First Capital Ship review! I like to keep my reviews to a smaller window of time but with these bigger ships that is pretty difficult. Thank you for watching! You are all AWESOME!
You can still do solo bounty missions now that you can add a gladius or decent fighter in the hangar. Hangar Bay allows for FPS missions solo or crew. On top of hauling. You can do it all solo buddy.
Awesome video! Appreciate you going room by room explaining whats in there. The Polaris looks awesome, can't until IAE to fly it with my brother and some buddies.
@@EvenLease44 Welcome, ive contacted support to see if they'll allow me to Buyback my Polaris, they're often very good, yet not the end of the world, fingers crossed. Kudos
If you're enough people you can hold an squadron of 5-6 Arrow fighters in the landing bay, facing each otrher in 2 rows left and right of the ship. Are short distance fighters but are a perfect complement to that capital ship.
Just discovered your channel, your content is amazing! The first camera setting of you slowly walking to the Polaris told me I was about to enjoy the next 33 minutes ! The review is straight to the point and very informative, I learned a few thing even though this is like the 5th review of this ship I watched lol. I'll recommend your channel to my friends. Cheers and thank you for the great content :)
Nice Preview, rather than Review, since the Polaris has not officially been released yet. Good job! 😊 Had to EDIT: Fantastic use of day/night shots and landed configuration.
Amazing review. I agree with everything you said, I think it was rushed out to get it done before the end of the year. It’s a shame, but it’s what the market will bear. I just hope the Polaris keeps getting updates and doesn’t become another ship that CIG puts on their backlog
Looking at how they did with the PDC systems. I really wish they could implement an early stage of AI blades to man those turrets because I mean we don't need an exact simulation of every AI crew. The AI just controls the turret and can fire those at command.
@@EvenLease44 Right now they are pretty balanced as the PDC is pretty easy to overwhelm with multiple targets at once. So the Polaris, my thought would be follow a torpedo with 4 S3 missiles from the pilot (since they are faster) so the PDC of the target is busy with those first.
I love the polaris and what it means for the game. I personally will probably not get to be in one too often but I'm still super happy it's here. This feels like a real step forward for what we all wanted from the game
I love large spaces in ships, but not necessarily on bridge. The bridge is SOOO big for the few seats it has... It could be 3 times smaller, and still have enough space to solve for NPC collision problems (which is the reason corridors and spaces are so wide).
I think they might be adding less stuff and make them more "bland" because they anticipate the decoration mode to allow you to make them more personalized and interesting. The one they showed for base building.
I was really hoping this may be the first ship to usher in a shipboard magazine that could be fed with ammo crates, to restock its supplies of ballistic ammo and missiles. Both of them run dry way too fast for something that should be designed for long-term deployment. Which is difficult to manage if the ship cannot resupply itself from onboard storage.
I can't wait to collect a crew and roam the system in this beauty! Also seeing your channel is getting some major traction mate! Seeing it grow from 4K to 12K now is amazing! Keep up the good work mate!
The polaris is a game changer. And despite the role it has as a group only ship. A good amount of people, like myself, will be using this as a flying base, with a couple of your best ships and just trekking it out in the verse, on your own terms
Great video and preview of the Polaris. You have a nice pace when showing us the ships. Awesome! The Polaris looks great and will be a nice addition to the game. For orgs doing bounty, mercenary or pirating this ship will be great. Will be cool to see it flying in the verse. But like you said and many have pointed out already, the interior looks a bit bland except for engine room. That looks good but everywhere else lacks the final last touches. I guess and you pointed it out too, when we get the captains quarters we might see a polish all around before release.
I think with the addition of weapon groups you could be able atleast on capital ships to have a weapons officer who picks targets and assigns a weapons group to persecute them, yeah you should still have to manually aim them and it would be a bit less accurate than manned turrets but I feel like having all turrets just AI would be bad for fairness but having every single gun independently manned all the time is a bit impractical and unrealistic
Can't wait for more ships like this to come out, things that can do a little of everything while leaning into one role. Odyssy and BMM, kind of the Carrack, fall into this category.
the pdc can track fighters now too and its really good, no lite or medium fighter can last against 7 pdc, but the pdc also make it harder to attack the idris now too, you have to get right up close and dumbfire or get something to confuse the the pdc.
Great video, thanks. I feel like the less decorated interior is better since it's more suited for people to customise it themselves. I never liked that you buy a brand new reclaimer and the interior looks like it's been used for centuries
It's going to be really fun avoiding pirate polarises...polarisi? Patrolling/hunting in Pyro while I'm in my Zeus ES doing some stealthy roc mining or traveling in my StarLancer Max with cargo. Those going solo will need to be extra cautious and i love it.
I'd agree, the interior is the only real drawback of this ship, but for me, I'd take 2 points off the score for that. I just watched your Carrack review, and that ship has so much character and even if it has a smaller hangar, many unfinished features, less firepower and HP and shields, I'd pick it over the Polaris for everything except for combat or high risk cargo runs. And, if I wanted a capital ship experience, the Kraken would be by choice. Nothing IMO will beat Carrier gameplay in Star Citizen.
It is an amazing looking ship, going to be great for small to medium-sized groups, and "fleet actions". I'm glad I didn't go for it, way too big for one person to manage. Will be fun to see how/if people fill and decorate the inside with stuff.
