This is a good change, and hopefully will mean that other, "limited"/"event" based items/paints may also be made available again (Of course, CIG took away my "need" for the 2950 Valkyrie BIS paint when they released the Asgard at a lower price than the Valkyrie, but with essentially the 2950 BIS...

I was thinking more in terms of actual ground (wheeled/tracked) vehicles, rather than hoverbikes (I believe that the Cutlass Red may be able to squeeze in ground vehicles up to the size of a ROC, and possibly even the CSV-SM... Which would mean the CSV-FM fabrication vehicle may also fit when it...

I've only added the 2 event starter packs to my main account, and I'm in the process of converting my surplus credits into BIS ships, to get as many of the free paints as my final (release/1.0) fleet is likely to need. Post IAE, I'll probably be melting most of the BIS ships and picking up the...

I wonder whether the ability to spawn on those vehicle platforms is based on whether the footprint of the landing gear/wheels/tracks of a ship is smaller than the pad size, rather than ship's designated size/class? The Clipper's landing gear does fit into a very small area for the size of the...

While the ship seems to be a decent all-rounder, I'm finding it difficult to justify the price-tag. For $15 less, you can get a Cutlass Red, which contains all the features (except the fabrication bench/area) of the Clipper, while also including a second med-bed (potentially allowing double the...

In some ways, yes... Looked at another way, you're paying $15 more than a Cutlass Red and potentially getting less in return. Is that $15 worth losing the ability to move through the ship quicker/easier, losing the ability to carry vehicles, and sacrificing 1 med bed, in return for a...

I'm disappointed that CIG didn't release some form of pack with it, and only released it as standalone or with game package - A "Junior Entrepreneur"/"Junior Roughneck" pack (Golem, Salvation, Nomad, ROC) would have been a nice entry-level package that could take care of most of the non-combat...

PM sent.

In theory, there wasn't any reason the Asgard couldn't have been priced around the $200 mark... Compared to the Constellation Taurus, for example, which sits at $200 in the pledge store: It carries a similar amount of cargo as the Constellation Taurus (180 to the Taurus' 174 (or 168 readily...

It looks like we get a "duplicate" CCU today - The F7C's price and savings match those of the Freelancer MIS from the 19th, so it may be of limited interest to people. I'm disappointed by the price of the Asgard, as I saw it as a larger "Cutlass Black" with the Valkyrie being a larger "Cutlass...

Well, it appears that CIG have decided to "compensate" us for the small discount offered on the day 1 CCU (Vanguard Warden) by adding an additional $5 savings onto todays CCU offering (Starfarer Gamini) compared to past times it has been available ($25 savings today, rather than the $20 savings...

With the new ship releases so far, I'm beginning to get concerned about how much the Asgard is ikely to cost. At present, we have an "LTI token", "Capitol ship", and 2 "mid-range" ($250-$400) ships. This leaves 2 likely holes for the ship to be placed into: low-range ($100-$250), and high range...

I finally got around to refreshing my chains: I was surprised that I could use 2 of the Vanguard Warden CCU's (one mid-chain, one as an endpoint). With how many A1-> "concept" San.tok CCU's I have spare, it's tempting to get extras of this one, even though it's only a 50% savings CCU... If you...

Looked at Cynically, it's likely the saving is so low because this is the closest price they can use in order to make the CCU cost more than $5, as there are ships to start the CCU from at $240, $235, $230, $225, $220. Otherwise they'd have to drop it to $220 in order to avoid the $5 CCU, which...
