Q&A: Crusader Hercules Starlifter

Following the launch of the Hercules from Crusader Industries, we took your community-voted questions to our designers to give you more information on the recently unveiled tactical starlifter.

If you haven’t watched our recent Ship Shape on the Hercules, you can do so here. Then, on Reverse the Verse, Matt Sherman and Corentin Billemont answered questions about the Hercules live on Twitch.

Special thanks to Corentin Billemont and Todd Papy for answering your top-voted questions.

How can an outpost defend itself against a bombing from a Hercules A2?

Players can protect themselves from air attacks by setting up anti-air defenses. As far as destroying an outpost goes, that’s something we’re looking into, along with the ramifications it would have on the law system.

50 years is a major milestone, traditionally commemorated by making adventurous, brave, and occasionally reckless decisions. Choosing to try new experiences, opening life’s throttle and seeing where it takes us.

Some may refer to this as a mid-life crisis, but here at MISC we embrace it as an expression of individuality and vitality.

In 2898 the New Horizon Speedway opened on Green, ushering in what many consider the modern era of the Murray Cup. That same year, a MISC ship set a time on the new course that is yet to be bested. That ship, a Daedalus mkVIII, didn’t end up bringing the cup home for MISC but it forever associated the company with star racing, and paved the way for Trevor Yuman’s eventual victory in the now-iconic Razor.

Five decades later, MISC is still pushing the boundaries of innovation. As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of that record run on the New Horizon, MISC

“The more things change, the more they stay the same.”

This epigram has been around for centuries, but it still rings true today. Despite the technological advances that have fueled Humanity’s expansion into the stars, a person swiping their mobi on a Moscow street corner right now isn’t much different to someone standing there hundreds of years earlier. Both are bones and blood, sinew and sweat.

Certain inalienable truths can’t be denied. Join me, Parker Terrell, on this journey to uncover the Plain Truth.

Our starting epigram relates to more than just people. It also applies to the UEE Government. Leaders and laws may change, but it remains the same – crippled by corruption that’s rotten it to the core.

Look no further than the Oso system for proof. Oso II is teeming with unusual and unique lifeforms that the UEE swore to protect from human intervention under the Fair

Debris floats in space. Drifting closer, we see that the wreckage contains the remains from dozens of destroyed ships.

NARRATOR: He thought the battle was over.

A blinding spotlight sweeps through the scene, hunting …. searching. A moment later we see the source — a FRIGATE bristling with guns.

NARRATOR: He thought he was safe.

We push in towards one of the frigate’s turrets. A GUNNER is seated there, but they are not our destination. We move past them, and wind our way through the halls of the ship.

NARRATOR: But he wasn’t counting on a hunger this big. A craving this massive.

We arrive at the mess hall to find a crewman in a Navy-esque jumpsuit, DIETRICK, sitting at a table looking awfully hungry.

NARRATOR: All hands. Prepare to launch Torpedo Burrito’s newest devastating flavor-class.

Long-range death just got a cosmetic upgrade. Survey the way ahead and clear it of every conceivable danger with this limited Voyager edition Klaus & Werner Arrowhead sniper rifle. The fiberglass composite body combines portability with sophistication with a checkered metallic finish, and the high-powered scope is detailed with the classic blue and orange of the ICC Stellar Surveyors. The only downside is that the Arrowhead’s vaunted range means your enemies won’t get the chance to lay their eyes on the beautiful finish, as they’ll be too busy taking energy bolts to the face.

Hello everyone,

Last week the team published the Monthly Studio Report for May, bringing you insight into what all of our studios have been working on. Check it out if you haven’t yet to get yourself up to speed on new systems, ships and features for 3.2 and beyond.

Friday saw the Roadmap updated, where Network Bind Culling and FPS Combat AI moved from the 3.2 column to 3.3, meaning they’ll be added to the game with our Q3 Update. Check our latest Reverse the Verse show, available on YouTube, where Jared and Tyler explain why the decision was made to defer those aspects of 3.2 to 3.3.

This week marks the end of the Hercules promotion. There’s almost nothing this family of ships hasn’t faced, and no situation they can’t handle. The Crusader Industries Hercules Starlifter will be available in the pledge store until Wednesday, June 13 at 11:59pm PDT.
