[FYI before purchase] NPC crew is not included in Official release. Large Ship is not for most of Players. You need real players to play house in your ship.
Kraken for me, waiting and watching how the Ironclad turns out. Excited it will make up the building blocks for what comes later. Same with how RSI is scaling up their ship sizes with the work already done
If a person is that stupid so he bought a Polaris for solo play, He deserve it for being such an idiot. You buy this ship when you have an ORG not before.
@@Terran0va_PlaysYes you do, this isn't US-Based military. Both in British and other European militaries you don't salute or return a salute without a headwear or when carrying something since salute is often an act of pointing at the nation's emblem that is located on the soldier's beret, beanie or other headwear he may be wearing.
Just in case you missed it: the ship's crew is using uniforms following Star Trek's color scheme - yellow = engineering / security, red = command crew / blue = science. Also the internal damage part looks like what one expects in Star Trek (especially the engineering room scene). CIG really loves to give some homages to well known SciFi franchises. I guess that's one of the reasons why a lot of us feel like "coming home".
if you go far enough back, like before Arena Commander, Chris stated he wanted Star Citizen to pay homage to space sci-fi. We first had a towel to hang in our hangars to pay homage to Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. the number 42 is from Hitchhiker as well (Deep Thoughts answer to the meaning of life). The Carrack was supposed to be our Serenity from Firefly. I consider the Vaanduul to be our Klingons.
@@Karu617th Oh yes, that is true. Star Citizen is a love letter to SciFi in general. I'd say Star Trek, Star Wars and Star Gate are more obvious examples. There's a ton more in there, even Doctor Who, I think, but also Aliens, Starship Troopers, Warhammer 40k (I wouldn't be surprised to find chaos gods in the Warp, as entering Q-Points look exactly like entering Warp in WH40k). Game references exist too, like Mass Effect. I consider the Vanduul a homage to various races, Klingons included, but also Jaffa (Stargate) and Turians (Mass Effect). They appear to be your generic evil race, but even the few lines their leaders shared shows, they're NOT stupid grunts. Lore says they do trade with other races, but since they're so alien to mankind, the only meaningful interactions both species had so far, is combat. Anyways, I somehow feel compelled to defend the UEE, both in game (SQ42) as well as in Star Citizen and can't wait for that Nyx system 'cuz of that. 🙂
I have been so wildly impressed by the Capital ship battles. Every one of them feels different. Last night we only managed to get about 10 of us together for a phase 3, four of us manned the Polaris everyone else brought what they could. My buddy even tanked the Idris using a Crazy high emission Connie, allowing everyone else to focus on the turrets and engines. It took a while, but we got the kill, and got it in less time than a previous attempt that had 3 Polaris. Capital ship battle's play out like a proper MMO Raid fight, and I'm loving it.
@@Warsheep2k6 You'd be surprised how important it is to keep the Idris' facing the Connie so the Polaris can actually focus on ONE shield of the Idris to bring it down. I tried it yesterday and while we couldn't bring down the Idris due a mix of bugs and server issues, the tactic worked perfectly fine: the Idris was mostly facing me, while a random Polaris had an easy time to stay at the rear of the Idris, pounding away her shields.
@@Warsheep2k6 as solo, And we had the crew, so he and I worked together to keep us on a single face of the shields. It seems to be the difference between a quick battle Vs Hours long slugfest.
Have you seen other commercials? This was like 6/10 to me. They could've done a much better commercial job. It's not a bad video though, just not a good commercial.
If you look closer he was not walking through explosions. It kept flashing back between him walking through before the battle and the various stations whilst in the battle. He was on the bridge for the battle. Only walking through while the ship was landed
When phase 3 first dropped I flew into the back of the Idris and take it over. I called some Org mates to come and fill the seats. We 6 turret gunners, two Polaris & a few guys in Infernos taking down the next Idris. I was pilot for the Idris and it was an insane fight just to fly for.
It's very sad to think that the guy in this video, who has waited his entire adult life to fly finally his Polaris, won't live to see the Banu Merchantman completed.
Well, he had to wait a long time for the elevator to his hangar to arrive after a few hundred F-clicks and then he had to load the cargo boxes by himself one at a time and after waiting for the pilot seat sitting animation to finally complete, the server crashed.
