Finally I know what the toy jet fighter I had as a kind was supposed to be and why I never found any information about it: a F19!

The latest films are crap, but I like the ships.

As someone who's played KSP, I can confirm that deorbiting requires a retrograde burn. You're not going to fly through space in a straight line and expect to get anywhere efficiently.

Hey! It is starsector! I am delighted.

In my book heat regulation is a major thing. The mech characters all have 'wings' that act as radiators, along with their hair and limbs, and have a respiration system where their blood transmits waste heat to a transparent coolant liquid that then passes through the wings. It's expected they will be damaged but because of how the system works it just turns into an active coolant system, and they are wreathed in steam, and if all radiators become inactive they are mission killed. At one point someone's brain and ganglia get damaged so their coolant system malfunctions and they melt from the inside out.

Actually, in space, there could be different environments with different ships. Some ships could be capable of flying in-atmosphere and landing, others could be large unaerodynamic vacuum-only craft. Carriers could be intended for long interplanetary/interstellar voyages, carrying a lot of fuel which makes them massive, slow to accelerate and unmaneuverable, while smaller fighters only capable of operating within a planetary SOI would be more maneuverable and faster to accelerate

The next one you need to do is your 10 ten sci-fi jet fighters.

I would give an honorable mention to the space vampire ship from 1985's Lifeforce.

If I understood it properly, even my beloved destroy ending was only a temporary victory because it's implied that the whole cycle will repeat itself once again when synthetic life is inevitably created.

slightly disappointed you never mentioned the revolving launchbay in the space battleship yamato

New to this video channel Would love to see a revamp of this including the F and G

"Dinosaurs" Shows a dimetrodon

They look cool tho

FTL NUKES

I disagree, the synthesis ending is the "best" ending, the crucible child tells us that every cycle is plagued by wars between synthetics and organics, which brings caos to the galaxy and puts life of all kinds in danger, hence why reapers and the harvest were created in order to keep peace. But as we learn with Geths and the Quarians and the relationship between IDE and joker, there's a way synthetics and organics can live in harmony, which eventually leads to a morphosis between the two and by choosing the "green ending" we just boost that process. Plus as seen later, every specie is greatly impacted and all the civilizations in the galaxy thrive like never before, this way we have proof that the "child" was telling us the truth. If we choose the red ending we leave space and possibility for another war between synthetics and organics to start again, with another specie in the future creating another crucible that in turn will create another type of reapers, which in turn will start the cycles all over again, I think that's what the "child" was trying to warn us about or we're just delaying for god knows how long the "synthesis".

Because real aircraft are not sci-fi

The IJN Yamato in WW2 was an example of too expensive. It was so big and expensive it was never risked in combat, because it would be a prime target immediately. But then an air attack sunk it anyway

With musket formations the main reason why they stood in lines wasn't because the guns were innacurate, it was so formations could be commanded easier. Before radio battlefields were incomprehensibly confusing places and the better organised force was usually the winner.

It *really* depends on the technology. If ships are just super big like in Star Wars or Babylon 5, and Fighters are actually effective, then it makes sense for most ships, or at least most big ships to carry fighters, since they probably have the space for a squadron or two. If it isn't actually feasible to keep carriers out of the battle-line, such as with precise and easy to use FTL, battlecarriers make sense because you will want your carriers to have some defenses of their own while their fighters are away.

kryptonian tech from man of steel

The Boulton Paul Defiant was a terrible fighter in reality and the idea as it is presented with it is also a failure. However, it did prove to be quite capable in the night fighter anti bomber role which depending on the universe you are working with could be quite deadly.

IMHO, you missed a key point in favor of an armed light freighter. It's the economy of scale thing. Where as a heavy freighter will probably be operating between large population centers on well patrolled shipping routes and doesn't really need to be armed (and if the cargo is high enough value they can probably pay for armed escorts), a light freighter is probably intended to operate out in the back of beyond, servicing tiny outposts or colonies that don't produce much going off-world but still might need a small amount of consumer goods or equipment. While the volume required might not justify the fuel expense, let alone the risk of a heavy freighter operating well outside the secure shipping lanes, the armed light freighter is perfect for this role. I imagine Serenity gets away with being unarmed because I can't see the Alliance allowing armed civilian ships, especially just having come out of the Unification War. Plus, they operate in a very limited set of boundaries, so the Black is getting better patrolled all the time.

