FDev in Diamondback Scout Conspiracy!

[nosleepdemon]

A little over a year ago I posted this thread about the Diamondback Scout, and the complete lack of love that it has received. To date, the venerable Diamondback Scout has not received a single paint job or kit beyond the basic paint packs all ships get by default. This poor ship is so maligned, that my posting in the aformentioned thread got it locked due to "necro", which in itself is rather bizarre since now there are two threads instead of one.

I can only assume, as any rational person would, that there is a widescale conspiracy to discourage Diamondback Scout pilots from pimping their beautiful ships that reaches all the way to the upper echelons of Frontier Developments. Why else would this ship not even receive its uglier brother's ship kit pieces as so much as hand-me-downs?

Please, folks, let's draw attention to this conspiratorial discrimination against myself and the five other cmdrs who fly the DBS!

 

[CMDR Big Mike]

The fire rises, brother. Seize the means of production!

 

[sgurr]

I love the DBS, have my votes for more stuff for it.

 

[Vasco Sapien]

As self appointed president of the Viper mk4 appreciation society, I offer my number in a sympathy strike.

 

[Schmack]

Love the Dbx, needs better scoop. Mine is pinkish

 

[CMDR Cknarf]

Buy the Black Friday paint pack this thanksgiving and it’s perfect.

Please don’t ruin the glorious Scout by tacking on a bunch of useless body panels.

Spoiler

I SAW WHAT YOU DID TO THOSE POOR PYTHONS AND VULTURES, YOU TASTELESS SWINES

 

[babelfisch]

Agreed, the Cobra definitely needs more paintjobs.

I do indeed run midnight black on my DBS, and appreciate the two size 1 slots it was given. But. It needs more!

 

[DNA-Decay]

What is a DBS?

 

[[Diplomacy] Carnegie]

What is a DBS?

An Asp Scout with the wings folded in.

Here you go

 

[EXE Sasser]

You're forgetting the asp scout as well. This ship needs love.

Would be nice to see the Asp MK2 Mentioned in the description of the Scout... Or explorer one of the two

 

[Cmdr Aeries Hunter]

And the Anaconda. There hasn't been a new paint job in hours.

on another note I have closed my wallet till Fdev actually announce something about what is in development. Why do we have to rely on leaks and job ads to find out what is happening?

 

[dekot]

Did they fix the cockpit?

 

[Zevatron]

Did they fix the cockpit?

No, and it drives me crazy! I reported it on the issue tracker a couple of weeks back, please add your comments to get this fixed:

[CMDR Big Mike]

They need to release a ship kit that adds a rotor on top to complete the attack helicopter look

 

[dekot]

I already submitted multiple bug reports and received replies from mods or devs or whoever they are that they'll look into it. Waste of time.

 

[ShimEnki]

What is a DBS?

Its a ship in ED that looks like a large cockroach. But that's a good thing as their power as a "totem animal" is incredible.

Actually it's a Disclosure and Barring Service provided by employers to do background checks on potential employees. Crime, credit score etc


XDD

Sorry couldn't resist

I don't think NPC can buy paintkit so that's why!
