For so little effort it is a large amount of credits. Illegal goods will always be the big money maker but at least newer players can have a safe route to making money. Enjoyed the chilled video man keep it up!
One sad thing is that they reduced the price of Weevil eggs from roughly 113,000 to something around 20,000, so I guess at least this isn't worth it anymore.
@@BattleChickenYT haven't checked myself, but according to uexcorp its like 23k, however data from dec 19th claims they are still at 112500 per SCU in 3.24.3. Haven't gotten my hands on any weevil eggs myself in 4.0 yet, but uexcorp normally has correct data.
@ literally that’s why they narrowed that entrance. At the time, people looked at the dimensions and realised it would fit and spirit owners had a shit fit, then marketing had a bitch moment and thus the Zeus line was fucked over.
If you were sprinting on the stairs, that is probably why. Sprinting causes alot of the problems people run into. Good rule of thumb is to never sprint or turn down your walk speed over gaps like on the tram and elevators, on stairs, and any tight areas like ship interior corridors and cockpits.
I will make a note of that 🤣 never had it happen before. All as a group running through new Babbage and just collapsed dead, no timer or anything. Just ceased to exist
@@BattleChickenYT Yeah, used to happen all the time. I've had entire parties die to sprinting down stairs. Something about the physics engine suddenly imparts a huge force to you and it just outright kills you with no incap or anything. Great video though and I thouroghly enjoyed it!
@Macs212 that's ace! I'm definitely trying that. I don't know if that says something about me that I'd sacrifice being able to see properly just to not have to get out of my seat virtually 😅
My favorite thing about 4.0 is spending 45 minutes loading my Starlancer with 10 stacked hauling contracts, flying 2 minutes to the destination, spending 45 minutes unloading it, then SERVER ERROR right as I lower the elevator with all the cargo in it.
Awesome! I actually didn't loke it when I first got it and immediately upgraded to the Connie but after coming back to it, i actually really like it! Except, as you say, the cargo grid and hatch haha
Yeah that didn't work either sadly. Neither did dropping it on the ground and picking it up as when I did pick it up from the ground, I just kept hurling it across my hangar instead of drinking 🤣
It is but I actually quite enjoy doing it by hand sometimes when I'm not in a rush to get it done and just chilling you know? Maybe it's just me but I find it weirdly relaxing 😄
With a bit more finagling the 1 high scu boxes should fit above the 8 scu's. Also I haven't had a problem with carrying cargo off-grid in the zeus, though I have yet to try it in 3.24 so can't be too sure of that now
So the best routes so far are from the space stations to the space ports. In Arc corp had 6 missions with 78 scu and made over 500,000 currency in one run. Lots of 1 scu boxes though.
That's insane! Think I had a bad roll with the contracts and only these showed up for me at the time. I don't mind it all being 1scu if I have an atls, makes a huge difference
@ Well it did have a bad start, my Argo Lift launched me across the hangar killing me. But I think it’s mostly luck getting multiple mission at one place.
I've had a hangar queue a few times but thankfully not been impounded! Hopefully eith their focus for 2025 apparently being stability, things may get better
Hauling with the starlancer is top tier. Honestly if you don't have an ATLS yet I'd highly recommend one. I would take that thing over a ship tractor beam any day and it's super cheap. 75k credits if I remember correctly?
There was a Shubin outpost (SAL-2) freight manager was locked in the top and bottom and I could not deliver and collect the freight I was supposed to do. I ultimately abandoned the hauling mission and lost reputation. So disappointed in the 4.0_PREVIEW.
Is the pick up location definitely the location you're currently at? I have seen some comments from people are saying the ck tracts aren't working for them. Maybe I got really lucky on this run!
New Babbage is a no go zone right now! I don't recommend landing at NBIS if you're in a medium ship. 9/10 the hanger doors will bug for you and you will be stuck! Not sure how long until a fix will be released. Just a little tip! 😁 Merry Christmas!! 🎄
I have absolutely no idea. Not joking, this is the first time I've had a playable hour on 4.0 so far and I took the opportunity to record while I could!
@ haha amazing well done and thanks for sharing. Have to admit, I’m a little jealous 😅 I deleted the game but will download it now to see if I can get it working again based on your video. Nice content and delivery btw and I liked you approach of requesting subs; “if you keep coming back and like my content”. If I do, I will. 👍
Thank you so much 🙏 really does mean a lot. There was a small update a few days after they dropped 4.0 preview branch so maybe just maybe that resolved it. But as we all know with star citizen it may have broken it more 🤣
I do love the look of the zeus exterior and interior, but the cargo bay drives me nuts. They had so much wasted space it's not funny. I'm debating what to upgrade it to next year.
100% with you on this. The taurus is the logical next step and I've heard they are planning to do an interior pass to bring it in line with the zeus potentially. God knows how long it will take for that though
What with everyone hanging out at Microtech? Like all the content I see out of SC if not obviously Pyro is Micro. I remember when this placed was HATED and now it's flooded with folks. Time to find a new home.
An interesting perspective and something I hadn't noticed. This is the first time I've set my home as new Babbage. I got fed up with the long skyway at orison and areas 18s elevators never bloody worked 🤣
That's rough! Honestly this is the first play session that went relatively smoothly. My first day on 4.0 I attempted this, and a QT put me inside hurston...
Well unluckily.. For most of us these missions at the moment are horribly buggy.. Waiting 20 min for ships, waiting 10 min to be able to get hangers.. Most time system doesn't accept your delivered cargo.. Realy was unplayable.. So strayed to mine Wich was as buggy. This said.. Eptu was great
I think I got really lucky here. This was genuinely the first attempt where I didn't randomly qt into the centre of a planet/moon. I don't understand how sometimes it works well and the game is beautiful and then the next day it takes 2 hours to get out the hangar...
Man I don't know what's going on. I had some pretty bad sessions but I recorded this and put it out in the same day and it was fine. I'm guessing i got very VERY lucky for this short space of time. Hope they sort it soon
Hope you all have a great Christmas!

