The video discusses the Star Citizen 3.24 Evo Patch, focusing on the cargo PTU test under an NDA. The patch was considered unstable, with crashes occurring, but not as frequently as in previous tests. Players experienced issues like being locked out of the game and having their hangers become unstable, but there were workarounds to get back in. Despite the instability, there were periods of stability where players could explore and discuss their experiences with their party members.
The patch was incomplete, with certain features like cargo missions, commodity rebalance, and Blockade Runner not ready for feedback. The hanger system received attention, with different sized hangers having varying seu capacities. The visuals and sounds when calling a ship were praised, and players could spawn items inside freight elevators. However, there were issues with the cargo timers, with loading times varying significantly based on container size, which was deemed unrealistic.
Players could interact with various items in the hangers, like ship weapons and prospector bags, using tractor beams. Party members could spawn their own items and add them to their inventory. The video also touched on outposts and scrapyards, confirming the presence of elevators at these locations. Furniture could be purchased at specific areas, like dumpers Depot or cargo decks, with trolleys available for roleplay purposes. The video highlighted Arena Commander changes, including new night vision and weapon recoil mechanics.
Overall, the Evo Patch was considered solid, with improvements in various aspects like visuals, interactions, and gameplay mechanics. The rush to push the patch to PTU was noted, indicating a potential quick release to players. However, the main concerns revolved around stability issues and the need for balancing cargo timers and hanger experiences. Despite some flaws, the patch showed promise with its polish and potential for a positive player experience once the issues are addressed.
