REQUEST: Cobra MKIV - Skins (paint jobs) & Ship Kits + Improved Stats (buff) + PS4 & XBOX Players

Dear Frontier,

I'd like to make a request for more skins for the Cobra MKIV please. Currently, I have the Black Friday paint job, and also the Chrome (and the military pack). However, in comparison to several other ships the Cobra MKIV is severely lacking as respects the variety of available paint jobs. Also, there are no ship kits available at all. I'd have expected something to be released for the MKIV - preferably, I'd like to see the Raider kit released for the MKIV.

I'm aware that there are only limited amounts of players who have access to the Cobra MKIV, and this is likely a reason why it isn't getting much attention - little prospect of many sales. However, as Frontier gave this ship as a 'reward' to certain players, it seems to me that Frontier should give a little attention to the MKIV.

Also, I'd like to request that the MKIV receives a buff as it seems to me it is greatly disadvantaged - unfairly, in my opinion - in comparison to many other ships (and a few ships receiving buffs, or soon going to receive buffs). Greater speed would be nice - perhaps a reduced hull weight. Also, an extra utility slot would be lovely.

Thanks very much.

I should have stated that I, for one, wouldn't mind Frontier making the Cobra MKIV more widely available to others - perhaps as a possible purchase through the Game Extras. Or even as a reward for players who continue to back the game now - much like those who were already rewarded with it. Such steps would hopefully attract more players to the ship.

It certainly doesn't seem fair that PS4 players, and possibly XBOX players, have never had the option to get hold of this ship simply because the game was available on the PC only at the time (I think...). Cheers.

Pro: Make it available to everyone, it's been long enough, if you don't want it, no one says you have to buy it, if you already have it, then this wouldn't matter. Not like folks who can use one are running around sporting it off.

Con: I'd be concerned about buying it in the shop. As long as it doesn't start a regular trend to get ships from the shop, just this once, since you had to be under certain conditions anyway, I'd be O.K. with just this one.

I agree - I'd prefer it was made available to all (but also improved a little).
