Not sure if it can fit a ballista in the cargo bay, not that its not tall enough... its the clearance on the doors. No ballista or nova tonk :( Id love it if CIG proves me wrong though. And the cargo capacity should be 576 scu.
Now i am looking forward to taking out mine from the Hangar & going on a solo trade run. Its unreasonable, unsafe & very stupid. BUT i will make it work regardless!! :D
Main thing I’m excited about is seeing how much large ship design has evolved. If the Zeus is any indication of how efficient with space the design team has become, this is going to be great.
gotta remember that the Zeus is the first peak we get at the new and improved RSI design language. The Polaris is RSI, so we can in theory expect to see a very similar consideration for space, and design. JUST MAKE SURE THE CARGO RAMP CAN HOLD A SPARTAN... we dont need another "Ursa" incident...
Lock the doors to the hangar, vent to outer space. That's how you deal with undesirables. Would need CIG to implement it, but whatever. What also would help is a small remote turret on the inside.
Size of the Polaris always bafles me, its so damn much big. Love seeing it in the verse, and am always in awe whenever i manage to get close to it. And then you see that comparison chart of the Bengal being 3x the size and my brain just stops computing 😅
I think its Red's lovely English accent i love most about his videos- is it from London ? Also next Red you could do 'Most Anticipated Gameplay' as that connects with ships so much. Cheers English Gent !
My original thought is to use the hanger for a C8x + Scorpius for away missions, however if the Zeus MR fits, that would be one hell of a 'runabout' for the Polaris.
Polaris is exciting, but I'll never get one. I like small crews or solo. BUT should you ever need a cook for the messhall and allround engineer, I'll take a modest 1 scu of destilled spirits as payment. I'll even make sure to keep the brigs fed with stale bread and brackish water. Your Videos have reached another level bro! They feel more natural while still being informative, it's amazing! And well done everyone with the monitor, this game has a very unique player base! o7 my dude!
For defense against hostiles in the hanger you could simply lock those large doors to the interior so their only option would result in harming themselves, and hopefully before breaking in or hacking could take place you already tractor beamed out the garbage with a turret inside intended to assist ships with a little thruster damage or something lol.
I've been eyeing the BMM for a few years now, but with all this teased content for the Polaris, its making me wonder what my end goal big ship will be. I can't possibly dream of owning more than one cap ship, so it is a really hard choice.
I would expect earning a BMM in game to be very challenging. I imagine you would have to befriend a Banu clan and earn enough reputation before they’ll sell to you. And if their leader dies the Clan is effectively disbanded and the remaining survivors would start a new clan, reseting your rep. Polaris will likely also have some sort of reputation grind as well, but won’t reset if say the RSI Dealership owner dies.
I own 3 Cap ships with the BMM being one of them, the Polaris and the Orion on its own account. My Polaris will help protect them while they help me buy the Kraken and Pioneer in game.
Thx pal for an amazing insight to the Polaris. Im hearing a lot of chat about it recently and being sort of fairly new to SC videos like this one help me very much to understand why. The excitement of seeing (or possibly owning☆) such a vessel in the verse is most welcome. Cheers o7 (☆pending of course a very good lottery win) :)
This looks like it would be fun to go after with a taskforce of a light carrier, fighters (obviously), a corvette or three, and a missile boat or two. You might stand a chance of taking it down with that. You could hurt it with less, but I think a combined taskforce approach is the only real chance to blow it up. The new mission "Save Stanton" is will be very entertaining. If you plan on being a filling and repair station, you might want a Vulcan or a Starfarer Gemini. You can RRR with those without having them land a ship in your hangar or cargo bay.
I am a Perseus fan boy. I am of the opinion that guns are better than missiles / torpedoes. You can spoof and shoot down missiles, but not incoming high-calibre shells which will rip apart your hull. For carrying my ships (and others in my ORG), I picked up a Liberator. But then I see the Polaris grow. Not just in hangar size, but also weapons and capabilities. It could hit enemy ships with guns, torpedoes and launch 2 fighters to fight against other fighters or incoming torpedoes. And then we got CIWS!! So ... I now have 2 big Space Doritos :P
Lol. yeah ngl the only thing i was little dissapointed with is that tiny missle turret on the back. Oh and the not collapsing table in the mess, which I forgot to mention.
@Reds_Resort aye that is going to be great for a fleet too! This game is going to be unbeatable when we start getting DLC's. Haha... sometime in the next decade 😅
A Kraken w/ fighter wing, Polaris, two Hammerheads, two Perseus and a mixed wing of Vanguards would be quite the fleet for any org. Then throw in a Javelin or Idris. Man, I don't even know how many people you would need to man that fleet. Probably all 100 people on a server right now. Nah, that probably wouldn't be enough.
You heard the bespoke size 6 chin turret from a recent leak. The same leak mentions 2 quad size 4's on top, 2 quad size 3's on the sides, a quad size 3 to the rear, and a missile turret with 12 size 2 missiles. Assuming the leak is true, and I really hope it is, that seems like more than adequate firepower for a ship this size, do kinda hope they dont go with the size 6's being bespoke though. I like having options.
I would like to see you cover the HAMMERHEAD and it's future in the game as the POLARIS / Fighter Meta power creep makes it more and more irrelevant as an anti fighter platform.

you have got a fabulous sense of humor. Loved it
Hahahahaha this is the first video I have seen from you. You are officially my favorite commentator ever 😂 what an absolute crack up.
Appreciate that dude honestly. That's just enough ego points to inflate my head for the day. 😂
A Kraken for a grandmother is a pretty good deal these days. Grandmothers can’t even cook these days.
I heard Polaris will have 576 SCU storage capacity

It would be nice if the Perseus became a Cap ship in it's development. No hangar, etc, just capital components and up-gun the turrets.

Maybe an Origin 'Enterprise' look alike ship that is part warship and explorer. Laser beam defense turrets.
