On the fleet carrier models in store

[Kamiyoda]

yamiks is already doing his job about offline upkeep. But this certain topic wasnt mentioned enough yet.

Apparently the community disagrees as the rest of them stopped mentioning it. Sorry you missed that train I guess?

I guess most people will buy one engine colour, but might get several PJs / shipkits - so they price to get those repeat orders. After all, they can push out a new PJ every week - but they'll soon run out of colours

Hmm... possibly. I think i'll just stick to 1 of each type of cosmetic.

But which FC shape to buy.... decisions decisions.... I'm tempted by the nautilus. that round end speaks to me.

I remember seeing a film about a guy whose round end spoke to him. If I recall correctly, the theme music was the very same music from "Grange Hill".

"Plenty of people want to support game" - If people would want to support they would buy stuff anyway. Changing paintjobs every week or something.
How about having possibility to buy anaconda only and others with arx only? Plenty of people want to support game after all.

When people confuse outer looks with functionality things go wrong. You propose to buy functionally different things different ways. With the purchasably classes, you still get the same functionality. Essentially, you buy a skipkit

And don't forget Star Citizen!

I would like to think he excluded that deliberately

and this is videogame, glamour is a part of it

It's a free update. No cost.

The only place they ask for money is for cosmetics, which are entirely optional and have no effect on the performance of the carrier.

And even those you can get by just playing the game and saving up your ARX.

I think it's extremely fair.

Uh-oh, I hope you didn't just wake the LEP-er colony

I think the system map should show hollow planets after a honk.

Noone is confusing outer look with functionality. Yes these are shipkits (sort of, diffrence is much greater imo), as i said - if they have whole models ready - it would be so much more cool to have variety of carriers. Isnt it cool that fat type 10 handles diffrently than anaconda, not just looking diffrent?

Ps:
Codger, remember You have to buy game first. Its not expensive now, but was released some time ago. Ofc they need money for upkeep and fdevs, but statement " The only place they ask for money is for cosmetics" is false.

<pulls pin out> with 4 different fleet carrier designs it makes you wonder how the heck Frontier will deck out all the ship interiors..."Fire in the hole" <runs for cover>

either they wont, or there will be just inner internals available that will be similar to all 4

 

[kaelys]

oh yeah, poor little fdev, just made 6 other games with Elite money. lets throw some more cash at them

Then don't buy ARX. Problem solved.

 

[Cosmo]

Yeah the 2 other FC models should be unlockable by grinding or some in-game achievement. The paintjobs can be paid cosmetics.

i never bought any ever since they introduced them.. but then i barely played this game since they announced maintenance mode

 

[Bottom Hat]

this is not about skins anymore, i can live with that, do you not understand the point im trying to make with this post ?

No.

Maintenance mode was about 7 hours long. I didn't play it during this time either, mainly due to having a job.

I seem to have missed that announcement, I'll have to go through all of the Dev posts...
(Why do I have a nagging doubt it was never announced, but is just a fabrication?)
