Which is the coolest ship?

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

The Hammerhead, baby. Sleek & agressive, AND it can give those sluggish L10 VHF's a pasting... I dig it.

The coolest looking ship for me is the Valkyrie... with those twin green engines, and the circular something... if only the turret was better placed.

The Drake for sure, Infact all the Kusari fighters look good. Even the drone...looks like one of those coco mog from FFVII. lol
Juni's ship looks good too. The sabre is the best lookin' VHF.

My vote goes to my modded flyable BB Osiris any time! Runner up would be the Dromedary, which just looks... cool. Wonder why none of you people like it!

And the ugliest looking title goes to the Eagle... it has a plain ugly shape, ugly paint scheme, and even missing access panels!! All that said, it is still my preferred non-modded ship.

It's a major toss-up IMHO...

Eagle
Anubis
Osiris
Dromedary
Sabre
Patriot(looks like a little diving bird of prey...it's so weak but it just looks so cool)

Reaper: $200,000,000.
Rockets: $100,000
The look on that pilot's face when you launch a full pod of screamers up his tailpipe: priceless

The Bloodhound, now I have flown it is pretty cool even if it does turn like a brick.

I've seen other people saying that some freighters actually looks cool, like the Drone and the Rhino, which both, in my opinion, are quite ugly. The real winner among the freighters would have to be the Mule... even if the name doesn't impy it. It looks kind of like a tank, and with it's awesome rogue engines the ship is even better. Probably the real reason no one has seen much of the mule is because not many have piloted it or gotten close enough to rogue ships to take a look.

Siletto for me...that ship is pretty close to the anubius and it looks cooler.

Post Wed Apr 23, 2003 4:18 am

Well,
I've had the pleasure of seeing all the fighter class ships and have tried almost all of em. Currently, I'm piloting a Titan and man do I miss my Eagle *makes me wonder why i played so long to get this ship*
Oh well, for me? For looks, the Eagle, it has nice clean lines.

If I have a choice, I'll fly the Osiris...

Now you see it...now you don't..

..and I just wonder, where do I buy one of those?...

Post Wed Apr 23, 2003 5:22 am

I like the bounty hunter ships and the Valkryies.

Considering mostly looks and putting aside the considerations of power and handling, I like the Dragon, the Anubis, and the Sabre among the fighters, and the Dromedary--which appears to be an effort to blend capacity with some aerodynamism--among the freighters. The Eagle has its points, but it just looks too conventional to me.

Handling and firepower are a different story, of course. I like the Eagle's handling but the unconventional-looking Sabre's forward-firing turret, but the Titan's extra armor doesn't make up, to me, for its ugly outriggers and sluggish handling. Among the freighters I think the Dromedary is the best, but it's hard to survive in firefights or radiation.

If the firepower were similar, I'd probably still be flying a Dragon or Anubis instead of an Eagle or Sabre. But when I feel like a merchant, I only have eyes for the Dromedary.

It's better to burn out than to fade away
