    Just found your channel, loving the videos so far. You may know this, but others may not. Accessing ship inventory lockers that say "external" is separate from the actual Vehicle ship inventory accessed with "i" anywhere in the ship. The main difference being, anyone can take things from the "external" locker. For example, in the Corsair, each bed has a drawer with separate "external" storage, which I load up with gear for people who come onto my ship to group for missions, so they don't lose their good stuff, but I can still load things into the Vehicle inventory that they can't access, and same for them.

    I love my little Spacedumpster.
    Started out at this years IAE because the LTI Gamepack deal was just to good to pass.
    Done some Deliveries, Low Risk Bounties, Bunkers and just general looting with it and it handles everything like a champ.
    I keep a PTV in the Cargobay to be able to drive to the hostile Bunkers and I still got enough space for Delivery Boxes or to loot the armor of "a willing participant".
    Hopefully CIG releases the Ranger Series at some point in the near future because those would litterally be the perfect companion craft for the Cutter.
    Personally from what limited experience I gathered during the previous freeflights I participated in, the Cutter IS the best and most refined Startership currently avilable closely followed only by the Nomad.
    Its got litterally every facility you could ask for on a spaceship. Its got features many bigger ships dont have.
    Load up enough Food and Water and you could live inside that thing for a month or even more.
    Try doing that with a Titan. The first time you need to take a leak you'd be boned.
    Its the little things that matter. Like the lockable Cockpit Door.
    Picked up two straned folks in the middle of nowhere.
    If they would have been hostile, flying something like a Titan or even the 300 Series would have been a problem because they would have direct access to my person. With the Cutter, I just seperate myself with the press of a button and am completly safe.

    I will say one thing, the mustang alpha was a frustrating starter ship and nearly tarnished my first impression of the game. I chose it because it looked cool and I figured it would be fast or have SOME dogfighting advantage, but it is painfully underpowered.
    I think for the game, something like this cutter is perfect because being able to walk around your ship absolutely seals the deal.
    The mustang and the aurora are frustratingly small.
    I understand the need for grinding and a sense of progression, but I think this game serves itself better by dazzling you straight off the bat and having a walkable interior with that gorgeous detail and cargo capability is just unbeatable.

    • @Farrister

    For size 1 shields. The best currently is the Palisade. All shields offer the same....everything, across shields of similar size, except the Palisade, which has a greater ballistics resistance than all other shields in game. Just FYI.

  • @turok1998
    @turok1998 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Take off the guns and shields and the EM signature on the cutter is in the 400s. It will also hold a nox in its cargo bay, which could make it pretty useful for com array missions and obviously bunker runs. I haven't tried to see if the klesher missile turrets will get a lock on it, but if they use EM missiles then it would be great for felon pickups as well.

    After learning the basics in it, i grinded to a constellation Phoenix. I recently bought a Gladius, but I still love taking the cutter out on explorations and doing low level missions. It reminds me of my old 1995 ford e150 van that i converted into a camper van. Its easy on fuel, provides u with a bed and has a little room for storage. Its a great all around ship for a solo player. I still be using mine ALOT.

    Seeing the cutter and the corsair coming into the game with a polished design(as far as drake is concerned) the cutlass black is in desperate need of a gold standard. I love the cutter ! Its my starter on my zero to hero account.

    Excellent video. o7 My thoughts on it are a bit mixed, I am terribly tempted to grab the C8 meical Pices instead, but the Cutter has a lot of benefits.
    The Cutter can be claimed almost instantly, it fits a bike or a vehicle (though not the hoverquad, strangely), and is perfect for packages with its large cargo area. The QT fuel tank is currently quite impressive, though we'll see if it gets nerfed. Potentially, its cargo area will benefit from the "soon" to be available 3.18 and PES. My character also doesn't clip through when setting down a package as happens in the 100 series, so no damage or getting stuck in the walls. It also supports bed logging to pick up where I left off, has a weapon rack, and I stored a decorative item in its fire extinguisher spot so that was neat.
    The bathroom is neat, I appreciate it, but it's not likely to have a practical use for years so it's whatever. Also, it flies pretty much like a brick and it's slow even at full throttle, and the vtol behavior is strangely bouncy. Even at the weakest thrust, the Cutter bounces off of the ground a bit too high when lifting off. I guess the engines ARE huge for it, but it's weird.
    All that said, the C8R's medical bed would be immediately useful. Even for a solo player it means easily available hydration & food and patching up minor injuries. It also apparently spawns with a couple of simple supplies, so that's very cool, and it handles much better than the Cutter. To be honest, if it wasn't for the Foundation Festival pain for the 100i I'd be tempted to swap the 100i to the C8R, but I don't want to lose the paint when swapping the ship over.

    Greetings Farrister. Thank you for the review of the Drake Cutter. I honestly haven't flown one yet, so your review helps me. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about it. I pledged for one during the show, for a Christmas/Luminalia gift for myself. I probably don't need it, but I liked it. Simple and too the point. It's a nice ship.

    Seems like the Cutter really fulfills a niche I've been needing to scratch before getting into the game.
    Up until now it seems like the options have been either start at the absolute bottom of the barrel with the Aurora MR, wallow about in a sea of tiny, railroaded interiorless ships, or dish out just a little more than I'm comfortable with spending with the do it all Avenger Titan, whose aesthetics I utterly abhor regardless of practicality. It's a claustrophobic, windowless toothpaste-tube that appears, frankly, out of place in a setting as sci-fi as Star Citizen. It looks like it should be an antique from 2050, not the third millennium. Hell, even Drake ships look more futuristic than the Titan, as the Cutter goes to show.
    So yeah, if I ever get that PC upgrade I'm gunning for, the Cutter looks like the way.

    I just bought it as a foundation for a ship upgrade chain, the bundle had an okayish price (starter pack price was almost identical to ship only price) and you later will be able to create a personal NPC if you have more than one starter pack. One reason for that is, that it has a lifetime insurance and this will transfer to any ship you will upgrade to. At the other hand it is a nice ship, because this will be one of the first with really functional components and other functions of the ship.

    It's a runabout. The cutter having a bed and shower, and enough room for a couple different types of ground vehicles make it an amazing runabout. Especially with that amazing QT fuel capacity. Whether you're using a VK-00 or an Atlas, you'll be flying around the system for cheap, and landing in tight areas.
    My personal runabout will probably be my C8R, but a cutter is a pretty attractive offer.

    Fun fact: the Razor Crest, which the Cutter seems to draw a bit of inspiration from, is estimated to be a bit less than 30m long, which is also roughly the length of this ship that we Citizens would consider tiny. Really shows the difference in ship scales between the two franchises.
    There's a lot I like about the Cutter and it's undoubtedly a useful ship, although I don't really enjoy the Drake style and philosophy. It's really a perfect mobile mini home if it weren't for the fact that it's a Drake ship and retains the rust bucket identity that I, when immersing myself, wouldn't trust with my life. Still, I'm definitely planning to try it out for some time.

    I think it would have been improved if they'd have turned the bathroom 90 degrees, shifted everything on the port side of the hab room back to the rear bulkhead, and put a door just behind the cockpit bulkhead. Just a door, not an airlock. Maybe something along the lines of the side door of an ursa where the lower half swings down as a step and the upper half swings up.
    This would allow them do double the cargo grid to 8 scu and still have access to the interior of the ship. (although you'd have to depressurize the hab room if you're in vacuum)
    That would put it more in line with the Avenger, but you'd trade the better firepower for the ability to haul a bit bigger vehicle.
