Hey there's actually a much more simple way to claim The ship has yours after docking and killing the crew and you'll actually be able to go back to your other ship without even having to leave the area you're in
I’m 8 hours deep and I’m absolutely hook line and sinkered into this game, and I’ve barely scratched the surface. This game is a gem and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Bethesda
Agreed. I’m about 15 hours in and honestly I just feel like I hop on and go, “hmmm, what adventure (rabbit hole) and going to do tonight.” And its always something cool or interesting. Sometimes I don’t even get into any combat. Just dialogue and exploration.
To abscond with higher-class ships (B and C) you'll need to have your piloting skill Rank III or IV, respectively. Now, the hard way to do that is to venture out into space and dogfight everything you see in order to get the kill count required. Or... you can go join the UC Vanguard in the MAST district of New Atlantis (Jemison) and use the flight simulator there. Those kills still count towards your skill totals without risk to your ship or funds.
If you want to unlock Rank 4 of Pilot. Go to the UC recruiter you meet in the beginning of the game near The Lodge. Tell him you want to join. Take the Elevator click on computer to sign up follow rooms until Flight Simulator combat. Do that until Rank 5 if you can beat it. Back out the hatch and back in to do it again. Rinse and repeat until 60 kills if already rank 3 pilot. Also helps to have Skill points banked already.
As another tip/trick... BEFORE you board the ship to take it over, get at least 2 Ship Parts, in case you need to repair the ship after you take it over and make it flyable. once you take over the ship, put the ship parts in the ships inventory, then you can repair it and fly it away.
Register your ship under your own ship's menu settings once you've jumped away from the solar system you got it from.... it's a bit cheaper and you won't need to visit anybody, either.
You can capture landed ships without the faff. When exploring a planet, if you see a ship landing, head to the location. If it’s a faction you don’t care for, run onto the ship ignoring the guys outside (or the ship will take off), and murder the crew and claim. For responder ships you need to pick the lock, for pirates it’s not locked.
Head to the Den in the Wolf System when you find contraband (also always check the captain's locker on the bridge for loot separate to the cargo hold, which usually has some contraband in spacer/pirate ships), since they never scan your ship despite being UC territory and you can sell any contraband/stolen loot to the trade authority guy. Its the easiest way to cash in all of that illegal cargo.
@@OscarLopez-uw7of I've never seen any difference between the different Trade Authority stores for how much you get paid for contraband...Its possible, but I've seen nothing to suggest it. Also kind of beside the point as its the location you can access most easily for most of the early game, unless you can access the Key or the Mile. Everywhere else you run the risk of being scanned.
Registration is a bit cheaper if you just use your tab menu and the ships page. Works anywhere and costs less than the option that doesn't work anywhere. Some Todd-related reason for this, I'm sure.
Stealing ships is currently broken. For better than a week now, ships that land on planets while you're out exploring do not open their landing bay doors, nor does anyone come out. It's not possible to board the ships to steal them. Apparently many, many people have opened tickets about this with support, but so far Bethesda has not given any response or acknowledgement of the bug.
You are praising a video that is not informative. This video failed to say that you do not need the Targeting Control Systems skill to capture or steal a ship in space.
TLDR : unlock targeting skill for ship combat and use it in combat by pressing R. once the engines are down, board the ship, kill the crew and then take the ship for yourself. You'll need to register the ship in order to modify it or sell it.
Can you disassemble, keep modules of stolen ship to use on yours? I presume no need to register it if you just use it's parts? If stripped down does it cost less to register and sell?
@@MolnarG007 Nope. You can only sell what's on one ship (or the whole thing) and buy what is available at whatever ship place you're at. It's like not being allowed mix LEGO sets. Kind of a bummer.
@@dirkdar1 what do u mean how? Doxk, clear the ship, pilot seat, undock, go into menu right after, home ship, register, exit menu, target last ship, dock, board, pilot seat and home ship again.
As someone playing on very hard only. I am appalled at how much damage you can take from enemies. It’s ridiculous on how hard ship battles are on very hard.
Bethesda difficulties have always just been a damage slider, so I'm not surprised lol. Hard is a nice balance for me, but even so, I kinda agree that our ship feels much less tanky than most of our adversaries.
Interesting. The "super cool" thing that you are referring to happened to me the very first time I was caught with contraband. I had found a case of contraband in an abandoned station that was work like 12K . I wonder if the value of the contraband has anything to do with triggering this?
Absolutely DO NOT register at technician (unless you want to pay like 2-3x as much). Instead, do it from the ship menu. You will see a button for it granted you at least have one rank in pilot.
