after getting Boundary Herold, i renamed mine to Minimum Falcon because it's not quite a Millennium Falcon

[musicmaker]

if you stand outside the ship and scan it the Boundry Herald is listed as a explorer not a fighter which makes sence looking at the hyperdrive

[kholsa]

got mine today, if you look at it with your visor it is labelled as an Explorer, with 110 storage, 60 tech. And you're telling me it has good fighter stats, so it's a very well-rounded machine (pun intended) :)

I love this ship!
It fits my gameplay style perfectly. I'm always flying around in a fighter wishing I could have an explorer with a bad temper instead.
They made one. I am happy. I am a spikey leaf on the wind!

[RicochetForce]

Yes, we absolutely need more than 12. For example, if you’ve kept an exclusive ship of every expedition you’ve quickly run out of ship slots

Hey Ricey, I know it seems redundant, but if you add the A and B engine upgrades that you build for the hyperdrive and strangely enough also add the emergency warp drive, that you build and get the adjacency bonus just right, you should be able to get a few more light years in range. Just to give you an idea of my stats, I’m on Xbox, so of course no mods and I’ve got 410 damage/ 71, 126 DPS on my infra knife, shield 324.1, hyperdrive 1889.6 and manoeuvrability 1363.8, hopefully these stats help other get a reference of what can be done with this ship and maybe even find a way to make it better, without mods. Cheers and thanks for the awesome video.

Let’s see how much cargo the base ship can handle … expsuit inventory has more space than the ship ….

[triadriangle]

The Boundary Herald is great, but it has fewer storage than my interceptor which I've named "All Hopes Not Lost." So I'll probably be visiting planets with my interceptor more than the herald. Being a saucer-shaped vessel, I renamed my Boundary Herald "Dinner with the Unknown."

Swapping camera between 1st and 3rd person - open the menu as normal, with the camera option selected press CTRL and a number. It'll put that number on the menu item. Now, you can just press that number anytime to use that menu item without having to open and navigate the menu. PC only ofc.

NMS needs to increase the number of ships we can save. With the number of nice ships that have been given just in expeditions and there isn't a way keep them all. And then you add the randoms.

[HavilandTuft]

Awesome info!!! I’m glad to have the boundary!

[cryptotharg]

Mine doesn't seem too keen on landing. Anywhere. I have to keep ramming it into the ground before it will, reluctantly, set down. Otherwise, I like it.

[Kolbaar]

Quick note, when I got my ship I received an award for getting an S Class Explorer!
So at least the game itself sees the new ship as an explorer.

[VaasSeed]

Love it. But i'm flying my sentinal again, because the jubilee falcon (it's hie i named it) is absolutely not easy to land. It's way too big xD

[joetrosclair]

My opinion on the Ship type.
It’s an Explorer. The fact that you start the Expedition with an Explorer is a dead giveaway. It’s just that now we have an Explorer with teeth.
Just like the ship it’s obviously modeled from is a hauler /tug ship that got upgraded to be a pirate ship.

[furious]

After fixing it up, I enjoy the ship, but it is definitely quite difficult to land it on hilly terrains.

[andrewk.caesar]

Forgot to pick mines up from the quiksilver vendor. Thanks. The Freebie A class sentinel ship I got from the expedition is now S class. I like it. It has the variable wing configuration and a almost hauler class capacity. Most important it has the 700 plus maneuverability. And 1300+ hyperrange. Gonna get rid of my exotic 8 ball ship because my inventory is full. Replace it with that hedge ship.

[neocrimsoncloud]

After the latest patch, the engine effects are soooo good! There's even flames coming from the vents! It also lands a lot easier than before.

[adylfs]

Has anyone had a spin in the Herald after the October 30th patch yet? On Xbox I did a jolly take off, external camera view and... OK... or is it just me, losing it?

[cragzuk]

The major issue I have with this ship is its a frikin nightmare trying to land this thing and in alot of cases summon it via X command. The collision mesh on it is way to fcking big so you just get constant "Cannot land as landing area is not clear". Annoying as hell. Looks nice and has plenty of upgrades already added.
