Star Citizen is updating fast... (Crusader Spirit C1 Showcase)

Star Citizen keeps getting updates and big changes are coming. In this video, I showcase the new Crusader Spirit C1 with its fully-featured tractor beam. Spoiler alert, it's kind of insane all this new content coming to Star Citizen. Let me know what you think about the Crusader C1 and the new tractor-beam turrets.

Welcome back, Ollie! I want to thank you again for suddenly stopping your Planet Coaster videos out of nowhere. I was into that series. But then I saw that you switched over to SC and got more info on it. Next thing I know, I'm in the verse in an RSI starter ship. LOL! That was just over a year ago. Haven't looked back. 👍

[@ArtemisTGM]

So wholesome*

[@Lazidiz]

Enjoy

[@lpk822]

Ollie the kind of guy to apologize for being sick Seriously tho, keep up the awesome work, and get well soon👍

[@michaelsmith2039]

I crashed to desktop while testing the New Player Experience out of New Babbage 2x times. 1st time I was on the metroloop and on recovery I was still travelling on the metro in same spot on train with it at it new location along the route. I was present for the journey even when not logged on. 2nd time I was on first flight to station and had cruise on, altitude was 15k and when i got back in I was at 65K. Both times it saved my location and picked back up on the quest where I was. Still completed the tutorail and paid out. This is huge for the game.

[@ProxyMooseGaming]

That's really good news!

[@darthsolani]

Definitely recommend increasing RAM to 32GB at a minimum to reduce crashes!

[@Cjorss]

Looks like they buffed the cargo capacity from 48 to 64, nice. Though according to erkul games it has the same flying characteristics as the A1 making it a little more sluggish than the MSR in every way aside from maybe forward acceleration. It seems like it really should handle better considering the MSR weighs 5 times more, and can carry 1.78 times more cargo.

[@MaticTheProto]

The C1 also has twice the engines lol

[@rooster1012]

It hasn't even gone through a balance pass yet.

[@iamflartebartfarst]

I've flown the A1 and I certainly do not think it handles worse than the MSR. The MSR handles like a ship which is much larger than this one.

[@Cjorss]

@OrangeWinchester I'm just going by the stats you can see. In terms of how many degrees per second it can pitch up and down, yaw left and right, and roll are all slightly slower than the MSR. That likely doesn't tell the whole story of course. If Inertia is based on weight, then the A1 should change it's speed more responsively even if all of it's aiming type motions are slower. For example even with those aiming motions being slower, if the A1 has less inertia than it will be quicker to stop that motion and so will feel more responsive. I just don't know if weight actually works that way or if it's just for flavour. Or maybe there are some other hidden stats that explain your experience.

[@hugoleger4675]

I'm the one who did the "IAE 2953 sign" by the way :P. Thanks for the upload!

[@zerofoxgavin1286]

"Star Citizen is updating fast..." Something you never heard anyone say about Elite Dangerous.

[@AmChris13]

9:21 1MN = 1 Mega Newton = 1 000 000 Newton (metric unit of Force)

[@TaranTatsuuchi]

All these years spent getting the tech to work... Imagine the progress that'll come once all that tech is ready.

[@CatalystDestiny]

The real thing that's starting to cause a HUGE burst of development speed is SQ42 being feature complete. Polish phase is just small specific teams of devs hashing out the actual gameplay now during full polish phase before optimization/QA phase. EVERYONE else is now full throttle on PU side development so now you're seeing a lightspeed leap in development speed, and getting the tech working is going to burst it even more, it's a great time to keep eyes on star cit, things are really picking up now.

[@amiththomas3884]

Imagine TM

[@Gentleman...Driver]

After more then 10 years, after promisses after promisses made, after they feature bombed the fuck out of that game, I am only believing that when I see it. Call me pessimistic or whatever you want. I dont care. I have read all the arguments, all the counter arguments... Just saying you hold your horses and dont get on that hype train. People fall for it too easy.

[@Sparkk0]

@@Gentleman...Driver who are you to tell people what to hype for or not? This shit is cool.

[@Gentleman...Driver]

@@Sparkk0 Call me Daddy.

