The 600i is almost 3x larger than the Phoenix, so, yeah...The 890 absolutely DWARFS the Phoenix. Even just in length, it's 61m vs like 200m. You could fly your Phoenix out to the 890 Jump mission to see how it scales. Should be good video content too. :T

[@LucidStrike]

It's funny hearing it referred to as "the city" when the entire planet is basically one massive city, but you're not wrong. LMAO. As long as Cruise Control isn't active -- and Coupled Mode is -- your ship should actually stop when it exits QT, so you don't NEED to be in the pilot seat at the time.

[@Qwarzz]

A bit like Tokyo. I have no idea where the city of Tokyo ends and the next one begins.

[@BreandanOCiarrai]

one caveat to that- ALWAYS move off the arrival point by a few kilometers, because ships QTing in from the same region will pop out right on top of you if you don't. LOT of collisions that way :)

[@uberfu]

@@BreandanOCiarrai Meh ... There are more caveats there - If you linger too long after exiting QT on main travel lanes you might also be ambushed and shot at destroyed by other players.

[@uberfu]

@Lucid Strike - Decoupled mode On/Off does not matter in space after exiting QT. Unless thrust is active (coupled mode plus auto - where Auto cannot be engaged while decoupled) the ship will go nowhere beyond the QT exit spot - while in space. IF you are decoupled as you exit QT while going down to a planet city location - Yes gravity will take over and pull your ship towards the ground ending in a "boom".

[@uberfu]

Rule of Thumb: No Gravity = No VTOL needed. Also - Why Olli kept putting it in VTOL mode in space makes no sense. (1) VTOL barely works (2) VTOl on most ships is pointless until you get to ships like the MOLE /RAFT /Reclaimer etc ... where they are weighted heavier than the base thrusters can handle - the Constellation is not one that needs too much VTOL - and definitely doesn't do anything in space.

[@davidhonnay1540]

Hi and welcome to the Verse, just a few things : - While there is no real consequences when you're in a hangar, try to take the habit to ALWAYS close your ships before leaving it, you don't want to see your fully quantainium loaded future Starlifter fly away without you because you let somebody take the control of it by letting the ship open. - Speaking of, yes it's nice to have a bigger cargo, but more risks of pirating come with it. Try to avoid the more obvious delivery roads. A good way to do it is to QT to a secondary road, interrupt your QT in the middle of nowhere and then QT to your final destination, doing this you will avoid being on obvious trading routes and QT interdictors ships as Mantis. Maybe also considering doing these high risks/reward routes offline, because stream sniping is a thing unfortunately in SC. Also notice that big cargos ships gets more attention, meaning you're not a noob anymore so pirate orgs who let noobs go their way should willingly attack you more. - And if you get caughed, well best thing to do is negotiation, it is highly appreciate by pirate orgs with ethics (Mongrel Squad for example). - About the 890, just know due to alpha state wipes are still possible (none have been announced for 3.17 though). Cordially

[@laz001]

Something about the ships in this game - more expensive ones aren’t just bigger better versions of less expensive ones. They all have their own feel and quirks - it makes it fun to experience the ships rather then just ‘GRINDING’ for the most expensive one

[@NagginNuggs]

that's a fair point, and more over the biggest ships often have serious draw backs for a solo player. The Hammerhead is a prime example of a powerhouse that really needs a crew to be any value at all. To me this effectively limits any pay-to-win arguments as people who have pledged for the Hammerhead, Polaris, or even Idris are going to be wrangling up a crew to have any use from their major investment anyway. Meanwhile those who have played the game to grind for an Eclipse or Vanguard Sentinel or other single seat fighter can lay waste to those "pay-to-win" big ships just as easily as those who bought a dedicated fighter for their package.

