I used to want the Hull C really badly because I want to specialize in trading. But then I went over the MM again and suddenly it clicked so to say. As the ship will more or less be my home in the verse the sacrifice in cargo capacity seem really negligible when you think of all the extras the MM has to offer over the Hull. When I realized this the choice became really easy. I see the Hull series as more of an asset to organisations and not as a ship that is meant to be an indiviual's focus if you know what I mean. I go for the MM and a Carrack. These two basically represent everything I'll ever need in the verse... besides upgrades... and lots of cash^^

thing is, in a fair comparison the BMM would be stacked up against the Hull D or even Hull E because the BMM is ~ 500 USD, thats more than twice of the price of the Hull c, 150 USD over the Hull D and 150USD under the Hull E and well.. compared to the Hull D the BMM overall is worse, it has 1/6 of the cargo capacity and the larger Hull D has most likely similar space for the crew compared to a BMM (its a over 200m long ship)

The biggest thing that bothers me about the Hull series is the huge retro thrusters located at the front of the ship. Just like riding a bike, you don't slam on the front break when all the weight is behind the point of pressure or you end up sideways and balled up in the street. The thrust reverses on the Hull series needs to be behind the center of mass at the back of the ship to prevent from breaking the whole ship in half under it own weight and momentum when trying to slow down.

Great video! I have a BMM/Defender, and don't ever plan on letting it go. However, I just wanted to point out that the Endeavor can hold 500 cargo in the Command Module, and the hangar bay can hold 4500 more (at half capacity, so potentially more?) "you’d be able to add roughly 4500 additional SCU of cargo to the ship if you used half of the available space in the Landing Bay (with the remaining space being used to enable a Cutlass to land/take-off with that cargo.)" MM can land on planet, so there's that advantage. Hull C can't. Endeavor's Command module can bring down 500 SCU at a time. I also like how much more functional capability the Endeavor has.

Something that I dont think was mentioned about the Merchantman in regards to how fast you can travel in a fleet - The Defender was said to have some kind of companion interaction with the BMM. Its sounding more and more like the Defenders are able to dock to it in order to piggyback on the BMM's faster quantum speed from its larger drive. The tail thing that hangs down under the ship when its in flight seems to hint that this may act as an attachment point.

Something many might forget is that the cargo hold the banu have, might also be used for rental shops inside. So the actually used cargo for the owner of the ship could be a lot less then you might think. Not sure how many rental shops you can have in the banu, but say if each shop has 600 storage units, your personal storage isn't that high to haul cargo. Hull-c is strictly cargo hauling while banu gives the owner more of an option what they want to do.

So in conclusion, IF one is ONLY into hauling and doesn't want the smaller crew size of the smaller hull series or bigger capacity of the larger, then Hull C is the right choice, otherwise the Merchantman is better in pretty much every aspect, which is better in every regard except a bit less cargo space.. but since it CAN land and source it's cargo from planetside locations where it's probably cheaper than stocking up from a station so the difference in how much they make from a single run might not be very different + however much you can make from the onboard market. And for both i find the "need to hire ai crew" argument a bit on the "ok.. but, economy is what the ships do." side, you already make the money to pay them just using the ship, and you likely don't need as many specialized, well trained and expensive NPCs as you would if you hired NPCs to crew a combat vessel where it's a matter of life or death, and there's no inherent income from just flying the ships. So generally for ships that just need everyday workers and which purpose is to make money, the "need to hire a crew" is less of an issue. And if you asked a friend, someone in ones org or just some bored strangers "hey, would you like to go on (unpaid/underpaid) adventures in my Hull-C" or "hey, would you like to go on (unpaid/underpaid) adventures in my Merchantman", guess what most people would pick.

With the amount of cargo a hull series can bring in one time, the station will maybe not be able to store much if there is multiple hull.

With as little as we know about the BMM, other than what's concrete about it, like its role and fluff, I wouldn't be surprised if it gets even bigger and can carry more cargo by the time we actually get our hands on it. I'm really not a fan of the Kraken being able to carry as much cargo as it, AND have landing pads, personally. I really hope it gets more than 1 remote turret, too, but the time it comes out. I'm very curious to see what size shield generator it gets, my money is on either two Large, or one Capital, since the Banu do like to have the best stuff. Regardless, I absolutely love the BMM, and I was lucky to buy mine when I did, since I got it the last time it was available before the price increase :)

I did find out something interesting when researching the BMM. it's 3584 cargo capacity was measured in Freight units and not SCU's like it's currently being listed as on the ship matrix. So when they actually make it, that number is either going to be greatly nerfed, or the ship is going to have to be upgraded to capital class in size in order to accommodate for carrying that much cargo. I'm hoping they end up making it bigger so it can be more of a competitor to the Privateer. Either way, it'll be interesting to see which way they end up going with it.

I really don't think that ships marketed and sold with the ability to land on planets should now need to hire another ship to aid with that. Is a HUGE slap in the face to backers, like myself, who have contributed significantly.

i went with a Hull B and can't wait until docking is implemented so they can be built. The shield tech will cause cargo to not be protected, as it will wrap around the ship armor and not the entire ship. Since the armor will not be in the middle section the cargo will be exposed.