[@Chaffee738]

If the shockingly huge 3.21.1 patch size is going to set up a trend anywhere close to its size and isn't a lucky coincidence, Star Citizen could actually grow good fast enough that even if SQ42 gets poor reception it wouldn't matter for Star Citizen.

[@obelisk2676]

Hey Ollie! I loved the videos ever since I stumbled on them. I still haven't given Star citizen a try myself, but seeing your coverage is always entertaining with your format and commentary Get well soon!

[@dainsleif3122]

I hope some developer looks at some stats, and wonder.. "How the heck did that npc, end up on a planet?? "

[@amineabdz]

Huge update, they added 2 new cool ships, tractor beams, game keeping the state of the player if it CTD, and most importantly, kidnapping.

[@Solar546]

😂

[@Frank_SB]

Very good update indeed, but fyi the CTD recovery has been in since 3.18

[@amineabdz]

@@Frank_SB Oh in that case isn't it the same system that prevents ALT F4 mid combat ?

[@GUNNER67akaKelt]

A Kel-to right outside of the Nest? Hell yeah. That's a nice QOL improvement.

[@phillbosque2183]

Dude- you got my rolling so hard. That was funny when you were using the ramp as a spatula to flip the NPC back in 😂

[@charleyboy74]

Hope your feeling better dude

[@Fallub]

That NPC in the back was the hidden gem of this. Great video.

[@sheetpostmodernist398]

Playing with the tractor beam actually reminds me of when I was playing Half Life 2 for the first time. The physics and object interaction was just too fun to play with, and I spent a full hour wandering around the train station (the very first area) picking up random objects like boots and tin cans and food boxes and tossing them at the guards to provoke reactions out of them. Being able to just yoink a hospital bed out of the hangar for your ship is amazing, and the NPC hijacking is just hilarious. XD

[@xCanadianWookie]

Casually playing with cargo containers of diamonds...

[@anthonyrobinson4732]

MN is Meganewton or 1 million newtons or 224,809 lbf

[@Accuracy158]

I like the Aesthetics of the Cutty more and the side doors are nice for loading things in space but it's kind of hard to compete with a ship that is so much newer and designed for 32 SCU containers... Until the Zeus CL comes in.

[@Kokochocomouchoco]

When I first saw the cutty…..I was like wow….it looks….idk a bit rough and slightly on the ugly side compared to the crusader ships and the gladius. But then I got the cutty red. And the size, the almost warthog look, and….the emergency lights! Omg it was just so awesome. Honestly it’s larger than it looks, and idk it just grew on me immediately.

[@Gamerfurz12]

I think from the side it looks a litle Bit Like a modern 737

[@markcritic2409]

They took my idea of little kel-to shops more often!! :)

[@jackphillips4219]

first

[@Phenotis]

Why is it that the game always seems to work for streamers but whenever regular players are playing, nothing works?

[@CrispyMuffin2]

I watched Space Tomato crash 13 times on stream last night lmao I cant blame youtubers for only including the working parts of the game Oli himself said he often replays entire sessions to get a consistent video because no one wants to watch things bug out all the time

[@charlesshackelfurd5640]

Can it be played on console?

[@qdma7814]

Yes

[@obscuredlove4043]

Can't wait for the E1 Spirit, I honestly can't, I'm dying to get passenger transport in the game.

[@PhillipLemmon]

I need a PC/laptop (with more than 1c/1t, LOL)so I can play this great game! I want to be a SC Tuber!

[@Krabelli]

Imagine people playing SC Jenga Championship with these big boxes and tractor beams :D

[@AcheliusDecimus]

You can feel the effect of better coordination in the teams. The integration of Benoit and his team has been a great thing for the project. Tractor beam on ships is huge, and the C1 can load cargo right into the bay. They did say some of the other ships are not working as intended, but it would seem the C1 is doing the best right now.

[@2727daqwid]

5:00 Apparently, it is quite a lot different from the outside too. It's longer by 1m, wider by 50cm and bunch of wing elements are different, like the tips and the entire area next to the intakes. Also, the spine and the tail are completely different. So overall siluette is similar, especially from the distance, but up close it's recognizable as a different ship I'd say.

[@D4ngrs]

I recently came back to SC (at the end of 3.22) and the moment I saw the C1... I instantly pledged it. Such an amazing starter ship! (I upgraded from the 315P, which I was using as a starter for cargo and stuff).

