    Aside from the costs, CIG also said that they are also aware that SC is a game and that they want players to be able to enjoy their ships. So there will always be a balance. I have a Polaris. Looking forward to its release.
  • @vikingsdawn1301
    People don't understand if you have an (Idris / Kraken / Javalin) in an organisation or clan battle and a Polaris jumps in you are probably going to start sweating a lot especially if you're locked into a fight because the way that CIG has talked about the Polaris is it's meant to hit extremely hard and run and even if it does get locked in a fight it's still going to be extremely tough to take out. ( I'm not saying it is the best capital ship but if used correctly it will be deadly. )
  • @elricxx
    I am pretty excited for the Polaris honestly. Got my CCU chain at 50% the price and its almost complete. Building another chain to Perseus as well.
  • Glad to see you are back! I missed the informative and thoughtful content you make. Looking forward to more!

    Such a well rounded and no bs sum up, subscribed

    Excellent video and break down! Earned my subscription. I was watching Stardock's live stream going over the design and they did say they believed a Legionnaire would just fit on the hangar. One detail that came out was that they said the Polaris, when it comes in, will be the first ship with a hangar that can re-arm, refuel, and repair ships.
  • @luc_mns
    Great video! I just picked one CCU from my Perseus and we'll see how both ships turns out. I admit the crew size issue is a bit concerning but what the Polaris offers for "just" 75 dollars more is crazy compared to the Perseus.

    My brother just picked up a Polaris and i'm very excited to help him crew it in game. Great video! subscribed

    Missiles are so useless right now, im concerned the torpedoes being its main method of engagement, will make the Polaris far less effective than she should be. I fired off 3 torpedoes in my eclipse against the Bugsmasher pirate swarm idris, about 4000km away. The Idris was the last ship left, it's turrets were engaged fighting the UEE fighters and two other UEE Idris. The torps didn’t even make it 500m before the point defense systems took them down. In order to torp a ship, they basically need to be "dead in the water". The point defense systems will need to be disabled first, even then the engines will need to be disabled as well to prevent the target from flaring off the torp and moving.

    Outstanding overview with great production and sound quality. Your information was accurate, detailed, and up to date. I have no critiques, it was pretty much perfect. Subscribed.
  • @ShadowGirl-
    Also the Polaris has 20% signature reduction on IR EM and Cross-section, making it a bit more suitable for stealth operations. I got mine for $420, and am already creating documents for it, like a crew roster. 14 crew is a lot of seats, but just think of the fun times!
  • I recently upgraded my Carrack to the Polaris, currently gathering a crew for the ultimate multi-crew experience!
  • @Sanjarih
    Polaris should come with a RSI Nursa, becuase it makes the most sense and they should increase the vehicle bay size so that it may accommodate a tank. Just a few hopeful dreams from a Polaris owner. Also, similar to you, I just upgraded my concept Carrack to the Polaris with $106, so in total, I paid $406 for this ship which is a banger deal imo
  • @Tacticalpanda757
    One thing I want to know or Id love to see from the Polaris is the ability to strike ground targets with its torpedos from low orbit. Say youre raiding a bunker. 2 torpedos onto the surface of that bunker all the turrets are destroyed and whatever ground support they have is crippled allowing the landing crew to get in unscathed. That would be amazing
  • @MarcWeavers
    fate of bedlogging was addressed in SCL a week or 2 before 3.23 went live. they want to keep it, make it better, and give some sort of "good night's sleep" buff, as well as have you be able to log out anywhere and log back in where you were.
  • I didn’t think I’d be exited about the Polaris, as I have the Perseus and Idris, but I’m very exited about this ship!
