So basically... Beluga, Fed dropship, alliance challenger, T7 and Asp scout all have the same excuse of "I dont know what its for." Yet somehow the Asp scout is considered the "Worst ship" unfair much?
@gamingsnipsandbits5 сағат бұрын
Honestly the Challenger is right up there with the Chieftain for me. It's a fine ship for AX, just has a different play style. As for the Asp Scout, it's not a wise initial purchase, but it's really grown on me the last couple of months. It needs a lot of fettling to get right, but with the right combination, it's great fun

My Beluga idles at 14.6% heat. I only use it for Luxury Group Travel, otherwise Type 8 for everyone else! So it's super niche for me.

@mikssityar33635 күн бұрын
After Piloting both the chieftain and the federal assault brick I'd choose the brick everyday of the week, because it is what it was designed to be: a brick - Simple, inelegant, straightforward, the international symbol of violent blunt force trauma. Stack mass on it and the cockpit becomes the secret 5th large hard point, and there is just something piloting a ship knowing you can shrug off anything that hits you, turn a 180 with its disgustingly sharp maneuverability, tail it, then send back twice the amount of pain

Give the type 7 a size 2 weapon slot or an extra size 6 optional and a big ol gas tank to be a long hauler. The T7 gets better jump range under load than the t8 already. Just make it a dedicated long hauler
@MrDeatrich7 күн бұрын
Ive not had a dedicated mining vessel because none of the ships seemed to check all the boxes. Was considering converting my AspX for it before i heard this one was coming. This one seems to check all the dedicated mining boxes, and looks like a miner to boot.

I just didn't like the Vulture because of the terrible jump range, but after I added a Guardian Booster module it became "good enough" in its weakest area and then I found it much more enjoyable. One use for it is Odyssey ground missions where you can bounty hunt targets of opportunity on the way there and back. I also like Gaming's config of plasma accelerator + beam laser best for weapon load out. Beam laser makes short work of shields, and plasma accelerator makes short work of everything else. Since hitting small ships with fixed weapons is beyond me, I use a gimbled beam laser so I can handle the small targets I wouldn't be able to hit otherwise.
@Z1gguratVert1go7 күн бұрын
This is my favorite ship. I almost forgot about it, but when Odyssey came out and I wanted to do foot missions, I rediscovered the Cobra as it is the most fun to land on the ground and run around with. Fits a Scorpion or Scarab nicely, which is good since the only way I don't suck at ground combat is by running over the bad guys.

If pressed to name a favorite ship, I would say the Krait MK2. I named mine the _Starbound_ and it's my best all-arounder. I just don't like the Python, it doesn't handle as well, and really the only thing it's better at is trading and for trading I like my Type 9 and 10 better. And yes I named my mining ship the _Minecraft_ Edit: Krait MK2 is my favorite medium ship. Favorite ship of all time: Cobra MK3
@Z1gguratVert1go7 күн бұрын
My type 9 got blown up too often. My type 10 does not. A Type 9 with a fighter works well too, the fighter distracts the pirate lone enough to jump away. A type 10 with a fighter is a pirate meat-grinder.

It's interesting you compared the Mk2's looks to the Mamba, because my Mamba is what it is probably going to replace. I'm also miffed that the plain white paint job, which is my favorite on most ships, isn't 600 arcs like it is on every other ship but a whopping 6000. Fortunately the default paint job is very suitable.
@Z1gguratVert1go8 күн бұрын
This is definitely a combat ship. I pulled all of the fully engineered weapons off of my Krait M2 to get my Python m2 up and running faster, and found I could add one additional LARGE hardpoint on top of that. This thing is a kill-wagon. Ooh, I could name it that: The _Kill-Wagon_
@Z1gguratVert1go8 күн бұрын
It's okay for a ship to become obsolete every now and then, it adds a bit of realism. Although that's easy to say if it's not one of _your_ favorites getting obsoleted. Still, the correct response for this I think is to find a way to modify the Type 7 to give it a niche of its own. Perhaps an in-universe upgrade package you can buy that modifies it into having a better combination of module options to keep it competitive in some way. Perhaps tougher hull to make it more of an armored car in space, or a potentially higher cargo capacity than the Type 8 (say due to a new engine mod that allows for smaller engine module that delivers the same thrust, so you can make an optional bay a size bigger for more cargo or something). Maybe add weapon hardpoints so it can be tougher than the Type 8, do something! My Type 9 can't survive without me being able to throw a fighter at an interdicting pirate to distract him so I can run away (well, waddle away, it is a Type 9). Maybe allow a one-time modification (paid for by Lakon perhaps?) that you can now put a fighter bay on the Type 7? After all the dinky Keelback can do that.

The Dolphin is NOT a luxury liner… It is a Luxury RV. It is a Private Party Bus. It is a Mobile Vacation Home. It is a Sanctuary Among The Stars. Those rich buggers (other than myself, thank you very much) will never set foot in my deep space swimming marvel. I have other ships. I have bigger ships. I have a fleet carrier… None of them is “home” like this smooth riding, cold running, nimble footed wonder. And I maintain that it is an exploration vessel.

All I need these days is a small, quick, agile ship with good hardpoint placement and weapon convergence. It helps that I've always been a fan of the Diamondback's looks. I hate the Cobra's weapon placement and its minimum effort design and I get much more enjoyment from something like the Keelback. DBX was my main ship for a long time many years ago, if I have any spare time in between making money and patrolling the galaxy to keep baby seals safe, I'll give the DBS a spin. o7 Commanders

In addition to everything mentioned in this video, I can honestly say the Type 8 is giving my Krait Phantom a run for its money when it comes to picking a daily driver. I can pretty much do every single gameplay type (except AX) with my current T-8 build while being able to carry more cargo than ever in a medium frame that doesn't look as totally boring as the Python. And it's actually fun to fly with some G5 Dirty drags while looking for Core asteroids. It's also very sturdy when thoroughly engineered. I haven't gotten around to trying it again since the latest update to check if they really fixed the SRV issue. The Phantom is still the prettier of the two though, especially with the T-8s grossly modelled heat vents on those forks right in front of your eyes.

Speaking as a long time treader and hauler the game has been screaming out for the type 8 for many years, the python was the go to medium hauler but multi role ships never quite make the grade like specilised ships.

@sterlingroberts6240Ай бұрын
Type 6 and 7 should have always been designed for a pad size smaller than what they got. That would have fixed basically everything. It’s criminal they have the pad sizes they do. That said, I’d probably reduce the Type 8’s capacity in exchange for more speed and better laden jump range. That’d make it more interesting as a trader, while allowing the Type 7 to more realistically leverage its ideal cargo hauling shape.
@stankobarabata240629 күн бұрын
@@sterlingroberts6240 Type 7 is basically obsolete now. The type 8 is what the 7 SHOULD have been, and now it no longer has a place which is sad. The type 6 should've been a small size ship, with the Keelback being the natural progression upwards, or hell even the type 7 if it was a medium as a pure trader ship rather than a miner/hauler combo if you wanna stay focused on pure hauling capacity. Whatever niche the Type 7 was supposed to fill, it is no longer fill-able unless they want to make the type 8 obsolete, or maybe relegated to a mining role as the Type 7 has... less than stellar weapon slots. I'm not sure if FDEV have ever done something like this, but something desperately needs to happen for a few ships. The Dropship, the Hauler, and the Type 7.
