COMMUNITY MANAGERS LOG. 2016. Week 11. These things are all the same. It's supposed to be a week like any other, but something feels... different, somehow...
.....

Friday. It must be Friday. Reverse the Verse is on Friday. Yeah, we've changed it up a bit, but it's still the same show with graphics. Changing up that intro every week is a bitch though. Don't know why I said yes to that stupid idea. Probably because it was mine... I really thought the difference this week was going to be ship related... Something new, maybe? Something... concept-y... Something... we probably won't find out about until Friday...

Your poll doesn't even consider the fact that an already existing ship might go on sale (again), because it will become "Hangar Ready"

My bet is either the Starfarer or the Reliant, which we've been told are very nearly "hangar ready"

this +1

 

been waiting for that beaty for awhile now :) with all the sneakpeaks

Yes it does - it is the last poll option.....

A Ship already sold before but that will soon become hangar ready (like the Starfarer)

Agree that the Reliant and Starfarer have both been on a fast track lately. May not be anything New or unseen at all.

I for one am ready for the Starfarer, but I think the multi-crew station stuff will hold it back for awhile longer.

Maybe they will surprise us and have a full station Star ready. - DRUM out

I agree, its definitely how CIG has been conducting their sales i.e. they release the sabre and xian scout -> sale for both of them.

Though it would be really nice to see a concept sale thrown in there for good measure... maybe the Argo utility ship.  I just dream of the Terrapin... and the Hygiea.  But I seriously doubt that the Hygiea would be on sale (or anything equivalent to it), as it blows the Crucible and possibly the Endeavor out of the water.  Think about it, would you get 2 small ships that can do either repair or medical/healing? Or get a larger ship (at the expense of security) that can easily do both?

Well they keep suggesting that the Starfarer would appear in the next large patch i.e 2.3. So unless we are expecting 2.3 to be that soon then it is unlikely. They also seem to release all ships in large patch updates 2.1, 2.2 etc and only once released to the public and not the PTU, so I'm not necessarily expecting one of the known ships at that point.

At the same time the new Buccaneer and Polaris seem a little early so perhaps the Dragonfly?

The Idris will be hangar ready?  Awesome!

 

:lol:

Perhaps not until S42.

Ultimately, here's the deal: It's just too early to know, just yet.

There's still a lot of work to do on the Idris. There's still a lot of work to do on Squadron 42.

And the decision to release one before the other doesn't have to be made until one is ready and the other is not.

So it's all ideas and ruminations at this point, but no decision on this exists at this time, and even if it did, it would be subject to the changing realities of development at the hypothetical future time we're discussing.

So we're gonna put a pin in this thread now. This isn't even a call we have to make for months and months to come, yet.

It's probably the reliant going hangar ready, seems like the closes one to getting anywhere.

As for the Idris, there's still the hope they'll park a non-functional one somewhere in the PU. Lock the doors to the rooms they havn't finished, etc. Hell, they could straight up lock all the entries and just leave it there for people to gawk at the mostly finished outside.

I'm going to say that the Retribution. Obviously.

Chris told me in a private Q&A that the Retribution is up next, it is going to be a hull limited sale. There is only 1 hull and the price is $999,999.99. To make everyone in the community happy it will have railguns, 10 different sizes of torpedos, 8 different sizes of AA guns, a separate planet killer gun, multiple hangars for anything up to javelin size and it is faster than the m50 and more agile than the Khartu Al and most importantly it will come with LTI ....... I asked Chris specifically if it also carries snub fighters and Chris said that I could tell @Voa that it will allow docking of snub fighters too ....  ;)

Don't forget the modularity and emp weapons that don't affect it and it can land on planets and it comes with 10,000 NPCs to crew it.

Didnt the say they will tell us the price 1 week before sale?

This was in regards to the Wave 4 Concept ships, the last of which is the Prowler. Ships we add in as development requires them (i.e. Sabre) or in future waves may or may not necessarily have the same heads up. In this case, it will not.

Its probably the promised bagel carrier yeah definitely the bagel carrier.
I also said it was not the Prowler in the OP. =)

To clarify what a "concept sale" means with regards to Star Citizen:

This is a ship in which the "on paper" design is finished, meaning the general write up of what it is and what it's supposed to do is complete, and it has been given to a concept artist. After days/weeks/months of feedback and revision, a final concept is accepted and agreed upon by the relevant stakeholders. 

At this point, we put the ship up for "Concept Sale." This is the first iteration of the ship, before our vehicle and technical artists have begun to build it, and before it continues to be further developed. The Concept Sale is your first chance to pledge for the ship. It will not generally be the last time, and of course, these ships can be acquired via time and effort in the finished game. 

Purchasing concept sale ships are just one more way to support the continued development of Star Citizen.

Also
you
can
get
LTI...

But
LTI
is
meh...?

(I'm having fun.)

Ben - 1.14m - Another wave of ships with 6 in the hopper & (CIG) aiming for one a month (new Concept Ships) with the Dragonfly again confirmed.....
0.jpg


Here is my guess yesterday for the 6 ships.... per this quote below.....

VoA | VoA said:

Just Curious what people think about the new upcoming ships (on the list below) and if they will be Modular / Variants / Dedicated (dedicated = very little modularity with no variants - more of a specialist ship = M50 would be an example of a dedicated ship) = See OP for additional details on this.

Here is My Take on the New Upcoming Ships we know about:

Argo = Modular
Dragonfly = Modular
Buccaneer = Variants
Small Mining Ship (possibly Terrapin) = Dedicated
Prowler = Dedicated
Polaris = Dedicated

^^^ From this thread --->> What the Majority of the Community thinks about Variants and Modularity [POLL] [1,327+ VOTES]

================

So..... what is your guess for the 6 Concept Ships in the Hopper (per Ben) ?????

They've said in the Orion thread on RSI that there's no intention of making the Terrapin.

Well..... it might not be the "Starter Ship" = Terrapin....... but it still could be (what has been discussed recently - the past few days)...... a "Small Mining Ship"..... or previously discussed a "Medium Mining Ship". -------- so saying there is no "Terrapin" really only means no "starter ship"...... not "no mining ship"
