The MISC Starlancer First Look & Deep Dive | Star Citizen

[@maximillianiv9452]

This is a real STARSHIP!!

[@DrFeelGoodHelpDesk]

Upgraded my Railen to this. Won't regret it!

[@ViniciusConsorte]

bet you will.

[@pirateradio8420]

The MAX has 128 SCU of cargo capacity in the middle section of the ship and 96 SCU at the back. It looks like what they will do for the BLD is have the 96 SCU available in the back cargo area, and 32 SCU dedicated to the middle section which will be modified to house that 32 SCU and the drone operator seat etc (96+32=128). So there will likely be some gameplay moving cargo from the back into the middle section as needed for resupplying the drones.

[@mightylink65]

I've been waiting so long for something to finally replace my Taurus, I want a good medium hauler but nothing too big like the C2, the Starlancer Max has all size 2 components so it should be very manageable and soloable.

[@Blackcat70_]

are you concerned about losing the seated tractor beam?

[@CitizenScott]

"Soloable" without NPC crew?

[@johnlittle-g6g]

Sorry to say but I think you'll be disappointed. It'll be twice as large as your Taurus in every dimension with tons of wasted space to cater to role playing and NPC activities. It'll be twice as slow and sluggish in its acceleration, pitch and yaw with a massive landing foot print. For such a massive ship reaching the size of a C2, it only has 240 SCU cargo. Off-center piloting position like the C2 and with a mail-slot view...

[@Vioblight]

Replaced Zeus Cl with this because loading that amazing ship was a headache… This ship will be amazing! Only down side is no lower turret for the max… Like how it looks and what it has. Looking forward to my first MISC ship ever. Rip Connie Taurus until rework.

[@davewills6121]

BLD is a nice possible concept, yet a good way off, cant see the TAC dropping until Invictus 2025, And its good to see CIG really putting the Hull assets to good use. And of course very important, yet always overlooked by the Noobs: ''DISCLAIMER: These are our current vehicle specifications. Some of this may change during the 3D design and game balancing process''. We don't buy ships on stats alone, we buy if for its designed role in game.

Really excited for this ship mac!

[@lunasakara7306]

So when do we inevitably call this ship the FATMAX, because it's a bigger better Freelancer MAX.

[@charlespickering2726]

I would imagine once base building goes live the BLD is probably going to be the small town work horse ship the pioneer is likely going to be a lot more rare and focused more on working on space stations and bigger city setups. I am guessing BLD with a few of those grav sleds construction machines around could slap out a pretty solid town in a reasonable time.

[@lee-rg]

Another ship I wasn't supposed to buy, but I bought it anyway. And I'm happy to hear what I acquired! :)

[@cygnus6623]

Yeah, same here. I bought the Taurus for $150. So, upgrading to the MAX War bond was only $25 more. Great deal I couldn't pass up.

[@erikturner3141]

Max is exactly what i have been dreaming for since the first cargo update! God i can't wait!

[@tripperdan]

I went ahead and CCU'd my Taurus to the SL MAX, I'll probably keep going the CCU the MAX to the BLD when it arrives since it appears that my Galaxy won't be getting any attention real soon, though they did decide to make good what they said from stage last year. Just not sure how "Soon(tm)" that will be

[@FoxReaper]

Always Love your videos man! Thanks for this one, great quality as always!

[@Thorwine]

Get well soon there over the pond!

[@Clearwood_]

Great video with a great review of what we know so far but, I still want to know whats up with dudes hands at 6:38 and 9:29. Bugged? Hand cremes confirmed? O_o

[@snaggletoof1927]

It's a good looking ship. I hope those that pledged it will be happy with their decision.

[@PerplexedVet]

Thanks Mac! Enjoyed the live stream today!

[@RobinHartJones]

I am pretty certain that all three variants will have the 96scu rear bay so that that would mean the the 128scu they quoted for the BLD includes the 32scu of building supplies. You will probably need to keep moving boxes forward from the rear bay as 32scu will not even build two small buildings.

[@Rift_131]

Thanks Mac!

[@festersmith8352]

I was wondering what things we may be able to do at the drones stations, since I sense the drones are automated. Hopefully they add some more interaction with them. Otherwise I hope we can just lean over the seat to push the buttons, instead having to sit down first just to do that. The BLD is interesting addition to base building. I'm still curious about the Anvil Atlas platform though. Either its more medium drones, or less large ones. Hoping it was one of the silhouettes we seen this year. Atlas can be dropped off and left, while the carrier runs for cargo to continue building. There feels like a logistical advantage to the Atlas. We'll haver to wait and see. It is hard to not see how these might out shine the Connies of similar variants. But the Connies just look so good to me. Though that Merlin looks out of place, and seems fitting where it sits when compared to another RW item. Hoping one day I can put the Razer there.

[@everettumphrey]

MISC Starlancer BLD looks great, saving for the Pioneer. Get more rest, Chicken Soup, and a few Hot Totties should fix you right up, get better.

[@Jezato]

I've got my fingers crossed for a DUR version.

[@timsgta]

What room are the side windows behind the flight deck a part of? It looks too far forward for the room with the kitchen, or is it? The windows are on either side too.

