Very much appreciated! Admittedly it's not the first video editing I've done, but I'd like to think I set a new bar for myself 🙂. There will be more to come!
Wow, hey, thanks so much for coming by and for featuring on your reacts! Just got caught up on it today. You absolutely have permission to show future videos, I'd love to have the feedback!
This content and title and editing style made me think you were a much bigger channel. Didn’t realize this was your first outing till I saw the video list
Normally I find "let me know in the comments" type lines really off-putting, but the way you led into it with the "you are the variable" bit really made it feel like you're opening and interested in discussion. Your content seems super genuine and is really informative. Keep it up! Hope to see you in the verse sometime
OK this is one of the most incredible SC videos I've ever seen. The amount of work put into this is staggering. And the amount of data broken down in easy to understand, visually pleasing slides, graphics, and graphs is absolutely amazing. Thank you! I will be using this video as an always open tab for reference when putting together new builds.
@@UniversityofStanton I would love to see other components if there are differences. Breakdowns on QD’s effective range etc. honestly just ways to understand how ship components work together to find out what is best for a given player
@@UniversityofStanton It would be lovely to learn about mission structure, flight mechanics, generally taking things that are currently scattered or unorganized and putting them in a nice easy to digest video.
Watched this video and assumed it was from a content creator I'd previously missed. Very polished. Then I saw the comments indicating this is from a first-time contributor. There are many creators who've been around for some time and don't do nearly this well. Well done.
Thank you! I've done some editing before, but never really committed to running a channel. I'm pretty mindblown that my first one for this channel blew up like this!
It's awesome to see more people entering the Star Citizen creator space. And with the level of what this video is you'll grow FAST. Awesome first video and i'll be back for whatever else you are going to do!
Amazing video, could do with in-depth demo of each kind could be on order. So we can see Ballistic Cannons in action and compare them with example fights, same with the rest. Would offer 5 videos atleast? - surely. I would also like to see more in the shields, resistance comparisons etc? even side by side QT drives
Great video. Would be good if you could put up a video of some build suggestions for popular ships based on these new stats. Maybe getting a balance of ballistics and energy to get the most value.
Greetings from Hawaii. I've been waiting a while to see when the numbers would start to matter and an education in such things would be helpful. I've enjoyed sitting with you professor. Good presentation, use of tools/ materials and pace of the lecture.. The music and voice, made focusing easy. 👍 and U.O.S pledge. Thank you for sharing professor 🪐 PS salty Mike reacts.. is how I found you. Please consider reaching out to him,.. sharing knowledge empowers everyone, as does thoughtful reflections...
As someone who's been watching RUclips for years, I think there's only piece of advice I think I can offer. Math the quality of your thumbnail to the quality of your videos. The intro is short and sweet, good audio, good animation. The audio quality throughout the video is top notch, the volume of the background music doesn't eclipse the content. You've done so much right in your first video that o genuinely believe the area to focus on improvement is the thumbnail. Top notch content mate.
That’s a crazy good video. Better than any out there right now explaining this new patch. If you could dive deeper in individual ships that would be cool too.
Very informative and straight to the point. Amazing video. Was shocked to see it's your first one too! Hope to see more vids like this, keep up the awesome work!
Fantastic video! The best available for the subject. They should put this in the launcher for all players to see. Looking forward to seeing your channel grow
I haven't tried the Santokyai repeaters yet, but the Singe tachyon cannons on the Banu Defender are really good right now. They basically turned them into mini railguns that you have to charge to fire similar to the Ion's size 7. They fire super fast projectiles with a very high alpha damage but a low fire rate thus low DPS like a laser version of the Sledge 3. They definitely hit hard and kill quickly but take a bit of practice to use.
Personally on a ship like the Corsair I enjoy a full Gatling ballistics loadout as I hit hard and fast and don't linger for too long. My friend flies an inferno and he is usually my support ship and that size 7 Gatling is no joke either
I came to relies that dps on full ballistic with my harbinger definatly dropped on this update which lead my to remember shields were suppose to nerf damage a lil before but now ballistics doesnt reduce shields, so im now doing on any ship i play on doing a hybrid laser/ballistics build to reduce shields and then full dps the hull. Feels like damage went up from before when i did this.
in what little testing we did with a friend, a Scorpius with x4 Size 3 Quarreler / Omnisky Laser cannons & a Turret equipped with x4 Singe-3 Cannons was DEADLY. If your gunner is half decent and knows how to aim, we were consistently taking out targets bigger than us, maneuvering around them easily and taking out other fighters, mediums & more quite easily. Even in PvP we did great, having consistent damage being applied to the enemy is key and we did it - it was a blast to fly that thing. I also find myself using recently a Corsair with x4 AD5Bs and x2 Size 4 OmniSky cannons and for turrets im trying out the NBD Repeaters and swapping between them or Omnisky cannons - both seem to work, depending on what you want. Less more powerful shots or More shots to pepper the enemy, damage is similar and ammo speed is the same. I only wish the Turrets on the Corsair could take Singe 3s so we can test it out. Next thing we will be testing is possibly a Hammer Head with Only Singes, see how it stacks up LoL
I like the sound of this! Testing your way through things is the only way to see how it really holds up. I'm glad to hear about the Scorpius especially, last I heard the turret on that was locked forward.
Great video, good summary of the information without being mired in excessive detail - concise and well presented with the visuals too! Thank you - sub'd!
