"When the servers don't crash" if when they do, it's horrible and dreadful, it's like : "Hey today I wanna flip a coin ! What will it be CIG ?" (Yes, not everyone rely on this game for their mood aye ? Just a small joke)
I love how Drake ships just work so well together, Caterpillar + Vultures is just perfection and the Cutty Black even has painting on the floor perfectly fitting 2 dragonflies. No other manufacturer has that level of harmony between their ships.
315P even better - tractor beam accessible from pilot seat and its facing foreward out in front of the nose - so, no having to maneuver to work behind the ship
@@lights4bre890 on paper perhaps, but the 315Ps tractorbeam isnt gimballed and you cant enter its remote turret. And there are cargo guards so you cant just yank the cargo from the front.
Yeah it was a surprise hit for me - i was not super excited about the ship based tractor beams beforehand but seeing how much they add to the capability of the ships that have them i think they are an amazing addition to the game :)
Caterpillar for life!!! Who doesn't want one? I can't wait to have all its features completed, like cockpit detaching and door lifts for ease of loading cargo.
I love how open ended this game is, I love the way you can come up with crazy ways of doing things like this and even though the profits arent as good as other things playing a game like this with friends makes it more fun :)
That's exactly what my org did last night. We setup a chop shop in d eep space. However half the ships towed in were invisible to most of us which caused obvious problems :)
Great Team work. I have been a viewer of your channel for over a year. I finally jumped into Star Citizen partly due to your vids. I am enjoying the experience greatly. Thanks for your vids and God Bles you.
Great fun watching the video, just goes to show what an efficient crew can do. It kinda feels like the vultures are eating whats left of a carcus just like the bird irl, makes so much sense naming it the vulture.
Just starting playing, brother got me into. Loved your gunship pvp videos, and these fun looks at the PTU. Gotta say I'm hooked on getting to merc work and salvaging. I'll stay tuned for sure!!!!! Thanks for the content
It'd be really awesome to get an operation large enough to tackle Wake of Destruction in this manner, a couple of Cats, a half dozen Vultures and some defenders!
Kate your videos are so calming to watch. Your step by step narration is fantastic and often helps me figure things out in my end too that I may have previously not known about. Keep up the great work!
It's also as munch effective as a reclaimer and needs less crew (3 for this method compared to 4-5 in order to not have the cargo guy going full sweat from the elevator to the cargo bay in the reclaimer) it also costs munch less in game, about 7 millions for 2 Vultures and a caterpillar compared to 15 millions for the reclaimer so twice the price, just need some cohesion but it's very cool
Awesome video! Proof that a couple good friends working together can make anything that much better! Thank you for this! Oh! And VERY interesting at the end for the question about salvage after stripping and destruction!
It was super cool to see someone actually use ship tractor beams for salvaging with a crew! I might start watching more of these types of videos as I get more into salvaging.
Fantastic work processing the Kite. This is the same technique we use on salvage missions except on a smaller scale with a Cutlass and a vulture. Thanks for posting.
I don't think I'd have picked a loop like salvage and recovery left to my own devices, but seeing the emergent gameplay from it just makes me excited. Great video!
this is a great way to overcome the vulture's relatively small cargo space, I love these kinds of big cargo operations ^^ will be trying out salvage for the first time today :D
I love just going off deep into space to salvage and mine in peace. Looking forward to the new RSI mining ship which is the bridge between the MOLE and the Aurora. On board refinery. 500+ SCU of external storage. Just go off into space on your own with a bag full of food and water and never return to society until your cargo is full!
Great video! Very enjoyable to watch your gameplay. Had a chance to test C1 tractor beam and the location above ramp works quite well for moving cargo in and out
Always enjoyed your narrative gameplay content. Lots of fun watching you try to figure out whatever is creating different issues. See ya'll in the verse!
It's really cool to see these game mechanics actually functioning in-game! Can't wait to see more and more content as team labour resources are freed up from Squadron 42!
Really enjoying these longer logistics videos. I recently brought my former Elite wingmate over to Star Citizen and we both enjoy the industrial gameplay. These videos are giving us some great inspiration for multi-ship salvaging. Excellent stuff!
