I ask this because I am now a owner of a KSE Firespray (and a pretty hardcore roleplayer) and the whole purpose of me getting the firespray was mainly for uniqueness... im a master bounty hunter (and dont even give me your rant on it not being a bounty hunter ship.. yes i know it was made for law enforcement..) but what im trying to say is I dont see anyone flying this around so I thought to myself... what did people think when the slave I landed outside their little camp... Death to whoever had a mark on there head cuz "DUN DUN DUN..... Boba Fett is here.. YOU DIRTY BAZ NITCH!" ...
So i thought I would add some color to my character and get a firespray so I feel like i have something unique to fly to my bounties (yes I fly through space for bounties.. unless im hunting player jedi).
My main question here (now that we are through with the pointless rant)... who else thinks the firespray should be a MP ship?... Im not asking to have it be something gigantic.. we gotta keep this real... but obviously this isnt just a small fighter ship.. am I right?... you walk ONTO the ship.. you dont just jump in the cockpit like all the other fighters... boba fett and jango fett both walked around on this ship and we all know theres some head room in there and ATLEAST enough room to stuff a bounty whos been frozen in carbonite.... I dont want anything changed on the outside.. its all good there... (except maybe ONE more gun.. but i can live) but lets add a inside.. hm?...
Just something small... i want to click "leave station" and be able to go through my gear on board before I land to take down my mark... *sigh*.. im wasting my time though im sure..... just thought I would get that off my chest...

I think it's a great idea. I'd love to walk around in my firespray even if it's just a tiny cargo hold or something.

Would get my vote, in general id love to see some lesser MP ships. Imperial shuttle would be a good example with a small cockpit and then a back room for the cargo/passengers.

Well I took the Firespray up the other day and had a variety of ships sit next to me to see the difference.
A scyck cockpit is just big enough to fit the pilot.. and the firespray cockpit window could fit about 10 or more of those scyck cockpit windows.. so just the cockpit alone should be bigger than it is... if you look inside your ship with your mouse on cockpit camera, you can see that you pretty much have no room... and from episode II, you can see boba fett in the cockpit of the Slave I and it looks way bigger...
Maybe im drunk.. But I think its way smaller than it should be right now.

Dreaming here, but yI'd love to see the KSE be similar to the Krayt where you could take up a second passanger and have them control maybe a turret that only fires out the back. POB would be ok, but it would need to be extremely small. If you consider cockpit and the engines, there isn't much room left.

I absolutely LOVE my Firespray. I think it would be completely kick butt if we could "leave ship station" and have room for storage or gear. Now, as far as having a gunner position.. well.. there's no "turret" so to speak so I'm not as groovey on that. But being able to carry a passenger or two would be cool.
After CU I will be MBH/MSmuggler/FS. I too like to Roleplay a bit and have collected most of my set of BH armour. I agree this could add alot in regards to roleplay as well as smuggler/bounty hunter. We all should know by now it's not a "Bounty Hunter" ship, but on the otherhand it is expensive, iconic, and just flat out fun!!! Giving you the ability to exit the pilot seat and repair components in flight would also add to the iconic nature of this ship.
I totally support this idea as long as it could be done retroactively without having to go out and buy a new deed!

I remember seeing a floorplan for a Firespray somewhere. It looked pretty roomy actually, with living quarters and everything(or enough room to accomidate a wandering Bounty Hunter I suppose).

I have the book with the Floorplan to the Firespray. I own one in the game to but am not yet a master pilot so i cant use it yet. Buutttt........
The KSE is pretty large on the inside. There is a regular sized cell for carying a prisoner, a storage room, and a ladder that leads "up" to the cockpit. Dam Lucasarts wrote the dam book.......They should have figured this out when making JTL in my opinion.
But your all right....its like a small 3 room apartment ship. Too bad nobody told SOE that....

There's the second seat in Slave I, where boba sits in Ep II. The cockpit from that looks pretty hyawge, so there's pleanty of space.
Maybe the Devs knew, and just didn't want to make another MP ship? It'd be cool if they did though, especially for RP Bounty Hunters.