[@PhillipLemmon]

Is it time for IAE ALREADY?! I can't believe it,....

[@5hrimp_Nachos]

I think it’s disingenuous to say a game that has been in production for 12 years is “updating fast” 😂 At 500 million bucks you’d think they’d release it by now. Oh wait they can’t release it because it doesn’t run properly and it never will run properly. And no squadron 42 doesn’t count 😂

[@MikePhilbin1966]

So, the Replication Layer isn't active, or you would have been put back in the ship after the hospital trolley Physics Validation Error. Weird, game just robbed your ship.

[@ccarofino14]

I can’t wait for pyro. I’ll start playing again at that point

[@PeterGašperan]

I can't help, but the enviroment/landscapes reaaaaaaally do fall behind the quality of the ship designs. Quite a stark contrast. They look uninspiried, and most of all, really outdated, as if they're still stuck in 2011, like look at this 22:00

[@Kaz0w]

Sadly so disappointed. After years I installed it again and I was still running maybe 30fps. Can run ANY new game.. but this. Was really hyped with all the changes and so... I guess I shelf it again.

[@captc0ck5lap60]

F's below for our fallen lil NPC. Sorry Ollie had to crush you with his questionable-at-best precision piloting. RIP.

[@luckynumb3r195]

can you move other ships with the tractor beam too ?

[@jdns5187]

yes

[@TairnKA]

I sulfured several (I lost count) crashes to board the C1, than found my settings and bindings were wacked so I crashed three times trying to get settings and bindings right (I don't think they are). ;-)

[@JasonSmith-pn6ch]

Ya, delivery mission, grab container check, place in ship cargo check, get to drop off location and guess what can not carry container. Go to get into ship die, get on train die.... simple mechanics should not be the last mechanics to actually work. To me the game is absolutely broken after all these years in development.

[@7MPhonemicEnglish]

The brain of the NPC is not located within the NPC. If we live in a simulation, is all of our thinking done by the brains within our skulls? What connection between the simulator and our brain may exist?

[@DanielPereira-ci6oi]

Hilarious. "Oh no" after killing him, knowing damn well it would probably kill him, and then luckly had a criminal medical vessel. You Sir make a criminal look like a real gentleman.

[@Jrocc811]

I really wish I could get this game to run properly but my PC cant handle it. On top of all the server side glitches, this game is completely unplayable for me at the moment 😟

[@NightRoller1976]

@Olli43 Probably a little of topic but, where can I know your PC specs? Thanks

[@leeknowles5089]

I don’t know anything about this game but it looks like the ship was designed by bmw 😂 it just reminds me of something like the bmw m4 gt3 car lol

[@BigPinger]

Adding more content before fixing major bugs that makes the game unplayable just makes more content for the bugs to ruin.

[@Tainted-Soul]

he just wated to get home for the weekend and you kidnapped him and stranded him then squashed him with your ship..... how could you LOL

[@wolfivr8764]

so the npc wil stay in the ship forever unles u breake the ship or kick them out. also if you store the ship the npc also wil be stored XD. the best part is if someone starts shooting you in your ship. the npc wil shoot them for you. for like 3mounths ago me and some friends traid to get allot of npc into our ship and store it. but we lost them all due to 30k XD you should try to colecy as many npc into ur ship as posible XD

[@hocuspocus5481]

thanks for the video olli hope you feel better soon

[@JagHiroshi]

You open doors and cabinets and do not close them. Emotional damage!

[@CrazennCajunn]

Considering they are building all their tech themselves, its impressive how much theyve managed to create. SC is a space life sim not just a space game

[@dierkrieger]

Haven't been able to fly mine. It spawns through the world and no matter what ship I try to fly they auto explode leaving my hanger.

[@theforgedone]

Microtech gave you a free medical bed, supplies, AND a guard to keep it all secure? Very cool.

[@ArterialCanine]

You could have uncapped him by doing a takedown from behind and then tractor end him on to your stolen medical bed! 😳😂🤪

[@StortebeckerSF]

Hopped on last night for the first time in months, life just got busy. Still is, but definitely want to make some free time to hop back in the verse

[@HaechiYT]

Can you replace the tractor beam with an armed turret if needed?

