    We got some new Vault images today. I'm going to be very disappointed if those turrets end up with Size 4 guns.

    People in the 890 Jump Club Discord were saying that the 890 has been available from Concierge for $990 (with 6 months insurance) for the last year if you asked them if you could buy one.

    The cargo bay is in the back of the ship in between the engines. The 890 Jump is now officially 199 m. It has room for both a cargo bay and a hangar.

    I wonder which of these two versions is newer. I like the darker one from the vault better personally.

    I'm really happy that we get to go from this To this

    Ok. These pictures are from the first iteration of the 70m 890 concept The cargo elevator was from the second iteration of the 70m concept, though it was dropped from the 123m concept floor plans in the brochure.

    Yeah, the back of the 890 had the main entrance to the ship. A ridiculous elevator that ran between the engines. The master suite is right above it, tacked on to the back of the ship. The main entrance on the graybox model is still an elevator in the back somewhere. I think it connects to the atrium directly. The main cargo elevator in the concept art was kind of cool. It was never made clear where it fit in the concept models though.

    I personally wasn't a fan of the rear wing on the concept art and I think the greybox model looks sleeker with it removed. The rear of the 890 was always the least developed part of the original design. There was a reason they never showed it to us during the concept sale. It's just a mess of different shapes. The redesigned rear of the greybox model has been cleaned up significantly. The removal of the upper engines allowed them to add a massive wall of windows for the master suite. The back of the 890 isn't as flat as the image implies, as we can see from the teaser video. AdeptFlusteredAmericanalligator.webm

    Remember that the perspective in those pictures is compressed and doesn't show the true dimensions of the bow. Compare this piece of concept art And this side profile view of the holoviewer model With the side profile of the greybox model The proportions haven't changed that much.

    Here's another comparison, though the angle isn't quite right.

    After waiting four years, I'm happy with the final concept model of the 890 Jump. The proportions of the ship are fine. The front three-quarter views are compressing 200m of ship into a narrow view and distorting the perspective. Putting some curve back into the side flaps would do a lot to restore the original concept's lines. When you compare the new model with original concept art from the same perspective you see that it hasn't changed that much. I don't have that much interest in VIP transport missions. I bought my 890 to turn it into a luxury explorer, to see how comfortably I could travel the stars. Sure, it won't perform that role as efficiently or cheaply as my Carrack, but it will do it with style and capital components.
  12. I recently got two T.16000Ms to use in a dual-stick setup and I used this guide to get them working. I'm doing a lot better with dual-sticks than I was with my X-55. It just feels a lot more natural. https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/4zlnl4/dual_t16000m_hosas_setup_with_tips/ I haven't tried scripting in TARGET yet, but here's a resource for that. https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/50q350/updated_t16000m_target_script_for_dual_sticks/

    I was really hoping they would stick with the proportions from this picture. I don't like the current model that has most of the ships bulk located in the back half. The larger bow looks a lot nicer to me.

    It's giftable if you pay entirely in cash. If you use any amount of store credit it becomes account bound.

    I managed to get one from the first batch, which surprised me. There were 357 available when I added mine to the cart and 0 available when I finished checking out. The one thing I have discovered that concerns me is the boat bay. The brochure shows that it has room for two 85X runabouts while the store page holoviewer clearly only has room for one. I was really hoping I'd be able to stuff a full sized fighter in there.
