In the video, the presenter introduces the MISC Fortune, a newly flyable ship in Star Citizen’s Alpha 4.0.1, which serves as a salvage version of the Prospector. Available for $160 on the RSA store, the Fortune will also be accessible in-game within three months. The ship is described as a more automated alternative to the Vulture, allowing players to salvage without needing to leave their cockpit, making it ideal for those who prefer a more laid-back gameplay style.
The Fortune features a unique design with external panels that dispense salvage into six external cargo pads, accommodating a total of 12 SCU of external cargo, along with additional internal storage. The ship has a single salvage head that operates differently from the Vulture, which is faster but requires more hands-on management. The presenter emphasizes the ship’s automation, making it appealing to players who want to enjoy salvage operations without the hassle of constant manual control.
The video also showcases the interior of the Fortune, highlighting its cockpit, living area, and various storage compartments. The ship is equipped with a bed, toilet, and shower, as well as a cargo lift for larger components. The layout is designed to be user-friendly, with advanced HUD options currently under testing, allowing players to customize their interface according to their preferences.
During a Q&A segment, the presenter discusses several technical aspects of the Fortune, comparing it to the Vulture. The Fortune has a larger quantum fuel capacity, enabling longer salvage operations, while its salvage arm functions similarly to the Prospector’s but is tailored for salvage tasks. The ship’s interior has been updated to modern standards, and it has additional rooms not found in the Prospector, enhancing its functionality.
The video concludes with the presenter expressing excitement about the Fortune’s potential in the salvage role, emphasizing the importance of player feedback in refining the ship’s features. They encourage viewers to share their opinions on the ship and its gameplay mechanics. Additionally, the presenter mentions a ship giveaway, promoting community engagement and support for the channel.