[@Kenneth_Rogers]

According to CIG, no.

[@DD1-r3r]

What’s your favorite PvP ship? I love eclipse with typhoons IX!

[@rCRTEr]

Now we can play yenga for real with 32 SCU boxes and C1 tractor beam :D

[@d.b.2917]

what kind of pc spec do you need to run the game this clean. Could my 4070 ti run it as smooth as this guy?

[@The_Opinion_of_Matt]

Hey, the microtech train isn't jumping on and off the track. That is an improvement.

[@Garnnnett]

The A1 shñuld have the door in the lateral if its a vip jet ann door back only for keep some commodity

[@JynxedKoma]

Reminds me of the SR1 ship from Mass Effect!

[@sir.niklas2090]

I mean now that their engine features are done it sounds like full steam ahead on the content of the game! :D Bout time 14 years later. :'D

[@_Kaurus]

Star citizen needs the new renderer engine and ray tracing to get me exiting. that volumetric lighting they have is cancer to the fine work these artists are doing. Look a brightly lit neon expo sign that generates no light....

[@Den0101981]

impossible to play this game normal...always something worng,,,,,,f money goes te slow

When you were on your tractor beam and you saw where it said Max Force 1 MN, MN it means millinewton

This is my number 3 picks, after mercury star runner and cutlass black...

[@yoloactual6975]

wow bro, its updating at such blistering speeds... two whole new ships, and it's still not a game!

[@nickosinit]

I feel that ship needs a front door too

[@cannabeastie]

jesus christ ollie, it's a spaceship not an excavator or a bulldozer...

[@dspartridge84]

What!? they replaced a top turret with a tiny a tractor beam 😕 Thought it was a cutlass equivalent 😒

[@mitcharbiter3371]

I had closed my wallet to more ship purchases and was doing well. Then came along the A1 Spirit..... :)

[@eddyrc7]

sorry to burst your bubble guys but this guy managed to fool you again for the next 10 years with another tech demo.

Is it just me, or does this ship look like a smaller version of the Normandy from Mass Effect

I'm getting mass effect Normandy vibes at the time stamp of 14:31

[@UJV2010]

I wish I could play but all I have is a PlayStation so I can’t

[@MishaDark]

A lotta developer hands have been freed up from S42 being feature complete. Seems like updates have been hitting more frequently because of that.

[@redbelliedgaming]

This game looks amazing, ive been debating getting it myself i just haven't made up my mind yet

[@totenoboy21]

im sad i cant play as much cause im always busy because of school and stuff around the house

[@CoyoteOne]

19:55 you demonstrated exactly what I've been saying for ages about ship tractor beams being placed right dead center above the doors - how do you expect to load cargo like that? CIG - what is geometry?

[@j.d.4697]

😆 Nabbing all the stuff from the hangar...

[@Quent1nB]

Around 3.18, we managed to bring Hurston security NPCs to Grim hex, we were curious if they would attack people who have a CS. Turns out, the NPCs respected the local "laws" of GH, and didn't attack anyone, sad moment. Also, all NPCs from any station/city can not be killed: we tried everything (guns, ramming them, etc), nothing works.

[@Chilleeman]

Iae is at new Babbage again this year ?

[@haynkokanut]

Always great to see ur vids!! Have a few quick questions, that they've prolly allready answered, but where is IAE going to be located at?(microtech) or where? And what dates in November in U.S. does it start? Thanks again for your videos!! o7!! 🤙🏽 oh and also, are you looking fwd to the new Zeus MkII's coming out?

[@jimrussell4062]

This is kind of what the MSR should be, internally. Huge open space, no "crawl space", etc. It'd have amazing storage. However, I can't really use the C-1. The MSR has more range, is better shielded for sensitive cargo smuggling, and has more firepower and more shields. C-1 is just.... meh. It'll be cool if you like it for collecting but in it's size class, the Freelancer wins on all counts except "cool looks." Even the Cutlass wins over this because it has more firepower (missiles and turret) It is a shame that it's not more like a smaller MSR... or rather the MSR isn't more like this with more cargo space. I'd like something in this category that has the turrets and shielded cargo of the MSR. That would be actually useful.

[@RED--01]
