Python needs a nerf
- Thread starter raok
- Start date
It's bigger than a type 7 too so would kind of be strange that it had less space.
When the title said needs a nerf I thought this would be about something different than cargo space.
Me I'm a little annoyed that my new asp has to land on a bigger pad than my previous cobra. Sure it's taller but there is no way it's wider than the cobra.
My only guess would be the tonnage, smaller pad can't take the weight?

Yes but anyone can buy one....so it's not unfair....
I still think moving the T7 to medium pads makes more sense...
It'll be interesting to see what bigger ships get introduced and what thier tonnage and pad requirements are...we have very little to compare between right now.

Good call on the height, I hadn't thought the height would impact anything as the ship fits through the slot and could in theory fit onto a medium pad on an outpost, but if the shipyard/outfitting requirements dictate a large pad because of the height that's fair enough....a shame, but fair enough.
As for the python, I totally agree, it's a great ship, good cargo versus pad size, good in combat, very expensive to buy and run....a great ship to aim for so no changing it please!!
It's an Asp / T7 combo for me right now but it has to be a Python / T9 combo at some point, just not sure if I'll want to trade in my Asp

As has been said previously, anyone can buy the very expensive Python.
One of the ways to earn the Python in the Type 7 is to trade and trade and trade then do some more trading.
When you have earned the credits and you fly it, then you will know it was worth all the effort.
This is a the best ship so far and was well worth the effort to earn it.
Just your thinking is wrong.
Yes the type 7 to me is a Medium ship and should be able to land at outposts but it is not and never can be a 3 times the cost Python, thankfully.
Or should the Sidewinder be upgraded with more cargo space and call it a type 6 or 7 or 9.
The Ships are what they are, enjoy the differences.

Is this a cry out from a WOW player.....??! Nerf this, nerf that...... blahh blahh.... What you're really tryingto say is... "Devs, I'm so poo at this game, can you make it easier for me.... please!", "Like in WoW they made it so easy I can play whilst I'm sleeping, with one button pressed on my 1337 keyboard........" (wipes nose)
God, when I see that word it, sends shivers down my spine!! I do hope, the Devs don't listen to such talk!

Surely if it is in a noncompetittive matter (such as ability to carry cargo), nerfing a ship would not make it easier for the OP if flying another ship, and would in fact make it harder if the OP is flying the ship?
It's a bit sucky if every ship that is more expensive than the previous is just universally better.
Still though, the Python is supposed to be more of a multipurpose vessel, and it is quite a lot more expensive than the Type 7, so I think it would make sense to give it enough internal space to carry a lot of cargo.
We're probably also going to get more combat-oriented ship in the 50 mCr range in the future.
Do you even own a python? the upkeep costs are insane..... if it wasn't for the cargo space the ship would have no way to sustain itself efficiently .Also,did you know if you upgrade a python with A modules it becomes too heavy to fly laden more then 10-13 light years?I have to balance the ship between a trader/fighter (I'm not flying defencless in open play) and can hold 256 cargo with a max jump of 14 light years with around 1-3 modules(not even the best ones because the weight increases by alot every time you upgrade) that are above what you get in a normal python. (that 5 million fsd cap doesnt help either and limits the hell out of you)

Crying as little girls.
Go and buy better ship, or learn to fly.
Most of them are scared when they see python, dont have and dont flied it.
Interesting comments, and sad that so many trolls, but...
Sure, Type 7 could also be a medium freighter, this would be a fix as well, probably.
I had Type 7 for trading, I sold it and bought Python for trading. Soon I noticed that it was OP.
FYI, I have now Type 9 for trading. Type 9 seems to be in balance.
Python should be expensive, I agree on that, it could be double as expensive to fix/fuel as it is now. It is way too good to be this cheap
Buy price could be also higher, if the stats are going to be like those are now. I am not sure which one is better, Anaconda or Python, but at least Python is way cheaper. There are probably many who are never going to buy Anaconda even, because Python is OP.
Well, I do not have my Anaconda yet, so have to admit that I might be wrong in this.
edit. One more thing...
Everyone understands that at some point everyone has money to everything. So the question is, are we going to have OP multipurpose ships, or should there be greater variety of useful ships in the end?
Expensive multipurpose Python, maybe best in the combat and extremely good in trading, best medium sized trader. Maybe these "best" roles could be shared for different ships. And if Python is going to be best in combat, everyone is going to have one what ever are the costs.
The best combat ship does not need cargo at all, everyone will have one at some point anyway.
And if the cargo space is like it is atm., as a multipurpose ship, I do not see any reason why it should be as good as it is in combat.
Or well... I am really waiting to see medium and large, full purpose combat ships.

Me too, I think having more than one ship, one for a specific purpose...right now I have a Viper, Asp and T7 and am happy with the combo....
I am awaiting the fer-de-lance with major anticipation, this may be the step up from the Asp I want and the Python may not fit in the picture anymore if that is so...A Fer-De-lance and a Type-9....Mmmmmmmm, we shall have to wait and see
I am assuming the Fer-De-Lance is smaller than the python, still a medium pad ship but less cargo...? It's not bigger is it?
If you think about Python, it has better shields than Anaconda, more cargo space than Large Freighter Type 7 and competitive amount of guns vs large ships + medium size and agility.
Medium sized combat ship should be better than Python in combat, and may then break the balance. So not sure how the Fer-De-Lance is going to do it.
In my opinion, the issue is a bit similar when comparing Anaconda and Type 9. Anaconda as a multipurpose ship has almost as much cargo space as full purpose freighter Type 9.
