Star Citizen PTU (3.18) - Salvage Gameplay with the Drake Vulture

Testing the new Salvage Gameplay with the Drake Vulture on a 890j Wrack
_____________________________More Information below________________________________
First of all, sorry for the hard cut during the elevator at the August Dunlow Spaceport in Orison at the end. But after so many tries to get a long play session which always ended in 30k, I finally arrived at a spaceport after salvaging a bit. So I decided to just begin where it ended before and cut it together... unfortunately I couldn´t sell the salavaged material at the TDD as there is no 30k recovery in the PTU right now, but I could see at the TDD what I´ve salvaged before and that a box is worth ~7700 aUEC - so I salvaged for 53.900 aUEC (7 boxes), max load for the Vulture are 12 boxes.
Hope you enjoy the video anyways ;)

"Salvage - Hull Scraping
The first implementation of Salvage into the persistent universe, which includes both hull stripping as well as repair. This includes both performing hull stripping and repairs by hand, as well as hull stripping using the systems aboard the Drake Vulture and Aegis Reclaimer. Using highly advanced compression technology, these tools can break down ship and vehicle exteriors, converting them into Recycled Material Composite (RMC), and store them in the canisters attached. The player then has the option to either use this material to repair their ship using the FPS multi-tool by filling in damaged areas or they can sell this material as a commodity. This feature also has the addition of many new, discoverable derelict ships in space around places like asteroid belts with many more common smaller ships and much rarer larger ships for players to salvage.
Vehicle Hull Scraping
Salvaging while in a vehicle is a mode like mining. To be able to scrape the hull of a newly "found" wreck, the target must have it's shields turned off (Indicator in UI will informs about shield state). To enter and exit Salvage mode hit 'm' (Default keybind). Players can right click to cycle through attached Beams in the sub item slot. By Left Clicking players can activate and deactivate the scraper beam. There are 2 modes players can be in while salvaging by pressing 'G' (Default keybind), Converging and Fixed Mode. Fixed mode acts like weapons and points the salvage beams directly where the player aims the ship while Converging mode lets players gimbal the beams independently. Lefl alt + Mouse wheel will move converging point while Left alt + Right click will switch between vertical and horizontal converging mode. Players will need to manually remove filled storage boxes from the ship's salvaging area using a using a handheld tractor beam or by converting it into RMC canisters for repairing."

Weird design that the solo salvager requires you walk downstairs and manually move the boxes into storage.

[@45Shameek]

I love Drake ships ^^

[@peterhamilton7723]

..nice landing...

[@DANNYtheBOY11]

Too bad that being solo with that laser sound, you've easily got asleep after few boxes....

[@trombiki]

you need choose vulture and sell in left panel xD

[@grim-vale]

this was zen as hell

[@pAnko1337]

Jeah it is also when playing. I'm looking forward to the live version if you don't have to constantly fear a 30k like currently in the PTU ;)

[@soul___pilot]

For me the video is only availible in 720p

[@pAnko1337]

In YT Studio it´s already in 1080p, but 4k needs a bit longer these days on youtube, I don´t know why...
Sorry for that, hope it will show up in better quality soon!

[@soul___pilot]

@@pAnko1337 Ok no problem. Thx for clarification o7

[@StarCitizenGameplay]

No need to ping to find the wrecks.

[@mimo-bine]

Wait you couldn’t sell anything?

[@hexamirofficial]

Yeah I filled up my Vulture after about 40 minutes of scraping a Carrack and then it turns out none of my salvage could be sold. Probably just a 3.18 wave 1 bug that they hopefully fix soon.

[@Noone-we9vb]

can you enter and explore 800i?

[@pAnko1337]

I havn´t tried it as the current PTU version is very unstable and you only get a short amount of time to play before a 30k happens. But it looked empty inside, you can see through the ship from the backside...

[@DaveFrags]

You indeed can and you can also fly them lol… weird and will be fixed but aye, you can
