We cannot stand for this kind of disrespect

I was browsing through the r/starcitizen Discord just now and under the "Serious" section of the text chat someone posted this blatant attack on our ideals

As if that weren't bad enough, someone else chimed in with more lies

We cannot stand for this, we must prove to them what the most powerful ship in the game, an Aurora piloted by a drunk Testie!

I absolutely hate the Aurora.

It's too powerful as the LN, takes too long to kill, has a giant missile on top. The CL hauls too much for a starter ship, the LX's seat is too comfy, and the ES is too cheap.

Most of all, I hate the view. Staring through those bars makes me feel like I'm imprizoned in my ship and I'm forced to watch the verse from the confines of my cell.

Other than that, the Aurora is the best ship for the money, flies fine, and the one time I took it into AC I was competing for 1st in Vanduul Swarm for the most points. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience in one.

No, the MR is a perfectly balanced ship. I have no quarrel with the MR.
So you don't hate the Aurora per se, you even seem to like the MR. As I rarely hit my target, I prefer the LN.

But as Montoya stated in one of his videos, any Aurora makes a perfect manned torpedo and therefore any Aurora is a good ship. :joy:

This is not disrespect, it is accurate.

The reason we love the Aurora is because nobody else will.

It shall be our most powerful weapon! :D

No, I hate the MR as well, I just don't see anything wrong with it compared to the other Auroras. It still has that terrible view, but it's still a flyable ship and still usable.

Don't forget that your LN can equip an S4 missile

Thats because an Aurora is like Hotel Califonia. You can enter, but you can never leave...

*to the tune of Hotel California*

On a dark Battle Royle, missiles in the air,
The warm smell of cordite, clings hard to my hair
EVAing up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My gun sites grew heavy and my oxygen short
I had only one choice for the fight
There she stood in the hangar;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
"This could be AC or this could be Hell"
Then she lit up a Badger, and she showed me the way
There were voices on the Dischord,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the RSI Aurora
Such a lovely ship (Such a lovely ship)
No, it's not shit
Plenty of room in the RSI Aurora
Any time of day (Any time of day)
They can't blow it away.

Her hull is slightly-twisted, she got the missiles to send,
LN's got a lot of pretty, pretty lasers she calls friend
How they dance in the wreckage, of the Broken Moon.
Some dance to remember, some rage-quit too soon.

So I called up the Captain,
"Montoya! Please send help!"
He said, "We have Auroras a plenty for pain to be dealt!"
And still those voices on dischord from far away,
Interrupt your ICC mission
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the RSI Aurora
Such a lovely ship (Such a lovely ship)
No, it's not shit
Blowin' it up in the RSI Aurora
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Hornet pilots despise

Welcome to the RSI Aurora
Such a lovely ship (Such a lovely ship)
No, it's not shit
Blowin' it up in the RSI Aurora
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Hornet pilots despise

Bars all over the windows,
Bed behind the seat
And she said "We are all just drunks here really, dance to your own beat"
And at Montoyas table,
They gathered for the feast
They crash the party with their RSI Auroras,
But they just can't kill the beat

Last thing I remember, I was
Opening the door
I had to find the way back
To the pilot seat I was sat in before
"Relax, " said the right man,
"Have a drink and just breathe:
You can sit in your Aurora any time you like,
But you can never leave!"

The only way to leave is to find a hard surface and make an impact...

Then wake up like notbing ever happened.
I have added a modified song to my original post which agrees with you.
