The video reviews Day 2 of Invictus 2955, highlighting the limited Warbond CCU offerings, particularly the Nautilus, and expressing disappointment over the lack of new ships and sales variety. The host also shares his impressions of the MTC vehicle, noting its practicality issues due to size, and reflects on the event’s overall sparse nature compared to previous years, anticipating more significant sales at the upcoming IAE.
The video provides a detailed update on the second day of Invictus 2955, focusing primarily on the Warbond CCU sales, which remain quite limited with only one ship available—the Nautilus. The host discusses the pricing and potential upgrade options, highlighting the best choices like the Perseus and Merchantmen, and expressing skepticism about the utility of ships like the Carrick and Orion in the current game context. He emphasizes that the Nautilus’s role remains unclear, speculating it could be used for mine-laying or defensive purposes, but notes that its practical application in the game remains uncertain even years after release.
Throughout the video, the host expresses disappointment over the lack of new Warbond CCUs and the limited variety of sales, comparing this to previous Invictus events which traditionally featured more substantial offerings. He notes that the only current game packs available are for the Pisces and Titan, with no new standalone ships or vehicle kits introduced. The absence of additional Warbond options and the limited selection of ship kits, especially for the Pisces, contribute to his overall feeling of the event being lackluster and underwhelming.
The host also shares his impressions of the MTC vehicle, which he tested early in the morning. He praises its functionality, turret control, and handling but laments its size, specifically its width, which prevents it from fitting into his preferred daily driver ships like the C1 or Cuddy Black. Despite its compact design, the vehicle is too wide for certain ships’ rear entrances, leading to frustration and disappointment. He suggests that if the vehicle were a foot narrower, it would be more practical for his gameplay and daily use.
In the concluding part, the host reflects on the overall state of Invictus 2955, noting that this event is unusually sparse compared to previous years. He speculates that the limited Warbond offerings might indicate a shift away from traditional sales strategies, possibly due to the focus on other high-profile ships like the Idris, Javelins, and upcoming concept ships. He also mentions that the next major sales event, IAE, is expected to be more significant, and he is curious about how the sales figures will compare, especially given the limited Warbond options during Invictus.
Finally, the host discusses the broader context of the event’s sales, suggesting that the company may be relying on popular ships and vehicle kits like the MTC and exo-frames to reach their fundraising goals. He notes that while the MTC is a good vehicle, its size limits its usability for some players, but it will likely sell well due to its appeal. Overall, he perceives the event as underwhelming but acknowledges the ongoing sales of high-profile ships and the potential for future big-ticket items to boost revenue. The video ends with a sense of curiosity about the future of the game’s sales and the company’s strategy moving forward.