Amazing content, I really like the cinimatic footage and music combined with how you let us all know what's happening, it really helps me who is new to the game, thanks.
The Catepillar is one of my favourite ships in SC. The capability for a full crew to enjoy countless ours together for a multitude of varying tasks... It's what I imagine SC gameplay to encapsule :) Keep up the great videos!
The Caterpillar needs a tractor beam on a rail above each side of the cargo bays. That way you can position over each bay as needed. Just hit alt 1,2,3,4 to reposition.
Absolutely love the industrial aspect of this game and its great to see a caterpillar used to such great effect with the vultures be great to have a flock of vultures feeding the caterpillar. Great video as always
Just dropped back from the Vulture Munching video and so excited for the upcoming changes. Thanks for showing chill industrial gameplay while I am away from my primary PC.
I absolutely love the salvaging in this game. Once munching is in things are going to be even better with a swarm of vultures literally picking a ship apart
New watcher here. Great video, I liked the coordination between the Vultures and the use of the Cata tractor beam. Makes me want to take my first crack at salvage to experience the loop.
That was so cool to see, who would've thought that we could do salvaging so much easier with teamwork like that. Watching all the way through made me want to choose salvaging as a profession in Star Citizen. Thanks so much for the video :) Cheers!
Your group salvage videos are what got me interested to try Star Citizen, at a time when Elite was not really impressing me any more. Seeing you come back to this gameplay and see the new mechanics and new bugs is fun~
With the narration, I love that this felt like a docu-series kinda TV show. An episode of a professional salvage operation show, that just so happens to be in space. Real and chill and interesting seeing how it works and issues that arise. It's like Space-Changing Rooms.
I always appreciate some good Caterpillar gameplay, makes me even more excited for when the Cat is fully online with a gold pass. Thank you for the video, and I hope you continue to have a good time salvaging with the crew.
Fantastic event! Thank you so much for sharing! ♥ That looks so fun! I love the Cat. I just wish the tractor beam was at the end of the wing and not tucked in so far.
I spent yesterday essentially as a deckhand tractoring cargo onboard a C2, and it was a great time. It was like actually co-ordinating cargo recovery from wreckages.
Have been salvaging like that with a Cutlass Black for the last days and i think the inbuilt tractor beam of the caterpillar rocks - so I might upgrade to the caterpillat soon! Great camera angles while landing!
I’m sure you get this a lot but thank you for all the content you make for Star Citizen. I’ve been a backer for a while but I don’t play a lot and usually only come back to check out new features or ships. I love the content you put out and the narrative style of your videos. It helps keep me updated so I know when to poke my head back in game and keeps me entertained to boot. Keep up the great work!
Whats great about the video is that it shows how SC allows players to approach missions in different ways. A caterpillar + 2 vultures is one way and i sure many others could find other combinations that best suit their skills and ships available to their party members
Great Video! Really makes me want to find a few people to do something similar together Salvaging is definitely one of my favorite game loops at the moment. Very relaxing
10:55 It just occurred to me - all they'd need to do to fix the awkward angle of the cat's tractor beam relative to the holds is to, firstly, show a wireframe overlay of the room your tractor'd item has entered along with the boxes in that room, and secondly allow the beam to bend around walls for the cargo hold of their attached ship (explaining it with some sort of 'beam repeater' in the cargo hold). I think quite a few ships will need this, and I feel it's more practical than needing someone in the holds with a handheld tractor to get the crates sorted.
*This* is the kind of video that should be featured frontpage AND pinned on RSI's site for new players that find themselves being persistent with heir sessions in the Verse. A prime example of us seasoned pilots reminding new Citizens, "there's plenty to do & the option of making your own fun with what's available.". Beautiful crew coordination throughout this event.
industrial gameplay is chill & theraputic, when the servers don't crash
I mean I would like to salvage but my vulture doesn't want to equip it's salvage heads
"When the servers don't crash" if when they do, it's horrible and dreadful, it's like : "Hey today I wanna flip a coin ! What will it be CIG ?"
