[@viyhexe131]

I remember seeing a sleeping area in the trailer that wasn't shown here, so I'm guessing that's what's on deck B.

[@maximusmillian7989]

That's right, also the weapon rack's are there. There are some video's from people who got up to deck B by cliping trough the top of the ship, If you realy wan't to see a video i can send u a link from one ( im not going to place a link to another video in the comment's.) I asume the other room with the bed is the commander's quaters

[@bjornriedel9886]

It honestly looks like it takes a lot after the SR71 Black bird, really badass looking though.

[@Snakebloke]

"must'v taken hours to do!" Try days. Or weeks.

[@arielfetters5662]

"If you're watching this months down the line things have probably changed anyways." 3 years later... No, not really.

[@jugganaut33]

Casanova Frankenstein yeah, the biggest joke was you needed 12 to kill a hammerhead. Thank god they’ve fixed it in 3.6 to only need 4. I’m with you on the shitty optimisation. It’s effectively carrying 6 Tomahawk cruise missiles . But with 1/10th the range and payload. But all of the volume.

[@ThirsttyRecon]

6 years. She's still largely the same lol save for the upcoming gold pass update

[@mojohns44]

That WC you first came to on A deck, where you couldn't drink the water is a Decontamination station. And you probably know by now the central station with the small window is an ordinance handling station. The feel is taken from real naval vessels so familiar to me.

[@NathanielBlank]

Watched the entire video. You make virtual ship tours seem like a walk on a deserted beach in the Caribbean. I think I'll be getting myself a Retaliator!

[@PragmaticTornado]

This is one of the coolest looking ships in the game so far, in my opinion. I really like the submarine feel you get inside the ship (narrow corridors etc). The torpedofiring animation looks very nice as well. It's just a shame that it has a whopping 5 turrets, meaning you pretty much have to be 6 players in order to pilot this thing optimally. I still want one, for fun, after the game has launched.

[@swiftyproduction]

They've said that you can hire NPCs to man the guns and it is possible (I think) to replace the man operated cannons with ones controlled by the pilot.

[@PragmaticTornado]

Samuel Swift Aye, you will be able to hire NPC's to man turrets, and possibly slave link some of them to your main guns (to the pilot). Not sure how well it's going to work though, or how many NPC's you can hire. I guess we'll see. I actually tried this ship tonight. Killed a player with a torpedo. Was good fun! It can also take a lot of punishment. I'll definitely look into getting one at some point after the game has released.

[@swiftyproduction]

+Viper I really like the design and I wish I could have bought one when they were for sale, I just love the Submarine feel and the raw firepower that allows you to stand up to big ships, I'm just waiting for them to finish making it more modular and then I'll buy it as soon as it's available.

[@ericwollaston5654]

TAC, to think you did this video five years and a month ago today, at time of this post. Congrats and how things have changed in the World, and the Verse. Cheers!

[@hurrdurrimaburr]

imagine buying you first Idris and then this ship comes along before you insure it.

[@Hi-Fitxt]

Can I just say the constellation is the first ship I will buy it's a great ship it's relatively fast it kind of reminds of the millennium falcon just the way the guns are it makes me think about Star Wars and say you got attacked your friends that are chilling where the seats are and sleeping you sort of get attacked and the alarm sounds,your friends jump up the chair for the top gun comes down one friend gets in it,bottom seat comes up for the bottom seat then to friends come to the front and just in my mind the tie fighter attacking music comes on or just I put it on spottily and we have a dog fight with a hornet and this retaliatory it's gonna be so cool I know I sound like an absolute nerd but I'm so excited for this game and the amount of ships that actually will be there available

[@Will-W]

the torps were on rotary launchers, those "levers" are to release the locks on the rotors. for either manual rotation or to secure them in non combat situations?

[@Sanjarih]

Can't wait to walk around my Tali when it comes to the live server. Too lazy to download the PTU. This is my 3rd favorite looking ship, after my 350R and my Gladius. Can't wait to see what the Vanguard and the F8 lightning looks like.

