Except for VR players.
ANNOUNCEMENT New Lead Community Manager - Arthur Tolmie
- Thread starter Arthur Tolmie
- Start date
tbh an adult should be able to understand that ps4 support came one full year later, the days of the cobra 4 and pre-orders in general had long gone and even the base game and horizons were frequently on sale. there has been no paid dlc since so no opportunity to make an equivalent offer has ever existed. that's just life, you may not like it but you sure can understand that. you could have a chance with odyssey, though, so go for it. good luck!

Even though I am not a fan of the Cobra Mark IV, I think it would be good for FD to open it up again... potentially as a reward for pre-ordering Odyssey, just like it was originally a reward for pre-ordering Horizons.
Spoken like a true self appointed milk monitor, though I and many others understood that from a long long time ago, so unless you've had a private chat with the lead designer I'll wait for the answer from our esteemed and newly appointed Lead Community Manager Arf, as after all, things change over time, especially when the table has been empty for such a period.
Though in all reality I don't care as I don't own a PS4 copy of the game, in fact, I don't even have access to a PS4, I do have access to and have* briefly owned a Cobra MKIV on the PC but it went the way of most ships... the bin, the Clipper's the only gal for me...
*I believe, my memory is not what it once was for unimportant things (no offense intended to the guy/guyette that created the ship)
Yes would love to get my hands on the IV!!!
OK then, as we're doing requests... about this ADS/FSS thing.
Could the panel please rethink the support for an adjusted (made sensible) ADS system that so that the many playe.... you know the rest!

Welcome Arthur!
Can Frontier confirm this statement made on the Odyssey Steam page? Is Frontier saying Horizons is not necessary?
That's a rather uncharitable way to label someone you don't know right off the bat. I was just providing the answer as to why it isn't available as it seemed it wasn't really known. Of course if FD want to change the deal and make another 'limited time offer', then whatever.
Welcome aboard, and grats on the role, Arthur. Good luck with the community, they're not a bad bunch.
I can see the logic of offering a similar reward in relation to Odyssey but offering the Cobra 4 would just cause too many arguments. A Type 5 or Type 8 or a medium pad ship from Saud Kruger or Gutamaya or even something from lore or game history would be a much better idea.
Yeah, I get kinda 'grainy' when I read the same things over and over, the points you made were 'old' and they'd been done to the death, we all know about the unique situation of the ship and there's been many threads on it with players often metering out the points you quoted to be quoted from a quote, it's tiresome to be honest and unless there is 'NEW' information... like that asked for by the poster it's pointless quoting the situation as it was in the past.
Now, were you to call me a cantankerous old git I would understand, but uncharitable... well I never!
It was to query if there was a change, as things can change.
Exactly like for Xbox players, when FDev reopened the offer after "closing it exclusively" for PC players, to see if PS4 players can get the Cobra MK4. Yes even 3 years later, the gesture would still be appreciated.
At the time it was made available for Xbox they said it was to give fair parity to all cmdrs, but PS4 has never had that parity.

With expeditions on hold because Carriers cannot refuel in deep space without Tritium, we are all feeling stranded.
Now would a good time for the communication you promised.

Thanks Arf, our re-fuelers will be looking forward to it
Amen to that!
The Broken Limpet Initiative and her expedition are also awaiting your response.