(Yes, not everyone rely on this game for their mood aye ? Just a small joke)
I would agree with this, and I wish devs would spend more time on server stability rather than on events
I love how Drake ships just work so well together, Caterpillar + Vultures is just perfection and the Cutty Black even has painting on the floor perfectly fitting 2 dragonflies. No other manufacturer has that level of harmony between their ships.
While the Nomad and RAFT are my favorite ships, Drake is my favorite manufacturer by more than a parsec
Then what was the problem with the boxes is this a consistent issue?
The Nomad would be pretty convenient to pair with the Vulture for smaller operations, as its tractor beam is operable from the pilot seat.
oooh yeah i didnt know that! i can see that being an excellent choice!
315P even better - tractor beam accessible from pilot seat and its facing foreward out in front of the nose - so, no having to maneuver to work behind the ship
@@lights4bre890 on paper perhaps, but the 315Ps tractorbeam isnt gimballed and you cant enter its remote turret. And there are cargo guards so you cant just yank the cargo from the front.
@@lights4bre890yes, but Nomad can put the Stuff from the Vulture or the Cargo right on their own 24 SCU grid without leaving the Cockpit. 😊
@@CathrineMacNielwhat scu storage?
Having multiple vultures on a job just looks right. Actually looks like a true mining job like in real life. Very therapeutic video.
Agreed
The ship tractor beams have made a massive difference to the effectiveness of group salvage operations like this. Great video.
Yeah it was a surprise hit for me - i was not super excited about the ship based tractor beams beforehand but seeing how much they add to the capability of the ships that have them i think they are an amazing addition to the game :)
@@Citizen_Kate First I've seen of them being used in game. Great job and thanks for the tips!
Dang, this really makes me want to join a salvage crew
Thanks for highlighting the bugs and some good collaborative play!
The synergy between the Vulture and Cat is really nice. More manufacturers need that
Caterpillar for life!!! Who doesn't want one? I can't wait to have all its features completed, like cockpit detaching and door lifts for ease of loading cargo.
When Multicrew Gameplay is finished and the Modules also, I would take it immediately. 😁
Or being able to fit snap 32SCU boxes.
I honestly don't think the cockpit will ever detach
Team work making the dream work!! Loved watching the problem solving and as a brand new player one of my fav parts of the game. Great vid
Love watching these kinds of operations you guys put together, makes me want to be involved in a large scale salvage operation myself.
I love how open ended this game is, I love the way you can come up with crazy ways of doing things like this and even though the profits arent as good as other things playing a game like this with friends makes it more fun :)
I think this may pair well with SRV to bring ships to a deadspace location were the stripping and salvage is done.
That's exactly what my org did last night. We setup a chop shop in d eep space. However half the ships towed in were invisible to most of us which caused obvious problems :)
Looking to do exactly this when dragging Hammerheads out of the restricted area it seems a shame to waste so much salvage material.
shipyards or junkyards
Great Team work. I have been a viewer of your channel for over a year. I finally jumped into Star Citizen partly due to your vids. I am enjoying the experience greatly. Thanks for your vids and God Bles you.
Great fun watching the video, just goes to show what an efficient crew can do. It kinda feels like the vultures are eating whats left of a carcus just like the bird irl, makes so much sense naming it the vulture.
haha yes the vulture was certainly named appropriately :D

haha yes that sounds like it would be a lot of fun! :)
@@Citizen_Kate wonder how it will go in pyro, with solar flare and such
@@Citizen_Kate I would love to see it and Skunkworks has the logistics to pull it off!
Has anyone tried towing the Wake ships away for safer salvage?
Kate your videos are so calming to watch. Your step by step narration is fantastic and often helps me figure things out in my end too that I may have previously not known about. Keep up the great work!
We are Caterpillar people! Always love seeing them in videos.
Great video! This is what I hope will be the best way of salvaging in the future! Love the workflow. Keep up the great videos
The Vulture + Caterpillar is so much cooler than a Reclaimer! Thanks for giving us a peak into this chill gameplay loop.
