Xeno VHF - "Rancor" - Reeves - 01-15-2019
Hey Vsauce, Reeves here!
So this has come up quite a few times in the past and there have been attempts at modelling a Xeno VHF to more or less fill the obvious void that the xenos deal with. Now to preface this, let me say that the Xenos do by all means enjoy a very wide selection of guns of various refires and speeds. But what the xenos have always lacked is access to a fighter that isn't inherently quirky. The Eagle and Prosecutor are great ships in their own right, don't get me wrong. But they both fly similarly, i.e they must be flown with an emphasis on early-turning and they aren't necessarily the most.. versatile of fighters. The Xenos don't even get access to the BW line of ships, which bars them from using something like the sabre, which if access was allowed to then I wouldn't even be making this post right now. The xenos are the fringe that have been run over roughshod their whole lives, they are sick and tired of the status quo. I've begun to believe their ships only hold themselves together with immense conviction. At this point it's just long-standing resentment. Resentment. Rancour. Yes, I'm getting to a point.
Some time ago there was talk of a second fighter being implemented alongside the Prosecutor, so that the HF had access to a group-fight capable ship. But I always found that odd given that they already have access to the Guardian and it would just give them twice the options. Nevertheless, it's been more than a year since I've heard anything about the "Verdict". And I'm sure it's just collecting dust somewhere. I've heard various mixed announcements about progress on the subject of a Xeno VHF, but I'm never sure how far along such a project has come or if it's being given any priority. Would be neat if a dev could comment on this subject in yellow for me on whether or not a Xeno VHF may or may not be coming in the near-future.

Tl;dr = I want this ship implemented but as a Xeno VHF, name it the "Rancor" meaning bitterness or resentfulness, especially when long standing. AYYY or nay, just hit the vote button. Try not to get too philosophical with your debates and keep it within the topic. Just slap a xeno emblem on the wings.

Yes, please. Give Xeno some love.

Give Xeno no love, Eagle is their girl.
Lovely ship though, give it to them if they really don't love their ship anymore and want to stray from their origins

Don't see why not. HF already has a VHF. Give it a gritty looking texture and it would fit as a Xeno VHF. (Maybe give it the same cockpit the Guardian/Avenger/Neph have to fit with the theme of the other ships?)

Nice prototype. I'd like to view at him in the game

Dude, that thing is sick!
Most unlawful groups have their own ship lines these days, or at least a few snub craft. I think it’s time the Xenos dipped their feet into ship designing.
It’d be neat if this little beauty had two centered gun slots like the Guardian does. This would allow for 3/3 hull/deb loadouts whilst remaining symmetrical, which allows further versatility.
Yes, please!

looks awesome! I hope the textures can add a patch of ducttape here and there

That's muh gif?!?!??!
Jokes aside I always loved the Verdict model.

Is there any particular reason that I wasn't consulted about the use of my model for this? Like, I'm kind of vaguely amused, not upset or anything, but you do know how to reach me...
