@CasterPenn it would be nice if you could take that out of the interceptor and place it in other ships, that would solve this issue. Hovering is so useful and better for navigation, it should be standard. And the UFO from the last expedition was a disappointment because it does not.
@ICountFrom0 I have not tried to remove it from that hauler. It has an excellent body and no regular hauler has those neat adjusting jets. Not planning on scrapping one, but that you can is neat.thanks!
The upside of the shuttle is, there's no downsides. The downside of the shuttle is, there's no upsides. It's perfectly middling, and a bit mid. I found one that I happen to like, with a cluster of 3 supercharged slots and then a single a little further away. 3 to weapons, and one to boost maneuverability, brings the stats up nicely. It'll never be as good as anything else, but it works well enough for me.
BIG downside to the boundary Hearald is that it's big. Largest footprint of any ship. Makes it hard to land when your not at a point of interest with a landing pad. Edit: New patch will help this.
Interesting video. Long-time Player who has amassed a mixed bag - 1 Hauler for resupply (one of my first ships, since maxed), 2 Fighters, 2 Sentinels, 2 Solars (one home-built), and 5 Exotics (no Squids). I originally TRIED to keep a spot open for salvage work and Just In Case, but that last Exotic ended THAT .......chance meeting with a full Royal, a configuration I liked, and it was even in my favorite color. Enough said. Always had a big fondness for Exotics. With their looks, performance and limited starting interiors, I think of them as 'space-Ferraris'. Never much cared for Explorers, mainly an aesthetics thing. Also, whilst I don't neglect Hyper capabilities for other ships, my general approach is that big Hyper jumps is one reason why I have a Freighter. Never gone for Living Ships. They came across as kind of a fad to me, upgrading is complicated, don't care for the looks, and I have long believed, "NEVER get cozy with something that looks like it's just one bad day away from going Full Face-Hugger." :)
I think one of the perks of those is being able to galaxy-jump without damage, right? Haven't tested it myself, but will give it a go in the near future...
@@van_fanel_117 Sure, would have been popular once upon a time, for that reason. But these days, all you need is a Portal Address to dial up for whichever galaxy you want, and you're on your way.
@@van_fanel_117 I don't think I ever received any damage to my ships when jumping, my shield modules are all at 30%. S class, then 1 in a supercharged slot boosts it even more.
Im a total exotic Royal 7 fan! Best looking Cockpit also, the overall design is amazing! Everything is round and and streamlined. Love the split dual thruster animations and they can get crazy good with the right SC layout
I was lucky enough to find a Royal 7. Pure fluke, didn't even know what it was at the time. It landed on a tradeing post and I went "ooooh, look at that " YOINCK. Used it ever since
S Class Sentinel ship with 4 Supercharged slots together is my best space ship, love the hover mode. Haven't even tried to get a Living ship yet. Been playing this game 4 months and all my space ships including frigates plus Squadron fighters are all S Class.
What I like about sentinel ships in comparison to others is the ability to hover, to stop completely mid-air and hover. It's great for when you're searching for something. With more ships coming in the future (plus the ones I still don't have), I'm already dismantling the boring old ones to make room.
I played a lot in VR early on (not so much now), and the Exotic for sure had the best overall visibility. When searching for things on-planet I could lean over left or right and look down to the ground easily.
Senty is my go to. Fully kitted out, no need for anything else 😂 I do like the look of exotics and solars... But they are just ornaments really and will gather dust in my freighter thing. Alongside the other ships I need to destroy...
Great vid. I got kinda lucky and found a squid ship early on and it's been my main ship for a long time. Recently got a Sentinel that's becoming my main. What I'd like to do though, is learn how to get the parts to make my own squid ship (I call it Vorlon) with a different color scheme. Is there a difference between Alien, Exotic and Experimental? I thought my squid was Experimental, but I could be mistaken.
Nice to see someone else link the Squid Ships to the Vorlon Ships from Babylon 5, I've thought the same ever since I got my first squid several years ago. Can't currently craft your own (I kind of hope HG don't ever let us), but it would be nice to be able to re-spray them one day.
@@Adrena1in Yeah, I learned you can only build your own explorers, fighters and haulers. I agree it's probably a good thing we can't make exotics. They would become very commonplace.
Just bought my first exotic ship a couple weeks ago. Got all exited and immediately started moving over all had tech I had installed on my main ship. Turned out to be a disappointment as the Sentinel ship I was already using was better in almost every way. Can't remember exactly but I think the Exotic had slightly better shields. Gonna try again if I run across another one that looks cool.
@@CasterPenn Oh I know. Only ships I've used since I found the first one I liked the look of a long time ago. Just thought an Exotic would compare a little better.
The only issue with the sentinel ship, is that when they arnt boosting, they turn like a truck and the turn ability is tied to boosting on sentinels, as end of the day they are Interceptors ie made for straight lines and intercepting other ships. All other ships turn the same if they are boosting or not.
The fact that Exotics are best found in 3 star systems is just a myth, mainly spread around by UA-camrs who dont know any better, some of who have been playing 5 or more years (This is not aimed at the author of this video but other youtubers who should know better). Exotics have a flat 1 in 301 spawn rate in all charted space over all economy levels. My qualifications on this are currently 589 virgin exotic finds documented.
@@johndavies4801 Disagree on all counts. My own experience is that Exotics are a close match with Fighters, with an edge in maneuver and especially jump, but possibly a little behind in firepower. More well-rounded generally, is my own judgement. As for looks, that's 100% a personal aesthetics thing. There are ship classes I dislike on the grounds of looks, but still accept that others can feel differently. For me, I don't like the looks of Squids, but quite like the other Exotics. :)
Alot of them are extremely dated and nobody uses them . They need removing and new models brought in. The haulers are terrible with the exception of the Iron Vulture. Also the explorer ships are pretty bad. They made us use them in the expedition.