Because it became such a iconic ship during 2 wars there should be lots of 𝐯𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐞𝐫 where there drop-ship part is replaced with other sections! -internal cargo carry versions, skyhook-lift version for transporting ground vehicles, Intelligence & communication version, missile boat version, gunboat, etc... and of course all of them still having the ability for stealth. . AND THEN there should be even bigger bird-shaped multi-crew Tevarin ships; A Tevarin equivalent to the Connie or Carrack would be fantastic!! Let alone a ship that could carry a Prowler & some Talons. (though the Talon's 'feathers' & wings should retract a lot more for storage) . I also think the red interior lighting of Tevarin ships should change to other colours when not in combat. If the lighting in the Prowler shifted to greens it would look like a forest and it would look amazing! :D …you could also have the alert & alarm sounds in their ships be the sounds of nature, bird sounds & animal grunts. (this would be to help make the Tevarin feel like a race and different to humans, not just generic bad-guys that's already been beaten)
Unfortunately, all the alien ships are pretty hard to develop because unlike most other companies CIG puts THAT MUCH effort and detail into making them unique and different to human designs. Just look at the Banu merchantman which is on hold at the moment because they quite literally don't have enough people with the skills required to finish the ship since the lead artist left for a director job at Ubislop :( If I recall from an old interview, the Banu defender took 3 days or something to model the interior just one part of the interior since its practically hand carved.
@@tetsatou2815 you'd want a couple of engineers to be putting out fires, changing equipment/relays etc. And depending on the intensity of the fight a medical officer will be needed.
Some shots have at least half the designated crew shown and then you add up the turret gunners, loading crew, torp gunner, captain, pilot and copilot. That would sum up to 40 crewmen - sure thing..... One thing that really bother me is the fact that no one - in a fing combat situation - is wearing any zero G equipment, let alone a helmet.....maaaaaan
I think based on the number of people shown in various rooms, that the Polaris is in fact designed for hot-bunking, and should support at least 27 souls (2x12 + captain + 2 prisoner).
@@guts2787 CIG has changed what it's said many times in the past, and in their own game they have specifically talked about hot-bunking. I believe we have every reason to believe that someday this will be taken into account for ships like this. What if you're fully crewed ship has to do a rescue operation and bring a group of people back to safety? This is the kind of role this ship was built for. Im sure again that CIG will consider these things and wisely set the support system to what it should be, sooner or later. For example they might start with it at a certain number and then improve it later.
Love the opening... they really captured what it was like to go from waiting for the ship to launch and now that its finally flyable we are all old men...
You can do that literally now make an appointment with your friends and log in at 2 in the morning the servers are basically empty and most idris spawn
You quite literally can right now. You don't need to buy one. Plenty of people that have them are more than willing to allow you to crew a turret, fighter etc.
@@InterstellarTaco There is no such thing as explosions, fires and panels coming loose in the ship requiring a repair team to repair components so far or rearming missiles and massive SQ42 grade space battles as the one presented. Nor having to manage engines and whatever. If you want that in a game, go play Void Crew, it released yesterday.
The criticisms are all valid of course, but my god the ships and trailers for them are good. There's a reason we're all still here despite the development black hole.
I'd imagine a lot of them are NPC crew not PC crew. I see it as the leaders of sections would be PCs (ie; pilot, chief engineer, medical chief) but the a lot of the crew running around would just be NPCs. -so like only 6-8 actual players.

@newhoboken9944 okay so why you think is this now important to tell me now? I only say that the Polaris is a really good design and I really think it's a great job. The game and everything else around SC is sometimes really difficult for now I know, but the Polaris is still good in my eyes.
@@QuotidianStupidity Yes it pretty much is. Both the polaris and Idris are in game and with the current event, a polaris can go against the idris and it looks pretty much like this minus engineering and the acting of the characters (which are players)
@@QuotidianStupidity What isn't in the game? The polaris is in I've loaded it with an ATLS I mult-crewed it against the Idris I've gained some grey hair since I bought it All that's similar to the game.
Summary, Captain who could not be bothered to be on shift during start of battle slowly walks to bridge while distracting working crewmembers from doing their jobs so that he may point his finger at the enemy
You need to find the right people. Had 2 Polari take on an Idriss last night. All a bunch of ransoms that didn’t know each other. One was fully crewed, one was half crewed. I was with the fully crewed ship but in a Fury as we didn’t know there’d be a second one there and ours was full.
