This was awesome!! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. The details in this game are one of its highlights. Also, stay away from the Polaris at this time if you don't want to be greatly disappointed as I feel it was rushed out the door before getting this kind of work on its interior, mainly. It's missing labels, lighting, and... well, a lot. Hopefully they'll get around to finishing it one day. Cheers!
thank you so much! I dont plan to do a ship as large as the Polaris anytime soon, I don't feel it was rushed but it does need a few more passes. I have been inside and it does have the ben curtis sticker but last I checked it was a low-res sticker. Aside from the low-res sticker, in lore the polaris was a rushed contract ship for the military which does explain some of its feeling
This is what I did when I get into a new ship, but I was afraid it would took too long and too boring to do a video for it. However, you presenting it perfectly with so many interesting points. You've gain a sub!
Great work Toast! Incredible I never noticed the door manual release animations or the lighting details on soft/task lighting. Glad you picked the ES, its a truly standout of new crop of RSI Ships.
I love your very detailed take! CIG is getting much better with their designs. I sincerly hope that they go over all past ships and add these kinds of details (only after 1.0 though).
Thank you very much! It's fun to see the little details that would otherwise normally go missed. CIG is indeed getting better with their ship designs each one is a little better than the last
@asideoftoastgames RSI does put a lot of work and details into their ships. I'm looking forward to more ships getting their gold standard pass and possible design updates. Especially with the introduction of life support. I think that ships need to have an airlock system. The Intrepid with the "sealed" cargo bays, could allow entrance and exit without having to vent a large amount of atmosphere.
@@SOGBulldog live support is going to be a really fun gameplay element to play around with. oooh that's a very good point! hadn't thought about using them as mini airlocks!
Nice work! I never really noticed these details up close but I know my brain picks up on all those lines to give it an authentic feel. Thanks for your input I look forward to seeing more of your videos!
I own the Zeus CL and it is my favorite ship. I did melt for a Starlancer and I couldn't stop thinking about it so I bought it again. It's my daily driver and I only break out the Starlancer if I have really big cargo runs to do.
honestly, thats how I feel about my MSR, love the ship, its my favorite but just too large for most single flying, so the little cutter has been my daily for the small missions.
This is a very well made review; long, but nice with so many details [I, as a RSI Zeus ES owner appreciate very much]. For future patches, these ship-builders (like RSI, Crusader, Mirai) could consult this lovely-souding lady [don't know her name] BEFORE releasing their newest ships. Then, they could flaunt another label, like "CERTIFIED and APPROVED by {"A Side of Toast Games"}"(?)
Thank you so much! I wish I could actually get to review ships before release! If I had the ability to be part of a review team that would be so awesome!!!! I go by Toast if ya like or Toasty. My real name is Ash ^_^
Really happy you were able to find good information from the videos ^_^ The details they put into there ship really shows how much they care in their designs.
CIG need to notice your channel. Those ships need to be more practical than good looking, because we will be playing in them for many hours. I stopped watching Morphologis' ship review videos years ago, because he puts good looks and disregards practical use. Your review is practical, thank you! Please keep up the good work! CIG has gotten much better lately but there still is rom for improvement. I wish they hired or consulted people like us early in the ship design. It would save so many work hours. I'm also a designer but I work in the EU on commercial, private and military aircraft interiors.
thank you for your kind words ^_^ I will do my best to keep my reviews as practical as possible. if CIG notices that would be nice but that on their time, I cant force them to do anything. oh sweet! than you would have an entirely unique perspective than I would coming from automotive! was there anything special that sticks out in your mind they did right or could have done better?
I likey this style of video from you so thats a subscribe but maybe please do also the refineries and also take avacation arond Orison. The platforms are also very intricate. See you in the ver o7
Thank you for the kind words. Doing a platform or refinary is way outside my comfort and knowledge zone at the moment, but perhaps one day I'll tackle one!