[@DarthTader094]

Entrance to the bomber is too fancy. A real military bomber would have a ladder with a small door. This is a pleasure cruise compaired to the B-1. Also there would be much less room. Expect a crawspace to get around and a lot of head bumping. Great videos! Just comparing this with real military aircraft and subs.

[@hongyizhou1525]

You can actually go to deck B. Go to the top of the ship and there is a place where you can glitch in

[@theneo4567]

How to make retaliator a millennium falcon Buy the base $150 Get one cargo module $25 And one living module $25 Total 200

[@xkan395]

wait the base model is 150 usd? you sure? thats about 200 usd less than a Constallation andromeda. i was gonna get the andromeda but if this only goes for 150 usd i'm getting this.

[@theneo4567]

its 150 buuuut you have to wait for it to be on sale

[@theneo4567]

a good way to check prices is to go to ship upgrades and look at the values on the your ship category as it will have them all including those currently not for sale

[@caramelraindrops]

Let's hope it goes on sale during Citizencon :)

[@cristianangeloarriagadaveg2165]

I like the design but i would like to know if there is ability to customize it a little, for example the wings later or put laser cannons etc

[@jacoblucas4259]

It's mostly wingspan, but a B2 Spirit Bomber is almost as big as the Retaliator. It is not a small beast. So, I guess this thing isn't too far outside the realm of possibility, especially considering it's a joint Atmospheric/Spaceflight craft.

[@cyborg9351]

Great video. Nice view of the Greycat! The Retaliator was nice too.

[@phillyboy5773]

I literally love everything about this game

[@DinnerTimeFun]

That is a beautiful ship. I bought the 2 year anniversary one. I wish I had been around for LTI, but at the time I didn't have much faith in the project. There are other vids of people who went up into the second deck by crouch geometry-glitching through the second level top turret. The top has a bunch of bunks/escape pods and a weapons rack. It's a single hallway that tapers to a ducking point at the end.

[@subaluigi]

DinnerTimeFun Yeah, I also saw another video how someone cracked from above into the ship and was than on the B-Deck.

[@Shinzon23]

I see this being a "jack of all trades" ship, being that the modularity system will enable you to slide different mission modules into the bomb bay; if I could have afforded one, I would have. Also, the window over looking the rear bomb bay is likely for the bombardier, or or use as a engineers cubby. Either that or that bay IS the cargo bay, and its for the loadmaster. And the "Scissors" thing the bombs are hooked to are called "Rammers",as they throw the bomb clear before it fires off, as in space, simply opening the doors wouldn't release the bombs; no gravity, of course.

[@mikebarron8702]

Had all the same issue here when I went around mine. .... We will just have to wait until its completed I guess. Keep up the great videos!

[@LOLinDark]

Fantastic. I'm guessing the steam is for a submarine effect. It's a darker ship than most. The layout is tight like a sub. These crews will be expected to deliver critical blows to big targets and probably get out of the battle once their payload is delivered. So I think your right on the stealth as part of the whole package that will create a specific experience. I'm hoping the signature increases as it prepares to fire though. I think it would be exciting for both the Retaliator crew (who need to work quickly and professionally to get the job done) and target crew (who suddenly see a bomber light up on the radar and need to react fast). #StarCitizenBombers #RobertsSpaceIndustries

[@cameroncook5422]

Read description. Paused video. Made tea and crackers. Good idea bro. Thumbs up fo sho.

[@elfwyn8707]

I still see some oddities with the Retaliator: for one it only has 6 escape pods for 5 turret gunners plus pilot. The additonal sleeping quater might suggest room for more, but the means of escape is the limiting factor in the end. There doesn't seem to be more room for an engineer or bomb bay operator when clearly there are stations on the ship to fullfill those roles. At first I thought the second viewing window above the cockpit was supposed to be for the gunner/targeting officer, but atm it seems more like a panorama window. I think it would be a suitable position for a co-pilot. Maybe if the "Captains Quaters" bed could be used as an Escape Pod too there would be room enough for a crew member to fulfill the additional roles without limiting the ships firepower. I really like what the Retaliator has become so that's critique on a very high level. The Retaliator also shows the potential for the Constellation, when the available space is used efficiently. I really hope that we will see more partitioning and separate rooms there as well - especially considering the Phoenix.