I had a TON of fun this week using the Polaris in ship to ship combat during the Idris event. Just need to work on framerate and desync and get engineering in. Man its going to be a lot of fun.
We've come a long way since we were plugging 8-bit consoles into th HF (antenna) port of a tube TV and proceed to tune the frequency until the right channel is found to then play Donkey Kong 😂
Shame it doesn’t actually play this way. Torps usually detonate as soon as they leave the tube, damaging the Polaris itself. If they ever get NPCs to do the busywork they show in trailers it’d definitely be an amazingly immersive experience.
are you firing 10m away from your target? I've been Polarising on over 8 different servers since the ship hit the PU and never once had the torp blow up near me or affect the Polaris except when I was too close to the Idris.
@ Nope. Been happening around 4-6k away on average. Most of my org members have been reporting the same issues but I’m sure a lot of it is the typical server desync etc.
I waited too long for this ship from the first concept and then fell asleep on the first flight, getting on and off the ship is like the President Skroob in Spaceball when he ran saying that the ship was too big he risked finishing the film .But I have to say the design is fantastic, the Hangar area is wonderful
Now that you bought it, we are making it unusable by increasing rearm prices 1000% You should have done that BEFORE the sale. Indeed my eyes are open now about CIG, and I was an avid supporter.
Gotta point out the obvious deception with the turrets as shown. The most juice I ever saw using the s4 laser turrets was 14 shots before I had to recharge. The same turrets in the video were firing non-stop. Hopefully that's the intended way because 3 seconds of shooting and 3 seconds of charging on loop isn't very fun.
You guys sold this with "the hanger has the facilities to refuel repair and rearm a medium ship". I want this promised feature and is the sole reason i chose it over the Perseus
@@rooster1012 Hum no. There are laws out there and if a trailer is meant to be aired on TV, it better reflect the game in general or it's false advertisement, say hello to the judge. If this was on Steam, the false advertisement is also not allowed there and the game can be removed and refunded beyond 2 hours game time and above the 14 days grace period for a purchase in the EU. It's only because of the internet advertising that CIG allows themselves to make such "expectations vs reality" trailers.
No. But a) we don't have engineering now nor b) Maelstrom nor c) proper internal damage, so the only thing we have is a crew. It's required to have at least 10 - 12 people for best performance right now, add another 4 four engineering once that's a thing. A fully crewed Polaris has like 20 guys, including a pilot for that fighter. Since you also can add Furies to the cargo room, you may even bring more pilots. In the end, CIG always uses those commercials to give us hints for their final goals. So perhaps we gonna get all the tech required to recreate some of the stuff shown in the commercials? We've got that road ahead, but I doubt we gonna be there before 2026.
The torpedo gunner has to operate the console while standing on the ground floor, even in combat, so he can't see the captain's gesture and fire torpedoes like in the video. The turrets on the Polaris have a very low capacity, so you can't fire for as long as you can in the video. Completely over-hyped.
Not so hard, but actualy is not that far. Polaris, is not a ship needed in most of the game. For real, if you use it for daily life, you underused it. You dont realy need so much crew. But when is needed, is closer to that. The other day on phase 3, whit 3 full crewed polaris, the feeling was answensome. we had almost all the gameplay we see on the video. The only thing we didnt see, its the enginers stuff, and thats actualy something that will affect to the enginers who play repairing the ship along it, or just the coopilot controling the inside of the ship from his table.
Love the captain's age difference between concept and release.

The game and everything else around SC is sometimes really difficult for now I know, but the Polaris is still good in my eyes.
Missed opportunity to have the captain scream "Fire EVERYthing !!!!"
Commander Riker is the captain, and he did "engage" at the end!
Epic trailer! Been enjoying crewing the Polaris with friends for sure!
I love the nod to Star Trek with the colors on the bridge crew
THAT was a brilliant cinematic!
Even the torpedoes were able to hit the target
And they launched a couple at the same time, which is also not possible.
Imagine the game was like this ...
Love seeing the ATLS in the trailer, doing its role
Except realistically, it would be slamming the torpedoes back and forth into the walls and ceilings.
'Mom, can you buy me the MCRN Donnager?'
