Someone please explain to me the purpose of the FDL?

Seriously....


Its price is just ludicrous.

The only person who could afford this ship is a trader.... but its not a ship for a trader so why would they? Its priced at double a python which is what a trader would buy to fill the role of outpost to station armed trading.

Is this like the Orca? a ship built for a purpose/role that isn't in the game yet? I can only assume so but am left confused as to why your spending resources and development time on ships no one will use unless their a fanboy of that ship. Its not practical.

I am a fan of kick-starter projects but seriously maybe you need a publisher to remind you of reality. You have 6-8 months to make this game into something that can be mentioned in the same conversation as Star Citizen and right now Robert's looks like a genus.


Wake up or become irrelevant.

I find the price of Ferraris quite disgusting too. I don't moan at them though, I simply buy a cheaper car and use that.

That's a terrible analogy. Trading is a career that's open to anybody, you just have to like it. The point being made is that a combat focused ship is being pitched at people who prefer trading as their profession. To extend your dreadful analogy, it would be akin to making Ferraris only available to over 75's who've never had a speeding ticket in their lives.

I'd imagine most people aren't stuck in only one profession in this game. Lots of people like both trading and combat. So a trader who can amass that kind of fortune might well want an over-priced combat ship. The ferrari analogy isn't that far off since this seems like a ship to show off one's wealth more than anything.
