I didn't get a free Viper MKIV - was a beta backer too.

I'm confused, in the newsletter #92 you worte : who backed our original Kickstarter at Beta level or above.... and not Beta Premium or standard....it is rather imprecise isn't it?

it's not a big problem , this ship is not very expensive

Glad I'm not the only one that hasn't received their Beta Viper, seen plenty o Cobra MkIV's to buy.

"For a limited time all existing Elite: Dangerous players will receive a £10 loyalty discount plus the exclusive Cobra Mark IV ship when ordering the Elite Dangerous: Horizons through the Frontier Store. Discount will be automatically applied at checkout. The Cobra Mark IV will be added to your account when Elite Dangerous: Horizons Lands." This was the exact text that advertised the pre-order Beta when I bought it.

horizons deployed: No email saying "sorry we can't do it", No email update saying "it's not happening"

Hmm. I'm pretty sure that this breaches some of my consumer rights under UK trading standards legislation.

So. Guess what. I want my damned ship Frontier. Now. I paid for the beta access. I want the stated goods I was promised.

You sound like a child .. get over it, chances are this is jsut an oversight on FD's part.

You get the ability to access the Cobra Mk IV in game. You still have to find and buy it in game.

Well, me too been a premium beta backer haven t got the new ship.
I hope they fix it soon.

Cheers

Hi I'm a Kickstarter Premium Beta Backer with LEP.

I got the Viper MK IV located at Barnards star.
The Black Friday Skin (For my Cobra MK III anyway)

The MKIV appeared as a red stored ship icon on the Galaxy map.
I believe there is an option in the Galaxy map that hides stored ships. Check for that.

If anyone who should have the ship and it's still not appearing. I'd put a support ticket in.

Hope this helps.

I bought the mercenary edition, I don't have a the free viper but I guess that makes sense.
But what about this? one of the perks of buying the mercenary edition.

"Beta Now includes a lifetime 25% discount on ship insurance PLUS free access to one of 5 new ship designs post game release."

Are these the 1.5 ships? is this the Cobra 4?

The free ship is the Viper Mk IV, so if you didn't get one, well stand in line.