@@NagginNuggs exactly, and one of the big drawbacks of multicrew ships, is their operating costs. NPC crews will not be cheap. A lot of people who own Idris's already, will have them in drydock for a long time haha

Original backer from 2012 here and I think this man nailed it better than most when he said "it feels like a place". You can wrap it up in whatever words you like but that's what it really boils down to for me, the places feels like places, the things feel like things and while it still has a little ways to go, there are some NPCs who feel like people. And a couple of pointers from a guys who's been playing fairly regularly for nearly a decade: -When you drop out of quantum above a planet don't worry, you're not going to fall, it treats you as "in space" and even if your engines are off you'll drift to a stop when you leave your seat. -If budget allows, get a HOTAS. Flying with mouseykeyboard is easier to begin with but once you get a little practice you'll find it has a fairly harsh skill ceiling, a HOTAS or even a plain old joystick will allow you to pull manoeuvres that are simply impossible with a mouse. And those landings will be a lot easier. -the 'unlock' command in the cockpit has nothing to do with the snub fighter, it just allows strangers to push all the buttons on your ship. -On the funding thing mentioned here, it's not actually in big numbers for a "triple A" game it is however the most successful crowdfunding campaign in history. -And for new people, keep in mind it's been in a janky as hell alpha state for a loooong time and will be for some time to come so make sure you're ok with that before buying (minimum is US$45 last time I looked). Having said that for all it's faults it IS a lot of fun for all the reasons mentioned here and there IS an actual game to play. -For the negative nellies, if you want to see an actual scam along these lines go have a look at Star Atlas.

You definitely won’t die if you’re out a seat when you’re done with quantum. Also, whatever quantum drive you have on your ship, you should definitely replace it with an xl-1 drive that you can get from port tressler, or cousin crows in orison. That cru l1 to arccorp flight should be about 4.5 minutes.

[@sphinxoforion7422]

I'd argue the Hermera is better than the XL-1 in some regard; The XL1 has a range of 125.1Mkm at a speed of 260,701km/s whilst the Hermera has a range of 357.44Mkm, at a speed of 126,626. You'll barely need to stop for fuel, and you keep a respectable speed, which is really good if you're chaining missions, or doing something like trading where your main focus is efficiency, so you wouldn't want to wait for your ship to refuel. Now the XL1 is good if you are doing activities within a sector/system i.e Sticking around a planet & its moons. But for long range travel, its not as feasible as you'll be spending profits refueling and time waiting on the tank to fill. But honestly anything is better than the stock Bolon.

@@sphinxoforion7422 arccorp to microtech is ~60m km, as long as we’re stuck in Stanton I’ll take twice the speed and still have enough range to make the longest jump in the system twice. Once we get to pyro I’m sure range on larger ships will become a consideration, for now I don’t think it is.

Great Video! Welcome to the Verse. The Connie Class of ships are the bomb. The Constellation Andromeda is one of the best multi-role ships in the game. It does multi-crew, it bashes bounties, does decent for a mid-range cargo hauler, can carry a wide variety of vehicles. The biggest learning curve to it is just learning how to maneuver a big ship. I will say though, the VTOL functionality is not yet implemented on the Connies yet, but the doors are there for it when it is. Some ships like the Cutlass, Mole, or Prospector for example, actually fly different when in VTOL mode, the Connie flys the same doors open or closed. It does look cool though. I have the C2 Hercules and I love it. I do however use smaller cargo ships to move Ore though. One lesson you learn in SC eventually is to "not put all your eggs in one basket" so to speak. There are still bugs that can cause you to lose ship and cargo. You don't want to lose too much in case one of those happen. o7

I totally get what you mean about the ads and how the 'Verse looks 'lived-in' and populated by companies, brands, ads, food, etc. It's all immersion, and it's just a fun place to 'be', similar to how Stanley Kubrick's slow pacing in 2001: A Space Odyssey lets us 'live' in the moment instead of rushing us through scenes. To me, SC feels like I'm the start in a Kubrick film (slow pacing), but with a modern hard sci-fi aesthetic similar to Blade Runner, Fifth Element, or Oblivion. When other games ignore details such as ship interiors or planet/atmo transitions, we lose a lot. The game is so good with these fundamentals that simply flying from place to place is extremely edifying, long before we worry about complete game loops, or all features and content.

[@soliitudegaming7275]

Its worth noting: It was not announced in 2014/15, it was announced in 2012 with a kickstarter campaign. It also is not the largest budget game, this is a common myth. GTA V has cost way more to develop and maintain than Star Citizen could even dream of (while initial budget was 250 mil, they have spent hundreds of millions since launch to maintain it). In fact, Star Citizen's budget year-to-year is lower than many AAA studios working on stuff like Assassins Creed or Call of Duty. (COD spends somewhere in the ballpark of 200-250 mil per year, SC spends about 80 mil). On the bright side tho, I'm really glad you are having such a good time and have found some peace in this game. It really is something special and while we still have many many years to go (probably like 8 tbh), its already a wildly fun game and I'm super excited for the next 18 months of updates.

