On Friday, CIG released a new hotfix that included the new Overdrive Initiative mission line. And the brand new Hornet F7C MK II which is a new version of the classic Hornet we've known for years. This update was both unexpected and also somewhat controversial. I wanted to take some time to give my impressions on the new platform and relay some of my concerns about what this means for ship sales going forward.

EDIT: Talking with my fellow Evocati I was notified that we NOT given the MKII as a being a part of ETF. Instead this was given to me initially by CIG due to me being a content creator. I was not notified of this from CIG. Regardless, as mentioned in the video, I purchased the ship with my own money anyway because I want to be honest in my critique and have skin in the game just as much as any of you, and will continue to due so where possible with future reviews and impressions. Just some extra transparency and context. Some time ago, Chris floated the idea that they may look into the idea of having older ships be surpassed by new versions of those ships and the older ones would be more for collectors. This may well be the start of that idea coming to fruition. Even so, I'm still salty about them not even getting the old model to gold standard before the new one. I really hope they do actually work to finishing those ships by bringing them up to standard rather than them languishing behind everything else over time. Looking at you Gladiator, my love who is unloved by CIG ;_; Any way, rant over. Let me know your thoughts, both on the Hornet MK2 and how CIG rolled things out, as I am curious about your opinions on the whole thing.

Was probably rushed out for the event leading up to Invictus tbh.. but I do hope they finish up the job soon. The turret looks very silly and yeah and I can't put my cap back on.. found that out to late.. 1st thing I tried at release was adding the turret of course lol. I like the thrusters more and general look inside/out of the ship though. The fact the main engine is not animated and the old version is, is a bummer I hope its just another oversight. Also the audio issues you noticed and for some reason I didn't get the paint addon even though I paid for it separate from the ship (and yes its not at home planet). I am right there with you and the frustration on releasing the ship like this but really don't think its the team working on it to blame. Marketing and/or other teams was probably the issue here. It could even be the ship was just copied from SQ42 and quickly modded to work for the PU.. "done". Hope not because if that's the case will have to wait a long time before it or the Mk1 is fixed. In the long run probably won't keep it, I have the F8C already, just made this part of a CCU chain I'm cooking =)

I do not understand why your angry. This is a great improvement to the previous hornet model cause it is outdated and trash looks like a floating piece of trash can or flying brick in space. The new hornet mk 2 model is sleek, aerodynamic, much cooler, more powerful size 4 and size 3 weapons, and they finally fix the interior and exterior of the spaceship's design language to be aggressive and yet agile and fast but not fast as a light fighter. I'm guessing you enjoy playing outdated spaceships like 8 or 9 years since S.C. is released.

That's absolutely incredible that there is a truck release INSIDE the cargo trunk. It's as if CIG knew what we'd do with it. I do get the rant though, because you'd expect new stuff to be gold standard. The Mk II seems like it's not specifically new, just the fact that we get it is and for a marketing event to make it worse. I don't see the 2 MFD's as a deal breaker though. Four feels optimal most of the time, but the UI footage we've seen shows very clear target and self status UI's in the corners. So whenever we get that the two MFD's in there will be free of that. On the plus side, while I haven't seen a schedule for the gold standard passes, this should be a priority one for Sq 42.

If only you could stash a prisoner in that 2 SCU space where you could load them up in a dropdown seat like the Anvil Hurricane. Then the lore could say something like, "In addressing the growing need for improvements in civilian law enforcement, Anvil answered the call by first drawing from lessons learned with the Hawk, and then taking inspiration from their best-selling Hurricane and incorporated its secondary-seating technology for the purposes of criminal transport."

The cargo trunk is useable if you know how. You can open it by clicking the "open exterior" button in the cockpit (or hitting the keybind if you've set one) and then place or remove cargo in it with a tractor tool. Of course, the button will also close it again. It's a bit cumbersome, but workable.

Really like this deep dive and I agree the lack of gold pass annoyed me also. We should be keeping up a standard as the project moves forward not taking a step back just for a money grab. I will say Iiked the event for the military upgrade, it gives us a reason or purpose to play. Still not sure if I’ll keep the mk2 or f8 but I’ll judge that when the military upgrade is out. I’ve always loved the F7 so happy to see it get a new upgrade and will probably favour the mk2

Great video, very detailed analysis. I learned a lot about the ship that I had initially missed. I understand your negative feedback, but I would also note that no one is buying the F7C MK2 to keep it. Everyone is buying it to upgrade it to the F7A Mk2. I'm not saying you are wrong but I think CIG expects ppl to upgrade. The entire point of the Overdrive event is to upgrade the ship so I guess CIG thought "why should we waste money fixing a ship that no one is going to keep anyway?". And all of this is going to happen in the next 2 months, it could potentially have taken them longer to get this ship to gold standard. Basically they are selling a token which instantly gets added to player's accounts without the need to run around digging through loot boxes.

