I'm in the beta but i have not tested the kse firespray can it be a multi ship or is it a singel player ship you can walk around in. In the books boba fetts ship a kse firespray was plenty enough room for more then 1 person i'm just wondering this and i would like a response as soon as possibel

If you interpret the description of the ship in the right way, it doesn't necessarily have to be the same ship as Slave 1 was. If you look at the two ships, Slave 1 was much "fatter", especially across the cockpit. It could be that they altered the design to make it smaller, and more usable as a single-person ship. Maybe.

"This is seen by most in the industry as a blatant attempt by KSE marketing to ride on the coat-tails of the reputation developed by the sole surviving original prototype Firespray and its pilot, a bounty hunter named - Boba Fett'."
Fett's is jsut the original prototype, so this is the final

I just got the Firespray and actually Im quite dissappointed..
I heard it was a good ship, with good maneuverability, but when I fly it its like a TIE Bomber ffs.
Why would people make these claims? Is there something I've missed?
Please

TIE bomber isn't too bad if you have a high-YPR engine running overload3. What are the speed/YPR stats on your engine though?

Simply because some people, including myself,thinkthe FS is one of the best ships in the game, I've flown all the Imp and Freelance ships, the only ones i can't compare it to are the Reb ships. You have a much higher y/p/r than me in your engine, so by rights you should be able to fly rings round me.... either that or you had one heck of a TIE Bomber.
The FS has it's problems, like the sliding target reticule,however, Itake it to Kessel, to Deep Space, i PVP in it and It's the only ship i'll take on tier 5 Droid fighters in.
You asked me in-game about the firespray, i told you what i thought. I also told you it depends on your flying style. I'd suggest you take a little more time to getused to it,and if you don't like it... sell it.

You PVP in a Firespray? I admire your testicular fortitude. Those things make a target like a flying door.
They are pretty nice ships, though--high mass with excellent handling for being so heavy. I'm not sure why the original poster would be having trouble with that. When I flew one, I found it significantly more responsive than a Bomber and slightly more so than a Rihkxyrk or Krayt, so I'd have to second the advice to be patient with it. It's definitely an unusual ship, one that requires some time to get comfortable with, but once you're in tune with the peculiarities of the Firespray, it can be a very effective ship.

The FS isfantastic to PVP in,you got all that mass to put some really nice equipment in.... if they were cheaper/easier to get, i'm sure a lot more people would.... well as soon as they fix the targeting reticule. (but i've flown enough thati don't rely on that anymore)
And yeah it's big,but as the saying goes, "size isn't important, it's what you do with it that counts"

My Bomber handles like a dead cow... doubt the firespray is worse then that.
