The creator revisits the Star Citizen Prowler Asperia, highlighting its unique alien design, stealth features, and recent bug issues, while expressing enthusiasm for a new scout variant hinted at in a recent preview. He discusses the potential impact of this variant on CCU options, his interest in upgrading to a more practical scout role, and encourages viewers to share their plans regarding the ship.
In the video, the creator revisits the Star Citizen Prowler Asperia, a unique alien-inspired drop ship that he hadn’t used in about three years. He expresses fondness for the ship’s design and sound, recalling why he purchased it initially, despite its high cost of around $400. The ship’s distinctive Tavarian, alien aesthetic and stealth features, such as anti-gravity pods that allow it to skim surfaces, make it stand out. He notes that the ship has been plagued with bugs, like issues with the co-pilot seat preventing quantum travel, but expects these to be fixed soon.
The creator demonstrates the ship’s interior and exterior, highlighting its features like the co-pilot seat, jump seats, and onboard weapon slots. He appreciates the design choices, including the ship’s stealth capabilities and the air shields that prevent venting when the back is open. He mentions recent changes to the ship’s internal layout, such as moved components, and discusses the ship’s purpose as a stealthy drop ship, though he admits he hasn’t used drop ships extensively in gameplay due to practical security concerns.
He then discusses the sneak peek of a new variant of the Prowler, which shows a section in orange with a tagline “I have my eyes on you,” suggesting a recon or scout role. The creator speculates that this variant will likely be a heavy recon ship, possibly replacing the top turret with sensors or radar modules. He is excited about the potential for this variant, especially if it can be upgraded into a heavy scout, which appeals to him more than the standard drop ship role.
The creator considers the implications of the new variant for CCU (Cross-Chain Upgrade) options, warning that if the scout version is cheaper, it might not be CCU-able into the larger ship, which could influence players’ upgrade decisions. He expresses interest in the stealthy scout concept, especially if the ship can be modified internally to include beds or lookout points. He also looks forward to the upcoming Alien Week, hoping to see more details and possibly secure a CCU for the new variant.
In conclusion, the creator shares his enthusiasm for the Prowler’s design and potential variants, emphasizing his desire to upgrade into a more practical scout ship while still appreciating the current hull. He encourages viewers to share their thoughts on whether they will hold onto their Prowler or upgrade to the new variant. He ends with a call to action for viewers to like and subscribe, expressing his excitement for future developments in the game and the new ship variants.