I haven't flown (or owned) a F7 mkI in so long, I forgot how much utility the cockpit had with the 6 mfds, granted it took away quiet a bit of visibility. Also one thing to note is that you can actually earn the f7a mkII military upgrade by completing these overdrive missions they drop until invictus and since you need to own the f7c mkII on the pledge store to apply it this whole thing is effectively an F7A MKII military version sale, just being obscured so they can still claim that they "won't sell the f7a".

I doubt they're going to remove the Mk1 modules without replacing them with newer Mk2 versions. The Mk1 modules look out of place primarily because they sit so high on the model, which seems to be the case because they use the old Y-axis values meant for the Mk1 Hornet even though the Mk2 is slimmer. Should be easy to fix.

Unfortunately, This ship, like the F8C is simply an old, existing model that they tweaked a few performance numbers on and pushed out. These are not new ships. On the contrary; they are old ships from a previous era of the game. They were rushed out and suffered the indignity of not having the gold pass before release. I personally think the Devs weren't given the opportunity to gold pass these ships, before being ordered to release them. I feel that all they had time to do was to adjust the stats a bit. Definitely a missed opportunity here. As always, great video! Keep up the great work!

this ship is 8 years old at this point and was only just released. it was created and then not really touched since them, it seems.

They both check the style box for me. Hornet: better guns (as a solo player) more maneuverable( mabey? ) cargo box for looting bounties. Scorpius: more missiles, gold standard, more hull hp , 2 shield faces, and its the x wing of SC😅. I know I can melt the scorpius and buy it back in game and have extra store credits after getting a hornet . Which would you own ?

I’m a small at times casual backer. I believe I’m currently a Grand Admiral. I like the new Hornet design. I purchased Hornet Mark2 via upgrade from the LTI Cutter Rambler. I feel that CIG dropped the ball by not giving Mark 2 it’s own special equipment housing on day one. In my opinion the Mark2 should be backward-compatible with the Mark 1, weapons/equipment within limits of ship sizing. And yes the Gold standard at this point should be factored in all new ships at this point.

Hey, I've been enjoying your videos for quite a while, appreciate the professionalism and effort you put into them and the expertise on the subject matter. Ok, now about this Hornet Mk II. That was a pretty heart felt 10 minute rant there, basically half of the video. All of it completely true, I expect. They admitted that the Lightning came out in the spec it has because it was sitting on the shelf for years and then last year they decided they needed to make a lot of money in the third and fourth quarters, and rushed it out the door. And yes, this ship feels very similar to that. But you know, they gotta pay for that swank office building in Manchester and the hundreds of staff somehow. They've built an infrastructure that has a lot of future potential, but right now it's like the Titanic with passengers on board but no way to get out of the harbor. They're still using words like "pledge" and "support" and "reward", and excluding the words "pay" or "spend" or "product". The jury is still out, on whether they will make it out of dock at all, and whether they'll hit the iceberg or not. Only time will tell.

Not defending CIG here but pretty sure the mk2 and F8C were "released" in not gold standard state because they're not actually new ships, both have been in SC for a while but not usable by players, all CIG really did was let players use some older ships, ideally they should have given both a gold pass before selling them. Storage on the entry menu is called "magic storage" by the community I think.

Your not banking deep enough in atmo, Ollie43 did a very good job of showing/explaining the amount of banking you need to do to make the ship happy. Once you get there it flies well enough just at a crazy angle.

The reason it's half-assed is because this is basically the F7A which has been done for years, and they pulled an F8 on us. The F7A was supposed to unobtainium for most people, and only like 2 people actually own one. Instead they thought, "Hey, let's do another cash grab and pretend this is a civilian version and hide the military variant behind these buggy grind-fests that are impossible to do alone"

I was very disappointed this is not a gold pass ship: no weapon rack or proper storage like the Gladius or components accessible, it’s just the stock mk 1 with a new body and bigger weapon hard points. Nice looking but feels like a cash grab if I’m honest.

i'm going to give the benefit of the doubt to CR and CIG... MK2 could be a Wing Commander 4 stealth ship style thing in SQ42. although, i really figured the F8 would be that ship. regardless, it probably should have released at least close to a gold standard, i'm not sure what that is about. however, if it's not a WC4 type thing, then hopefully "MK2" ships don't become a trend.

i assume that updating the old hornet was discussed and instead marketing suggested selling it as a new ship . to add insult to injury they have us run this really cool chain mission for a "free" upgrade to the F7A but the condition is to buy the new MK2 .,. Yes this company runs like a mobile game

Grab what money? You don't need any new money to get it since they didn't even offer a warbond ccu. It's just a new candy flavor for ppl who have not donated at all yet. Unlike the F8 (that not only didn't give anything for free but didn't even offer a ccu), this event gives an actual reward for participating.
