Drydock: Nautilus Class Minelayer | Star Citizen 4K

I love these drydocks! Please keep doing them!

i just love the nautilus profile and looks and specially the bridge, cant wait to get my hands on this

I love this ship, and i rly hope we will see some different versions from this ship design.

Farrister, I like your thinking about the potential functions of the Nautilus. There have been television shows and movies that show the use of mines in space and even in ocean based environments during war that deter or stop aggressors from penetrating or limiting access to areas. Deep Space 9 episodes and Galaxy Quest both showed minefields in space and how they could be used. Of course there were also uses that I know about during wars that did pretty much the same. Thanks for the video, and keep doing them. Take care my friend, fly safe and I'll see you in the verse.

A well coordinated fleet will use this for setting up ambushes. Lay bait like a medical rescue beacon, encircle the AO with sentry mines, then when anyone shows up to assist, the mines open fire. Fleet warps in from near by to engage the target. Then bring in your clean up crew to mop up what's left. Relocate bait to another area, send Naut to setup the mines, and prep ambush fleet for next op. Imagine trying to escape a trap only to be surrounded by mines in all directions raining fire on to your ship.

I love drydock, its got your ship review charm and really makes me excited for star citizen updates

10-15 years from now, I'm going to love flying this ship

This ship looks great, outer cockpit design speaks to me a lot and its profile when the mine thing is down looks super sleek, love the VTOL thrusters. I hope there will be variants or modules, as it would be really too bad to miss out on such a gorgeous looking ship just because of it being stuck in a silly gameplay loop.

What a cool ship. Can't wait to see them in game. The space around Grim Hex is about to become very crowded with ship debris. Thanks for the fantastic video, Farrister!

This ship have entered my thought's alot lately after Pyro, its clear it will be very valubal for mining and salvage operation. Deploying 25 turret mines withe size 2 is not something casual for defence. Think of this ship as a spider, withe a rather large web to pass. 2x size 7 in the middel of the web is a bit scary.

It would work well for disengagement, and defense. Whether helping a fleet escape, or a small mine field around a (mostly) stationary market ship.

If the mines have a sensor range of 2k or so, like a ship might, that might be able to help protect a cap ship from getting snuck up on. Great for a Privateer.

Id love to see mines and drones worked on soon. The Nautilus looks to be a very interesting ship in the hammerhead size category. Area denial around locations such as SPK or GHex could make for interesting gameplay. Could even be good for locking down a salvage zone.

Another drydock video :D

This is the ultimate troll ship lmao the verse will be way more dangerous.

Yay! Thanks Farrister!😃 A dev posted early whitebox walkthrough and animations for the Nautilus, YouTube 'Ein Leak Der AEGIS Nautilus''.

Worth mentioning that the Nautilus is capable of deploying probe drones as well. It can act as a combination scout and escort for a salvage team, with the bonus of being able to dispose of any explosive surprises you may run into.

As soon as I saw that ship, I had to have one. So I got myself a Nautilus Solstice for good measure. 😂

Here’s my contribution to your conjecture. We have the mining claim Jumper missions now, which have century mines. I believe you said that is a potential for one of the minds to be deployed. I could see the Nautilis setting those up around a claim, and patrol in the area.

Yes! Finally! My lovely main beauty ship. Thank you!
