Playable F63 Condor confirmed?

EAGLE 5 · Jun 15, 2015

Also let's not forget in the last trailer (the super slo mo one) you clearly see an F63 fly out of the Anaconda's internal hangar in the bottom. But yes that would be a welcome addition along with the Imperial Fighter.

The Condor looks cool, but it's a light fighter. People replace light fighters quickly, because it's a noob ship. It could be useful for close quarters combat in CQC though.

Exactly. It serves no purpose in the existing combat model.

With not that many ships left to come (10, right?) I am pretty sure that when you guys get to chose a 10k CR condor is likely not to be the wisest choice.

You're right, I was so distracted salivating over the big 'uns in that clip 1:12 onwards I forgot the thread was re the lowly condor. But yeah, not many more due it seems so when's my free tester's ship coming??? Crosses fingers it's not the condor then

Can't imagine what you would do with one, very definition of a tin can.

I saw an Anaconda launching a Sidewinder in a trailer months ago and am still waiting for mine to do the same. I don't believe trailers anymore.........

The voice? Did not sound British? That preview looks awesome. Cant wait to play the game!!!

Voice actor who played Blackwall in Dragon Age Inquisition I'm pretty sure

I really hope we get the condor and the Imperial Fighter (Hunter?). Also, did anyone notice the "Returning to Standard Flight Controls" when he exits Hyperspace? Are we getting changes to hyperspace as well? Hmm.... (THARGOIDS?)

I just watched the trailer again, there's actually a sequence where we can see the Condor Cockpit:

View attachment 44585

Cockpit looks nice, but the Condor has a hud problem: "ship name ship name ship name"

Condor? you mean the unshielded federal fighter? sounds like insurance screen simulator to me.

Awesome, but only if we also get fly-able Imperial Fighters too.

We will see, but the trailer is about the Federation. Maybe that sport is not good enough for the Empire? Or the Imperial fleet does not allow use of it's ships for other purpose, while greedy Fed corporations are OK with using it for non-military purpose?

I hope not, what i hope for is a modified version with FSD.

Edit: Forgot Quote.

So you can flight and be destroyed after 1 hit? I hope we don't have an FSD version, this ships is not made for that it has no reason to jump far from a base ship, giving it a FSD would be a nonsense. What i hope though is flying it as a patrol around a Federal ship

Lol, yes. I d asume that they will probably be very maneuverable, speedy and with much higher than usual turning rates. Will hopefully be a pain to get one off your back when piloted by a decent human opponent...
