    BMM keeping its Cargo space!

    Just eyeballing it, carrack has roughly half the volume of BMM, if we exclude the wings. And even though it's not any sort of freight ship, it still has 0.5k SCU. Now Carrack has the same issue as Caterpillar, the cargo bays sacrifice a lot of space for modularity. Caterpillar could hold like...

    BMM keeping its Cargo space!

    Each SCU is 1x1x1 meters or so. So the BMM would need to have a cargo hold the size of 16x16x16 meters. Or 16x8x32 meters. Or any other configuration as long as the end result is 3500 or so. It's perfectly doable. The ship's own dimensions are 160x160x65, though that includes the wings. But you...

    BMM keeping its Cargo space!

    If the BMM is really going to keep over 3kSCU cargo space, I'm suspecting it'll end up in the $600 range eventually. Yes, there are hulls that will have more cargo space for cheaper, but there are no other ships with internal cargo space of over a thousand that would be cheaper than $1000, and...

    Intergalactic Aerospace Expo 2950 Megathread - Its Done

    I can only admire your dedication. I only gained 7% more towards becoming a lowly High Admiral this entire year, and at this rate I'll need 3 more years to achieve even that. Or like, one real badass ship.

    It seems likely that a flight ready 400i is coming for Xmas

    Well, the remote turret may or may not be pilot controlled, could also be just remote turret. But damn, this fan did do a great job here. Presumably alone. I mean, you'd probably have like at least 10 people doing those brochures at CIG, partly bureaucracy but also because there are few...

    Still haven't got best in show skin....but got this instead?

    As I understand it, you get the skin if you got the *ship* in your hangar when the event *ends.* Which, I suppose, is a neat way of tying the backer money in ships instead of a million $5 CCU at the end of the event.

    400i Coming Soon™

    Interesting, so 3 seat cockpit like 600i, Armory, Bridge, Habitation area (with separate captains quarters), presumably some sort of central area and/or corridors, garage, engineering and cargo areas. So quite large, but not quite 600i. Maybe around star runner sized... Could be luxury...

    400i Coming Soon™

    Luxury science ship? I wonder what that would look like... I'm thinking... large caviar collider?

    Intergalactic Aerospace Expo 2950 Megathread - Its Done

    Well, Day 1 began on Nov 20 at 4pm UTC, and ended on Nov 21 at 3:59pm UTC. So day 13 should start Dec 2 at 4pm UTC and end on Dec 3 at 3:59pm UTC. So I'd say the expo ending Dec 3 at 3:59pm UTC would be the logical best bet, though acting as if the expo was ending on Dec 2 at 3:49pm UTC would...

    Predictions for ship price increases

    Oh right, I just remembered that this quote exists: Hull D would appear to be large enough to carry 24 hornets. Now, maybe they have to be boxed, maybe not. But it can carry a ton of vehicles, which would make it rather ideal for moving your operations to another system. Also feel like Hull...

    Possible December Sale Predictions

    Oh, that's a shame. And yeah, I kinda like how beefy Gemini is, but... if gemini can't produce quantum fuel without a miner and a suitable location for mining... that's very limiting. Also kinda depends on how much those external fuel tanks will add to Geminis fuel capacity, I presume the...

    Predictions for ship price increases

    I believe the hull series will get finished next year, and they'll get price increases all around. Hull E and Hull C have already seen some increases, but I think they'll get more. The hull series are going to be more or less the most attractive ships to safe space traders, with none of the...

    Perseus breaks single day funding records

    Oh, I didn't even notice that! Interesting... Kinda expected more or less all of the months being at least average for such a record breaking year.

    Possible December Sale Predictions

    I mean, Prospector already extracts fuel that it can't refine (Quantanium) which kinda makes me wonder... Does starfarer require a prospector to actually get quantanium? Can starfarer produce quantum fuel through other means? Or will starfarer be just the kinda... real dumb way of getting...

    Possible December Sale Predictions

    Nomad feels like it might be sort of a test for Hull series, what with also having an external cargo space that moves up and down.

    Performance issues

    What I don't get, is why don't they just scale the servers up majorly during these events? I mean, if they spent like a million to rent some extra capacity for two weeks, they'd probably make at the very least twice as much back from everyone just having such a positive experience and deciding...

    RSI Perseus - First look!

    Of that, I'm sure. An interesting take, but... 10k dps? That seems awfully low, actually. 890 Jump, with it's industrial S4 shields does up to 19k continuous shield regen (overclocked). Now that's divided by 4 shield faces, I'm not entirely sure if focusing your shields on one direction will...

    Did you see it?

    Oh my! By the looks of it, this guy is in the progress of successfully crashing a blowtorch into an RSI Perseus turret, though at this time I don't think we can confirm whether beer was or was not involved.

    RSI Perseus - First look!

    It's a real cool ship I will probably work toward acquiring in the verse. I don't have infinite money to buy every ship, atm I'm just looking at getting like two large or capital sized ships that are capable of making money and some smaller mission runner as well, so I can buy more ships, and...

    Wait, they've BUFFED scatterguns?

    The problem I see here is basically that, take dominance-2 scatterguns, AFAIK they do up to 103 damage per pellet when the guns are running hot. That's all sorts of lots. CF-227 Badger only does 59 damage per shot, Scorpion GT-215 does 21 damage per shot, and if you go one size down, well, size...
