Capital ships and single normal ships
will there be new ships any time soon? before the game goes of "test time"?
and in the same time:
will they give us a chance to buy a capital ship/frigate and pilot them, (like it was sujseted) with ports for repairing the fraindly 'wings' (oF the nation!) like in a station?
and when will the release new types BIG ships? if they will make any new ones at all. :|

Err... hmmm.
I'd like to field this question, but the best I can say is be patient. I'm certain alot more ships are planned, but when we will see them is anyone's guess.

There will be user-pilotable cap ships before the final release, since they are listed as a feature for the final release and I bet the devs won't release an untested feature.
They remarked about updating or even possibly remaking all the ships (notice all) after the E3. I'll have to check it when I keep playing again. Looks like I've joined you, Renegade.
yea but the ships souldent be able to be flown by 1 persion its mutch to larg for that. insted it would need a crew to handel turets and stuff. now far later in dev they should make it so you can wal around inside that big thing and talk to the crew but that would need alot of animating and i wouldent expect to see such things untill this game is near the pay ver. couse ai turets on something like that would be unbalenced. can you imagion abought 12 ai guns assalting a fighter aming better then a player can.
that is what they have with the frig, but u dont see alot of players dieing from it every min.
players are better then what you give them credit for!
they can dodge the frig fire, and there is no reson they should not dodge other cap ships fire.
but an cap ship cant be like a frig!!
a frig has bots to protect it.
the cap ship with player pilot will probebly have other players defending it. this can be for fee or nation defense.
the def players will be very good fighters:
1) because the cap will need very good def. it is an atraction for pirates!
2) the fighters of the cap will be very well trained because of the meny attaks, or it wont survive.
i like the idia of crew for a cap ship.
insted of the guns being directed by AI, it can be maintained by other players. like they are in a ship, but they can only shoot and comunicate with the pilot.

I would like to see new ships also. Preferably with more radical differences between them in terms of both strategic and tactical strengths. There are several threads on this topic already, and all I can say is:
1) Hopefully the devs, once recovered from E3, will post some info here and on the "in progress" page; this will give us a better idea of what ship changes are coming.
2) Hopefully, as others inevitably post about this topic, they take an extra 20 seconds to run a spell checker.
/me grumps off to find a cup of coffee....
PS - I personally don't care if I ever get to pilot a capital ship. It's not really my style. But I understand why everyone else wants them.
