    Entropia Universe auctions off 25 special edition spaceships

    Gothenburg, Sweden – December 9, 2014 /Entropia Universe/ – Entropia Universe AB, the largest Massively Multiplayer Online Real Cash Economy (MMORCE) game, announced today it will be auctioning off 25 high-performance spacecraft for its popular real-cash MMO. The new two-seater luxury vessels feature a warp drive for rapid interplanetary travel, along with unrivaled handling and top speed, critical when operating in potentially hostile regions.

    The Quad-wing Interceptor is a medium fighter capable of space and atmospheric flight. Its 4-wing configuration is commonly seen patrolling space stations and mother ships to fend off pirate attacks. This fast and agile ship is the bread and butter interceptor for most private armies, although it’s also a favorite among privateers due to its weapons load out and speed.

    Interesting.......

    Motherships and Privateers with 50? person limit per ship, and now the new quad wing with 1pilot + 1 passenger all warp capable.

    Speed will be an advantage in pvp, warp will be great for single person VIP.
    I have a feeling that it wont be long before normal non warp enabled ships are unable to cross servers in space.

    25x50k = 1.25 million ped

    What have the last few "Chrismas Sales" brought in?
    (I'm not convinced that there are enough people interested to buy all 25 at that price, but will be interesting to watch)

    Still thinking about this...
    This is a much more convenient means of traveling for the non business oriented players who have Privateers for that purpose now.

    Being so similar and selling for 5000+ USD each I wonder whether Ferrari could actually take legal actions. Anyone having any idea regarding such matters?

    Iirc, there was a post by MA stating they were going to show off some of the new affiliates they were working with. Maybe Ferrari is one of them?

    50k+ that's out of my price range. But will be interested to see performance characteristics compared to normal quad.

    I certainly hope they mean that this new quad is simply "warp capable". If it actually features a warp drive, instead of just have an attachment slot for a warp drive, I know a good number of mothership and privateer owners who might be a tad bit miffed about that (myself included).

    I've come to admire MA greatly...they really know the meaning of "there's a sucker born every minute." And they have populated a virtual world with them....lol

    i really like the concept. Would suit my play style. But the price doesn't work for me. I guess I will keep traveling the slow way.

    I haven't checked sources or anything but I'm pretty sure this is a joke... it doesn't match the shape under the blanket. Plus that price is a bit unreasonable.

    Yeah, the facebook pic makes me wonder... Even if they're serious, with that selling price, the joke is definitely on us!

    I'll be disappointed if that's all it turns out to be... another uber priced ship for the same people who already own a mothership and privateer.
