@@Falenir from what I'm seeing the Zeus is slightly better however has a much higher top speed but to the other folks commenting it's not really a direct competitor to the Zeus. More so to the constellation.

[@uberdman1883]

Ty for the acctual combat test. Great video

[@ottodeluxe]

It's like the complete antithesis to the Zeus MKII. Sooo much open space, left open on purpose not only for RP reason, but I suspect mostly for balance reasons. One elevator would be enough, the other two could instead be the escape pods. That clears one complete room. The Room with the airlock also seems like so much wasted space. Even with the luxury quarters and huge common space, you could easily double the cargo capacity. You could also make the back cargo room a full grid, and the middle cargo room could easily have three rows, and stack them 2 high. This ship could easily be around 600 SCU without losing anything but an elevator, but then it would be waaay to good for its price point. And if they made it more expensive instead, they would not sell as many.

[@ptdJ3KyKzLPr]

I was thinking the exact same thing. Whether you're a max/min player or not, there is so much wasted space in this ship. I am considering melting my pledge.

I checked mine out last night. This is my new daily until the TAC is out. It's an amazing ship.

[@Literallyryan190]

Well considering how good the max looks im even more hyped for my TAC

[@anferFFmax]

I ordered a Tac. I didn't think I needed a Max since I have a Taurus, which can take 170+ SCUs of cargo, and if I want more , I have an A2 that can take 200+, and a M2, which take over 500+ SCus. So I didn't see a need for a Max in my fleet. But boy, is it a sweet ship! I actually missed out on the beautiful blue paint for my Tac. I got every other paint except the blue. Not sure what I was thinking. We now have three ship series in the game that I consider essential. The Connies, The Hercs, and the Starlancers. I'm typically on the front of criticizing CIG for its focus on ships rather than game value, but this time around I have to congratulate them. This are quality ships!

[@Shot5hells]

the glass roof cockpit would make sense in-universe as like an optional component. It would be perfect with the pacific paint for like a commercial passenger transport vibe, somewhere the passengers can come take a look outside seeing as none of the rooms have windows.

[@Malember]

A quick note: In the most recent patch, the Starlancer's VTOL thrusters where fixed. Really the only downsides to the MISC ships is their slow speed and mailbox cockpit view. Which admittedly is just personal preference. This is definitely a nice upgrade to my Feelancer Max.

[@RoyHobbs-f4v]

... really like this ship. I usually go for the version within-a-series with all of the "gadgets"... and I would here, as well, if they had a dedicated "Explorer"; but I think the MAX is the best-version of the three Starlancers proposed. It features incredible configurability and versatility. With the addition of modular "game-loop" stations that will invariably be making their-way into the game, shortly... the MAX has all the "makings" of a truly remarkable ship... that already comes equipped with the "charm".

[@timbererickson2554]

Awesome ship feels balanced and feels so good love the interior easy to unload for cargo such a versatile ship too

[@Nemoticon]

I really like this ship, I melted my 400i for it and very please with the decision. The ship oozes personality and has great flexibility and utility, perfect for a small crew to have fun and get into trouble with. The living hab is very comfortable and immersive for RPers, the catwalk in the cargo lift provides a great place to manage crate stack from as your crew bring them in close to the sides and the rear vehicle bay is huge. The few things I don't like is that the co-pilot's hands actually cover up the MFDs on the dashboard and the radar is very difficult to see from the pilot seat. Yes, the cockpit view could be better, but it doesn't bother me, you get pretty panoramic framing from it when you are flying in atmosphere watching the sun rise and set. Nice tour, ty👍

[@infinitespace239]

@@Nemoticon Yeah this one is a keeper. Glad it served. o7

Interesting how well the Starlancer handles. People were using its size as an excuse for why it has the old loadout of the Redeemer, citing the Redeemer would handle better. Clearly that's not the case now and yet another point in the long list of Redeemer nerfs.

Considering how well they did this ship I can't wait to see what they do with the odyssey.

