I made this one especially for you...

Oh, the linguistical ambiguities in that phrase

I've seen one type of decal (can't find the reference at the moment only that it said in brief the Panther Club )

All we have for the moment.

Hi

All we have for the moment.

Yep!...that's the one.

Woo hoo!
Store sale over (temptation removed) and still have my 19,020 ARX on hand.
9 sleeps to go.

Happy days

A true stoic!
Enjoy your 9 sleeps and PCII day.
I'll look forward to user reviews to follow!

Announcing a ship a month early before selling it sure kills the hype.
I almost lost all interest in colonization in the month that elapsed.

Yes but being selective about which threads you ignore on the forums can help avoid hype kill.

Any news on next weeks downtime??

Not that I have seen, so probably we will found out on Monday assuming it needs any.

When I buy the Panther Clipper MKII with Arx will it be available to me on regular shipyard as well from the same date? Will my purchase unlock the buying of the ship?

 

[Helmut Grokenberger]

It was that way with the other ships. When you buy it with ARX, it unlocked them in the shipyard. I expect it to be the same with the PC.

You probably won’t be able to deploy it at a shipyard in an outpost or anywhere else without large pads. But otherwise it will be just like the previous ship early access releases.

Yes, I ment large shipyards, but like it will be listed as available for purchase with CR. Because the Stellar version that I probably will buy comes with pre engineered modues, but I will loose those if I change the outfitting. So I want the pre engineered and a regular ship.

It is an early access ship, that comes with the right to buy it early at any suitable shipyard for credits.

Yes, buying a ship for ARX means you'll get a 'free' ship (with modules etc. depending on if you went for the standard or stellar version), and you can buy as many of that ship as you want for the regular credit cost.

Note, however, that it will likely be available for credits only at certain stations. Jameson Memorial and I Sola Prospect for certain, but in which others, I have no idea.

I bought all my new ships from stronghold carriers.

I've parked my Mandalay at a stronghold carrier, which should have the Panther Clipper available. I'll check my most developed system afterwards and see if they have the Panther Clipper in stock too, if it's there, it should be available across the galaxy.

It will be early access (ARX) so will only be able to buy in game if unlocked via buying the ARX version first

I think a lot of Cmdrs are planning to get two Clippers immediately - the unlocked ARX one first and a Shipyard bought one right after. I’ve thought the same, one for Carrier hauling and one for shifting metals etc from refineries.