I wish the captains chair was the only one with access to self destruct. Wouldn't be much functionality. But I feel like blowing up your own ship should be deliberate and the captain should have to push the button. Pie in the sky idea but eventually when hacking comes in the same UI could be used for the captain to have a password that needs to be input first as well for self destruct.
If you want to play Solo in a Starlancer just get the Polaris, no harder imo, and if you understand the basics of CCU'ing, you can still make decent savings of $200+ quite easily. Ship for me are an indulgence, if your already an Imperator Subscriber, you already have a Polaris through the ''Imperator Test Flight'' Bonus. This ship will sell exceptionally well, and the IAE Paints will be a welcome addition, hope for something special. Obviously anyone who settles for a Polaris is looking for value for money, and its expected to see a substantial price rise come IAE, CIG did offer a $50 saving on an: ''Perseus to Polaris for $25'' so a saving of $50 at Invictus, so they'll want to claw that back, so its going easily rise by $50, yet $100 would be more realistic imo. Nice overview, im sure you could run a series on this beaut.Kudos PS: Who wants to start a ''POLARIS Club''?
I thought the medical bays had 'clean room' at the entrance, where you get sterilised, maybe they'll add them? I also want them to add being able to collect various rocks and plants and add them to the Polaris's garden...
Haha you do what I do and be like that room looks nice but I’m not off in because I feel the door will lock behind me and be stuck forever. 😂 great review.
I agree with your scores although I feel that the maneuverability is going to get tweaked after it comes out - imho, it handles far too well compared to other ships of similar size.
you gotta remember the Carrick is not a military ship it is an explorer ship so an explorer ship would have a very good medical Bay because it will be far from home. now even though the Polaris is a Corvette it is still a military ship now true the medical Bay could be a little larger so yeah I agree with that however features wise no it shouldn't have the same features that the characters it's not an explorer ship
I will note that the Polaris being faster than a Starlancer Max isn't necessarily that out of the realm of reasonability. Note, there's more than just size that factors into this kind of thing, there's thrust to mass ratio. Polaris clearly has a lot of mass, but clearly also has a LOT of thrust.
@EvenLease44 Yeah, and I imagine most combat ships should have greater thrust-mass ratios vs non combat ships of similar, or sometimes smaller size. I would say a fairer comparison of its speed and maneuvering would be vs a hammerhead, as the hammerhead is a larger ship than a starlancer max, but is also combat tuned. Crucially, it is also designed to screen fighters, so with its given role, it should have better speed and maneuvering than Polaris.
@EvenLease44 that's ok I don't think any of us really know, but we all know what you're talking about either way. I certainly don't judge! I was actually thinking it would be cool if you threw in the claim time for the ships as part of the review. Would only take a few seconds to put it on screen and would be a helpful little piece of information. I bet the Polaris had a hefty claim time! Keep up with the awesome work it's really nice to see your channel continue to grow!
The Polaris was built after the Battle of Vega to have two purposes: strong torpedoes that the Vanduul showed as a vulnerability and built around powerful engines to strike fast. So - I agree that its speed will remain competitive to many ships smaller than it.
One of the Polaris designers in Reddit explained that the Torpedo that's pushed forward to the launch tubes, comes out the bottom of the loader, pushed to the side, then forward to the tube. Which is why you see them come in from the exterior wall side through the windows in the launch tube.
750 nice got mine for 440 so doing ok but yeah. Only some s3 missiles for the pilot. So need friends who wanna work stations. The game has been solo is ok for so long it will be a painful switch for many of us
Sadly the version that was released as part of an event recently was bugged allowing a snub to take it out with a kamikaze run. Hopefully when it gets full release that will be fixed.
A pity this ship really needs a huge crew to operate properly. Yes, the interior feels lowly polished and desperately needs a drone operating room like the Carrack. I can't believe they actually did not add one in such an expensive ship.
I really only have like a handful of issues with thr Polaris. Ans half of them are pretty minor? Thr rest... need fixing. And im a Polaris Owner. 1.) Bespoke nose gun. (Minor) i a tually agree with the noseguns being ballistic! They help punch doen shields. BUT players should have the OPTION to swap them out for energy id they want. Just sayin.. 2.) The Flight Ready Button (MAJOR!) Is right in the middle of the MFD selection area right betwen two consoles... CIG DIX THIS NOW! 3.) Collision Damage Bug! (Minor) this will get fixed.. but its annoying to see a light fighter kamikaze into a Capital ship and not only survive but to see thr capital ship explode. Yeah nah. 4.) Currently only 1x type of s10 torp (minor) this will get fixed im sure, hence minor Bonus issues: -no paints. (Minor) this will get fixed soon too. Thr Carrack had thr same issue. Ugly as sin till you apply paint. -interior lighting (minor) you actually can change lighting in most areas but its not the same blues that the concept work gave us and i think thats throwing people off. -labeling. (Medium) this ship needs better labeling lile thr IDRIS.
The 12 size 2 missile turret in the back is a complete fail... it has a huge blind spot in the rear when those size 2 missiles are gone and even if it is armed people can easily evade them with decoy... they don't even need to break off from their attack run while counter the missile defense.
@@EvenLease44 It must be hard to balance those things. Some people like it very detailed, there are someone like me, and then there are people that likes minimalistic textures and details. I love how diverse the SC ships are, but most of the time you are stuck with a ship you like with some things that you don't like about them. If you are lucky you sometimes grow to love them, but most of the time you have to live with it.

