ship

Though mentioned in earlier now locked or archived posts, the need for better SRVs mechanics: All SRVS and ships should have a remote pick up system for rocky non landable areas or for quick pick ups from hostile environments. Ships landing should be adjusted to be able to land in flatter...

Alliance Crusader "REVIEW" (link here) ...soo what do you guys think of the ship?

The in-game description of the fighter bay reads: "can take up to sidewinder size". It's a great disappointment, then, that I can't place my sidey in the fighter bay. This would make for some seriously enhanced game-play for several reasons: 1. you could use your sidey / suppport ship to dock...

Can we get a little more love for the smaller ships in game? I haven't seen any new paint jobs for my poor dbx (diamond back explorer) in forever. :(

/// Wreck missions (Not sure it sounds correct in english, I'm not an native english speaker.) A “wreck mission” mainly consists into remotely or physically take control of a ship's GUI which is drifting in space in order to : activate ship's parts you want your limpets to scavenge, jettison...

Hi me again. *Waves idiotically* Just a post in the hope that we'll get another small ship in the Q4 update. (not a SLF but an actual jump capable superiority fighter) Hopefully with an interesting hardpoint layout different to the carbon copy Viper loadouts. Personally I'd like to see one...

Dear Frontier, I am playing this game since 1985 for the trading. Yet in 2018 the maximum I can load are a bout 728 units in my tiny Imperial Cutter. Can we PLEASE get a huge BRICK IN SPACE like the Panther Clipper? If you don't like to give us that, how about another ugly, low speed, badly...

I'm not sure this observation is in the right place, but here goes! I accept a lot of contracts that end up with bounty hunters/assassins being sent to eliminate me! I don't very often oblige them with combat, being very often outgunned, so I outfly them in the "mini-game". This has the...

What the Heck is going on! Am I being Cheated or Mislead? We gathered more than 10 Ships and attacked Zamina Torval's Capital Ship the Xanadu over 6 times, and took it down to "0" Hull each time, but its wouldn't die. Look, if a Capital Ship can't die, then it shouldn't be an active...

Yello Fdev and fellow space pilots. Can we please get a nerf (Yes.. You read that right...) On the Elite/Deadly ranked SLF's. At this point they are Aimbots. My beef with these little hellions is that, at least as far as PvP goes, They are one of the biggest click win assets in game, in such...

With help of Exigeous I present : Challenger "review"! VIDEO LINK HERE

I've been at this game for a few months now. Got a few hundred hours in, and have gotten pretty good. Started getting a little bored with the day-to-day of the game, so thought I'd change things up and actually start doing some of the community goals. Always wanted to, just had more important...

Just watched a video on one of the Generation Ships and I had this thhougth: "How cool would it be for us to stumble upon a Generation Ship, which is still alive?" I mean just imagine, picking up a signal from a listening post and following the clues only to stumble upon a Generation Ship. And...

Hey Ladies and Gentlemen, I made a tour to the generation ships this evening, following the instructions from canonn. I had some amazing impressions and even planned the route utilizing the travelling salesman problem solutions. But I also had to realize that the generation ships Hyperion and...

Need the ability to change ship views in the livery, especially for the application of ship kits. Currently I have to apply a piece, exit the livery, return to the surface, enter free cam, and then determine that the piece doesn't look good. Please let one of the thumbsticks control rotation or...

Exploration ships have a large gap in price/feature levels between AspX and Anaconda. It would be nice to have an exploration-focused medium ship with a good supercruise turning radius and slightly more module slots than the Asp. I would propose something like this: Ship AspX New Scout...

Hey Cmdrs, I am looking for assistance in finding new roles for ships. I have created over 125 ships for all the Power Players and Superpowers. Each ship with a specific role. I need more reasons to build more ships! Maybe you know of some other roles and specific load outs that you have...

Anyone have any speculation on what the new upcoming Challenger class ship will be like? I hoping for a ship with Python-like versatility!

Hopefully the topic is obvious. Since we're getting some kind of new ship(s) in the next update, I thought this might be fun to chat about. What's one of your favorite ship and what's one of your least favorite ships in the game so far? One of my favorites is the Beluga. Its relatively...

The Federal Corvette needs a fix, and now is the time to do it. This sounds strange. The ship is big. The ship is shiney. The ship is incredibly popular to grind for. What could possibly be wrong? The game evolved, and the Corvette didn't. Bear with me, or skip to the TLDR at the bottom. The...