[@PsyArkron]

35:25 Three turrets on top, not two. And in addition the two turrets below. You have a total of five. So yeah, this ship has some serious selfdefense for its size (obviously bigger ships will have even more turrets). On the other hand you see no weaponmounts for like lasers or missles so I guess there are only those huge torpedos for the pilot to shoot (since there is no copilot to do that). Which means you can and have to focus on flying and dropping those torps but you also are reliant on your gunners. If they fail to hit anything you'll die.

[@SGTDread12]

That mist must be cooling those torps and such I think, and all the computer control/fire control systems.

[@MrEsphoenix]

they could make some amazing scary scenarios in the world. imaging coming across a damaged station which isn't responding to radio, docking and exploring that station, trying to find out what happened to it

[@captainshephard1201]

He TA, I have a question on joining your organisation on Star Citizen (RSI). So, I really want to join your organisation but the birst barricade I came on to was picking a ship. I enjoy cruising with some people in a defensable ship which can carry some cargo. Which ship do you think fits the best? Thanks in "Advance" Tactical!

[@captainshephard1201]

24th word birst = first

[@rottenreason35]

This is a beautiful ship. Looking forward to seeing what or how the crew will play a part outside of the turrets. Was really wondering what the total payload would be for Bombs/Torpedo's? I would gather the role of the ship is to attack Large to Capital size ships but it would need to relay heavy on close fighter support. Willing to bet this ship will not be fast enough to dog fight or 1v1

[@anthonyrobinson4732]

Maybe in the upper deck theirs a C&C room that has a Comms/Radar guy, a Weapons guy for the Torpedoes, and the captains station.

[@jamesmcquithy2269]

this is only a guess, but i actually slowed down and thought.. and the answer for electronics over the doors would be proximity sensor to auto open door! Nice looking ship but dev is lost on ship component locations. But can make it look good.. Abandon ship order would be a death warrant to most.. bottleneck at ladder.

[@johngray3449]

James McQuithy Yeap, design is lacking thought on the function and placement of components... I mean the safety gates on the lifts are the wrong type, needs to swing up (As a boom gate) not out!

[@kingoftherobots]

Love it, a flying fortress :) Definitely not going to mess with this in the PU

[@kingoftherobots]

BTW i believe you can swap out a bomb bay for storage as there are two. I think?

[@MrEsphoenix]

couldn't resist. just got the empty version of this. holding off buying modules for now, as they've said there will be more on the way

[@Rusky231]

hey TA, small side note. Since the official release of 1.1 you can now use that ladder to get to the crew quarters on deck B. I think you should do an addendum if its not too much of a bother for you on that section.

[@hollowkid97]

If a donate to sc. Will my ship and hangar transfer to the actual game when it comes out?

[@hollowkid97]

Nigel Blackwell thank you

[@gryphon0468]

Yeah mate anything you buy with real money will go with you into the game. But in a few days you will be able to play Arena Commander and buy weapons and ships just by playing and earning Rental Credits.

[@6F5jedi]

Julon Pantlitz if you buy more ship package pledges you will get another character you can create ingame and even be able to use ingame as a npc crew member, if you got a multicrew ship that is.. if you already got a pledge you can buy and add single ships (not game pledge just ship itself) to your hangar.

[@endi3386]

Can you have a look at it now? I want to see what It looks like in a more complete state, because here lots of it is unavailable and unfinished

[@SkySweeperSyn]

17:43 that's the Maintenance room. You actually didn't even look at the control panel you'll be using in the game to operate that station. as for the window, I'm honestly not sure what that's for. I think just to make the area seem less claustrophobic maybe. 22:00 it's a Torpedo. Not sure how that's going to operate in space, but it has the same structure. Those are what you'll use to take out capital ships.