[@NattCrowt]

It’s on the flight deck itself, you can compare the floor plan with the position of the pilot guns (on either side).

[@SaschaTKL]

The most important question: Is the Pool Table functional? I dont think so...

[@gergenskits3940]

I really wish I could get one of each. they all seem like really good ships. (especially now that the Corsair is Crap) they may not be "sexy" but well made and practical. I will probably grab a CCU to the Build when it becomes available and work my way into it. The Max would find a really good place in my fleet, as it is a Huge jump from MSR to Carrack in Cargo Capacity. been thinking of putting a Taurus and Railen in there as stepping stones. maybe the MAX is a good compromise, but the Railen is sexy.

[@echo5827]

2 turrets with 2 size 4s is not enough imo. The tac with 2x5s is fine even though they're in horrible positions but for such a big slow ship it's not enough firepower if the pilot just has a few size 4s If the turrets had good views and equivalent of 4x3s good, or just 1 turret with 4x4s would be better. You gotta get 2 more people to sit in small turrets, at least it's easier than getting people in the 2x2s in the corsair or worse, to fire your other pilot guns Besides the BLD because it has good firepower for that kind of role, the other ships don't make sense even though I really like them. Like the MAX has 224 scu, not bad but that's all it does and is still 1/3 of the C2 at kind of a similar size. The zeus with 128 is just an infinitely better choice and it's much less than half the size. Those massive crew quarters and a bunch of nothing going on doesn't make them good specialized ships or all rounders. Gotta see them ingame I guess

[@GlennLMS]

When a ship has more than 1 shield generator does each generator cover the whole ship or do they each cover just part of it?

[@bpgsontz1072]

I wish I could take a rover in my starlancer tac. It would have been the perfect upgrade from my old constellation aquila. The rover will be missed 😢

[@festersmith8352]

I get where you're going when comparing these to Connies. But remember, the Aquila is an explorer, with different features for it. The TAC is a combat role. The TAC should be able to carry an URSA. Though not much room left for cargo, and you lose that snub. The TAC is more comparable to the Andromeda.

[@DecanFrost]

[@blomsky3475]

I really like the design of the Star Lancer and can´t wait to get my hands on it. But why are the introduced as a new series of diffenrent ships? Where is modularity???

[@FishOnPC]

Love your content

[@Tertion]

Omg...could it be ? Could this ship be the one to finnaly replace my Connie ?!

[@festersmith8352]

I have the same thought about them. Keep in mind these are a bit bigger, and likely handle as such. Plus a plethora of missiles on the Connie, as well as that snub.

[@Volf1916]

With the major effort to push multicrew larger ships to be unweildy and too much work for sigle players, this ship is a dead on arrival for me as a solo player. Definitely dont need the extra bother pushing me away from the focus of flying my ship and I get all the use and functionallity from smaller less costly ships for my recreational game play.

[@hanyolo105]

how many stars can a starlancer lance if a starlancer could lance stars?

[@Rift_131]

[@LucaM568]

I'm so angry at CIG, the Freelancer has needed a rework for years, and now we're getting the Starlancer WTF. The Starlancer won't be bought either, because I want to unlock things in 1.0 and not buy everything beforehand.

[@fergusmoloney]

Wonder if they’ll reduce the crew requirement on the freelancer max. Seems crazy that it has the same amount of crew as the Starlancer or am I hearing that wrong?

[@echo5827]

freelancer will get a rework but, I prefer a new ship over scrapping the old and replacing it. Still wish we had the old 300 series, cutlass, etc. in the game they had a cool style. Like they did with the hornet.

[@festersmith8352]

A number of ships needs some rework. But I would rather wait until they get more of ships designs and functionalities done before they do it. If they're reworked now with tech and knowledge from now, its likely that won't change much on the second rework. But if reworked later, the more likely to be even better in design when more is known and available. Plus a rework now, likely means another rework in 4 years. Instead we may see reworks in two years.

[@Zeoran]

How can you have a deep dive & review for a ship that's not even out yet? We don't know what the final layout will be, what the final anything will be. We'll know what the MAX will be like in about 3 weeks, until then, it's guessing. Bit early for a "review" and "deep dive".

[@honorabledodger]

This is not the ship you're looking for.

I'm not a fan of MISC design either. Often looks like a troll design from the female perspective. IE: the silhouette of the Hull C on the MFD. Don't look, cause once you see it, you can't un-see it. And what what those Merlins ay. Something from Adam and Eve😁

[@greatwarsgaming1695]

need different business model the ship sales is old and hinders game dev and devs need more freedom.

Bruh name one that lets them spend 100 mil a year on devs. This is the only way and it will continue to be the way for the next decade. There's a reason why there's only 1 star citizen

[@festersmith8352]

I have yet to hear anyone come up with a better way to fund this project, that doesn't force players to spend more. I challenge you. CIG could turn it over to big corpo for funding. That works well, right?

[@ergotroff]

The pledges through ships is a means to fund the whole game project. I think it's been very successful and I can't see any reason they would change it. Even just buildng these space ships is hugely expensive for CIG.
