I'm personally looking forward to the Hull B. The ability to land fully loaded but carrying way more cargo than the Hull A feels like the perfect balance for me
As configured in the concept now, the B would need some pretty long landing gear to land loaded. I wonder if the might just make the B cargo grids a larger version of the A so cargo is loaded on either side of the fuselage instead of on top and bottom too
@@yous2244 they probably haven't, they're likely working on them simultaneously, those who worked on A are probably now working on B, but C was being developed separately as it requires very different tech to get it to work like the new loading/cargo area on space stations.

13:30 This is one of CIG's MAJOR problems. They do something before they actually think it through. Nothing makes this more apparent than the Co-pilot. Currently the Co-pilot cant so much as even monitor the ship's state with coupled and landing gear. So in reality, what the Captain SHOULD be able to do... is remote commerce and logistics. They SHOULD be able to look at prices, availability and actually BUY the cargo before you even get there. Currently, however, they just sit there pretending to be self important.
sitting there pretending to be self important is literally what SC is all about... beautiful graphics, not much to do beyond just existing and feeling like a cool space person
It's a bit of a surreal moment seeing the Hull C in game after all these years of concept art day dreaming. I cannot wait to get into the verse and hit the trading lanes
IIRC that is the intended plan. The Hull series isn't supposed to be able to fly in atmosphere while extended, which is that the MPUV-Cargo is for. Hull series is the equivalent of container ships IRL. They move stupid amounts of cargo from port to port, then leave it to small trucks to move the cargo from port to destination. Though either way, even if they can fly in atmosphere, it's useless to do so. They can't land with the cargo spindles extended, so atmos flight would only be to/from a home hanger planetside.
Been playing SC for a couple years now and I'm still just in awe of their attention to detail in their ships. But oh my god..that top profile on the screen. Looking like Dr Evils rocket
Hearing the excitement of Ollie first seeing his Hull C, and describing it in terms starting from compact to rather impressive, gets bigger, fairly narrow but quite long, with real special sauce right down the middle that make it expand and unfold.... phew... Not even Bezos's "Penis" spaceship made me blush as much :)
Space loading would be a great solo gameplay loop. I envision space loaders with high tech pallet jacks zooming around the station with cargo getting paid uec to load/unload the cargo. This concept could help bring the stations to life.
so happy to finally see this ship in the verse, and can't wait to see what sorta crazy antics people come up with for it. The devs really outdid themselves again on this one. My one and only real question about it though is did nobody on the dev team stop to question the very phallic shape of the Hull C in the little menu window of the dashboard? Or did they notice it, and leave it as is for the memes, considering the fact the ship grows longer?
When the cargo is being loaded it would be so cool to have little drones flying from the station to fill up the cargo space on the ship! Something like what @draakdeon mentioned elsewhere in the comments
Btw, if you're going to do a special tour of the Hull-C, or any ship, it's easier for viewers to get the scale of the ship if your camera is in third person view so we have a person for comparison.
The cargo loading zones should have multiple tether or docking hard points for collection/drop off IMO. The zones coulkd either be accessible by elevators (but can't spawn ships there, need assigned a loading bay), or they're like little self contained industrial sections. The box to hover in looks crap. Filling a super large ship could take 20 minutes at that rate, unless you can pay extra for more loaders to speed it alone, perhaps being able log out/in while it takes places, or do something else in the mean time at least would be cool.
One thing I noticed is when in quantum flight. If you walk over the bridge connecting the two halves when it is extended. There is a spot where you do not register as being on the ship and you get yeeted out into deep space
I’ve had this problem on elevators in both the Reclaimer and C2. The problem is that if you rage quit, when you try loading back in the game doesn’t know where to place your character. It doesn’t know if it should load you into the elevator or into deep space so then you just end up with an infinite loading screen…
For the "cargo box" in sapace solution (if they want to go this route) create a "parking overlay" view mode you can toggle where it will show said box in view. Like a green and black mono type deal hud, or part of the hud. and allow an companion interface display on one of the in ship screens that shows your ship relative to the kardinal directions of the cargo box you are approaching with a little blink indicator on the directions if you meet the criteria for being "parked" in the cargo zone. Mayhaps even allowing you to "focus" on said display and use it as a mini game like thing to preform precise manures with some buttons on the side of the display terminating relative velocity if you are in said mode and close enough to the mark to do so.
I wish there were planetside structures where the Hull C could dock and drop off or pick up cargo - it’d be cool to have SRV assist in leaving atmo quicker when it’s fully loaded
Definitely should be loading towers at major cities or industrial sites. Kind of like the towers for zeppelins in the 30s. Could be balanced by requiring a tow ship to bring the loaded cargo ship back to space. The tower itself could also have a tractor turret to hold the ship in place while loading.
