This game feels like what outer worlds should have been. I am so engrossed it’s not even healthy at this point. I spent something like 4 hours today configuring a ship that I couldn’t power, couldn’t afford, and couldn’t fly… just because it was so much fun to do.

Tbf outerworld's more focused worlds allows for a more reactionary world. The way people describe baldurs gate for rewarding "I wonder if I can do this/ will doing this be acknowledged? " gameplay is really prevalent in surprising ways. I think both are great though! Obsidian and Bethesda just deliver a different kind of rpg scale and experience.

I love this game. Building my first class A ship from the ground up took me about an hour trying to figure out how to do it properly and not have a long list of red flags. But when it was finally done I had so much fun and seeing it for the first time on the platform was super neato. I would love to see some DLC with new parts.

[@TheTacticalFarmer]

[@jparbiter1972]

It can’t be an accident that the 8 crew max matches the 8 principle characters in most Star Trek shows

[@rowanreniewick1012]

In an early development video last year, I saw the highest "cap" at ten crew members. That said, we actually do not know how many actual crew members we can have for each ship.

[@thefalloutphoenix]

​@@rowanreniewick1012actually there is a skill related to crew members and the max level of it allows you to have 8 crew members but idk if that counts your companions aswell

[@rowanreniewick1012]

Oh, I know that, but that is fair; no one has really confirmed if companions can act towards crew count. People could even make mods which enable larger crews for the satisfaction of others and themselves.

[@capo200christian]

I have decided to exercise patience for a period of two years due to a few factors- my device's inability to run the game, the anticipation of the downloadable content, and my desire to incorporate mods.

[@carlosguillen3001]

I have 9 crew members

[@gd_xl]

important note on crew limits: your current companion counts as a free crew assignment to your ship, so without the ship command perk you can have 3 crew + your companion assigned as a free fourth.

[@fidgetelftree9432]

Oh sweet! I _think _Vasco doesn’t count either? Since he has his own little storage bay?

If you're within 250m from your ship you can remotely deposit/retrieve loot via the ship menu and pressing the cargo hold button. Sometimes you get lucky with the ship placement that you can still remotely deposit loot while in a nearby dungeon.

[@xBaconator9000x]

It is far easier to get Shielded cargo from Red Mile! *possible minor spoilers* Joining the Crimson Fleet is fine. But you will need to kill many of them during the main story and it is absolutely not worth the Bounty. So if you want to join them, join them later through the main story. In this case, go to Red Mile for shielded cargo if you're early in the main quest. You can also sell stolen goods and contraban there to the bartender, so everyone wins. Just don't start a fight because it's a level 30 area.

[@vasownedv1548]

what ? if you join the crimson fleet they will be friendly during the story missions you can litterly just walk past them

[@PatricioINTP]

As one who captured several ships, there is one thing I would like to do but don’t know if I can or how. I want to take a ship part and transfer it to my current ship. That is, tear down the captured ship and use its parts to improve my own. If you know how, or if it isn’t possible, tell me. But it should be possible, and if not, it needs to be implemented.

[@greystrangr]

You can get jammers and shielded cargo from Red Mile as well, just so you know. It is totally worth it

[@andrewfewtrell3983]

One thing you missed as long as their isn't a loading screen separating you and your ship, you can freely teleport goods to and from your ship. So if you can always store your cutter on your ship and pull it out by game physics, and then freely store the goods mined back onto the ship to avoid you becoming bogged down. I understand this is a ship guide but could of slapped a side note in for newer players. Me and Sarah we're doing a few long hauls back to the ship without me knowing this. Great video 👍

[@DerDrecksack87]

​@@junatah5903 as you unlock the perks for better modules, they become available at every dock. You can build a station to do it at your playerbase later on, but i think there are a few modules missing so better go to a dockyard.

[@jurgenbuntinx1]

​@@junatah5903you have to scout the galaxy, every technician sells different parts

[@Destroyer_V0]

TLDR. The parts availible at the main hub cities are not complete lists. If you are looking to build just from a specific manufacturer, head to their shipyard, they will have access to parts that cannot be found elsewhere. Sadly nova galactic is no longer in operation, but you can get most of their stuff in new Atlantis from what I can tell.

[@cylondorado4582]

I really appreciate this video since I haven't gotten the game yet but I've been jotting an outline down. And I want to be a tough melee character, which by itself is a lot of perks. And I'd also like some social and exploring stuff. But I can't help but want a nice ship, and there's a LOT of perks that have to do with that. I was blown away by the fact that there are 6 weapon types to choose from. Now I just have to comb through the physical perks. All of them seem to fit my character idea (except maybe stealth), but I probably don't need all of them.

[@randallkrekelberg4346]

I'm over 30 hrs in and the game is incredible dude! That said, I wouldn't get too hung up on what skills to get as eventually you can unlock every single skill that you want, being that there is no level cap. I love that this is possible because we are all able to truly create the character we want without having to sacrifice on anything. Hope you have an absolute blast when you get your hands on it!

[@cylondorado4582]

@@randallkrekelberg4346 You're right, I do like that about it. Although I do figure I want to prioritize certain things first, especially since you have to do the challenges. I'd kind of like to be good with pistols, but I don't think I'm putting anything into any guns until well after 100.

[@leonardovelasco5625]

Hey Fudgemuppet! Thank you so much for this guide! Can't wait for the ship sections of each build!! I'm planning to make an "Optimus Prime" inspired character, so I'm looking for ideas on what his ship would be like. I'm thinking a battleship type where he can have a crew of "Autobots"

[@dstinnettmusic]

My method has been to “Ship of Theseus” the Mantis ship. I’ve managed to rearrange the engines and landing gear to allow me to have a ship that is three bays wide and two 2x1 bays long with the cockpit in the front On the back left I have living quarters, with the all in one on the bottom, crew quarters in the middle and captain’s quarters on top. In the back right I have an armory, the workshop and a science lab. The middle section is a single level with engineering and then in front you have the control deck and then the cockpit. Add in some cosmetics to make everything less boxy and you get what I think looks like a pretty badass ship. Perfect for my space pirate/smuggler. (Example: on the front of the top hab spaces on the left and right, I added one of the “awning” type of module that hangs over the empty space and under those I have two cargo bins. Between those and the way I have the engines splayed out, it keeps the cargo from looking just tacked onto the side of the ship) I tried no ladders and I was able to do it and my ship looked cool enough, but I found it limiting for having all the crafting stations and living space I wanted for my crew. The didn’t want people sleeping in my bed I’m over 70 hours in and haven’t really touched the main quest. This is a truly great game.

Random thing: Sarah Morgan's Leadership skill means she doesn't count against Crew count, as long as you have a station for her. For Example: I need Sam, Barrett and Vasco for combat on my vessel. But Sarah provides a nice benefit of extra jump distance. Normally to have a 4th crew member you would have to have the Social Skill, Ship Command. But so long as you have 4 crew stations, you can assign Sarah, whether you have Ship Command or not.
