New ship: Panther Clipper

[Dillon Fallon]

It did? What have i been playing this past few years?

O7

A game with an amortised expansion. I've not seen any sign that FDev are doing anything significant with Odyssey in the near or far future.

Although they can prove me wrong with that whenever they want.

Odyssey introduced many new galeplay options, im doing plenty of on foot stuff, its not even in A&E as fare as im concerned.

If FD does implement atmospheric planets, they'll have to.

Water Worlds first! I want a Moray Starboat. I could definitely see it having a unique SRV, a deployable mini-sub.

 

[Andy Gee]

It should be called Toad Clipper instead, considering its shape.

The toad connotation is perfectly fine for me!

I always thought the name Anaconda, Cobra, FDL, etc. were snakes.

Toad ate a Fuel Rat.

Don't worry, he only gets the fuel and than spits out the empty rat again. Fuel limpets take too long for him...he's busy building a coriolis.

That is totally correct.

 

[Frankymole]

Whose initial statement? The visual images of the clipper released by FDEV certainly don’t indicate that it’s anywhere near twice the length of the Type 9.

Brother Sabathius's. They guy who estimated its cargo capacity at 1600.

Seconded.

If they don't want to go the Subnautica route, they can just say that water worlds with life are permit-locked so you can't land on (in) them...

Careful you don’t do it more than once, might be considered griefing

Once the Chonka Modules kick in, everything is food.

 

[wrmiller]

Indeed they won't...

But this is FD, and the word is "Balance", allegedly.

It will likely carry just a little more than a T9 / Cutter stripped out to just haul (for balance, of course)
Be slower than the T9 (see above)
Have a massively under-rated PP / Distro (same)

Unlikely to be anything even approaching the beast it was in the earlier games, to save the inevitable complaints of being OP or P2W on release...

If you are correct, I won't be buying it. I've had enough of the emasculated/castrated ships from these guys.

Since nobody seems to have mentioned it: Crew of 4, that's a new first.

Which is certainly something I'd have no problem being proven wrong for.

Ross 154 - Scirocco station please.

 

[Shurimal]

'Conda, 'Vette, Cutter and Crusader all got 4 crew seats with Odyssey.

My bad... shows how much I use multicrew.

Not many do...

 

[Jinx Chrome]

If multicrew only had visible crewmates... Something which really bothers me and there's no explanation because a teammate can actually sit in the gunner's chair. But maybe... just maybe the bridge of the Panther is the beginning of something bigger.
