Does the Fleet Carrier look like a Megaship, or a Kraken? It looks like a Megaship, which have been in game since before the Kraken was
Does the Kraken exist yet?

Ah.
All I know is I’ll want my own. Space hermit and almost see no one on xbox live to even form a consistent wing. Bad enough storing modules in ships by the hundreds around founders, hopefully this thing comes with a couple thousand storage space.
Sounds like someone needs to have a fire sale and get rid of massive junk piles in stores.
How else do you expect to store so many of every type of power play module for future ship builds? Can't be allied to all at once anyways. Prismatics are the worst, I'll come back to them and probably finish with Asling when I can get 50 T9's and 50 clippers for 100 of each T7 and T8 shield. For now I use sidewinders. vipers and vultures for everything else.

And that's about where the resemblance ends?
I dunno, it's hard to tell its full form from the vid, but the only similarity I can see is that it's got a 'big flat top deck' affair with a narrow nose. The deck is pretty much a carrier naval trope though.
That's pretty much all I was saying, there was nothing more to read into it.
And if you want to see a lack of originality in ship design then Star Citizen IIRC has several ships blatantly ripped off from existing designs.

No. DP Sayre is someone else entirely. As I say, in that saga, I was just a messenger.
The fleet carriers take general cues from this mixed with the Sulaco.
I’m pretty sure that top one is concept art for
The millennium falcon! I’m very happy they redesigned it!
It is, its an early Ralph Mcquarrie if I remember right that was used later for the Blockade Runner. From my rough sketches the carriers will be much broader than regular megaships which are more like log shapes (i.e. uniform all along).
Carriers, carriers, yay, great. But is anyone else even slightly concerned about Arx? Did we all just skim over that part? Premium Currency?
I don't know about anyone else, but my experiences with this Premium Currency business... it makes my hackles rise. I can think of far too many times where I've wanted to buy that One Something Neat, and it's 100 Premium Currency, but Premium Currency is only sold in bundles of 1000, leaving me with a bunch of useless Premium Currency, spending far more than that One Something Neat is really worth.
Now maybe Frontier will do things differently, gods know they do most things very differently, so time will tell here.
On the plus side, I was glad to read the bit about items previously sold only in bundles being available as single items... no more 7 other ugly paint jobs to have that one that I actually want.

For some reason I kept reading that as "Millennial Falcon", and have to wonder how effective it would really be, if everybody was the captain.......
It would likely run on crippling student loan debt and the nav computer could barely get through the messy economy created by the previous generation
Much more likely to be powered by free food and good wifi.
With a large amount of memes of the dank mixed in for good measure.
Not sure, but the Deflectors would be impenetrable!
OOPS! I forgot about memes, had you not mentioned them the millenial falcon would never have flown, so congrats sir, you just saved the rebellion.
