My reviews are of the ship STOCK, when you purchase the ship on the store or in game. This means no upgrades were applied, nor do I typically discuss upgrades.
This video showcases the MISC Freelancer Max, a heavy duty cargo hauling machine. Does this ship put out what you put in? Lets find out.
Let me know what you think in the comments below!
Thanks for watching, hope you enjoyed!

One of my favorite older ships. I picked this over the new Zeus CL and the Spirit C-1. It's such a retro ship that really encompasses that "Space Trucker" vibe to the fullest.

@MysteicVoltronus nah, that would be the Drake Cutter but I can see where you're coming from. I've driven big rigs for some years and of all the ships, the MAX is spot on. Especially the cargo bay. Looks just like a 53' trailer!!
I have so many hours exploring Stanton in the Max. It held a ROC and still had space for cargo. The gimbled guns used to be a huge plus. Now gimbling a gun in the future will not lose a weapon size. It needs a gold pass terribly however master mode needs to come first. I still have the freelancer in my buy backs :)
The guns on the sides were suppose to be fully manned turrets per that really old release video and their obvious design. I think it could be a 4 man ship. Lose the spoiler on top and that middle section. Merge the middle section with the living area to expand it to feel less claustrophobic with bigger kitchen area, a table, a few chairs, weapon/tool racks. The side turrets should be pilot control, but have the option to release them to co-pilot and remote gunner seat. 4th seat up front could be the Engineering terminal. Remove the seat for that if you need to. Manned turret should be where the airlock is now. And I think they can make the front exit door double as an exist and airlock since the ladder already moves out of the way when closed.
Seems like no one is pointing out the freelancer is also cool because it looks like Serenity from Firefly!!
Great review dude! The OG Cargo ship!
The beginning with the stone in the forground was pretty good, it really flies like one XD
The max is also noteworthy for it's supersized landing gear, very large pads compared to all other freelancers making landings on uneven terrain a breeze

Wider, Longer, More travel? Do they sit higher?
I like the reviews and honest opinion. Myself would also have the turret as a copilot controled 1 and leave the docking ring in the save little cargo space. Loose the 2 back cockpit seats and make the living larger, and the tracktorbeam would also be cool. But i still love the max. But a redo would deff make this great ship even better and more in line with the ships at the moment. Keep the videos comming. 🤙💪
Thank you for the review I have been out of the game for some time due older computer not able to handle the updates. New computer with 512 GB only waiting to get a 8+ Terabyte SSD. I have ten ships, the original 3 Freelancers all bought as pledges back when we had the massive hanger setup.

Check out my newest review on this ship for the newest update!
if you went down to two or even 1 crew, that's -2 seats on the bridge and opens up even more room for more facilities
I like the ability to have more crew rather than "crew space" and only 2 crew accommodations which in a game is effectively wasted space. If the side guns (and rear turret) could be controlled remotely by extra crew that would be really neat- better to increase utility than remove it as a fix.
Evenlease is terrified of space toilets

But this ship is better than the Cuttlas Black...because the Cuttlass has no toilet. :/
great vid! im seeing something diferent, the turret entrance side things that are always hanging out, i dont see them anymore, have they fix this?
Love the video's! I am very curious on how mastermode will affect all the ships. Also armour will be another thing that will influence the ships as bigger weapons will be able to penetrate armou and lower won't be able to go though all kinds of armour, dps won't be king any more at least not in the way it is now. (Hence bigger weapons will eventually be more important to a certain point). I really do like the Max: but I dislike the cockpit view. I do hope they will fix the turrets so that they fold into the roof instead of poking out the lancers will have an increased cargo hold that way
It can even fit an Ursa. I love my Max. But you did oversee that the rear turret has been already reworked in 3.22 and its struts got removed. You can see it in your video as well. Thus the turret is no longer blocking the entry.

Absolutely, happy those are gone and with 3.23 the annoying hover text becomes a small less intrusive hovering F. Hopefully allowing for less misclicks and entering the turret
out of all the FL ships, the MAX is definitely my preferred variant... due to the ability to carry 2 Cyclones or 1 Ursa 🙂 handles like a brick, and the wing on the top of all the FL ships is something I wish was removed as it obstructs the turret gunner's view... though I would say the turret with the janky entry/exit would be better off being a remote turret, and I'd even go as far as to say while the turret is active the top wing should split and retract to allow more coverage only deploying when the turret isn't active, and it needs a button for the aft ramp like the Cutlass and other ships have... I think 4 crew is definitely 1 too many, 3 would be more a logical number... pilot, turret gunner, engineer... however the 4th would probably be for navigation and scientific roles but in a way that turret's main purpose is to cover your tail as you're running away, more like a tail gunner in a bomber it's not bad as a multirole ship despite being more of a light cargo ship, and it definitely needs weapon and armour racks, and onboard storage similar to the under/over bed storage of some of the other ships which are in some ways less equipped in cargo capacity thanks for another awesome review @EvenLease 🙂 and i look forward to the next one 🙂
you gave it 9/10 because it has a toilet...which kills you? :) I love this ship. 120 scu or you can take a URSA or two ROCs with you. two medium shields and 4 x size3 guns to the front. You can do so many gameloops with this ship (and I love the orange paintjob)
It's bugged atm , don't know sinds when. When i got a roc parked in the cargo , flying around surfaces , minerals don't show up when scanning.... so can not go mining with it unless they fix it...
People complain about the more expensive fighters being simply better than the others, but nobody complains about the other ships for the most part. The freelancer max is hands down just better than the base and dur

Not with current hull strength issue, which has been years. Maybe the latest 3.23 physicalization means it is getting that number typed in.
3 crew minimum for the future: 1 pilot, 1 turret gunner, and 1 engineer. So you could have three, but you would still take the same space with beds. Might as well make an extra bed for a co-pilot or gunman.

@jarnoal269 maybe 10%of the time nothing, the other time depends on the varient. DUR, hopefully exploring. MAX/standard, loading cargo or ROC mining. Even if it was just a 2-person ship, the other person would just be sitting in the turret doing nothing most the time anyway.
This my real money ship along with a ROC.
Well.. No.. You've got a pilot, turret gunner, engineer, and a load master. They could also be used a guest accommodations if you're transporting people. Sure this dips heavily into RP/Immersion, but still.
A fine medium cargo hauler, and the other ship I own (other is the 300i; under-rated ship IMO).
What do you think when will they upgrade its health ? Like an estimated time, i am preparing to buy this ship from the pledge store.

3.23 has given at least the base variant the minor upgrade of physicalized components and a change to 3 shields (probably a hidden nerf if Cutlass gets 2 in similar adjustments, plus shields are all weaker after Master Modes pass). So would expect it to be fixed for 3.23 release. Soon(tm).
Soke of the best ship reviewes and gameplay that ive seen on this game. Deserves more views

oh no way the thing kinda looks like one of the ships you get in freelancer

I know a lot of people love the max, but honestly... I dont. I always fall on my Taurus in most situations. It only cost about a mil more ingame than a Max.

The risk with Taurus has always been that when they say multicrew they actually mean it. The first engineering minigame is in 3.32 and it is painful "fuse replacing", kind of like patching planks in sea of thieves but more jank. Freelancer was always pitched as the biggest solo friendly ship and that influenced a lot of choices. But of course Taurus has had a lot of years of being one of the best ships, so may continue. Both OG ships should get a major rework some day.
Great video but it was more then 10 minutes.