Ship interior only feels empty in the way the Enterprise does. It's a disciplined kind of sparseness. I love it.
Awesome video! Appreciate you going room by room explaining whats in there. The Polaris looks awesome, can't until IAE to fly it with my brother and some buddies.
Fly it Now!
Flying this ship with people is such a blast. Thank you!
@@EvenLease44 Welcome, ive contacted support to see if they'll allow me to Buyback my Polaris, they're often very good, yet not the end of the world, fingers crossed. Kudos
If you're enough people you can hold an squadron of 5-6 Arrow fighters in the landing bay, facing each otrher in 2 rows left and right of the ship. Are short distance fighters but are a perfect complement to that capital ship.
It’s an amazing exploration capital ship too
It is… this thing can do quite a bit of everything.
Just discovered your channel, your content is amazing! The first camera setting of you slowly walking to the Polaris told me I was about to enjoy the next 33 minutes !
The review is straight to the point and very informative, I learned a few thing even though this is like the 5th review of this ship I watched lol. I'll recommend your channel to my friends.
Cheers and thank you for the great content :)
Thank you! Happy to hear!
The greatest SC Ship review channel. How didn't I find ya sooner!
Awesome videos, awesome livestreams, you're killing it dude!
Thank you! You’re awesome!
excellent review. Look at all the glass in the cockpit!! come on MISC that's how you do it. No dashboard that doubles as a second lounge here.
Haha! It would be cool if misc had a more open view out of the cockpit.
Oh yeah! 30 min. more or less review. My favourite series.
I didn’t even bother giving a time in the beginning as I didn’t know how long it would truly take! Hah. 😅
I subscribe to your off the grid series Qutatron. Sad to see that pushed off due to the bed log issues.
@@EvenLease44 I can't wait for 1 hour or less Kraken Rewiew
@@Trampus10-4 thank's, I need to wait for proper server meshing, because most problems right now caused by server performance.
Nice Preview, rather than Review, since the Polaris has not officially been released yet. Good job! 😊

