Crusader Spirit C1 First Gameplay & Impressions with Vehicle Tractor Beams

The gameplay video showcases the Crusader Spirit C1 ship in action, focusing on its tractor beam capabilities. The player explores the UI overlay, experiments with moving objects, and successfully steals a larger vehicle, highlighting the ship’s potential for transportation and manipulation tasks.

In a gameplay video of Crusader Spirit C1, the player takes the ship to a new location on Huren to test out its capabilities. The music in the background fits the ship’s vibe as they explore the features. They activate the power and head to the turret, where they discover the new overlay for the tractor beams’ User Interface (UI). The UI color codes the different functions, and it displays useful information like the reason for not being able to interact with certain objects.

The player experiments with moving objects using the tractor beam and finds that it has a significant range. They try to grab a vehicle, but it seems to be too heavy or shielded, indicating that the tractor beam has its limitations. They proceed to load small vehicles onto the ship, finding that they can fit up to seven small vehicles comfortably, making the Crusader Spirit C1 a suitable option for transportation missions.

The player’s interest then shifts to a larger vehicle called the Mule. They discuss how the Mule has strengths and weaknesses compared to another ship called the Cutlass. Despite some downsides, such as less defensibility and different components, the player considers the Crusader Spirit C1 competitive due to its cargo-focused design, a range of 40 meters, room for a two-person crew, and the effectiveness of the tractor beam.

Excited by the possibilities, the player decides to steal the Mule using the tractor beam. They successfully exfiltrate the vehicle without needing to land or touch the ground. This showcases the power and usefulness of the tractor beam, and the player expresses enthusiasm for the ship’s potential in future activities.

Overall, the video provides a comprehensive demonstration of the Crusader Spirit C1’s gameplay and highlights its capabilities with the tractor beam, including the ability to transport and manipulate objects effectively.
