It's a fighter - it's meant to be fast. Without boost this thing is outrun by almost everything. That makes absolutely no sense. I do agree with all you say - I just dislike the glaring *mistakes* they are making with ship development. A slow fighter is not much good against faster prey if they can just run away from it. If your premise that it isn't faster as that would be unbalanced is true (quite likely that it is) it just goes further to my point that they are getting ship development wrong (I only implied the point but you evidently understood )

Just making sure I've got this straight - this ship is slower, has way less internals, less armor, lower shields, fewer weapons but costs basically the same as an imperial clipper. The only thing it has is (admittedly fantastic) maneuverability. So you're paying about 17 mil over the odds for that. How is it so maneuverable and so damn slow anyway?

In defence of the original post it should be noted that this ship is classified as a heavy fighter - a class of ship that is usually considered pretty low on the pricing ladder in most games - so the exceptionally high price tag will be seen by many as unreasonable.

You're missing my point. I'm not saying that it's a bad ship - I'm saying that it doesn't follow the same rules as the other ships. A medium ship shouldn't be able to have what the python does ie huge cargo and lots of weapons. I'm not botching about its performance at all. You have completely misread what I'm saying. As far as nerfing the python goes - it deserves the manoeuvrability nerf because it is overpowered enough anyway.

I have just purchased my python and my first impression is that it is completely wrong. It really makes no sense. Every ship that came before it was pretty much well thought out. Small ships are cheap but have little space, freighters are big but poorly armed etc. Then this ship comes along and uses completely different rules to all the others. It's a medium ship that holds more cargo than a large freighter and has more weapon and equipment points than the much larger clipper. It's absolutely crazy. And the downside to breaking the rules that the other ships in the game must live by? It's stated manoeuvrability is way way higher than its actual manoeuvrability, it's expensive (obviously, it's slow and it uses 4 times as much fuel as anything else I've flown. I'm using it as a cargo ship and so haven't fitted decent thrusters and it's manoeuvrability is 1 and speed about 3 on the 0 to 10 scale. I actually feel like a cheat flying this and will trade it in once the new ships are released.

The better the ship, the higher the repair costs become. Just the way the game works. Freighters are the cheapest to repair because they are just a box with an engine and large multi purpose ships like this cost the most. Just like real life where your ferrari costs more than your Ford transit ;)

I am a truly awful dogfighter but I can kill anything up to python with this so goodness only knows what the guy who says you can't hit anything with it is going on about. I don't have chaff, shield banks or any other defensive tech apart from a class 4 shield. With those items (and if I was a better fighter pilot) then no ship in the game would be safe from this. Yes, it's expensive and so are repairs. The game is designed that way. Fighter ships cost more to repair than pure freighters and expensive ships cost more to repair than cheap ships.

Keep the asp as it's a fantastic explorer that can trade and fight. Ranking in the empire is simple. Pick 3 empire systems and trade between them. Within 5 hours you'll be offered enough missions to rank to baron. Try Jeterait (might be jeteriat) faust 68 area. Faust 68 has a nice bonus of having very good kit for the new ship ;)

I have just purchased one of these and I am so glad that I did. It's the most beautiful ship to fly and look at. You need 40 mil credits AT LEAST to appreciate this ship as you'd likely be put off if you flew the 22 mil stock version. It trades better than a type 7 and fights better than an asp (mostly). Did I mention that it's also beautiful?