[@WingsaberE3]

I love the idea that you can walk around inside your ship

[@6F5jedi]

Elliot H will be able to walk around the ship when its moving out in space, also will be able to dock to this ship, and even do EVA outside the ship :D

[@WingsaberE3]

6F5jedi Not to mention ship to ship docking in space, so damn excited

[@commandercostas]

+Elliot H wot if:you dock a ship, then dock that ship into another ship and dock that in another ship and then dock that in a station. SHIPCEPTION

[@WingsaberE3]

Kickrider999 ... my god

[@GlowingSpamraam]

it looks incredibly good it being tanky and fast plus a powerfull armament looks incredibly promising

[@SGTDread12]

It really has a B-1B bomber look to it in my eyes. I love it!! Why can I not be rich!? Oh well, I will just work me arse off and buy it in game one day! =) Great Video Mr. Advance

[@WideLapin]

OMG so eager to see the 890 Jump!

[@hibiscuscity7570]

Sweet, I was waiting for you to look at this ship. I am also assuming that the shape and the color of the ship will make it hard to detect from a distance.

[@BigTArmada]

Bit of a dumb question, where are you out of TA? Thinking about looking for a new org

[@BigTArmada]

***** yes I know, that's the point. If they have room I'd like to ask to join

[@BigTArmada]

Thank you!

[@sannej]

Here's 500 UEC ***** to support the continuation of your channel!

[@maRomar0]

Absolutely love the retaliator!

[@FrostByteAirsoft]

So excited to finally see mine!

[@joshuagowan6880]

Maybe the ship allows so many to man it because some of it is maintenance and repair crews monitoring ship systems and internal integrity.

[@dsagent]

Does this thing carry tactical nukes?

[@tacticaladvance]

dsagentutube Big torpedos. Is being reworked to make it more modular.

[@BluWolf2012]

dsagentutube It carry dropships :D among other things :) this thing looked AWESOME in Gamescom 2015!

[@Oshaoxin]

lol if you get lost here I'd love to see your tour of the Retribution-class super-dreadnought one day, or even the Idris-M :D

[@OTtBD]

Well the humming noise made it sound like a giant stealth refrigerator

[@ChendoSmit]

Can't you just go up the elevator and up to the balcony to look at the top?

[@theanthemofcreationitself9005]

Which hangar is this

[@Zarenyth]

can i know your configuration to make this game work?

[@BluWolf2012]

Hey Tactical A. You vere pretty amazed by this ship, what was your reaction when seing the animations of this ship under the Gamescom 2015 presentation under the multicrew presentation?

[@tacticaladvance]

BluWolf2012 Looks good. Looking forward to seeing the end result and playing it (-:

[@Hunikengt]

Tactical Advance Hey Tac, I bought the base model with drop ship module and all other modules! The Demo made me consider taking one, now I'm here for your review!

[@davidkerr7]

y are there bomber in this game ? are they suppose to be bombing planets or something ? can someone plz explain the role of bomber in this game

[@BluWolf2012]

David Kerr you can have bomber fighters in a squadron, and when you are going for a big ship with your guild, you can strategly have these awesome bomber planes/ships attack with torpedoes. There will not be possible to attack planets, but space stations, and bases around the universe :)

[@2muchofyou]

so why does it make sense to call it a bomber when it fires torpedoes ? bombers drop bombs? destroyers have large guns and fighters are nimble with small cannons , torpedoes ? because they are propelled and bombs are not?

[@ph11p3540]

Man. I wish I could have donated more. That big egg layer is really bad assed.

[@6F5jedi]

Phillip Mulligan be my wingman on my retaliator and we'll blow some stuff up, pledged for the bombay version of the ship hurray :D

[@dysin_9689]

Love your videos, definitely my favorite star citizen personality. When air-crafts depressurize they get all foggy like that, I'm wondering if that is what they were going for here. (Aircraft Maintainer by trade)

[@ranchsteam287]

How much did this ship cost? And why can't I purchase this ship anymore as well as the cutlass blue?

