In this video, the hosts discuss the X1 series of bikes in Star Citizen and provide a buyer’s guide for potential purchasers. The hosts mention that the X1 bikes have been highly anticipated for six years, but ultimately advise against buying them due to various reasons. They mention that the bikes have some interesting details, such as the velocity model having cool fins and a different engine layout for a racing aesthetic. They also talk about the different weapon options for each bike, with the force model having a Bulldog repeater and the X1 model having a laser cannon. They express their confusion about the choice of a slow-firing cannon on a vehicle and suggest that distortion repeaters might be a better option.
The hosts discuss the design of the X1 bikes, mentioning that they have a sleek and attractive look, reminiscent of the hover bike from the movie Oblivion. They express their disappointment that the bikes do not have closed cabs, which would have provided protection from adverse environments. They also mention the personal storage available on the bikes, although it is small. The hosts discuss the components of the bikes, noting that all three models have the same size zero components except for the force model, which has an additional shield. They also mention that the bikes can be stored in the back of a Pisces ship.
The hosts acknowledge that the X1 bikes may not be a priority purchase for players, as they can be earned in-game relatively easily. They suggest that players who are trying to stretch their in-game currency should focus on buying bigger ticket items instead. They mention that the bikes are cheap to recall to a location and can be used to increase walking speed. The hosts also speculate on the future use of land vehicles in the game and discuss the potential value of distortion repeaters on bikes for disabling enemy vehicles.
In conclusion, the hosts provide an overview of the X1 series bikes in Star Citizen, highlighting their design, components, and potential uses. They advise against purchasing the bikes and suggest that they may be more of a novelty or a way to support the game financially. They encourage viewers to share their thoughts on the bikes and discuss topics such as the value of the cannon, the potential use of distortion repeaters, and any pictures of the Scarlet skin for the bikes.