'We have the Donnager at home'
The Donnager at home:
Until we get the Javelin, that is definitely the Donnager
Our Polaris and its crew are ready to defend the verse 🫡🫡🫡
From small fighters.
Star citizen > feeding my kids
Haha!!!😂😂😂😂
Unrealistic, torps didn't explode in the bay on launch.
When I bought SC kickstarter back in 2012, bitcoin was 12$...
Advertising: Polaris 1-shots an Idris
Game: Polaris tickles the Idris's shields with a full torpedo barrage.
Cut the idris pdc off before and 4 torps is OS
Game: Polaris explodes from its own torpedos due to desync.
A dream comes true. I love the ship. I hope there will be uniforms at some point we can store in the crew hubs and people can use them.
You can make your own uniforms by buying bulk gear and put it in the crew storage lockers? 🤷🏻♂️
This is soo cool
You find no other game like this
This game isn't like this!
Sea of Thieves
@@QuotidianStupidity Yes it pretty much is. Both the polaris and Idris are in game and with the current event, a polaris can go against the idris and it looks pretty much like this minus engineering and the acting of the characters (which are players)
@@QuotidianStupidity What isn't in the game?
The polaris is in
I've loaded it with an ATLS
I mult-crewed it against the Idris
I've gained some grey hair since I bought it
All that's similar to the game.
@@jonathanpatry that is the bit I meant
That Polaris must have a tier 5 power plant. My power plant must have come from the bargain bin at Dumper's Depot.
Bro has like 30 engineers
Captains looking for his quarters
yep you were young when they announced it and now you are old finally getting to sit in it. @ 1:39
When I pledged for SC, my son was a toddler. Maybe he will play it before he gets his own kids.
Hey you guys forgot the captians quaters with the price hike.
1K for this ship, may as well buy a bunch of games worth 1K total. The value vs fun for this kind of ship is nonexistent.
Summary, Captain who could not be bothered to be on shift during start of battle slowly walks to bridge while distracting working crewmembers from doing their jobs so that he may point his finger at the enemy
Cant wait to be a Engineer/Medic on of of those! Oh wait.... no one actually wants crew on their ship :(
You need to find the right people. Had 2 Polari take on an Idriss last night. All a bunch of ransoms that didn’t know each other. One was fully crewed, one was half crewed. I was with the fully crewed ship but in a Fury as we didn’t know there’d be a second one there and ours was full.
Go to rp group or larger orgs usually you get a place on those ships
Hope for the social tools announced by cig during citcon or wait for npc’s.
you are always welcome , join MYRMIDONS , we looking for crue for Polaris / Idris etc
Amazing Comercial! Where is the show they promised for today?
let me guess the captains quarter is still unfinished
AND YOU GUYS RAISED THE PRICE AHAHAHAHA
It's still that way in 4.0, but don't worry, the Carrack has working cargo bay doors
This is why captain walking around instead of drinking whisky alone
Danke CIG das ihr uns dieses Spiel ermöglicht 🙏🏻 Wir teilen eure Vision und glauben an euch 🫡🤗
I had a TON of fun this week using the Polaris in ship to ship combat during the Idris event. Just need to work on framerate and desync and get engineering in. Man its going to be a lot of fun.
We've come a long way since we were plugging 8-bit consoles into th HF (antenna) port of a tube TV and proceed to tune the frequency until the right channel is found to then play Donkey Kong 😂
**gets hit by a bird while flying in atmo**
Repair bill: 1,024,826aUEC
All i could think while the engineering room was exploding was:
We bring to you the RSI Polaris: The last ship you'll ever serve on.
Shame it doesn’t actually play this way. Torps usually detonate as soon as they leave the tube, damaging the Polaris itself. If they ever get NPCs to do the busywork they show in trailers it’d definitely be an amazingly immersive experience.
are you firing 10m away from your target? I've been Polarising on over 8 different servers since the ship hit the PU and never once had the torp blow up near me or affect the Polaris except when I was too close to the Idris.
@ Nope. Been happening around 4-6k away on average. Most of my org members have been reporting the same issues but I’m sure a lot of it is the typical server desync etc.
was you shooting the guns at the same time ours only exploded when we shot them
Whoevers firing them isnt getting a good lock, they get shot by your own pdcs for being dumb fired missiles
manned turrets focus incoming missiles and torps, never launch at less than 3km
I waited too long for this ship from the first concept and then fell asleep on the first flight, getting on and off the ship is like the President Skroob in Spaceball when he ran saying that the ship was too big he risked finishing the film .But I have to say the design is fantastic, the Hangar area is wonderful
thanks for releasing BMM, finally, very excited about it!