I hope they will stay true to the plan and not have large ships with such bulk able to land in atmosphere. Rather have orbital ferries that will transfer from orbit to planet for a fee. Can even be player controlled.
the Hull C when its closed up looks super rad. Like if you could make custom ships, you could totally turn the Hull C into a smugglers ship, like remove the ability to extend it like that, tighten up the joints and close it up and you could turn that ship into a crazy awesome blockade runner. Like for real, this ship better be super fast when you're closed up, cause all that engine with no cargo space, there is no way this ship is NOT fast.
I ordered me an Acer Predator, and I am looking forward so much to playing this game!! Never seen anything like it and your commenting voice is badass!
You can barely catch it in the video at 24:43, but the first time you loaded up, you got 4609 out of 4608. Others have reported this issue, and if you see that, they won't load up the ship with cargo.
What a fiasco this ship has been, it still does not undock properly. You can work around it by storing a smaller ship on a pad, getting your Hull C out, then flying to it with the small ship and EVAing into it. Starting to make some money on it but lost millions initially. Cargo can cost millions and it is woefully armed to defend itself and extremely slow out of QT.
as a misc fangirl, it's cool even if it is just a trader. what i think is really cool, is it's almost designed to be attacked by pirates, which is good for the emergent gameplay we know and love. the rear doors, the mid doors, i imagine you could potentially "cut" the forward part off the cargo spindle with concentrated power if you wanted, as well as the spindle acting as a choke point - which would encourage going around to via eva maybe? well designed for a game tbh
I've been watching Star Citizens video for years (because I have no desire to pay to be a beta tester), and one of the interesting point for me was this notion of being able to become a space privateer. Now that Starfield is out though, that itch has been scratched. Especially since it's not forced multiplayer (which I typically dislike in a game, preferring a solo immersive experience). Also looking at the features both games provide, you can't help but see similarities. Honestly though, the fact that in Starfield you get to create your own ship and have more control over your gaming experience, that is what to me, puts it above Star Citizen, though I understand that people who play Star Citizens are likely looking for a different experience than what solo players like me want. To each their own.
so I havent watched the video yet but.. the title got me thinking.. they add a massive ship, but still havent fixed and launched the game. They are still SO FAR from being ready to launch.. its absolutely disgusting
This is awesome been looking forward to this ship significantly - BUT that blue box is horrendous, illogical and view obstructing. Its also quite unpleasant on the eyes.. >_> here's my idea - why not like a parking with nose touch on a soft physical extension thingie and floating parking lights signaling the area dimensions isntead. Like those space station runways no one is using ?? - then full halt - approve loading - 10s of drones bringing out the cargo slowly for the visuals - reflex covered cargo extension nose touch thingie retracts when done and off you can go. Also the immediate "you have 10 mins to pickup your crap" seems very very demanding and therefore feels rushed - and not to mention the immediate vehicle impounding after loading... like what if im afk cause i have to wait that long, it should be possible to be parked for a bit after loading. a 2:00 minute countdown before i have to start moving perhaps? Also on that note - when diving down into cities or being in front of parking areas - if theres no immediate danger cause a ship is spawning in the bay - then why not use an unrisky warning for a bit before the impounding countdown happens. my point being, you have to immediately pull up and leave the area youve dived down into/parked in front of. and it might get you to crash instead of safely navigating away from said sudden danger area. and a short note on the extending of the cargo holding areas .. it looks so awesome yes, but why are they so limited ? the sheer amount of goods is very large .. so we certainly dont need more, but if you used the leftover surrounding space you could add 50% more cargo easily without making the area it occupies larger. so why in a lean/long cross configuration? The lower cross beam could easily be distributed across the sides towards the top AND you'd be able to land with the ship near outposts on flat areas AND it wouldnt mess up og over saturate the already impressive load capabilities.. theres prob very few flat and large enough places to land this in an unfolded state, agreed - but still how about for maneuvering near a space station - it'd make it easier to fly without hitting something i bet. The question really is - why is it extending so far if if could be more compressed and hold the same cargo amount? ^^ just my thoughts.
