During a recent PTU test run in Star Citizen, players experienced a new Dynamic event in the Stanton system involving Xeno threats. Crews prepared by crewing a Redeemer and completing bunker missions before engaging in space combat missions, encountering challenges and obstacles along the way.
In a recent PTU test run of a new Dynamic event in Star Citizen, players were surprised by a Xeno presence in the Stanton system. The event had two phases available from the outset, with the second phase involving engaging Xeno threat ships. Players prepared by crewing a Redeemer and bringing an Urer along to help with infiltrating bunker missions. The first mission took place on Lria, with improvements such as correct attribution of warning messages to Xeno threats.
The bunker mission involved hacking a server room, with AI reactions being unresponsive at times. The mission progressed in a timely manner, but the AI behavior was noted to be lacking compared to previous missions. Despite some dull moments, the hacking missions could be intense when facing active AI enemies. The bunker mission was completed successfully, leading the crew to the next phase of the event.
The crew then embarked on space combat missions, starting with an incursion on Magna where they encountered Xeno threat ships in an asteroid cluster. The mission involved clearing the area of Xeno ships with the help of other players, creating a community feel. Despite some obstacles like invisible asteroids, the crew managed to complete the mission successfully. They then traveled to Everest Harbor to switch to a more capable ship, the Redeemer, equipped with powerful weapons.
The crew engaged in multiple space battles during the event, facing intense combat scenarios and collisions with enemy ships. The Redeemer proved to be a suitable choice for the missions, and the crew’s confidence in the ship grew as they progressed. The event featured a mix of combat challenges, hacking missions, and community engagement, making it a promising experience for players. The crew completed stage two of the event, finding it more engaging and dynamic compared to the first stage. Overall, the event showcased the potential for exciting and cooperative gameplay in Star Citizen, leaving players eager to explore the remaining stages when the event goes live.