You know, i've done some editing before but never gone hard into trying to create a channel for a purpose. I was expecting this to take a long time and a lot of videos...I did not expect the first one to pop off like this 😳
Great video! And for a first wow that is really good. I've been trying to figure out what weapons to put onto my ships, may end up going mixed ballistic and laser eventually but I'm hesitant on ballistic since once you're out of ammo, you're out of ammo. Laser weapons at least won't ever run out. It will be interesting to see where the weapon meta leads, and maybe we'll get a shield meta when they differentiate shields since right now they all are exactly the same.
Thanks for mentioning tachyons. They looked brilliant on paper, but didn't know if they were viable. Think I'll carry a tractor beam next time I'm MRT'ing and hot swap some tachyons on the F7A and give it a try.
For a first Video that is really great, top quality on paar if not better then some big content creaters. One small thing, i would turn the music down a tiny bit it because your voice was about the same level.
Whatever planning, research, set up, pipeline processes, editing considerations, testing etc that you must have done while working on this video.. you're doing it right, and you should definitely keep it up. Well done!
Great video So all in all: Laser weapons do more damage per shot but theyr power is divided by all laser weapons on the ship (ammo capacity) and ballistics do almost half the damage to shields(or hull) but the dmg through the shield stays So the overall performance would be a mix of ballistics and laser weapons on a ship I guess. Given the fact that you can’t just fly away anymore without risking heavy damage to your ship I guess ballistics are better against light/medium and lasers@/balistic mix vs everything else. Since I own an inferno and where farming ert bountys with the s7 monster I quite grew on ballistics.
Great video! I dunno why CIG has kept the 50% ballistic protection flat across the board still when they could just lower ballistic damage by that ammo. Something I think is worth noting is the better energy efficiency means you don't necessarily need to commit full power to weapons as often, and with the change of shields getting resistance when they are given power. Erkul just says "X capacitor resistance multiplier" which I don't really know what that means, to be fair.
I have to re-learn so much... was offline (health-wise) for almost a year, maybe logged in twice. But this video is absolutely helpful! And I like your statement on "don't discuss the weapons". I never used distortion until making a mistake while equipping a Vanguard. Ever since, i love them sooo much! It has to fit your play-style. Hence I use a few ships, all different, agreeing with my daily form.
Glad to hear it was helpful! Feel free to join our discord, our training program is almost refactored for 3.23 and we're happy to help answer your questions and get you started on the right path!
I am so glad the Singe is a good weapon now, my favorite ship is the baby defender and I noticed it one-shotting NPC Vanguards and I was like “Wot?” So I guess it’s good to know how they function
Amazing video! Only suggestion is to turn down the music volume after the opening scene. At about 3:30min it was becoming a distraction. But otherwise great video!
Whoa; this is an amazing video for a first (or 50th!) try. Also, you have 4.5k views and 511 (now 512) ;) subscribers. HOOOLY crap that's an impressive conversion rate!
Thank you! My mind is kind of blown 🤯. I put this out fully expecting I'd need to get 10, 20, or so videos done before I even began to see some traction. Got blessed by the algorithm I guess, and everyone seems to like it!
Possibly! Convergence settings do exist, but the game automatically converges your guns to your target's range, and I don't believe there's a way to disable that.
@@UniversityofStanton I set this in my keybind.xml file so that I can control convergance range via a slider (on my left hand joystick) You're saying this is not in effect once you've TARGETED a ship? Only for untargeted weapons fire?
Dude for a first video the editing and quality is on par (if not better) than mainstream SC youtubers! You got my sub, keep up the great work!
Very much appreciated! Admittedly it's not the first video editing I've done, but I'd like to think I set a new bar for myself 🙂. There will be more to come!
@@UniversityofStanton Thats awesome! Excited to see what you have planned
@@UniversityofStanton keep it up brother this bumps!
What the f, first video!?! I expected a whole library to be there, now I will have to wait 😭
I agree. The quality, the data. It all holds up and is refreshingly awesome!
Seriously top notch video, great job. Best guide I have seen in SC in a long time, right to the point but not telling players what to do...perfect.

deer here. wow durgan, you got my sub, awesome video without fluff and still beautifully edited.
So much info here. Saving this video, it'll take me a few watches to absorb this.
It's awesome to see more people entering the Star Citizen creator space. And with the level of what this video is you'll grow FAST. Awesome first video and i'll be back for whatever else you are going to do!
this has been the most informative and easy to understand video i have found about 3.23 weapon changes
How is this so good for being your first video? Dude you’re gonna be killing it in no time!
Quality feels like official SC content.
oh hey das me!
Good fight and good video! Solid production, hope to see your channel go places!
Came here from Salt Mike's Channel, and already love this video.
Found you because Saltemike recommended your channel. Good stuff 👍🏻
Came over from SaltEMike. Thanks for the class!
Amazing video, could do with in-depth demo of each kind could be on order.
So we can see Ballistic Cannons in action and compare them with example fights, same with the rest.
Would offer 5 videos atleast? - surely. I would also like to see more in the shields, resistance comparisons etc? even side by side QT drives
this is such an awesome video!!! I like how you don't just say "the meta is X". i appreciate that you actually explain all the options
Great video. Would be good if you could put up a video of some build suggestions for popular ships based on these new stats. Maybe getting a balance of ballistics and energy to get the most value.