Now that you bought it, we are making it unusable by increasing rearm prices 1000%
You should have done that BEFORE the sale. Indeed my eyes are open now about CIG, and I was an avid supporter.
Love the new ship! I am looking forward to it!
F YEAH! Much love to everyone at CIG as always!
Epic ship to say the least.. Picked mine up today... Friendly Polaris incoming!
Just so you know, if CIG permanently shuts down all servers in February (for example), you won't be able to get your money back lol
Gotta point out the obvious deception with the turrets as shown. The most juice I ever saw using the s4 laser turrets was 14 shots before I had to recharge. The same turrets in the video were firing non-stop. Hopefully that's the intended way because 3 seconds of shooting and 3 seconds of charging on loop isn't very fun.
Skill issue you need to put power to weapons
@@adrianhartanto159 14 shots is literally full power to weapons. Nice to see you haven't even tried it yourself before deciding to comment.
Try to change weapons...Attritions go Brrrrr
My favorite ship commercial by far
this is proly one of the best adds yall have done chefs kiss
Great cut scene...in game experience is completely different.
The size 10 torpedoes making through a Idris PDCs is so misleading.
Nah we did it last night. Need to take the PDCs offline first.
@@ruzhyox or misdirect them with fighters/missiles. Its very doable.
@@AlexeiX1rattler spam!
Sounds like a skill issue.
You could fire them Point blank so Idris Pdc didnt have time to shoot it. It still need a lot of Torps tho
You guys sold this with "the hanger has the facilities to refuel repair and rearm a medium ship". I want this promised feature and is the sole reason i chose it over the Perseus
The perfect example of the classic "expectation vs. reality". The experience is nothing like this.
Which is literally every video game trailer ever made.
have you done stanton 3 in a group with one?
@@rooster1012 Hum no. There are laws out there and if a trailer is meant to be aired on TV, it better reflect the game in general or it's false advertisement, say hello to the judge. If this was on Steam, the false advertisement is also not allowed there and the game can be removed and refunded beyond 2 hours game time and above the 14 days grace period for a purchase in the EU. It's only because of the internet advertising that CIG allows themselves to make such "expectations vs reality" trailers.
No.
But a) we don't have engineering now nor b) Maelstrom nor c) proper internal damage, so the only thing we have is a crew. It's required to have at least 10 - 12 people for best performance right now, add another 4 four engineering once that's a thing. A fully crewed Polaris has like 20 guys, including a pilot for that fighter. Since you also can add Furies to the cargo room, you may even bring more pilots.
In the end, CIG always uses those commercials to give us hints for their final goals. So perhaps we gonna get all the tech required to recreate some of the stuff shown in the commercials? We've got that road ahead, but I doubt we gonna be there before 2026.
@@Doomguy-777 WoW ads never show gameplay, only cinematics. Many games do that. is this a brand new law or something?
I just gave yall money toward the Merchantman please release soon :) i want to set up my trade business with hull-c drivers bringing me cargo
Ah, just like in the game, the captain does absolutely nothing from their chair. Truly your most realistic commercial yet.
The torpedo gunner has to operate the console while standing on the ground floor, even in combat, so he can't see the captain's gesture and fire torpedoes like in the video.
The turrets on the Polaris have a very low capacity, so you can't fire for as long as you can in the video.
Completely over-hyped.
This is multicrew
someone needs a nappy
just beautiful
What I would like to witness is filling it with as many fury’s as possible and in battle release them like a swarm lol
If only the game was like that...
A man can dream
Not so hard, but actualy is not that far.
Polaris, is not a ship needed in most of the game. For real, if you use it for daily life, you underused it. You dont realy need so much crew.
But when is needed, is closer to that. The other day on phase 3, whit 3 full crewed polaris, the feeling was answensome. we had almost all the gameplay we see on the video. The only thing we didnt see, its the enginers stuff, and thats actualy something that will affect to the enginers who play repairing the ship along it, or just the coopilot controling the inside of the ship from his table.
Star Wars Imperial Style Sound Alerts? WE need it ingame too!!! DO IT!