It's also as munch effective as a reclaimer and needs less crew (3 for this method compared to 4-5 in order to not have the cargo guy going full sweat from the elevator to the cargo bay in the reclaimer) it also costs munch less in game, about 7 millions for 2 Vultures and a caterpillar compared to 15 millions for the reclaimer so twice the price, just need some cohesion but it's very cool

That shot of the caterpillar coming in to Area 18 gave late night trucker vibes and it’s something to behold. Good luck in the give away everyone!
I love just going off deep into space to salvage and mine in peace. Looking forward to the new RSI mining ship which is the bridge between the MOLE and the Aurora. On board refinery. 500+ SCU of external storage.
Just go off into space on your own with a bag full of food and water and never return to society until your cargo is full!
Hey Citizen Kate, love how you present the dialog within your videos. Seen a few of them, excited to seen what's next. Keep-m coming.
That's a real nice showcase of what is possible, especially the part where you swapped out the salvage heads!
Great video! Very enjoyable to watch your gameplay. Had a chance to test C1 tractor beam and the location above ramp works quite well for moving cargo in and out
Always enjoyed your narrative gameplay content. Lots of fun watching you try to figure out whatever is creating different issues.
See ya'll in the verse!
A pretty cool concept. I’m glad your tractor beams were working. I couldn’t get mine to work at all recently
It's really cool to see these game mechanics actually functioning in-game! Can't wait to see more and more content as team labour resources are freed up from Squadron 42!
Really enjoying these longer logistics videos. I recently brought my former Elite wingmate over to Star Citizen and we both enjoy the industrial gameplay. These videos are giving us some great inspiration for multi-ship salvaging. Excellent stuff!

My buddy got me into playing with the Vulture, and I have to say I'm loving it very much. Great vid by the way.
The Catepillar is one of my favourite ships in SC. The capability for a full crew to enjoy countless ours together for a multitude of varying tasks... It's what I imagine SC gameplay to encapsule :)
Keep up the great videos!
Salvage gameplay is something I haven't tried yet, but after watching you having such blast, I guess I'll have to try it out for myself!
The Caterpillar needs a tractor beam on a rail above each side of the cargo bays. That way you can position over each bay as needed. Just hit alt 1,2,3,4 to reposition.
i remember when you first started posting videos of SC, i'm glad that you're still putting out SC content!
Group salvage gameplay loop is really all coming together now. Good stuff!
Absolutely love the industrial aspect of this game and its great to see a caterpillar used to such great effect with the vultures be great to have a flock of vultures feeding the caterpillar. Great video as always
Looks like you folks had fun doing this vid! Love watching!
Just dropped back from the Vulture Munching video and so excited for the upcoming changes. Thanks for showing chill industrial gameplay while I am away from my primary PC.
I always love how you show how good this game can and will be once it's complete. Thanks again!
looks relaxing to do that kind of salvage gameplay when everything works and theres no game-breaking bugs
I absolutely love the salvaging in this game. Once munching is in things are going to be even better with a swarm of vultures literally picking a ship apart
New watcher here. Great video, I liked the coordination between the Vultures and the use of the Cata tractor beam. Makes me want to take my first crack at salvage to experience the loop.
Got absolutely hooked recently and these videos really help to decide what path to take in the verse!
That was so cool to see, who would've thought that we could do salvaging so much easier with teamwork like that. Watching all the way through made me want to choose salvaging as a profession in Star Citizen. Thanks so much for the video :) Cheers!
Now that they have determined how big cargo boxes are _(other than stacks of 1 SCU ones)_ many ships need to be redesigned to fit them.
Great video absolutely love the caterpillar, you had a decent efficient set-up going there.
Great showcase of game play! I look forward to your next video. You are always finding something new to try. Keep it up!
Always nice to see your chill video's (like the bike runs around planets or the industrial ones). It highlights the relaxing game star citizen can be
Really enjoyed watching you guys work together, Great video as always.
Your group salvage videos are what got me interested to try Star Citizen, at a time when Elite was not really impressing me any more. Seeing you come back to this gameplay and see the new mechanics and new bugs is fun~
Excellent demonstration of teamwork and how Star Citizen really gets the importance of immersion. Also.. Team caterpillar, I'm on board!