I really love the aesthetics of the imperial ships and it sucks that to do very long range exploration I'm gimping myself if I don't use an asp or anaconda. I'd really love an imperial explorer ship

I just bin trying to build ships but integrity makes things tougher so how does this affect my modules and hp if someone link any post would be much appreciated Fly safe and smart cmdrs

I have read billions of "FDL vs Clipper" topics and everyone said "Clipper is a gorgeous cheap multipurpose ship but FDL is a clear choice for combat bla bla" than decided to work on theory and numbers. I made two different combat builds, one of them is close to my current FDL (just a bit over...

WHAAM! -- 118 Paintjob Concepts For Fun Hello. I was bored, so I made a few paintjobs. I know not all ships are represented. For one, preparing a ship takes between 5 and 10 hours; times 31 that's a lot of time. Secondly, part of the ships are variations on each others. This is mostly 2-tone...

I love this game. I'm on a WIP about DB Explorer, just to push the dev (friendly) to give me the ship KIT for my beloved DBE,and a job if possible... Here a screen about a first concept, more in the next days. Alex.

Dear Frontier Your design team produces visual masterpieces and I am thrilled with the quality of the content you bring us. However, and I hope the community will get behind me on this one, the rear spoiler on the Lakon Type 10 is probably not one of them. Please will Frontier consider making...

Awesome work by CMDR Bungle Bear or /u/prefim on reddit. You can see his original post here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nDYYYqrhp4

Summary: This proposal is about the principle of converting hardpoint slots to optional internal module slots. This allows an increase in the number of optional internals a ship can carry (= versatility/functionality), at the cost of firepower. Example of conversion rates: Small Hardpoint =...

So, I've now been playing ED on the Xbox One for about a year now. I'm quite pleased to see 2 new ships finally be added, the Chieftain and the Defender. I quite enjoy both, especially since the AC gives an alternative to the Python, but....It feels a little....Off, agile-wise. Like, it's really...

Anyone know the name of the new mega ship they are building at Evans Port?? Looks Cool what ever it is?

Up to now, I've mainly been putting D-rated sensors on most ships and A-rated sensors on combat ships, as I heard a long time ago, that you can pick up enemy ships from greater distance. This seemed simple enough, and I really had no need for further inquiry, as there weren't any options to...

You've just come back to your home station after a long exploration time outside the bubble. You are equipped with lightweight everything, no hardpoints, etc. How nice would it be to open a list of presets you've created with all the models with that ship and to just be able to click "Bounty...

For this subject, the only posts I could find were ancient - from 2.3. I read where you were "supposed" to get them back then: Boom State systems with high population in either USS, Hi-Res or CZ by scanning ships. But lets not talk specifically about ASPA's just yet: The problem starts long...

It seems that in spite of the Devs' best efforts to the contrary, PvE in the game often descents into a very "turrets in space" style of gameplay, where 2 ships just slug fire at each other while trying to shield tank the damage taken. I believe that this has a deterimental impact on the overall...

I often wonder why we cannot select a ship we own at the beginning of play. e.g. I have a ship at Ceos and a few around the homeworld. I CAN jump in my Asp and travel back to Ceos to do missions but this takes over half an hour of play from me just to travel!!! WHY??? some say to keep the...

Passenger or combat? Python Mark II...? Cobra Mark V...?

So i finally got a python and wanted to do trading with it and i found this build but it needs engineering and with what i have rn(280t/16ly Laden) i cant find any trading routes on eddb. Can someone help me to either find a loadout or something else so i can trade with it, thank you [heart]

Do you have an NPC Crew member you're attached to? Do you prefer to fly in a non-SLF compatible ship? Ever wish your crewmember could be more useful outside of SLF? Then I have the solution for you! Upgrade your Crewmember to your Wingman! Upgrading your crew brings multiple benefits: 1.)...

Thank you for taking time to read my very first suggestion on the forums! This morning i was thinking about flying in canyons, skimming across the surface, flying next to cliffs, ... which gave me a mission idea similar to the "scan outpost" missions: Main idea: The mission's goal is to survey...

The Python was once used as a patrol cruiser, so now that ship launch fighters are in the game shouldn't the Python be able to carry a fighter as well? As one of the larger of the medium class ships and given its history it would make sense. Please consider this request. Thank you.
