“A while back I said that the SRV was the ship that MAY change EVRYTHING. In this video I study whether that is really the case.”
In this video, Daniel Raymond discusses the potential impact of the SRV (Ship-to-Ship Recovery Vehicle) in Star Citizen. He initially believed that the SRV had the potential to be a game-changing ship, with the ability to transform mining, salvage, piracy, and trading. However, upon testing the SRV in the game, he found that some of its promised functionalities were not yet implemented. For example, the SRV was unable to transport minable asteroids, and towing illegal salvage missions resulted in receiving a crime stat. Despite these setbacks, Raymond still believes that the SRV offers benefits for centralized salvage operations, as it allows for easier towing of disabled ships. He also speculates on the potential design and functionality of future repair stations within space docks. Overall, while the SRV has not fully changed the game yet, it still has the potential to revolutionize salvage operations.
The video also mentions ongoing giveaways for Star Citizen ships, with viewers having the chance to win either a Galaxy, a Big Box Bar Mazar, or $100 in Steam store credit. To participate, viewers can either be a member or subscribe, and comment with the secret word, which is not mentioned in the transcription.
In conclusion, while the SRV in Star Citizen has not yet lived up to its full potential, it still has the ability to greatly impact salvage operations within the game. Despite some of the promised features not yet being implemented, the SRV allows for centralized salvage and recovery, making it easier to tow disabled ships for repairs. The video also touches on potential future improvements, such as dedicated repair stations within space docks. Overall, although the SRV has not changed everything in the game, it has the potential to significantly transform salvage gameplay.
