Hello CMDR’s,
Prior to update 3.0 my main ship was an Imperial Cutter because I am a space trucker and the Cutter carried way more cargo than any other ship. This despite the fact that the Type-9 was a more interesting design for me and I prefered the feel of it overall. Losing a few hundred tons of cargo was just a gap I could not cope with.
Like many other CMDR’s I was thrilled that the Type-9 got its long awaited buff and now it is my main ship and my Cutter is going to be re-purposed for something else in due time. For me, the Type-9 is now good enough and I am happy with the switch after some recent sessions to test it out. It felt really good updating my INARA signature to feature my Type-9 Heavy, the Spice Rhino!
Are there any other former Cutter pilots that have also switched to the Type-9 and are enjoying the change? Are there any space truckers who are deciding not to start the rank progression to get the Cutter because the Type-9 now meets their needs? I’d love to hear how many truckers are feeling about the recent changes.
Btw Frontier, the renewed love for the Space Cow might present a good opportunity to sell us some Type-9 bling. I’d love to see some new paint jobs and a ship kit for this legendary ship as it enjoys its new time in the sun!