Cannot wait to see my Hull-E :) Hull-C is tiny....even against a Hull-D. Back in the day the jump of hauling capacity started being crazy from C to D and absolutely crazy again from C or D to E.
olli the thing you thought was escape pod at first, must be locker for EVA suit, after all it is docking collar. ship is really nice, now just need same work on freelancer series at some point. then BMM and Perseus
the reason this doesn't make the caterpillar irrelevant is that it can't land planetside with cargo. These types of ships go between stations, and then if any of that bulk cargo needs to go down to the surface or some of it needs to go somewhere else, a caterpillar or something similar does that. And presumably there will be planets with no space stations in places like Pyro, which is where the caterpillar is probably going to shine.
I'm pretty sure that balcony you were on is not really a balcony. I think its for repair crew to access the outside of the ship whilst in space, so they can go on a spacewalk with magnetised boots to fix the shield projector from the outside of the ship whilst you're being chased by a squad of small fighters. Maybe there's several of you, and the fighters shoot off the other 3 repair crew, but you're the hero, successfully re-engaging the shield projector and being declared a hero by the princess on board the ship. Yes this was a Phantom Menace reference
Just seen your video, after my losses! Great ship, but couldn't get the loading to work , just stuck on 00:00 timer....2 hrs later still same. Then followed CIG advice on storing and calling cargo instead etc etc to no avail. To add insult to injury after filling it with 2.6M worth of cargo, and storing ship, i'm not even allowed to leave the station in my other ships without forfeiting my cargo. Something needs to be done about this! Waited a week and accepted my loss. Not a happy bunny.
Couple of questions.. how is it extended in atmosphere ? What's keeping the front up? Would there be regulations for extending a massive cargo vessel in atmosphere unless you're meant to be able to transfer or load it near surface without landing then somehow trust back up to orbit (seems.. silly) Would it be better to have full animation of support staff/craft loading such a cargo vessel when parked in the correct area rather than automagic animations? If so why do you need to go into the station at all? That super extendo section kinda looks interesting for packing in other characters that could all pop out quick then jump back in at least in space in the event of very quick piratical activities.
At one time I remember they were saying that they would have an app that would work like the stock market for in game investments. Did they ever do that? I'm still not playing yet. I've got to have more computer before I get in. Anyway the app was supposed to show you the "buy" and "sell" price at the different places that could do that. That way if you knew what you were doing you could buy at the cheap place and then move it across the (SC) universe and sell to the place paying highest, and you make .005 on the dollar...or whatever. THAT appealed to me instantly...but I haven't seen that it yet.
im personally a tad bit more excited for the hull b and e since i have become my org's designated cargo logistician since i own 2 hull c's and one of each other in the series and i can only imagine how big the D and E are going to be even compared to this behemoth, and for personal use i think the B is the perfect sweet spot, being able to carry so much more than the A and still being able to land while fully laden is going to be really nice for systems like pyro where you may not have the luxury of a safe station whenever you need one
There should be high privileged, high payout missions for salvaging ships within armistice zones. It would take a bunch of rep to earn them, and if the privilege was misused, it would be taken away.
or salvage missions where a pirate is likely to intercept you, you can have people escort you and they cam join from any server but their fee would be taken from your cut
32:10 now it only miss the advert panel on the side like on concept, and explore the ship on the ground to see aaaaal the cargo going everywhere ( and server dying)
Im wandering if those cargo pads can carry snub fighters, and act as a sort of guerilla carrier like how the Caterpiller can fit the Fury in its cargo bays. Cant wait to see its applications
You should've plummeted like a rock and crashed in an atomic fireball on Microtek when you flew down there fully loaded and not even in VTOL mode. I guess CIG hasn't got weight, gravity and thrust figured out yet.
This was one of the first ships I wanted many years ago... then I saw the Hull E!! Holy smokes that thing will be something else.. But this opening up is spectacular.... The interior on this ship has more detail than most games have period, It's like a level in itself. And it's so good to see Star Citizen finally at a point where it's playable again, here's to hoping things speed along better now SQ 42 is feature complete, it's been a long and very bumpy road.
The Captain seat should present a map so you can pinpoint where you wanna go and show cameras to the deposit and mechanicals so you can see whats going on, with schematics on how loaded the ship is
8:20 Those are Cryopods. Like you know, travel once the game will be completed, through systems will take days if not months, so you'll be forced to place yours peoples into cryosleep to travel for that long, to don't use too much food for nothing, and the crew will have to awake each theirs turns to ensure the flight is safe, and that's there is no alerts during the FTL. However you need an escort fleet, because you'll become quite useless once load with heavy cargos :D
I'm 100% sure the devs knew exactly what they were doing when they designed the shape of that ship.

