Don't let it distract you from the fact that the Keelback now has a second seat!

.... or that the de-beigification is taking place.
Wait, I totally missed the keelback thing. When they showed the seat I lazily thought they were still in the chieftain, forgot about the switch. Cool stuff!
Overall the new update looks SO awesome that I am actually losing interest in playing the current build. Happily Friday is my next nerd day so I won’t have to.
That second seat will rectify a serious failing in the KB, I forsee that ship being popular.
Well, I don't think it's quite that good of a change. You'll just be able to fly with a friend... doesn't really change how it flies, just makes it something you can enjoy with a buddy... if you even have any that play Elite.
Yeah, it's no game changing improvement, but having a ship that can carry an SLF, then introducing a buddy system which cannot be applied to said ship was a bit of a booboo. They've rectified that at least.
(And don't worry, I'm a billy no-mates too. The Galaxy is full of them.
)
It already is popular with me. My only ship with a Crew-member on board
. Perfect ship for mining too IMHO.
That failing being what?
Al they did (so far) was lay down some new paint over the same old surfaces. Giant "Meh". o7
Also you can adjust in your options that starports call you by name or ship id or ship name if I am not mistaken.
I have doubts how they are going to call my ship though, because as far as I know it is seen as t************i in the game...

And don't forget kids that another method for earning decent credits, a method FDev said was "working as intended" has been nerf-hammered into non-existence. No reason to go to Upsilon Aquarii anymore . . . [knocked out]

Nothing for the second seat to actually do on the T6, so that'd be pretty pointless.
Keelback is the only SLF-capable ship that isn't also Multicrew-capable.
Ah, gotcha. Thanks!
