Python ship kit?

[Imo]

In the classic ELITE there was a mission with a new prototype ship that looked a bit like a new version of the ASP. It was named the "Cougar". Unfortunately the Cougar has not been seen much in the game because of its cloaking device. [hehe]

When you look at the pictures on the Steam shop, You can clearly see a Viper 3 with ship kit on as well.

Indeed. I'd love a Mk2 Python:

That ship on the left made me squeal like a child. I need it.

PLEASE FD.

The Viper and Conda both have ship kit assets in there respective game folders, so hopefully before Christmas. Finger crossed this week the Python ship kit will be released followed by the wireframe skins on Black Friday.

It's Lord British from Salamander.

I swear, if the Imperial Courier somehow gets Vic Viper parts, I'm never playing another game ever again.

I'm told if you input the Konami code you get fully outfitted!

Yeah. Wireframe paintjobs next week for sure though, as they are black... Maybe, just maybe, the Python Shipkit as well!

Expected Python ship kit release date judging from current trend: sometime next fall... maybe a few years... who knows, really?

I was hoping for, finally, a ship kit for my beloved Python, before setting out to Colonia; but alas.
So; screw them.

Python seems to be a nice enough CG trader, so I might hang onto one for a bit. It does look pretty... odd (pointy, rear heavy, and humpbacked) and kind of bland though, in my opinion. I think a ship kit is definitely in order. [up]

 

[WR3ND]

The Python just needs a fighter bay too

Nope, I'd prefer if they made it so that it actually is a fighter...

All ships in the game need 2x the maneuverability and speed, IMO.

 

[WR3ND]

So... has anyone else found themselves refreshing the Python store page at least once a day?

PS: I came here to look at the pictures again.

This week the ship kit will be released I'm sure he says between gritted teeth...

Oh, you mean the Keelback ship kit?

*ducks*

I've honestly given up hope at this point. They'll probably think up some useless paint pack for a ship no one uses and sell that instead.

 

[Gunnet]

I've abandoned any real expectations for the regular Fridays. But I remain hopeful about releases over Christmas and New Year.

 

[Alex Brentnall]

I have a hunch from the livestream that this week or next week will be engine colours. Not sure when/how the python kit will fit in. Personally I'm more excited about the Conda ship kit
