Paint, paintjobs, Livery and Decals discussion thread.

[Evilroco]

I would be underwhelmed if the skull was the day one/founders decal , I'm sure whoever spent 10 minutes knocking it up could have done better, hell I've done better with warm yellow liquid in the snow

 

[Helvellyn]

MB said in the server patch notes that it's not implemented yet. I'm hoping its a classic Elite symbol. Would look pretty classy on my Viper.

I would so love that, but perhaps that should best reserved for people who get to Elite.

 

[FaolGlas]

How about a big 'D' and a '1' in crayon style font? Heh. I too am hoping it will turn out to be something cooler than the skull, which is not really in tune with my character, but I still use it, because... well I like having anything that is just a little exclusive.

 

[Cmdr Thrudd]

I'm actually quite surprised that there aren't more decals and skins already available considering that the funding model of the game is heavily dependent on the cosmetic store I would have thought having a wide selection ready for launch would be a priority. I can't imagine the artists are part of the bug fixing team that's been so busy in the run up to release.

Paint jobs, merc edition

So I was a beta backer and as such benefit from the mercenary edition paint jobs, I was just wondering which paint jobs are actually included with this? I cant find anywhere that lists them, thanks for any info.

 

[DYSEQTA]

It's a Mercenary paint job that is available in the Livery section of Outfitting. Its been available for every ship I've bought so far.

It's based on the same style for each ship and is primarily green.

None so far. Promises were for last week.

I popped into the out-fitters last night, to my surprise was the option to place a Skull on me bonnet of my Cobra III with its orange flame finish, looks cool shame I cant see it flying into the station???

 

[Zallibik]

Thanks for the fast reply's much appreciated.

Incorrect.

There is a Mercenary Green/Silver paintjob for the Eagle, Sidewinder, Viper and Cobra in the outfitters. That's the unique skin pack. I am assuming that one (with the same style) will be made available for all the other ships as well but don't quote me on that.

 

[Skip Intro]

That is not the unique skin pack promised for the Mercenary Edition. Also missing is the "Day One" decal. Don't tell me that the skull is it because it isn't.

I've given up holding my breath for ther "loads of other digital goodies" also promised.

 

[DDC]

Yes, it is. It's even called 'Mercenary'. My friend who didn't pre-order doesn't have the Mercenary skins or the skull livery.

Opiton to toggle paint repair off

Quite simply, I would like the option to toggle automatic paint repair off. I would enjoy seeing my ship's experience and wear. This would be a point of pride for me having a ship last long enough that the paint has degraded from reliable usage. Plus, as a fellow cargo repossession professional, I feel this would make me look like a real pro at my chosen venture.

The backer decal code

Hi.

Has anybody gotten the backer decal code from the KS pledge packages, that was supposed to be delivered by email? I haven't.

Has there been any official statement regarding this?

 

[Queebatron]

So was the promised "Day One" decal that skull thingy?

That's our only choice? What if one isn't a pirate? I thought it would be something like the Elite logo or D1 or something, but all I see available is that droopy skull graphic. Am I missing something?

 

[IceFire122]

I cannot quote official word, but the previous discussion was, that the skull decal is not the Day One decal. Apparently, the Day One decal was not ready for day one.

 

[Clav]

Am I missing something?

The many other threads on this very subject.

 

[Sargon]

I think we should all get a "Waited for my Day-1 decal until after Xmas" decal, once it becomes available.

 

[Kramster]

I want a 'My other ships an Anaconda' decal

 

[G.T]

Apparently, the Day One decal was not ready for day one.