To each their own.
so I havent watched the video yet but.. the title got me thinking.. they add a massive ship, but still havent fixed and launched the game. They are still SO FAR from being ready to launch.. its absolutely disgusting
This is awesome been looking forward to this ship significantly - BUT that blue box is horrendous, illogical and view obstructing. Its also quite unpleasant on the eyes.. >_> here's my idea - why not like a parking with nose touch on a soft physical extension thingie and floating parking lights signaling the area dimensions isntead. Like those space station runways no one is using ?? - then full halt - approve loading - 10s of drones bringing out the cargo slowly for the visuals - reflex covered cargo extension nose touch thingie retracts when done and off you can go.
Also the immediate "you have 10 mins to pickup your crap" seems very very demanding and therefore feels rushed - and not to mention the immediate vehicle impounding after loading... like what if im afk cause i have to wait that long, it should be possible to be parked for a bit after loading. a 2:00 minute countdown before i have to start moving perhaps? Also on that note - when diving down into cities or being in front of parking areas - if theres no immediate danger cause a ship is spawning in the bay - then why not use an unrisky warning for a bit before the impounding countdown happens. my point being, you have to immediately pull up and leave the area youve dived down into/parked in front of. and it might get you to crash instead of safely navigating away from said sudden danger area. and a short note on the extending of the cargo holding areas .. it looks so awesome yes, but why are they so limited ? the sheer amount of goods is very large .. so we certainly dont need more, but if you used the leftover surrounding space you could add 50% more cargo easily without making the area it occupies larger. so why in a lean/long cross configuration? The lower cross beam could easily be distributed across the sides towards the top AND you'd be able to land with the ship near outposts on flat areas AND it wouldnt mess up og over saturate the already impressive load capabilities.. theres prob very few flat and large enough places to land this in an unfolded state, agreed - but still how about for maneuvering near a space station - it'd make it easier to fly without hitting something i bet. The question really is - why is it extending so far if if could be more compressed and hold the same cargo amount? ^^ just my thoughts.
Cannot wait to see my Hull-E :) Hull-C is tiny....even against a Hull-D. Back in the day the jump of hauling capacity started being crazy from C to D and absolutely crazy again from C or D to E.
Liked the foreshadowing "Feels like flying something big"
It's videos like this that make me yearn for the day you can paint and customize your ships.
I can't wait to see what they have in store. And please add the bloopers like that at the end again. it was very fun to watch. Love your vids man. o7
Hull-C was stillborn. It's in game, but completely broken and pointless.
olli the thing you thought was escape pod at first, must be locker for EVA suit, after all it is docking collar. ship is really nice, now just need same work on freelancer series at some point. then BMM and Perseus
the reason this doesn't make the caterpillar irrelevant is that it can't land planetside with cargo. These types of ships go between stations, and then if any of that bulk cargo needs to go down to the surface or some of it needs to go somewhere else, a caterpillar or something similar does that. And presumably there will be planets with no space stations in places like Pyro, which is where the caterpillar is probably going to shine.
Caterpillar is still cool AF no matter what. Detachable command pod, exchangeable modules
I'm pretty sure that balcony you were on is not really a balcony. I think its for repair crew to access the outside of the ship whilst in space, so they can go on a spacewalk with magnetised boots to fix the shield projector from the outside of the ship whilst you're being chased by a squad of small fighters. Maybe there's several of you, and the fighters shoot off the other 3 repair crew, but you're the hero, successfully re-engaging the shield projector and being declared a hero by the princess on board the ship.
Yes this was a Phantom Menace reference
I have a ten year CD that I just cashed out, I bought it two years after Star Citizen went into development. >.o
new star citizen player here ( started 2 weeks ago ) the ship looks wild af. great attention to detail imo.
Welcome to the verse :)
loving game?
Just seen your video, after my losses! Great ship, but couldn't get the loading to work , just stuck on 00:00 timer....2 hrs later still same. Then followed CIG advice on storing and calling cargo instead etc etc to no avail. To add insult to injury after filling it with 2.6M worth of cargo, and storing ship, i'm not even allowed to leave the station in my other ships without forfeiting my cargo. Something needs to be done about this! Waited a week and accepted my loss. Not a happy bunny.
"Sir, it looks like a big""Johnson prepare the torpedoes"
In settings there is a mouse acceleration option if you ever want to be a bit more cinimatic while you're just looking around.
Couple of questions.. how is it extended in atmosphere ? What's keeping the front up?
Would there be regulations for extending a massive cargo vessel in atmosphere unless you're meant to be able to transfer or load it near surface without landing then somehow trust back up to orbit (seems.. silly)
Would it be better to have full animation of support staff/craft loading such a cargo vessel when parked in the correct area rather than automagic animations? If so why do you need to go into the station at all?
