Love the max. Piloted this ship for half a year. It’s tough n capable. And good as a daily driver. I believe the Zeus will be the upgrade to the max. Similar cargo load with a different manufacturer. I’d say depends on your preferences of ship and without being able to pilot the Zeus it’s hard to say if it’s something that can beat the max. But I have little doubts.

You referred to the turret on the Freelancer Max as a remote turret. I think it's a manned turret, so it physically requires a crew member to go into the cargo bay and climb into it. The turret on the Zeus MK II CL is a true remote turret operated from the cockpit, providing a clear advantage to the crew.

Turret on the top of the Max has limited coverage towards the front. The Xeus will have full 360 coverage on the bottom. So advantage Zeus here. I feel its a good idea to hang on to the Max.

I love the MAX, and am still undecided if I want to upgrade to a Zeus, for me the main deciding factors are if a URSA will fit in the Zeus, and how the MAX looks after the gold-pass. CIG said that if you use all the Cargo in the Zeus, the componentents will not be able to be accessed, while in the MAX it looks like you still would be able. In all honesty, I think the MAX needs quite an overhaul, the docking collar should be on the side, this would open up the posibility to move the turrett on the top and make it a remote turret, by reducing the vrew to two players it would also give room for the docking collar on the side. The Compnents should be moved into the small cargo secion, as it would be hard to fit boxes through the door anyway and then put a remote tractor beam at the position where the back turret is, and it would be perfect. Personally I love that these ships are very close, as this makes for good balancing and people will most likly pick their favorite design.

i dont know if they will mirror the Hull A, but CIG has already said that they are getting away from the top and bottom mounted doorways. it was too much for the AI pathing to use them so all airlocks are going to be side mounted when all is said and done. it was mention in isc or scl a several months ago i believe. the MAX's turret is also manned, so if you are in a heavy battle area trying to get away, the gunner has to try and navigate the ship while you maybe performing evasive maneuvers and cause him to stumble. the CL has a remote turret, no chair change needed. you will be able to walk around the cargo in the MAX, but you will not be able to pass the cargo and go out the back of the CL if it is fully loaded with cargo. the MAX maybe easier to deal with component issues if you are loaded. i also believe they said that there will be a lot of rework to the components and then we can get better numbers on what every ship has. the freelancers need some major overhaul to bring them up to standards, i just dont know when that will be.

I often pick up the Lancer MAX in game because it's convenient and cheap but I really don't like the ship's personality. I also HATE trying to exit the rear cargo bay of the Lancer, always accidentally getting into the turret at the back, lol.

Indeed. But there are quite a lot of issues to address: a) Why would it need four crew members, when similar ships (f.e. Hull A) have a single pilot/operator or noticeably larger ships need four crew members to function properly? I would keep it a two crew member ship (pilot+operator/engineer/gunner), maybe add a jumpseat to carry a passenger. This would be a moch more fitting crew complement and would be the factor that differentiates it from similar ships like the Hull A. b) Reducing the crew number would go a long way to solve the issues with the living quarters. Keep two bunk beds and use the space on the other side for kitchen/storage/racks. A sanitary combo could be added by removing the current ladder exit and redesigning the secondary cargo hold. c) Just delete the secondary cargo hold and repurpose the space for a new airlock/docking port and suit lockers. d) Everything aft oft the new airlock section can be kept as it is. e) With the exception to replace the manned turret with a remote one. The Freelancer deserves to be an iconic ship with real purpose.

It's very likely the 2 size 4 fixed weapons on Zeus won't be replaceable with size 3 gimbaled ones. It looks like they are moving away from that concept and most new ships released in the last years didn't have that option. With ships of this size, that likely need to defend themselves against smaller ships, I think gimbals are almost required. And for that reason alone I would choose the Max over the Zeus CL any time. But then I remember that the Freelancers and Starfarers have the same cockpit visibility as some german bunkers I visited in Normandy a couple of years ago, so there is that to consider...

With master modes weapon rebalance, they are doing away with gimbals as an item.

Ok really thorough examination. In fact probably the most extensive comparison on ships I have seen. Handling should be between the spirit and the max. Crusader ships are always better handing that's their thing. Speed should be comparable the aero of the Zeus balancing the capacitors of the max. Yes, it will be more limited as a verhicle transport, but you could just use the constellation for that. Cargo loading will be faster, no partition in the cargo area. Fuel consumption seems tied to ship size so I wouldn't expect huge difference there. Looks I hated the looks and handling of the MAX. Firepower is a clear win for the max though accessing the turret when loaded is an issue the Zeus will not have. Overall it will very much be what's your flavor. Personally I don't like viewing the world, though the toaster like opening for the cockpit in the MAX but I know people that love it. The MAX was never my favourite ship but it is very capable and well appointed. For me though I look forward to piloting my Zeus.