Great video, love your perspective. CIG adds all that detail, but we never see water storage or grey water. Any boater or RV owner knows how much room they take, especially for long term travel. We don't even see the space for fuel storage.
thats a good point, ive never worked on an RV before so the waste water tanks didn't even come up. perhaps the ships have water recyclers? in this ship the fuel tank is behind the glass on the other side of the kitchen, I know the carrak also has fuel tanks but I'm not sure if I've seen them on others 🤔
Fantastic review! I noticed the nav lights as well, and though I would still prefer they reflect current usage, I can see how it would be less effective in a ship that spends the majority of its time in open space. If you approach the ship and you are inverted in relation to its orientation the lights would indicate the ship is moving in the opposite direction.
Even in space I can see proper nav lights being a good immersion element to gameplay. The biggest downside to my point is when targeting a ship it shows it's orientation making nav lights useless. I did slightly miss speak in my video. On boats the nav light is white on the rear. On airplanes it's on the belly. I'd understand making a new color for spaceships as they have headlights.... So maybe purple or blue?
the drastic difference from the Connstelation series of ships and their einteriors to the Zeus is almost like it's an entirely different manufacturer. i do understand they were designed like, 10 years apart though and the ships may also serve different purposes and such have different interiors to match but with crusaders and Drake ships, they still ahve a pretty consistent flow that applies to all the ships, i feel. not so with the Connie vs other RSI ships.
this is specifically why i made the comment about feeling like this ship has a new design bible from past RSI ships. its feel is way to different for us to believe it came from the same company unless it was updated with the other brands when the design team updated there internal rules I wanna say 6 months to a year ago
Nice Idea to check shipdesign from your perspective. I've learned a lot. It would be great if you do it for other ships/manufactors to. (Starlancer for example or some drake ships) I do like to see more videos from you. Tanks for UA-cam effords.
They will be coming! The next ship I'd like to do is the Guardian once 4.0 is officially out. Your not the first to request the Starlancer, if I can get access to one I can make a review. I've also thought about the Terrapin as it was recently brought up to gold standard for Squadron. But yes so many more reviews to come!!!!
A great review. Better than those of Morphologist (his seem more rehearsed, and less sincere). I've pledged for the Galaxy and Railen, so I can't wait to see the detail they put into those ships.
Thank you for the kind words! The first draft was more rehearsed but felt it.... Just wasn't right. This looser style I think shows more feeling. The Galaxy and railen will be really cool ships to review. Seems the design team puts a little more detail in with every ship, each one gets more exciting!
I thought it was a great review. Not harsh at all. I did have one question on the latch you talked about at 3:55. I know that in plumbing, a lever valve on a pipe in the US is open when it is in-line with the pipe and off when it is turned perpendicular, but in the UK it's the opposite ... perpendicular is on and in-line is off. Could something like this just be a similar design language difference?
Thank you so much! Really happy you liked it When I made the comment I was not thinking of piping but you are correct. When their inline it's open. I don't think that was the case for this though at the same dial is on the opposite side of the panel making it appear as it's a locking latch, at least that's how I see it. Could be completly wrong. Perhaps someday the gold standard will be so high we can take these panels off and see what's behind them ^_^
RSI doesn’t care about OSHA, NTSB, or FAA regulations from 900 years in the past. Stickers and labels are immersive and accurate enough as is. I think the team did a great job on that front. Design language, material usage, space usage and ergonomics are far more interesting. IMO, as a non-engineer, is this is one of the better designed ships… maybe even top 10.
It is a very well designed ship. It's hard to talk of design language when it's so different from the rsi preexisting design language. Because of this had to treat it as a standalone. As if the design Bible was updated for this ship
I have to ask, as a 2020 Camaro SS owner, what is the purpose of the back seat? And who's idea was it to make the right side blind spot so annoying? Otherwise love my car and yes I totally screwed myself on warranty after modifying my car and yes I already had to rebuild the engine once, so much for crankshafts breaking under 460rwhp for no apparent reason along with 2 pistons and 2 rods with nothing but CAI, E85, and headers. Not a defect at all! *cough* yes it is and GM knows it. Either way rebuilt my engine with better than factory after market internals and will probably end up doing it again when something else that isn't supposed to break breaks.