[@6F5jedi]

***** 300 dollar, they want to balance the ships, some are more rare and are sold on events such as pax east and ends selling a couple days later, but when the game is fully live early next year you will be able to buy any ship ingame anyway for ingame cash you earn

[@2amNerd]

Have we heard anything about if this will be back up for sale anytime this year?

[@DrumDummy]

It will be back up for sale this year, since the modules will be done this year ;)

[@MonteKristof]

I guess it'll be up for sale at the anniversary sale. I dream to see hangar ready modules at least. I love flying the bomber variant, but it's not what I bought...

[@theneo4567]

+JKB Baritone don't forget the big gamescom sale this month nobody's wallets are safe

[@MonteKristof]

JDMSTER you're right! When will it be?

[@theneo4567]

+JKB Baritone the 17th is when gamescom starts so probably then

[@THEunderscoreJOKE]

Been waiting for this video for 2 days! :P Keep up the good work.

[@Bers81]

I love your reviews as always. For such a big ship it seems to be very poorly equipped for long range multicrew missions, however I am pretty sure that bloody "deck B" has much more to offer.

[@RealMysteeX]

The only way to get ships if to buy them through the website ? Sorry just saw that game and don't really know how its going to work tho so if someone can help me out, just to know if its only USD buying game thingy or if after you can buy ingame ship with any kind of game money or w/e. Thx

[@NaBeHobby]

I keep thinking someone outside my house is honking their car whenever you open a door of that ship.

[@therobin9810]

why is certain ships "not available" anymore? and how much did this ship cost?

[@DjangoLowe]

They are limited because they way to limit the number there are in the universe to fit the lore. they will all go one sale before the game is released. this ship is 275 USD, i believe.

[@fpsoftdev]

I liked the video but maybe next time go up to the top of the hangar to get a cool top down view of it.

[@blkfpt1]

Thx for the vidéo, it's always very good ! cheers from France !

[@CMDR_Birb]

If you click insert again, you can clip through everything and see all parts of the ship...

[@terrellcole7633]

Getting lost just one the Tali lol, cant wait to see your tour of the Idris....

[@blazect5655]

What graphics setting are you running on?

[@Nexus4582]

The missiles have atmospheric engines. It looks like the ship is designed for planet fighting.

[@unkn0wnurbex311]

Tea, snacks... Let's go!

[@microoo101]

I like the scratches on the glass, BUT, I hope they're just showing us what they can do in the future with the aging system. But when I buy a new Ship, I sure hope there are no scratches on the glass!! LOL. That damn Tali is gonna be worth lots of credits to have scratches on its glass. LOL.

[@mes3rd]

All the ships have the same scratch textures because the paint materials systems is not in 100%. Chris Roberts has talked about getting your ship detailed while your ship is in the hangar.

[@VonChokerWOT]

Funny thing is you're not buying a brand new ship with the Tali. You're buying a Navy Surplus ship that's seen years of service so I'd expect it to be beat up a bit.

[@justinhofer2376]

Would a r9 280x Matrix run this any good?

[@DjangoLowe]

meh, I have 2 of them and it runs ok.

[@Clint_Moto34]

I imagine doing a death sentence in that Bomb Bay like they do in Battlestar :D Haha my mind ^^

[@abosado21]

It's funny and sad to see our old spectations

[@AppiusOS]

Damn... i didnt buy the retaliator cause i thought the totpedos were swapped out for cargo bays in the civilian version... but there they are :/

[@6F5jedi]

AppiusOS there will be refitted cargo retaliators and the rare torpedo bay retaliators, at pax east they sold first the cargo type, a couple days later the torpedo bay ones, anyway when the game is out you will be able to refit the tali for torpedo bays if you can get enough cash i think

[@lastkiller97]

kinda looks like a futuristic verson of the sr-71 blakcbird

[@uthertheking]

Just imagine if it was refitted for civilian transport. It could be a Greyhound bus.

