Hi :)

Does that mean that the servers will be very slow on startup?
:D...I'm willing to bet on it!

I just bought the game a couple of hours ago lol, darn.
Hi, and welcome to the Forum :)

Nelly the Elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus.
The head of the herd was calling far far away , by the light of the silvery moon on the road to Mandalay.

For those of us who still play 78's.

And yes my ship will be called Nelly the Elephant. QED.

:D...Hmm, I've not given any names to any of my ships, I usually give them just the name of my imaginary 'Corporation' in the game and if I can, what role they play (Wild Deer Corporation (for general use) or Wild Deer Travel, Wild Deer Trade or Wild Deer Mining etc.).
I might make an exception though with the Mandalay or Cobra Mk V.
Ah!, yes...Banners, that's another graphical add on that's quite novel...I like, I'm not moaning, it's just a thought I had when seeing them but It would be pretty neat If one could customise those banners...basically in the same way as naming your ship. In my personal case I could transfer a duplicate of my ships name, and have that banner also advertising my imaginary 'Corporation' name as well. :cool:

Anyhow, on the subject of the new Mandalay and Cobra V...I thought the paint job for the Mandalay Stellar version is graphically attractive when I was looking at the Livestream last night.(y)...not too sure about the ship kit, I'll get a better impression if / when I can buy one later today perhaps. I hadn't noticed this in any of the previous livestreams but I also quite like the 'glowing' ?...SCO drive nacelles (on the top) when the ship was powering those up....or was I imagining it...:unsure:

The Cobra V looks great too, I personally like the new design so I'll definitely get one of those when it's released. Was it shown with a ship kit?...or was it the standard version?
As it's probably still a work in progress I'd suspect it was shown 'un ship kitted out'. The new cockpit design was hinted at as having a better view than the Cobra 3, with a similar view to the front and downwards as per the Mandalay's, well that's how I read it from the commentary in the Livestream.
Hopefully just another hour and a half to go....;)

Jack :)
