Good job @Black Sunder hopefully I'll be joining you guys soon, with the Cat.
Looks like there is a bug where the ship isn't showing up now if you beat Pirate Swarm. Was supposed to be available for 2 weeks.

There was a limited number of them I think
There shouldn't have been. The Glaive was limited # but there was nothing in the 2.6 announcement that indicated the Pirate Cat was limited #, just a limited time.

Huh. I thought Ben said that during the Holiday Livestream. I could be wrong. It happened once before. ;)
Oh no know, I have the option to buy it from VS, but no cash. Damn the luck.
Ah well I'll wait for the next presale and buy something else instead.
Well I did manage to complete it in a group but still cannot quite finish it solo, sadly the wildfire cannot take the hits, still pyroburst at close range sure does kill fast! I used panthers for the group battle. No ccu but not totally convinced on the internal colours of the pirate cat.
I tried it two times yesterday evening. My strategy:
- had a glass of wine
- played Pirate swarm. Been unharmed since wave 12, then crashed into an asteroid. Respawned - and crashed into a damn pirate cutlass, sluggish bastard of a ship.
- had another glass of wine.
- made it to wave 16 for been then shredded in my own blood caused by Constellation broadside fire. Respawned - and somehow used a wrong key, not being then able to steer my ship but nodding my virtual head instead. Died.
- had another glass of wine.
- I somehow made it to wave 11 unharmed. Then crashed into an asteroid; respawned; crashed into some pirate ship shit.
- went to bed.
Conclusion: don't drink wine and fly.
...drink beer instead. :beer:

Tried it yesterday; failed again at wave 14 by glorious crashing into some asteroids; TEST way to fail though.
I definitely am in need of some human backup, because the KI NPC wingmen are nothing more than cannonfodder.
I'd love to help Sam. Just gotta find the time, haha.
Plus, just to mention, the minor time zone differences :smile:
I would offer to help, but I've had no time to actually play SC since the patch came out (stupid holidays), so I'd probably be as bad as the AI helpers :P
