Hi! Especially hi to the developers!

Since we still don't have the Trident Type S and P, can we atleast have some information on them? There are a few questions that have been raised in the past and it'd be cool to have them answered. If they however were answered before, it'd be cool if players could link them here so I can mark them answered.

Question 1: Will it be possible to have more than one Trident at the same time? Or will the Type S and P be upgrades to the Type M so that we stay limited to one capship per character?

Question 2: Can you give any statistical details for the new models? How many weapon ports will they hav? What role are they supposed to fit?

Question 3: Will they be "better" than the Trident Type M? Or will the Type M get the role of the average model and the other Types will be the "extreme hauler" and the "extreme combat ship"?

Question 4: Could you maybe even post the building requirements for them so the bored veterans can start gathering the parts while you're busy developing them?

Question 5: WHEN will get get them???

Infos, please!

Finally! You're asking the right questions rather than pointlessly pushing for more ship variants. Kudos!!

-1 they are like Santa Claus, does he tell you what you'll get fur Christmas?

You won't get them Sieger, ever.

Seriously, before I started playing this game in 2010, they were slated to come out.

I'm going to be able to fly my Aegis Retaliator in full open universe of Star Citizen before I get to fly a Type S dent.

Sad face all around :'(

+1 I'm interested to see if we can have them all at once or what-not...

Thanks for the support, all!

Tripod war of the worlds - If Santa is gonna let me wait several years I'll start asking that man some questions. You bet!

TheRedSpy - Thanks for these positive vibes. I still believe! You can't take that from me!

SR_7136_HELLCAT - Yeah having multiple Tridents at once would be cool. You could place them around the 'verse tactically. Would be very interesting for sure.

yah man +1

where those tridents at i ask

Good idea sieger, shame we will never GET the type S and type P

So.....no reply from GS, thanks guys.

Relax - Incarnate has been traveling for business.

Please Sir, May I have some more?

<Insert pic of sad faced little boy holding up a bowl>

Since we are kinda on the subject how things going for the cappie experiment? Have we been building them too fast? are there too many? Too many players retiring shortly after building their cappie? Overall has the introduction of cappies been a positive for the game?

one more +1 couldnt hurt

Hi, I understand the goals here, but I can only partially address them.

Barring an unforeseen technical issue, I expect you'll be able to own multiple Trident variants, although I intend to also support people disassembling Type Ms and using the parts to "upgrade".

Variants of capships can be expected to be like variants in the rest of the game.. some are "better", but many are "different", and improvement is in the eye of the beholder.

I won't speak to specific requirements or configurations, because it hinges on a gameplay change that I've been looking towards for some years (in fact, it's why they were named "S" and "P" types). This gameplay change gives greater relevance to Trident variants.

Anyway, you can watch for an upcoming Newsletter that will talk a bit more about this.

Alright! Thanks for the reply incarnate.

It's good to hear that you plan to let us own more than one. I know of people who have been blindly "pre-building" so that as soon as the new Types come out, they can immediatly build them. I suppose these guys would be really annoyed if we stayed limited to one per person.

Looking forward to that greater relevance for capships.

I'll get back to being patient then I suppose. Maybe that newsletter will clear more things up...

Well that sums things up for me(kinda)

Now we play the waiting game...
