On the ship matrix, it appears that the Freelancer DUR lost 62% of its cargo space that it used to have. Instead of only 25% less than the base model previously listed?
TL;DRThe Freelancer DUR, MIS and MAX ship matrix cargo figures reflect the old hangar-ready models, and improved cargo numbers are expected when those variants are built out later this year.
Why was that? Is that for a ground vehicle like all the expedition ships have? No, the Freelancer DUR does not have a new exploration vehicle or anything added to it. Steve's answer was simply that the values listed on the ship matrix for the Freelancer DUR, the MIS, and the MAX variants are all based on the existing model, the pre-rework model that's available in hangars now. You remember that those variant models were built out as hangar-ready quite some time ago. They are not using the scaled value of the much bigger reworked base model for the Freelancer. Basically, we went through and we measured the models that we have, which is why it appears to have so much less cargo now than the base model. When it comes time to build out the DUR, the MAX and the MIS, which you can see on our public roadmap is scheduled for the latter half of this year, we will have the improved cargo numbers for the Freelancer variants. So basically what you're seeing right now is the actual measurements of the model that's in the hangar right now, which is why they're so much smaller. When it comes time to build them out, you'll get the better, bigger, badder numbers.
