that was a remarkable video. I really liked the concept, as well as the footage and content. Yes, I really love the Connies, and had an Aquila for the longest time while waiting for my Corsair. I think I will eventually buy a Phoenix, because it is a MUST to have a Connie in your lineup. and it checkmarks. both Connie AND luxury. I have often said that by the time game releases it is likely to be a matter of "you can buy ANY ship in the game," As opposed to "you can buy ALL the ships in the game." I am planning to start the game in my MSR. While not quite the battleship that the Connie is, it's faster, has more cargo space. is a little more versatile in what vehicle can be carried. I also think that, given the limitations of the speed of light, banking, government, private correspondence, and other interstellar communications will be dependent on data being "pony expressed" between Star systems. so an MSR can load up those computers with "data as cargo" and boost it's cargo trading career with data hauling. we have no Idea how much cash bonus that will be, but I think "18 extra SCU (over the Connie) plus data = $$$"

Super video as usual 👌Even tho i'm not a Drake enjoyer x) As a wide screen user, this is so cool to have this format, i can't get bored of it since you switched :D A little correction tho : it's been 2 patches (3.23.0 and 3.23.1) that I can't log out from the bed of the Vulture. Hope it'll be fix soon, but it seems important to know at the moment :)

Side note: The Mirai Pulse has a passenger seat as well

I like the Retaliator with it's modularity. What I don't like is its inability to be modularized with aUEC.

watched the video just to see if racing is mentioned in herald section)

amazing intro Vid, i was lost until i found this. even wrote down all the hot keys for my second monitor. thanks for making vid.

Where can I buy the Dragonfly Yellowjacket ingame ?

Just got a vulture, still need to make use of it for some salvaging, alas Dawntrail hit the market so am kinda distracted for a while.

First, I really do like Drake's design philosophy. When I got introduced to SC in 2951, I sort of fell in love with the look and feel of the caterpillar. As Loud Guns points out, it isn't nearly as versatile as the Crusader counterpart, It gives off 70's sci-fi vibes, thinking Alien here, mixed with that same era's fighter craft like the F 15 series. Very minimalistic and the cockpits especially will make you believe there's a chance that the seat is going to jam on a rusty rail that's been abused just a bit too much while moving you into position For the unpopular part of my comment, I've never felt particularly attracted to the cutlass series. I think it's fair to say that i simply haven't given them a fair shake but I also haven't felt a particular draw to do so. The roles that the ship typically fills, I have found myself using other ships to fill. That being said, I am not opposed to trying them out. I also note that the pledge store indicates a review of the ship is under way and in light of this, I may change my stance toward it.

A correction to your note about the amount of boxes you can get in the Vuture, with careful positioning it is possible to get 26 SCU of RMC in the cargo area with 13 in the hopper. That will net you over 550 K. It takes some doing because you have to hold F and zoom in on the controls, but it's certainly possible.

Nice, and in the next patch they have taken all your ships and money - what do you want with a game like this ?

The only thing I would add to what you mentioned, is the awesome gun rack on the Cutter.

Drake Cat is my dream cargo hauler. Sadly cargo hauling specially as a solo player is not gonna be as easy as one would like in the future.

Drake all the way!

As a happy Vanguard owner I love the heavy fighter, the XL-1 drive makes it an insanely good daily driver for a bunker and ground mission runner like me who occasionally likes to face a few ships to blow up in space. It can tank a LOT of damage even once the shield drops. And can nurse it home even with most of the ship missing if things went south. As a solo player it is definitely my ultimate choice ^^

You had me at Drake

Having loved both the CAT and C2, it's a hard choice, especially once the cat gets modules. There is just something really lovable about the Cat, despite the advantages of the C2. Sadly I think I won't end up with either. I Might end up with an M2 (coz of a killer CCU) but my cat will become a 600i (also, due to a killer CCU)

The Vulture really is the king of non-combat ships.

I keep thinking that the "Herald" will make a good recon/intel gathering ship, ie: look/gather/get outa there. ;-) I'm not sure what would be better a Cutlass with 40 size one missiles or 16 size two Rattler IIs (7 micro missiles per = 112)?