I've only been stealing landed ships so far, but I've run into a few class Bs when I wasn't ranked up in piloting, and it's frustrating when you go through the trouble of taking out all the mobs in a ship only to have to leave it behind or worse, reload because it went into space and you don't have a way to bring it back.
This video was very helpful, thank you! I learned a lot of new tricks and tips on how to steal ships in Starfield. I can’t wait to try them out in the game!
@@TheGameIsOverCy That is not the point of my comment. This video gives you incorrect information. The video clearly says that you need the Targeting Control Systems skill to steal ships in space and that is wrong. A lot of skills will make things 'easier' but they are not necessary.
I've taken a dozen ships to date; 5 with Lister, 7 with Dusty. Took a UC Responder today and EM'd the baddy in orbit. I did not know if I could have taken the Crimson Fleet ship and the UC R would go "home" to be used again so I exploded the boarded one. Really wish we could have more than 1 on display.
was planning to do my usual pick locks and so on to earn cash but stealing pirates ships it is , gonna take a good while to get the skills to get there but at the very least now i have a "quest goal" (tried for hours to pick a lock gave up to hard :D neat option thank you for the video.
What happend to the cargo in your original ship ? Is the ship cargo shared amoung the ships or unique per ship ? Do you have to move cargo yourself and how do you do that, between ships ?
you can pay registration fee from your ship view menu without going back to the ship engineer at a city or spacestation. I was able to do right after claiming the stolen ship, while in the cockpit.
Choosing the bounty hunter background is the best way to hijack enemy faction ship and of course always get id to contraband to avoid get caught and pay the fine
Did that too, can dock a spacer raven, but I can't enter their ship. There is no display on my docking gate. And I also can't undock anymore, have tp reload an earlier save
An easy way to get a lot of ship kills is to join the UC Vanguard and you will get access to their piloting training program, which is a VR type system and the kills in the program count as overall kills.
There's another way to steal ships from Pirates and Other Bad Guys. I stole 2 ships from Crimson and Spacers in 40 minutes. I caught them both on the ground. Saw a ship landing, ran up, saw it was a Bad Guy's ship and ambushed both groups as they came down the gangway. Ran up into the ship and commandeered the ship. The second one took off while I was inside so I started from orbit there. Lol. Registered and sold both ships to upgrade mine. Almost had a third ship 25 minutes later but he took off just before I hit the ramp. Tried to Boost up, but they booked it to orbit. Lol
I found a class C ship parked next to my first outpost at lvl 10...it was empty with no crew on board but obviously i couldn't fly it so i used the aluminium/iron to make adaptive frames got a few skill points from the exp and used the vanguard simulator to kill a lot of ships..which gave me one of the best ships ive found in the game its mobility is bad(but fixable) because its huge but so are its reactor weapons and cargo(when i say its big a mean big with more than one 3x3 habs)
If you take the pirate ships to the den space station in wolf system you can land and sell all that contraband stuff just inside the door. Close to new Atlantis too.
There's a way to register the ship where its value is much higher than registering with a technician. I don't remember how. It was a video I saw and can't find anymore. Something about 15 tips etc..
Thanks... I have target lock, but was just firing indiscriminately as I wasn't aware of how you targeted specific areas. Tutorials on how to do these things do come up during the game, but they tend to go in one ear and out the other. It's a flaw in the design of the game that you can't go back and revise what you've been told at your leisure, as there's no log... which is a big minus in such a huge universe
Exactly. There's an insane amount of stuff in this game that you don't get a1st time tutorial for. Someone told me about a menu that explains a lot of things you can do but it would honestly be MUCH better having a walk-through tutorial your 1st time trying something new
can you rip stuff off one ship and put it on another? like if you find a sweet upgrade for your fighter that is expensive on a ship that you pirate can you put those new snacky engines or whatever on your old ship? give it the old swaperoo?
Can you steal enemy ships that land on a planet? Every time I enter one, it gives me the option to leave or kill the crew to take the ship and then it kills me before I see anyone let alone kill them.
Your reactor should always match your equipment power, it will max fill all your mods on ship, the reactor only needs 1 point in it to work , so for instance if you have 30 reactor/ 30 equipment, it will in fact fill every single mods besides your grav drive even though the grav drive will appear to have missing power, it’s fine, all mods will thus be full and this means you will have fast cool downs and will be able to do more damage than if you have more equipment power vs the reactor ( example - 19 reactor / 15 equipment one of your items will be horrible
I need help, I robed one of those ships in the farthes sistem and It has shity reach in hiper jump and now i'm stuck. The planets don't have sivilication and I can't find my old ship, the mantis...
