[Metalstardust]

Apparently it comes with mats, a full tank of fuel, fluffy dice and go faster stripes.

Pine scented cockpit freshening module too?

 

[Petersen]

I'd love to see stats before I get excited. And before I buy an(other) Asp and set off for the far side of the galaxy.

 

[Ydiss]

As excited as you can get when you're 13k LY away from being able to buy one

 

[bladebss]

I wunder what they mean buy resonably priced?

I wunder what they mean buy combat vessel?

the asp is ok in combat and is resonably cheap... so is it more manuverable than the asp and have bigger guns? Cheaper or more expensive? Look to be a simalar size to the asp.. made buy the same people and will fill the same or similar role... humm I hope its about 10 mill and has 3 large hard points and a 25ly range

 

[Philip Foster]

Only problem. Within a week everybody will have one. In fact I might have one.

 

[CMDR Brock Samson]

Isn't it a lesser Asp?*ducks and runs for cover*

 

[aws357]

I would not mind another exploration ship that does not looks like a boiled down potato for once (looking at Asp and Adder and shudder)

Burn him! Burn the heretic! Destroy the unbeliever! Mumble mumble huff.

Asp is literally in the running with the cobra for the worst non-trader combat ship!

 

[Crash1099]

I love the python to much. I can trade like crazy and bounty hunt all day. How much is the new ship going to cost?

How is cobra terrible? Before the Vulture quite a lot of people used it instead of Viper because of its much better power plant. The hard point placement isn't the best but it's very fast in general.
So you guys expect the diamondback to have worse jump range than the asp? I was hoping it would be between conda and asp.

 

[hort_wort]

It kinda reminds me of the corvettes from Homeworld.

I am not saying the cobra is bad, I am saying the others are better.

Lakon? Combat? HehaheheahaHA. I'll believe it when I sees it.
Lakon are the fundamental antithesis to combat. I mean you ever seen a type 6 hunt down a Viper? heheheh.
Whydyawant Guns on an exploration boat ne'hows? I mean... No-one really belives in... them... right?

Steeeel.... It could make a nice miner. Looks like it can hold a decent size cargo too. I'm in the market for sumthin' new-- These godsdamn asteroids keep swerving outta nowhere and dinging my lil' type 7. Maybe I can gets me one o' them fantastic Lakon Part-Exchanges instead of mortgaging myself to the hilt... again...
