Spoiler++ for the T-10 available!

One thing that kinda shocks me about ED is you can't even paint your ship a solid color for free. What the hell? Does any other game go this far to keep you from basic customization?

I have to agree here - what's worse is the whole "express your individuality" marketing spiel. I’d be much happier if I could purchase a general design and then customise the colour combinations.
 
As is customary when I start weeping for FAS pj's I will now plug the below images as examples for Fed brick paintjobs done right!



^ Notice the distinct lack of rainbow coloured Smurf vomit and colours so garishly radioactive they might as well be rusty spoons digging out your eyeballs. This is what good taste looks like my dear Frontier interns, bask in its loveliness :D

Wow these are amazing. Insta-buy from me if released. Stunning. 4 of the bottom set really stand out.

I don't find it all that shocking really. A lot of people would just go solid black and never buy a thing. Plenty of games make black some sort of premium rare thing as is. They know what they're doing.

Wow, those actually look good.

Yep, another thumbs up and +1 from me too... great job. Would buy in a heart-beat. In fact, I'd even buy a the ship to go with it!



(Are you paying attention FD design dept!? ;) )
 
For me the next question is when do I get to put a rad spoiler on my T-9 Deluxe Space Cow? Becaues the new Type-9 Heavy has risen from the dead to be prince among ships, surely it must be getting its own Ship Kit some point soon? :D
 
I'm so glad they did this!

So many people took the mick out of that spoiler, it legitimately makes me happy that they basically gave them the finger.

Mad respect to the design team on this one. :D
This must have been their high school project then...triple idiot spoilers ftw (and coming in the next paint pack).

Frontier, I want to give you more money ... but you're not getting my money for this nonsense. I asked for a ship kit which would remove the spoiler. All you had to do was remove something and I'd pay you!

Agreed!

The old folks around here whine about the damnedest things. Best to just tune them out.

Those are really, really good o7

As for the ship kit [yesnod]
 
7 quid!

Nope, nopety nope. To be frank, the practice of cosmetic lootboxing like this really grates me.

That said, i have bought stuff. Peddle it - ejits will buy.

Nuff said.

This has nothing to do with "lootboxing". Loot boxes have a gambling element to them, their contents aren't known until after you pay.

I dunno.

Given the "paintjob roulette" that often accompanies fitting a ship-kit, there's an element of gambling involved. :p
 
For all the people who keep asking about removing the spoiler: it won't happen.

Not because I think it shouldn't (but FWIW I do like the spoiler), but because there are 2 utility mounts on the spoiler. A cosmetic kit is not going to add/remove slots. If that starts happening, we start getting into pay to win territory.. Is that what you want? To pay 10 bucks for extra utility slots? or 20 bucks for an extra internal? Let's not encourage it..

If you don't like the spoiler that much, just move on..
