will admit i am looking forward to getting my mitts on one, i love flying my T9 (/T10) and Anaconda they just "feel" right in terms of giant ships of industry.

I have only flown a cutter in beta (i dont have the rank) however truth be told i may skip it anyway, its far too pretty for my tastes for any role i would give it. i wont lie the panther is a little bit down that road but its not quite as bling as the cutter.

(the cutter as a mining / bulk trade ship for me would be a bit like using a brand new range rover to transport the horse crap from the horse pen to the muck spreader on a farm. it may be good at it but it just seems wrong.)
 
Well you couldn't really just call them chocolate bars...


Aaagh, I fell into the trap.
i was about to say i dont think you can get them any more..... but a quick google and


its a little out of date mind you ;)

Similar price to what a Panther stellar version is likely to cost. It's one or the other unfortunately.
 
that is a nice paint job for sure. Damn shame you can't get them in game. years ago (I have long since readjusted my expectations) I had visions of finding a wrecked ship on a planet surface any maybe fully salvaging it and getting it running again. in my mind it probably looked a bit like that
I love finding ships in No Man's Sky, and love stealing them in Starfield, but the experiences are a bit too repetitive, oversimplified, and overabundant. I imagine that if Elite had a similar mechanic, it would share these problems and add the problem of an unnecessarily protracted grind loop that has to eventually be nerfed out of the game by giving an essential material a ludicrous drop rate.

I bought several Raider Kits years back, when prices were almost sensible... My personal opinion is that they are the 'best' value packs to buy. I have Cobra 3, Krait II, Vulture, Corvette & Cutter... All look good, the Cobra 3 is likely the most imaginitive.
 
So far, of the new ships the Cobra V is the clear winner for me

YMMV
I recently got my hands on one but I haven't engineered it except the thrusters. Gonna use it for exobio.
You say that but the other Bigmaec is going to smash that ARX button minute one, rational considerations be damned!
Propably. Most propably. But at least I can tell myself until then I won't do it :LOL:
