Prism Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 (edited) This clip from The Next Great Starship showcases the new Mustang ship as well as an interview with the creator. The link should take you right to it but if not the showcase starts around the 10:55 mark. The Mustang will be a fast, utilitarian starter ship and rival to the Aurora. According to Chris Roberts the initial idea is that the Mustang will have a pivoting weapon mount (under the nose) as opposed to the fixed mount on the Aurora, but in turn will not support Missiles or sleeping compartments (which the Aurora does). So basically the Mustang kind of sounds like a compromise between the Aurora and the Hornet. Here is a picture of the Mustang: I want one!

Spryone Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I love that they showed the concept process. The other thing I like is that in the forums they were talking about it and what it would look like and here it is . Now if we could fit it in the Connie .

theJaeks Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 well, it's like a Honda Civic vs an upstart like the Hyundai Elantra one is a little more refined and well established, one is newer and less refined and trying to find it's spot in the marketplace. What I find interesting, which is also typical, as development proceeds, the newer ships are taking on a more dramatic look, and the Rule of Cool is starting to rear itself more readily. Sadly, by the time the game is out, my Connie might look antiquated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
