ANNOUNCEMENT Elite Dangerous: Horizons Set to Land for All Commanders

No-one should want the MkIV - because it was exclusive, it had to be terrible.. and so it was.

1. I want it.
2. I don't care how bad it is.
3. I don't care.
4. I had to make a new account so I lost access to it. So it bugs me not having access to all the ships in the game.

I like how it looks. I like the space it has. I want a complete collection. That's all I need.
 
Funny isn't it? People who have the Cobra IV don't want it

It is pretty funny.

I mean you know me, if I'm in the bubble I'm in my Corvette 99% of the time. But that 1% of the time when I just want to chill in something different, the MKIV filled that role for me. It had enough module space to have everything I wanted, had a better design then the other Cobra, and being slow and sluggish doesn't bother me in the slightest.

I mean, it's so bad not even perfect engineering can save it but...oh well =]
 
A nice touch, and a great idea to keep the number of code bases down (no one wants three game options). That said, I also echo the "SRV stuck" sentiment; I've never used it but I know it's ruddy useful.
 
Excellent news.
However, what about using the "Load Non-Horizons" to get out of glitchy SRV situations ? I hope there is another solution provided or Support will have a LOT of admin to do every day.
Then again, one could take the time to actually learn how to handle the SRV and avoid sticky situations.
 
I don't have a problem with you guys making it free, but instead of a azure paint job how about horizons owners get a Clipper with retractable drive pods (landable on medium pads). Just saying...
 
Excellent news - Simplifying the Sales proposition ahead of the Christmas push / Odyssey release.
I would have commented that it would have been a good opportunity to give everyone (PC and Xbox late joiners and ALL PS4 commanders) the Cobra MkIV (further simplifying the code) but people further up the thread have already got there.

Wont turn up my nose at free paint jobs - thanks
 
“All ships currently available in the game”

does that list by chance include fleet carriers? It would be awesome to have this on an fc
 
I thought they would include Horizons content when buying Odyssey but this is even better, although I already have Horizons after buying the Commanders Edition when it was on offer on PS4 for something like £25 in 2017. The paint jobs are a nice addition :) I have a few friends who will be happy with this news as they stopped playing because they couldn't land on planets and didn't have the cash at the time to buy Horizons. Hopefully this will get them playing again.
