The Python doesn't feel right!

Just got interdicted by one and was enjoying an epic battle with it when my immersion was shattered by my wife telling me the baby needed bathing! Anyway the point is during the enjoyable tussle I couldn't help feeling the Python was all wrong. I imagined it as slow and lumbering, a poor mans Anaconda. Well armed and armoured, but certainly not something that would dance rings round my Viper! To be honest with it's manoeuvrability and weapons I couldn't help thinking that this is what the Fer de Lance should be like when they add it.

Will they change it? Should they change it, or is everyone happy with the way it is?
 
I've not flown one but I personally think its cooler than an Anaconda. I also had a tussle with one and managed to destroy it but it did surprise me how maneuverable it was, thought not enough to convince me that it should change. I hope to get one someday!

+1 for funny story lol. Babies ruining immersion!
 
Had a fight in my freEgle against an NPC in Python just an hour ago. It's possible to outmaneuver it but turret and gimballed guns on that thing is a nightmare. It's so small deadzone around that ship! I won only because my enemy was Novice :(
 
I'd actually want a few bigger ships to be nimble. If almost all the big ships are just lumbering hulks why cripple yourself in combat with a slow moving target. I hope the Python can actually move well. If not why get it? It'll just be the poor man's/woman's Anaconda.
 
You got that right, this need fixing. It's nimble as Viper or Cobra.. should be slightly more nimble than Anaconda. Agreed with Fer de Lance statement (if we are speaking about manoevrability).