That super extendo section kinda looks interesting for packing in other characters that could all pop out quick then jump back in at least in space in the event of very quick piratical activities.
4:33 they must know how that looks on radar right? i love it lol
At one time I remember they were saying that they would have an app that would work like the stock market for in game investments. Did they ever do that? I'm still not playing yet. I've got to have more computer before I get in. Anyway the app was supposed to show you the "buy" and "sell" price at the different places that could do that. That way if you knew what you were doing you could buy at the cheap place and then move it across the (SC) universe and sell to the place paying highest, and you make .005 on the dollar...or whatever. THAT appealed to me instantly...but I haven't seen that it yet.
the ledder thing at 11:11 also happens freeqeuntly on he retaliatior if you press run on the ledder up to the living quator.
im personally a tad bit more excited for the hull b and e since i have become my org's designated cargo logistician since i own 2 hull c's and one of each other in the series and i can only imagine how big the D and E are going to be even compared to this behemoth, and for personal use i think the B is the perfect sweet spot, being able to carry so much more than the A and still being able to land while fully laden is going to be really nice for systems like pyro where you may not have the luxury of a safe station whenever you need one
It's so impractical for a solo like me, but I expect I'll still fly it.
"oh my word that is quite the behind"
There should be high privileged, high payout missions for salvaging ships within armistice zones. It would take a bunch of rep to earn them, and if the privilege was misused, it would be taken away.
They just need NPC ships doing it.
or salvage missions where a pirate is likely to intercept you, you can have people escort you and they cam join from any server but their fee would be taken from your cut
32:10 now it only miss the advert panel on the side like on concept, and explore the ship on the ground to see aaaaal the cargo going everywhere ( and server dying)
Im wandering if those cargo pads can carry snub fighters, and act as a sort of guerilla carrier like how the Caterpiller can fit the Fury in its cargo bays. Cant wait to see its applications
You should've plummeted like a rock and crashed in an atomic fireball on Microtek when you flew down there fully loaded and not even in VTOL mode. I guess CIG hasn't got weight, gravity and thrust figured out yet.
You can copy/paste your custom keybinds from the Live folder to the PTU one to make it easy, instead of re-programming all of your keys!
1:39 “Oh my word! That is quite the behind!”
What you meant to say was, “Baby got back!”
I strive to be as excited as Olli is at literally every little thing lmao
This was one of the first ships I wanted many years ago... then I saw the Hull E!! Holy smokes that thing will be something else..
But this opening up is spectacular....
The interior on this ship has more detail than most games have period, It's like a level in itself.
And it's so good to see Star Citizen finally at a point where it's playable again, here's to hoping things speed along better now SQ 42 is feature complete, it's been a long and very bumpy road.
4.34 the ship outline made me chuckle like an immature kid.😂
11:25
My fellow mole users know the pain of taking the middle ladder and phasing through the ship.
''I've been waiting for this in star citizen for quite some time'' is the most ironic phrase ever
It's here! I've been waiting for your impression video on the Hull C! 😁 Hope you are doing well man.
I love your excitement and joy while playing and discovering 😅
Damit fold your cargo platforms if they are empty before blasting through the atmosphere I can't believe that they are still not ripped off
😂 great content, especially the ending ... thx. 😅
With cargo loading it would be cool if they use a little tractorbeam ships stransporting the boxes
The hull c has multiple tractor beam stations on board for this
The Captain seat should present a map so you can pinpoint where you wanna go and show cameras to the deposit and mechanicals so you can see whats going on, with schematics on how loaded the ship is
23:05 is it your controls that messed up, or is it you never closing a door and venting your ship?
that UI has been there for a while
Props to CIG, I have to admit they did an amazing job on the Hull C
@28:46 You never have to ask if you're in with that big thing.
Yeah the Hull C was worth the wait. Looks awesome. It also makes sense that you can't land it when you have the cargo racks out.
The dude surveys the ship as if he had entered the game for the first time.
Glad you like the ship! That'll be $3,500.00 USD please! 😂
I've had that UI for months in the states. Might have even been as far back as 3.17. I was surprised you did not.
same bro, had literally no fucking clue what he was going on about
8:20 Those are Cryopods. Like you know, travel once the game will be completed, through systems will take days if not months, so you'll be forced to place yours peoples into cryosleep to travel for that long, to don't use too much food for nothing, and the crew will have to awake each theirs turns to ensure the flight is safe, and that's there is no alerts during the FTL.
However you need an escort fleet, because you'll become quite useless once load with heavy cargos :D
