Coolest Looking Ship

just out of curiosity… newtek claims that one can develop graphical engines with LightWave… maybe it’d be possible to rewrite FL’s, so we can have our ancient fav game look like… dunno… Halo or so… somewhat graphically really measurable for the coming ten years^^

At Gisteron : Good new!
At Griff : No the Li Dread is a mix of an Eagle head, a sub marin and a Shark.

Speculativ point (again ^^) :
In the FL univers there is probably an Eagle Shark, I will do an Artwork of it. Then, I will rename the li dread, the Eagle Shark class Liberty Dreadnought. Do you think so?

I remember the lads from Top Gear made an abortion of a car called the “Hammerhead-i Eagle Thrust”

Aka Geoff. Sexiest car I’ve ever seen.

Sorry for the necro, but I happen to like (of the ships that can’t carry Level 10 weapons) the Hammerhead VHF.

Of the ones that CAN carry Level 10s - by a small margin the Sabre, but the Titan is pretty good too.

The game is ancient - in a way, every post here is necro Shouldn’t prevent us from posting!

#1 Hammerhead
#2 Dromedary
#3 Bretonian Gunboat / Titan

Maybe the Dromedary isn’t so much exceptionally looking cool, rather than being cool. I had a very good time with it.

I like the Bretonian heavy fighters, myself, until I can afford a Bounty Hunter ship.

The problem with the Order ships is that they’re extremely cheap but then when it comes time to trade it in - urk! Suddenly it’s only worth 50 credits on trade-in!

for me hmmm, toss up between the Defender, Drake and Dagger.

best looking capital ship is deff. the Battleship Osiris.

Defender - sexy starfighter…unfortunately because of the RPG game elements the most shitty HF

Nomad Battleship.

You mean the jumbo bulb and “SHOOT ME” was written on it?

No offense, just remember the time when i play (unRPG) NR2.29 and flight my Nomad Battleship to New York, outside Manhattan. Everyone who saw me just say hello with their guns even Justice I. And only thing i can do is… repair… repair… repair…

I like Eagle, quick killer, fast runer, 100% rate to kill Titan if use by right hand.

The nomad ships are one of the most boring looking ships ever created.

Valkyre!

Maybe if you look at them when not in action. The first time I encountered them in-game (which, iirc, was in the purplish Edge World system) I was in in awe.

And for what they are supposed to represent, they are perfect. Imho, at least

Rhino is easily the best looking ship.

That made me lol

The one ship I always wanted to fly is the Junko’s Defender. My favorite ship was the Titan from the Corsairs. Too bad it was moving so slow.

Well when you 1st encounter a nommie BS it looks impressive - the size, the glowing insides, but from the design side they are not sot so much. Too simple textures, the shape is also primitive compared to other alien vessels from various space games or shows, movies. The GB look better tho, but the fighters are also not an eye candy. I think they could look like better, with some mechanical parts, like an exoskeleton.

They have some kind of skeleton, but inside and very bad visible.

The Bretonian Clydesdale. The thing is a Bug in space and it looks beautiful for it.