[@Leptospirosi]

Thanks for showing some fast combat: I was a bit hesitant about this ship, especially the dark colours of the interior, but I like it, better then the metal surfaces in the Hull A and the light is less bluish then on the Hull A. The slit on the front cockpit doesn't bother me, as I'm used to civilian planes and I don't look forward to fight in the Starlancer unless provoked. Overall I'm likeing what I see and I will most probably push the CCU I have over it to get one in game.

[@ikkeheltvanlig]

My critiques of the Starlancer MAX are: * Only two double beds for 1-4 crew industrial ship. It makes no sense to do that over four single beds, preferably four doubles. * There's no reason to have two rear elevators. * It's very lacking in the lighting department (no front flood lights, poor lighting of the middle cargo floors when lowered, no rear flood lights for the lowered ramp) * No airlock for the docking port. * Would have wanted more windows as you pointed out * The gangway across the middle cargo section is suspended by wires that are exactly 2 SCU apart, meaning it's really easy to get a 4-32 SCU container permanently stuck there. All that said, I really really love it. It's my new favorite and also I would argue, one of the closest ships you get to a Firefly class ship if you disregard the hidden stowaway compartments that currently are mostly a gimmick.

[@DavidFerreira1986]

crew 4....bed 2 size 2......for gays make sense. It have airlock. 2 elevators, damm I bought this ship and actually I did not see the second elevator, need to pay more attencion to my ship yup....missing alot of lights...and buttons no windows......no probleme, there is no space for more windows if you note, check the exterior. You can easly put doble SCU on this ship

[@infinitespace239]

Glad it served. Don't need a tractor. I am happy like this.

[@randlebrowne2048]

With the angle of the door and ramp in the back, it looks like a tractor beam might have had clearance issues getting cargo into the back. On the plus side, there is still plenty of room for an ATLS or two alongside the cargo.

And... the Habitation Center has a remarkable resemblance to a uniquely integrated "server-center". There even appears to be a "radar and electronic-sensor mast" on the top of this ship. Is it possible that the co-pilot in this vessel is in the "sensor and radar-command suite"...? Is the MAX also an explorer and data-transport?

I have the max. It just feel that the ship isn’t quite done yet. Especially the interior. The pilots area for flying feels way cramped. The mailbox window slit leave’s visibility very limited. There is a wrap around feature but vertical visibility is limited… very limited. The interior panels lack the finish of other ships. In my opinion and it is only my opinion is that the ship was roughed out to get it in the pipeline. The galley has no opening appliances for storage or even a fridge to open, put the beers in and close it. The engineering space has no dedicated control panel. There is storage in each berthing compartment that can hold an armor suit, clothing and extra items, there are no medical facilities, but a medical it’s would fit in. These are just my observations. I do like the ship and can’t wait to see the tax variant.

Compared to Ironclad, half the price and 15% the cargo. However, you can solo Starlancer with 4x size 4 weapons. With Ironclad they are all remote or manned turrets so need crew for defense. Would be more profitable with Ironclad + 1 or 2 friends; 3-way split will still be more than 1-way in Starlancer. Plus better defense.

... the "forced" group-play for the Iron-Clad... just doesn't feel-like the way-to-go.

Depends what you like. 600 i is still not getting reworked. I think they will just make a new version 2.0. In my opinion this ship is better for everyday living. Plus when you melt 600i you can get something extra for credits. And you can always upgrade back to 600i. o7

This should have been the Starlancer. The "MAX" SHOULD have been a stripped down, cargo-focused variant that so many people have commented about. imo, this ship is indicative of a problem with CIG and their design teams.

Naah i love it. So satisfying ship.

I’m seeing easy targets as far as ship component targeting goes 😮

What, no shitter next to the mess hall?

[@Nozzinator]

Sacrificed half the ships holding capacity for that dashboard 😂

[@infinitespace239]

Crazy lol 🤣 it is 2 m long

[@ChookyChuck]

The lack of glass in cockpit is a mistake

[@vulcan4d]

They made this thing maneuverable? Major nerf incoming. The limited view is a killer. Since so much time is spent flying ships, no thanks.

[@infinitespace239]

I love it. Amazing ship.