[@Zeus-se9pv]

How much turrets does is have in total?

[@Hanfgurkenhasser]

Zeus54321 5.

[@mikos321]

all i wan't for christmas is a retaliator !

[@cdl6691]

My favourite ATM

[@Dhieen]

i wanted to see the landing gear animation

[@theCrashAcademy]

Hey there! Nice Video... as always! If you would like to have a look at the upper deck and don't mind that we do our videos in german, take a look here kzbin.info/www/bejne/oX6qlWaNYtqIjqsm59s We found a way through the Hull but we seriously hope that the ladder will be functional soon... ^^ See you on the flightdeck!

[@commanderdon4300]

CrashAcademy Yes this seems to show that there are 8 sleeping pods for the crew up there, so I agree that it makes the room downstairs the captains quarters.

[@WarriorMasterTrainer]

Won't bombing in space be a bit... iffy?

[@ironsymphony322]

Monachus Bibe It's not literally bombing like you would expect from a bomber in atmosphere. A bomber in space is just a bigger ship that has a lot more missiles than a regular ship, but it's not as maneuverable.

[@WarriorMasterTrainer]

V.C. Venezia Your profile picture triumphs.

[@6F5jedi]

Monachus Bibe the torpedoes will sing in space thats for sure

[@ironsymphony322]

Monachus Bibe Why, thank you.

[@armorgiraffe]

V.C. Venezia Super Stalin Brothers!

[@Raz0rking]

as cool as it is, and despite getting one, i want a clean shiny new ship >_

[@mikos321]

as of the modular system with this ship, I hope, I beg for a snubfighter dock !!!

[@7LemonFire11]

"The engine isn't on so how can there be any noise?" He says in a well lit passage way...

[@Memeguppy]

awsome ship

[@SGTDread12]

You locker is on Deck A. You have locker number 3. LOL All Decks are Deck A and there are four lockers with the number 3!

[@gustavstjarna844]

dude, when this game comes out, i wont come out. litterally.

[@aishwarychatterjee]

Man bro u r no.1 maximum pro max

[@captt2779]

I love how you didn't notice the control surfaces on the wings. Those are for atmospheric use. FORESHADOWING!

[@Kyezie131]

How much was this ship?

[@6F5jedi]

Kyezie131 300 dollars if you bhought the shippack game pledge, but if you bhought the single ship only(not the game only the ship) it was 200+ dollars

[@Raidenvaga]

Kinda in away..... Looks like a space age F-14 Tomcat

[@jauntyjerry2664]

I know I'm being "that guy" but how does buying ships work. I went to star citizen online and everything costs real money. Do you have to pay money for your first ship and from that first ship gain money through your "job?" I don't know please don't rage on me I realize that I am indeed being "that guy."

[@GuitaristOfLife]

The actual game is not out yet. You can currently pledge real money to help the development of the game. As a 'thank you', you will receive a ship and digital download of the game when it releases. Depending on how much you spend, you can also receive access to the beta and many other cool things. All this starts at $30. I think you can also just buy access to Arena Commander for $5, but this does not include the game when it releases and i dont think it includes the persistent universe beta either. Theres terabytes of information out there explaining everything about the game, browse the RSI website more and checkout their youtube page.

[@matthewbadger8685]

Jeremiah Gaulke the cheapest ship is $30 and it comes with the game once bought. (essentially the cost of any other game) from there you can progress in the game and earn in came cash which allows you to get better ships.

[@Maverick966]

Tactical not listen DJWolves, you do videos describing the details of the ships.

[@bublebuble2004]

can we bye this now TA ????

[@kingoftherobots]

Nope, was in sale a week ago. It will come back later in sale fo sho

[@hongyizhou1525]

Nice!

[@jfrudge3732]

I present to you: GTA Online in space, but better!

[@evobsm2328]

how many € does this ship costs

[@DrumDummy]

150€ without any modules, cargobay 25€ each, dropship & bomber modules 75€, living room module 25€.
