Nah, nah, nah. . .look again peeps. Time index 4:58. Yes, that is not the Merlin but rather the Archemedes. But look at the frame of the shot. That was taken from outside of the ship, facing a ramp.

I get what Mich is saying. . .the ramp is in front; but that is a ramp. We are NOT looking down into the hangar. We're looking up the ramp. That means this can fit two ships.

At least. . .looks that way to me.

No that is not from outside that's inside looking through a unfinished door in to the hangar,
that is the hangar but it does look like the Archemedes indeed

Or actually the CAM is oposite same opening unfinished window or door but very much inside !

CHEERS ! 🍻

What CIG plans to fit in hangars and what a bunch of drunk dummies can cram in there with wanton abandon are two radically different things.
Indeed... ... .. . Leaning back thinking the Phoenix... ... .. . yeah I can lower the hangar in the Phoenix then squeeze it in the Carrack hangar and I got a Carrack with luxury trailer...

That'll be wicked... hmmm... .. . where's my beer.. hey come back here... .. .. . !

Looking at the Carrack in the CitizenCon demo and the version in the ad that dropped I have a little more faith that @Blind Owl is right, the overall shapes look the same but it appears there is much more LOD in the ad version (although we see much less of it of course).

From the Demo

Compared to from the ad:

Fingers crossed.

She's get prettied-up my friend. Also, it's what's on the inside that counts, right?

Like beer fridges!

10 months ago reveal had me super stoked. That ship looked even better than the original. Then the new reveal made me go wtf??? It looked as ugly as Elon Musks truck. It felt like someone got lazy and decided to make a large space whale. The smooth straight lines on the side killed its aggressiveness and rugged look 10 months earlier. Hope they revert back to the earlier design

Well, when you're right... Damn, really did like the old look... Better include a pool-table and beer-dispenser; that would make me forgive almost anything :-D

It is the back door, or window of the hangar they showed in the demo.

Um, the Roadmap has the Carrack as being approx 55% completed. So calm down & cheer up. There's much nicer looks of it than they showed in the CitizenCon mission demo.

Indeed this shows a bit of confusion given what was shown in the keynote doesn't match the version shown in ship talk. But you have to remember unless you where there most of us did not see ship talk until this weekend and even then there is a huge disconnect. Is the keynote one the current model or is the ship talk one the current model.