So just a few things to point out, that you may know already.. 1. It was the coupled flight mode that was stabilizing your ship like it was, VTOL really doesn't do much at the moment for most ships in terms of stability. (There is a weird thing with the landing gear down that can be useful but that's another deal) 2. If your ship gets stored for timing you don't get fined for that, its no issue.

HEY OLLIE GLAD TO SEE YOU BACK and with this banger of a game , it honestly needs more recognition so I'm extremely happy to see you play it I hope the rest of your fanbase enjoys the game as much as you do , I hope to see you upload alot more of this . Welcome back to the Verse Ollie !!!

[@phoenixsui]

The Constellation was my first ship back in 2013, loved it from day one ;D. Still love it. Even while everyone was complayining about its hields back before the rework of shields. 10:55 you will only fall down on planet surfaces if you are in the gravity of the planet. As you arrive from quantum you should be far enough to not fall. With heavy ships like the Reclaimer you definitly feel the gravity.

[@KakavashaForever]

So crazy to me to see people talking about their FIRST SHIPS and they're talking about ships that cost hundreds of actual dollars to get.

[@legendxy3680]

You cant imagine how happy I am seeing you playing this masterpiece and its definatly great to see another style of videos cause most creators like bored gamer(also great conetnt) have a different style, so yeah its just great to watch :)

[@drummer2443]

"Masterpiece" 😂😂😂😂😂

@@drummer2443 Yup, however much you want to hate it and make fun of it, it is. But keep on trolling buddy, if that is How you like to spend your time. And yes, I like to spend my time playing Star Citizen with my friends rather than trolling on youtube becuase I hate something :)

[@drummer2443]

@@CeSuDuCovers I play it too buddy. Not saying it isn't pretty good, but calling it a masterpiece is laughable

[@CeSuDuCovers]

@@drummer2443 how is that laughable? They literally created something no other developer has done before. That stupid reacion is laughable. And yes i am angry about that stupidity because people spread stupid shit Like that. There are so many things that can be critizised about the development but people tend to Pick out the most stupid things and reacion because of their utter Lack of understanding. It is so Frustrating because it feels Like it is absolutely impossible to discuss the actual Problems.

[@CLEARRTC]

3.17 has had an amazing Detail pass for 1440P. Controls for the Connie are updated and look excellent. (I have an Andromeda). Do yourself a favor though go to Area 18 and buy the Crossfield jump drive for the connie, its sooo much faster, the 40M KM jump would have taken between 3-4 min. Also you can absolutely get on the cargo ramp or front entry and lower it during QT, it looks awesome I have lots of screen shots doing that

[@explorer47422]

You can check your distance from your destination by just looking at your mobi, no need to get back into the seat :). Also you hear a distinctive 'deceleration' sound when you're nearing the destination as the ship starts to slow, and means you got about a minute before you pop out of QT

[@SketchN3]

getting the game soon, just need to upgrade the storage on my PC, thanks for fully inspiring me to finally back it, and the comments tell me the negatives, but in my opinion, the positives outweigh the negatives, because it's a game, and there are going to be bugs, especially when it's in development. The cheap base price of the game and the look and way it is played together make what is next to a dream game of mine. no matter what the naysayers will say, it's someone's own opinion on how a game should be, and this in my opinion, is what games have always been leading up too.

[@rinkerchris2474]

make sure your pc can handle it it a hard game for low end pc's

[@Baleur]