Did you see the dev talk where they said that the hull c had to almost be tripled in size to make room for the physics grid? I can't wait until i can fly mine, i think this size increase will also mean that the price will increase

Aren't those cargo amounts not from before the cargo update? Updated values seem to be 1/4 of previous values (ones you mention in the video). Might want to check on that.

Not available yet. New Babbage in 3.10 is showing Avionic packages with 4 AI drives. Meaning you can have 4 AI gunners on a ship. But as for AI crew it’s not available yet or will be , probably for the next year. It’s probably going to be at least 4.0 until we see AI gunners. 5.0 until AI crew.

Late reply is late, but seeing as nobody replied, I'll explain as best I can. Star Citizen is currently in a pre-Alpha state. The game is by no means complete, or near completion for that matter. Yet what is there is playable if you have a game package. The gameplay systems are in flux, and in development, as CIG works on fleshing out each system or reworking them. A point of contention is that they sell ships for real money currently, which is how they continue to fund the game, as well as subscription flair and such, being as it is a crowdfunded game, not a game with a Publisher. (Though all ships will be able to be purchased ingame and outfitted appropriately using the ingame currency, they're not limited to cash only. But this will come at a later date.) Some ships can be purchased ingame, but with quarterly releases, all progress is wiped, save for what you've purchased with cash. You will always have the ships you bought from the store. The game is incredibly demanding to run, and buggy as all hell. If you play, it WILL crash, more times than other sometimes, depending on the current patch. But that is the nature of a pre-alpha. This alone causes many people to shy away from it, and I can't blame them for it, as it can be very frustrating. I myself am a backer, and keep up with the development, but rarely actually play, usually waiting for larger updates or bigger features to check out. If you're interested, feel free to keep up with the development yourself. But you don't HAVE to buy ships, I myself only have some smaller ones. And for the vast majority of players, smaller ships are all they will need, as in this game, turrets and things will need to be controlled by individual people, so big ships like the ones on this vid will REQUIRE a crew, either of NPCs you hire, or players. A lot of backers are rabid fanboys, and unfortunately they give a bad impression of the Star Citizen fanbase as a whole. I myself, while a backer, remain skeptically optimistic, and hope that CIG pulls this off, cause I really do want to play the game when it's done. Somewhat-related, is the game Squadron 42, which is being developed by CIG alongside Star Citizen. And it is a story-driven Single Player campaign, as opposed to Star Citizen, which is an open universe multiplayer world. In case that's more your style.

I edited this to replace the hull a with the hull b. Can I just be a champion for the Hull B? I think the Hull B is an amazing ship to start with in star citizen. It hauls so much for its price and it may haul enough to be able to afford escorts. It is such a good moneymaker. I wish it was further in the pipeline than it is. All this is ignoring serious issues with tankiness on ships. A light fighter or even a starter ship will probably rip a Hull B apart as the game currently stands. They would be a pretty tasty and risk free target for a cutlass. On top of that, it may be such an easy target (same goes for the whole hull series) that escorts may not do you any good if it is so easy to zerg you down and your escorts have no purpose anymore. On a plus, if the shields can't protect your cargo, maybe pirates will just take as much as they can carry (which is very limited compared to what even a hull A can haul) and leave the rest of your cargo alone. The vulnerability of the Hull Series may be an *advantage* of them rather than the interior hauling ships

I take this back. A Hull A only hauls 48 scu. A Cutlass can mostly clean you out and is only marginally more expensive. The Cutlass Black is probably a better, less conspicuous, and less appealing target than the hull A, all while being more agile, land on planets, and multirole. Hull B though all of the above applies to

What about the theory that the MM will somehow dock with or let Banu Defenders use it's jump capability? I'm definitely all in on the MM, it's my dream ship for a game like this. I'm gonna stock up on goods and crew, then just set off on a permanent trade voyage to see what I can find.

I have a Hull-B with Hull-C CCU. Watching this, I am tempted to consider a BMM CCU. Damn you LawoftheWest. I really hope your concern with the cargo and it's shielding is not something I have to be worried about in the future :| . Do you think that you could change the law of the Verse, where every Hull C owner upgrades to a BMM, making it one of the most popular ships in the Verse (at least with player's) ;) .

It's going to be fun to find out. Way back when, during an interview with the artist who was working on the defender, he said that they're going to try and create some kind of synergy between the two ships. But what form that's going to take was still being debated on. It sounds like they're going to try and push for some kind of ability for the two ships to dock in some way, maybe even like how the Merlin docks with a Connie, but in the end nothing's definite at this time. I'm hoping that we'll get some more info on this when the defender's released in 3.7

There are a number of large multi-crew ships currently in game (eg, retaliator, hammerhead, starfarer, reclaimer, 600i, 890Jump) that range between 90-200m in length and have a max crew requirement of between 4-7 but 'require' a minimum crew of 2-4. By minimum it means you can still fly from A to B, but if you want use the scanners or manned turrets at the same time as you flying it you will need npcs...but you can still fly around the verse just fine.
