I own a ton of capital ships like Polaris, Idris, Javelin and other large ships, but to this day, my favorite is the Carrack.. but it needs a bit more love from CIG.... and better shields, weapons (should be size 5).

Its getting a little love in 4.0, with blast shield, cargo doors opening, but I agree, its one of my favorite big ships. The interior is soo clean.

Point defense too , at least 2 on the lower hull and upper hull side. It isnt even gold standard yet right? The reclaimer needs them too, both PDCs and a real gold standard pass.. tbh a lot of ships need some love.

@@evemaniac Right not gold standard, least not that they have mentioned. Reclaimer needs a lot of love, it doesnt even have a weapons rack which I desperately want.

YES! This the ship that inspired me to jump into this game♥️. I have since become a WG but I still call this “home” until they rework the 600i and my Ironclad gets here🤣

I'm literally waiting for reworked 600i and ironclad....and they best hurry! Lol

I've been flying it in 4.0 EPTU It has a blast shield that you can bring out via a lever on the bottom right of the right MFD, The medical bed is fixed & fully functional, Storage lockers in both the Crew & Cpt Quarters are now fully functional with paper doll inventories, and last but not least the lower half of the Cargo Pods now open allowing hover bikes (the pulse at least has been updated to reach the height of the pods it's a bit finicky but doable), Cargo containers & ATLS to be tractored on to the pods, as of current though the pods do not lower that will likely come later! This is not a gold pass, this is a make the carrack usable pass and by god it finally is it's not worthless any more also the cargo pods have a snapping grid for containers that go right up against the wall it's glorious! i've yet to fly through the wormhole yet but i'm prob gonna do that soon, EPTU is in open wave so if ya all wanna try I reccomend coming on I dunno how long EPTU will last before the 4.0 goes live right now EPTU is far more stable and smooth with the meshing than PU! what your used to when it says 30fps client side it's usually choppy as hell but even at 487 players in the verse shard altogether and 43 in the crusader server after the recent cleanup patch the game was running like butter even at the skyview platform where the fps dropped to 20fps it didn't feel like 20fps near the stratus it was smooth no microstutters and those lack of microstutters are prevalent anywhere when I got to space yesterday it felt like I was in an optimised AAA game, in the past even with 70fps client side I always had a slight flickeryness to fps caused by server fps being low.... that is gone even when the server fps isn't 30 it still feels smoother than anything i've ever experienced in live me and my friend haven't played together since 3.2 on SC but we've both been playing straight for 2 days, sure we had hangar instance bugs that were annoying and he struggled to install the game but we persevered and both got in and when we did we had a blast in his polaris, now I can't gaurantee it will run this smooth on PU live launch me and my friend even his friends have told the devs it aint ready for launch yet due to the other bugs! bugs aside though the performance at least.... it is butter and it is there, so I say let em cook till january and then put it out then I will be confident with more optimizations more bug squashing this patch will run like a dream, it's close but it's not quite ready yet but I definately excited and you should be too! i'll keep wading through the bugs with the other concierges so you don't have to! but if your patient/masochist enough to deal with the bugs and the frustration when some things don't work, EPTU is an experience i'd reccomend it to ya because all the bugs you'd expect to bother us in live are minimal now due to the server meshing and it feels freeing it's coming together nicely it just needs to be in the oven longer for the other stuff! as for the carrack my experience has been grand OH I ALMOST FORGOT!, they moved the carrack nameplate the code on the side at the front is the new nameplate I figured it out cause the other name in EPTU is gone and that code matched the nameplate hologram code every time you bring out a new ship it seems to change so my assumption is once 4.0 hits live instead of the code my ship will have it's name back on the hologram and the nameplate in much more readable size the nameplate on the carrack is now proportional to the size difference between the USS Enterprise and it's name plate meaning you can read in 3rd person no problem and it's larger than the carracks mess hall window our complaints have been heard fellow carrack users! i'm assuming for future usage of the cargo pods that since it's in the same state as the caterpillars cargo now the ability to bring them down on both ships will probably come at the same time at some point in the future there will prob be a cargo pod pass for the caterpillar and the carrack for lowering them!

Fantastic write up! I didnt know that about the name plate as Ive only named one of my ships. I'm a little unable to pick on the other ships lol Ive loved the EPTU and have been a part of it since wave 1, and its gotten better and better, but you said it well enough :) thanks!

@angrytomasz 24 күн бұрын

It's actually an exploration ship, one of the oldest in the game. And it's supposed to be getting a quality pass and some improvements for 4.0.

It has received some love and I'm very much looking forward to it :)

I just got the Carrack expedition by way of the Galaxy ($380). I have a few freinds that have them and we always have a great time in it. It really is an amazing ship and when we get a couple more systems, it will truly shine. As Sam mentioned, it needs to be finished. Better shielding and some PDS turrets would be great. Looking forward to spending some time 'off grid' in it during this patch.

@theLawb 24 күн бұрын

PDS shielding would be fantastic, it struggles holding against attackers. Love the off grid feel though, especially once drones and exploration is full more fleshed out.

@Dr.Kryptanical 23 күн бұрын

@@theLawb I've been saying the same PDS needs to happen as it stands right now in the EPTU wave 4 open for 4.0 the PDS doesn't exist on a carrack and sadly that means a well aimed polaris torpedo can disable a carrack at least and destroy it at most, until engineering comes in theres alot of single player polaris out there that run on less than skeleton crews roaming everywhere it's hard to not see a polaris at every docking area, my hope is when engineering comes in, in a 4.x patch it will make alot of these solo flyers either crew up or melt the polaris cause some fly it on the assumption they would always be able to do so not realising the current state of the game isn't how it's gonna be at launch with a higher focus on crew play it wont be impossible but it would be very difficult for a single player to maintain a capital ship alone while mid combat because once I can have an engineer or 2 on my carrack I will be recruiting asap an exploration ship needs a good engineering crew I may dabble in it myself too! if a player was to try to attack us when we can repair on the fly and they can't it would be a mistake especially since all the turrets will be personed too so it makes less sense for those players who didn't sign up for that to melt the polaris or go get a crew, but I believe the number of people willing to do that is gonna be lower so we wont see at least as many polaris as we are seeing now in EPTU where they seem like they're everywhere... besides feels like a fad it's the new hotness once more capital ships for the polaris to compete with come into the game they'll be less bothered about our little carracks! but right now at least at least 1-2 PDS would be nice as a deterrent after all those torpedoes are expensive!

@theLawb 23 күн бұрын

@@Dr.Kryptanical yeah Ive read that they are expensive, but havent seen the price myself in game. I owned the Polaris for a short moment, but since I'm generally solo, it didnt make sense to keep it. I think every ship needs at least that PDS system in so that they can have a chance at something, because we feel rather "sitting duck" at the moment, least the bigger ships for starter.
