Looks like players will be receiving their Idris in-game starting tomorrow.
Oh my… that video is just pure sex.
Sure I won’t ever own nor serve on an Idris, but I am happy for all Idris owner that they finally got their little ship :)
I saw something about a $20million loss and thinking about how they said they wouldn’t release the Idris until after sq42 so you got to experience it there first, I’m thinking they need the money so they’re doing this now lol
Definitely glad the Idris owners get to have their ship though!

Didn’t they said something similar regarding the F8C?
I believe so. I’d have to imagine they didn’t really expect sq42 to not be released until 2026 so I guess it makes sense to let these things go now if they really need the cash infusion.
Is this a complete Idris (i.e. actual gameplay for a full set of players), or this an incomplete variant?
Complete Idris with actual gameplay for a full set of players.
You can currently tour one in-game at ArcCorp (top of one of the buildings in the Plaza).
Previously, we have only been able to hijack them from NPCs, but we were unable to customize them. You couldn’t get in any turrets, the medical bay wasn’t working, and the torpedo room was missing.
With this, there are no missing rooms, there’s a medical bay, we can customize the ship (choose between a massive railgun or a beam laser, a few different paint options, and a few different torpedo options that are larger than any others that were previously in-game). I’m assuming we’ll be able to swap out components as well, I don’t think we’ve seen all the variations yet for a ship of this size.
We’ll know more tomorrow.
Got it. Cheers!