Different regulations come into play when a car has technically 4 seats vs 2. Same thing for a 2 door vs 4 door. Realistically those back seats were probably designed with pets or young children in mind or as a place for groceries. As for the rear pillars, that's more tricky. As safety regulations increase new measures need to be meet and in return the pillars get thicker to support a heavier vehicle incase of a rollover. The rear pillars, in the auto world known as most commonly the c pillars. They go a, b, c, d with a being the ones at the windshield. The c and/or d pillars become the thickest as visiblity for the driver out front is most important. Pillars a and b will still get thicker over time too to help with weight but their thickness is more to do with integrated airbags. Once you get into the c and d pillar areas the airbags are often built into the headliner. Though more and more im seeing the Airbags put in the headliner starting right after the a pillar before b. Last vehicle I worked on this year only had an airbag in the a pillar and the rest along the sides were in the headliner, not counting the one in the steering wheel and dash for the passenger. As for the engine issues I'm sorry I can't give any explanation 😔 That's outside my knowledge but perhaps an engineer can chime in and provide something Hope you have a happy holiday!
@@asideoftoastgames Awesome, ty for the explanation. Was not really expecting one! I'd have a few words with those engineers personally, considering 2 Pro shops were shocked the crankshaft cracked. But it is what it is. Still love the car, but hate GM for stopping production of them. Now Ford is price gouging their slower cars. Who wants a slower blue oval anyways? 🤣
Yeah I didn't find anything in the real world either, though I think it shares some jumber sequences with the Ben Curtis sticker numbers so there could be a lore thing to it..... Or it all means nothing lol
The level of details on this ship is impressive and yet there's still some very questionable choices design wise. I'm not a fan of the exterior, the curves are too broken and the overall appearance is too flat and uninteresting imho. It looks awesome from the top-rear view though. On the inside, I hate what they did to reduce the entrance size of the cargo ramp and the kitchen area is atrocious, one of the worst designed spaces I have ever seen in SC. It should be cozy, livable and usable by 3 crew members, instead it looks empty, uninviting and very boring. The center table is rage inducing and the copy pasted kitchen module on both sides is just lazy and I'm happy that we agree on that.
I understand what you mean, I haven't looked up what the mk1 of this ship looked like but I'm guessing simular. But yeah it not being able to fit an ursa is a very big miss and a redesign of the kitchen I feel should be done on its next upgrade path
@asideoftoastgames agreed. The original MKI looked like a modern space shuttle and in some aspects...better. I would recommend you take a look at the CL model, the cargo variant. It has less space for amenities and somehow this works better for the kitchen. Don't get me wrong, it feels more claustrophobic on the CL but design wise makes much better sense. I also prefer the CL cargo design, especially the small rail/ramp that connects the cargo and the rest of the ship, but it loses the very cool glass panel that shows the fuel tank.
So, we gonna mention the asinine job they did with the rear hatch? It’s intentionally narrowed so as to not fit an Ursa and incidentally makes it far harder to load cargo efficiently into. Also the internal space is needlessly claustrophobic and the sitting space has you staring at a wall instead of across from your crew mates. Toilet next to sleeping heads! Turret on bottom instead of top is crucial to guaranteeing the design is not functional enough to make much difference or be enjoyed. Zeus, great concept, evil execution… oh, and an airlock entrance without an airlock… nice job, CIG! Ain’t nothin’ you can’t ruin.
There are things I'd have done differently to make the ship more user friendly. I did mention at the beginning of the video that it couldn't fit an ursa. Feel that should be a basic requirement of any ship that can hold a decent amount of cargo. The airlock could have an air shield that's just not in yet. We don't know for sure but not every ship can be a perfect execution or the universe would eventually be unbalanced as every ship could do everything. Overall it's a good ship, just has one or two things here and there. My biggest gripe is the kitchen. I'd have liked to have a meal with the full crew
@ yeah I think you did a good review. I definitely agree strongly on the kitchen, especially with the ES model. Also agree with you on that strange non bed where shelves block a player from fitting. The suit lockers would definitely be a better option for escape pods as they’re central to the ship and more easily accessible from the bridge. To be honest, aside from the MR (which isn’t in yet) I don’t really see the value in three crew. Pilot and copilot cover all the duties on either the ES or CL. MR has the secondary remote turret on top, so that makes sense.
@@ozramblue117 i kinda feel what you mean, 3 crew is a little excessive unless there trying to force a dedicated engineer for multi screw, which I get but some ships because of their size the co-pilot could handle engineering duties in most situations....I'm guessing