Sounds like you all had fun, Salvaging/Cargo handling is so much fun in a group!
That looked like fun! Going to need to see about doing this with some friends who would really appreciate this kind of activity!
Great video! I didn't think of salvaging ships from non-salvage mission :D I bought a Caterpillar during this IAE, now I want to try that myself.
With the narration, I love that this felt like a docu-series kinda TV show. An episode of a professional salvage operation show, that just so happens to be in space. Real and chill and interesting seeing how it works and issues that arise. It's like Space-Changing Rooms.
I'm a big fan of the Caterpillar! Joining up with a couple of Vultures looks like it worked out pretty well.
I always appreciate some good Caterpillar gameplay, makes me even more excited for when the Cat is fully online with a gold pass. Thank you for the video, and I hope you continue to have a good time salvaging with the crew.
Thanks! I've always liked the Black Kite mission but salvaging her is such an awesome idea for group play! Thank you for that!
Again, another great video on salvaging fun. keep up the good work. Looking forward to more beam play in the future.
Love your videos! They're always well mixed with commentary and actual gameplay.
I have to say I love seeing this game play. I am getting back into the game and it has been a blast. Please keep this going.
So amazing to see that salvage gameplay is getting more fleshed out!
Fantastic event! Thank you so much for sharing! ♥ That looks so fun! I love the Cat. I just wish the tractor beam was at the end of the wing and not tucked in so far.
What weird bug, but at least it didn't completely stop the operation. Great video as always!
Big fan of industrial and salvage gameplay. Thanks for the vid! I really enjoyed it:)
I really enjoy the down the earth game play from your video's, keep up the great work!
I spent yesterday essentially as a deckhand tractoring cargo onboard a C2, and it was a great time. It was like actually co-ordinating cargo recovery from wreckages.
Looks like you had a lot of fun. Seems like you found a good combination of ships there.
Really good seeing how salvage and the cargo refactor is amounting to a sum greater than its parts
I love this sort of combined gameplay loops! Keep up the great work on these videos!
And this one just proves, yet again: Drake Ship is Best Ship
I have to say im always supprised when i come back and see how far SC has come, you guys also make salvaging look more enjoyable than others haha
I still think salvaging is one of the most relaxing things you can do in this game. Thanks for the content Kate!
Your salvage gameplay is always a joy to watch!
The love for the caterpillar on this channel has compelled me to get one. Lol. Great ship.
Thank you Kate and CIG and I'm very excited for the Caterpillar modularity.. it has lots of potential! .. and the working doorlifts! :)
Would be cool to see you all doing a “Living aboard a reclaimer” series though.
Great video! Awesome to see the tractor beams progressing into the game.
Have been salvaging like that with a Cutlass Black for the last days and i think the inbuilt tractor beam of the caterpillar rocks - so I might upgrade to the caterpillat soon! Great camera angles while landing!
I'm a big fan of salvage ops, So I'm excited for more of your salvage videos. I need to do it again myself, It's been a while.
I’m sure you get this a lot but thank you for all the content you make for Star Citizen. I’ve been a backer for a while but I don’t play a lot and usually only come back to check out new features or ships. I love the content you put out and the narrative style of your videos.

I really enjoy getting to see your gameplay and how sc looks with a focused team!!
Amazing as always! I would love to see another Reclaimer operation video in the future too :D
Gotta admit the caterpillar is growing on me, but for now I am happy with my smaller ship ventures. Great vid
Excellent display of the use of the new tractor beams. Can't wait until I get an opportunity to try it out myself!
Y'all sound like you are having so much fun. I wish I could find a crew like yours and do this every day.
Whats great about the video is that it shows how SC allows players to approach missions in different ways. A caterpillar + 2 vultures is one way and i sure many others could find other combinations that best suit their skills and ships available to their party members
This is the type of content I would like to do a lot more with my friends. Its so amazing how far this game is coming along!

The game feels like it’s becoming more and more complete with each feature. Keep up the good content it’s great.
I love the added bonus of watching a salvage vid and getting a mission tutorial at the same time 😁
Nice teamwork! It is the mean reason I like your contents. Thanks for the video!
