I like the idea where one side stole a ship, looks cool with the radar
its a neat idea!
Hey! It's falipretel here, I'm so proud of actually getting my entry shown off in the video! Thank you from the bottom of my heart dude.
no problems man! wonderful creation!
@@LunarKolony I'm glad you liked it! Can't wait for the next build event :)
Tanks for choosing my ship as the winning Javelin refit (I'm BeanBoy btw). I incorporated a lot of my style into the ship so that's why it looked so industrial, I now realise that I probably should have refit it in your style but oh well, I'll make sure to do that in the next competition!
Your concept of a frigate is a lot smaller than mine. I'd have classed it as an Escort Destroyer, just one up from our corvettes.
An aesthetic I always like is when a ship just gets more armor, weapons, and superstructure stapled on. Some of my favorite battleships has AA battery emplacements slapped everywhere.
You have two choices one have a light and fast ship with minimal armor.. or two have a bulky slow moving ship that practically does not move because you want to fill up every entire single section with heavy armor blocks
I think this is a general rule why most people with experience don't fill in those gaps inside of the armor it makes the ship lighter and it saves on PCU as well
But hey nobody stopping you from giving the ship extra weight and taking it online to see how good of a winner or failure it will become... Also keep in mind if the ship does have planetary flight it probably won't after you add the extra armor pieces I wouldn't know I wasn't paying attention to that part of the video as I'm doing something you're just running in the background but what you said kind of stuck out to me like that's why people keep gaps in their ships so their ships are actually maneuverable
I''m actually pretty surprised that none of the winners used custom Autocannon turrets for anti-fighter defense - those turrets absolutely shred small ships.
But both winners are absolutely gorgeous ships, congrats to them both!
There's two downsides to them.
1. Building them in survival can be a pain.
2. If you want to get full range out of them you need to use a large-grid turret controller, which makes them very much not plug-and-play.
Personally I feel they're worth the downsides, but after a heated argument with some of the people in Lunar's community (a lot of them still have a pre-warfare 2 mindset and think that gatling turrets are the holy grail of combat) the general consensus over there is that the range loss is never worth it.
I actually like Zippy's entry. The Templar Frigate's extra space allowed me to fit in a refinery and assembler to make it a nice mobile base
You can always appreciate a subtle among us reference in a ship even these days
P.s. man has a viewport obsession
6:57 ban all the hazard lights! An emphasis on safety will inevitably reduce productivity. Workers are replaceable, the bottom line is not. I will not report any losses this quarter.
cant have a zippy ship without the backrooms™, also it was filled with the other version i published, but i forgot to also add it to this copy since i seperated it earlier in the building process
Amazing as always !
7:36 I really like the use of those angled armour panels to create small angles walls.
For future cinematic with these you could probably use the other refits for one off variants of the Templar like how say your javelin class getting turned into awacs for a one off ship
38:19 could've been improved with the new Willis ducts or what ever they are called.
Very cool
34:58 that twin railgun turret looks really Homeworld Deserts of Kharak to me.
With all the birthing in the second to last ship it makes me think it would work as a kind of special forces mission ship for a team.
Nice vid. Some decent entries in here.
I see you found the secret cockpit.
ahhhh so it was a secret
Dang, I missed this one. Nice batch of entries, and I think your choice of the winners is bang on.
love seeing everyone elses
AWACS is said as a word. It sounds like "a wax"
WTF I recognize PhZD Composer from the Patreon wall in Mad Mavn's videos. I wanna hang out with this guy.
What Lunar did a video on a build challenge? Imposable.
where do i sign up to participate?
must admit atm i got my hands full to play SE, but i like to build, upgrade, remake ship all the time :)
PS: also, love view ports XD
They get posted every so often in my discord server :) we also have people in the community hosting their own challenges !
20:59 weight saving
How is it I keep missing the announcement of these challenges, and only find out about them after the fact? Is it a secret handshake kinda deal?
they are announced in the community announcement tab of the discord
@@LunarKolony Ahh, Discord, thought I’d missed a vid release!
Would you be up for taking concept ships and seeing what people do with it? I have a fun concept ship, but suck at detail.
12:14 says "imposter-ble"
This video was awesome are you going to do a carryer build soon it's the one I have been whating for
18:44 WTF you could have put a firing position there for another assault Cannon. You could have put an actual AI controlled artillery Canon there. Wasted space on what is that you call it? Some kind of decoration.
ViewPORTS
Hi, Lunar.
I really like your videos, but my sound sensitivity is really getting set off by how loud the sudden '***VIEWPORTS***' is. I know it's not super important, but if it' s affecting me, it probably affects some other people. Could you make sure to eat the mic just a little less when you're emphasizing in the future?
Anyways, I love watching all the build and build analysis videos, the commentary you provide and the running conversations during design videos is really thought-provoking.
Thanks for your time,
Tiamat
Thanks for the comment! Much appreciated, I know some like it, some don't, so I will see if I can adjust things accordingly!
I watched this while trying to build my first ship. I crashed it 4 times.
Almost All Ships need a complete refit. Especially ones built on servers with rules. They often have limitations on how many and where you can put your guns and what kind of guns a ship size is allowed to have.
If a ship is built specifically for a server, then it only matters if it serves its purpose on that server. Not everything has to be a hardcore PVP-anarchy build.
18:35 so much wasted space and potential. Why is it so flat? Why aren't there elevated positions so turrets can super fire? Why is there a crap in front of the turret so it can't even shoot things directly in front of it? Why would you build a gun specifically with a cork in it? That toy is not going to hurt anything in front of it.
I've been conducting a lot of mock battles. Unfortunately I don't have any actual data that I can present to you.
absolutely fucking desimate a fighter lmfao
Not one person upgraded the conveyor system to the armored version
Possibly because on such a small ship it doesn’t mean much. Or perhaps someone added a reinforced conveyor tube every so often for structural integrity.
@@Cooldude-ko7ps they really do make a huge difference
