    Yes this is great the Argo Raft is a very cool ride it also has a huge and I mean hugh fuel tank for Quantum travel,if you put the fastest drive in it which is the XL-1 you get speed 260,701 and a max distance of ready for it 1150.33GM it cost 94900 and is at Orison or Port Tressler and if you put the most efficient drive in which is the Hemera you get speed of 126,626 and a distance of 3286.67 GM it cost 38250 at CRU-L1 or CRU-L5 and if you put the most fuel conservative drive in it which is the Sparkfire speed of 74,486 Km/s and a distance of 5061.47 GM it cost 56100 at grim hex or Bajini point.I think this is the longest distance ship in the game as far as drive to fuel tank ratio.Not to mention the ship is pretty cool the way it's laid out and it's great for out of atmosphere but flies like a brick in atmosphere,I put 2 JS-400 for power plants and 2 FR-76 shields and then 2 Snowpack coolers and went with the Hemera Drive and armed it with all Dominance 1 laser scatter guns and the remote turret with 2 size 3 Dominance laser scatter guns as well,it's not a fighter so hit them hard and run.they will bloody their noses while you try and jump.The 96 scu I wish was 4 racks and 128 to compete with the freelancer max and the new RSI coming out but it is what it is,I think its as cool if not better in different ways than the hull A more armor for one it is beefy and it's living quarters is pretty well laid out like the Mole.Great video and topic so happy this has come full circle to win back people.

      sad to said I belive the super usefull Quantum tank is a comma error I have not dared to bring up, becuse I dont want CIG to remove it, but..
      QT tank ARGO Mole 2'758,5 And QT tank ARGO SRV 2'758,5 And then the QT tank ARGO Raft 27'585 Hm.. Somewhat familiar numbers...
      Hush.. Dont want them to takeaway games bigest QT tank on a size 2 QT. almost as big as on the Carrack, Half the size of Hull-C, but those ships has a bigger QT that consumes more. Without checking I would guess that the Raft has the longest qt range in the game. And the interior.. I love the Raft, but I am waiting every patsh for the dev hammer to strike the obvius comma error qt tank.

      as someone who has flown the freelancers as cargo i can tell you their size is deceptive, if you really want to fill all of those super small tiny slots i guess it has more space.
      but if you go by what i call "easy cargo space" the raft has it beat its entire scus is easy cargo space

    Now, if CIG would just add the fourth 32 scu mount, it would be almost perfect.

  • @festersmith8352
    @festersmith8352 4 місяці тому +31

    I think this would look better if the arms lowered down, and the crates can fit onto flat racks. Flat racks can exchange out for a single larger container.
    But I gotta be realistic here, and know that will only add to the dev time of the project. Maybe in the distant future.
    For now, this makes the raft way more useful.
    Edit: maybe 6 flat rack or 6 16 SCU crates, or a mix looks feasible.

      They should just remove the cranes and put a standard cargo plate there. Give it something like 8x32 SCUs in two layers of 4. There's not a lot in the 250 SCU range too, would fill a good niche.

    Velcro ship 2000 but yea would be worth it weight in gold to haul novas, ballista, and spartan or carry torps to put into a Polaris or Colossus bombs for a A2, carry massive construction pieces or mass amounts of resources. I could see them carrying boxes of solid or resources or tanks of gas or tanks of water or oil. I see it painted parts black with caution stripes with the main box painted John Deere green with some yellow notes on it. I see on it as the landing legs come down spinning caution lights with light slicing through dust clouds.

    They need to rework the argo raft. If it is going to hold cargo like that, then it needs more clamps or an enclosed drop-down cargo bay

    • @Sarazoul
      @Sarazoul 4 місяці тому +1

      They just need to make 32 containers openable with a grid inside to put in 1-2-8 SCUS boxes in.
      As it was originally designed to do.
      The entire idea of the Raft is saving time by load and unloading three 32 SCU containers quickly.
      This change defeats the entire purpose of the ship.

    Big win. But maybe they'll let us have our interior inventory again, cause right now 3.24 has ruined my RAFT. Something simple like dragging food, armor, etc. into my ship has now turned into a pain in the ass with physicalized inventory. The RAFT doesn't have a giant cargo door to make moving stuff inside of it easy!

    I don't know that I'm sold on the Raft. Or the smaller Hulls, for that matter. It seems to me that the ability to store internally (e.g., Freelanter MAX) is > than external-only (but I did see the ISC where they stored everything possible on external cargo grids, so maybe that will negate my complaint).

    SuperMacBrother this looks absolutely amazing and thank you for doing this cause I'm very happy for all those who ownership. Because it will now make them even happier and goes to show that CIG is indeed listening to us backers and they are working very hard and making the game better.
    In addition, I have to say I like the way you have your character in game because it looks very much like you sir.
    Plus, on a little note for those who are using the Intel 13,000 series and 14,000 series CPU there is currently a huge problem with that ship and if your game is crashing on you it is more than likely the CPU chip that is the cause of the problem and not the game. If you have the CPU chip then start looking up news on Intel because I strongly recommend that you watch the videos from Gamers Nexus to get more details on it and to see if you can be compensated through Intel for what they have done to you if you own this trip. Because Intel had knowingly sold you a defective product and we're trying to keep it hidden from the general public and got caught with their pants down.

      No, in 3.23 you can't stack multiple boxes like you can in the video -- you can only put one box per crane arm. So they actually fixed how it worked prior to 3.24 and you can not use modular box stacking for the Argo to make up its 96 SCU cargo, which is awesome.

    • @AaronJohnson1969
      @AaronJohnson1969 4 місяці тому

      FreeMax is a tad faster and for base FreeMax has more shields than the RAFT, but the RAFT’s QT/Hydro tanks are HUGE/hold more than the FreeMax. So the trade off really is more SCU for the MAX but you cannot get the mileage like the RAFT (which has little less scu).

    Raft is a cargo shit...specially if you trying to load per 1 scu cargo
    You will have trouble decking 1 scu on top of another scu box on the edge of the cargo hold.
    Is ok if you are using it for selling mining haul. Because it can autoload directly to the ship, and lots of time mining use bigger SCU cargo box. But if you are trying to sell salvage scu box from Vulture, because vulture using per 1 scu box. don't use Raft is you are selling 96 scu at once, better get freelancer or Hull A

    amazing would be Tractor beam Physics behavior being optmizased and maybe having a level planner style tractor beam that moves and places objects preset and can "RESET THEM" like bowling pins
    actually i should a Stationary tractorbeam can can arange Skittles would be epic.
    Still want to see malstom allow for Crafting primitives out of dug out ground materials like stone granett lead steal gold etc and allow us to use a Carpentry system to cut them in to shapes and maybe do it in a way that every tool does a thing and they are accurate
    it's all about simulation detail levels once they figure how to do that they can create SEED protocals that can create veriants of plants etc.