Thank you!
Amazing review. I agree with everything you said, I think it was rushed out to get it done before the end of the year. It’s a shame, but it’s what the market will bear. I just hope the Polaris keeps getting updates and doesn’t become another ship that CIG puts on their backlog
Thank you! I hope so to, don’t want to see it left in this state for the next three years.
Looking at how they did with the PDC systems. I really wish they could implement an early stage of AI blades to man those turrets because I mean we don't need an exact simulation of every AI crew. The AI just controls the turret and can fire those at command.
On a positive note. I'm sure they are using the pdc as a way to test/tune blading
@itsdibbles yeah I think so too
I am in a couple of organizations but I am thinking of a solo player as not everyone has a group to play with
Agreed! That would be super nice, just have to balance it out so it’s not dead accurate.

I got to fly the Polaris and I loved it. I can't wait to get one in the PU. I'm definitely going to make it my main ship when I have the crew for it.
Great work on the vid as always! I love using this ship as a mobile base
Thank you! It’ll be a fantastic mobile base until base building arrives.
I love large spaces in ships, but not necessarily on bridge. The bridge is SOOO big for the few seats it has... It could be 3 times smaller, and still have enough space to solve for NPC collision problems (which is the reason corridors and spaces are so wide).
Was waiting for this! Gonna be a great watch
I really hope so! Thank you!
Waiting for this vid, appreciate the details you add
Thank you Stockpile!
thankyou for this review best one i have seen as you started from the bridge giving a much better idea for the complete layout
I think they might be adding less stuff and make them more "bland" because they anticipate the decoration mode to allow you to make them more personalized and interesting. The one they showed for base building.

Thank you! I appreciate that. The Polaris is absolutely a nice addition, and hopefully the start of many more capitals to come.
I'm gonna miss my harbinger loaner but I can't wait to play around with my new mobile base!
Appreciate the highlights of the PDS locations
Nice review! 30 min is perfect for ships this size!

That sure is a chonky boy, the landing gear animation looks super cool
Gonna try and get mine during IAE it’s just such a beautiful ship to fly around with friends
Very nice! Looking forward to using this in the PU
27:04
Thing I like about that terminal is you can F4 to get an external view.
Useful to see if the ship is in position for offloading or a drop.
Can't wait for more ships like this to come out, things that can do a little of everything while leaning into one role. Odyssy and BMM, kind of the Carrack, fall into this category.
very exciting time in SC with this ship coming out
the pdc can track fighters now too and its really good, no lite or medium fighter can last against 7 pdc, but the pdc also make it harder to attack the idris now too, you have to get right up close and dumbfire or get something to confuse the the pdc.
Huge ship. Pretty cool. Not really my thing, but glad there are players who are excited for it.
What a great review best friend. I can't wait to jump into my Polaris and remake "Down periscope" submarine movie 😂.
Thank you! It’s going to be a lot of fun!
Great video, thanks. I feel like the less decorated interior is better since it's more suited for people to customise it themselves. I never liked that you buy a brand new reclaimer and the interior looks like it's been used for centuries
Thank you! Yeah easier decorating by the owner and in a technical way it is a military corvette so I guess bland isn’t necessarily bad.
@@EvenLease44Yeah to be fair I can also understand the appeal of a pro artist dressing up the interior instead of trying to do it myself 😂
It's going to be really fun avoiding pirate polarises...polarisi? Patrolling/hunting in Pyro while I'm in my Zeus ES doing some stealthy roc mining or traveling in my StarLancer Max with cargo. Those going solo will need to be extra cautious and i love it.

Agreed it really is. And thank you!! 🥹
Huge ship, good stuff, getting hyped and when sales goes down then comes the famous nerf hammer ;)
Great review! Thanks!

Agreed, it'll be a very big struggle as a solo person - almost impossible depending on how components and fire truly work.
Seriously! Come on! Why not hot keys for a single Door? Ramp? Hangerbay? Not everything opening up is so stupid!
Been waiting on this one!

PS: Who wants to start a ''POLARIS Club''?
For solo, unlike the polaris, Starlancer has pilot controlled weapons, and much less ground to cover running between stations.
That ship shield and hull HP is bonkers man
It’s insane! I can see why the pilot has no guns lol
I thought the medical bays had 'clean room' at the entrance, where you get sterilised, maybe they'll add them?
I also want them to add being able to collect various rocks and plants and add them to the Polaris's garden...
The medical space definitely needs the Carrack treatment. Also the living and crew recreation spaces need to be brighter.

Agreed, these style ships will be tweaked for a long while till its just right.
Mobiglas remote door operation will be $40 on the pledge store.
I really want them to add spots to hang up posters or something I'd like to see that in some ships
Great tour :)
Such a fun ship for group play, especially with a crime stat trying to save Stanton lol
yeah I don't know about that intro song matching the ship or camera angles but overall nice review
Thanks for the feedback! Good to help improve :)

You couldn’t use the cargo beam likely because either it had no power pips in, or the ship not in SCM mode is my guess
I am just using it as a mobile base to launch the F8C😂
It’s perfect for that!
Concerning the cannons...... I have always pronounced it, "Omni-Sky". Am I way off or what? Love your content, sir!
Thank you! Im not 100% sure on the pronunciation I’ve just said it that way forever 😅😅

"This is a big one" I see what you did there xD
I wouldnt expect the speed to be nerfed too hard, it has always been touted as the fastest of all capitals
The Polaris was built after the Battle of Vega to have two purposes: strong torpedoes that the Vanduul showed as a vulnerability and built around powerful engines to strike fast. So - I agree that its speed will remain competitive to many ships smaller than it.

