This is an actual size comparison

Now if someone could find me a much bigger version of this I'd be very grateful, but this is impressive as it is. Seeing a comparison between just the crabsquid and a person is insane as it is, but seeing a reaper compared to the emperor leviathan is just mind boggling.

    Isn't the reef back bigger than that now?

    The human in that picture is actually a little bit too big. It should look more like this:
    yAjMpxN.png

    This size chart is also kind of outdated as can be seen with the Reefback having it's old size, and I've heard that the Sea Emperor will end up being smaller than this in the final game.
    Also, I think this is the biggest version of this image.

    @Kouji_San Where was that pic where you compared these sizes to a blue whale?

    Still going to be bigger than the Sea Dragon ;)

    Is the Cyclops really that size compared to a blue whale?

    The Blue Whale is also way too big in that picture.

    Here's another size comparison, after asking in Discord how big that wrecked Aurora is...

    ~1500m (1250m without the nose) I was told, although it feels and looks more like ~600m to me... Second pic, which is wrong \o/

    It's because of the low level of detail on some of the Aurora textures + the shrinking effect of the first person view. Like how a Reaper doesn't seem that large, but if you used Stasis Rifle and went freecam, you'd get an accurate representation of how large it really is.

    I refuse to believe that the aurora is that much bigger than the enterprise D. I mean sure, it is bigger, but there's no way it's that much bigger.

    I'm just relaying the numbers, I do think it looks more like a 600-700m vessel, based on the antenna's, bridge super structure and windows (the little greenish bits). Especially what with only 50 people onboard...

    But hey, them devs said it was 1.5Km, sooooo :D

    We could measure its size precisely ingame!

    Does seem like it's far bigger than it should be, but a lot of it may have been storage for the resources they were gonna need for building the Phasegate. Materials for actual construction, vehicles for any possible situation that could come up... Then recreational decks, and food production... The size still seems a bit large, and I'm not sure why its drive core is apparently right next to the edge of the hull (A collision from something or a shot from a hostile ship - like a pirate attack - would rupture it and then RIP Aurora. Seems like bad ship design, but would you really want to walk a thousand meters to repair that? XD

    I mean, they could find a way to speed up the journey sure, but the most cost effective solution was to have it nearby where the player can access it. Unless they stuck it in the middle, and had a ruptured section on the underside that you'd swim to. Perhaps a cave opening that lead up to it.

    The thing that gets me is that the enterprise has waaay more stuff inside, has more than 1k people in it, full luxurious crew quarters for those 1k people, and still manages to find space for storage. The aurora has 50 people and I'm supposed to believe that it's nearly 3 times the size of the enterprise?

    Something's not right here.

    According to the database it has 148 crew and 9 passengers with 0.25km³ cargo for the phasegate. From the looks the engine in the back and the reactor in the front take up almost half of the ship. May be large for the crew number, but then again look at the crew and size ratios of the average cargo ship on earth.

    It's likely mostly automated.

    The ship must have also had a cryopod room or some other type of FTL capability to build a phase gate, you have to get to the destination first to build it and create a gateway. Either way that's taking up another large portion of the ship, there's also the holo sim room, the hangerbay, recriminations and possibly a hydroponics room, plus all the vehicle bays, medical facility's and any type of armoury incase of pirates.

    Man, the alive creature had to be ridiculously gigantic.

    I hope to see a fan-art rendition of what this creature looked like when it was alive.

    Any art majors want to take the challenge?

    Instead of giving it just sea dragon arms or just emperor arms I gave it both.
