Welcome to 10 (+5) Minutes More or Less ship review for the RSI ZEUS MK II ES! In game version 3.24.2.
An Exploration.. ship?
This is using update 3.24.2, the Zeus MK II ES was priced at $135 War bond or $150 Store credit, expect that price to increase.
This is the ship you get when you pledge for this ship or if you get it in game.
This review is of the STOCK ship.
This review is just my OPINION.
These reviews are typically around 10 minutes more or less if you don't count the intro with ship showcase and the end screens.
The bigger the ship, the bigger the review.

I've become under the weather so hopefully I sound ok. You're all awesome, thanks for watching!
sound great get well soon™
I was curious why you sounded a bit different, thought it was a new mic or something.
Perfectly clear delivery of the voice, just sounds a tiny bit different
You sound good but please take care of yourself admiral!
Same! My kids had something and now I do too!😭
Everyone under the weather with the same shit... AGAIN. gj anyways haha
I can't wait for the Zeus MR, hope it comes out soon. Thanks for the videos
It looks very good and fits the needs of a "Daily Driver" very well.
I wish the Spirit could get such a refined interior with living Space and a second exit.
Thank you for your well composed videos. :)
Awesome review! So many highlights that I haven't seen anywhere else, such as the VTOLs and fuel port. Really appreciate that.
I was also thinking the Spirit had an advantage with escape pod bunk beds (I wonder how many people would hit the "eject" button instead of the "alarm off" button?), but again, looks like the Zeus has it all!
Awesome Video allready so hyped on the MR review
Fantastic overview of the Zeus my friend. Really appreciate you
I figure that since the Ursa was designed for the Connie, CIG didn’t want the Zeus to carry the same.
If you want to try small bunk/escape pods, check out the Retaliator.
I own a Corsair, so went for the MR as I didn’t own a QD ship/bounty hunter ship.. hmm, if CIG made more ships nameable.. I reserve Razor Crest for the MR..
CCU'ed my DUR to the ZEUS ES. Loving how it turned out
How do you do that
Great review bro. Not all exploration ships have something that pops out like a big radar array, etc. BUT... unlike it's other variants (and some other exploration ships) the ES has the bigger radar than it's counter parts. 315p same, Rambler same, Mustang Beta same and hell Corsair same. 3 distinct attributes (baseline) for exploration ships are longer range, better radar and better living accommodations.
Terrapin too, and Polaris, have bigger than standard radars
@@thenecrolept indeed but those are special ships. Terrapin with a dedicated scanning array and Polaris with a giant command center. But the ships I mentioned don't really have much going on for them on the surface.
The Zeus series will certainly have a big following
12:08 lmao 😂.
Great review, I'm trying to decide which variant I like more still, but I do like the homey space of the ES.
The RSI Zeus series is a game changer
ES have S3 radar, but thats not implemented in game yet
It also has larger hydrogen and quantum fuel tanks.
There it is! Beautiful ship and nicely well rounded, good stuff!
I'd go for the CL but based in my recent experience in PTU, filling up all those 128 SCUs can be problematic. I know they're totally different beasts but I think I'll go back to my dear RAFT.
It looks like the Zeus series of ships will set the new standard when it comes to ship quality
I think it's the first ship to be completely made by the Montreal studio. There are some experienced game devs up there
Thanks EL! Hope you feel better soon. I'm looking forward to getting my new Zues ES. I'm still going to keep my C1 as they have stated all along that it will be more nimble...It will be my small cargo. The ES will be long distance travel, exploring in Pyro possibly...bunkers now and again. It can carry the smaller ground vehicles as well. Too bad they didn't make the cargo doors wider...
Who knows what will come out next. It might get melted eventually like many of my others. 🙂
Very cool looking and no bathroom issues this time. I ended up going with the cl version though. But still waiting on the Mr.
The Zeus ships are very pretty and a great sign the new team that worked on it has some pretty slick skills. Hope they give the old ships some love eventually.
I know people are drooling about the paper stats on the CL, but I think the other two are going to be better for their roles. I've seen how fiddly loading the CL 100% seems to be in a few other videos, so just having an explorer or patrol ship with actual cargo will be quite useful in comparison. The ES and MR are the ones I'm most interested in, personally.
Cargo isn’t my thing. Even if it was just the window and bench, I’d take it over the CL. I don’t care about stats. I want to enjoy walking and interacting with my ship!
The extra shield, s3 radar and s3 fuel tank have me leaning toward the ES over the CL. A maxed out cargo grid in the CL is too tight of a squeeze for me. My only complaint is that the kitchen area looks so spartan that it almost comes across as still being partially still in whitebox. Gorgeous ship.
Gotta fill it up yourself!
Get some spices to fill up the little shelves and it’ll look good
RSI is becoming the "Cram King" the apollo will be interesting
The MR is the one I am waiting for.
Man, these ships look so sleek. The interiors are nice.
Horror bathroom! Don't do it Even! It'll getcha!
