I just spent $450 on Life stuff and probably need to spend $350 more on bills...I just can't help but think that's like, an Orion, a Prospector, and maybe a Hull C to carry away cargo. Le Sigh.

 

[Black Sunder]

Good to see so many people getting one. I'll raise a glass to them putting out a salvage ship next.

Oh and i will do one of these for the Dragonfly whatever form it takes.

The hangar is wrong.

This is the correct picture

Bay 69...very nice!

And another post well done @Black Sunder !!

Not yet but in the future. And it will be a fun future.

Great post as always Black Sunder. I like these ship speculation threads and discussions. I just can't believe we don't have any of the mechanics in the game yet at this point. To put this in perspective, the detailed mining post by CIG was on 2/14/15, over 14 months ago! I would have thought by now cargo hauling, salvaging, and mining would have been in the game in some form.

Remember this week on Wednesday and Friday we're getting 2 Q&A articles by CIG on the Prospector. If anyone is on the fence maybe these will push you one way or the other.

But not for a while, though. I remember Ben said on RTV that first on the list is something pirate.

I'm interested to see what the Buccaneer will be like as well. Hopefully it takes the best parts of the Cutlass and pushes those forward more in its design.

It would be nice if one of their answers was when the mining mechanic will be out besides just saying "soon".

How'd "Two Weeks™" sound?

 

[Devastat3]

Fallout! So much fallout! 1 hr late after the 2 weeks mark everyone would have their pitchfork out.

Hey guys, GrayHeadedGamers size comparison video is LIVE, go check it out,

And, his "review" of this post:
"very awesome" and "very well done to say the least"

 

[joe-chimy]

This is the starter ship I was looking for, use it for building funds to run bigger ships, and use it for 'blah' days when you want to log in but do your own thing.

Agreed - can't wait for relaxing mining days in my Prospector

Holy cow the Hull-E is BIGGGG

Yes, its huge. Cargo is worth more than the ship.
