What to get, what to get... :SIGH:

Hi Everyone,

I was thinking a 315p, but the haulage on it is 8. I really wanted something bigger, so I was also considering the freelancer. What I did not like about it is I was worried about not having a tractor beam. I'm less worried now, because someone said you can put on on it easily at the cost of a weapon slot. That then worries me, because I have heard it described as a truck. If I am attacked (though the low sensor profile helps), how will I defend myself properly? That then makes me think about the 315p again..

I also love couriering and just zipping around. Which makes me think of the 350. The fact it has such a cool engine boost is really fun as, but haulage 5? (sigh)....

So, I guess, overall I was wanting to be in this place

Freelancer (1st Acquisition) - I've decided on this, It will be my first acquisition.
A 350 (If I can get it)
A rapier militarised when it comes out (or get it in the game) or see if a great dogfighter comes up.

I am also thinking of my wallet, lol..

What do you guys think?

I was wondering if, I can get an NPC pilot to team with me, so, escort me when I fly the Freelancer.

:Sigh:

At least, while we are all waiting for Alpha / Beta, we have the fun time of chewing the cud on all this..

Oh, another thought - (I have Soooooo many.....)

The Freelancer. Is the extra money worth doshing out more for the non-digital?
If I want a freelancer and say a 325, is it better off me buying the freelancer package and a 325 ship, or a 325 package and a freelancer? I'm intending to do the whole Wave thing (thanks wave!!!!!) with LTI.

When it comes to the 300 series, the roles are fairly well-defined:

300i General Purpose
315: Exploration
325: Combat
350: Speed

Granted, everything will be very modifiable and you can essentially turn a 315 into a 350 with different parts, but I got the 315 for exploration and the M50 for speed.

Connie is my bigger hauler/CiC ship, Hornet is my combat ship. The Aurora will collect dust, Starfarer is for fuel, Avenger is because America, the Freelancer is for small hauling and the Cutlass is for picking up chicks.

Oh, yeah.

About the Freelancer package, it is a physical package. The digital one however, is better than the 325s for credits. If you want some tat with your game get the physical. Too tired to give a good summation of all the ships right now sorry.

As always, ZRAMN (mobile)

Physical pack it is then - Freelancer.

At least I can show my wife WHAT I spent the dosh on, rather than pointing to a screen and saying "isn't it beautiful honey?"

Okay. Now I'm excited. VERY excited.

LOL!

Not from a comedy skit... well, it might be, but I don't know. I play with a traditional Irish music band on the weekends and our fiddler got really drunk and wound up saying something really absurd like, "I want a Guinness ice cream float because.... America."

Which you really just can't argue with, heh!
