This is exactly why I bought the MNB DBX paint.

Has anyone given any thought about what ship you’ll be using in Odyssey for land-based missions?
- Thread starter Afterglow
- Start date
Everyone's aesthetic is different. I like my brick.
Yeah, there are many unknown variables. That's why I have thrown in a few whatifs in my T-10 ground effect prototype build. Might even go for Alpha to try it out.
I think a niche of small ships with good jump range become popular among commanders who want to role play a Mandalorian type character.
Cobra. I love my Orange Cobra.
Or my Krait Mk2.
Or my Imperial Star Destroyer.... oops, wrong game.

What, no drop ship? You don’t even need shields, that thing has serious hull strength.
I'll be using my Type 10. I'm not one for sneaking around and being subtle. I can just imagine the chatter amongst the security guards on some distant world that I have to do a stealth mission at: "Hey Fred? Ya Joe? Was there there always a big fortress over there behind the outhouse? Nah, I don't think so, Joe. Maybe we should take a peek....."
I'm thinking of flying an eagle.
Partly because it's a fast ship, partly because it'll fit in small pads, assuming Odyssey has small pads on the ground, but mostly because when
I get out of the ship for the first time I can shout "The Eagle has Landed."

Greetings,
OP what are Odyssey land based missions? We don't know. Are you as a single player going to run around in a spiffy new environment suit with a possibly a hand held version of a rail gun (hopefully purchased with ARX not added to our 120 limit of ship stored toys) to take out say a planetary ++ secure system? Could you even take out two Sentinels guarding a crashed satellite you come across on a planet versus a SRV that does this well? Are you going to have an Elite NPC pilot flying your ship while you run around for cover?
When I say you it is not about the OP but about any player going alone in Odyssey without some assistance. Now we come back to multi-crew, squadrons, friends and others on popular comm sites like Discord and TeamSpeak. Have you made alliances?
Those initial videos of Odyssey showed two players walking around with a lot of overhead ship support. Who is the other player? Who are flying those other ships? Frontier is not going to give us the answers.
To max out all the Engineers one had to play a little of every play style in the game. Many hated that. Maybe when Odyssey arrives one will have to play with others to be effective. Just my guess but if correct the ship you fly won't matter. Prepare for Odyssey...
Regards

My beloved beluga, fitted por exploration with fun, and carrying 4 SRVs
If one day we are going to be able to land in SLFs, also ready with one hangar for them.
I hope some day also I can be seeing the galaxy through the glazed roof of my Beluga's Promenade

Heck yeah. I'll be primarily using my chromed Mamba to get myself around in style.
I'll either be using my Cobra MkIV for anything requiring a smaller ship, my newly engineered Crusader and its SLF for more dangerous scenarios that the Cobra can't handle, with everything else falling to the Goldenmember.
Every small hardpoint on the Cobra and Crusader has a G4 high capacity, overload munition, advanced missile with an ammunition count of 15/116 per rack, with 16/128 G5s on the Goldenmember.
Anyone who happens to be outside when I start raining justice is going to have a very bad day.

Day one bug..."only left leg works and everybody's ship iRregardless of model reverts to a sidewinder, Azure paint jobs display grayscale, hud is still orange, multi-crew (old bug returns) and t poses abroad".
