The video discusses the recent release of the RSI Zeus ship in the Star Citizen 3.24.2 PTU, which has been highly anticipated by backers for testing. The presenter provides a walkthrough of the ship, highlighting its various entry points, including a ladder and an airlock that leads to a small walkway. The interior of the ship is praised for its design, featuring suit lockers, an engineering terminal, and a well-styled galley with a window. However, the presenter notes some quirks, such as a sticky bathroom door and the oddity of having shelves instead of a fourth bunk bed in the living area.
As the presenter explores the cockpit, they appreciate the visibility and layout but express some struggle with the updated multifunction displays (MFDs). The ship’s cockpit is equipped with two MFDs for the pilot, which the presenter finds manageable despite the learning curve associated with the new UI. The video also showcases the ship’s cargo bay, which is described as smaller than expected for a non-cargo variant, leading to a discussion about the balance between cargo space and living quarters.
After the walkthrough, the presenter takes the Zeus for a flight, noting the smooth handling and the ship’s potential as a versatile craft for bounty hunting. During the mission, they encounter some issues with the turret UI and power management, expressing frustration with the new design that requires scrolling to access information. The presenter suggests that the previous power management system was more user-friendly and calls for a return to the simpler layout for pilots.
The video shifts focus to the cargo-focused variant of the Zeus, the CL, which features a larger cargo bay but sacrifices some living space. Comparisons are made between the ES and CL variants, particularly regarding the layout and functionality of their respective galleys and cargo areas. The presenter appreciates the design elements and the unique tractor beam setup on the CL, which offers better visibility when loading cargo.
In conclusion, the presenter expresses excitement about the Zeus ship, believing it could become one of the best ships in the game due to its modern features and ease of use. They also mention the introduction of a new paint slot for the Terapin and announce a Halloween-themed giveaway for a game package, thanking viewers and patrons for their support. The video wraps up with a promise of more Star Citizen content in the future.