Never register a new ship with the Ship Technician...hit TAB, go to the ship section in the lower left corner then register it from there, you get a major discount if you do it that way.
I use the highest level Lazers, turrents and Em weapons and all my weapons are rank 4 and I have no problem with that. I keep all my weapons off , but my lasers, which is low and my EM weapons that are all the way up, so that doesn't seem to be the problem. I'm have an issue with keeping them in my sites long enough to target. I'm higher levels also and usually so is the ships I'm targeting, so it seems like they are flying faster than me and I'm just flying around in circles trying to get them in my target sites. I have arthritis in my hands so it's making it harder to keep it up, but I'm doing it and stay at top speed when the ship lets me hit it, but in most of these battles of trying to take down the ship, it seems like a cat and mouse game where we are going around in circles and it's taking so long and in most the battles, I just give up and turn my turrents and Lasers back up and just finish them to get it over with, because I can't keep on.. What am I doing wrong? I'm almost done with the game and I've just started doing the ship take overs so yeah, I'm sure it's something I'm screwing up, even though it feels like it's the speed of my ship. I have all the constellation crew in my ship and assigned, my piloting is maxed, I have all piloting magazine perks. I'm flying an Autobahn III that I have rebuilt and it's all top of the line parts. Any suggestions?
With an 85% registration fee, it hardly seems worthwhile. Do you have to register it? Can you just sell it without registration? Can you at least get it repaired without registration?
Registering a ship at the Ship Services Technician actually costs you more money. After you land the ship, go to the ship in your menu and register there directly, it'll cost you a bunch less than using the Technician... :)
3 months later, NO. It is owned by Constellation and Walter Stroud, and it wont let you sell. If you dock an enemy ship, though, then you can blow it up.
Unless you’re keeping the ship it’s not worth it. After registering it, you only get approx 1800 credits when you sell it. It is fun though so I guess there’s that😂
Okay I don't quite have this game yet so this is going to be kind of one of those weird questions after you take over ship when you landed on a planet and then strip it like check all the guys and check the entire ship out before you go to the spacedock and kind of claim the ship or does it not matter because if you get to keep everything on board the ship including all the dead bodies and all their items then by all means that'll be cool something tells me once you register to ship or sell the ship you lose all those items let me know which one it is
All the items in the ship go to the home ship's cargo hold if you change your home ship, so the items don't disappear, but I'm pretty sure what ever you leave on the bodies does. I haven't sold any ships yet, so I'm not sure how that works!
This does not work for me. After destroying the engines the R key only says target lock even when I am so close to the ship is touching mine. The R key just bring back up that zoomed in screen u use to target the engines no matter how close I am. Is there something else you have to do besides just destroying the engines to dock?
On PC it's Press and hold Left mouse button on Q and hold 'Enter' then release them together to sell unregistered ship. The unregistered ship must be on last slot (that is when you press Q, you should be able to see it). Working as of May 24.
low key the contraband is kind of part of the profit, the ship in the video would only profit like 5k tops after registering, you can spend 5k on med packs
i'm about 35-40hrs in at the moment and although i'm loving it i'm also getting really fed up of the bugs. there are just so many at this stage. Dialogue options which contradict, getting a task to "speak to someone" only to be told they are too busy to talk or they say "hi" and that it, i have to go sit and wait for 2-3hours in game before the missions will allow mw to continue. NPG's randomly walking through walls or speaking to me with their heads turned to either side. i land in MAST and every guard is on the floor dead? why? free loot is great but what on earth caused that? i sit and wait and all the guards come back to life again?? - then you add the terrible fighting gameplay, why can't i cover? shooting through walls, falling through the map etc. so many bugs it's crazy. i know CyberPunk got a lot of stick when it released but i feel as though this is the same or even worse in some areas and hardly anyone is talking about just how crazy buggy this game is.
5 days in and counting. Simply cant get enough of this game. And no, i am not a paid actor ;) this game is fantastic and still has more potential 👏 everyone that complains about this game has missing brain cells.
Never actually tried to sell a ship. I’ll look into it. I personally love collecting and customising them for different purposes. I know you can sell parts of the ship by removing parts in the ship builder. Never tried to remove every part to sell 😂
Yes, generally to register the lowest Class A spacer ships costs me 9k and it sells for 10k. So, rebuilding them as a nimble fighter as Nick shows is a better use of the smallest ones…
You have to pay 75 percent of the value just to register? At that point you may as well just buy a new one after all the work and skill points you have to put into it.
