GodDAMN. I just
have to have this, and NAOUW. It almost beats the Scorpius as the coolest space jet in all of FICTION, not just games.

CIG very deliberately makes the advertisement videos reflect how real-world car companies do things.

Only the F8C is 300. The Harbinger is 290, although technically "justifies" the jump over the 260 Warden with the larger turret and 3 torpedoes.
Juneau_33 wrote:Ok then add on Origin luxury tax onto that price!
Robot_Spartan wrote:100% it's the luxury tax. Just like the F8C is the SQ42 tax.
I would say that maybe heavy fighters are going up in price, but the Scorpius remained at 240 for DefenseCon.
Only thing I am not too thrilled about is the interior. I'd have preferred a pure fighter. But that's not Origin's style. Their first priority is looks, so nailed. Next is comfort, ergo the interior. And only then comes performance. If you want pure performance buy from a military firm like a Scorpius. So I am cool with the interior due to the lore.
I have no idea where I'll place it in the Spec. I'll think about it when I pick my jaw off the floor. It will be a strategic rank for sure tho. My initial thought is give it to Commanders to replace their Wolf which I can then push onto a specialist like the Assassin.
Also:
M80 fits the Jump perfectly

ResponsibleRub469 wrote:Actually the F35 is quite small. A helicopter, specially luxury ones may be bigger. It's a matter of you know, a civilian cannot own an F35 rather than they not fitting in a yacht.

-Reverence- wrote:I don't mean the size would be absurd, I'm just pointing out that it's absurd to have a cutting edge fighter on a civilian mega yacht lol. Like yeah there could be pirates or whatever but it's still a strange thing to have in your garage.
I would expect to have something like a shuttle etc.
