In this video, the Eradicator discusses the potential destruction of Port Olisar in Star Citizen 4.0. However, he believes that Port Olisar will not be blown up, but rather replaced by a new and improved orbital station located slightly above its current position, as it is considered a legacy asset and the developers are unlikely to spend resources on a one-time event.
In this video, the Eradicator discusses the potential destruction of Port Olisar in Star Citizen 4.0. He explains that Port Olisar is considered a legacy asset, which means it was created using older technologies and is not up to current standards in terms of functionality, level of detail, and optimization. It is speculated that Port Olisar will be replaced by a larger and more advanced orbital station similar to those found around other planets in the Stanton system.
However, there is a problem with Port Olisar as it orbits Crusader, a gas giant planet. Currently, Star Citizen does not have gas giant planets or the necessary technology to navigate their atmospheres. This technology is slated for release in Star Citizen 4.0. The Eradicator speculates that the new Port Olisar replacement will need to be equipped with thrusters to counter the dragging effects of Crusader’s atmosphere and may require large amounts of fuel or possibly scoop it from the planet’s atmosphere.
The Eradicator believes that Port Olisar will not be blown up but rather replaced by a new asset that will be relocated a few kilometers above its current position. He argues that Cloud Imperium, the developers of Star Citizen, are unlikely to spend significant resources on a one-time event like blowing up Port Olisar, especially when there are many other improvements to be made to the game. The Eradicator believes that the cryptic messages heard in the game are part of a larger event involving the entire Stanton system, not just Port Olisar.
He suggests that the event may involve tougher AI, specific bounty hunting missions, and special delivery missions for criminal players. These changes would not require much time to implement and could potentially last for a month or even a quarter. The Eradicator argues that having a battle at Port Olisar that only happens once at a specific time would exclude players who are unable to join the game during that time, further supporting his belief that blowing up Port Olisar is not a good idea.
In conclusion, the Eradicator does not believe that Port Olisar will be blown up in Star Citizen 4.0. Instead, he predicts that it will be replaced by a new station located a few kilometers above its current position. He argues that focusing on improving the overall gameplay experience would be a better use of resources for Cloud Imperium, and suggests that the cryptic messages heard in the game are part of a larger event involving the entire Stanton system.
