I thought it was new ships with every new release discussed but don't remember for 2.6 (might have been Dragonfly and 2 or 3 others), the roadmap was all goodness other than having to wait 9-12 months for my Carrack.

@Grimbli was there a 3.0 slide, or was it my imagination?
It was the same slide as from Gamescom.
I don't think so. SQ42 was right before it.

I thought the 3.0 slide had the Aquila on it..... or was that the 2.6 slide......
Either way, I melted my Explorers package and CCU'd my LTI Freelancer to an Aquila. LTI Aquila FTW!!!!

They may have let them go without saying on 2.6. If I remember, they were shooting for the cat and the herald. 3.0 was on the slide though. They showed the Ursa rover, dragonfly, caterpillar, and the aquilla. So I guess they will be missing the cat on the 2.6 release.

Need to rewatch the stream tomorrow. But, overall was impressed with the Spectrum announcement and work. To me the Demo WAS the SQ42 preview. But also a demo of the PU to come. All I could think of was flying in to survey and start mining on a planet surface only to end up in a firefight with pirate scum trying to take advantage of a planet bound player(s) in FPS mode.
Still concerned about the timeline, I want to play now...not when I start drawing Social Security....lol

3.0 had the caterpillar, Dragonfly, aquila, and rover I though.
I remember the slide now. I didn't get a pick of it. I started capturing as soon as it mentioned ships and features for Rock Raiders.
And even though they mention both Farming and Research, there's no mention of the Endeavor!
Also, the demo had the Aquila and it was a sexy ship! I'm still upgrading mine to a Crucible, but it was sleek.
Yeah man, I can't wait for 3.0. I have an Aquila. Dunno if I'll keep her ot the Carrack. It's a hard choice. I may turn the Aquila into a Harbinger, or keep it and turn my Carrack into a Reclaimer. Life choices! Haha.

So, bear with me, if Spectrum is kind of Teamspeak/Discord/RSI forums tied into the game, what role could e-warfare play with it?
Could a Herald, for example, hack your dank memes? Will there be a kek economy?
It's time to start taking Shitpost Division more seriously...

No one is going to use the spectrum for this reason. It was decided log ago that the whole in game voice with delay and hacking and all those other features were simply trumped by having a dedicated out of game voice client. Unless CR wants to lock your computer, which would cause massive backlash, the spectrum will be mostly dead on arrival. Reddit already beat this horse dead revived it and veat it dead again and each time it has been concluded "rather they spend more time on game than iin game voice/IM".
Yup, with you on that one. If in-game communication can be hacked (with the info runner stuff), it won't be used for anything worth hacking. If I am going to be running a high value cargo through risky space, I am not going to take that chance. Likewise, if a group is doing some infiltration work, they're not going to be using localized voip.
I love the idea. However, it's just not going to happen. Just like the forums on an already established org website (like this one). Just like an already running and active discord/mumble/teamspeak. Save stuff like this for future patches and not release.