That would be very cool--and pretty logical actually--if they had missions where you just need to fly a ship from one location to another. This would not only explain how you can request a ship that you know you parked elsewhere in the solar system, but it would be very cool for newer players to make a few bucks flying a random assortment of ships across the system.

Bumper sticker on a Cutty: "If you ever see me on a 890, you know I fucked up bad."

Can't imagine playing the game without a Cuttlass Black and Vulture.

Caterpillar Chud Gang

Corsair is the best. Love my Corsair so much, offers so many game loops. Have a pledge Corsair and ironclad

side note on the Caterpillar; in the future it is planned for it to have modular compartments you can swap out, as well as being able to dethatch the command module, making the caterpillar slightly more versatile then its competitor the C2, being able sacrifice some of its cargo capacity for something like a medical compartment, or a small vehicle repair bay, and being able to fly the command module to do something else while the main hull is being loaded with cargo. also both the main hull and the command module are equipped with tractor beams, they are in quite useless positions as they can not reach into the main cargo deck of the ship, but i guess its better then not having tractor beams

I suspect the cat will be handy for multiple stop cargo missions

great vid love drake. side note did youtube totally gave me an auec sellers ad on this vid?! someone called instauec??

I rather have the catapillar over the C2,, it just looks better, and honestly, yes its weaker in most points, tho id say better firepower, and the diffrence in cargosize isnt too much, i dont see the need to pay 6 mil more for 120scu more cargo, and again,, i really dont like the looks of the C2, it looks... eh,,, i generally tend to enjoy crusader ships, but not the Hercules series, but thats me, the catapiller, especially pirate-skin is amazing despite i dont really do piracy, im just your averege trucker in the verse =)

When the game has so little content that you are stuck doing the same videos over and over again

I received a free fly Vulture for two days during Invictus and made enough to buy my own in-game....REnting onew would be a good way for starting players to get a leg up.

fav drake ship is my daily driver, my cutty red. Although I do like to take out my corsair now and again . Well done with another brill video Sir.

The Drake Scout got a bigger cargo room then the other variants but like you say less cargo grid then the other. maybe it fits better vehicles ?

The Cutter is giving me major Razor Crest from The Mandalorian vibes

I am fully aware that the Connie is superior to the Corsair but ill still choose the Corsair anyway purely on looks. Its just such a cool design and while you loose some cargo space having a functional living space is such a nice feature for it. Feels like a home where as the connie feels like a cheap RV on the inside. Plus it looks more realistic having exposed wire and piping vs something smooth and sterile like crusader or origin. Feels like a working ship where quick access to parts is an essential part of daily maintenance.

I've seen way too many Cutlass's defeated by a single pass of ballistics popping one of the engines off to ever buy one. Though I am a bit surprised you didn't mention that the Cutlass Steel's HP has been buffed to over 108,000, more than double of any of the other models...

Drake ships may vary in quality and usefulness, but their artistic assets are second to none. Their design language is so cool and unique too.

I feel like drake stands on the same ground of weapon makers. We are making money, we care not from which the money flows!

I have more Drake in my fleet than any other make. They just have broad varieties compared to most atm.

thanks for making this I really enjoy your content.

As a drake enthusiast, The corsair is probably the last drake ship i would buy up to this point. Also, the front section where the copilot sits, i get the impression that copilot was intended to use the bottom s5 guns, but at the last minute, someone decided that the pilot should have them instead, and gave the front seat with forward view the rear turret. IMO this ship is a mess.. And not in a drake way

Ah Drake the objectively best manufacturer

Hey Loud Guns you forgot the Cutter Rambler

Did you guys know that you can build your own Drake ship with duct tape and scrap metal

High quality content right here lads, GJ!

very good video thank you at 18:44 theres a big 16scu box produced how do you do that ?

10/10 - Forklift.

Why on the Pledge Store does each ship have different labels Sabre (Stealth Fighter) and the Sabre Comet (Medium Fighter) this is a bit misleading?

Love the white heron paint! I prefer the taurus though.

I Bought the retaliator with money and you can switch out the modules just prob not if you buy in game tho.

The Retaliator has been fun to fly. It looks and sounds amazing and the cargo modules are not half bad. If only it had a couple of pilot controlled guns!!