I went with the Clipper version, excited to get a chance to fly her. If they do come out with a passenger version (rumor) I may CCU my Spirit E1 to that also.
I think that when the new radars come in, it will have more of its professional usage defined. As it stands, its default components for QT drive and fuel tank already differentiate it into a more "exploration" type, focusing on longer travel... which, with the fuel changes, makes it certainly a longer range craft.
Here's hoping this is the design direction they go with when they revamp the Constellation series.
I hope they add food and comfort buffs soon so the residential ship areas become useful.
Thanks for banging these out so quickly even with the sickness. Rest up cause next week going to be busy, will you be multi streaming the con?
Great Review and you sound fine.
the suit lockers seem like escape bod aswell
it also labeled emergency exit and you can close the door inside the suit locker
Waiting for them to make the MR
I want it to have retractable skylights. And floodlamps beside all the entrances, as well as fold away headlights.
Also hope they have a plan for the airlock, so it doesn't decompress the ship when atmospherics are implemented.
The ES does have a size 3 radar (not physical used yet) as opposed to the size 2 of the other versions. That and the extra shield are the main differentiators for the “exploration” role. I think it also has more quantum fuel, but I’m not sure.
Thinking of getting this one between the 2. With pyro coming id rather have more fuel than cargo. I already have cargo ships. To be fair I also already have exploration ships but none this small.
Exactly what I’m thinking. And I don’t even have a cargo ship
And I have none this big (cutter rambler)
Wow the skybox looks a lot better in whatever build this is. Actual black space seems like
Yeah they updated the skybox again and it looks fantastic.
I am into Exploration not into cargo, however exploration ships need cargo space for vehicles, too...
As for exploration value, what is expected would be living space (as given), efficient fuel (H2 and QT) use, excpetional scanners and ability to be self sufficient (food prep/repair capabilities/ground vehicle transport). These would be my basic expectations.
Great Review! I do admit the Zeus has me disappointed the more I look at it, even though I really appreciate how smart and compact the design is as there are allot of ships purely made for the look but the Zeus is certainly how can we cram things into a ship as much as possible! In doing so though it kind of fails on paper and in practice, while not a badly designed ship the ES as you mentioned does not stand out in any way for an 'explorer'. Making it a nice daily driver for a single or 2 pilots, decently armed and defended but nothing really stands out and its decently fast and not too sluggish. But your going to have to suck it in if you have crew also using the main hall way giving it a very freelancer feel but the side rooms are nice.
For the CL I don't like what they did with the cargo area, it seems pretty difficult to load and is not very flexible, to get every bit CRAMMED into the ship its wall to ceiling with smaller boxes to make it look great on paper but the Freelancer max and event the corsair is much easier to load with a hand tractor beam then trying to tetris in every square inch. I think they went a bit too far trying to make the ship look a bit better on paper at the expense of making the small space more of an encombance. You can say what you want about the C1 spirit but you can slide in your two large boxes or combinations there of pretty darn quick. Its no longer just the 'amount' of cargo it's also the flexibility of the cargo and the Zeus gives up some of that to get bigger numbers.
Im cool with that ,you can promote us a turtle pet adoplion too ! Winner get both the ship and a little almost immortal guy ;)
Thank you for the vid :)
The usefulness of the ship seems like a great all arounder. I am not a fan of the generic space triangle though.
And jesus you are fast on the tricker. Didnt you just upload a video about the Zeus cl?!
I hope they add some food/water machines or something to exploration ships. Otherwise, I assume this has a significantly bigger fuel tank than the cargo variant?
You are going have to change the title to 15 minutes or less LOL but a great review
Wherein EvenLease reviews this variant like the last variant, but differently!
The ES is cool but I keep coming back to the fact that this is a game without exploration gameplay mechanics or progression and only a single system.
What a beautiful ship
It is a ship built around a size 3 radar, why does everyone overlook this?
Thanks for letting me know. I’ll add it to my list for my next look at it.
Because it’s not usable in game so it’s hard to account for it.
@@asog88 The size of the radar to the size of this ship suggests it is the ace card of this vehicle's role/design, whether it's usable in the game yet or not.
@@bmc8246 no. I’m pretty sure the ship’s big pazazz is the bench in the hab and the extra window in the kitchen 😏
only down side is the claiming time
Nice review. I have mixed feelings about it, and I wonder if the ES would be better than the MR. 16 cargo. From the review it looks small on the inside. Does it feel smaller? Does one of the stations look reset to be a scanner for exploring? Thanks for the demo Phaithless STAR-447Y-ZRJ2
What is that armor set? that looks really cool :D
This ship is gorgeous. What vehicles can it carry?
Can carry a ROC and anything smaller than that.
curious how the sales compare with the es and cl
So, I assume this one doesn't have the remotely controlled tractor beam? Is there anything for that co-pilot to do then?
No there isn’t, they are just there to assist in power management and flight if the pilot leaves the seat.
