It better not be. If it is, I'll lock them all in with me along with a flipchart of Powerplay ideas and general tweaks, not to mention a whole carosel of slides outlining why the racing paint needs removal via sustained plasma fire. After a whole day of lectures FD will understand the error.
Panther Clipper? Pit-Con.

No thank you very much, I remember it was a chore to fill the crew (that's where I learned the expression "good riddance")
For the clipper?
Yeah i mean, i think it'd be HILARIOUS to have to wait for a full 11 crew members, but i'm talking like one or two maybe.
Realistically speaking, except for the SLF, there are no crew functions. You can't even have an NPC watch the radar to warn you of incoming hostiles.
C'mon, that is not a Jaeger from Pacific Rim! It just 2 (3 if we lucky) times bigger than Cutter/T-9.
Even biggest truck IRL is
Hey i'm just working from the old requirements in Frontier! Many an hour wasted waiting for crew...
oooh how many ARX for that?Come on people, this is just carriers getting the ability to land...
O7
I am pretty much aware that the PC is probably the most requested ship, although I don't understand why anyone apart from players doing serious colonisation would want to fly such a brick. But no matter, you still won't arrive at 'all' no matter how many threads you link.There is no need to get upset
Panther clipper please
Well, one thing is definitely missing from colonization - huge ship like Panther Clipper with 1500t capacity. Now it takes 30 round trips with cutter just to offload carrier full of goods to colonization ship. It would be nice if this is less tedious.forums.frontier.co.uk
Griffin or Panther Clipper
Dear Mr Braben and fdev we are ready to pay 50eu for any , hauling needs help in ED plsDoing colonization solo is a testament that we need cutter/type 9 alternatives with 1k+ cargo capacity and more improvement
Lets be honest, no one would say no to a 2k+ cargo ship but lets start with 1k. There are other things. When we are taking cargo from carrier I shouldn't hold the button for 10 mins to take it, you already have a system where when you press it a second or two it speeds up but for some reason its...New Ship - Missed Opportunity
With the amount of freight work going on for Trailblazers, I can't help but feel that a massive opportunity has been missed by releasing the Medium multi-role Corsair, instead of a Large class new freighter (a cut down Panther Clipper, anyone?) People would be throwing money at FDEV right now...Double cargo rack space please.
how about... doubling cargo rack space? eg Class 6 would hold 128t instead of 64t, Class 5 would hold 64t instead of 32 etc. Pleeeeease? with the vast amount of sanity breaking runs we have to make to build some of this Colony stuff, not only would this make Type 9/Clippers more optimal, it...
I could fill the page with these type of threads
You still set yourself up for disappointment with your high expectations that it 'is the clipper' and 'disappointing' if it isn't what you want.
This one, 1.
Panther clipper you say? <perk>
<<<rushes down to the junkyard of old space craft parts and unpacks the extra large plasma accelerator.... then remembers how unneeded that gun was when you could just load up with shields and make your own way to the destination... regardless of things in the way such as pirates, the imperial navy, police , and the side of the stations....

<<<when grandpa landed his on Ross 128 , it caused a large wobble in the planets rotational axis

I don't think 'serious' colonisation is the prerequisite here. Any colonisation effort would benefit greatly from improved cargo space.
To your point, a modern panther clipper would have had little use outside of maximising trade loops - that is until colonisation was introduced.
I think giving players a game mechanic that massively utilises the would-be cargo capacity of a fan-favourite ship re-make is quite a smart move.
Agree 100%!
Also I would slap mining lasers on that baby SO fast and make a fortune on every load of Platinum lol.
I don't think so, because the front thruster is actually not aligned with the back thruster, it's more on the outside. The ship (including the thrusters) seems to be wider in the front, if you look careful enough.
