From what I can see in the current leaks on pipeline, the Antares is likely retaining the second seat\copilot, but not the turret. If the EMP and QED can be operated by the pilot, this would likely superceded the Mantis due to the better firepower and added EMP compared to the capacity of the...

And, to go with that, the addition of internal storage for ships which lack an interior or storage compartments:

It's a shame you couldn't try that with the M50 that the spaceport guards often have their guns aimed at in the foyer. You could get some interesting shots there...

So, salvage tools aren't affected by Armistace zones, I take it :) And I'd been thinking the Distortion Vulture was the easy option for Salvage...

I'm interested in which other ship will be granted LTI along with it in any potential bundle... At a guess we'll get a "Nest of Scorpions" bundle with the Scorpius and the Antares. It's a shame we had to get another combat ship - I had been hoping for a ground based salvage vehicle (salvage...

So, Scorpius confirmed... Blue lightning certainly suggests EMP.

There is mention of both a QED Scorpius and an EMP Mantis on Pipeline, but I'm not sure where the lights and other features in that image would be located on either ship. The choice of colour in the image also makes things difficult (the lights look like they may be a white\yellow colour, but...

View: https://twitter.com/RobertsSpaceInd/status/1624166533382430754 The likely ship type would seem to be either: Salvage (3.18) Racing (3.18) Something green (St Patrick's day next month, "lucky ship" remark) Or the traditional "pew pew" ship (no reason seemingly needed to release more). I...

With the imminent price increase on the Hurricane, grabbing some CCU's (warbond or otherwise) for the Heartseeker (Which, I believe, is only available at this time of the year and not at invictus\IAE\etc.) may be useful to have on hold for future CCU chains, partcularly if you missed the...

A large part of the problem is that new players aren't made aware of this, so they'll take off from their selected "home" planet, do whatever activities they want to do, and unless they had landed at a space port\rest stop in their travels, get returned there when they "exit game", leading to...

Such as travelling from the hab to the spaceport in order to collect your ship :)

One interesting feature of the 3.18 PTU: The C8 Pisces (not to be confused with its more effective siblings: The C8X and the C8R) has apparently been made purchasable in-game. Given that it is currently only available through the purchase of the Carrack in the pledge store, could it be that CIG...

Correction to above: The Emerald isn't a February\"Coramor" release, it's a March (St Patrick's Day) release - There are too many holiday "sales" they run at this time of the year (Christmas, Chinese New Year, Valentine's Day, St Patrick's day) which in my head merged. Interestingly, the Lynx...

I had been wondering when this would happen. They were (are?) getting very close to having to release a 3.17.6 patch to include the Valentine's day (Coramor) skins\items (Feb 11 in game lore). As it is, there's only about 10 days to go with wave 2 before either 3.17.6 or 3.18 will be needed on...

I've only been playing the game for a year or so, but I can certainly understand the lack of "excitement" about purchasing new ships, although the cause may be slightly different... In my case, while a number of new ships look interesting to me (not all: Combat focussed ships have limited\no...

Has anyone else noticed that the Hull C CCU's, while not being WarBond CCU's, still have the Warbond "limit one CCU per order" restriction applied?

According to the Roadmap, work is supposed to finish up on the Hull C in late February - I'd guess that CIG had planned for it to be in the "3.18.x"\"3.19" release, but (as much as I hate saying this) with the number of bugs still in the PTU, it may still end up in 3.18. Either way, if you can...

For those on the fence, a quick reminder that 3.18 is on the way (although who knows when it will get here) with the expected increase in price for the Vulture as it releases with the patch... I've also added a few extra recent paints if anyone missed out on them (or didn't have access) and...

As the sale is connected with the "Siege of Orison" event, it will probably run until at least the end of the event (January 30th at 20:00 UTC, according to the Spectrum post). Edit: Correction - The ship is part of the "Lunar New Year" event, so is available until February 6 (although timezone...