Easyst ships I have found which have massive storage is use wanted perk and the bounty hunters come can grt end game ship by just walking on to it normally npcs out having walk and u can kill last few people take off. So good and can have 3-4 cargo ship and then your set for rest of the game 😂
I noticed something.... All the ships you encounter in the wild but it doesn't let you actually steal it. When you go to a vendor to buy ships that ship pops up to be able to buy. I'd rather just steal it but nice to know lool.
Scan the ship - its class reflects the needed pilot skill to take it. Note that there are also things outside the A-C rating (Class M battleship for example) that are completely off-limits for player... acquisition.

also behind the cockpit in the simulator is a console if you pick the advanced level lock you can go into 'debug tools' and give yourself upgrades

Do you have to move cargo yourself and how do you do that, between ships ?
Late reply, but it all goes in the new home ship. If there is more stuff than cargo, your ship is just “over encumbered”, but there are no downsides.
Do you have to register the ship to sell it?
This question right here! Need to know, because the ship I stole is barely worth more then the registration fee and all I want to do is sell it.

EMP suppressors are 100x more effective at disabling ships than lasers. Plus this is not stealing it is called earning.

Big bang gun is the best for short range and midrange and kills instantly
hey! if you register your ships through the menu-> ship (down left), you pay less
So if you leave a ship Unregistered the only thing that happens is you can't modify it?
So wait is this not a great way to farm for credits too? Can sell ships whole hog?
If you register in your menu not at the technician st spaceport. You save money
Registration of ships is cheaper in the pause menu rather than at the ship builder.
I use the highest level Lazers, turrents and Em weapons and all my weapons are rank 4 and I have no problem with that. I keep all my weapons off , but my lasers, which is low and my EM weapons that are all the way up, so that doesn't seem to be the problem. I'm have an issue with keeping them in my sites long enough to target. I'm higher levels also and usually so is the ships I'm targeting, so it seems like they are flying faster than me and I'm just flying around in circles trying to get them in my target sites. I have arthritis in my hands so it's making it harder to keep it up, but I'm doing it and stay at top speed when the ship lets me hit it, but in most of these battles of trying to take down the ship, it seems like a cat and mouse game where we are going around in circles and it's taking so long and in most the battles, I just give up and turn my turrents and Lasers back up and just finish them to get it over with, because I can't keep on.. What am I doing wrong? I'm almost done with the game and I've just started doing the ship take overs so yeah, I'm sure it's something I'm screwing up, even though it feels like it's the speed of my ship. I have all the constellation crew in my ship and assigned, my piloting is maxed, I have all piloting magazine perks. I'm flying an Autobahn III that I have rebuilt and it's all top of the line parts. Any suggestions?
If we claim /register a ship then sell it, do we still get access to the ship parts on our outpost pad so that we can build with those models?
Think you just rank up the talent for more to appear
@@Leppo7 thank you.
FYI you can search the ship and remove any contraband before you go to a civilized system if you like to avoid any entanglements with the law.
With an 85% registration fee, it hardly seems worthwhile. Do you have to register it? Can you just sell it without registration? Can you at least get it repaired without registration?
If you have a PC I recommend getting the "Lower ship registration fees" mod. It lowers it to 20%, but I lowered it further to 15%
Yeah you can repair it without registering it you just can't modify it
@@danielc9312we need that mod for the DMV
Registering a ship at the Ship Services Technician actually costs you more money. After you land the ship, go to the ship in your menu and register there directly, it'll cost you a bunch less than using the Technician... :)
what happens to the hold contents of your old ship? Does one of your crew fly your old ship to Atlantis?
The teleport to the new home ship's cargo hold if you change the home ship
can we sell the first ship, the frontier?
3 months later, NO.
It is owned by Constellation and Walter Stroud, and it wont let you sell.
If you dock an enemy ship, though, then you can blow it up.
Btw if you worry about contraband, go search the ship and jettison it out
Do u get a bounty for steel ship
Unless you’re keeping the ship it’s not worth it. After registering it, you only get approx 1800 credits when you sell it.