They really did the Zeus dirty with that narrow back hatch.
They really did! 😢
Can't even get an ursa in there 😮 would be a sich little solo pyro ship otherwise

Love the video. No min max stuff. Thank you.
Thank you so much 🙏 appreciate you!
They have changed the layout of the cargo on the zeus.
Merry Christmas
Love the content

@JS-wt8vf I bet that was a sight to see for anyone watching 😆
Thank you so much I really appreciate it!
Your content is very much worth a sub 😃
Thank you so much 🙏 really appreciate it
You can fly the ship from the tractor beam copilot seat if you want to do it all without getting up.
Ooooooooh I never actually tried that! That could be a game changer!
@@BattleChickenYT I think its one of the only ships that lets you do that. The flight view is less than ideal, but its better than getting up.
@Macs212 that's ace! I'm definitely trying that.
I don't know if that says something about me that I'd sacrifice being able to see properly just to not have to get out of my seat virtually 😅
@@BattleChickenYT The only reason I upgraded from the C1 was because of this, so I am right there with you lol.

This is the true star citizen experience!
Makes you wonder why we bother sometimes doent it? 😓
FYI if you drop the bottle on the ground you can put it in your hands that way
Yeah i had tried that earlier but then when trying to drink it, it kept getting placed/thrown across the hangar 🤣
Was just a bad day
Yeah, was gonna say the same. Looks like med bed is your option if you don’t feel like leaving the server
As soon as the video finished I sprinted to the medical centre and got there with 2% hydration to spare 😆
hey i also picked up a zeus CL good ship im liking it so far besides the cargo grid.
Awesome! I actually didn't loke it when I first got it and immediately upgraded to the Connie but after coming back to it, i actually really like it! Except, as you say, the cargo grid and hatch haha
Good taste on the Zeus skin, got the same one. Been hauling too definitely easiest most reliable credit in game rn.
It's so pretty!
I'm running the same ship and strategy as well. Good payouts.
Genuinely amazed by the payouts on this for so little work. You think it will stay this way for long?
FYI select the bottle in inventory, right click it and select "carry". then drink.
Yeah that didn't work either sadly. Neither did dropping it on the ground and picking it up as when I did pick it up from the ground, I just kept hurling it across my hangar instead of drinking 🤣
5:33 Why by hand? You got a tractor beam for your ship, right? Unless it's not the Zeuss with an integrated tractor beam.
It is but I actually quite enjoy doing it by hand sometimes when I'm not in a rush to get it done and just chilling you know? Maybe it's just me but I find it weirdly relaxing 😄

@othnielarkaine yep that sounds like star citizen alright 😆
Nice one!
the hanger que has got me a few times the i get impounded . after that you don't get back the ship unless claim from a different location
I've had a hangar queue a few times but thankfully not been impounded!
Hopefully eith their focus for 2025 apparently being stability, things may get better
loving hauling with my starlancer , wish it had a ship tractor beam tho

@@BattleChickenYT The atlas just moves to slow in my opinion.
@dark_winter8238 agree it's super slow at movement but if you position it just right and use freelook the loading is very fast
Be interesting to see if these changes stay in place. Not sure if it encourage people to not explore
There was a Shubin outpost (SAL-2) freight manager was locked in the top and bottom and I could not deliver and collect the freight I was supposed to do. I ultimately abandoned the hauling mission and lost reputation. So disappointed in the 4.0_PREVIEW.
Aw man that's rough! From what I've been reading in the comments so far it seems I had a very lucky run here and many people have been having problems
the cargo from the contract isn't showing up in my hangers warehouse!?
Is the pick up location definitely the location you're currently at? I have seen some comments from people are saying the ck tracts aren't working for them. Maybe I got really lucky on this run!

Great tip! I did not know that at all!
Guess I didn't have to worry about that with the large hangar but that really sucks for sure.
Same to you! 🎄
Why dont you use the tractor turret - it works pretty well on the Zeus!
I did a bit later on but sometimes if I'm not in a rush I quite like doing it by hand. There's something satisfying about it and I don't know why lol
Woohoooo 🐔🌯
How are you even getting this game to work? I’ve been unable to do anything in 4.0 after numerous attempts

Hauling os bugged. If you stack missions you'll end up having one that is broken.
A lot of people are saying this and maybe I just got lucky. This is on the live preview branch and it worked for me this time 🤷♂️
i was doing twice mission 1day ago from bejing station to riker memorial on arc corp and seems to be worked just fine 200auec im down for it in 20min
Sadly these contracts never worked for me. Doesnt really matter, since my account got the lovely 60k error :)
