Original post:

Not yet, whenever they appear I will post them
If they are anything like how the nostromo were done then the backpage images will come out weeks before the gamepage files.

 

Nice to see a new addition to the forums area, and well done Okapi, glad to see they let you have a place to share your insights! Thanks for your work, and to those that may post in the future who keep us intrigued!

Best regards

Hyp

 

well ok great new things for ppl to cry abut just wait and see

 

then come the disigns on trade?

 

The Nostromo designs probably won't go on trade due to them looking to be obtained from friend invites - would get rid of the friend invite incentive if they could be picked up from trade.

As for the Goliath designs, we only know there names so not much can be said there. With that said they do sound to be running the diplomacy theme that the nostromo had, especially with names such as "sovereign and peacemaker", so it seems probable to me that they will be something to do with friend bonuses too and wouldn't be on trade either.

However that is simply just my opinion on how I see it, we have to wait and see to find out how it really all works and if they will be on trade

 

The Nostromo designs look pretty sweet. Better start saving for a 5th hanger

I was happy when they finally brought back the Nostro, now I think it will become a popular set to acquire.

Peace

 

Couple updates:
What do you get in addition to the nostromo?




Edit:
Test server is open.

Edit 2: Test server is closed ^^

 

Wow. That's a whole lot of junk...wish I knew some people who didn't already play the game lolz.

 

The design probs wont do anything, and on a nost? i can't remember the last time i see a nost in game. I will tell ya this nost better be comparable to a lenov in lowers or theres no point to it at all. Does look the part tho pretty pictures lol

 

-Ambassador Design-
"Lunar Industries engineers say the flag ship of this ship design series is built to be able to compete with ships like the Goliath. To get hold of this exclusive design you need to be a real Ambassador." - DO FB page

 

Tarn CPU?

 

the 10X cloak cpu

 

Since when has it been called the Tarn CPU?

May just be because I haven't been on in awhile...

 

I've never seen it called that before, I just thought it was a place-holder name for something else. It could a 10 cloak CPU for all I know but there is definitely not anything called the "Tarn" at its official name ^^

 

Tarnmodul - cloaking in german or tarnen -camouflage
