The RSI Constellation Mark V in Star Citizen is praised for its enhanced multicrew design, spacious interior, increased cargo capacity, and improved coordinated combat capabilities, though it offers similar firepower to its predecessor and shifts toward a sub-corvette role. The reviewer appreciates the inclusive early access event for community testing, sees the $300 price as reasonable, and encourages player feedback on whether this upgrade is necessary or if refining the Mark IV would have been preferable.

The video reviews the new RSI Constellation Mark V, a ship recently introduced in Star Citizen and available for a five-day rental during the RSI Discovery event. The reviewer appreciates the approach taken by Roberts Space Industries (RSI) and Cloud Imperium Games (CIG) in allowing the entire player community, not just select insiders, to test upcoming ships early through in-game events. This inclusive method fosters community involvement in the final testing and feedback process before official ship releases, which the reviewer hopes will continue with future ships.

The Constellation Mark V has undergone a notable shift in classification, moving from a large medium-sized ship to a large ship, now requiring a large hangar. This change positions it more as a sub-corvette or heavy gunship rather than a traditional gunship, similar to the Perseus. While it retains similar weaponry to the Mark IV, including four size-five laser turrets and size-three quad turrets, its combat role is optimized more for engaging fighters than capital ships. Despite these changes, the combat capabilities remain comparable to the previous generation.

A key innovation in the Mark V is its enhanced multi-crew functionality. The cockpit now accommodates four seats: pilot, co-pilot, and two gunners who control remote turrets directly from the cockpit without needing to switch to turret view. This setup allows for coordinated concentrated firepower, with up to 12 cannons targeting the same enemy, a tactic proven effective in gameplay. Additionally, the ship now pairs with RSI’s in-house Skylark snub fighter, replacing the previous Kruger snub, which provides tactical support with its laser repeaters and missile armament.

Internally, the ship is significantly more spacious and crew-friendly. It features dedicated living quarters including a bedroom with bunk beds and a living room with a pool table, alongside a much larger cargo hold capable of carrying 240 SCU compared to the Mark IV’s 96 SCU. The ship also includes engineering stations with external views, enhancing its functionality and appeal for multicrew operations. The price point has been set at $300 in store credits or $275 in fresh money, which the reviewer finds to be a reasonable and somewhat pleasant surprise compared to earlier expectations.

Overall, the reviewer sees the Constellation Mark V as a promising evolution of the platform, emphasizing its improved interior design, expanded cargo capacity, and enhanced multicrew combat capabilities. However, it does not represent a significant leap in raw firepower over its predecessor. The ship’s value will ultimately depend on its final pricing and how players perceive these improvements. The reviewer encourages community feedback on whether this new iteration is a necessary upgrade or if efforts should have focused on refining the Mark IV, while expressing hope that CIG continues to offer early access opportunities like this for future ships.
