[@KhanIlkara]

It's funny that you mention this. I had a Starborn ship raid my base on Earth or at least attempt to. The strange part is that they landed close enough that when I did fast travel after taking care of them I had come back to Earth to put something away. Somehow, I had the urge to check the ship as it was still there, resulting in me scoring a free Starborn ship.

what annoys me with Bethesda, this game in particular, they patch more often the content or "glitches/exploits" that typically are considered more fun to players and ignore many of the issues that actually ruin the gameplay. its a single player non online game, let the players play how they want and stop ruining that with updates that dont necessarily improve the game just add dumb features that nobody gives af about like "new photo mode features" gtfo Bethesda.

If you sit down and take the ship before going to the storage, then it won't be flagged "steal". Also, This is probably the same ship that you get when you randomly come across a smuggler in space. With that scenario, taking the package later results in a battle for those who were Supposed to get the package.

Since the update I have only had one ship land on a planet while I am there and that has been on at least 20 planets and moons. This feature appears to have been killed by the update. Quite a blow as the thrill of stealing a ship from pirates etc was keeping me involved in the game. Not so sure why this was done. I have also taken a ship in the way mentioned here (a couple actually) but not sure if it will happen now.

This is probably due to having fixed the empty /ghost ship bug. Cause by the starborn ships being bugged and landing everywhere BGS shadow fixed this bug in its update it was not in the patch notes as a result it killed the random ship encounters landing on planets.

The first dialogue option also works. Note that the intended recipient of the package will probably come for it later - with a whole fleet of friends (at least that is what happened to me). Offering to return the goods probably doesn't work (I didn't even bother to try) - you will have to fight and kill him. I got an Autobahn, not a Vista (I was on a different planet) but the good news is that this has not changed in the May 2024 update.

[@SpartasEdge]

1:54 It's not weird. You saud yourself that the captain of the ship was expecting somone to turn up for a job; it stands to reason that he would have informed the crew why they are there; and so they too would also be expecting someone to turn up; and they also probably just assumed you was that person.

I honestly wish you could clean a ship of all the random junk in this game, including the items that aren't collectable like buckets and ladders. or that things would remain as you place them.

[@johnspartan98]

I've gotten many of the UC and Freestar Vista 3's. I use the first option in the conversation with the captain then the next option I pick the "you got the wrong guy"...then the captain says: "Is that right....then we have a problem then don't we...because now you know too much" Then he goes into attack mode and so does the crew. You end up getting rid of the entire crew in self defence. Then I use the navigator consul on the ship and jump to the nearest system. I find myself having jumped in my own ship, so I immediately return to my ships landing site, get out, and fast travel back to the Vista III. Now the ship is cleaned up and the captains chair is working. I jump in, save is as my home ship, register it, and it's mine.

[@danielleinad4603]

after you leave the becon, just take off the planet, fly to another planet in the SAME SYSTEM and then immediately return to your becon, thats all you need to do :-) enter ship and fly away...and yes it still works as i got my Vista III yesterday 29.June 2024

Ship was locked. Unlocked it, went to cockpit, stood in the chair, flew away. Was a Class B UC Roanoake. Sarah didn't even blink. Unlike the original Roanoke colony, this time the colony left without the colonists...

[@cluce60]

This still works! I had a FreeStar Vista 111 land with crew with a female captain, so I set a Beacon and headed over to Earth and exited the ship. I then headed back and landed at the beacon and walked onto ship again. No crew as you said. Thanks for your time making this video!

'and hes given me 2500 credits, and thats going straight into the pockets' pockets have 21 billion dollars in them 😅😅😅😅

I did this, but I didn’t put down a beacon. I just kept a mental picture of the ships landing zone by clicking “show me” to see location on the surface map. I quick jumped to a close planet then jumped back and there it was…minus the crew and captain. No beacon necessary.

[@colewilliams6623]

I think this has been known for quite some time now. It can also happen anywhere in the universe. Regardless of the dialog choice you make, you can still get the ship. The two lies end the exact same. The mistaken option the crew will turn hostile. The 4th one I have never done so am unsure if they turn hostile or not. Regardless leaving and returning will still bag you the ship. I will have to try the 4th option as I am now curious.

[@ROSENKRIEGER]

I got this ship too. But I simply killed the entire crew when I entered it (after I talked to the captain, and he gave me "the stuff"). I then was able to sit in the pilot seat and take off. I registered the ship and now how the Freestar Vista III. I did NOT get a bounty (even though I am a Freestar Ranger myself and killing the entire crew).

[@Gguyrules]

I mean, you technically glitched it into being stealable, so it being "broken" was kind of the intention. That said, fun video regardless. I'm just imagining the missing crew being out in some abandoned station, taking a piss, and then they come back to the landing spot and it's just GONE. Captain: Ehmm, Charlie, this is where we landed it, right? Charlie: Yes...sir? Captain: Yeah, then where the hell is it, cause I ain't seeing it for sure! Charlie: I...I don't. Captain: You're fired, Charlie. Go find yourself a spacer crew or something. Plenty of their ilk around, and you'll fit in nicely given your exempt incompetence.
