Nice, but lot of glitches

That's because its being played in 2.5 instead of the current 2.6 version.

My title is from what people on Reddit said in the comments. Take it as you will.

I still do not have a cargo ship. Thorn to which one to get, undecided.

Fantastic level of detail. The wiring in the walls is pretty impressive - presumably it is there to be seen when destruction damage from firefights/ship-to-ship combat removes wall panels.

You can really tell that FPS combat was a factor in their design - this will be so much fun (or not) to clear when boarding parties hit it.

Thanks for posting this Sunder.

I wonder how much cargo capacity Cat will have with 4 cargo modules.

I wonder how much cargo capacity Cat will have with 4 cargo modules.

It says "Cargo capacity 512". But I have no idea what that means. A Hull B has 384 cargo units, a Starfarer 3300, a Hull C 4600, whereas an Andromeda has 134 and a Freelancer MAX only 123.

Sam, that are the old stats when the Cat was 66.5 m long.
I think Cat is now around 100 m. The stat page is outdated.

 

[Wolf Lord Caldersson]

The stat page is fucked up is ehat he is saying starfarer has 3300 and the andromoda has 134. The starfarer does not have 30x more dry storage than the connie. i would gues the each storage module for the cat has 1/2 to 3/4 of a andromoda.

Looking forward to getting my hands on this for...."Legitimate" business opportunities.

There was a "hack" posted on reddit that walks people through how to access 2.6 in an offline mode by tricking the client into giving you the current PTU download. You are correct that this is actually 2.6, not 2.5 with added ships. I would expect there to be glitches since it's not past the Avocado stage.

 

[Top Frogger]

That thing is absolutely beautiful

 

[BUTUZ]

Hmmm. Maybe I will live to regret not getting the cat. It was expensive in this sale. Its got a shit ton of cargo space now and the modularity could be awesome!

Ah well, freelancer max and banu merchant man will have to fill the gap! :D

I originally was going to go with the cat but it lacks the speed and maneuverability of the BMM, also the BMM is describe as a Q ship so its hard for me to believe that an escort will be needed.The Cat on the other hand will undoubtedly need one.For those reasons i went with the BMM.