One of the best space games ive ever played, since 2015. It was EXTREMELY rough in those early days, but the last 2 years have seen massive changes to the core game itself, with mostly if not majority of positive results from those changes. It takes a long time to get where the game wants to go, but when it gets even halfway there, other dev studios still have 10 years of catching up to do. We're in it for the long haul, just like EVE Online players. But i'll be honest about one thing the trolls say, they're right, for the reasons they dont comprehend. Star Citizen will never be "finished", because it'll continually be updated. Just as EVE Online still today isnt "finished", because it also continues to evolve. So when someone asks "when is Star Citizen released?", simply answer, it is released, you can play it right now. It wont be "release-released" in the future, because its an evolving game, just like any MMO. EVE Online wasnt finished on release day. Nor was World of Warcraft. Nor was Elite Dangerous. And thats a good thing. "Holy cow, this guy said its a GOOD thing that SC will never be finished??! LOL OMG". Yeah, because "finished" means its thrown to the side and forgotten, updates stop. If you love a game, you dont want it to be "finished", people dont want EVE Online to be "finished", they want to continue playing through as the game changes, grows and evolves. There's this weird myth that "finished" means that a game is better than something that isnt finished. I dont think Aliens Colonial Marines, despite being a "finished" game, is better than Escape From Tarkov, which is NOT a "finished" game, and for the record, also has no release date. Yet there's no drama about Tarkov. Why? Because its a good game. That's fun NOW, regardless of what label you attach. Luckily Star Citizen has also become fun now, and hopefully will continue to evolve in the right directions. "Finished" means nothing. It's today and the future that matters.

[@chobai9996]

Well I mean, it can be finished, in terms of actually having the MMO experience the game is meant to be. Until then, it's not what it's supposed to be. I get what you mean, but there is no progression to the game and no permeance. The persistence and reputation system will help us get to that point

[@LukeRDavis]

Well, I think finishing the core of the game that was promised is the important thing. Then additional updates and amazement can occur.

[@jkthrpr]

This may have been said already, but think of what’s been, and being done is laying the foundation for all to come. So many of the tools and tech has been created in response to the blockers keeping the game from being what it’s to be. Things like subsumption tech. Really CIG gas made some game tech they could in turn lease to other game devs. Crusader is the first fully rendered gas giant in any game ever. New tech had to be created to do that. Oh lord Robert’s hallowed be thy name. 😊 server meshing is what we are reeeeealy waiting for. Keep up the great vids.

[@MartinB034]

Great vid, been playing for around 5 years now, game has come a looooong ways XD ! The Starlifter you'll enjoy I'm sure, Crusader ships are good ships; I'm a Mercury Starrunner owner myself. Looking forward for your mining vids ;)

[@SilverrulezGaming]

Let me repost this comment I posted above one a bit further up. Whats your true opinion on it, bias and convincing aside. A genuine answer that doesnt try to persuade us lol. Would be nice to know. Having the game is a conflict of interest, I'm aware, but hoping you have a good response lol. Seems like a great game in theory, just have heard a lot of frustrations.

[@juhannusruusu]

now this is what i call an open world game... not just a game with a big map and many side quests... imagine what gaming will look like in +50 years with the newest tech

[@Vinterloft]

You can get rid of those stutters in quantum drive by having the game and OS pagefile installed on different PCIe 4.0 SSDs btw. A good idea since it's only going to get worse. If you don't have PCIe 4.0 nvme slots, the only other way to eliminate them is 128GB of RAM. Remember that you're crossing a dozen Skyrim maps every second when quantum travelling.

[@jamaicanenigma]

Didn't realize the scale of the game...love the little details

[@obiwonton369]

Load the Ursa rover in connie and land near bunker [out of turret range] and drive rover to bunker. The you can fill Ursa with dead guys, drive back to connie and loot all their weapons, armor and dump the bodies Now in 3.17 you can sell loot at the gun shops & armory.

[@Kilogya]

This game is the type of game that has the perfect development and discipline cycle in which most games lack. It may never be finished, but it won't stop being worked on. Never abandoned, but never finished. That's programmer art.

[@soldatnrvier5816]

While it is true that most critics greatly overreact, „perfect development“ is not true either to be fair. At least not „perfect development communication“

[@Kilogya]

@@soldatnrvier5816 My point is, the game may last longer than others in the grand scale. I know it's not perfect internally, as a game developer I already know this. No game has what I say is perfect development, but this one seems to do better in the regard of slow methodical development rather than fast and rushed development. I just hope it keeps up in this state. I don't own the game yet so I can't say for sure, but I've watched a ton of great content on it and feel comfortable giving it my praise.

[@MrSoundwave]

Remember that ships bought with ingame money could be lost if the team decides to do a wipe after a large patch. You can only keep them forever if bought with real money so keep that in mind and then there is insurance to consider aswell.
