In the video, the presenter discusses the recent changes to the Origin 400i ship in Star Citizen, specifically focusing on the nerf it received in patch 3.24.2. The ship has been downgraded from three coolers and three power plants to just one cooler and one power plant. The presenter has kept the ship’s stock configuration, aside from minor changes in paint and weapons, and notes a bug preventing them from flying out of the hangar. This video serves as a brief overview of the ship’s new features and issues.

Upon entering the cockpit, the presenter highlights the newly designed multi-function displays (MFDs), which are easy to read. They set their viewing point to 110 degrees to accommodate the ship’s wide display. The presenter compares the 400i to the Zeus, noting similarities in design and purpose, as both ships are intended for exploration. However, they express frustration with a lighting bug that makes the interior appear overly dark, suggesting that the servers are not performing well due to ongoing testing by the developers.

As they explore the ship, the presenter admires the elegant design and details, particularly in the kitchen and captain’s quarters. They point out a notable design flaw with the high windows, which obstruct the view outside. The video also highlights the distinct sleeping arrangements for the captain and crew, emphasizing the luxury of the 400i compared to the more budget-friendly Zeus. The presenter discovers a hidden feature in the ship’s design, such as the retractable glass in the suit locker area, which adds to the ship’s functionality.

The video also addresses issues with the ship’s lower levels, where the elevator controls are not displaying properly. However, visibility through the ship has improved. The presenter notes some bugs in the hangar area, which affect the overall experience. Despite these issues, they appreciate the luxury features of the 400i, including the separate garage for a bike and the improved docking bay design compared to the Zeus.

In the final segment, the presenter discusses the new power management system and the implications of the nerf on the ship’s performance. They express disappointment over the loss of power plants and coolers, which diminishes the ship’s competitive edge, especially against the Zeus. The video concludes with the presenter inviting viewers to share their thoughts in the comments and encouraging subscriptions, as they faced numerous challenges while creating the video due to server issues.