Thank you! This was very cool.

Voice just reeks of arrogance .

The Centauri also demanded an apology from Sheridan when he destroyed one of their cruisers And likewise, he told them to shove it

The artificial intelligence is the fully activated in adulthood, fearful obsessive thinking human mind machine. The CONsciousness is the CON. The Hew-which keeps humans from being actual man. The race that Keeps the adult human RACE trapped in racing thoughts. Rise of the machine. Better learn how to do daily self forgiveness introspective writing on your current obsessive thoughts. Then voice your writing out loud can reverse the thought resonances you stored in your body's waters. So you can avoid sub-stance-standing, falling into drugs and alcohol. It's our Desteni to self improve ourselves. Take care

Also, who in here recited "long rang strategic strike group" *ten times* without interruption?

I should have known that comments here were influenced by none other than max0r's review of the game when this vid came out

i like the idea of a cube shaped missile; give it thrusters on every corner and it could make some serious evasive manuvers

By the by, it was 24 years from the declaration of “the new order” to Palpi McScrotumface’s death.

That last saturation attack eas amazing to play

i really dislike the ship designs of the union, the front looks fine, but their engines look really weird.... i think if they change them it be better

using the Terran ambient music from X4 foundations i see

The Peleus system in Wing Commander IV where you're forced to fight without radar, shields or tracking missiles until you manage to destroy the jamming capship.

The Arsenal Bird's cinematic intro in the game always gives me goosebumps. First your hear the ominous droning music, then you see it slowly come out from behind a distant cloud like some angel of vengeance. Then everything in the mission goes to shit.

Was the backround music from Starcraft 2

The Hover MLRS from the Command and Conquer series has always been my favorite example of a hover tank. A high mobility AGTM carrier that complements GDI's slower armor by raiding from unexpected directions or skirmishing with the traditionally higher-mobility brotherhood around the flanks of a battle makes it feel like it's filling a very important tactical niche in the command and conquer setting.

Sorry but I don’t agree that destroy is the best ending for the Mass effect trilogy. Control is… at least for me it is. I have spent all three games being a paragon. Choosing life and people before a mission. The Geth counts as people, Edi counts as people and destroying them is no better than the Reapers doing the same to preserve an age old cycle. Choosing to instead replace their whole worldview as your own hits differently when you’re playing as paragon. Yes Shepard dies but they control the Reapers. They can use them any way they like and the paragon Shepard simply rebuilds the relays. Not to repeat the cycle but to keep the progress that was made. To ensure that the future Shepard’s cycle made continues. They’re using the reapers as guardians and rebuilders instead of monsters hellbent on destruction. The paragon control ending is the closest thing to a good ending and that’s why I prefer it.

Titanfall just smashing giant robots into the ground without any real warning for the other team or explanation how is absolutely one of the best parts. Why use it just as mech, when you can also use it as artillery first

The existence of this shit-heap land vehicle is another example of why the TNG films sucked.

I never understood why they'd put a bunch of experimental systems on a long range explorer ship. I would think you'd want proven, reliable technologies on a deep range vessel that would be on its own for extended periods of time.

War Machine falling from like 100 feet in the air in an unpowered suit and surviving with nothing but paralysis in his legs is the least believable part of that movie, lol. You'd be paste. The immunity to kinetic impacts has always been the dumb part of how power armor is portrayed You can stick a guy in an impenetrable tin can all you want - they aren't going to survive being smashed into a wall at 500mph. Even if the armor itself is indestructible, the person inside is going to be a grease stain because there's no magic to nullify the forces involved in going from 500mph to zero instantaneously.

So, that's the purpose of Millennium Falcon's mandibles.

If its military I think they should be silver to protect better against lasers.

Star Bores is fantasy, not sci-fi, so it gets away with lots of absurd things. That said, the stupid size of the ships, which would drain entire systems just to build, let alone crew, is much of the reason I can't watch any of it. Trek and Galactica push the envelope for rational ship size.

I'm a game dev wworking on my first project. I'm hoping to start designing and devleoping my next game this year which will be a 2D co-op pve space sim and I'm intending to use radiators as a part of ship designs.

This is read/sounds like the disclaimer at the end of a commercial...

Fascinating. Thank you.
