im very excited for the pimp my ship series.

The bumpers really saved my current ship design in Career. I progressed up to Level 7-9 system before I ran into ships that were dangerous to me. The Quickdraw ship specifically - It is armed with one Deck Cannon and its strategy is to basically ram straight into your face and fire at close range. I had a couple close fights until a Pirate Base lvl 9 mission came up, where there were two Quickdraws defending the station. Those things kicked my ass, got straight into my shields and blew up my rail guns. I put a big bumper on my ship with armor, leaving gaps only for the rail guns to fire through. That saved me! they could no longer get straight past my shields - I came out of that fight with a couple hundred iron and some coils needed to repair, where before the same fight would lead to my ship being destroyed and usually both enemy ships still flying.

Keep it up! Looking forward to pimp my ship

168 hours in. Finally I see how to know the current value of the ship by clicking the arrow on the right above the stats. Great videos!

Wow. And I thought I knew everything about the game on the competitive side. Bumpers are such an ingenious way to both strengthen and spruce up your ship with a relatively cheap price!

The bumper thingy was very useful for future designs.

This deathstar thing is fire!!

Thanks for the tips. I’m glad your channel is doing well. =]

I tried the No automatic doors option but found that I forget to add a door more often than not and the auto door placement is generally good enough for a first draft of a design. Small bit of trivia I just noticed is that the ship on the main menu that warps in when the game finishes starting also warps out when you exit the game.

im just making waves in the algorythm.

At the point where I like before I start watching, good content. I’ll be back for this and any other colony/factory/sim/logistic type games you might take up. You have a digestible, smooth and detailed instructional flow.

Good stuff!! Keep it up !!

Very nice! Thanks.

Damn that's another banger! Thank you for all the work you put into your videos for us!!

first i thougt.. man shit, this is too short of an vid, but dang, is this some packed information in here. thanks.

Great videos, just got game 2 days ago. I think your mic sound might be a little low, not sure if that's just me. Keep it up :)

waaaaaaa i would like my ship to be optimized !! great video as always!

Thanks for the tips! Can you make a video on how to counter particular types of ships (mainly interested in career mode but pvp probably has some main archetypes)?

It would be cool in your ship series to try to retain certain design elements of the submission in some versions, such as profile or cost.

Also. Learn to manual fire. If you play long enough, you can be better than the ai at predicting enemy movements.
