Oh, good tip! But still a bit of a maze... :P

With this ship I had one of the most memorable moments I had in game so far. I was part of a cargo clean up crew for ERTs, and a Starfarer had cargo we wanted but we couldn't open the bay doors from outside. So I had to look for some sort of crew entrance - I was very unfamiliar with the ship - found one, got access to the inside, had to find my way to the cargo bay which I couldn't open from the inside either, then looked for the cockpit to try to open the doors from there. There was a dead pilot corpse on the chair, had to take him out, sat on the chair and opened all ships doors - which worked even in the ship soft death state - then head back to get the cargo with my buddy. It was an awesome Star Citizen truly unique moment!

Future feature for the ship. They already have the vents at the front and you'll be able to replace the nosegun on the civ version with an additional vent. Eventually the idea is that the Starfairer will be able to sub atmo into gas giants and other hydrogen sources to source and refine their own hydrogen. Quantum on the other hand you'd have to swap with a refinery ship.

What a huge ship

I thought of some ways to make refuelling a player safer: -For the client to be refuelled, they'll need to lower shields and turn off engines (as in the Starfarer wont be able to refuel you if you don't do those things). It's important to note that the refueler wont have to lower its shields. It's just a one way thing. -I didn't really see where the 2 back turrets were, but they should both be in a perfect position to shoot at the client in case he decides to go A-wire. The fact that you need turrets to be active will also encourage multi-crew gameplay. -Definitely make those turrets able to "move" around the ship (like put them on rails or something) to increase their covering area. -Just give dummy thick shields and powerplants to the thing! -Maybe add a second refuelling probe.

Where the Vulcan likely would be a more limited range support craft (something like one of the U.S. Carrier-based refueling aircraft - probably inspired by the old S-3 Viking).

Within Stanton this game loop is not as useful but perhaps when Pyro domes out the refueling game loop will be better. As I own the Starfarer I also find it sluggish and I have used it for both refueling other players and trading cargo. Though mostly I refuel those within my own Organization.

I love this ship! The interior, once you get used to it, is actually amazing - you have vertical traversal options everywhere, and can get to what you need to quickly if you know what you're doing. The 'engine room' you found is the placeholder for the quantanium refinery. You missed a really important aspect to the pilot size 4 turrets - unlike gimbals, they can swing in a almost hemispherical range, 90 degrees left and right and most of the way up and down too. Using manual gimbal control, this gives the pilot a huge engagement zone, and makes it a lot easier to use in combat. I definitely consider the Gemini the penultimate version of the starfarer. Its not for everybody, but I fell in love with it. refueling needs tweaks, most especially being able to refuel itself. The KC-135 it was inspired by was designed with that feature from the get go. In CIGs defense, they wanted to do that but apparently ran into some sort of technical block. Can't wait to see where this ships gameplay goes as resource and engineering gameplay come on line.

This can leave a starfarer defenseless in a solo pilot situation, neatly sidestepped if you have manual gimbal control.

Of course there's a bunch that will jump you but supporting those types normally pays off and the last one that tried to take me out or pay ransom fought me for 26 minutes before one of them rammed me.

Better aerodynamic performance with it? xD

This thing needs an interior revamp. Its so damn confusing to get around.

Yeah...

Rats. I'd been saving my credits and bought the Constellation Phoenix instead of the Starfarer, because I disliked the bland metal interior. If I'd known it had all that orange, I'd have grabbed THIS instead.

Star citizen, always focusing on what can be instead of building what already exists lol. Game will never exist in the state that people hope it to be because they will keep expanding scope. Excellent video though.

The refuelling gameplay *could be* great! But needs some tweaks...

Worst design for a SC ship interior hands down. Looks like a fps set, not a space faring ship. External its hella ugly too. I also think a refueler should be controlled from a boom at the front. What if you are re fueling a ship that is BINGO on fuel. The ship cant move to you.

It does feel like an FPS level, yeah...

Couldn't think of anything worse than having to rely on other players to travel the verse.... This is /fail /copium Ship is such a dogs balls design. Jump seats? Why? Beds look ridiculous and would be bunks anyway. Horrendous interior of maze like frustration. Absolutely pointless working on a fuel transfer UI before Pyro even in. Must have been for Squadron 42 Thank god they reworking the interior

I'm with you. Having to rely on players for such immediate basics as travel is cool in theory, but will, IMO, be a mistake in game design. Imagine if you could only buy food and water from player space food trucks. :)

I think the idea is sound. The execution needs tweaking... I think there will be ways to traverse the verse without the Starfarer, but some ships might not have the required range to do so.

@@Farrister maybe you’re right. Perhaps any ship can plot a route to just about anywhere, but some shortcuts will require player based refueling. So in effect you are buying time from players.

This ship is UGLY and OLD but I think someday it will be one of the most comfortable, welcoming sights when the entire playspace isn't limited to a measly 3 AU system like Stanton

Seems like a lot of wasted space on this bad boy.
