Heh, yes the player numbers will surge now, broken rocks and used limpets everywhere
I demand a giant Borat Mankini ship kit.
This is why user-designed skins must never be allowed.
5 bilion? I think you guys have completely lost your mind! I have 2 billion in my account that should be enough for a basic version. I will not come back to grind another 3 billion credits for this...
Can't you make a smaller and cheaper version? Not everyone need 16 landing pad!!!
See you on December when atmospheric planets will be hopefully announced!
5 billion......... that will take me another 8 yrs play to get that much.....
Unless they can be hi-jacked

If you play eight hours a year, yeah.
It is only for landing, there is no shipyard so you can change ships while docked in the FC, so there is no need for extra space to maneuver a single ship per pad.
Not passenger missions rather source and return missions
Fleet Carriers jump into Elite Dangerous | Invision Game Community
Frontier Developments has revealed the first details on Fleet Carriers, an eagerly awaited update to the long-running space simulator, Elite Dangerous.invisioncommunity.co.uk
Wonder how accurate that article statement is...
Reading the article the FCs sound like a credit sink for end game players, what with upkeep and whatnot. I wonder how much a day/week they'll cost to run. Or will the cost be in materials/cargo that can be traded for? Hence the tariffs.
We can build a stepping stone bridge from here to Colonia!::checks bank balance::
...can we buy more than one..?
Fair enough.Orrrrrr... get this.... the pad lowers straight down and is the hangar
Where does the top cover slide in from?
I think the price is about right - after all it's something that should require a little bit of effort. Mind you, I'm unlikely to ever even see one - I've been playing since the XBox pre-view and only have around 500M, and I also play in Solo so I'm not going to be docking on anyone else's FC.

Interesting in a 'this is going to lead to "I left the game for a few months and my Carrier has been scrapped!!1eleven!" threads' sort of a way - certainly.
I wonder, as the Carrier is personal rather than Squadron based, how high the weekly upkeep bar willl be set - too high and it will disenfranchise some players who can afford one but can't devote significant time per week to earn the upkeep.
Sorry but this is nonsense. You can make 100m an hour in the game today if that's what you want to do. I'm not saying you should do it, you should do whatever you enjoy doing, but let's not push this myth.
I have the credits and I'll be buying a carrier on day 1; very excited.
But I think the price needs to be lower. According to the Inara statistics we've seen, anyone with over a billion credits is an outlier. I see no sense in FD doing all this work only to generate loads of complaints about "grind".

They've said a few times that it's one per CMDR. Obviously, that could change if they want it to, but right now, it's looking like just one.
