And if you recall the trailor in August, not all the terran's ships have installed all of their turrets.
Personally, I think this battleship have 2 XL forward-facing main guns, 24 L turrets, and 20~30 M turrets. That's reasonable.

[xant]

Would be cool to have those two XL batteries for smaller targets and one huge XXL railgun for bigger game. THAT would be convincing firepower.

[mr.WHO]

I did an ultra zoom in paint to what I thought is M-size dock - what I though is orange landing stripes is not actually orange and looks slightly different than orange lines on landing pad.

[mr.WHO]

Any chance for Frigate or Carrier screenshot before Christmas break?

[xant]

By the end of the week they will give us a christmas card which shows a new ship. But it is really that and nothing more. And it is the last thing for this year.

So yeah, I hope they show either the heavy fighter or the frigate.

[mr.WHO]

So yeah, I hope they show either the heavy fighter or the frigate.

I was under impresion that the Wide folding wings fighter is a heavy fighter - it has visible 4 guns.

[xant]

It may be, but it doesn't have to. We also have two other factions to consider, at least the Yaki ought to have a heavy fighter of their own.

Amazzing work, can wait the new DLC and hope for a good PLOT story.

Merry Christmas to all you guys

[ZombiePotatoSalad]

I don't know what the model name of that battleship would be, but I know the perfect name for mine:

Sol Imperator.

[dreamer2008]

Will the next DLC add a proper Pirate faction(Yaki)? I've seen some mentions of a Yaki ship on the thread, and it would make sense with this DLC.

I know we can be some sort of semi pirates right now, but I really hope that a new proper pirate faction would be added, with its own specific ships, sectors, plot, like the Yaki in X3. Maybe even a pirate start for a full dedicated pirate playthrough...

[mr.WHO]

Any chance for more ship reveal?
Like Frigate, Carrier and Auxilary ship?

[warjager]

After seeing this awersome terran battleship, i just hope that the other race will have their own as well!! Btw. good job on that one egosoft, this is truely a work of art!! too bad old ship dont have this kind of detail to them (...yet?).

I would be glad to see even already shown warships in a new screenshot or animation gif.
I wonder how the cockpit and the uniform of Terrans will look like?

If the uniforms are similar to the ones described in the books they will be overall/flight suits with the vitruvian man emblazoned on the side. I think during the trailer or one of the screenshots you can see the symbol on the side of a ship.

Recently read "Farnham's Legend" and "Nopileos", they were in the book warehouse for over 10 years before I bought them! There is a description of the USC form, but in X4: Cradle of Humanity it seems like there will be no USC and ATF.

[xant]

USC and ATF were things of the time before the shutdown. But in order to ensure the security and continuing stability, they were reorganized into the first Terran [redacted], for a safe and secure society.

[Teladi CEO]

Interesting, thanks. I wonder if the new Terran ships will be half USC and half ATF design. The battleship seems like a mix.

[Meteor1981]

Dear Egosoft,
please some update about the release?

[Teladi CEO]

Sshhh Sshhh! The only thing more elusive than CoH release date is Starfields release date! In all seriousness they’re a small company, they’ll release it when it’s ready. I’m guessing we might receive an update or possibly a release date in the near future, maybe it will release April 1st like Split Vendetta.

[linolafett]

I wonder how the cockpit and the uniform of Terrans will look like?

It looks very nice! =D (its not like i can say anything else lol, but really i like that asset)
Sleek and clean design, a bit inspired by the space x dragon capsule and some automotive design.