It is fun though so I guess there’s that😂
There's a coffee you can add in a text file to adjust the% of the registration. Now the fee is 20% making 80% profit. If on PC that is. Nexus ftw
Okay I don't quite have this game yet so this is going to be kind of one of those weird questions after you take over ship when you landed on a planet and then strip it like check all the guys and check the entire ship out before you go to the spacedock and kind of claim the ship or does it not matter because if you get to keep everything on board the ship including all the dead bodies and all their items then by all means that'll be cool something tells me once you register to ship or sell the ship you lose all those items let me know which one it is
All the items in the ship go to the home ship's cargo hold if you change your home ship, so the items don't disappear, but I'm pretty sure what ever you leave on the bodies does. I haven't sold any ships yet, so I'm not sure how that works!
I've raided to much ships😅 my bounty with UC is over 200k right now🤔
Takes me some time to pay my bounty.
This does not work for me. After destroying the engines the R key only says target lock even when I am so close to the ship is touching mine. The R key just bring back up that zoomed in screen u use to target the engines no matter how close I am. Is there something else you have to do besides just destroying the engines to dock?
Are there other enemies you haven't dealt with yet? You can only dock once the other enemies have been taken care of.
Thats ship in the thumbnail is nice if u can doa vid on it?
You can search the ship and jettison any contraband.
Nice! Thanks.
Thank You!. 😃
Thanks for this vid.
Thank you
But but...If the engines have been destroyed/damaged how can you fly the ship back to base? Just wondering.
You fix them.
On PC it's Press and hold Left mouse button on Q and hold 'Enter' then release them together to sell unregistered ship. The unregistered ship must be on last slot (that is when you press Q, you should be able to see it). Working as of May 24.
The contraband are items in the ship, you put them in the cargo hold and jettison them and you won't have the issue
Or sell at Wolf system, or fast travel from a remote system directly to the surface and without scanned you will be outside of the city, 800m.
low key the contraband is kind of part of the profit, the ship in the video would only profit like 5k tops after registering, you can spend 5k on med packs
84% of the value of the ship to register - is it worth it?
i'm about 35-40hrs in at the moment and although i'm loving it i'm also getting really fed up of the bugs. there are just so many at this stage. Dialogue options which contradict, getting a task to "speak to someone" only to be told they are too busy to talk or they say "hi" and that it, i have to go sit and wait for 2-3hours in game before the missions will allow mw to continue. NPG's randomly walking through walls or speaking to me with their heads turned to either side. i land in MAST and every guard is on the floor dead? why? free loot is great but what on earth caused that? i sit and wait and all the guards come back to life again?? - then you add the terrible fighting gameplay, why can't i cover? shooting through walls, falling through the map etc. so many bugs it's crazy. i know CyberPunk got a lot of stick when it released but i feel as though this is the same or even worse in some areas and hardly anyone is talking about just how crazy buggy this game is.
5 days in and counting. Simply cant get enough of this game. And no, i am not a paid actor ;) this game is fantastic and still has more potential 👏 everyone that complains about this game has missing brain cells.
I would have already looted the contraband prior to taking the pilot seat.
And sell it to a safe vendor before trying to land in UC or Freestar space.
Don't forget the captains locker for loot
Can you destroy the engines in the simulation game
Thanks
But how do I _sell_ them?.. Do I still need to register them if I'm just looking to flip ships?
Never actually tried to sell a ship. I’ll look into it. I personally love collecting and customising them for different purposes. I know you can sell parts of the ship by removing parts in the ship builder. Never tried to remove every part to sell 😂
I had to register mine first, but I heard there are places you can sell unregistered ships in crimson fleet territory
Yes, generally to register the lowest Class A spacer ships costs me 9k and it sells for 10k. So, rebuilding them as a nimble fighter as Nick shows is a better use of the smallest ones…
You have to pay 75 percent of the value just to register? At that point you may as well just buy a new one after all the work and skill points you have to put into it.
Still seems a bit steep on price after all that work lol
Haha it kinda does but to buy a ship like that is far far more expensive for sure so ultimately it’s worth it. I know what you mean though.
True, 24K for a 29K ship that’s only 5K profit margin. As a percentage, you’re paying something like 80% of the value to register it.
This is so cool.
Easyst ships I have found which have massive storage is use wanted perk and the bounty hunters come can grt end game ship by just walking on to it normally npcs out having walk and u can kill last few people take off.
So good and can have 3-4 cargo ship and then your set for rest of the game 😂
I noticed something.... All the ships you encounter in the wild but it doesn't let you actually steal it. When you go to a vendor to buy ships that ship pops up to be able to buy. I'd rather just steal it but nice to know lool.
Scan the ship - its class reflects the needed pilot skill to take it. Note that there are also things outside the A-C rating (Class M battleship for example) that are completely off-limits for player... acquisition.
