    Very nice ship, very good and well edited review.
    And especially nice music! ;)
    Never thought how well the sc2 wol soundtrack fit with Elite!

    so it can definitely hold it's own it seems. Not a lot of power in that class 4 distro, but its enough for defensive purposes.

    • @Alswulf
      @Alswulf  6 місяців тому +1

      new gen ships, tech improvements - I think it's quite ok way to bring fresh air into the organics for all gameplay aspects. Old python is still capable to do everything at average+ level in my eyes.
      But specialised ships are better for their purpose

    Good thing they gave us new ships so we get another way to support the game. They have done this years ago to increase their revenue. Many complain about having spend extra for new ships. Most of those are also complaining about most things of this game
    Think they are really sc fanboys that spent all their money on sc.🤣

    So Python and Type 7 are now redundant?

    • @1heUndertaker
      @1heUndertaker 6 місяців тому +3

      No ! Unless *you* think they are, they are not.
      People can choose to think they are redundant or choose to think of them as alternatives.
      Some Cmdrs may prefer the Type-8, or may prefer the Python, or the Type-7 ...
      These new ships are options, for choice of different strengths and weaknesses, preferences for looks, for roleplay ... many reasons 🙂

      @@ReginaldesqSo, I think that by individuals having the choice,
      of whether or not something is needed or useful,
      the word 'redundant' fulfils it's definition .... and could indeed be considered 'redundant' in the original comment? 😁
      Redundant ... and hence, subjectively, for people who choose to decide, the word *may* be considered useful or not - redundancy is perhaps after all, subjective and circumstantial in application ?