Would components that close together spell disaster if hit by any weapon but especially AoE weapons?
Very big potential but I’ve yet to see a ship with components not grouped up or in the same room
Wasn't supposed to be 10000 qt fuel?
Can this thing carry a medical Ursa?
What is the QT range on this?
35 Centimeters
Wait, they put all the components in one room at the BACK of the ship? Yeah have fun trying to defend against pirates. lol
They are spread out from the cockpit, engineering room and the back of the ship.
First, to leave a like!
Doesn't ES stand for Essential and not for Exploration??
Yes, but the Essential is RSI's version of an explorer. Same as the Aurora ES.
2:48 “10 rounds each” what? If we’re talking ammo count I easily 65 rounds each without robbing power from anything else except the quantum drive
When I was in the pilot seat it only gave me 10 rounds in each guns capacitors, new balancing today? I’ll check again.
@@EvenLease44 Today when I hopped in it was at 65. yesterday when I flying it I only had 10 if I remember. I could be wrong, but I do remember it being much lower than today! As you said in your video. Stats are bound to change during PTU! Specially for weapons right now.
@@EvenLease44 mine is only 10 now. I think it was a bug where the main guns were using the ammo for the turret or something
@@Starrshade mine did the opposite, I think it’s reading the turret gun ammo
@@norske_ow3440 I'll have to check that later today. You could be right! It could be bugged reading the turret instead of the Pilot. Will look out for the IC report!
turtle, turtle, turtle please
It's a bit of a shame that the significantly smaller cargo space compared to the CL can only be justified as a balancing decision and is not also reflected in the interior. The sofa and the something larger kitchen are a little disappointing, I would have liked a little more for an Explorer...
I agree 100%
this is 100% the reason i got the CL over the ES... you mean to say i have to give up nearly 100 SCU for a bench and some shelves? And even then, why is the bench not in the kitchen to make it more of a communal space, use the extra space in the sleeping area to make it a bit more roomy, maybe even more comfy beds. I just really struggle with understanding why they made the interior the way it is
@@thabombaa you are giving up cargo space for an extra shield, twice as much fuel, slightly higher speed, and a stronger radar. But it still doesn’t feel like a fair trade yet
Well... it's not going to replace my 400i or 600i, for sure. The interior looks passable, but nowhere near that of Origin ships. Also, I think the hallway is too dark. It doesn't need to be hospital white, but as it is it's more depressing than inspiring. Wonder how it compares to things like the Freelancer DUR and the 400i.
Also, while stock is important, and if you feel specs are important, it would be nice to have specs instead of guestimates. So "double size-4 omnisky laser cannons" tells me more than a certain number. It tells me I might install two M6A's. Also for the quantum drive, the type and the size is important. Though with the Zeus, I would expect size two all the way.
If there was a Zeus Mk I available. That, I'd grab. It doesn't need to do anything or be the best at anything. It can be bigger, slower, more primitive, but it does need to be that museum piece galore.
That’s what I love about their ship design. RSI feels sterile and that’s their thing. Origin has the best ships for a civilian to live in!
First❤
Please keep the way u do the videos as you did on your last video. Those camera moves makes me dizzy and cant really see how big or not are the spaces. But still a good video tho
i wish the dps was a bit higher otherwise its very nice
If you want dps buy a military ship.
It's always funny to me how everyone wants their ships to be combat ships that can do anything.
Don't get me wrong, i totally understand that Wish but it doesn't make a lot of sense. 😅
Personally, I hope they reduce the DPS of many civilian ships so that military ships become more important again.
@@Seeras I feel ya. A large amount of people want every ship to have enough DPS to solo an Idris. While being able to carry the same amount of cargo as a C2 with a fuel tank to go across the system 50 times over without needing to refuel. Oh and enough Hull HP to crash into a planet and destroy the planet instead of the ship.
Jokes aside I like that ships have their downs and ups. If I want combat I have my F8, F7A, and my Scorpius. If I want hauling I'll grab my C2. If I want to just fly around and look at pretty sites I'll grab something with large QT tanks. Fighter or non-fighter. I get wanting to have a ship that can do all and do it well. But we will just get a Meta where everyone will use that ship and it will just be boring. I agree though. Make Military ships more important again!
It’s perfect. They NEED to nerf the fuck out do the Corsair (even with the co pilot nerf) and Connie.
This feels strong when compared to medium ships because it has so much shield and because with a co pilot you out dps most mediums
@@SeerasI agree. I also hope they simply reduce the size of pilot controlled guns for multi crew ships and add tose sizes to co pilot/ turrets
@@asog88 imo the corsair is great for pve ! but pvp wise it should be a bit tweaked, not sure how exactly, yes the dps is a tad high (4k i think) if they could get it down to 2.8-3 tops with copilot that would make things better. after i got my corsair every other ship is just meh for erts or assasinations, either good damage no cargo or cargo but no damage at all ( neither survivability)
Too bad theres nothing to explore.
