I just got back from an extended exploration trip in my Anaconda. Over a month of flying in it and the first thing I choose to do when I get back is get started on my Vette grind by doing some combat missions in Rhea and so I switched from ExploraConda to my "Heavy" (lol) Combat Challenger. Its the first time I have flown my Challenger in about 2 months. When I went to launch I hit the vertical thrusters hard (because you have to in order to get the Conda to go anywhere) and my Challenger launched itself off the pad like the space shuttle and bounced off the roof of the station. I proceeded to laugh my butt off for a good 2mins. I had completely forgotten how much easier it was to fly the smaller ships relative to the huge ones. I had grown so used to my lumbering beast of an Anaconda that I had to relearn how to fly a smaller ship. I spent a good 10mins outside the station practicing my boost turns and my maneuvering lol
So can anyone else think of any other experiences in the game that are more jarring than switching ships like this?
Or better yet does anyone have any similar stories to tell?