I'm so happy that they buffed the s6 guns they just didn't feel right when they doddid 1500 alpha damage 2400 is much better
750 nice got mine for 440 so doing ok but yeah. Only some s3 missiles for the pilot. So need friends who wanna work stations. The game has been solo is ok for so long it will be a painful switch for many of us
Sadly the version that was released as part of an event recently was bugged allowing a snub to take it out with a kamikaze run. Hopefully when it gets full release that will be fixed.
I’m sure this is something that’ll get fixed, probably when engineering is out sadly.
The main torpedo room needs a dedicated chair/operators station. It seems silly to fire size 10 torpedoes from such a small monitor.
A nice chair with some monitors would be nice.
i am so considering upgrading my carrack to polaris, when might it be in release we think ?
It’ll be available for purchase on RSI’s day of IAE.
A pity this ship really needs a huge crew to operate properly. Yes, the interior feels lowly polished and desperately needs a drone operating room like the Carrack. I can't believe they actually did not add one in such an expensive ship.
The Cap Ships have PDF but will they also have Chaff/Flairs? Or some type of Decoys?
Yes all three.
@@EvenLease44
Thank You. It was probably said in some documentation somewhere that I did not read.
I really only have like a handful of issues with thr Polaris. Ans half of them are pretty minor? Thr rest... need fixing. And im a Polaris Owner.

-labeling. (Medium) this ship needs better labeling lile thr IDRIS.
the polaris is supposed to be fast and nimble
atleast according to what cig was saying before
I’m curious about the hangar’s repair/resupply capabilities (in the future)
Same! That would be cool, the hangar pad used to also raise in early concepts so to bad that’s not a thing anymore.
I'm going to solo this ship. I'm not in a org but I'm going to have fun. Remember,its just a game.
Why release a ship when the turret HUDs aren't implemented?
What a monster of a ship
A true beast!!
the intro music is lit! who is it by?
NEFFEX - Manifest It (Instrumental)
this is amazing touring vehicle for vega system tho
I'll have to watch this later, I'm just tickled pink that your review is this long. ^^
Are the Size 6 guns energy or ballistic?
Ballistic.
The 12 size 2 missile turret in the back is a complete fail... it has a huge blind spot in the rear when those size 2 missiles are gone and even if it is armed people can easily evade them with decoy... they don't even need to break off from their attack run while counter the missile defense.
Yeah, I'd have preferred a second quad s3 remote turret instead.
No AI or NPC crew...need people to fire torpedoes. Also, released AI point defense weapons that wreck torpedoes with the Polaris release lol great.
CIG should hire you to do commercial videos for ships. Exceptional content, amazing quality, and always informative.
Thank you! That would be super cool.
The torpedos go behind the elevator a dev clariied that and some gamrs showed it
Whoohooo!!
It needs signage and more detail inside
Awesome video! o7
Thank you!
34min?! Ooooh cmon!
I guess I will sit through the entire review, ugh!
Muahahaha you MUST!
Imho it has a right amount of details. So much things in the game has too much nonsense details that just makes it noisy.
Understandable! It’s also a military corvette, those aren’t usually cluttered with crap if you think about it.
@@EvenLease44 It must be hard to balance those things. Some people like it very detailed, there are someone like me, and then there are people that likes minimalistic textures and details. I love how diverse the SC ships are, but most of the time you are stuck with a ship you like with some things that you don't like about them. If you are lucky you sometimes grow to love them, but most of the time you have to live with it.
The perfect starter solo ship
Oh sure sure. Can’t go wrong with that. 😂
Its is, i have one on two of my accounts, easier than the Starlancer for Cargo
😂
@@davewills148 How much can she haul?
that's a big ship :o
It’s truly a massive boat!
Ohhh yeah :)
Oh yes, 10 min or more ,we like it hehehe 07
Or more.. much much more.. :D o7
I wonder if the Polaris will keep the worst medical bay in the game.
More than likely it’s here to stay for awhile.
I wish all ship interiors felt empty. I hate the props that you can't interact with. I want enpty ships that you and your crew can fill and decorate.
If you had an option to either spawn decorated or clear would be cool.
Good you didn't try to do a 10 minute more or less review. That would have been quite a challange. XD
Yeah that would have been something! Haha
Oh not ship review. It's a new chapter capital ship review ok ok. Just watched the intro now. Let's see what we get into.
Hope you enjoy!