One thing to take into account on the tractor beam, it's been stated that eventually there will be some fine tune changes to the handheld tractor beam and ones built into ships/vehicles. The long term goal from CIG is that you can use the handheld for small things up to a certain capacity however for bigger items you will need a dedicated loading tractor beam or utilize various vehicles/equipment in the docks for loading/unloading. So we won't be able to pick up a giant container with just our handheld tool and whip it around lol

Good point! I know the dedicated hand held tractor beam will be much stronger than the multi-tool, but unsure how much stronger. My guess, ship tractor beams can carry up to 32scu containers, multi-tool will carry 1scu, and the hand held tractor beam for everything in between.

Zeus is supposed to also have extra armored plating compared to the other variants. Not sure how that will play out vs the Max. Worth remembering that the turret for the Max is a pair of size one guns. The turret on the CL packs a pair of size 3s. Alongside this push for larger guns is also a pair of size four missiles for the Zeus. Not sure how useful that will be though. It’s a very good comparison at the end. Both good ships though.

I commend the visual work you've put into the video, but you're missing a lot of important info or misunderstood a lot of things while making this video: - With master modes and weapon rebalance coming (and most likely before the Zeus make it in game), you won't downsize your weapons anymore to have gimbals. All weapons that are not bespoke will come with gimbals, and you'll have the choice to activate them or not (activating gimbals make aiming easier but halves your fire rate). - The Zeus doesn't have 3xS3 shields but 3xS2 shields. That's not the same thing at all. They've also said that it's not following the rules we're used to when it comes to component balance as all ships will see changes to their components: CIG is redefining components and how they are balanced. - The Freelancer's turret isn't remote, it's a manend turret (while the Zeus does have a remote turret. - On both ships it looks like you won'be ablet o access the components when full of cargo (barely enough space to move around in the fully laoded freelancer, confirmed that cargo bay is inaccessible in the CL if full). This means that once engineering comes in, being fully loaded in these ships will have severe drawbacks

I like the Max but the rear turret has a limited firing arc and poor view making it pretty useless. It would probably be better as a remote turret like the CL. Keeping the crew together on the bridge. It flys like a brick in atmosphere as it should so its definitely more useful in space. All the Freelancers need an update pass to bring them up to current standards. I think we can expect them to be more like the Hull A when it's all done. But, I'm not sure. If the Max stays the way it is, then it's not worth keeping. But, if it gets an update. It might be the better option for long distance hauling in hostile space with its 4 engines while avoiding planetary flight completely.

The actual wording -" RSI has accepted that this will block access to your ship components meaning if something goes wrong you're going to have a hard time doing repairs. For some people that risk is acceptable, for others it isnt worth it" This was said by MGibson@CIG

Without a tractor beam can't transport big scu crates. That's gonna be gone in the future. Lack of tractor beam in freelancer max means you can't salvage big cargo boxes.

Gimbled weapons now no longer reduce size, so Zeus has clear advantage in firepower.

The main reason I left out the C1 was due to less SCU in comparison. 64 vs 128/120. But the C1 has been great for 3.24.

Why does no star citizen content creator mention ingame prices?! It‘s mostly cargo space and price. Where is the price? I come from Elite and I don‘t get it.

I generally don’t include in-game price because those can change with the state of development. I have mentioned them in some of my videos.

If the Zeus has 128 SCU of cargo, that would mean 4 big 32 SCU cargo containers. The Max on its side will be very complex and long to load with a small 12 SCU internal cargo bay and a big 110 ones that will not fit the bigger containers and many small containers. Cargo legacy ships are doomed by that with manual loading/unloading.

I suspect CIG will modernize/update legacy ships to better accommodate the direction cargo is headed, but to your point, that’s probably limited unless a complete redesign. We’ll see in time.

By now, after these many years, CIG should know that people who spend 150 USD on one single mid-hauler are likely someone has no interet in PVP and mostly just fly solo, so freelancer's cockpit is really sucks, player can only use like 20-25% of the room, most of its space are wasted and the cockpit front window gives shitty views. A Haul-A style or prospector style cockpit will be more fitting, since lets just be practical: mid-size hauler plays alone.

I’m curious to see if how much of a change the Freelancer series will get during a gold pass. The Prospector is awesome but not ideal, but the Haul A windshield should be the MISC standard.

4 people in a freelancer is too much. It's a waste of space and money. You have to make money for 4 peoples when 2 are enough (let's say 3 : pilot+turret+engineer). The Zeus CL look better in every thing except defense.
