Yeah it can get faster, i was showing them all off without any sort of upgrades though. With upgrades they would all be a lot faster.

The colossus should be a mobile base, since it's not as fast or maneuverable as the other exocraft, it should have a couple of exclusive tech modules like refiners, resource scanners, environmental protection (like the minotaur), maybe some other things, but it would definitely make it more competitive with the other exos, give it a reason to actually be used

The Minotaur goes in the water also, with no need for oxygen when inside. It can sometimes be a challenge to get back onto dry land, but it walks or jetpacks just fine.

My idea for these would be to add additional weaponry to the minotaur (like missiles, rail guns, etc.) Would be cool to fight ships in the mech. Colossus should be a mobile base like everyone is saying. You should be able to get in the back and walk around inside too. The motorcycle needs to be even faster. The hover car need to be multiplayer carry capable. The offroad car should get a warthog type gun that a buddy can ride in and shoot from.

The roamer is pretty fast on low gravity worlds, you can actually fly there. Pretty handy and fun.

Love the pilgrim. Indispensible for ancient bones hunts, chasing down resources like storm crystals, and pretty much anything too far to walk but too short to fly. When targeting an item it will also display the distance until arrival. Also, you can catch serious air with no damage. Jumping between two colliding planets is a real gas.

I personally use the Pilgrim the most because of its speed and agility, but I have to admit that I use the Nomad more and more (and of course especially on planet with a lot of water pockets) and it might become my go to. But the Minotaur is of course my choice on harsh planets, and the ones filled with mountains, I found it slow at first but the jetpack refill quite instantly so it's not so slow after all! The good thing with the Minotaur is that you don't even have to go out of it to gather storm crystals for example, really handy! I never use the Colossus (nor the Roamer) but it looks cool in a base :D I just discovered this channel and really like it, tons of good stuff to watch, thanks!

My favorite has to be the minotaur. There's something so cool about calling it down from orbit and stomping around smashing things. Feels like a jeager yknow?

I find for hunting radiant crystals and inverted mirrors, the Nomad, Pilgrim and Roamer all really come out to shine, you can quicklyc lose the distance between the crystals safely and efficiently, mine them and quickly leave before sentinels get angry. In the case of inverted mirrors, you'll always anger them, and evading them is just easier in a faster exocraft. Set the radiant crystals in whatever inventory has more space and it'll deposit them where-ever they are already stacked and your good to go. Very fast and efficient nanite farming.

The Minotaur works really well under water actually. You can search ocean bottoms easily with it. I usually use it over the Nautilon.

I use the minotaur for all my underwater stuff too. The AI on it is just so handy whenever you go into battle with sentinels, or the whispering egg nexus missions

I like things that change shape a lot (interceptor/sentinel and solar ships are my favs too), so if the colossus would have an option to deploy and enable you to get access to some freighter/base functionality would be cool. Thing of deploying a mining drill to mine resources even while away for example. Also while deployed it having a an interior and option to install a teleporter would be lit.

Жыл бұрын

I can test out mine when i record this weekend and see, but I haven’t seen anyone else saying the same thing.

The only tech that takes advantage of the supercharger slots is the ones with visible stats. If you want a better mining laser, plug the advanced mining laser upgrade into the supercharger, not the regular laser module since it has no stats for example. Typically upgrades except for the starship that mostly has stats for almost everything

I have to commend based on personal observations. normal exocraft enviromental protections do not deplete, and therefore don't need to be recharged either. But what makes the minotaur's better than the others is that, besides it is being a 4-in-one, it actually is a 5-in-one, additionally offering underwater support. In the other exocrafts, while you can be underwater indefinite, it only lasts while you don't exit the vehicle. If you exit and return, your breath continues to deplete as normal. The minotaur on the other hand, once you return to it from a swim, you replenish your oxygen upon your re-entry.

Question Does anyone have a problem every time i use a exocraft i start to see a black mist all around me and also around looks like its raining black small squares and is kinda of annoying

Is there still no throttle/ speed control? I remember exocrafts being a pain to drive, especially in VR, since you just had two speeds ...fast and stop

Can any of the exos go over water?

Can't the Minotaur be used underwater as well? I would like if Hello Games would add an upgrade for the exocraft. Make a ram scoop. So as we drive and destroy stuff we get some of the value of the destroyed object back.

Be careful using the minotaur underwater because it has a crush depth and there are deep areas that will trap your minotaur.

The camera and tank controls have never been in synch with each other, so movement required constant stopping and adjusting the camera.

Unless it was changed during the 4.0 update, and wasn't listed on the patch notes, the Icarus Fuel System exocraft recharger only applies to the Minotaur.

my problem with the excrafts is that they're too expensive to really make good use of in the early game, but in the mid-late game i have more than enough storage in my exosuit, my multitool can mine anything in milliseconds and can kill anything instantly and my ship has autochargers and only uses 1-2% per launch. if i want shorter ranged travel, i just melee boost everywhere which is far faster than any exocraft and longer ranged travel i just get in my ship. there's also not enough on planet surfaces to warrant using them, all the points of interest aside from portals hold very little value in the late game and there's not enough variety of terrains and biomes on each planet to make exploring for the sake of exploring worth it. the only exocraft i make any use of is the minotaur, and that's only as a combat bot when fighting lots of sentinels, but it's mostly there to draw aggro and doesn't do most of the damage. i wish there was more use for exocrafts because they're super cool, but individual planets just don't have enough interesting content to make exploring them for ages worth it

Sometimes ill go out of my way to find the biggest ramps I can to jump on the low grav worlds.

IMHO the Minotaur is the only one worth having. The jump jets give good travel speed and mobility and it kills hostile stuff. Since the last big update I have more storage space than I know what to do with, and the lack of a scanning visor thing means if I'm gathering stuff I spend too much time getting in and out of vehicles fot them to be worthwhile. Using them for Sentinels isn't that helpful since the Sentinels never seem to stop coming. It's far easier to run away or dig a long tunnel to hide in. I sometimes use the motorcycle as a runabout to get from my base to my mines, but it's hardly necessary. The sub is handy because it's a sub, but the only reason to go in the water is to collect the materials I need to build a water base. I have no use for a water base so I tend to skip the whole thing. IMHO the motorcycle needs a speed bump, the sub needs to allow you to go deeper than you could otherwise (not that deep water is common at all), and the Colossus needs to be a mobile base with refining and cooking capability. It would be cool if the Colossus could park, then expand into a large room with built in tech, kind of like an RV. Final thought is that the hovercraft would be great if it was combined with the sub so you could switch between modes and have a dedicated amphibious diver and surface scout. That would be cool for water world's.