I find the Living Ship to be really inferior in stats even with upgrades (unless I'm missing some which I don't think I am). It just doesn't seem to be nearly as strong as other ships in the game. The one trick of turning it into a 'God-tier' ship by switching the innards to some glitched out, overclocked interceptor modules is very unsatisfying as you can only use it in Creative mode. Is there a way of making a Living Ship even stronger than the mild increase upgrades provide?
Living ships have a few major advantages, first off they are very high base quality, they have problems with the ability to get upgrades of any kind, you will be spending hours in game trying to get even minimal upgrades. Some of the upgrades are so hard to find that I have only encountered three copies of them, too hope that I would get the best versions of them, I had to use a trick to make the upgrades the best possible. You need to arrange the upgrades in a special order for all ships and they are only consistently out matched by the sentinel ships. The rewards ships from Expedition and other things are only slightly better than average.
I'm told the trick is that the upgrades themselves are upgradable once installed, but given that they seem to cap at S rank stats, and everything else can get a bit higher then S eventually, So hows this for an idea? An expedition about a lost living ship program, done in secret, in some far flung high number galaxy. The rewards are all items for living ships and living freighters, tying the two together in some way. With the final reward being a work station you can build, put living ship upgrades into, that turns them into X rank experimentals, that eventually ends up in the quicksilver shop the way the liquidator bits did. Maybe we could also get another weapon type while I'm dreaming.
@ICountFrom0 What I'm about to say might sound strange or gross even but they could have a missile launcher on the living ships if they wanted. Right now the living ships have been restricted to a Bio laser system but multiple things that would make living ships better exist in real life to a certain extent or could easily be imagined as unique in living ships. For example a cloak, a kind of chaff/ flair system, and a kind of missile system or swarm micro drones. The missiles or swarm micro drones could look something like the zerg drop pods in starcraft or tyrinidd drop pods from Warhammer. Both of those are loosely based on sperm, then for the micro drones those also exist in real life. Many starfish and starfish related animals have the ability to release small swimming, biting, sometimes stinging things when under attack. As for the cloak octopus, squid, cuttlefish all have the ability to actually change their colors and skin texture to become nearly invisible to most things. There are also jellyfish that can produce a cloud of stinging cells. The last thing I could see the living ships having is a disabling ability, slime tentacles that can shoot out to grab something. These things said you can cause massive amounts of damage through ramming in any ship but living ships have a tendency to have a separation between their damage taken hit box and impact damage dealing impact damage. In other words the hit box that you take damage from has a tendency to be much smaller than the actual ship size and it will damage things you hit more than other ships this way but you will also probably be taking massive damage yourself.
Yup, plenty of options. So a second living ship expedition where we go into them might be cool. Start us on a planet with a damaged living ship, end of it's life...
@@jedstanaland2897 Thanks. I liked the fact that you could pay to upgrade each module but it still seemed to have left me with a kind of basic ship. So, I'll do some research and make sure I have as many of the relevant upgrades as possible... I've also started launching my living frigates on missions to see if they bring back anything worthwhile. Thx.
@@johndavies4801 I disagree, Up to some videos I've seen, a lot of good info in it with some minor inaccuracies. I would of liked a little more on the advantages and disadvantages of each such as the sentinel ability to hover, or the self charging launch thrusters and good efficiency of pulse drives on solars making them good for beginners.
Haulers dont have bigger inventory anymore. All ships can have the same tech and storage slots. Also living ship upgrades are found in unoccupied systems as well as freighter missions. Exotic ships are ALWAYS S class & trash. (And yes you CAN upgrade the storage to be the same as i hauler. Guide is awful.
I have checked with NMS Discord in relation to Cargo sizes and they sent through a link to starships Max slots info and while every ship can have 60 Tech slots the cargo slots still vary - fighter can have up to 100 slots and a Hauler can have 120 slots.
Haulers START with the highest number of inventory slots, hence why they are the most expensive ships to buy and yes can be upgrades to 120 inventory slots. Some other class max out at only 100 inventory slots.

so basically its just a list of starships.. no mention of class bonuses or anything..
Only the one hauler from the expedition and the interceptors can hover. This is such a advantage that the other ones don't really matter at all.
That is a good point.
@CasterPenn it would be nice if you could take that out of the interceptor and place it in other ships, that would solve this issue. Hovering is so useful and better for navigation, it should be standard. And the UFO from the last expedition was a disappointment because it does not.
You CAN take it out of the hauler. So technically you can have hover in any custom hauler and in any interceptor.
@ICountFrom0 I have not tried to remove it from that hauler. It has an excellent body and no regular hauler has those neat adjusting jets. Not planning on scrapping one, but that you can is neat.thanks!
I miss my kitted interceptor. I'm currently running the boundary herald on a newer save. Interceptors are the best early game money makers tho imo
The upside of the shuttle is, there's no downsides. The downside of the shuttle is, there's no upsides. It's perfectly middling, and a bit mid. I found one that I happen to like, with a cluster of 3 supercharged slots and then a single a little further away. 3 to weapons, and one to boost maneuverability, brings the stats up nicely. It'll never be as good as anything else, but it works well enough for me.

Yea, same here. It's a very big ship.
Yup, only flew it a couple of times and it's parked...for good.
New patch makes it land easier, might be worth using now.
Starborn runner is my favorite ship in the game so far. I like how it can hover like the sentinel ships as well.
I don't have this one yet, but looking forward to when I do.
