Best Ships for Star Citizen Patch 3.23 - Best Starter, Medium, Large, and Heavy Ships

In the massive universe of Star Citizen, players are always looking for a new update that changes things for the better, adds something new to the mix, and balances or fixes the game. The Star Citizen 3.23 is exactly that, providing a huge update for players and a starting point for old players to kick-start their space adventure. While a ship is your best friend in the game, some new changes diminish the old concepts. To tackle that, we are here with our guide to the Best Ships for Star Citizen Patch 3.23.

Ships Categorized by Weight

Getting started, we are going to be providing information on the two best ships in each weight class. So, it will be something like two ships each for:

Starter Ships
Medium Ships
Large Ships
Heavy Ships

Why are we doing it like this? Well, as already mentioned, there are new players coming to Star Citizen because of this new Star Citizen 3.23 update. Thus, providing two ships for each of the four classes of ships makes it easier for every player, whether beginner, regular, or pro late gamer to get the most out of their ships in Star Citizen 3.23.

Factors to Consider Best Ships

There are many factors, but we are going to look at the following ones to differentiate between ships in Star Citizen 3.23.

Physical Weapon Racks
Cargo Capacity
Personal Storage
Ease of Loading
Ease of Use
Survivability

Best Starter Ships in Star Citizen 3.23

These are the early game or beginner ships that players coming to Star Citizen as new players will mostly use.

Nomad

The Best Starter Ship for beginners in Star Citizen 3.23 is Nomad. Previously we wouldn’t recommend it, but as of the new update 3.23, the Nomad has gotten pretty good.

It is budget-friendly, has 24 SCU, has a tractor beam, effortless access to cargo from the back, freight elevator, ease of use

On the contrary, there is no internal storage here, as there are no gun racks to put your guns inside. Furthermore, you can’t access the insight storage area, which limits you.

For example, if you don’t have a helmet on, and you are out in space, wanting to get out. You are out of luck here, as you can only access the storage area from outside.

So, in case you only want to move around, move your cargo, and easily travel, then the Nomad is a good ship altogether. Just make sure you have a full armor set on, and 24 SCU for a Starter Ship is pretty great.

Drake Cutter Rambler

It might seem quite off to pick in the category of Best Starter Ships in Star Citizen 3.23, but there is a good reason behind it. This one is quite the opposite of Nomad, as in the Nomad, you have this massive space but it is on the outside, and in the Drake Cutter Rambler it has that same massive space but it is on the inside.

It comes with 2 SCU of cargo space and can be accessed from the inside. This includes two gun racks, pistol racks, and a large weapon rack, and next to the bridge we also have two large ones, and pistol racks.

Furthermore, there is also personal storage for you from the inside of the ship. Thus, if you are looking for a great starter ship for beginners who want a good internal space for weapons and personal stuff, then the Rambler is the right pick.

On the contrary, if you want a ship with bigger space but on the outside, then going with the Nomad is a good decision.

Best Medium Ships in Star Citizen 3.23

Moving on, let’s talk about the two Best Medium Ships at the moment in Star Citizen 3.23, and so on.

Crusader Industries C1 Spirit

This one comes with a cargo capacity of 64 SCU and you can get the cargo on the ship from behind directly. This one also doesn’t have any entry points from the side.

Passing from the bridge, you will find suit lockers, a gun rack for two guns, pistol space, personal storage, and pods.

We also have a tractor beam, and everything here is quite easy to access in contrast to other ships of the same caliber.

The wings on the side do get in the way, as the ship is quite massive. But, that isn’t something to worry about.

The Drake Cutlass Black

The Drake Cutlass Black is on the same scale as the previous one, but it doesn’t have those massive wings that come in the way.

It not only has a good entrance from the back through the rail, but it also has two entry points in the middle through the swinging doors.

You have the freight elevator which is pretty easy to use, and on the back, you also have the tractor beam, which has a terrible placement not allowing you to look inside the space.

Going inside, you will find a bunch of gun racks, crew personal storage/lockers, and so on.

Best Large Ships in Star Citizen 3.23

We got through the Starter and the Medium Ships, and let’s move on to the next segment which is for players who are already in the later stage of the game. Following are the two best Large Ships in Star Citizen 3.23.

Drake Interplanetary Corsair

Corsair comes with that massive 72 SCU cargo space, and on the contrary, it is one of the most effortlessly accessible ships to put stuff on from behind, through the freight elevator.

Being a large ship, it has a fairly large entry point from behind, and as you get in, you have doors to give you access to the ship as well.

Inside, you have the whole armory in this ship with two large weapon slots, six gun racks, nine pistol racks, armor lockers, physical weapon racks, and much more.

Furthermore, as you move inside, the Drake Corsair has crew quarters, small spaces for each crew member with his/her own storage space. There is a captain quarter separately closer to the driver seat area.

You have an air-locked door that allows you to gear up directly and make a move as quickly as possible.

The only drawback here is the thrusters that can easily break, and when they do, the ship basically loses all its personality.

It is one of the best ships for multi-crew, cargo, and basically everything else. All in all, a well-off-rounder ship.

RSI Constellation Taurus

In the Star Citizen 3.23, the RSI Constellation Taurus is one of the best Cargo Hauling Ships, and also one of the best Large Ships in the game so far.

The reason is its cargo bay, which drops straight down to the floor, and has this massive 174 SCU cargo space available.

You can get the cargo directly on it from the freight elevator. So, the ease of access is just phenomenal.

The tractor beam also comes down directly, so that you can effortlessly put the cargo.

Coming to the accessibility points of the ship, it is also one of the best ships to effortlessly get inside and then out of.

A front elevator takes you directly into the cockpit. Talking about inside, you have a ton of armor lockers, and few gun racks. This is also the downside, as the ship has few gun racks.

But, the massive storage space makes up for all the mistakes.

Best Heavy Ships in Star Citizen 3.23

Finally, we are here in the last segment of our Best Ships in Star Citizen Patch 3.23 guide. We are going to be talking about the best of the best, and the most expensive ships in the game - Heavy Ships.

Crusader Industries C2 Hercules Starlifter

This ship has the largest cargo capacity available in the game till Star Citizen patch 3.23 besides Hull D.

Effortless back entry, freight elevator, storage unit bays on the top floor spread out for each member, radar systems, tons of large and small gun racks, suit lockers, escape pods, and much more.

Crusader Industries M2 Hercules

The M2 Hercules Starlifter looks as if it has the same amount of cargo space, but this one has around 468 SCU cargo space that can be loaded on. On the contrary, this one is as simple as C2 to load the cargo.

Same as the C2, there are storage units on the first floor, but the real difference is in the space on the bridge side. The M2 has weapon racks on each side and a separate crew space that looks like a dining hall.

These are shaped like drop pods, then furthermore there is also an armory here with gun storage space and extra personal storage space.

So, the difference between M2 and C2 is definitely the internal storage and the external storage. The C2 has more external, while the M2 has more internal.

This winds up our Best Heavy Ships in Star Citizen 3.23. Quite similar, but a minute detail makes a big difference for late gamers.
