In this video, the content creator focuses on the new Salvage mechanics in Star Citizen version 3.22 and demonstrates how to make money using the Reclaimer ship. The video begins with the creator explaining how they acquired the Reclaimer by earning credits through missions, specifically targeting the Drake Cutlass Black and RSI Constellation Andromeda ships. They had to server hop to find these missions, eventually accumulating enough credits to purchase the Reclaimer for 15.1 million credits.
Next, the content creator takes the Reclaimer out for a spin and showcases its improved mechanics for salvaging. They fly the ship out of the atmosphere and remark on how much easier it is to maneuver compared to previous versions. They then proceed to a location called Crusader, where they engage in a Hammerhead cleanup mission. Using the Reclaimer’s claw, they fracture and disintegrate the Hammerhead ship, demonstrating the new salvaging capabilities.
After successfully salvaging the Hammerhead, the content creator explains that it is more profitable to use the mulched material instead of the recycled material composite (RMC) due to current market conditions. They then proceed to move the salvaged material into the Reclaimer’s cargo hold using auto eject and tractor guns. The process is shown, with the creator successfully maneuvering the large salvaged boxes into the cargo hold.
Finally, the content creator travels to Orison to sell the salvaged material. They land the Reclaimer, navigate to the admin office, and sell the salvaged construction materials. The earnings from the sale are substantial, with the creator making around 1.2-1.3 million credits from salvaging a single Hammerhead ship. They note that while some may consider this amount of money ridiculous, it is a result of the Reclaimer finally having its gameplay loop fully implemented.
In conclusion, the video showcases the new Salvage mechanics in Star Citizen 3.22 and demonstrates how to make money using the Reclaimer ship. The content creator shares their experience of acquiring the Reclaimer, flying it, and successfully salvaging a Hammerhead ship. They also provide insights into the current market conditions and the profitability of using mulched material for sale. The video ends with the creator expressing their holiday wishes and hopes for a better year ahead.
