Definitely looks like the interior of a modern Airbus. Looks a lot smaller without all the seats though. Look at all that leg room... Paradise for a tall schmuck like me.

Actually that's the interior of a 787 Dreamliner, not a 767

Do you have a picture of the inside of a Beluga? I've never seen one.

Had a few quick questions:
Have a MAC and therefore can't get horizons.

1.  At great expense equipped a Dropship "Alienator 1-6 ver WTFH" in Pleiades to battle Thargoids, seems the devs changed the game and now when you attack scouts (have defeated those in the past) the mother ships arrive and the shit show begins.  Was thinking about equipping a maneuverable, and cheap ship and get in back of a lone mother ship and start attacking and try to stay on top of the Thargoid, and use mines to keep the swarm from attacking my stern. Think this might work? Or are Thargoids unbeatable without Horizon's engineered shields and weapons?

2. What are pinnable blueprints and how do you get them? This shows up on my screen without the "horizons only" warning but can't seem to find where you get these anywhere.

Pinnable blueprints come from engineers. Engineers are only available with 'Horizons'.

Are they implying space legs?
ARE THEY IMPLYING SPACE LEGS?!
*twitches uncontrollably*

Please don't feed my hopes just to disappoint me afterwards, Frontier.

They used in engine assets to make the trailer so yes technically they are hinting that space legs are a ting just not in this update

I really wouldn't read anything into it. The very first tease trailer showed pilots walking towards their ships, but the game didn't include spacelegs then.

Edit: Apologies, posted this under one of my alts in error.

Not in this week's release, no.

@Demon Lord Nox: I'm aware, but one can dream about these legs showing up in-game on 4.0, right?

@Jade Lincoln: According to David Braben, space legs were always a core vision; that is, since before the initial release. They haven't been teasing space legs on the following up teasers, and lately this has been one of the most requested features. So the fact that they decide to tease it again now makes me hope they're looking into it towards a not-so-far future.

Heh... As you're no doubt aware, FDev is glacial about updates of this magnitude. I'm glad to see you've later responded with something a little less... pie-in-the-sky... keep that in mind when it comes to this update.

Thanks, was trying to avoid bootcamp, but that's probably the only option.
