I won't vote (because Google) but will anyway comment here.
My primary ship what I like to use from S-class is Discoverer. Been using that and Falcon a lot when fighting against Xenon S- and M-size ships. It have enough firepower and agile when I put Argon combat engine mk3, Teladi shield mk3 and 2*bolt or bolt + Blast mortar combination.
I know things will change with 7.50 becuase new boost system. So most probably S-size ships become less fun to fight against M-size ships which have high shield capacity.

My second favorite ship is Dragon Raider. I equip that with 2*Bolt + 2*ION blaster + 2*Tau and 2 flak turrets. It's excellent against the most of ships and nice to handle. With TER mk3 shield it can take little bit more hits which can be sometimes challenge against Yaki's Kuraokami (as I don't want kill those but make crew bail out). To just kill it wouldn't be problem at all.

Hello all. It's a shame some of us can't vote on these polls. I don't have a Google account and don't want one. Why can't these polls be put on Discord or on the Egosoft forum's?

I don't have a Discord account and I don't want one... Google accounts are mandatory for android phones so the coverage should be higher than the new Discord thingy. Egosoft boards are a bit too limited I guess. :gruebel:

A weird survey for me. I don't have a personal ship in this game. Why would I? I can teleport all over the universe!

I put in the Boron scout ship because it's crazy fast, so I like having it in the early game. If I do a custom start where I don't begin with a lot of stuff, that's the ship I'll pick to start in. Once the game really gets going, though, it will likely get parked at a space station with a faction leader just so I can teleport to it.

Hello X-Fans,

The Favourite Ship Survey has been concluded, and its data has been analyzed. It has shed light on some interesting findings. We'd like to thank everyone who participated!

We'd like to share the simplified results with you, so that we don't leave you in the dark:

Top 20 Favourite Ships in Descending Order:
  1. Katana
  2. Xperimental Shuttle
  3. Hydra
  4. Moreya
  5. Dragon
  6. Syn
  7. Rattlesnake
  8. Asgard
  9. Kuraokami
  10. Odachi
  11. Erlking
  12. Astrid
  13. Raptor
  14. Sapporo
  15. Chimera
  16. Odysseus
  17. Ray
  18. Guppy
  19. Pegasus
  20. Tokyo
*note: ship variants were merged into single entries when calculating this list.
  • Most players prefer to fly M-class ships by a significant margin, followed by S-class, L-class, and, finally, XL-class ships.
  • Most players consider strength and survivability the determining factors for their favourite ship, closely followed by speed and then aesthetics.
  • Most players obtained their "daily driver" ship by purchasing it at a wharf or shipyard, then by receiving it as a mission reward, and then by capturing it.
  • According to players, the best-looking ships are of Terran origin, followed by Boron and Split designs.
Again, thank you for participating in this survey and for sharing your thoughts on the topic at hand!
