New ship: Panther Clipper

[Rat Catcher]

we can expect 20,000 ARX Paint Jobs for sure.

If the faithful will pay it, I'm sure we might.
Those, like me, who consider there is insufficient value in any offering, will not spend their money - if enough folk say "No", marketing might need a rethink.

A ship with no nose?

If you can fit the Anaconda through the slot, you probably can fit the Panther, with perhaps some adjustment required to learn its dimensions/clearances (and the common sense to just fly through the center). Going by Frontier’s footage I would also not lower the gear until well clear of said slot… else you might get stuck from the thrusters moving into the landing position.

They should add a scanner view on the display like pops up for landing that shows your ship and the mail slot clearances. That would be super helpful!

How does it smell? Lol

Same as Lord Voldemort, I suppose.

I would agree that this should be an Added Feature for COVAS.
It would Improve General Safety of Ships Entering the Ports, and Leaving them.

ED partner streamers got 1 week early access to the PC.

I was waiting for that to get the details for an early buyers’ decision.

Good: The two large hardpoints are on the bottom of the ship and appear to be centered.

Bad: Some of the top hardpoints appear to shoot through your own hull when fixed.

I'm not sure why I shouldn't be surprised ? After all these years .... Maybe that's why it costs more in early release ? Magic cargo and special hulls what next ??

 

[Helmut Grokenberger]

is it on the vanilla hull too, or a ship kit issue?

The hardpoints shooting through the hull ? That'll be a vanilla feature. Maybe they want us to put mine launchers there.

I guess they designed it with turrets in mind, it not being a combat ship .

I was watching a stream, so I can’t test that for myself.

Anything that encourages people not to use fixed weapons is good.

Why anyone even would use fixed weapons on this thing unless it's mining tools or a meme AX build, it's beyond me.

Do we have anything on the speed figures of the ship yet? Preferably engineered ones, if available.

engineered it boost a bit shy of 400 as far as I've seen on a preview stream. With some lightweighting you might get 400.
